Xue Mengqi looked at the security guards outside. After Gu Jingze withdrew his own security guards, they were all new. They were hired by the Gu family and were not familiar with the place, so they looked more immature than the previous security guards in the headquarters.
However, some of them were also here. In the past, Gu Jingze's security guards were not the only ones in the headquarters. There were also some security guards left by the Gu family. However, because they were on the Gu family's side, Gu Jingze could not take them away. They could only watch Gu Jingze leave, which made them feel a little awkward.
After all, they were the people who had protected Gu Jingze in the past. Now that Gu Jingze had left, they were not welcomed by the Gu family because they had protected Gu Jingze. They must have suspected that these people were already loyal to Gu Jingze, and Gu Jingze would never take them away, because they were on the Gu family's side.
So, looking at these new people, they couldn't help but feel that they were childish.
When Gu Jingze was still here, they were not qualified to enter the headquarters.
But now, the Gu family was short of people, so some of them who had just finished their training were sent here.
Xue Mengqi looked at them and called these old people in. She had long wanted to have her own bodyguards, but they were not qualified.
In the past, when she saw Gu Jingze's bodyguards were so powerful, absolutely loyal, and put their master first wherever they went, she was extremely jealous.
But at that time, if she had said that she wanted bodyguards, she would have become a laughing stock. The Gu family would not have trained bodyguards for them, and it would have exposed her ambition.
So, Xue Mengqi could only envy them in her heart, and did not dare to say anything.
But now, it was different. Gu Jingze had left, and she could definitely ask the Gu family to manage the headquarters.
So, she immediately looked at the security guards in the house, but found that none of them could compare to Gu Jingze's bodyguards, be it in ability or experience.
This kind of bodyguard was just a bodyguard in name. It was no different from ordinary security guards.
She looked at them again and again, and still felt that the security guards in the headquarters were the best.
She also understood that the people chosen by Gu Jingze were definitely different from the others. They must have been selected after many rounds of selection, and naturally, they were much better than the others.
She quickly called everyone into the office and said with a smile, "Congratulations. I'm telling you now that you've become bodyguards. From now on, you're no longer ordinary security guards. You have your own organization, your own responsibilities, and your own missions."
In the Gu family, becoming a bodyguard was a great honor.
This was because only the strongest people were at the peak of their training and practical operations. That was why he was chosen to be a bodyguard.
Becoming a bodyguard also meant that you were the strongest.
So when she said that she wanted them to be her bodyguards, she directly said, "Congratulations."
However, the people in front of him looked at each other without any joy on their faces.
There was no reaction at all.
Xue Mengqi said, "What? Don't you want this kind of glory?"
However, looking at the arrogant Xue Mengqi, everyone's faces were filled with disdain.
"Miss Xue, whose bodyguards are we? The Gu Clan no longer has a Clan Leader."
Xue Mengqi said, "There is no patriarch now, but there will be one in the future."
"Then let's wait until we have chosen a family head in the future."
Xue Mengqi's expression changed.
"What do you mean by this?"
The person in front said, "Bodyguards serve the Clan Leader and the person whom the Clan Leader has ordered. After coming out of the training camp, the first master that follows is the master for life. We don't have a Clan Leader now, and we didn't just come out of the training camp, so we're not suitable."
Xue Mengqi said, "Those rules are set by people, so naturally they can be changed by people."
"Then what's the point? You can just order us to be security guards."
This kind of bodyguard was no longer the strongest bodyguard in the past.
Xue Mengqi looked at these people, and could clearly feel that their attitude towards her was clearly filled with disdain.
They didn't have that much respect at all.
Xue Mengqi slammed the table, "You guys look clearly. Right now, the Gu Clan has no Clan Leader, but we are still your masters. The Gu Clan has not dispersed, and I, Xue Mengqi, am also one of the current leaders."
They snorted, "But you're not Mr Gu."
"You … You guys don't want to do it anymore, do you …"
"This kind of place isn't suitable for us to stay," he said.
Xue Mengqi's face was livid. She couldn't believe that they would roll their eyes at her when she offered to promote them out of goodwill.
Especially since she wasn't the only one with such an expression. Almost everyone else had the same expression.
They all said one after another, "That's right, not Mr Gu, the people outside are all sissies who have just come out of the training camp. It's too boring."
"Such weak people have the nerve to come to the headquarters."
"The headquarters is no longer the headquarters of the past."
"That's right, there's no point for us to stay here anymore."
"Let's just resign and go look for Mr Gu."
"Alright, let's go look for Mr Gu."
The group of people started to make a ruckus.
Xue Mengqi was really shocked.
Not to mention the other things, just the remuneration alone was extremely attractive, and they actually wanted to resign to look for Gu Jingze.
Was there something wrong with them?
"Sigh, you guys …" Xue Mengqi clenched her teeth. "Alright, alright, you guys go and look for Gu Jingze. He's not the Gu Jingze of the past anymore. He's no longer the Gu Clan's Clan Master, he's just an ordinary rich man. Compared to the Gu Clan, he's nothing. In the future, the Gu Clan will definitely target him and squeeze out all that he has now. If you guys go with him, don't even think about having the honor and rewards you have here anymore. When the time comes, you'll all be left with nothing."
The few of them snorted and looked at Xue Mengqi.
"We'd be willing to starve if we were to follow Mr Gu."
"Exactly, who do you think Mr Gu is? Do you think everyone can become Gu Jingze?"
"It's you idiots. If there's someone stronger than Mr Gu, I'd have to kneel before him."
"All of you together can't even compare to Mr Gu, yet you still want to fight against him."
As they spoke, they took off their uniforms and badges and threw them aside.
"Without Mr Gu, the Gu family's badges are useless."
They threw them down and walked out.
Xue Mengqi was left behind, looking coldly at the badges and clothes on the ground. She was so angry that her whole body was trembling.

Gu Jingze had nothing to do at home. After leaving the Gu family, he accompanied Lin Che to her company.
Lin Che said, "There's nothing wrong with the game now, but I almost got into a lawsuit."
Gu Jingze said, "With your intelligence, it's possible that you didn't think too much."
