Chapter 329: 329
Cheng Jie was already waiting there by the time they reached .
Ye Yuwei could feel Gu Juexi’s aura change before they entered the private room . She was familiar with this aura—it was the aura that Gu Juexi had at the hearing .
He would take Cheng Jie down, no matter the cost .
They entered the private room and saw Cheng Jie sitting there, facing the door .
Their gazes locked and the atmosphere became tense .
Gu Juexi’s hand on Ye Yuwei’s waist tightened and his entire body stiffened as Cheng Jie smiled charmingly, standing up to welcome them . “I almost thought you wouldn’t make it . ”
Ye Yuwei’s face was a blank mask . She was not smiling—not even diplomatically, and her main focus was on the man’s deep blue eyes .
They were different .
Gu Juexi controlled his murderous aura and sat down beside Ye Yuwei without shaking Cheng Jie’s hand . Cheng Jie sat back down, indifferent .
The waitress began to serve their food and no one said a word until she left the room .
“I heard Mrs . Gu saved this hotel . It appears Mrs Gu is a good judge of character,” Cheng Jie said, smiling .

“I am different you, from Mr . Cheng . ” Ye Yuwei sneered, sitting upright .
“You are too kind Mrs . Gu,” replied Cheng Jie, who looked like he did not get Ye Yuwei’s sarcasm .
Ye Yuewi bit her lip .
Gu Juexi put his hand on Ye Yuwei’s and looked at Cheng Jie . “Why did you invite us here? Don’t you think my wife and I wouldn’t be happy to see you?”
“It was most entertaining speaking to Mrs . Gu last time, so I wished to talk to her again,” said Cheng Jie, smile never leaving his face .

“I don’t have anything to say to you,” Ye Yuwei replied tightly, trying her best to control her anger . Gu Juexi had to hold Ye Yuwei’s hand tightly to make sure she did not throw her wine in Cheng Jie’s face .
Gu Juexi leaned toward Ye Yuwei and murmured softly into her ear, “Don’t let your anger be the reason someone attacks you . ”
“Gu…”
Gu Juexi held Ye Yuwei’s hand again and smiled at Cheng Jie . “You got what you wanted . The diamond project has been successfully implemented and you get to launder at least three billion dollars . This amount is worth my entire Gu Enterprise, so rest assured I will not put myself on the line, not to mention Mrs . Gu and my son . ”
“It’s good that I have your word but Mrs . Gu looks like she is in a bad mood . ” Cheng Jie laughed, swirling the wine in his glass .

“Didn’t you plan this from the start?” Ye Yuwei burst out, pursing her lips after .
“I told you the other day that there is no gray area in this field . Mrs Gu, you were just too careless,” cooed Cheng Jie, leaning toward Ye Yuwei and smiling indulgently .
Cheng Jie then leaned back in his chair . “I really have to thank Mrs . Gu for being careless though, or it would have been too difficult to take Mr . Gu down . Then again, I wouldn’t have gotten the chance if Mr . Gu didn’t care so much about you . Don’t you agree, Mrs . Gu?”
Ye Yuwei’s body stiffened at Cheng Jie’s words—even Gu Juexi could feel her rage .
