On the second day of the New Year, while all households were still enjoying the festival, a scandal arrived quickly to overwhelm all the news of the day.
Murong Ye knocked on the door of Murong Yunxi's room. Only when he heard Murong Yunxi's answer from inside did Murong Ye push open the door and walk in.
Murong Yunxi was a little surprised to see Murong Ye. "Brother, weren't you going out today?"
Murong Ye placed a newspaper on the side table in front of Murong Yunxi, then asked her listlessly, "Yunxi, what's with this piece of news?"
Murong Yunxi looked at Murong Ye, puzzled, and picked up the newspaper.
After she gave a rough scan of the content, Murong Yunxi's delicate eyebrows pinched a little, and she spoke indifferently, "Brother, what do you think about it?"
"I 100 percent believe that my sister got dragged in innocently. I've always known who you are. I just wanted to know what that was abou
Murong Yunxi was surprised to find that the car had sped up. Between the left and right cars, their car nearly touched the two cars' rearview mirrors. However, it's not over yet. Gong Yu turned the steering wheel to the right, and then he spun the wheel sharply to the left. The car passed through the other two cars, and finally went in one lane. All this happened in an instant. Murong Yunxi's face was pale, but Gong Yu was relieved. Murong Yun's angry voice roared. "Are you crazy? That was dangerous!" Knowing that she was frightened, Gong Yu patted Murong Yunxi's head, then gently grasped her cold little hand. Murong Yunxi's rapid heartbeat gradually calmed down and she came to her senses. She looked at Gong Yu and said, "I'm fine, concentrate on driving." Gong Yu pulled his hand back and put it on the steering wheel. Murong Yunxi looked into the rearview mirror. The car behind them had disappeared and Gong Yu dro
Murong Yunxi looked around and found nothing unusual. She just felt that the night was getting colder and colder, and there was nothing else. "You are too sensitive. The paparazzo just went home. Let's go home. It's cold outside!" Morong Yunxi took Gong Yu's hand and hurried to Murong Ye's house. Gong Yu glanced around and found nothing strange. He felt relieved, though an anxious feeling still lingered in the air. They went through the gate and disappeared, and two people in the dark looked at each other and disappeared as well. It was rare for Murong Yunxi to leave work early. She found that she didn't know what to do the next when she came back from Gu Yuxuan's home. So she simply took a shower and went to bed early. Murong Yunxi's breathing became steady and she fell asleep, Gong Yu gently got up and went out of the door. He directly went to Murong Ye's room. Murong Ye opened the do
After Gong Yu pulled out a large suitcase and opened the wardrobe, he began to help Murong Yunxi pack up her things. When Murong Yunxi came out of the shower, Gong Yu was no longer in the room. A big suitcase near the window was open, inside which was neatly packed clothes. Gong Yu classified the clothes into different bags, including coats, underwear, shoes, cosmetics, and toiletries. They were all meticulously arranged by category. Murong Yunxi was shocked and was amazed at Gong Yu's thoughtfulness. She didn't remember to take all these items. The fact that Gong Yu could pack the luggage so neatly also surprised her. Gong Yu could use the most space-saving method to pack things. Murong Yunxi could not help wondering if she could bring these things back in their original appearance. The door was pushed open and Gong Yu came in with a pile of things in his hands. "Have you finished?" Gong Yu asked casually as he went over to th
Murong Yunxi ignored the crowd and went upstairs under the guidance of Zheng Ming. Murong Yunxi directly asked Zheng Ming to take her to the conference room. As for those people's disdain, Murong Yunxi did mind it a little bit. However, she wouldn't convince them with her appearance. She had her working ability to prove that she was a competent leader. Fortunately, Murong Yunxi had known about the branch office in City C before her business trip. At that time, she was trying to familiarize herself with the branch office and see if she could use the information in the project. She didn't expect that she would first use it to establish a prestige. Only by convincing people here could she use their help to get things done. This time, there had to be a lot of places in City C where she could use their assistance. If they couldn't help her whole-heartedly, the result would be doomed and she would be very tired. 10 minutes later, the heads of all
"Ms. Xi, we are going to meet Boss Lee of Tai Ding Group this evening, and we still have two and a half hours left, where do you want to go?" Fourth turned to ask Murong Yunxi. He did not give a sh*t to her before, but now things were different when he saw she had a style of leadership. Upon hearing the words, Murong Yunxi raised her head from watching her computer and thought for a while before replying, "How about going around the shopping mall nearby, we can buy some gifts to Niannian, Gong Yu and my bother since we are free now." Fourth nodded and said something to their driver. When it comes to shopping, C city was not as good as A city where people could find more choices. Murong Yunxi strolled around the shopping mall at random, but didn't find anything she liked, and then she walked out of the mall. Her interests ignited when she found by accident a small pedestrian street with dazzling stores along both sides besides t
Many times, some distance seemed very short but also quite far, and it was easy to see each other but hard to get close. The crowd was running in panic. The little girl was just three or five steps away from Murong Yunxi, but now it was as far as a hundred kilometers. People constantly kicked and stepped on Murong Yunxi and the little girl, but at the moment, Murong Yunxi couldn't see anyone except the little girl, a girl like Niannian. Murong Yunxi finally crawled her way to the little girl. As the earth shook more intensely, the shops on both sides began to collapse constantly, and people became more panic. Murong Yunxi held the little girl, who was crying in terror, in her arms tightly, and tried to calm her down and take her away as soon as possible. However, sometimes, you missed something and you'll miss it forever, just like now! Murong Yunxi was trying to stand up with the little girl in her arms, but with
The following day, Murong Ye and Gong Yu arrived in C City. Although all means of transportation had been interrupted in C City, fortunately, Murong Family not only had helicopters, but also had private airliners. It was hard for the airliners to find a landing place in C City, so, Murong Ye transferred five helicopters, accompanied by Second, Little Three and many retinues. Murong Qingtian took charge of family business again with Little Five as his assistant while Gu Yuxuan and Murong Xu took care of Niannian. It seemed that everything had been arranged well, so, Murong Ye and Gong Yu left A city at ease with large amounts of food, water, and medicine. They prepared these sufficient supplies not ony for that they might need to use them when they found Murong Yunxi but also for that they could distribute them to their staff in the branch comapny in C City as benefits. Also, they could donate the rest of supplies to the stricken area. The ea
Somebody cried out, "My God, another wave of aftershocks!" Then many people started evaluating the area, and Fourth Brother wasted no time in pulling Second Brother out of the hole forcibly and ran away with him by seizing his arm. He had lost Murong Yunxi, and he couldn't lose Second Brother again. Now he was actually extremely afraid. He feared that someone dear to him would be swallowed up by this horrible earthquake again. The sensation of the shocks disappeared quickly. But when everyone returned to the hole again after a minute, their hearts practically stopped beating! There was no opening there. The minor aftershocks just now had unexpectedly covered it up again. Like a crazy man, Gong Yu rushed to the spot of the covered hole and continued frantically digging up the place with his hands. It was a rather heart-rending scene for those standing by, and they went up to assist Gong Yu in digging the hole. It turned out to b
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
