Standing outside the front gates of the Phoenix Lodge, Xu Yun'er, who had been stopped by cold-faced security guards, held her phone in a death grip and was gnashing her teeth in fury!"This idiot, Gu Jiuci. Why is she always so lucky?!"She had clearly seen Huo Mingche head angrily toward the school to take her away!Why had an entire night gone by yet nothing had happened?Which part had she miscalculated?"Young lady, go away. Don't stand here. If you don't leave, we'll have to take action!"At this moment, the black-clothed security guard in the guardroom to the side came out again to chase her away."I'm leaving now."Xu Yun'er hurriedly stood on her toes and glanced at the Phoenix Lodge again.The extravagant sight blinded her completely. She clenched her fists tightly and silently made a vow."Just wait. I will eventually be the mistress here!"Inside the master bedroom...After hanging up Xu Yun'er's call, Gu Jiuci was in a wonderful mood.She stretched and looked
At 8 a.m., the Rolls-Royce Phantom stopped at the front entrance of S-Elite High School. The moment the car door opened, Gu Jiuci climbed out hurriedly. And just as her other foot cleared the door, she suddenly doubled back.With a smile, she stared at Huo Mingche."What's wrong?"Huo Mingche watched her calmly. His pretty eyes flashed with confusion."Give me your cell phone."Gu Jiuci stretched her hand toward Huo Mingche and he trustingly handed his phone to her.The girl accepted the phone and found that it was password protected. She tried entering her own birthday and, as expected, it immediately unlocked."I'll change my phone password to your birthday later."Gu Jiuci paused then dialed in her new number as she continued her muttering. Straightforwardly and without shame, she added her name as "the super-cute baby of my heart Xiao Jiu'er" before she handed the phone back to Huo Mingche."I will put your number as the first person in my contacts. In the future, if there
Although it was a grade-wide major exam, only language, mathematics, and English were tested. Furthermore, the school produced an entire set of exams, so the exam only took one morning.At noon, Gu Jiuci lay dizzily on her desk to rest. It was not because her mind was tired, but because her hand was sore...She had wanted to rest a little during lunch, but some people annoyed others to feel alive."Jiuci!"Once again, Xu Yun'er came to her classroom like a ghost haunting her. Seeing her lying on the table, she immediately put on a concerned expression and asked, "Are you all right? Are you feeling unwell? I knew that the devil must have bullied you yesterday!"Jiuci, if something is the matter, don't hold it in. You'll feel better if you talk to me about it."Xu Yun'er appeared outwardly sympathetic, but inside she was feeling very smug. It seemed that Gu Jiuci had been beaten heavily by Huo Mingche last night! She was eager to find out what had happened.Gu Jiuci mentally rolle
"Zhan Ying will come to pick you up and bring you to the company.""Am I having lunch with you?"Gu Jiuci's eyes lit up as she questioned him.Standing nearby, Zhan Ying could hear their conversation and he couldn't help wildly ridiculing her in his mind."The quarterly meeting usually runs for an entire day. Each time, the senior management would take only 10 minutes to have some snacks before continuing the meeting. How could the master put down such an important meeting to have lunch with a little girl like you...?" "Okay.""Zhan Ying, go pick up the mistress. Everyone else, the meeting will conclude in 10 minutes."The chairman hung up the call and issued these instructions as he turned around.Zhan Ying was speechless.He suddenly felt that fate had slapped him hard across the face and then asked him, "Does your face hurt?""Yes, sir!" Zhan Ying replied sullenly.He turned and walked out of the meeting room, leaving behind the group of senior management petrified on th
Gu Jiuci sat down on the sofa in a flourish, letting out a satisfied sigh. Life was simply great!Huo Mingche turned his body sideways slightly to observe Gu Jiuci. She was lying on the sofa beside him, completely unworried. An abundance of life and energy sparkled in her eyes.It seemed so unreal, as if he was hallucinating, and it made him feel very uneasy.Just as Gu Jiuci shut her eyes, a jacket fell onto her. The man's low and pleasing sound rang out beside her."Have a rest.""Rest after eating? What will I do if I become as fat as a pig?"Suddenly, Gu Jiuci fluttered her eyes and looked at him, wanting to see how he would reply."I can afford to support you if that happens."All of a sudden, the man's lips arched gently as a smile briefly appeared on his lips. Even though it was only for a while, it was an unforgettable memory for her.Gu Jiuci stared blankly at Huo Mingche. The mood was just right. The man looked at her with gentleness and reached his arm out. Just as
"It's fine."Huo Mingche replied gently before turning his head back, sweeping his cold gaze across the managers who dared to peek at Gu Jiuci earlier on.Those that were caught by him were incredibly frightened. They immediately lowered their heads to focus on the computers in their hands.Gu Jiuci observed for a while longer. It was only after noticing that the meeting had resumed and that they seemed to be completely undistracted by her that she lowered her head back down to her iPad and continued scrolling.At this moment, a WeChat message notification popped out. It was from her second brother.Second Brother: "Jiuci! Were you okay yesterday? Dad has locked me indoors and won't allow me to visit you!"After seeing the message, Gu Jiuci suddenly recalled that she was seized and imprisoned by Huo Mingche in her past life. After her second eldest brother learned about that, he insisted on rushing to the Phoenix Lodge to save her. However, their father, Gu Qingyuan, discovered h
The angry voice rang out over the public announcement system three times in a row. Even the students of Class F, who were usually noisy and disregarded the school rules, quieted down."Gu Jiuci! Judging from Maniac Liang's tone, I bet you're going to be expelled this time, eh?"Huang Lili looked at Gu Jiuci with both hands crossed in front of her chest, rejoicing at her enemy's misfortune."Don't worry... I think there's a better chance of you getting expelled before they even consider doing that to me."Gu Jiuci could not even bother to spare her offensive classmate a glance. She stood up slowly and tucked both her hands into her bag before breezing out of the classroom.When she reached the Teacher's Room, she saw that all of the teachers of Class F had already arrived.Director Liang was seated at his desk, looking extremely stern. Even Xu Yun'er was seated on a chair beside him.Gu Jiuci curled her lips coldly."As expected, Xu Yun'er has made her move after I mentioned the
"I believe you."The man gave his answer the moment she asked her question. There wasn't a trace of hesitation or suspicion.His reply came so fast that even Gu Jiuci was startled. "He believes me... this easily?"Huo Mingche gently pressed down on her shoulder, indicating that she should sit. Looking at the girl's red-rimmed eyes, a rage rose in his heart and a cold viciousness grew in his eyes."Young Master Huo, in this exam, Jiuci went from the last-ranked student in her grade to being the top-ranked student..."Xu Yun'er had not expected that Huo Mingche would still choose to believe Gu Jiuci under these circumstances. Jealousy befuddled her mind and she spoke without any subtlety, purposely reminding everyone of Gu Jiuci's unusual grades.Gu Jiuci examined the devil's expression carefully. Even after hearing Xu Yun'er's words, the expression on the man's face didn't change in the slightest.The eyes could not lie. In his eyes, Gu Jiuci even seemed to feel that he believed
