Under the scrutiny of many eyes, Chu Ge put down the window he had silently removed, extended one leg, curled the other, leaned sideways on the windowsill, raised his right hand, and smiled slightly, "Hey."
Although he was smiling on the outside, Chu Ge felt quite helpless inside. Qin Ruojing and the others were in the nearby Qiushi Hall, and the wine-spilling incident was still hanging in his mind. And now, such a situation had arisen here.
Women, especially beautiful women, often mean trouble.
But since he ran into this situation, he couldn't just ignore it. He had waited until now to come in because he wanted to see what attitude Chen Jiatong and Xu Jingyuan had towards this matter.
People choose their own paths. If these two women didn't resist, or if their resistance wasn't that intense and they went along with Chen Yujie half-heartedly, Chu Ge would act as if he knew nothing, at most mock himself, call himself an "idiot," and let the matter pass.
However, since the two women were so resolute in their stance and Chen Yujie still wanted to force them, even though Chu Ge still found it quite troublesome, given their loyalty to him, he could only wade into this mess.
Ignoring everyone else in the room, Chu Ge focused his gaze on Chen Jiatong and Xu Jingyuan, gave them a soft smile, and although he didn't say much, gave them a reassuring look that said, "With me here, don't worry."
As soon as the two women met Chu Ge's gaze, they immediately ran to him like swallows returning to their nests. Although they had a thousand words to say, they knew now wasn't the time, so they smiled, cried, and nervously hid behind Chu Ge.
Chen Yujie's face became even more grim. A moment ago, these two women were glaring at him defiantly, but now, beside Chu Ge, they looked so demure?
Just what kind of background does this surnamed Chu have? And what benefits has he given these two women?
What displeased Chen Yujie even more was that, damn it, last time it was this Chu guy who ruined his plans, and now it was him again?
"Young Master Chu, haha..." Chen Yujie laughed coldly, "Removing the window and entering uninvited, what do you mean by this? These two women said their boyfriend — could it be that it's actually you?"
"It really is just that coincidental." Chu Ge also chuckled, raised an eyebrow, "Do you have an issue with that?"
Looking at the subtly antagonistic yet seemingly friendly exchanges between Chu Ge and Chen Yujie, Chen Jue couldn't help but feel a headache coming on.
He certainly knew that Chu Ge was the president of Tianqing Company and was also aware that Chen Jiatong and Xu Jingyuan were image ambassadors for the company, but he truly hadn't expected there to be this layer of relationship between Chu Ge and these two women, enough for him to stand up for them here.
In fact, even if Chen Jiatong and Xu Jingyuan had mentioned Chu Ge, Chen Jue wouldn't have paid much attention.
After all, from his perspective, these two women were no more than somewhat popular actresses. Surely, in Chu Ge's eyes, they couldn't be very important. But judging from the current situation, it seemed it wasn't as he imagined?
Sighing in silence, Chen Jue decided to say and do nothing for the moment, opting to watch how things unfolded.
"You're asking if I have any issues?"
Chen Yujie laughed as if he'd heard a joke, let out a few laughs, his gaze suddenly turned cold, then took a cigarette, and when Gao Wei obligingly lit it for him, he took a deep drag.
"I haven't even settled the score with you for the last time, and now you're here ruining things again. I ought to ask you, if it were you, wouldn't you have an issue? Is it going to be every time I want to have fun with a woman, you have to stick your nose in? Hmm?"
The last incident had indeed left Chen Yujie feeling quite suffocated, but due to some concerns, he hadn't troubled Chu Ge and instead vented his anger on his former two bodyguards.
Poor those two top-notch black market fighters, they ended up getting a few resounding slaps, viciously berated, and then reassigned to guard the entrance of one of their family's companies.
"To be honest, I couldn't care less if you play around with other women, even with these two who are connected to me, as long as they were willing, I wouldn't interfere. But it seems they've already said they're unwilling. If you were me, would you step in or not?"
Listening to Chu Ge's frank words, Chen Jiatong and Xu Jingyuan felt quietly thankful. Although they didn't know when Chu Ge had arrived, it was clear that he was already aware of what happened earlier.
Fortunately, their stance was firm enough; otherwise, not only would they have been toyed with by Chen Yujie for nothing today, but they also wouldn't have been able to maintain their relationship with Chu Ge in the future.
"So you're saying you're definitely intervening in today's matter?" Chen Yujie tapped his fingers a few times on the table, pointing at the things on the table, "Mr. Chu, are you sure about this? I brought all these things, isn't it a bit unreasonable to take them away without even using them?"
Chu Ge gave a faint smile without confirming or denying, and this smile made Chen Yujie's anger rise again. It seemed as if Chu Ge was saying, "Are you shitting me?"
Of course, Chen Yujie wasn't wronging Chu Ge, because that's exactly what Chu Ge was thinking, with an extra "Go to hell!"
Involuntarily, Chen Yujie's face turned darker, but since he couldn't figure out what Chu Ge's background was, and since Chu Ge appeared so fearless, he forcibly suppressed his anger and came up with an idea he found somewhat acceptable, making the biggest concession he could.
Chen Yujie picked up the handcuffs on the table and played with them for a few seconds, "Let's do it this way, I won't make it hard for you. Here today, just the two of us, let's each pick one of these two women and have them serve us once. The others can just watch for fun, and afterward, I won't bother them again, and our past issues will be written off. How about it?"
Chen Jue let out a sigh of relief, as Chen Yujie's concession was truly beyond his expectations. He thought that Chu Ge shouldn't be someone who doesn't know how to have fun, and these two women are certainly no innocent flowers; it seemed about time Chu Ge should take what he could get.
Offending Chen Yujie and the Chen Family in the provincial capital over two lovers was absolutely not worth it. Weighing the pros and cons was really quite simple.
Not only did Chen Jue think this, but even Chen Jiatong and Xu Jingyuan also felt that Chu Ge might very likely agree.
After all, since ancient times, there's a phrase about sacrificing a pawn to protect the chariot. On the level of Chen Yujie and Chu Ge, the two women were obviously the "pawns," and the potential conflict between Chu Ge and Chen Yujie was the so-called "chariot." No matter their helplessness or grievances, this was a fact they couldn't change.
Moreover, they had to admit, judging from Chen Yujie's previous arrogant demeanor, he indeed had made a big concession. According to his suggestion, Chu Ge wouldn't be at a disadvantage at all; only one of them would be.
While the two women were feeling complicated, wondering who among them would become the "pawn" being sacrificed to protect the "chariot," Chu Ge smiled sarcastically, "Well, this is quite the gesture, according to you, I really should thank you?"
Chen Yujie snorted, thinking Chu Ge had accepted his suggestion, glanced at Chen Jiatong behind Chu Ge, "Miss Chen, come over?"
Chen Jiatong shivered, sighed silently. From the moment they entered the room, Chen Yujie was more interested in her, and sure enough, he chose her.
Glancing at the side of Chu Ge's face, Chen Jiatong hesitated for a few seconds, then finally took a step forward.
However, before she could take the step, Chu Ge extended his left arm to block her, "Jiatong, I told you, no one can force you to do what you don't want to do."
Chen Jiatong felt warm inside, "But..."
Chu Ge lowered his arm, "No buts. If you don't want to go, just stay still."
There was a tremendously strong confidence in Chu Ge's words, and Chen Jiatong pressed her lips together tightly, choosing to remain where she was.
Chen Yujie's eye twitched twice, exhaled the last puff of smoke, stubbed out his cigarette on the floor, and looked at Chu Ge with a half-smile, "It seems, Young Master Chu also appreciates Miss Chen's skills? So I have to choose Miss Xu?"
Xu Jingyuan trembled violently. All along, she felt that compared to herself, Chu Ge seemed closer to Chen Jiatong. It seemed she was right; if he had to choose one of them to please Chen Yujie, it would only be her.
However, just when Xu Jingyuan was disheartened and in agony prepared to step forward, Chu Ge raised his right arm.
"Tell me, do you want to, or not?" Chu Ge's voice was calm, devoid of any emotional fluctuation.
"What do you mean, Chu?" Chen Yujie's anger was about to explode, unable to suppress anymore.
Ignoring Chen Yujie, Chu Ge slightly turned his head, speaking to Xu Jingyuan word by word, "It's still the same thing that I told Jiatong, as long as I'm here, nobody can force you to do what you don't want to do. Tell me, do you want to, or not?"
"I..." Xu Jingyuan, moved by the firmness in Chu Ge's voice, saw the gentle expression on the side of his face, and finally burst into tears, releasing her tightly bitten lower lip, and shouted aloud.
"I don't want to! Young Master Chu, please... please help me!"
"With pleasure." Chu Ge smiled, turning around and flashing a bright smile, gently stroking Xu Jingyuan's smooth hair. He turned back to Chen Yujie, shrugged helplessly, "Looks like you're on your own?"
"Chu, fuck you! I give you respect, and you throw it away!" Chen Yujie was utterly furious, sprang up from beside the table, and waved to his two new bodyguards, "Get him! Kill him for me!"
