Cheng Jie was already waiting there by the time they reached.
Ye Yuwei could feel Gu Juexi's aura change before they entered the private room. She was familiar with this aura—it was the aura that Gu Juexi had at the hearing.
He would take Cheng Jie down, no matter the cost.
They entered the private room and saw Cheng Jie sitting there, facing the door.
Their gazes locked and the atmosphere became tense.
Gu Juexi's hand on Ye Yuwei's waist tightened and his entire body stiffened as Cheng Jie smiled charmingly, standing up to welcome them. "I almost thought you wouldn't make it."
Ye Yuwei's face was a blank mask. She was not smiling—not even diplomatically, and her main focus was on the man's deep blue eyes.
They were different.
Gu Juexi controlled his murderous aura and sat down beside Ye Yuwei without shaking Cheng Jie's hand. Cheng Jie sat back down, indifferent.
