Ye Yuwei looked at Lu Qichuan with utmost gratitude in her eyes, especially when he said he could help as a defense lawyer.

Gu Juexi was furious.

‘I was the one who wrecked the studio, why wouldn’t I trust her? Your presence is redundant!’

Gu Juexi turned toward Ye Yuwei and happened to see her smiling at Lu Qichuan.

‘What is there to smile at?’

Bai Yuyan subtly bit her lip. A look of dissatisfaction crossed her face, but she quickly masked it. “Grandma, why did you lodge a police report? This is a family matter. There is no need to blow this up. After all, Yuwei is Brother Gu’s wife.” Bai Yuyan exclaimed.

Ye Yuwei and Lu Qichuan exchanged looks. They were rendered speechless by Bai Yuyan’s actions.

Gu Juexi caught their exchanged glance, thus his expression darkened.

Gu Juexi stepped in between Ye Yuwei and Lu Qichuan. Due to his height, he managed to block Ye Yuwei’s view.

‘What has gotten into him again?’

Lu Qichuan’s lips faintly curved upward. Seeing how Gu Juexi got jealous was something to be happy about.

But beneath the happiness was a tinge of sadness.

Gu Juexi had fallen for Ye Yuwei. No one stood a chance anymore.

For Lu Qichuan, this might not be a good thing.

“Mrs. Gu—” On the way to Gu Mansion, the police officers had been preempted by Lu Qichuan. Therefore, they were courteous.

Ye Yuwei looked at the police officers. “I didn’t do it. After leaving the jewelry studio, I went directly to the bank. I did not go to any other places.”

“You didn’t visit other places, but you could just make a phone call to get people to do it, couldn’t you?” Madame Gu sneered.

Ye Yuwei took a deep breath and stared at Madame Gu. “Madame Gu, I didn’t do it, and I don’t have that kind of connections.”

If she did, she would get people to beat up Bai Yuyan—not wreck her studio.

“You lead an immoral life and you have so many men around you. Who knows whether you have connections or not?” Madame Gu cursed.

The police officers glanced at each other with a look of dismay.

Ye Yuwei trembled with rage.

“Madame Gu, please don’t spout words without proof.” Ye Yuwei growled.

Gu Juexi narrowed his eyes at Ye Yuwei’s trembling figure and saw her hands balled into fists tightly.

Ye Yuwei looked helpless clenching her fists and was unable to retaliate.

Even with such a grave accusation, she did not know how to fight back.

She was still inexperienced after all.

Only thought of putting up a fight, but does not know how to counterattack efficiently.

“Grandma, do you wish that badly for your grandson to be made a cuckold? Gu Juexi mocked.

The old mistress was taken aback by Gu Juexi’s words and did not know how to refute.

“Madame Gu, you may be sued for defamation for your words.” Lu Qichuan advised with a smile.

“Little Chuan, are you threatening me now?” Madame Gu pointed at Lu Qichuan, feeling immense anger toward Ye Yuwei.
