Chapter 108 Stubbornness is Useless [4th Update, Request for Votes]

"Have you had your fill of laughter?" Ge Dongxu finally turned around and, upon seeing Jiang Lili whose attire was now tidy, his face darkened slightly as he spoke.

"Are you angry, Dongxu? The most I can do is not to behave like this in the future, okay?" Seeing the slight darkening of Ge Dongxu's face, Jiang Lili felt an inexplicable shiver in her heart. She quickly stepped forward, hugged his arm, and gently shook it, revealing a pitiful expression on her face.

Looking at the docile and pitiful girl in front of him, who seemed like a rabbit and drastically different from the fiery Jiang Lili of the past, Ge Dongxu felt almost as if he didn't recognize her anymore. After a long while, he forced a bitter smile and said, "I still prefer the way you were before, though a bit hot-headed and realistic, it looked normal and genuine, unlike now, which makes me feel somewhat uneasy."

"What's the matter? It depends on the person, you know! Back then, you were just a freshman, and a poor boy at that, so as your senior, I naturally had to put on a fiery front and show some attitude. But now that you're so impressive, and have rescued me from misery, of course I'd behave differently. Otherwise, would I, Jiang Lili, still be considered normal?" Jiang Lili said, pouting.

Upon hearing this, Ge Dongxu realized there was some truth to it and could only force a bitter smile. "Anyway, I hope that our interactions remain the same as before, unaffected by today's events." Continue your journey on empire

"Don't worry, I understand! It'll just be like this in private," Jiang Lili reassured. Having been admitted to the most prestigious high school in Changxi County, Changxi No. 1 High School, she was naturally not dull-witted. She immediately nodded in agreement at his words.

Seeing Jiang Lili nod her head in agreement, Ge Dongxu let out a silent sigh of relief and said, "I'll give Elder Zuo a call to see. He should be arriving soon. When he gets here, you just say what you need to say. There's no need to be afraid."

"Yeah, I understand, Dongxu. Thank you," Jiang Lili nodded and said.

Seeing that Jiang Lili still insisted on calling him Dongxu in private, Ge Dongxu initially wanted to persuade her otherwise, but considering the unpredictable temper of women, he figured more persuasion would lead to more trouble and let it be.

Of course, being called "Dongxu" by Jiang Lili, who had always acted superior to him, gave Ge Dongxu a rather bittersweet feeling.

So, Ge Dongxu used the room phone to call Zuo Le.

As expected, Zuo Le had already arrived at Changxi Grand Hotel, and his men were also on their way. He was currently in the hotel's security room.

Knowing that Zuo Le was in the hotel's security room, Ge Dongxu told him he would be right there and then hung up the phone.

"Elder Zuo has arrived. Let's go there now," Ge Dongxu suggested.

"Okay," Jiang Lili nodded, then followed Ge Dongxu out of the hotel.

They hadn't yet reached the elevator when the doors opened, and Lin Kun hurried out.

Seeing Ge Dongxu and Jiang Lili coming out, he quickly pressed the elevator button and then used his hand to block the doors from closing.

It was clear that Lin Kun was worried Ge Dongxu wasn't sure where the security room was and had specifically come up to escort him.

At this point, Jiang Lili was aware that Lin Kun was the son of the Changxi Grand Hotel's owner. Seeing him take the trouble to personally welcome Ge Dongxu for such a trivial matter, she felt increasingly puzzled by this junior from the first year of high school.

"What happened to those two scumbags named Duan Qiaoxue and Jin Ma? Did they say anything?" Ge Dongxu didn't bother with formalities when speaking with Lin Kun, as he stepped into the elevator with Jiang Lili and asked.

It was the first time Jiang Lili had seen a genuine second-generation rich kid, and she felt somewhat nervous. However, when she saw how casually Ge Dongxu questioned Lin Kun and how respectfully Lin Kun responded, her anxiety gradually faded.

"They're quite obstinate, claiming that your friend here volunteered to get involved with them," Lin Kun spoke with some hesitation when mentioning Jiang Lili, fearful of upsetting Ge Dongxu. His gaze also inadvertently swept quickly over Jiang Lili.

Seeing that Jiang Lili wasn't stunningly beautiful but had an attractive figure, it was clear why those two men had resorted to tactics to get her.

Even he, Lin Kun, would be tempted by such a woman!

Of course, even if Lin Kun had a hundred or a thousand times the courage he possessed now, he wouldn't dare harbor improper thoughts about the woman with the impressive figure before him.

"They're lying, I, I was coerced!" Jiang Lili became anxious upon hearing this, and tears involuntarily started rolling in her eyes.

"Don't panic, their stubbornness is useless!" Ge Dongxu saw Jiang Lili's emotions drastically fluctuate and quickly tried to comfort her.

"Yes! But what if they outright refuse to admit it, and they also have the IOU my dad wrote." Jiang Lili felt a bit calmer when Ge Dongxu spoke to console her, but she couldn't help showing a worried expression on her face.

"Don't worry, I will find a way to make them talk. Not only about this matter, but everything they have done will also be completely revealed by them," Ge Dongxu patted Jiang Lili's shoulder and consoled her again.

When Lin Kun heard Ge Dongxu's calm words, he couldn't help but shudder. He thought back to the events that had occurred in Ge Family Village.

At the same time, Lin Kun began to silently mourn for those two guys and the people behind them!

Of all people to offend, they had to offend Dongxu. They really didn't know what death means!

"Um, thank you!" Jiang Lili either intentionally or because she really needed a shoulder to lean on at that moment, nodded and said thank you as she conveniently leaned her body against him, showing a rather dependent appearance.

Knowing that Jiang Lili's emotions were still unstable, Ge Dongxu didn't dare to push her away. Instead, he gently held her fragrant shoulder a bit tighter.

Seeing this, Lin Kun hurriedly averted his eyes, feeling even more sorry for those two scumbags and the people behind them!

So, this woman has another kind of relationship with Dongxu. You guys are definitely going to suffer a very miserable death!

After exiting the elevator, Jiang Lili finally moved away from Ge Dongxu's shoulder.

When Ge Dongxu arrived at the security room, a few detectives temporarily called in by Zuo Le had also made it to the security room.

At first glance, this incident seemed quite ordinary, nothing more than two middle-aged men arranging a meet up with a woman, but once Lin Jinnuo explained the identities of these two men, along with Jiang Lili's identity to Zuo Le, a detective by training, he knew this case wasn't so simple but rather a criminal affair. So he immediately called in some of his reliable former subordinates.

Coincidentally, the detectives who came over today happened to be the ones Ge Dongxu had met outside the emergency room at Ouzhou City Hospital.

They were all aware of what had happened back then, but were later instructed not to speak of it, so these detectives recognized Ge Dongxu. Seeing him appear, they were all surprised and involuntarily showed a mix of awe and gratitude.

The last time they had taken action together with Zuo Le, others might not have known the severity of Zuo's injuries, but they were very clear about it. Yet, in the end, Chief Zuo recovered and left the hospital in not so many days, soon taking up the post of a County Party Standing Committee Member and the Head of the Public Security Bureau. Naturally, these former subordinates of Zuo Le also benefitted from his rise.

So for Ge Dongxu, this extraordinary man, they not only had a deep respect but also felt grateful. Because by saving Zuo Le, Ge Dongxu didn't just alleviate their guilt and self-blame but also helped them in their careers.
