Faced with Gu Yao’s question, the person in charge replied truthfully, “The surveillance cameras there are being repaired, so the rooms there aren’t open to the public, but…”
Before the person in charge could finish, Gu Yao pulled Li Xing’er and ran out, shouting, “Qiao Xi was being followed. That man must be up to no good. We have to save her quickly! I want to beat that stinky man to death!”
“But… Miss Qiao is very safe. On the other hand, it’s that man who’ll end up very miserable.” The person in charge looked at Gu Yao’s back and said what was left unsaid.
Why was Young Master Gu so anxious? It was not as if he did not know Miss Qiao well. The person who should be worried was the man in the same room as Miss Qiao!
If Gu Yao went over a little later, it would have been difficult for that man to survive. Since Young Master Gu was going over now, Miss Qiao might restrain herself a little and spare that man’s life. It would not be good if someone died in Blue Dream Pavilion.
On the other hand, Gu Yao used all his strength to run to the corridor where the surveillance cameras had disappeared. He searched the private rooms one by one and finally kicked open the last private room. However, when he saw the scene in the private room, he was instantly stunned.
The anxious expression on Gu Yao’s face froze instantly, and his eyes were filled with disbelief. At this moment in the private room, Qiao Xi was holding a knife to the man’s neck. Butler Liu, who was at the side, was tied up like a dumpling. His face was bruised and swollen, and his original appearance could no longer be seen. He was leaning against the wall and trembling. He could not even speak clearly. “Save… Save me.”
He blinked. Why was this different from what he had expected? Wasn’t Qiao Xi in danger? Why was this man the one getting beaten up?
10 minutes ago, Qiao Xi had sighed helplessly. “I’m a very weak person. I don’t like to use force, but you’ve really angered me.”
Butler Liu was terrified to the point where snot and tears flowed down his face. He was the one who was tied up, and he was the one who was beaten up. What right did Qiao Xi have to say that she was angry? No matter how angry she was, she had already vented her anger, so she should be appeased by now.
“I’ve always wanted to be a weak lady, so I never hit or scold anyone outside. I just want to be a weak little girl. Why is it so difficult?! Why do you have to force me to do all this?”
Butler Liu’s face was filled with sorrow. At this moment, he was extremely regretful.
Qiao Xi still had the cheek to say that she was weak? Even a boxing champion might not be as powerful as her. With a single punch, he felt his nose bone break!
Qiao Xi stood up and lowered her eyes to look at the trembling Butler Liu. She smiled at him, picked up the knife on the floor, and pressed it against Butler Liu’s neck.
At this moment, someone suddenly kicked the door open. Qiao Xi frowned. She did not expect someone to come to such a remote place. She looked up coldly and met Gu Yao’s anxious eyes.
“Qiao Xi! I’ll…” Before Gu Yao could finish, he swallowed the words in his mouth. The person who should be asking for help was that man!
Gu Yao was dumbfounded. At this moment, he could not help but doubt his life.
Qiao Xi smiled awkwardly. Why was Gu Yao here? She was holding a knife! This would ruin her image! Would anyone believe her if she said that this man wanted to kill her?
Qiao Xi was at a loss and hurriedly pressed the hidden button. The room instantly lit up. She hurriedly walked forward and explained, “Gu Yao, let me explain…”
“Looks like I came for nothing,” Gu Yao muttered in a low voice. “I was thinking too much. It’s impossible for you to be in danger. It’s that man who should be worried!”
Qiao Xi hurriedly hid the knife in her hand behind her back with an embarrassed expression.
At this moment, Butler Liu, who had been beaten black and blue, seemed to have found his savior. His eyes were filled with hope, but before he could ask for help, a wave of hurried footsteps suddenly came from outside the door. Li Xing’er rushed in with a group of bodyguards and looked for Qiao Xi in a panic. She shouted, “Xi Xi! Xi Xi! Don’t be afraid! With me around, nobody will dare to hurt you!”
As soon as Li Xing’er finished speaking, her entire body suddenly froze. She looked at Qiao Xi, then at Butler Liu, who was tied up on the sofa. She really did not understand who tied this man up and even beat him up.
She sighed in her heart that Gu Yao was too rash. Even if this man had ill intentions, he could not beat him up like this! He could have just tied him up and handed him to the police. How should she explain this to the police, then?!
Then, Li Xing’er instructed the bodyguards, “Carry this man out. How dare he bully my good friend? He’s really audacious!”
