Gu Si’s words slapped him in the face.
A trace of coldness appeared in Huo Zhi’s eyes. He looked like he did not intend to speak rationally with him as he reached out to snatch the lighter and gun from Gu Si’s hands.
Bai Sui stepped forward and shielded Gu Si.
Huo Zhi looked up. They exchanged glances.
Bai Sui looked at him expressionlessly. “Mr. Huo, please conduct yourself with dignity.”
Huo Zhi’s pupils constricted, as if he had not expected Bai Sui to dare to deter the person Old Master Bai hired for Gu Mang and Gu Si..
Bai Sui was taller than Huo Zhi. When he stood in front of him, he looked as imposing as Huo Zhi.
Bai Qingqing was still reverent towards Huo Zhi. Seeing Bai Sui rush forward, she was slightly worried for him.
However, as she looked at the two, she felt that their aura was evenly matched.
Pinching his fingers, Huo Zhi said in a low and cold tone, “Old Master Bai asked you guys to protect Gu Si and Gu Mang, not to stir up trouble.”
The bald man stepped forward and attempted to pull Bai Sui away.
Before he could come into contact with him, Jiangsui pressed down on the man’s shoulder and smiled with his head tilted. “Buddy, do you want to fight?”
On Gu Si’s side, everyone shifted their bodies such that they were facing Huo Zhi’s gang straight on. Now that both parties were in the middle of a confrontation, sparks were flying.
Gu Si looked towards Leng Xuan. Holding the gun, he tapped it a few times. “Ten seconds for you to scram.
Biting her lip, Leng Xuan looked as if she wanted to kill Gu Si.
“Ten.” Gu Si started counting down. “Nine.”
Old Master Leng could tell that Gu Si was not joking.
If they were not gone by the end of the countdown, Gu Si would shoot them.
“Leng Xuan…” Old Master Leng said. After calling her, he remained silent, his intentions written on his face.
He was signalling her to stand down.
“Seven.” Gu Si’s voice was very calm.
Leng Xuan closed her eyes and took a deep breath. After opening her eyes she walked towards the stairs. Old Master Leng and Leng Yun followed behind Leng Xuan.
Gu Si’s gun moved slowly, following Leng Xuan’s movements.
They walked down the stairs step by step. A layer of cold sweat formed on Leng Xuan’s back. She clenched her fists tightly.
Leng Yun glanced at Leng Xuan and whispered softly, “Elder, all of the Leng family’s fire engines are waiting outside.”
As long as the fire engines were present, Gu Si would not be able to cause much damage.
As she descended the last step, she took a deep breath and calmed herself down before asking, “Where is the Head Elder? When is he arriving?”
Suddenly, organized footsteps could be heard from outside.
Leng Xuan tilted her head and looked at the door, only to see the Head Elder walking in with a big group of people behind him.
With his hands behind his back, the Head Elder frowned as he smelled the intense foul scent in the air. Seeing the reflective liquid on the floor, he pursed his lips.
Gu Si’s assault had created quite a huge commotion. After hearing about it, he rushed to the hospital. He just so happened to bump into Jiangsui and the rest who were leaving the hospital.
His instincts had told him that something bad was going to happen, so he had instructed the chauffeur to follow them. He was right outside the Leng residence when he received Leng Yun’s message that Gu Si was about to burn down the Leng residence.
“Gu Si, what are you doing?” He walked towards Gu Si.
Gu Si remained silent. He still held his gun up, pointing it at Leng Xuan.
Now that the Head Elder was here, Leng Xuan felt completely relieved.
Furthermore, Huo Zhi was here too. Even if Gu Si knew that she was the culprit, what could he possibly do to her?
Leng Xuan looked arrogant again as usual. The smell of gasoline around her was extremely unpleasant. She said coldly, “Head Elder, I’ll go upstairs to change my clothes first.”
She turned around to go upstairs.
The Head Elder saw Gu Si place his finger on the trigger, pressing down on it slowly.
The Head Elder’s expression changed instantly. He called out to Leng Xuan, “Wait.”
A trace of panic could be heard in his voice as he did not manage to control his tone. Leng Xuan paused and looked at the Head Elder.
As she was drenched in gasoline, she was desperate to put anything else on. “Let’s talk after I change out of my clothes.”
The Head Elder glanced at Gu Si. Seeing that his finger had relaxed, his sharp and alert gaze also became more calm.
If he had not said something, Gu Si would have shot Leng Xuan.
Looking at Leng Xuan, the Head Elder said firmly, “Leave after we settle things here.”
“What is there to settle?” Leng Xuan frowned and said impatiently, “He trespassed on the Leng family’s property and created this mess. I want Gu Mang and Gu Si to compensate us!”
She slid her fingers across the gasoline on the floor.
Since the Head Elder was present, Leng Xuan was totally fearless and confident
