Chapter 520: 521: What does having a good eye mean?

“How dare you!” Shi Qianying shouted at Gu Junzhu, “I am the Second Young Lady of the Shi family, and my brother-in-law is the Young Master of the Ye family! Who do you think you are? How dare you act so outrageously? Release me now, or I assure you, you will regret it!”

Gu Junzhu merely smiled faintly, his gaze sweeping over her face with an air of indifference.

He put his arm around Ye Xingbei’s shoulder, “Beibei, let’s go out, we will only be a hindrance to Yu Nuo if we stay and watch.”

Ye Xingbei nodded, he walked over to Yu Nuo and said, “Yu Nuo, repay her in the exact manner she bullied you. I’ll be waiting outside, do not disappoint me!”

Yu Nuo’s eyes appeared red as they welled-up with tears. His fists clenched tight, his body trembling violently.

Ye Xingbei gave him a pat on the shoulder, and while his body shuddered intensely, he did not evade.

Ye Xingbei then gently squeezed his arm, “Yu Nuo, don’t be afraid. Give your best, Xueno and I will be outside accompanying you.”

Patting her arm, Ye Xingbei and Gu Junzhu led their people and exited the premises.

Only Shi Qianying and Yu Nuo were left in the basement.

Shi Qianying stared wide-eyed at Yu Nuo, her expression fierce, “Don’t come any closer! I warn you, if you dare touch me, my brother and my brother-in-law will never let you off. They’ll sell you off as a gigolo, making you unable to live or die!”

Upon hearing the word “gigolo”, Yu Nuo’s eyelashes fluttered and his eyes widened, becoming so red they seemed ready to drip blood.

Staring at Shi Qianying’s it right into her hideous face, in that moment, his mind didn’t differentiate between superior and inferior, right and wrong, there was only the various sufferings that Shi Qianying had inflicted upon him.

His body trembled violently from the torturous memories, and he slowly walked towards Shi Qianying, step by step.

Shi Qianying struggled furiously but couldn’t escape from the iron chain locking her wrists. She screeched, “Yu Nuo, get away, scram! You are worthless, lower than even a beast. Dare touch a single finger of mine, and I swear you’ll regret being born into this world.”

Yu Nuo ignored her screams, his eyes fixated on her. His hand reached into the charcoal basin, grabbing a red, hot iron.

“No! Don’t…” Shi Qianying’s face turned pale with fright, she shook her head drastically, “Yu Nuo, let me go! You can’t do this to me! I am the Second Young Lady of the Shi family; Your owner. Dare treat your owner like this and you’ll suffer punishments worse than hell, you…”

Before she got to finish her threat, Yu Nuo pressed the red, hot iron onto her chest, holding it there tightly.

Shi Qianying’s gruesome screams echoed clearly outside the basement.

Hearing Shi Qianying’s screams, Ye Xingbei did not panic. On the contrary, he heaved a sigh of relief. Holding onto Gu Junzhu’s sleeve, he whispered, “I was really worried Yu Nuo might not dare to take action against Shi Qianying. I was reading a psychology book yesterday, and in cases like Yu Nuo, the best therapy is to lay hands on their abusers. Let them understand their abusers aren’t invincible and disentangle their mental blocks. Aiding them with systematic therapy might facilitate his healing.”

Gu Junzhu smiled and said, “Well, congratulations then, it seems your judgement is not half bad.”

“Hm?” Ye Xingbei was confused, “What judgement being not bad?”

“Your judgement in selecting bodyguards,” Gu Junzhu smirked, “Your bodyguard is not too bad, he hasn’t rotted beyond redemption yet.”

“…” Ye Xingbei looked at him earnestly, “Fifth Lord of Gu, do you even know how to compliment someone?”
