"You're not allowed to leave, you're not allowed to leave!"
The young girl grew anxious and she reached out to grab Gu Ruoyun's sleeve. However, before her hand could touch Gu Ruoyun's shoulder, the crimson-robed man beside her made his move.
Kick!
A leg planted itself firmly on the young girl's chest. Before the young girl could react, Qianbei Ye had kicked her away. He then spoke in a low and gloomy voice, causing the young girl to shiver violently.
"Scram!"
The young girl was so stunned that she even forgot about crying. Her large, bright eyes were filled with fear and she trembled as she lay on the icy-cold ground.
"You two, even though my sister was in the wrong first, you shouldn't have attacked my little sister!" The guard saw the frightened look on his little sister's face and his heart throbbed with agony. He gradually became enraged, "Or shall I say that you are a man who only knows how to hit a woman?"
A deep hatred filled his eyes when he stared at Qianbei Ye.
Though this man was more beautiful than a woman, he had attacked a young girl unprovoked! He simply does not have the bearing of a gentleman, this person must be abnormal at heart!
"Touch her again and your sister might lose her arm next!"
Qianbei Ye's voice was monotonous and chilly as it slowly echoed through the streets.
If it was not for the fact that they were in the Red Lotus Territory and he has no intention of spilling blood in his father-in-law's territory, this little girl would have likely lost her hand on the spot! Why would he ever allow such a disgusting thing like her to try and touch Yun'er?
Forget about having a tender heart for the fairer sex or gentlemanly attitude to women! He does not have any of those qualities!
In this life, he would only feel tenderness towards Gu Ruoyun alone! Other women were no different from snakes, mice or ants in his eyes. Why should he be tender towards them?
"Let's go, Yun'er."
Qianbei Ye ignored the two as he returned to Gu Ruoyun's side. He then wrapped his hands around her and the gloomy look on his face was replaced by a magnificent smile.
"Xiao Ye, you can ignore these people. Why waste your time on them?"
In Gu Ruoyun's opinion, Qianbei Ye's earlier action was entirely a waste of time.
As long as she does not wish to be touched, nobody would have been able to touch the corner of her robes.
"She had come too close to you. I was afraid that her breath would infect you so I could not help but retaliate. Don't worry, I will pay more attention next time and not waste our energy on these sort of people."
As the couple slowly moved further and further away, the young girl finally burst into wailing sobs. She used her little fists to hammer the guard's chest as she cried.
"It's all your fault, it's all your fault! Didn't you say that no one would bully us anymore now that you're following Grand Lord Hong Lian? I was bullied yet you had not dared to say a thing! A useless person like you isn't fit to be my big brother."
The young girl's words were like a sharp sword which pierced deeply into his heart, tearing a deep gash which overflowed with blood.
All these years, he had pitied his little sister who had lost both parents at a young age so he had always spoiled her. Each time she was bullied, he would rush over and fight the bullies even if it was his sister who had been in the wrong!
Unfortunately, she has developed such an undisciplined and out of control character due to his years of indulgence and pampering.
"Xue'er, this is the Red Lotus Territory. Grand Lord won't allow anyone to cause trouble here. I was the one in the wrong. If the Grand Lord finds out about this, I will certainly be punished."
