The air suddenly fell silent.

Third Master LI found himself at a loss for words, realizing only now that the

office was not solely occupied by the boss of the Great Xia Escort Agency.

The man, dressed in a dark gray suit, his white shirt and tie impeccable, sat in a wheelchair, exuding an air of nobility.

Outsiders might not recognize Yu Xiheng, but Third Master LI, a well-known figure in the social circles of Sijiu, certainly did.

His throat felt dry as he stammered, “ShiYan, what are you doing here? Why didn’t you say anything? I didn’t even see you when I walked in. You… this…”

Yu Xiheng did not look up, his response indifferent, “There’s an optometry hospital across the street.”

Third Master LI, his face flushing with embarrassment, struggled to find the words to reply.

The crisp sound of a teacup placed on the table broke the awkward silence.

Yu Xiheng finally looked up. “I requested the escort service. It seems you have some objections.”

“No, no, not at all!” Cold sweat broke out on Third Master Ll’s back as he hurriedly spoke, “My mistake, Mr-Mr. Yu. I was unaware that the ‘Crossing the Demon Realm’ crew was your investment. I was misled by malicious gossip!”

“I’ll fire those who fed me this nonsense once I’m back. And the expenses for this escort mission will be covered by me, as an apology to Mr. Yu.”

Yu Xiheng glanced at the boss.

The boss understood and brought out the POS machine.

Third Master Ll’s expression changed, “This is…”

He had only meant to offer a polite gesture; was he actually expected to pay now?

Could it be that Yu Xiheng, a member of the Yu family, couldn’t afford this expense?

But a spoken word is not a sparrow; once it flies out, you can’t catch it. Third Master LI, swallowing his pride, asked, “How much is the total cost for the escort service?”

“Seven top guards from the Ace Agency,” the boss said with a smile. “Protecting for fifteen days, 500,000 a day, totaling 52.5 million.”

Third Master Ll’s vision darkened, “The Ace Agency?!”

Was a drama crew worth the protection of the Ace Agency’s top guards?

Had Yu Xiheng lost his mind?

Trembling, Third Master Ll’s pulled out his bank card, his heart bleeding.

“Thank you, Third Master LI, for your patronage,” the boss said, nodding. “For your generous contribution, I’ll upgrade you to a platinum member.” Third Master Ll’s’s face turned green.

He stormed out without looking back, not pausing for a second. The boss let out a long sigh of relief. “Mr. Yu is truly formidable.”

“Our lady says that being frugal is a fine tradition of the Great Xia. I am learning from her,” Yu Xiheng said with a slight smile.

The boss was speechless.

That was indeed being frugal.

At the expense of someone else’s household.

Wait, who was this lady?!

Outside.

“Why act arrogantly,” Third Master Ll’s muttered with extreme displeasure, spitting disdainfully. “A big man, yet handicapped, just because he’s a Yu. He’s not even as good as his own nephew, only daring to flaunt in front of me.” “Let’s see how you fare in the Yu family once the old Master Yu passes away!” But these words were only spoken behind Yu Xiheng’s back.

Regardless, Yu Xiheng was a legitimate son of the Yu family, and the LI family was far inferior. Without any real power within his own family, Third Master LI dared not confront Yu Xiheng openly.

Returning to the LI residence dejectedly, he found Gu Zhinan still in his room.ALL new 𝒄hapters 𝒐n n𝒐v(𝒆)lbin(.)com

Upon his arrival, she immediately approached him. “Third Master, about the

Great Xia Escort Agency—”

Before she could finish, her arm was harshly pushed away.

“Take your things and leave,” Third Master LI said angrily. “And don’t come back.”

Gu Zhinan’s eyes widened in shock. “Third Master?!”

“Can’t you understand me?” Third Master LI was impatient, forcibly pushing her towards the door. “I’ve given you enough in the past. It’d be wise not to be ungrateful.”

The additional expenditure of fifty million, along with the humiliation in front of Yu Xiheng, made him loathe Gu Zhinan.

Completely bewildered by what had transpired, Gu Zhinan found herself locked out by the butler.

Fortunately, the LI residence was well-secluded; otherwise, she would have been headline news immediately.

Trembling, she contacted her agent.

Sister Hua arrived in shock. “What happened? Did you upset Mr. LI? Do you have any idea how hard it is to find a sponsor like Mr. LI in the entertainment industry?”

Biting her lip, her complexion pale, Gu Zhinan replied, “I… I didn’t do anything…”

Indeed.

Third Master LI wasn’t known for any vices and was generally generous.

She had heard of some patrons who could be cruel.

“No? Then why were you thrown out for no reason?” Sister Hua scolded, frustrated. “Get in the car. Don’t go out for a while.. What if you were photographed looking like this?”
