Chapter 681: If You Wish To Have One Of Your Hands Crippled, I Can Satisfy Your Wish
Everyone saw how the glass in Ye Li’er’s hand flew towards Lu Jingye.
In the next second, Lu Jingye moved his feet and dodged the wine that was splashed in his direction.
At the same time, he dodged Ye Li’er, who had pounced over in his direction.
“AH-!”
Ye Li’er had never expected that Lu Jingye would dodge and seeing that she was about to fall down in the most embarrassing manner, she was so frightened that she started screaming without a care for her image.
The second before she fell to the ground, someone caught her by the wrist; and at the same time, a powerful force pulled her up.
By the time she returned to her senses, she was already pressed against Rick’s broad and strong chest.
“Miss Ye Li’er, are you alright?”
Ye Li’er suddenly felt her heart beating rapidly. In particular, when she felt Rick’s heartbeat. Her face turned red in an instant, not knowing if it was due to fright or embarrassment.
The scene of a hero rescuing a damsel in distress was originally a beautiful scene. However, at that moment, an untimely scoffing sound was heard. “What a great drama. Tsk tsk. Sure enough, I didn’t come here for nothing today.”

Ye Li’er’s complexion instantly paled at his words.
She was the daughter of a prince and not only did the person she fancy disregard her, but even a businessman also dared to make a joke out of her.
Ye Li’er’s tears streamed down her face in an instant.
Dan Wei flew into a rage. He strode towards Bu Di in large strides. When he arrived at where Bu Di was standing, he raised one of his feet and gave him a violent kick.
Before Bu Di managed to react, he had been pulled back by his arm and a tall body blocked the attack by standing in front of him. After the loud kicking sound was heard, Sang Bo asked, “Has Young Master Dan Wei managed to release his anger?”
Bu Di did not expect Sang Bo to block the kick on his behalf. He got angry and anxious at the same time. “Sang Bo, who told you to block that for me?!”
Sang Bo looked at him with a stern gaze. “Keep your mouth closed.”
Was Dan Wei someone they could afford to offend?
Bu Di had noticed Sang Bo’s gaze. Even though he was angry, he still kept his mouth shut.
“Hmph!” Dan Wei was very angry right now and he was unable to take it out on Lu Jingye. Since these two had sent themselves knocking at his door, why shouldn’t he unleash his anger on them? “Bu Di, who gave you such courage to be disrespectful to the royal family?”
Em Country had a strict hierarchy and if Dan Wei really planned to punish Bu Di for his actions, he could put him behind bars.
Bu Di did not mind. At most he could just leave Em Country, but he could not disregard Sang Bo.
Just as he was about to speak, Sang Bo stopped him. “Bu Di, keep quiet.”
The words Bu Di wanted to say were stuck in his throat. He looked at Sang Bo and became even more anxious.
Sang Bo did not look at him and his attention was on Dan Wei. “How can we make Young Master Dan Wei less angry?”
Dan Wei glanced at Lu Jingye who was standing there with an indifferent gaze. A cruel smile curved up on his lips. “If you let me kick you ten times, today’s incident shall pass just like that. Otherwise…”
Speaking up to here, he looked at Sang Bo’s eyes and pointed at Bu Di. “I’ll make him disappear from the face of the Earth.”
“You-”
“Bu Di!” Sang Bo shouted and Bu Di stopped. However, in the next second, he said with reddened eyes, “If he dares to kick you, I’ll kill him!”
“You dare!” Dan Wei shouted at him.
“Let’s see if I dare to do it or not!” Bu Di shouted even louder.
Sang Bo looked at Bu Di with a headache. He very much wanted to knock Bu Di out right now and bring him away. Now that the situation had escalated to such an extent, it was impossible to resolve. He subconsciously looked at Lu Jingye.
He felt that only he was capable of helping him at this moment.
Just then, Lu Jingye walked over.
Dan Wei looked at Lu Jingye who walked over and he asked coldly, “You want to help them?”
Lu Jingye looked at Bu Di whose face turned red from anger and he nodded. “Yes.”
Dan Wei sneered. “Then you had better think it over first.”
Lu Jingye looked at him and asked straightforwardly, “If I bring them away today, how do you intend to deal with me?”
“I will make it so that you can never leave Country Em.”
Lu Jingye smiled. His smile was faint and gentle, but the words he said almost made Dan Wei boil in rage, “You don’t have that ability.”
Having said that, he tapped on his wrist and said, “Yiyi, we’re going back.”
He then turned to Dan Wei who was so angry and looked as if he wanted to eat him alive. Lu Jingye continued to speak, “You might not know of it yet, but I’m the imperial merchant appointed by my country. If anything were to happen to me here, do you think the prince will protect you?”
“You-”
“Also.” Lu Jingye glanced in Ye Li’er’s direction and said, “I’m already married and I love my wife very much. I hope that you can refrain from doing anything that would make my wife misunderstand.”
Ye Li’er felt ashamed and resentful and she wailed even louder.
“Lu Jingye!” Dan Wei was furious and he raised his fist and brandished it towards Lu Jingye.
Everyone looked at Dan Wei’s ruthless fist and they felt cold sweat for Lu Jingye at the same time.
Yet, an even faster burst of wind rocketed towards Dan Wei.
BAM
“Ugh…”
Looking at a marble that had deflected Dan Wei’s fist, his expression changed due to pain.
Everyone subconsciously turned to look at the person who shot out the marble.
Zi Yi came over from the second hall and did not even bother to look at Dan Wei or the others. She went to pick up the marble which had rolled far away and said with an indifferent expression, “Apologies, I saw someone bullying my husband the moment I came in and this is just a conditioned reflex.”
“You-”
“Shut up.” Zi Yi gave Dan Wei a cold smile and she deliberately played around with the marble. “If you wish to have one of your hands crippled, I can satisfy your wish.”
“You are a-”
“You had better not complete your sentence.”
Lu Jingye spoke in a cold tone. “We are not from Country Em and so don’t bother to use your authority to scare us.”
Having said that, Lu Jingye walked over to Zi Yi and held her hand as he asked, “Did you have fun?”
Zi Yi pouted. “It was so boring. A group of women trying all sorts of means to act like fools in front of me. How boring.”
The group of women who entered the hall just so happened to hear her remark and their expressions turned ugly.
When they headed to the garden earlier, Zi Yi had remained silent for the whole time. Everyone thought that she was unaware of their little tricks but as it turns out, Zi Yi knew everything
Lu Jingye nodded and said, “If you don’t like it, we won’t attend such banquets again in the future.”
He then held her hand and made his way toward Sang Bo and Bu Di. “Are you leaving?”
Sang Bo said, “Let’s go.”
Thus the four of them took their leave without even bothering to bid farewell as everyone looked at them.
After the four of them left, everyone subconsciously looked at Dan Wei, only to be startled by how frightening the expression on his face was.
The mayor dared not come forward to speak up at this point in time.
Just then, Rick spoke. “Dan Wei, we still have a long way to go in the future. Don’t get angry because of such a small thing.”
Dan Wei looked at Rick who had a fierce emotion within his eyes.
He had somehow seen through Rick’s thoughts.
He came over to Ye Li’er and patted her shoulder. “Sister, let’s go. You are the most esteemed lady in our Country Em and there is no need to shed tears for a man whose heart is not with you.”
