“No!” Gu Xi instantly refused to. “Hmm?” Ye Xinhan looked at her in confusion and wondered, ‘Is this place so fun? ‘You actually don’t want to leave!’ “Why were you so agitated when you saw me then? Could it be that… You’ve been missing me?” He suddenly looked at her lovingly. Gu Xi could not help but roll her eyes. “That…” She looked at Ye Xinhan embarrassedly when she thought about what she wanted to say. ‘I didn’t want to look so excited, but I didn’t have a choice. I did intense exercises yesterday without realizing that my period is coming, so now I’m bleeding and suffering in pain because of cramps. The most frightening thing is that women’s products aren’t sold here!’ “What exactly happened to you?” Seeing as she was hesitant to speak, Ye Xinhan furrowed his eyebrows even more. Gu Xi lowered his head and mumbled shyly. Although she spoke softly, Ye Xinhan heard her. By the time Ye Xinhan realized what she meant, his expression actually turned stiff, which was
‘I wonder how Xing Beiyan is doing, I only hope that he won’t be mad at me once I’m out,’ Gu Xi thought to herself. She believed that the man would not forget her so easily. After all, in her past life, he was the only one who risked his life and put everything aside to save her when she was in danger. Therefore, Gu Xi knew that Ye Xinhan was lying. She was not concerned about what he said at all. The door to the level above was behind two muscular men. As long as Gu Xi defeated one of them, she could proceed to the next level. She had learned almost every technique that was previously performed by the mysterious man. Since the man was able to pass the test so easily, she was determined to do the same after getting this far. Gu Xi lifted her head and walked over resolutely, all while being stared at by many surprised looks. Wan City. “Where did Xixi go?” Gu Xi never showed up since the previous advertisement shoot, and her company was in a mess. Their crew was recentl
Everything was initially proceeding smoothly, but the lady whose name was Gu Xi broke the balance ever since she appeared. Even after returning to the scene for a long time, other than the rather popular TV drama, Hua Feifei was only invited for some small endorsements. How could she do things that required hard work and were not very rewarding? In the end, those damn people said that she treated them lightly, thought highly of herself just because she used to be the best actress, was a poser, and so on. Additionally, someone even exposed the face-slapping scene that she had previously shot with Gu Xue’er, hence everyone on the internet reprimanded her for being evil and ruthless! Hua Feifei almost died from being too pissed off. She only cooled down a bit when a rather famous variety show invited her. “The participants include the male and female leads from our drama, Yu Yue the famous singer, and…” The female assistant kept quiet after answering her halfway! She had not
Nonetheless, it felt quite good. Gu Xi had failed once when she attempted to advance to the sixth level. This was her second attempt. She was well-prepared. The man who was guarding the door had a grim look on his face as though he was the king of hell. A look from him was enough to make a person shiver with jelly legs. However, Gu Xi happened to be unafraid of eyes that could kill. After all, throughout her life, she had never met anyone with eyes more fearsome than Xing Beiyan’s. Therefore, the man at the door was actually the one who should feel dwarfed in Gu Xi’s presence. She smirked at the man provokingly before charging at him. Since Gu Xi had undergone weight training for a long time, her speed was amazing now that weights were not bound to her legs. Her body was so light that she could almost fly, causing the spectators to exclaim. The man instantly tensed up. He disregarded the fact that she was a lady, and punched straight at her face. While his moves s
“Why is it you?!” Gu Xi exclaimed. ‘Isn’t… Isn’t this the person whom I was secretly learning from at the first level? ‘I didn’t meet him at the other levels, I can’t believe that he has already arrived at the top level. ‘What a coincidence.’ Gu Xi did not think that she could catch up to the man. She was instantly excited. However, when Gu Xi noticed the man looking at her indifferently, she thought he had forgotten about her, hence she quickly reminded, “Do you remember me? I’m the one who was quietly learning from you, we’ve met before.” Gu Xi was probably the only one who would speak so confidently about having learned from someone in secret. The man twitched his mouth and nodded, but was still very cold. Gu Xi was unbothered and kept talking, “How long have you been up here? I just arrived, so I’m not sure if the final level is difficult. Have you attempted it before?” The man shook his head. Gu Xi then asked curiously, “My name is Gu Xi, what’s yours? Are you
Coincidentally, the two middle-aged men’s eldest young master was returning today, and the main family had organized a banquet for his safe return. Therefore, they were certain that their eldest young master would be delighted if they brought Gu Xi over. If their eldest young master was delighted, it would naturally be considered merit, and they would in turn be rewarded. All in all, they could get the best of both worlds! The eldest young master was reluctant to interact with females since young such that he was also indifferent toward his younger sister and his mother. As time passed, everyone thought that the eldest young master was an oddity because that behavior of his became more obvious as he grew older, hence the people from the main family were worried sick. After all, the eldest young master was the Ye family’s only seedling in his generation. If something about him was really off, the Ye family would face extinction! This was why Gu Xi’s appearance was like a stone t
Many people had filled the venue, where red wine, fruits, and cakes were served. The guests who walked around were dressed either in a suit and leather shoes or an exquisite evening gown. People were conversing with each other cheerfully. Xing Beiyan, who wore a black suit, stood in a corner without regarding the other guests. He was swirling a glass of blood-red wine between his long fingers while his deep and dark eyes wandered around the crowd as though he was searching for something. Although he stood in a quiet place, he was spotted by many upper-class ladies. After all, his disposition and attractiveness were bound to make him the center of attention. “Who’s that? He’s so handsome, but his eyes look scary,” a lady asked softly. “I’ve never seen him before too, he’s so good-looking! I wonder which family is that young master from, this is my first time seeing someone his age having such a formidable aura.” “Yes, I feel that he’s more fearsome than my dad. He doesn’t lo
Therefore, Xiao Yue responded with a face that said ‘my dad is Li Gang’*. “Do you know who I am? My brother’s Xiao Yan, and I’m sure you’ve heard of his name. If you’re sensible enough, you better treat me with a better attitude, and I’ll ask my older brother to give you a few pointers, or else…” Her face instantly darkened as she tried to threaten Xing Beiyan. Xing Beiyan sneered when he heard Xiao Yan’s name. As a result, Xiao Yue was seriously enraged! She was about to reprimand Xing Beiyan when the Ye family’s patriarch, Ye Tian, hurried over with some people. In actual fact, the Ye family did not invite anyone from the Xing family. After all, the previous incident had caused discord between both families, and it was also the first time Ye Tian’s son, whom he took pride in, was defeated by Xing Beiyan. Nonetheless, Ye Tian admired Xing Beiyan, who inherited the head position of the greatest family in the country and brought his family to a greater height. When Ye Tian hea
