The employee knew for sure Gu Xi had the right to fire him so he was not afraid in the slightest because if he rallied everybody else to quit, what could she do to stop him?“Since you already know that, why aren’t you leaving yet?” However, nobody expected Gu Xi to calmly ask them such a question before she left with Qiao Zhen, not even sparing a glance at the employee.“Just you wait!” The man spat before he led his people out of the hotel.Gu Tianxiang and his family were left behind with only a few words in their minds. ‘We’re done for…’Gu Xi settled the Gu Family Group’s major reforms in a few days; she replaced all the employees with her own people and since she did not know much about running a company, Qiao Zhen provided her with the most assistance. Gu Tianxiang was naturally dismissed from his position but since he was no idiot, he exchanged 30% of his shares for the entertainment company under the banner of the Gu Family Group.Although there was a lot of commotion c
“Yes… He came looking for me and asked me for my help, I couldn’t say no to him…” Li Limi admitted shamefully.Although she knew Han Lei was not a good man, her feelings for him made it hard for her to reject him.“You’re really…” Gu Xi shook her head before saying, “acting just like I once did.”She had originally wanted to say something else but she remembered how she was before; was she not willing to do anything for Han Lei before as well?“Don’t worry, I’ve only agreed to act in this drama. I won’t be participating in anything else besides this, so I won’t be interacting with them anymore.” Li Limi promised once she noticed Gu Xi’s weary expression.“You couldn’t reject him this time. What makes you think you can reject him next time?” Gu Xi asked in bewilderment.Li Limi bit her lip in embarrassment.What Gu Xi said was true; she could not reject him this time so would she be able to reject him next time, or the following times?Gu Xi studied her perplexed expression; she
“Baby, you don’t have class tomorrow so aren’t you coming home?” Gu Xi’s phone went off with a notification; it was a message from her beloved darling.Gu Xi looked at it, flabbergasted. “How did you know?”“Hmm… Your chancellor told me.” Xing Beiyan would never admit to the fact that he had somebody spying on her.However. even if she found out, she would not mind either way. After all, Gu Xi indulged Xing Beiyan in anything he did. It did not matter if he had somebody tail her or monitor her, she would not care at all.Besides that, she might even find it weird if her husband called off all surveillance one day.“Then… Are we going out for a meal now?” Li Limi suggested once she noticed Gu Xi replying messages.Ever since she stopped hanging out with Gu Xue’er, she had never bothered to find new friends as well.Li Limi could not pinpoint the specific emotion she felt towards Gu Xi; there was guilt and a little gratefulness, but also a lack of disdain and maybe a little envy t
“Heh… Then I look forward to that day very much.” Gu Xi had just offered a meal out of courtesy and most people would reject such an offer out of politeness, so she had certainly never expected Lin Xinhan to accept.His acceptance had shocked Gu Xi once more.As he observed her slightly embarrassed expression, Lin Xinhan’s beaming expression became even more prominent.“That works too. I’ll write down your name and then I’ll get in touch with you when the time comes.” Since she had offered, Gu Xi naturally would not go back on her word. Besides, it was just one meal.“Hmm? My name’s Han and here’s how you can contact me…” He told her his phone number, his voice pleasant to ears.Gu Xi saved it to her phone, feeling slightly astonished at the fact that there was another person in the world who had a voice almost as pleasant as her husband’s.She shook her head to dismiss the thought before she waved goodbye to the pair, the skateboard in her grip as she left.This was still someo
Nobody expected Gu Xi to ask in a pitiful tone, “Why aren’t you answering me, you don’t want to come to my house? You’re not going to give your sister-in-law the time of day?”Ruan Meng’er quickly nodded her head with a happy expression once she noticed Xing Beiyan’s furrowed eyebrows. “How could that be, I’m just worried about bothering you both.”“You won’t be, don’t worry.” Gu Xi promised confidently.As soon as they arrived at the Xing residence, Gu Xi set her backpack down and immediately headed into the kitchen just as she had said.Scrumptious dishes soon filled the dinner table.Gu Xi even enthusiastically prepared a bowl of soup for Ruan Meng’er, which she passed to the latter with a smile.After Ruan Meng’er took the first sip, her expression shifted into something inexplicable.“Why, is it bad?” Unfortunately, Gu Xi just had to pick this moment to ask her a question with an expectant look on her face.“It’s, it’s great…” Ruan Meng’er forced a smile onto her face as s
Gu Xi clicked her tongue before she changed and left the house.A day where her husband did not look after her was a sweet day indeed~However, she had never expected that Ruan Meng’er returning to the old Xing residence with a pale face would cause Old Madam Xing to overthink.After listening to Ruan Meng’er telling an exaggerated version of the way Gu Xi had bullied her, Old Madam Xing flew into a rage!“Gu Xi is going overboard!” She stood up, slamming her palm onto the table.“Don’t get angry, Grandma. It’s nothing, sister-in-law probably dislikes me, which is why…” Ruan Meng’er said weakly as she stood to the side.“Hmph! I only have myself to blame for not being firm in stopping Beiyan from bringing her home! I thought that everything would be fine if she was sensible but now that I look back on things, I was a foolish old woman!”Old Madam Xing’s face was ashen as she made a phone call.“Old Zhong, let that woman come home!”“Grandma? Who is this woman?” Ruan Meng’er as
Li Limi inhaled deeply.‘Take a deep breath… Calm down, calm down. Behind this girl that’s younger than you is a man that stands at the peak of the business world!’Therefore, it was no surprise that Gu Xi had become Little Miss Wealthy.That...was perfectly normal…Li Limi swallowed her saliva before she glanced at Gu Xi.Gu Xi looked back at her with a gaze that said, ‘There’s no need to be courteous with me.’She was being so generous, unlike Li Limi, who was unwilling to wear the sole lolita dress she owned, choosing to hide it away in her wardrobe. Gu Xi had immediately offered so many dresses to her, which moved her beyond belief~If she were to reject Gu Xi, that would certainly cause Gu Xi to lose face.“I’ll wear this one.” Li Limi picked up a long dress with a darker palette.Gu Xi’s gaze scanned the dress from top to bottom; just as she expected, it was the most conservative one there. It even went all the way to her ankles.Very well, Gu Xi would do no good in for
Gu Xi rolled her eyes in exasperation.She was introducing a friend to them, not a future girlfriend!“You better be well-behaved later, don’t salivate once you see a pretty lady!” Gu Xi sent another voice message that was followed by a sticker with a disdainful expression.“My goddess, I have very high standards, I’ll only salivate at you!” Luo Yang expressed his loyalty.“Tsk…” Gu Xi sent yet another disdainful sticker to the group chat.A few more minutes later, a few boys with their arms around each other’s shoulders could finally be seen walking towards them.Wow, they even did their hair.“Is that them?” Li Limi asked softly. She obviously had seen the boys before; who carried themselves differently from everybody else despite wearing masks.“That’s right!” Gu Xi nodded her head and was just about to continue speaking when she saw Luo Yang, who was at the front of the group, rushing over after his beautiful fox-like eyes spotted her. “My goddess, my goddess! I’m here.”G
