“Who?” The only thing he knew for certain from this entire mess was that his mother had died because of that old hag.

“I’m not sure, the only thing we can do now is wait. In the meantime, make sure your sister is safe,” Qiao Yi remarked, “I figure Gu Juexi can give you an answer.”

Gu Enterprise.

After signing the last document of the day, Gu Juexi sent his secretary out. He massaged his temples and stared blankly at the monitor.

Mo Fei—of course, he knew who she was.

He knew her not because she was his employee but because of her true identity.

Gu Juexi tapped the table rhythmically and thought about it. He was convinced that her presence here was not a coincidence as she had appeared one year before Ye Yuwei came back.

Those who were aware of Ye Yuwei’s return and also knew the precise time of her return were none other than Qian Yikun and Nalan Chunbo.

For someone with a special set of skills like Mo Fei, it was no surprise she would involve herself with either one of them for a partnership.

Mo Fei and Qian Yikun, a thief and an officer? It sounded like a possible team.

Mo Fei and Nalan Chunbo, a thief and a rich man? It could work too.

So who was it?

Qian Yikun? Nalan Chunbo?

It seemed like Nalan Chunbo was the better option.

After all, they were brother and sister, which eliminated the romantic element.

There were only two job scopes for someone like Mo Fei; she was paid either to murder someone or to protect someone.

Murdering Ye Yuwei was highly unlikely, it would be a foolish scheme since he was by her side.

It must be to provide protection then.

When the thought flashed through his mind, he raised his head abruptly.

She was here to protect Ye Yuwei, which also meant that someone was going after Ye Yuwei.

Gu Juexi got to his feet hastily. He grabbed his phone from the table and called Ye Yuwei. “Where are you?”

“I’m at the bank, where else can I be?” Ye Yuwei answered while scrutinizing the data. “What is wrong with you?”

Ye Yuwei had probably sensed him being unnaturally tense and agitated. He composed himself after he went into the elevator and replied, “Nothing. I’m heading to the bank now, don’t go anywhere.” He ended the call.

Ye Yuwei pouted in irritation, where else could she possibly go now?

Weirdo.

Gu Juexi arrived at the bank like greased lightning. He parked his car and went straight into the bank.

“Mr. Gu—”

Gu Juexi walked straight to the elevator, giving all greetings and salutations the cold shoulder.

The moment the elevator reached his floor and the door opened, he saw Mo Fei standing in front of him waiting for the elevator. Mo Fei was stunned when she saw him, but she quickly gained her composure, smiled and greeted him. “Mr. Gu.”

Gu Juexi narrowed his eyes at her. He pulled her into the elevator seconds before the door closed.

Unexpectedly, Ye Yuwei saw the scene. She leaned against her office door, watching the elevator door close, her lips curled up eerily.

Instinctively, Mo Fei tried to fight back but she was pressed against the elevator wall with her hands crossed above her head, restricting her movement. Gu Juexi sneered in a warning tone, “You are no match for me.”

Mo Fei was riled up by this humiliation. When Gu Juexi let her go, she immediately took a step away from him. She stared at him calculatively and said with a mocking smile, “Of course I am no match for the person at the top of the list of hardest to kill targets.”

“Who sent you here?” asked Gu Juexi bluntly.

“Mr. Gu, we have rules in our world which I’m sure you know too,” Mo Fei exclaimed and pressed the first-floor button. “My service is to protect Mrs. Gu ten times, then you’ll never see me again.”

Gu Juexi squinted at Mo Fei who was smiling wickedly. He felt that this woman was as abhorring as Qian Yikun.
