Gu Xi certainly wanted to go home with Xing Beiyan this time. Otherwise, she would be giving Ruan Meng’er an opportunity to enter the picture.Gu Xi was no idiot.The banquet would be ending very late and since Gu Xi kept to a regular schedule, she would usually be asleep by this time, which meant her eyelids felt extremely heavy at that point.However, she was also afraid that Xing Beiyan would ask her to leave after discovering she was sleepy, so she pushed herself to stay awake. She could not wait to lean her entire body against Xing Beiyan though.Xing Beiyan would glance at her once in a while and once he noticed her lifeless eyes, which betrayed her sleepiness, his lips quirked into a small smile and he finally said, “Let’s go home.”The pair of them left the banquet hall, Ruan Meng’er still following behind.It was obvious she planned to follow them home.Gu Xi watched her move directly to the passenger seat, slightly taken aback, before she looked at Xing Beiyan. “Why is
“So she didn’t let you follow them?” Xing Yao’s voice suddenly sounded sharp.“That’s probably not it, but since she’s never seen me before, she probably misunderstood the relationship I had with Big Brother Xing. She seemingly thought that I had ulterior motives for taking care of Big Brother Xing and wanted to snatch him from her so she didn’t want me to follow them…” Ruan Meng’er continued sadly, “I never had that intention to begin with so how could she think of me that way?”“Isn’t that too much? She doesn’t like my cousin anyway, even going as far as to threaten to kill herself if they didn’t get divorced. Now that someone wants to take care of him for her, shouldn’t she be happy?” Second Master Xing’s youngest daughter, Xing Yuan, grumbled in dissatisfaction.“That’s nonsense.” Second Master Xing glared at his daughter.“What do you mean by nonsense! Why did you scold our daughter when she’s speaking the truth? If Little Yan hadn’t handled the entire thing in time, just imag
“Bad intentions!” Old Madam Xing roared. “I’ll get Little Yan to bring her over tomorrow. I want to see if she thinks an old woman like me has bad intentions!” The old woman harrumphed, her bright eyes burning with rage as she slammed her dragon-headed walking stick onto the floor, before turning to walk back up the stairs.Ruan Meng’er quickly followed and comforted her. “Grandma, don’t get angry. It’s bad for your health.”“Don’t worry. Grandma will definitely seek justice for you tomorrow!” The old woman patted her hand lightly, her eyes still burning with rage towards Gu Xi. “I’m sure you must’ve felt very wronged when you went to the banquet today.”“As long as it’s to help Grandma, Meng’er doesn’t mind…” Ruan Meng’er shook her head but nobody saw the cunning look in her lowered gaze.…“What? Go to the old Xing residence?” Gu Xi leaped off the couch and stared in shock at Butler Wang, who was dressed in a suit with not a single hair out of place on his head.“Yes, Old Madam
The next day.Gu Xi, who was all dressed up and ready to leave for the old Xing residence, was taken by surprise when she heard that Xing Beiyan would be going there straight from his office.“He isn’t coming back to pick me up?” Gu Xi asked sullenly.“Young Master said you don’t need to go,” Butler Wang answered, still reverent and respectful.“Huh?” Gu Xi’s face fell. This was a request from Old Madam Xing so she knew if Xing Beiyan found out she was going, her days would be much more difficult. Besides, maybe he thought that she did not want to go so he went to the residence on his own.However, if Gu Xi did not show up at the residence, who knows what fight the Xing family would pick with him over it?Gu Xi did not want Xing Beiyan to bear all those malicious insults because of her in this life!Therefore, even if she disliked the thought, she needed to be there too!“Prepare the car and send me there!” She sprung up from her seat and ordered seriously.“This…” Butler Wang
“Despite what I just said, my husband is priceless to me so I’m afraid you can’t afford to pay for him,” Gu Xi said with a small smile.“You!” Old Madam Xing roared once she heard this.“I’m only speaking the truth or do you think that your grandson is nothing more than an item that can be valued using money?” Gu Xi furrowed her eyebrows as she stared at the old woman. “Then I’m so sorry, but I’m! Not! Selling!”Xing Beiyan, who was burning with rage, was stunned.What did she say?He was priceless to her?His rage had now dissipated entirely and his gaze was now one of shock and surprise instead. Even that frozen heart of his felt like it had completely melted and was beating profusely in his chest.“What do you mean!” Old Madam Xing raged as she slammed a fist onto the table, springing to her feet.“Exactly what it sounds like…” Gu Xi answered lazily.“Good! That’s great!” The finger Old Madam Xing was pointing at her trembled lightly; in all her years of life, this was the
“Darling, are you unhappy that I showed up?” Gu Xi asked in slight disappointment, her lips pursed.“I’m very happy.” Xing Beiyan did not turn to look at her, only answering after a moment of silence.“Then why do you look like that?” ‘If you’re happy, why are you so calm?’ Gu Xi wondered.Their car gradually pulled to a stop in front of their house. The surrounding area was dark, almost gloomily because only the dim street lights were on. Finally, Xing Beiyan turned to look at Gu Xi. “I’m happy you showed up to speak for me but Xixi, do you understand? As a man, I would’ve preferred to stand in front of you to shield you from the wind and rain.”Gu Xi felt her nose sting and she almost burst out in tears.She wanted to say, ‘I want you to do that too, I want it so much’. However, when she hid under his wings in her last life, she was taught a lesson with her own life, which had made her unable to set her mind at ease anymore.What she wanted to do in this life was to stand by
“Go shower so we can get to bed,” Xing Beiyan said while stroking the back of Gu Xi’s head.Gu Xi nodded her head eagerly before entering the bathroom. A while later, she emerged in her pajamas.“Slow down, you’re going to trip,” warned the man leaning against the headboard of the bed. He had on a pair of gold-framed glasses, looking elegant yet slightly sensual as he lifted his head to look at her.“I don’t want to, I can’t wait to be in my darling’s arms.” Gu Xi purred.“Listen to yourself…” Xing Beiyan set his book down and chuckled, pulling her into his embrace. “You should sleep soon.”“Okay, a kiss first~ Good night.” Gu Xi lifted her head to peck him lightly on the lips before she hid in the blanket out of embarrassment.“Good night~” Xing Beiyan was stunned for a moment before a smile pulled at his lips as he replied softly into her ear.The next day, Gu Xi woke up very early and left the house as soon as possible.Since she did not have classes in the morning, she want
Although Mo Han had seen Gu Xi’s abilities before, it was his first time seeing her mirror each move perfectly after watching the video once. It was just like his master said, she really was abnormal.The dance of three minutes and fifty seconds ended quickly.Luo Yang and the rest were still sitting in their places with looks of disbelief on their faces, their breakfast still in their hands. When Gu Xi finally walked over to them, she raised an eyebrow and said, “Didn’t you guys want a dance battle against me? Let’s go!”“That, that, that…” Luo Yang stood up, stammering with a doubting look on his face. “You, you, you…”“I, I, I… What did I do?” Gu Xi laughed. “Did I dance terribly?”“Didn’t all of you want to know why I keep obeying her orders?” Mo Han stood up, a look of helplessness on his face.“...”“It’s because I lost a dance battle against her…”Therefore, they understood that anything Gu Xi said went as long as they never battled against her in dancing!…“We have a
The two of them and the fox sat down at the table. As soon as the food came up, they began to eat happily. Tongtong was thinking that he should be graceful, but when the little fox jumped onto the table and started to grab the food, he couldn't help it.Gu Xi looked at them, looked like they were fighting, and then looked up at the people staring at them in shock. She coughed awkwardly and patted the little fox who looked like a starving ghost. "Be graceful. No one will fight with you."The little fox looked up at her and then lowered its head. Although it was still fast, it didn't look as horrible as before.Sure enough, it could understand what she said.Gu Xi nodded with satisfaction. She thought that if she had time, she would teach the little fox to be more sensible in case there would be such a miserable scene when she would be watched when she went out for a meal next time.She ordered a lot but didn't overeat. Tongtong was still young anddidn't eat much either.All the food
After getting out of the elevator, Gu Xi took Tongtong out of the building.There were not many pedestrians outside. Maybe it was too hot at this time, so no one went out. Most of them stayed indoors.With only a few people, the street was quiet. However, Gu Xi's appearance disturbed the peace.The combination of the adult and kid was too eye-catching.The little fox was very cute. Coupled with its silver hair and sky-blue eyes, it was obviously a rare species. Everyone looked at it curiously.Gu Xi was also a top beauty. No matter where she went, she had a 100% attention.Although tTongtong was a little thin, his facial features were very prominent. Due to malnutrition, his yellow and slightly curly hair did not have any effect on him. He was more like a foreign noble. His skin was very white and tender, and under the sunlight, it was almost transparent. Besides, his slightly narrowed big eyes with thick brows, and the temperament which did not belong to his age, attracted peopl
Uncle Li shook his head helplessly when he thought of Nan Sheng and Nan Kui, who had ventured into the dark forest to save their father."This must be Young Master Xing's wife. Congratulations on your reunion." He shifted his gaze to Gu Xi.Gu Xi smiled politely."This is the room prepared for you. Call me if you have any problems. You may feel wronged to live here. After all, the situation in the Nan family is not very good, so..." Uncle Li said apologetically as he took the two people to the reception room of the building."It doesn't matter. We've thought about staying here for a while. It's naturally the best place to live here." Xing Beiyan nodded.After saying a few more words, Uncle Li left.The family of four entered the room.The room was very big. According to Xing Beiyan's request, they specially prepared an extra room. Gu Xi knew what he meant and did not say anything about it.The furniture in the living room was well-arranged and very beautiful. She opened the cur
The little fox was not interested. It lay on Gu Xi's leg and fell asleep.In fact, when Gu Xi came, she wanted to let the little fox go. After all, the forest was the best place for it to survive, but the little fox followed her resolutely.Now that it was cleaned up, it was really cute. A small ball was cuddling on her legs. If it didn't open its mouth, who could imagine that it was also a fierce beast?The helicopter stopped on the roof of a building.There were already several men in suits waiting downstairs on the roof."Second Young Master, Third Young Miss, and Young Master Xing," they greeted them respectfully."Uncle Li, how's my father?" Nan Sheng walked up to him worriedly."His condition is not very stable. We haven't found a way to relieve the toxins." Uncle Li, the leading man, frowned and shook his head."We found the herbs." Nan Sheng quickly handed him the herbs.The man looked happy. "That's good, that's good. Sir can be saved. Come with me."Everyone followed
Mo Fan and Leng Yang stayed in the Dark Domain, saying that they wanted to join the Dark Domain. Yun Fei didn't refuse, saying that they had to wait for the master of the Dark Domain to come back and decide, so he kept them behind.This time, Yun Fei took them directly to a tunnel."This place leads directly to the periphery of the forest. After all, we are in a hurry to complete the task. We can't break through the forest every time," Yun Fei said.Hearing this, everyone heaved sighs of relief.After all, the forest was too dangerous. If they walked again, they were not sure if they could get out alive, or how many more people would be lost.After bidding farewell to Yun Fei and the others, they entered the tunnel. After walking for half a day, they saw the stairs.When they walked up, they found that it was a dry well on the periphery of the forest.When they saw the sun again, they finally left the dangerous forest. If so many people hadn't died, if they hadn't found the herb
Gu Xi raised her head and looked at the woman who was exactly the same as her. She was looking at her man shyly. Gu Xi's mouth curled coldly.As expected, she was no different from her. No wonder Xing Beiyan didn't see through her at first.But this delicate character was not hers!She lowered her head."Let's talk about it when we get out." Xing Beiyan said then.Ruan Meng'er nodded and walked over. She wanted to hold his hand, but when she saw him walking away, her expression froze for a moment. However, when she thought that he might be angry because of what happened yesterday, she did not think much of it and followed him with a sweet smile.Gu Xi hid her gaze.When she went out, she would make trouble for this woman and see who sent her to fake her.After picking up the herb, everyone quickly walked out.Everyone was waiting for them, anxiously outside the glass door. When they saw them running over, they finally breathed a sigh of relief."How come there seems to be ano
"Okay, okay, okay!" Hearing his consent, Nan Kui immediately cheered and quickly agreed.Everyone tied cotton at the soles of their shoes in advance, so that there would be no sound when they walked on the ground.They entered the elevator and went to the underground laboratory again.Outside the glass door, only one or two figures could be seen swaying not far away."Are you ready? You only have five minutes," said Yun Fei.Everyone nodded.Yun Fei opened the glass door.They walked in quickly.The greenhouse was not far away, right in the corner.But two monsters were swaying there.Everyone's pace was very fast.If they didn't deal with those monsters first, they wouldn't be able to make it through. The main thing was not to disturb them.The weapons were silenced, and they fired a few times. However, the two figures only shook a few times and did not die.Everyone's expressions changed.Sensing the movement, the two monsters tilted their heads and began to approach th
Gu Xi also felt a little sleepy. Seeing the two little guys coming out, she also walked in.The next morning.Judging from the monitor, it was obvious that those monsters had completely dispersed.Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and started planning how to get in.As long as these monsters hear no sound, they would not attack people.This undoubtedly solved many problems.However, only few people could go in, so Xing Beiyan only chose four people to follow him in, and the others stayed at the exit to help them.Yang Fan, Nan Sheng, Mo Fan, and An Yi were chosen."I'll go with you." Gu Xi was worried about the wounds on Xing Beiyan's body and wanted to go in with him."Mommy, I want to go too!" Seeing that she was going in, Tongtong hurriedly stood up.Gu Xi just thought that he didn't understand the danger inside. She touched his head and refused, "No, you can't go in. It's too dangerous inside.""It's okay. I can protect myself and mommy." Tongtong clenched his fists and
This little guy was too smart.He was so angry that he gnashed his teeth.However, Gu Xi took it. Seeing Xing Beiyan's expression, she felt even more aggrieved. It seemed that if he disagreed again, she would run away from home."Okay, okay, I agree, okay?" In the end, he compromised helplessly. Then he took the clothes and went to the bathroom angrily.Gu Xi smiled, Tongtong smiled, and the little fox also laughed.When Xing Beiyan came out again, Gu Xi was lying on the side reading a book, while Tongtong and the little fox were sleeping in the middle of bed against her. Gu Xi was reading a book, and the two were looking at her. The scene was a little warm and pleasing.However, he still walked over with a dark face. He picked them up one by one with a disgusted look on his face. "You're so dirty. Go wash up and sleep."Tongtong and the little fox stared at him with their big, bony eyes, almost grimacing. However, when they looked into the man's deep and threatening eyes, the t
