"All I have to know is that he is stealing the nation's money. He's a criminal!" Ye Yuwei burst out angrily.
Gu Juexi looked at Ye Yuwei's furious face and wondered if Ye Shu made the same choice back then.
"And what leverage do you have to go against him?" Gu Juexi asked softly in Ye Yuwei's ear.
"So you hold a candle for the devil?" Ye Yuwei retorted, her eyes blazing. "You used to defend this country! Where is the Army Uncle that I knew?"
Gu Juexi flung her hand off and stared at her coldly. "Your Army Uncle died 10 years ago."
Ye Yuwei went silent.
"Keep your head down if you are not strong enough to fight back. It's better for you that way," said Gu Juexi as he switched off the lights.
Ye Yuwei was drowning in emotions she could not identify. The Gu Juexi she knew was nothing like this. Not this cold, and definitely not the type to defend a criminal. He was a warrior of this nation!
