“But Elder Sister, you said that I’ll stop hurting once I take those sleeping pills, so I bought them because I’m scared of pain. I always feel uncomfortable when I wake up, which is why I get angry,” Gu Xi muttered.It turned out that Gu Xue’er was the one that had orchestrated everything. It made complete sense to Xing Beiyan since Xixi was not courageous enough to commit suicide.Xing Beiyan glared at Gu Xue’er as if he wished she was dead.“Drag her away, I want her out of my sight,” he ordered coldly.“No, no, Big Brother Xing, please don’t treat me like this. I beg you, don’t take me away.”Once Gu Xue’er heard Xing Beiyan’s order, the color drained from her face as she started wailing.“Son-in-law, let’s talk first. Xue’er is a naive girl, she must not have known that Xixi would actually commit suicide at that time. After all, she’s still Xixi’s elder sister. Please, I beg of you, please have mercy on her.” Madam Gu was terrified as well. She knew what would happen to her daught
Since the Xing family had enormous power and influence, an incident like that had naturally generated quite a stir. Xing Beiyan was affected terribly by this because their enemies had taken the opportunity to publicize things even further.Gu Xi had despised him back then and had even said that he deserved it behind his back. She never once realized that she was the one that had caused everything.Regret filled her as she thought about it.Gu Xi admitted that, from the very beginning, she was extremely unwilling to marry Xing Beiyan. In order to escape the marriage later on, she made a lot of mistakes in the name of the Gu family. In the fourth year of their marriage, she caused a major accident because she was drunk yet Xing Beiyan bared the responsibility for her regardless of everything, causing him to be beaten down by the Xing family.It was then that Gu Xi immediately realized the ones that had told her they would help her no matter what, the family that said they loved her uncon
Aunt Wang exclaimed in surprise at Gu Xi’s voice. When she turned around to see the hard-to-handle Young Madam, she felt her heart drop.Did she think they were being too slow?“All of you hurry up now, can’t you see Young Madam is waiting?” Aunt Wang stated quickly after she noticed everyone trembling with fear.Nobody expected the Young Madam, who usually never returned home, to suddenly run into the kitchen.“Don’t be so scared, everyone. I’m just here to take a look at things, I’m not even hungry yet.” The bad temper Gu Xi had in her previous life had made the maids of the house hate her. Although they never showed it outwardly, they would always gossip about her behind her back.Most of them usually vented about how unfair it was to Xing Beiyan.However, she wanted to live a comfortable life this time so, naturally, she would need to get along well with these people.“Young Madam, you may wait outside. We’ll be done soon,” Aunt Wang said politely.“It’s okay, I can help out. I wan
What?Did they hear Xing Beiyan correctly?He did not even chew the piece of fruit once before he swallowed it!Gu Xi’s eyes shifted into crescents, her happiness was evident.Nobody knew that even Gu Xi, who had been born again, did not know what exactly Xing Beiyan liked to eat.As long as she was the one offering the food, even if it was poisonous, Xing Beiyan would swallow it without hesitation.Therefore, Gu Xi naively assumed that he did love eating what she had made.Noticing that she was reaching for another piece, Aunt Wang quickly rushed over to say, “Young Master, Young Madam, the food is ready.”This earned her a dissatisfied stare from her Young Master.Very well, it was obvious that Aunt Wang’s kindness had not been accepted since the Young Master liked that his wife was feeding him.Sweat beaded lightly on everyone’s foreheads.“Let’s eat, we should eat first.” Gu Xi had reacted to it a moment too late. She patted her forehead lightly before pulling him to the dining tab
Since Gu Xi could help her family and the love of her life, Gu Xue’er decided to focus on this point, which made it hard for Gu Xi to reject her.At that time, Gu Xue’er had vowed that if they succeeded, they would do everything in their power to help Gu Xi with the divorce.Thus, Gu Xi foolishly agreed.Therefore, news that was originally only known by a few people on the inside had been disclosed. The Gu family even took the opportunity to publicize it further by selling the news to other companies. In the process of earning a lot of money through selling the news, they also sold their decency.As for Gu Xue’er, the person behind everything, she was naturally praised endlessly by her father. She joined the Gu Family Group’s Board of Directors before she graduated university, and was even brought along to most meetings by her father, making her famous.What was ridiculous about the entire thing was that Gu Xi was even happy for Gu Xue’er.At that time, Gu Xi truly did see them as her
Back then, Xing Beiyan believed that the young girl was amazing because his wounds actually stopped hurting right after she blew on them.He wanted to be with her. That way, he would never have to be afraid of pain again. Xing Beiyan held firmly onto this belief, even though the young girl had already forgotten him. “It’s not your fault. I shouldn’t have forced you like that.” He let out a sigh. “Well then, let’s live a good life together from now on, shall we? I won’t act willfully anymore,” Gu Xi said while she thought, ‘I want to love you properly.’Her eyes grew slightly red, but she still could not bring herself to say that last sentence.“Okay, Xixi. You said it yourself, so don’t regret it.” Xing Beiyan’s heart thudded. Was his Xixi truly willing? In any case, he did not want to let go of her again. “Xixi will never regret it,” she promised solemnly. Xing Beiyan felt his heart tremble.“Will you agree to my request?” Gu Xi lifted her face and looked at him. “Yes, you can
It was mainly because of the assistance Gu Tianxiang had received from Gu Xi’s mother’s family that he managed to establish and develop the Gu Family Group. Thus, naturally, Gu Xi owned fifteen percent of the company’s shares ever since it was first founded. Her mother held thirty percent, but her shares were now owned by Gu Xi’s maternal grandfather, so Gu Tianxiang never dared to touch those shares.The remaining twenty-five percent were held by other shareholders.If Gu Xi wished to take back the Gu Family Group, she would have to begin by acquiring these shares. Her maternal grandfather loved her dearly but refused to tell her anything about the shares after Gu Tianxiang used to repeatedly hint at Gu Xi to ask him about them. This showed that he was still very wary of the Gu family. It was because not long after her mother’s death, Gu Tianxiang brought Li Xuemei, who was Madam Gu now, and their daughter home. Gu Xue’er was only a few months older than Gu Xi. This was unbelievabl
Gu Xi had to attend class today. After all, she was only in her second year of university. Ever since she got married to Xing Beiyan, she never went back to university out of shame. However, skipping class was out of the question at this point. She had to go back to campus. If she did not, how was she supposed to get her revenge against that girl?‘I must regain everything I’ve lost!’ Gu Xi hid the coldness in her eyes and hurriedly got up to wash her face and rinse her mouth. “Young Madam.” Butler Wang came forward to welcome her politely and respectfully as soon as she went downstairs. “You’re planning to go out?”“Yes! I’m going to campus. Where’s… Young Master Xing?” When Gu Xi looked around and did not see him, she felt somewhat disappointed but figured that, at this time, he should be already at work.“Young Master has gone to the company.” Butler Wang seemed rather astounded to hear her say that she was planning to attend class. Gu Xi nodded and carried her backpack while sa
