"What are you doing out here? Didn't I tell you to stay inside?"
Leng Yuan saw that Leng Qiushou and Leng ManCang had gotten the message, so he finally let go. He walked over to Gu Jiaojiao and spoke in a soft voice.
His tone was a complete one-eighty, a world apart from the murderous demeanor he'd had just moments before.
If not for his face, they would have suspected he was a different person entirely.
He was all threats and violence toward them.
But with Gu Jiaojiao, he was all gentle whispers.
"I heard them slandering you, so I came out to see what was going on."
Gu Jiaojiao replied, her gaze sweeping over the people behind Leng Yuan.
She shifted the cleaver in her hand.
She looked ready to chop down anyone who dared to badmouth Leng Yuan.
Leng Qiushou and Leng ManCang took a step back.
They thought both Leng Yuan and Gu Jiaojiao were crazy. One would start a fight without a word, and the other would grab a cleaver to threaten people just as quickly.
