At this time, the bull's eye had already been passed through. Murong Yunxi actually achieved the score of hitting the target on the spot 10 consecutive times.
Jumping up excitedly, Murong Yunxi turned around and gripped Fourth's arms. She jumped merrily as if she were still a little girl. "Fourth, I actually have gotten a full score! I have hit the target on the spot 10 consecutive times!"
Murong Yunxi did not notice Fourth's peculiarity at this moment at all. She continued showing off her high score. She was like a child who had earned a full credit and was begging for candy from her parents.
With Murong Yunxi's delicate and soft hands placed on his arms, Fourth immediately felt that his skin seemed to be burning. It was so hot that even his body became hot and dry.
Moving his Adam's apple up and down, Fourth looked at her as if he were staring at prey. He said dully, "Should I say you are heartless? Don't you have any idea ho
At this moment, Murong Xu, who had just revived, sat up all of a sudden. Disregarding the pain in his body completely, he was as impatient as a restless lion. He said then, "Mom, who told you I agreed to go on a blind date? I definitely won't do that!" Casting a sidelong glance at Murong Xu, Zhuang Yaru then walked out of the ward with the cellphone in her hands. "Oh-oh, Qinger, kindly continue. I am all ears now! ...Everything will be fine. No worries, my son has to obey me..." As the door of the ward was closed, Zhuang Yaru's voice died away in the corridor. Pulling a long face, Murong Haotian walked forward and pressed his hands on Murong Xu's shoulder. Pushing Murong Xu, who was about to get out of the bed, back forcibly, he said, "Where are you going? Lie back on the bed obediently! Since you have ended up this miserably, why are you still torturing yourself? The way I see it, I am just too indulgent with you!" "Dad! Why a
"Well, Xuanxuan seemed a little down before. I didn't want to upset her, so we haven't talked lately. The news... I didn't know about it either." Gu Chengkang was telling the truth. He really hadn't known about the news. He did not know how to explain it at the moment, so he had to tell the truth. However, there was still a suspicion that could not be confirmed in Zhuang Yaru's mind. She still couldn't be sure whether Murong Xu was telling the truth. "Well, if Xuanxuan is really pregnant, is Mr. Gu still going to be against this marriage? Our family is willing to take responsibility! In fact, at first, I was glad to accept the two children's relationship. Unfortunately, Mr. Gu opposed it. If Xuanxuan is really pregnant, we hope that Mr. Gu will give this matter further thought." "..." Gu Chengkang seemed to be an unreasonable parent. Things became really twisted in his mind. Suddenly, he didn't know what to do.
Murong Yunxi, who was silently overwhelmed, looked more concerned for Gu Yuxuan and Murong Xu, yet still watched Gu Chengkang with absolute certainty and sincerity. "Uncle Gu, I wouldn't think badly of you. After all, you have a tie of kinship with Xuanxuan as her father and any decisions you make for her are with her best interest at heart. Besides, no one has the ability to predict what will happen in the future, or if our wishes will come true. I only know that Gu Yuxuan and Murong Xu really love each other and they are desperately longing to stay together. Shouldn't we let them stay together if we truly think for their good? "Xiao Xi, you are such a thoughtful girl!" Gu Chengkang's irrelevant response shocked Murong Yunxi a little and left her speechless, making her feel a little confused about Gu Chengkang's attitude. "…" The waiter served them their dishes one by one. "Let's eat first!"
Murong Xu remained cold. He looked at the woman sideways as if looking at something he had no interest in at all. Even though he had noticed her embarrassed expression, he acted like it had nothing to do with him. Upon sensing that the atmosphere was becoming more and more awkward, Zhuang Yaru stood up in a hurry to save the situation. "Well, Xiaoxu, mind your attitude. You're really impolite. Don't make people laugh at you. Take a seat first!" Zhuang Yaru tried to pull Murong Xu down as she spoke. Murong Xu frowned slightly, looking even more displeased. However, for fear that Zhuang Yaru might lose face, he mimicked Zhuang Yaru and sat down reluctantly. When he saw Murong Xu sit down, Zhuang Yaru sighed in relief silently. She smiled at the two women sitting across from her and said, "I'm sorry to embarrass you, Mrs. Fang. Xiaoxu doesn't behave this way under normal circumstances. I am to blame because I didn't
Gu Yuxuan enjoyed the warmth that she had long desired. It felt like they had been apart for a century and would never be willing to leave each other again. "Xu, I've missed you so much!" "We should have held on longer." "Xu, my father has approved of us getting married!" "Ah? Really?" —— Meanwhile, in Gu Chengkang's study... As he watched the couple downstairs embrace sweetly, Gu Chengkang smiled bitterly. Then, he turned back and walked away from the French window. Suddenly, his phone rang. He walked to the desk to pick up the phone but saw an unfamiliar number. "Hello?" "Is this Gu Chengkang?" A man's deep voice was heard from the other side. "Yes. Who's this?" "It's Murong Haotian." "Oh? What's up?""I'd like to talk to you about the children. Are you available to have a me
Gong Yu flew off on a business trip to Korea with Seventh Brother this afternoon while Niannian was picked up by Murong Qingtian. Only Murong Yunxi and Murong Ye were left at home. Murong Ye sat on the sofa with a laptop placed on his lap, reading through the documents as he watched television with Murong Yunxi. "Bro, if you have work to do, go to the study. You will be very distracted out here." "No worries! I'll keep you company. Now that only the two of us are at home, you will be very lonely by yourself." Murong Yunxi shifted her body and cozied up next to Murong Ye. As she clung onto Murong Ye's arm affectionately, she leaned her small head on Murong Ye's shoulder. "Oh! You truly are the Nation's Good Brother. It feels great to have a brother!" Although it was rare for Murong Yunxi to be coquettish, Murong Ye really liked the way she was playing coquettishly with him. His heart was filled with a
Murong Ye knit his brows suspiciously and asked coldly, "News? What news?" "Then, you are here for..." The woman at the front desk shivered as she looked at Murong Ye. Although he was handsome, he looked very scary. Murong Ye glanced at her. The neurotic look on her face made him feel sick. Thus, he directly walked past the front desk and moved toward the elevator. Murong Yunxi wanted to console the girl, who was obviously scared of Murong Ye. Thus, she grinned at her. "Just leave us alone. We'll go by ourselves." Then, she followed Murong Ye into the elevator. They went all the way to Jia Tianxin's ward. However, just as they reached the door, they heard the child inside crying loudly. Irritated by the crying sound, Murong Ye frowned. Murong Yunxi, who had experience nursing children, just slightly raised her brows, opened the door and walked inside. She saw nothing but the infant in t
"I'll raise the child!" The voice came from the door. Murong Yunxi and Murong Ye turned toward the door. There was no expression on Lian Can's face but her puffy, but her bloodshot eyes were filled with absolute certainty. She stepped inside and walked over to them, looking as if she had to exert great effort to make every step. She walked up to Murong Yunxi and brought the young child into her embrace. Having learned the basics of taking care of a baby in the past few days, she could now carry the child with ease. "Someone from my family will be here to take this child later. I'll settle Tianxin's matters. You can leave now." Lian Can sounded both apathetic and distant. Even though she wasn't blunt, it was obvious that she didn't welcome them anymore and wanted them to leave. "Lian Can, you can let us know if you need anything." Murong Yunxi looked calm but her gaze remained fixed on the child with faint sympathy
Lu Yang also saw Murong Yunxi and Gong Yu and also felt a little bit shocked. He stepped forward to greet them. "Xiao Xi, Gong Yu, why are you here?" Murong Yunxi looked at Lu Yang with a smile. Many years had passed by, the past had gone with the wind. Lu Yang was just one of her good friends and they seemed to be more comfortable in this way. "Yeah, we came for a movie, but I didn't like it, so we left before the ending!" Subsequently, Murong Yun turned to a woman behind Lu Yang who looked familiar. "Lu Yang, is this your...?" Lu Yang put on a bitter smile. "Oh, you know that I am in a situation of being forced to get married. This is a girl that my big brother introduced to me for a blind date." Lu Yang had nothing to hide because he had no intention to get married to this woman, so he shared his thoughts directly to avoid any misunderstandings, let alone he had no intention to make her his girlfriend. This woman did not rea
Twelve years later. "Luoluo, come to help me!" Lying face down on her big bed, Murong Niannian complained to her good friend through her mobile phone. She was simply so depressed inside. Yan Chuluo was Murong Niannian's best friend, and their friendship was very solid. Although Yan Chuluo was five years older than Murong Niannian, Murong Niannian, a mature girl, did not have any difficulty communicating with her. Their relationship was even more harmonious than those of her peers. "Well, my dear girl, I'm too busy to attend to you now. I even don't have any leisure for myself," replied Yan Chuluo, who was reading the latest military newspaper on a closestool. Yan Chuluo actually could not attend to her talented friend at the moment because she fell in love with a man. More exactly, she fell in love with him in secret only at one glance. "Well, you just went to receive military training. By the way, your grandfathe
S City— The doorbell was ringing outside. After finding that it was a courier delivering a parcel, Gu Yuxuan answered the door and signed for the delivery. After closing the door, Gu Yuxuan leaned against the door, overwhelmed by sadness. The express delivery belonged to Yun Muxi, which should be her admission letter according to the mailing address. However, Yun Muxi had disappeared for almost a month. Gu Yuxuan stood with her back against the door and slowly slid down on the ground as her tears kept falling down. Gu Yuxuan held the parcel and put one hand on her knees, covering her eyes with the other. Her tears streamed down through her fingers, and she cried silently. In fact, she had cried countless times this month. Father Yun had gone to Africa and kept working after arriving there, so that they were out of touch. Neither could she convey the news of Xiao Xi's disappearance to Father Yun, nor did she know how to tell oth
The bottle was in the shape of a gourd and was smooth and delicate. What was the most special part was the handle of the bottle, which was also made of a little gourd. The two gourds were cleverly connected by a vine. It looked like the bigger gourd was holding the small one while the small one wrapped onto the large one. The lip was the root of the vine, showing a natural and smooth combination. The bottle's shape was delicate and refined. Every detail showed unique ingenuity, subtly revealing a sense of tenderness in its mellow lines. The two gourds were like a mother and daughter. The mother showed her infinite love for her daughter, while the daughter relied on her mother. The two were made of crystal-white porcelain, while the vine was lush green with no extra impurities. Duanmu Gongyu opened the lid and extended his nose to smell it. A rich smell of wine rushed to him with a faint fragrance like a kind of flower. Duanmu Gongyu could not tell what it
Duanmu Gongcheng felt somewhat shameless upon seeing Duanmu Gongyu's shock, and he lowered his head to say, "It's my fault! I am too... I hope you don't blame me." Duanmu Gongyu felt happy to remedy the misunderstanding with his brother and nodded while saying, "I don't blame you, Big Brother. I have arranged for my people to deal with those bad guys. You don't have to be worried." Duanmu Gongcheng could not adapt to this change and still felt embarrassed at the moment. He said, "Third Brother, you've just come back, so I came to check on your injury. Since you're fine, I should not bother you. You're so tired after a long journey. Have a rest and I will come to visit you later." Then, Duanmu Gongcheng asked to leave in a hurry. Nanny Wu suddenly felt embarrassed when only Duanmu Gongyu, Yun Muxi, and she were there. She said in a hurry, "My Lord, you should have a rest and I will go to prepare food for you. You must not have e
After pausing for a moment, Duanmu Gongyu stared fixedly at Hei Ye as if he had something to say. Hei Ye was confused by Duanmu Gongyu's actions and wondered if he had a problem, but he dared not to ask Duanmu Gongyu if the fear that he would enrage Duanmu Gongyu, who had been in anger during the past several days. Looking as if he had made up his mind, Duanmu Gongyu cleared his throat and his face blushed as he said with an unnatural expression, "Hmm... it seems... Xiao Xi... is angry at me..." Duanmu Gongyu stuttered as he did not how to express his thoughts, but the long-lasting cold war between Duanmu Gongyu and Yun Muxi made Hei Ye understand Duanmu Gongyu's meanings at once. Hei Ye said to Duanmu Gongyu in embarrassment, "Your Highness, I didn't have any experience in dealing with girls, so, I don't exactly know how to solve this, but... usually, in such a situation, men should take the initiative to coax women. Don't feel shy to do th
Yun Muxi felt at ease enjoying such a peaceful and beautiful moment. Her parents had been busy with their work and left her alone at home since she was a child, and luckily, she had a good friend, Xuanxuan, accompany her; otherwise, she would have left a lonely life. She was quite satisfied that now Duanmu Gongyu accompanied her, took care of her, and loved her. She enjoyed the peaceful moment quietly. ... At sunset, the carriage arrived in Xinyang City. As soon as they entered the city, Duanmu Gongyu sensed something strange. He said to Hei Ye in a cold tone, "Hei Ye, put on your guards." Since Duanmu Gongyu always had a keen instinct, Hei Ye put on his highest guard at Duanmu Gongyu's reminder. Lan Yun surveyed around warily and looked out for everything that would happen. Hei Ye drove the carriage to a tasteful hotel, which was neither the biggest one nor the most luxurious one in the city. The reason why he chose such an in
Before walking long, Yun Muxi came across Duanmu Gongyu. She cast her anger behind her back and said to him happily, "Look, Gong Yu, I found a puppy. Isn't it cute?" Duanmu Gongyu was allergic to animals, especially furry ones. He measured the puppy with a frown and a look of disdain. As if the puppy had sensed Duanmu Gongyu's hostility against it, it barked at him in a wary way. Duanmu Gongyu furrowed his eyebrows even deeply. A long while passed, and he finally replied, "No, not at all. It is not that friendly to me." Yun Muxi defended the puppy hurriedly by saying, "No, it's just too small and afraid of strangers." In Yun Muxi's arms, the puppy barked at Duanmu Gongyu warily once again. Still in a frown, Duanmu Gongyu said in a cold tone, "It does look unfriendly. It warned me to stay away from it." Right then, the puppy barked at Duanmu Gongyu several times more in a warning way. Yun Muxi stroked
The time needed for an incense stick to burn passed by in the blink of an eye. Lan Yun indeed came over carrying two big handfuls of skewers. Since they were in the wilderness and they had never seen how modern-day skewers looked, although the skewers he made were somewhat close, it was still different from the modern-day ones. The wooden sticks were thick, and the meat cubes were also bigger. The shapes were not cut into long shapes as they do in the modern world. Lan Yun's skewers looked more like tanghulu. But Yun Muxi was still amazed that he could deliver such great results so quickly. "Lan Yun, if I bring you to where I came from, you could earn quite a lot just by making lu chuan! You're basically god-speed." Lan Yun felt awkward after hearing it. He had put in so much effort to equip himself with all these skills just for him to go there and make lu chuan? This Miss Yun had such a wild imagination. Hei Ye was very alert
