Ge Xuan was rambling on in anger when a bowl was suddenly slammed on the table. It made a huge noise at once.
Bam!
Everyone there jolted in fright from the loud noise—except Si Yi, Ya Dang, Mo Sen, Lan Su, and Yun Yi. As for Ge Xuan and the group who came in with him, they were startled too.
Ge Xuan did not come back on his own. He was back with a group of friends. There were about three or four of them; one of them was a tall and robust foreigner while the rest were Country Z locals. These were friends he had made in school when he was abroad.
It was because he had heard from others that his father was getting married, so he rushed back with his bros as soon as he could.
While he was pointing fingers at Qin Yirou for marrying Ge Junjian because of his wealth and spewing insults, Yun Jian had slammed the bowl in her hand onto the table with a loud bang.
Needless to say, Ge Xuan had crossed Yun Jian’s line—her bottom line was Qin Yirou. If Ge Xuan had not insulted Qin Yirou, Yun Jian would not have done anything. The problem now was that he had made out Qin Yirou to be a woman who approached Ge Junjian for his money.
This was something Yun Jian could not tolerate.
As Ge Xuan and his friends were shocked, frozen from Yun Jian’s action, Yun Jian’s voice rang loud and cutting. “Say it again!”
There was an intimidation in her tone that scared at least Ge Xuan and his friends. When they snapped back to reality, Ge Xuan stared back at Yun Jian who had gotten up from the dining chair in feigned courage.
Gritting his teeth, he looked at Yun Jian in equal fierceness and asked, “Who are you? What does our family affair have to do with you?”
His parents’ divorce was a huge blow to him, so Ge Xuan had turned defiant and lived an unruly life overseas all these years. During his reckless years there, he had gotten to know a group of bros who acted like hooligans, so he had picked up a little flagrance in the way he spoke.
“I’m nobody and your family’s past or future has nothing to do with me either. Not that I’m interested in it,” Yun Jian replied.
She took a pause as her gaze took a sharp edge to it; there was an irresistible resolution in her piercing eyes.
“But the person you insulted just now is my mother! I don’t care about your family affairs but there’s no way I’ll let you insult my mother!” Yun Jian spoke with emphasis on her words, each syllable leaving her lips commanding submission.
Even Ge Junjian had felt like speaking up for Yun Jian. Others might not know it but he was well aware of the several identities Yun Jian carried currently. More importantly, she was the boss of the internationally famed Gu Sha Mercenaries!
How could the mother of Gu Sha Mercenaries’ boss and the top secret agent in the world, Slaying God, be someone in need of money?
“Hah! Who knows if that was an insult? Maybe your mother did approach my dad for money!” Ge Xuan resented Ge Junjian so much that he did not have any positive opinions regarding Yun Jian and Qin Yirou.
“Xuan’er, stop this nonsense! Xiao Jian will be your younger sister soon!” Ge Junjian could not help growling at his son. Ge Xuan did go over the line with what he had said.
