Su Ye narrowed his eyes and said, “Are you curious about these things?”

Mao Xiaowei’s expression stiffened and he smiled awkwardly. He hurriedly waved his hand and said, “I’ll just casually ask, hehe.”

After saying that, he ran out of the room without looking back.

After narrowing his eyes thoughtfully, Su Ye smiled helplessly. He looked at the suit in his hand and muttered to himself, “It’s just killing a few ordinary people. There are plenty of ways to not implicate the people who brought me there …”

Su Ye quickly changed his clothes. Without waiting for Mao Xiaowei to find his notebook, he went straight back to the next floor. Obviously, he had no intention of waiting for Mao Xiaowei.

After all, it was getting late, and it was time to leave if he wanted to attend the banquet.

However, as soon as Su Ye walked out of the elevator, he saw Wang Shuo hurrying over. After examining Su Ye’s changed clothes, he was full of displeasure and said, “Since you know that my young miss would be in danger if she went out, why did you persuade her to attend the banquet in Ye Clan?”

Su Ye raised his eyebrows and said, “You’re just a bodyguard, don’t you think you’re being too lenient?”

Wang Shuo was stunned. After clenching his teeth, You You said, “Then I have to be responsible for the safety of my young miss.”

Su Ye said unhappily, “You mean to make her hide in the room all the time and not do anything, then why did she come to District X?”

Wang Shuo said to You You, “Miss came to District X without the consent of our family.”

Su Ye shrugged, “That has nothing to do with me.”

“You!”

Wang Shuo’s eyes widened. Just as he was about to say something else, Liu Jingyao’s door suddenly opened.

Seeing Liu Jingyao poking out of the room in a luxurious dress, the black-suited bodyguards guarding the corridor cried out in alarm, “Miss! Hurry up and go back. It’s dangerous outside!”

Seeing that the curtains on the corridor were tightly closed, Liu Jingyao felt a little relieved that she would not be killed by the sniper just as she went out. She immediately curled her lips and said, “You guys are all standing here looking good! Since you know that there is danger, why don’t you take care of it? What use do I need you guys to come here for?”

These words really made the group of black-suited bodyguards feel ashamed on the road.

Indeed, only bodyguards who could not stand on the stage would put the protected people in danger and could only surround them to protect them. A truly powerful bodyguard would be able to eliminate all the risk factors in advance. Even if some dangers could not be eliminated in advance, they would not just surround the employer, but would instead take the initiative to eliminate those dangers.

At this moment, for example, the most important thing they should do was to find the source of the danger and eradicate it, not just to guard Liu Jingyao.

She was just ashamed. No matter what they did before, Liu Jingyao’s situation was different from that of an ordinary protected person.

After all, even if an ordinary person would face a huge force or a killer, it was still only a small group of people. Although it was troublesome, it was not impossible for them to deal with it.

But now, Liu Jingyao was facing countless thugs in District X. They couldn’t eradicate all of them, could they?

After Liu Jingyao scolded the group of black-suited bodyguards who wanted to stop her from leaving, she narrowed her eyes and looked at Su Ye, who was really stopped by Wang Shuo. Then, she walked over slowly with her long skirt in hand and said unhappily, “Well, it’s said that if something goes wrong, you have to be responsible!”

Su Ye smiled awkwardly. Originally, Liu Jingyao did not plan to go to the banquet in Ye Clan, but in order to sneak in, Su Ye naturally had to convince Liu Jingyao to go.

Since Liu Jingyao already knew that someone was unfavorable to her, she naturally had to ensure her own safety first. Although she didn’t ask Su Ye why he wanted her to bring her to the Ye Clan’s banquet, the prerequisite was to ensure her safety. Su Ye naturally wouldn’t refuse this request.

On the other hand, Wang Shuo hurriedly interrupted, “Miss, are you really going to that banquet?”

Liu Jingyao glanced at Wang Shuo and said unhappily, “I want you to care about me!”

“But it’s very dangerous for you to go out now!” Wang Shuo said anxiously.

Liu Jingyao curled her lips and said, “This guy promised to protect me.”

Wang Shuo immediately turned to Su Ye and said, “Although your skills are indeed formidable, how can you ensure the safety of my young miss?”

Su Ye smiled helplessly. “How can I ensure her safety? I don’t need you to worry. Is the car ready?”

Wang Shuo You You said, “If you don’t tell me, I won’t let Miss go with you!”

Su Ye frowned, but seeing Liu Jingyao on the side, she said, “I think it’s because the thugs outside blocked the road. You can’t even prepare a car for me, can you?”

Wang Shuo did not conceal anything and said, “Since Miss knows what is happening outside the hotel, why should she go out?”

Liu Jingyao did not answer Wang Shuo’s question. Instead, she narrowed her eyes and said to Su Ye, “Hey! You heard me too. It’s not that I don’t want to go. If you can’t take me out, then I can’t help you.”

Su Ye smiled helplessly. He pushed the elevator and said, “You don’t need to worry. Just follow me downstairs to get the car. No one can stop us.”

Wang Shuo immediately sneered, “What a joke! Right now, the hotel is full of thugs. I’m afraid that even police armoured vehicles won’t be able to move a single step. What did you say that no one can stop you?”

Su Ye ignored Wang Shuo’s intentions and slowly walked into the elevator. He turned to Liu Jingyao and said, “What are you still waiting for? Can’t you leave?”

Liu Jingyao narrowed her eyes, slowly lifted her skirt, and walked straight towards the elevator.

However, seeing this, Wang Shuo hurriedly stopped him and said, “Miss!”

Liu Jingyao’s expression darkened as she scolded, “You knew you would let me hide in the house. Now, someone who can ensure my safety and allow me to go out has appeared. From now on, I don’t need you to follow me!”

With that, he patted away Wang Shuo’s hand and quickly walked into the elevator.

Su Ye narrowed his eyes and smiled, but he didn’t have the slightest intention of waiting for Wang Shuo to follow him. He directly pressed the button to close the door.

When Wang Shuo regained consciousness, the elevator doors had already started to merge. Seeing that Su Ye and Liu Jingyao were in the elevator, his eyes immediately widened.

Regardless of whether Liu Jingyao had made up her mind to go out or not, even if they couldn’t stop her, some bodyguards should go downstairs first to make sure everything was safe, not Liu Jingyao.

This hotel was over ten floors tall. If there was no elevator and they wanted to go down the stairs, no matter how fast they ran, they would not be able to get down to the first floor before the elevator arrived.

However, just as Wang Shuo was about to reach out to block the closed elevator door, he suddenly felt an invisible force blocking him from the elevator.
