"That guy, huh…"
At the mention of Gu Xuan, Yang Qingxi recalled that villain—one whose ending had been nearly as miserable as her own.
Lover gone.
Family destroyed.
Wealth, reputation, life—stripped away one by one.
And in the end, even his sister had been taken from him, tortured until her mind shattered, forced to live a fate worse than death.
Snapping out of her thoughts, she asked, "What did he come for?"
"He begged Song Jinyu for a chance to see Ye Chen."
"As expected." Yang Qingxi's tone was calm. "How did it go?"
"Gu Xuan lost control. If the officers hadn't intervened, he would've rushed forward to kill Ye Chen."
"You mean get beaten up by him?"
"…Something like that." Su Mo paused. "Either way, Gu Xuan was furious. Ye Chen taunted him just as much. Gu Xuan threatened to make his life worse than death before leaving. He also told Song Jinyu that Ye Chen is a mercenary—though the organization's name is still unknown."
