"Hmph! There won't be a dismissal." A cold and displeased grunt sounded aloud.
The noisy crowd that was feeling excited over Bi Zheng's formidable background immediately fell silent.
With their heads lowered, they did not even dare to breathe too loudly.
Unlike the crowd, this cold grunt did not affect Pei Ge and Bi Zheng at all.
Pei Ge was still positively and gratefully beaming at Bi Zheng.
She was really touched that he would stand out against the crowd for her.
Compared to Ji Ziming's protection, which was easy for him to provide, Bi Zheng essentially risked everything he had, including his job, just to help her.
"Bi Zheng, I'm really thankful for your help this time. I'll treat you to a meal another day!" Completely ignoring the man beside her who was emitting cold air, she walked toward Bi Zheng with a grin.
However, she only managed to take a few steps forward before her wrist was tightly grabbed by someone.
