She told Ye Xingli and Zhi Foliu to go in first, and she stayed outside to take Gu Junzhu’s call.

"Ye Xiaobei, you’re getting bold, running so far without asking for leave from me, and without bringing a bodyguard!" Fifth Lord of Gu’s voice rang in Ye Xingbei’s ear, full of authority.

After finishing his work, he wanted to surprise Ye Xingbei, so he went to the dessert shop without letting her know.

It turned out Ye Xingbei wasn’t there.

The staff told him Ye Xingbei had gone out to eat with Ye Xingli.

He could track Ye Xingbei’s phone location on his phone and found out she had gone to the suburbs.

The key point is... no, body, guards!

Ye Xingbei walked a bit further away while holding her phone, "Aren’t I with Brother Li? Brother Li needs to pretend to be poor, how could I bring bodyguards and still pretend to be poor?"

"Couldn’t you have them follow you from a distance, just don’t let Zhi Foliu notice?" Gu Junzhu said, "Ye Xiaobei, I’m warning you, this is the first and only time, don’t risk your life like this again! Do you not realize what your current status is? The Gu Family is formidable, but so are the enemies of formidable people! If something happened to you, what would Xiao Shu and I do?"

Ye Xingbei was amused by him, "Wow, you really have no shame, bragging about yourself so smoothly!"

"I’m just being honest, can’t I be smooth?" Gu Junzhu was very serious, "Ye Xiaobei, stop joking around, be serious!"

"Okay, I got it," Ye Xingbei suppressed her laughter and became serious, "Don’t underestimate Brother Li; he’s had an elite education, he can protect me."

"Oh, come on now," Gu Junzhu chuckled, "That guy has a sweetheart, if something really happened, who do you think he would protect, you or his future wife? Hard to say."

"Go away, stop sowing discord," Ye Xingbei playfully chided, "In broad daylight, what could happen? Fifth Lord of Gu, don’t tell me, you’re so hated that someone would risk everything to hunt down your wife in broad daylight."

"Only ordinary people wouldn’t be envied; for someone as excellent as me, it’s normal for people to hate me!" Gu Junzhu said, "Stop arguing with me, stay put, I’ve already sent Xueno and Yu Nuo to pick you up."

"Oh... then let them come," Ye Xingbei said, "I guess Brother Li can’t pretend to be poor anymore. You won’t believe it, but we happened to run into Li Qi."

"Who did you run into?" Fifth Lord of Gu’s voice instantly rose by eight degrees.

"Li Qi!" Ye Xingbei didn’t notice the change in Fifth Lord of Gu’s tone and continued, "Do you know how unlucky I am today?"

She briefly explained what had just happened to Gu Junzhu, "Li Qi also knows my future sister-in-law, so I think Brother Li’s cover will end today. Once the ring issue is settled, I can watch the big reveal show."

"Li Qi knows your future sister-in-law?" Fifth Lord of Gu sensitively picked up on the key point, "Why does he know your sister-in-law?"

"I didn’t ask," Ye Xingbei said, "He seems quite familiar with her, even called her by a nickname, so they must be more than just ordinary acquaintances."

Gu Junzhu: "What’s your sister-in-law’s nickname?"

Ye Xingbei said: "Ah Fu... the ’Fu’ from ’leaving when things are done’ Fu."

Gu Junzhu: "What’s her full name?"

"Full name?" Ye Xingbei froze, "I forgot to ask."

Gu Junzhu: "... Can you be any more clueless?"
