Yan Xiao looked like there was nothing she could do. I couldn't describe your innocent look, but it made people feel like Chu Baoai and Gu Zhongxian had ill intentions.

Chu Baoai said anxiously, ”Obviously Brother Gu and I were going to send someone to attack last night …”

Chu Baoai sensed that something was amiss and immediately shut her mouth, allowing the surrounding people to hear what she said.

Jian Huan said in shock: ”I didn't hear wrongly, last night's raid... Attack what? ”

Jin Yi clapped his hands: Could it be an ambush?

”Oh! The truth is here! ”

”For the sake of the medicinal pills, they are prepared to kill someone and take over their territory!”

Actually, this sort of thing had happened before in the youth selection competition, so it wasn't as shocking as it seemed.

But in the end, what this young man chose to compete for was money. With his identity as Guarding Mansion and status in Gu Mansion, he actually wanted to kill the participants to obtain the pellets.

You guys control the competition. All these years, you've held so many competitions.

No one was a fool. Top three in the competition would receive a full reward, and the fourth or fifth place would receive half of the competition's reward. If others didn't get it, they would pay up, and even their lives would be in danger.

However, if they were to perform well in the competition, the higher ups would put a lot of importance on them. Everything would be fine, so even if the champion was hopeless, there would still be a lot of people fighting for the spots to show their strength.

The host of Guarding Mansion had controlled the competition for so many years, obtaining so many benefits from its name, could it be that it did not give any hope to others? Who could endure this!

On top of that, it wasn't a good thing to scheme and plot against others to harm them. This made everyone feel indignant and resentful.

This time, Yan Xiao and the rest were not schemed against, if it were anyone else, they might not even be able to survive!

”Guarding Mansion? I think it's called the Residence of Ba Zhen.”

”The youth selection competition was originally held by the Tian Ji Kingdom in order to select talented geniuses, but now it is being used as a method to guard the Gu family. I know people from the capital, so this matter must definitely be spread to the capital! If the Imperial Court finds out that our Chu Zhen and the Gu Clan are so powerful, we will definitely praise them greatly. ”

”I know him too. I'll send someone to write a letter right now. Since we're participating in the youth selection, we naturally have the duty to help with the promotions!”

”Right, we must spread this to everyone!”

”Of course!”

These people began to mock him in a weird way and were about to report to him.

Gu Zhongxian and the rest were shocked, but Chu Baoyu became even more anxious: ”Wait!”

Chu Baoyu could no longer be angry. She quickly took two steps forward and gently bowed to the crowd: ”Please calm down, everyone. There must be some kind of misunderstanding, why would Guarding Mansion do such a thing?” As she said that, he looked towards Yan Xiao and the others with a pitiful gaze, ”Young Master Yan, my sister and Young Master Gu met with mishap in front of your restaurant, we also had some conflicts earlier, and you are indeed worthy of suspicion. Furthermore, they have been humiliated to this extent, so naturally, I feel a little anxious.

Chu Baoyu's gentle and gentle voice was indeed pleasing to the eye. Since the onlookers had no direct interest in her, they naturally wouldn't make things difficult for her any longer.

Yan Xiao nodded her head: ”What Miss Chu says is reasonable, Young Master Gu and Third Young Miss of the Chu Family should learn from you, don't do things that wrongly accuse others or cause malicious harm, this time we will let it be on the account of their initial offense, but this time it will not be the case.”

Chu Baoyu's face turned cold. She did not know what was important for Yan Xiao, and did not spare him, but it was not good to be tangled in such a matter, if it stirred up more anger in the people, and when that happened, it would cause trouble in the capital.
