Du Ruqing coldly glanced at Lu Xinyao, not having the slightest impulse to acknowledge her. He didn't even spare Lu Juyan a glance as he prepared to walk outside. Her pride did not allow her to lower her head, so she would rather go out than beg for mercy.
Gu Li, who was standing behind Du Liqing, also turned his body. He lifted his leg and followed her out with large strides.
As the two passed by Lu Juyan, he extended his hand once again to block their path. He said coldly, "Halt!"
The atmosphere froze again as Lu Juyan stared fixedly at Du Liqing, while Du Ruqing only cast his gaze at the door, not intending to meet anyone in the slightest.
Gu Li shot a cold glance at Lu Juyan. Seeing that Du Liqing didn't make a move, Gu Li stood behind him without a single word. He leaned his body to the side and leaned against the wall.
Outside the door, the two lackeys who were standing there were muttering to themselves for a while before realizing that the lights in the room were on. They immediately knocked on the door, intending to check if Du Liqing and the man were there.
"What are you guys waiting for? Go into the bathroom first!" Lu Juyan frowned and glanced at Gu Li and Lu Xinyao. Without saying anything further, he pulled one of them with each hand in an attempt to push them into the bathroom.
Lu Xinyao was about to say something when she noticed Lu Juyan's warning. She pouted her lips in dissatisfaction and unwillingly walked towards the bathroom.
Gu Li, who was at the side, simply frowned. He glanced at Du Liqing and walked straight inside, not willing to let Lu Juyan touch him too much.
Lu Juyan, who had chased the two of them to the bathroom, subconsciously looked away as he returned to his original spot. Without saying anything further, he put his arm around her shoulders, forcing her head to lean on his shoulder.
He lowered his head and whispered next to Du Yun's ear, "Cooperate with me in a while."
A wave of hot air pervaded Du Yun's ears, causing her cheeks to turn red. When she touched Lu Juyan's firm arms, an inexplicable sense of peace of mind assaulted her once again, allowing her to naturally lean into Lu Juyan's arms.
In the next second, Lu Juyan pressed the lock and opened the door. He looked at the two people outside the door and tightened his grip on Du Ruqing's shoulder.
This coincidentally made Du Ruqing bury his head in Lu Juyan's arms. He was secretly delighted in his heart, but his face revealed traces of loathing towards the two as he coldly asked, "What are you doing?"
The two of them were frightened by Lu Juyan's presence. They were stunned for a moment, but then turned back to smiling. His line of sight was focused on the girl in his embrace, but it was obscured by her hair.
"Sir, have you seen a very beautiful woman and a very cold man?"
A lackey was just about to patrol Du Liqing's body when he raised his head and faced Lu Juyan's warning gaze. His legs unconsciously started trembling. He opened his mouth and asked hesitantly.
The smile on the man's face was also shaky, and the chills to his back made him subconsciously shift his gaze away, unwilling to meet Lu Juyan's gaze. He suddenly had the urge to escape, but if he couldn't complete the mission …
The pain on his buttocks and calves gave him courage. He gritted his teeth and pretended to be calm as he smiled. He rubbed his hands from time to time to ease the panic and retreat in his heart.
Many people rushed over when they saw this scene and became aware of Lu Juyan's existence. Frowning, he patted the other man and pulled him aside to understand the situation.
"No, get lost!" Lu Juyan frowned in displeasure when he saw so many people and purposefully displayed his feelings of impatience towards them.
Du Liqing obediently placed her body in Lu Juyan's embrace, her hand also consciously resting on his waist. In his heart, he was constantly hoping that those people would leave quickly so that he could escape.
The group of people suddenly displayed sinister expressions towards Lu Juyan, vaguely feeling that the surrounding air had become a bit colder.
The leader of the group walked over and saw his subordinates waiting at the entrance. He didn't want to walk forward, so he suddenly kicked the lackeys in front of him.
"What's the matter?" The leader looked at his cowering underlings and asked them loudly. He didn't notice the murderous look in Lu Juyan's eyes.
When the leader felt a cold shiver down his spine, he immediately shifted his gaze, and a large portion of his swagger disappeared.
With a forced smile, he lowered his head and said, "Mr Lu, I am really sorry. My subordinate was blind enough to not recognize Mount Tai and has offended you!"
"Scram!" Lu Juyan repeated this word again, not willing to interact too much with these people in order to avoid being detected by Du Liqing.
Lu Juyan consciously held Du Ruqing in his arms and lightly caressed her hair, blocking the line of sight of the group of people in front of him.
"Yes, yes, yes. We will leave now." The leader promised Lu Juyan and pulled his subordinates away, afraid that they would lose their lives if they stayed any longer.
Inside the bathroom, Lu Xinyao and Gu Li were standing on opposite sides of the room. The door had long since been locked, so neither of them knew what was going on outside.
Gu Li lazily leaned against the clean glass wall and crossed his arms in front of his chest. She didn't want to stare at Lu Xin Yao either, so she closed her eyes. The darkness before him made his other senses more sensitive, making it easy to detect what the other person was doing.
Standing opposite of Gu Li, Lu Xin Yao looked at his grave and stern face. Her heart was filled with joy, and she couldn't help but want to get closer to him. She wanted to greedily touch him.
"Sir, wake up. Are you sleeping here?" Lu Xinyao carefully walked over to Gu Li's side and pulled down the clothes that were already exposed to the skin. She used her hand to touch Gu Li's shoulder, wanting to constantly massage it.
Just as Lu Xin Yao was about to touch Gu Li's hand, he grabbed her wrist. He opened his eyes and coldly asked: "What are you doing?"
He had a vigilant look in his eyes, and his expression was as cold as ever. His calm appearance was extremely attractive.
This caused Lu Xinyao to be unable to stop herself from smiling. Her fingertips gently touched Gu Li's wrist. He deliberately leaned against his body and twisted his body, trying to arouse the flames of desire within him.
"Hey, sir, I'm feeling a little dizzy. Why don't you hug me tight?" Lu Xin Yao didn't care about what the two outside the bathroom saw. At this moment, she only wanted the man in front of her to satisfy her.
She purposely placed an empty bracelet on Gu Li's waist, pretending to be weak. Every single movement she made revealed her seductive courage …
"Please have some self-respect!" Gu Li remained unmoved. He even had the impulse to throw Lu Xin Yao out. Unwillingly shaking off Lu Xin Yao's hand, he used all his strength to push her away.
