Chapter 1259: The Embarrassed Gu Rou

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Everyone was familiar with the location on the screen. It was a particular corner of the Bai family's courtyard.

However, the scene on the screen was not at night, but in the afternoon. The banquet had yet to begin.

There were two other men beside Gu Rou. They were dressed as receptionists, but they did not look like members of the Bai Family. Instead, they looked like members of the Gu Family.

Although the video wasn't very clear, and their voices had also been blurred by the rustling sound of the system, one could still faintly hear what Gu Rou told them.

As soon as this scene was shown, the tears in Gu Rou's eyes froze. She even forgot that she was still pretending to be pitiful. She was so anxious that she wanted to rush toward the power cord.

However, Helian Weiwei was one step ahead of her and blocked her way. With a glacial expression, she said, "It hasn't started yet. Why are you in such a hurry, Miss Gu?"

"Grandfather!" Gu Rou knew that she couldn't go over, so she could only turn her head and tightly hold on to Old Master Gu's sleeve so that he could help her.

As Old Master Gu looked at Baili Jiajue, he heavily knocked on his dragon-headed walking stick. Anger was written all over his face as he yelled, "What on earth do you want to do? Why is my granddaughter on the screen?!"

"Haven't your Gu Family always been kind and honest?" The smile on the corner of Baili Jiajue's mouth was tainted with animosity, the intensity of which was even more clearly expressed by his brows. As his words fell, there seemed to be some invisible fog surging back and forth behind him, which made it impossible for people to get close.

Those goons from the Gu Family who followed Old Master Gu still wanted to move, but just as they took a step forward, they were suddenly blocked by a black shadow that suddenly appeared before them.

Old Master Gu could only stare with his eyes wide open in anger and panic. "Baili Jiajue!"

"Shh, lower your voice." Baili Jiajue placed his slender fingers between his lips, his movements elegant and devilish. As he forced a smile, he said, "My people are bad-tempered. If you keep agitating like this, I'm not sure whether they'll hurt you."

That's right, it's them.

Each of the black-clothed men was transformed from the monsters behind Baili Jiajue.

Those goons of the Gu family didn't know whether they had an illusion, but they always felt that when those black-clothed men blocked them, their eyes seemed to be suffused with a scarlet red that made their opponents tremble.

Looking at this scene, Baili Shangxie laughed evilly.

Helian Qingchen's expression was indifferent, but his fingers kept caressing Ajiu's head. Standing like that with his sister, he cast a cold glance at the Gu Family.

After settling the distractions from the Gu Family, Helian Weiwei glanced at monkey and L, indicating for them to continue.

As the play button was pressed, everyone could hear what Gu Rou said in the video clip.

"When you see her, you must chase her away, understood?"

When she said this, Gu Rou paused and took out a stack of money from her wallet. As she shoved the money to the two men, she said, "Settle this. Don't let anyone know."

The two men didn't accept it at first, as if they were still a little worried. "Miss, this is the Bai Family's banquet, not the Gu Family's. If we don't let her go home, will there be any trouble later?"
