Gu Yuxuan hung up hurriedly. "Dear classmates, I'm truly sorry. I have some urgent matter to attend to, so I'll take my leave first. Hope to meet you all again someday." Gu Yuxuan was just about to turn and leave when a big hand tugged at her elbow. She frowned and turned to see who it was with her face plastered with anxiety and confusion. "Did you just say over the phone that Yun Muxi is missing? What's going on?" Yao Zhenhao's hand was tugging at her arm as he looked at her with a desire for answers. Gu Yuxuan glanced at him and was just about to explain when she realized that he was not the only one looking at her with pleading eyes. The gaze of several other males was also fixated on her. Gu Yuxuan could not help but sigh to herself. "This Xiao Xi is so attractive! The guys all look like they're gonna pounce on me just to find out the answer." Gu Yuxuan pushed Yao Zhenhao's hand away and coughed softly. "Um,

Murong Ye frowned slightly and turned towards the door. Gong Yu entered the monitoring room full of cold aura. He was followed by Seventh Brother who was carrying their luggage. Seeing that the newcomer was Gong Yu, Murong Ye lifted his hand and signaled to him. "I don't care how you do it, I just want to see results. I'm giving you your last 30 minutes. If you still can't bring Xiao Xi to me, prepare to step down!" After throwing those words at the Principal, Murong Ye ended the call without giving him a chance to speak for himself. From Murong Ye's perspective, all words were meaningless without results. He did not need to waste time listening to them. He only needed to know the results. He had always treated his subordinates like this. Murong Ye put away the phone, looked up at Gong Yu and said faintly, "You're here." Murong Ye's gaze moved towards Seventh Brother, who was standing behind Gong Yu. Seventh Brother seemed to h

Murong Ye picked up the phone as he walked towards the door. "Hello? I gave the order. Don't question my order. I don't want to talk too much about this! If there are any consequences, I'll bear the responsibility." Murong Ye was already out of the door when he hung up. Gong Yu frowned and looked towards Murong Ye's direction. His instinct told him that Murong Ye was in trouble, and this trouble had something to do with Xiao Xi going missing. Gong Yu planned to find some time to talk to Murong Ye and see if he could help him out. Thinking of this, Gong Yu felt some bitterness in his heart. He felt that his current self was as useless as if he had cut off his limbs. This was the first time in over 20 years that he had felt so helpless. All of his pride and ego vanished at this moment. Gong Yu pulled Yun Muxi towards him and held her tightly in his embrace, as if this was the only way he could give strength to himself, to let him stand up tall

Murong Ye's face became even colder and darker, looking at Master Bao with chilling eyes. Master Bao was shocked with slight fear. He became more and more guilty while he still didn't know where he had offended Master Murong—he was almost a god that nobody dared to offend. "Master Bao's fellows are not cowards, are they?" Murong Ye asked. His voice was not loud but possessed a sense of coldness and gloom, which could make people chill. His voice was freezing cold to the bone and his eyes were even colder, making people afraid to look straight at his eyes. After hearing that, Master Bao frowned slightly, he couldn't help but turn eyes to his subordinates. The few people around him didn't dare to breathe at all, just standing by with their heads down, like statues. "I don't know how my people got in trouble with Master Murong. Master Murong, please speak straight and give me some hints." Master Bao's words were too polite, which,

Yun Muxi gasped, all she could feel was Gong Yu. Such an attractive and ambiguous atmosphere made her flustered in no time. She did not dare to move. If not paying enough attention, they would touch each other's lips. She was even a little bit nervous. Although it was not the first time for her to kiss Gong Yu, at the moment, she felt that, as if this was her first kiss. Her heartbeat raced and her cheek flushed red, like a teenage girl. With corners of his lips upward slightly, Gong Yu pecked at Yun Muxi's lips and then raised his head. He stood back up and went to the bathroom to put away the hair dryer. Yun Muxi got up and picked up the cup on the tea table. After having gulped down half a cup of water, she barely pulled herself together and recovered from fluster. Gong Yu walked out of the bathroom and said flatly, "Go to bed early. I will go to Lingyin Temple with you early tomorrow morning." "Lingyin Temple?" Yun Muxi stu
