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
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
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
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
"Duanmu Gongyu, I'm back. I've determined that I want to be with you. But I want to tell you in advance; if one day you stop having feelings for me, you can tell me. I will leave. But you can never like others while you like me. All I ask is your undivided love. I would hate you for a lifetime and never forgive you if you betrayed me!" The woman was shy, but she said these words firmly to the man. Her eyes sparkled. Gazing at the woman's beautiful face, the man could not help feeling touched. He said, "I get it! But I also want to tell you that I will love you with all my heart and soul. I will not give you any reason to leave me. I only beg you not to leave me again! I really can't bear the pain of losing you!"His face overflowed with tenderness, and his eyes were full of love. He held the woman tightly and lowered his head to kiss her. The man kissed passionately, and the woman was wrapped in tenderness. They were utterly lost in the passionate kiss...Suddenly
Yun Muxi almost spat out a mouthful of tea. Although she did not spit it out, she choked herself, which made her coughed with her hand covering her mouth.Zhao Yi immediately handed her a tissue. Yun Muxi took it and nodded politely.She finally held her breath and stopped coughing. She explained, "What a coincidence that I look like your ex-girlfriend! Meanwhile, it's my honor to meet you in person."Yun Muxi changed the topic. She said calmly, leaving no flaw. Gong Yu raised his eyebrow gently, with faint coldness in his eyes.Zhao Yi did not notice the awkward atmosphere. He smiled politely to Yun Muxi and said, "Xiao Xi, your story is really incredible. I think Gong Yu fits the role of Mu Lengyu perfectly. Gong Yu's appearance and manner are in conformity with Mu Lengyu. It's seemingly tailor-made to him.I've also kept an eye on him for a long time. He is not the most popular one, but he has a good reputation. His first drama was really amazing, an
Yun Muxi was panic-stricken, but she remained composed. She said in a deep voice, "Mr. Gong, I don't know what you're talking about! I think you've mistaken me for someone else. I meet you for the first time, so nothing has ever happened between us. Is this your way to strike up a conversation with a woman? If so, it's rather old-fashioned." Gong Yu's face hardened momentarily. A sharp glint flashed through his eyes. He said with an evil smile, "Really? Old-fashioned? Then, I'll show you something new." As he finished speaking, Gong Yu pushed Yun Muxi against the elevator wall and bowed his head to kiss her delicate lips. Yun Muxi leaned her back against the cold wall, shivering in despair. "Can't I escape him?" Gong Yu began to kiss Yun Muxi with increasing pressure as if he was maliciously punishing the woman in his arms. Yun Muxi struggled fiercely, but she could not get out of the hug. She became more and more frightened.
Upon hearing Gong Yu's words, Yun Muxi's face turned scarlet, and her heart was beating so fast. She bitterly hated the man in front of her and wanted to tear him into pieces.Seeing this, Gong Yu was satisfied with his performance and kept going crazy."Miss Yun, you're wrong. Am I disgusting? Disgusting? Have you considered how disgusting I felt these years? You're not qualified to say that I'm disgusting."Gong Yu cursed in a loud roar, which resounded through the roof. Yun Muxi's eardrum was extremely painful due to the vibration. There was a lingering hum in her ear. Like the dark clouds in her heart, blocking out the sun, the hum blocked out all the sounds. She looked at Gong Yu's mouth opening and closing, but she could not hear anything he said.Yun Muxi threw off Gong Yu's big hand with great strength and ran to the restroom.Seeing Yun Muxi left angrily, Gong Yu sat on the floor feebly and leaned against the
Seventh Brother rarely swore except when he was mad at Gong Yu. He thought Gong Yu was pitiful most of the time, so he could not bear to scold him.Seventh Brother was Gong Yu's agent. His name was Su Rui, but people called him Seventh Brother. Four years ago, he met Gong Yu by accident in the street. Gong Yu wore weird clothes and combed long hair into a ponytail on the top of his head. He exuded a cool and majestic manner, like a prince who came through time and space.At that time, Seventh Brother happened to need an actor for a historical drama. He thought Gong Yu would fit in the role of the male lead. However, he found the man was very stiff. When he took him back and asked, the man told him nothing except that his name was Gong Yu and he wanted to find a woman called Xiao Xi. Seventh Brother firmly believed that Gong Yu had lost his memory.Then, he asked him if he wanted to act. Gong Yu just wondered if he could find Xiao Xi by performi

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
