Guan Xi frowned.
She felt that Tang Yu was trying to insinuate something.
2Yes, Xiao Jiuyan was indeed her fake husband.
2But he was not 'inhumane'. That was just a nasty rumor perpetuated by people who fear him.
2It was killing her not to defend Xiao Jiuyan further.
2However, this wasn't the time.
2Guan Xi pursed her lips and stood extremely close to Tang Yu. Her voice was extremely cold when she spoke.
2"It does not matter whether he's my real husband or not. I don't care. I married him on behalf of Gu Wenxi so he's now my husband on paper. I have to protect him."
2Her voice, which had always been soft and sweet, could now physically cut someone with how cold and menacing it sounded.
2The atmosphere in the cleaning club turned dangerous. Everyone was frozen to the spot, waiting to see what would happen next.
2Tang Yue and Hero, who were standing on the side, exchanged glances.
2"Big Brother and Sister Xixi are so scary. Should we intervene?" Tang Yue asked Hero.
2Hero shook his head. "No, you cannot stop them if they decide to fight."
2Tang Yue hummed in agreement. "That's true. No one can really get in between those two..."
2As Tang Yu looked at Guan Xi, the corners of his lips curved up into a cold sneer.
2"You want to protect him? How are you planning on that? Hmm? With your current identity as a stunt double? As the Gu family's eldest daughter, or..."
2He paused before continuing in a mocking tone, "With the identity of the cleaner queen that you abandoned? Hmm?"
2Guan Xi's fists trembled as she tried to restrain herself.
2Tang Yu continued, "If you were still the Queen, yes, you can protect him. After all, the Queen used to be the number one cleaner on the leader board. No one was willing to go up against her. But you've given up the throne, haven't you? So, tell me, without that power, how are you going to protect him?"
2Tang Yu's tone might be mocking but he also genuinely wanted to know the answer to his question.
2He wanted to know her plans.
2Because he was right.
2How would she protect her husband when she has already retired?
2It was just nonsense.
The atmosphere continued to grow tenser. Tang Yue and Hero looked at Guan Xi who was quietly staring down at the floor, and then at Tang Yu whose face was a mask of indifference and disdain.
2They were nervously anticipating what was going to happen next.
2Surely they wouldn't just go at each other's throats, right?"
2"Tang Yu!"
2Suddenly, Guan Xi called out Tang Yu's name.
With lightning fast movement, she jumped, her right fist swinging towards Tang Yu.
2"Brother, be careful," Tang Yue cried out in alarm.
2Her punch was packed powerfully and if it had hit Tang Yu's face, he would've been seriously injured. Luckily for Tang Yu, he was prepared. Equally quick, he leaned back and twisted into an arc, barely dodging her punch.
2When her punch missed, Guan Xi's eyes turned sharper and she raised her left hand for another punch.
2This punch was extremely fast. It was even heavier and faster than the previous one and it actually made a sound as it tore through the air.
2Tang Yu frowned. When he saw Guan Xi's punch coming, he stretched out his hand and blocked it, her fist landing on his with a bang.
2The fight began.
2In the small space of the cleaning club, the two of them started dueling. Guan Xi's movements were swift and fierce, but they were as graceful as that of a dancer's. Tang Yu's movements were crisp and neat, and the speed of his punch was getting faster and faster.
