However, in the eyes of An Bian, from the time Gu Benhen had held Ye Nuo's hand to the time they had pushed him aside, they had all been intentionally flirting and swearing in front of him.

A splash of red appeared on the surface of Ye Nuo's white dress. Looking at the vibrant color, Ye Nuo regretted wearing this dress.

Her pretty eyebrows twitched as she stared coldly at An Pi Liang. She said with a stern voice, "Miss An, you're going too far, aren't you?"

"No matter how outrageous I may be, it is not as outrageous as you being in the bed of someone else's fiancé." When she said that …

Seeing that there were already people watching, Ye Nuo didn't want to argue with her. She had been made a joke out of nothing.

She turned around to look at Gu Ben Kun, only to see him casually folding his arms, as if he had no intentions of standing up for her.

Ye Nuo smiled, but for some reason, she had a very strange feeling in her heart. It was as if she was sad, as if she was at a loss, making her very uncomfortable.

Just then, Yun Zhou stepped forward and said politely, "Miss Ye, why don't you come down with me to change?"

Yennefer didn't know this young master of the Cloud Prefecture, but he had heard of his reputation. Just like his name, he was gentle and refined.

It was unlikely that he would take advantage of her.

"Alright, thank you Young Master Yun."

As they walked out of the hall, Ye Nuo heaved a long sigh of relief. If An Pi had caused a ruckus just now, none of them would have gotten the upper hand at the party.

She turned to look at Yun Prefecture and asked, "Young Master Yun, do you have nothing else to ask?"

One had to know that her current reputation was Gu Benkun's mistress. Just the word 'mistress' was enough for the upper class to let their imaginations run wild. After all, no one would put such a thing on the table.

But Gu Benkun had done just that!

They even did it very thoroughly, even though they had already agreed on this …

"If Miss Ye wants to speak first, I do have something to do." Yun Zhou smiled elegantly, "I wonder if I can become Miss Ye's friend?"

"..." Friend? Ye Nuo was stunned. She didn't expect the Cloud Prefecture to ask this question. After a while, she replied, "Of course."

Of course, she wouldn't reject the friend that delivered herself to her doorstep. She just didn't know if this' friend 'had any other intentions.

"The lounge is right in front. I won't be going over. Go ahead, Miss Ye."

Yun Zhou gracefully stopped outside the resting room.

Entering the lounge, Yennefer found a spare set of clothes and changed into a brand-new white shirt and suit pants. Although they didn't match, it was still better than a wet gown that had been splashed with red wine.

After changing his clothes, Yun Zhou was still waiting outside the door.

"Thank you." She thanked him politely, but felt that her words were a bit lacking. Before she could continue, she heard Yun Prefecture's gentle voice, "Miss Ye, you're too kind."

When he returned to the party, the crowd had already dispersed. Yeno said goodbye to Yun Zhou and didn't bother looking for Gu Ben Kun. He just took a taxi home.

After getting off the taxi, there was still a long way to go. The street lights were dim, giving people a sense of insecurity.

She subconsciously held the bag tightly in her hands.

At this moment, the sound of footsteps came from behind her. Before she could even react, her mouth was covered and her hands were grabbed. She was dragged towards the green belts on both sides of the road.

"Ugh …" Ugh! Let me go! "

Yennefer bit the hand that covered her mouth with all his might. The man let go of her hand in pain, and she took the chance to cry for help.

He didn't know if it was because her cry for help was too sincere, but a figure had actually appeared.

"Let her go."

This is... Gu Benkun's voice? But why was he here?

For a moment, Yennefer's mind was in a mess.

"You want to let go just like that? I advise you not to meddle in the affairs of a hero saving a beauty, or else — "The few bandits threatened, but in reality, they had already begun to waver upon seeing someone.

Gu Benkun sneered, "You must have been hired by that young miss of the An clan. The Gu clan can give you more than the An clan, and they can't do anything about hurting us." Gu Benhen took out a cheque from his pocket and continued, "The money in this cheque will be taken to buy wine for our brothers to drink."

The gangsters looked at each other, then accepted the check.

Gu Benkun brushed his sleeves and said, "The young miss of the An clan is indeed a spoiled child. The only way to find a kidnapper is to find these motley hooligans."

"Also, just give them some money next time. They are not desperate criminals."

"Oh." Ye Nuo replied indifferently, then looked up at Gu Benhen, "You wouldn't be so kind as to give them a cheque, right?"

Yennefer's eyes lit up like the stars in the sky. "There are very few people in this world who can get your cheque, let alone the few of them. At that time, as long as you talk to a few banks, you'll be like a turtle in a jar."

Gu Ben Kun's eyes showed a hint of approval. He opened the door and said, "Get in."

Ye Nuo was furious at the thought of An Bianliang pouring his red wine at the party and Gu Benkun's cold attitude, but he remembered that he had just saved his life, so he didn't put on airs and got in the car.

"Are you still blaming me for not protecting you?" he asked casually.

"Nope." Even though Ye Nuo had said something, everyone could tell that she was angry.

"I thought you'd take her away in a better way." Gu Benhen paused for a moment before continuing, "I didn't expect that you would just leave with that kid from the Yun family. Is he even as handsome as me?" These last words were said with a hint of ridicule.

Gu Benhen brought Ye Nuo home, and Ye Nuo watched through the window as Gu Benkun left.

She leaned her back against the wall and let out a deep breath. She didn't know what had happened to her either. It was clearly a show she was having with Gu Ben Kun, and all of this was for revenge.

However …

Why did she care if he helped her or not? Shaking her head, she didn't dare to think any further.

When she got up the next morning, her phone's message was bombarded with messages. When she opened it, all of them had to do with her attempted kidnapping yesterday.

On the other hand, Madam An had threatened her. If the Gu family didn't want to drop the headlines, then she wouldn't be able to continue living in this place.

She looked at it indifferently, then left a screenshot of the text message for her card.

It was a good habit.

She arrived at the office on time, but just as she sat down in her office, she heard someone calling her name from outside the office.

After which, under the obstruction of an assistant, An Belian walked up to her.

"Miss Ye, I want to talk to you."

Ye Nuo and An Biliang were the only ones left in the office. She leaned back in her boss' chair and lazily asked, "What does Miss An want to talk about with me?"

"I know it was wrong to kidnap you yesterday, but can you let the Gu family get rid of the news of this matter?" Because of this, the market for the An family is in turmoil. "

"Oh, Miss An is from the upper class. She might not understand the rules." Yennefer stroked his new nails. "You have to have the attitude of begging someone."

"You!" A hint of humiliation flashed across his face. "Don't go too far!"

"Miss An, you have to figure out one thing. Who was the one that was being excessive? You sent people to kidnap me and I didn't call the police to let you eat prison food. I'm already giving some face to someone."

Ye Nuo said coldly.

"Besides, you're the one who's begging me."

"Ye Nuo, I won't beg you. One day, Gu Ben Kun will be mine, and the Gu family will be mine as well. When that happens, don't blame me for being ruthless and making you beg for death!" A trace of maliciousness flashed across his eyes.

"Oh." Ye Nuo didn't take her words to heart, but kindly picked up the phone on the table and let her take a look at the page, "I've already recorded everything that I've said just now. If Miss An can hold it back, then who knows how much the An family's stock market will drop."

"Miss An, why aren't you crying now?"

"Yeno!" An Bi was so cold that he was on the verge of going insane. On the spot, he assumed a posture as though he was ready to fight with Yeno.

Yennefer stood up and called out the assistant's name. The assistant immediately trotted over.

"See the guests out."

She reached out her hand. "Miss An, take care. I won't send you off."

The assistant carefully looked at the ugly expression on An Biliang's face and said, "Miss An, please."

An Biliang threw the bag in his hand onto the assistant's face, "What the hell is this? Even you dare to make faces at me!" Do you even know your own identity? "

Although the assistant looked embarrassed, he did not retort. As he watched the two walk out of the office, Ye Nuo had a playful look in her eyes.

Ah, it's still too early for you to get angry from embarrassment if it's just like this …

In the end, he had to repay those who owed him.
