Ji Qingqing cleared her throat and whispered, “They’re bullying me.”
The two appeared to be very intimate to the onlookers based on the way they whisper to each other.
Gu Shaoyu didn’t have the patience to continue staying quiet. His eyes were filled with anger as he looked at Lu Lixing and said, “Brother Xing don’t be fooled by this woman. She is a fickle woman! This woman wanted to become famous, so she asked me to be her backer. After I kicked her out, but soon after that, she found another parvenu. Did you know, just yesterday, she and her parvenu managed to spend half a million yuan in ten minutes at the mall!”
The Gu Family and the Lu Family had some ties with each other. The Gu Family also had some shares in Tianyu Entertainment. Otherwise, Gu Shaoyu would’ve never casually threatened to block Ji Qingqing’s career in the entertainment industry.
Lu Lixing raised his head and looked coldly at Gu Shaoyu, “Parvenu?”

She used ruthless methods to get what she wanted. I was together with her for a long time, but I failed to see her true nature. She is arrogant, selfish, fake, and greedy. A woman like her…oh…”
While Gu Shaoyu spoke, Lu Lixing handed the bouquet of roses to Ji Qingqing. He narrowed his eyes as he approached Gu Shaoyu step by step. Then, he punched Gu Shaoyu on the face with his fist.
Gu Shaoyu was caught off guard by the sudden punch, so he fell to the ground with a grunt. A bruise had already begun to form on his face.
Shen Weiwei rushed up to help him. Gu Shaoyu’s head was lowered and there was a complex expression on his face.
Ji Qingqing wished she could cheer and applaud Lu Lixing for beating Gu Shaoyu to the ground.
Lu Lixing tugged his tie and looked down at Gu Shaoyu. The expression on his face was dark as he said, “Gu Shaoyu, you are a man. As her ex-boyfriend, you have no qualifications to assess and belittle your ex-girlfriend in front of other people.”
“Brother Xing, I’m not lying. Ji Qingqing’s character is just as I described!” Gu Shaoyu stubbornly refused to repent on his mistake.
“Regardless of what Qingqing had done before, can you still call yourself a man after you raised your hand against a woman?” Lu Lixing looked at him and calmly said, “From now on, I don’t want to hear you bad-mouthing about Qingqing again. You had spread rumors that Ji Qingqing was being kept by you before, and I hope you can properly settle those rumors properly. I don’t want anyone to think that Ji Qingqing was being kept by you before, do you understand?”
Gu Shaoyu held his breath and did not speak.
“Do you understand?!”
Gu Shaoyu gritted his teeth and stubbornly said, “…I will never admit that she was my girlfriend!”
Lu Lixing kicked the belt on the ground and in a ridiculing tone, he said, “If you think you’re the one being kept by her, then I have no problem with you telling them that.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe expression on Gu Shaoyu’s face sank. He seemed to be greatly insulted by his words, “I only received a belt from her!”
“Have you gifted her anything?”
Gu Shaoyu remained silent.
“Your silence meant that you never gifted her anything. She spent five digits on a gift for you. Didn’t you say before that whoever spent the most in a relationship is the backer while the one who spent the least in a relationship is the person being kept? Since she spent the most, then isn’t she the backer?”
Gu Shaoyu gritted his teeth, “I understand now.”
Lu Lixing immediately asked, “What do you understand?”
Gu Shaoyu emphasized each word as he said, “Ji Qingqing and I were just male and female friends. She was not a woman that I kept.”
Lu Lixing turned around and looked at Deputy Director Li. Deputy Director Li appeared to be somewhat uneasy. “I heard everything that Qingqing had just said. I already told you not to intervene on the matter between Qingqing and Shen Weiwei because Vice President Chen was going to take care of it. Were my instructions meaningless to you?”
“No, no, no…it’s not like that. President Lu, I’m doing this for the benefit of the company. After all, if this matter gets out of hand, then it’ll negatively impact the company.”
