Gu Xi could not take it anymore when she witnessed the scene. She was in no place to question who that lady was, and could not blame him for treating her as another lady’s replacement, hence she could only leave. She would go far away, and perhaps her heart would not ache so much anymore if she could not see them. Gu Xi dared not stay there any longer as she was afraid of seeing something else that would cause her to break down. “Xixi!” Xing Beiyan saw Gu Xi running away in a flash, and a flustered look was seen on his cold face. It was something that Hua Feifei had never seen before because back when they were still together, he was extremely indifferent toward her, and would only treat her gently once in a while. This time, Hua Feifei actually saw an emotion other than indifference on the man’s face. ‘Isn’t that lady just my replacement?’ She wondered. Her face also darkened because she figured that something must have happened while she was gone. “Yan!” She clung to Xi
Gu Xi and Ye Xinhan stood in the same spot for a long time. One was expressionless while the other looked helpless. In actual fact, Ye Xinhan could simply leave without bothering about Gu Xi anymore, but he was afraid that she would take things too hard again and run out to the road. Ye Xinhan had just saved Gu Xi earlier, and she had not repaid him for saving her, so would he not suffer a loss if she died? As a businessman, Ye Xinhan never did business without benefit. He smirked as an evil idea crossed his mind. However, Gu Xi did not notice it as she lowered her head. * At the shooting venue in the university. The teen campus drama’s first supporting role had just shown up, who used to be well-known by the nation as the best actress. Since she came with the Golden Age Group’s CEO, many people crowded around them, and the cheers for them were louder than the ones for the two leads. Gu Xue’er, who was pleased because she had cast Gu Xi away, finally woke up from the joy
All in all, it would be disadvantageous toward Hua Feifei’s future. That said, she dared not disobey Xing Beiyan. Hence, Hua Feifei and Gu Xue’er acted the scene again. This time, a real slap was given. Perhaps because Xing Beiyan was watching both actresses, they performed stiffly. He questioned unhappily after the slap was done, “Did you not eat?” Everyone else was speechless. ‘Judging from the slap, it was quite painful for someone with tender skin on the face.’ ‘How could he say that the slap wasn’t hard enough? Please, it can’t be measured with a man’s strength, okay?’ Following that, the scene was interrupted by Xing Beiyan five times consecutively. Gu Xue’er’s face was swollen, Hua Feifei’s palm reddened, and the other people were afraid. Even though there were many stoppages, nobody dared to say a thing such that even Director Li, an extremely reputable director, lowered his head without saying a word as though he did not see anything. Therefore, how could
Everyone shivered out of fear. “Continue the shoot, and send me a copy of the video once it’s done!” After giving his order, Xing Beiyan left the venue without looking back. The crowd sighed. ‘He’s really cruel!’ On the other hand, Luo Yang and the others had returned after finishing their shoot. Since they were focusing on the shoot that took place a distance away, they did not notice that Gu Xi had left. Seeing as the female assistant was standing in a daze, Luo Yang walked over and asked strangely, “Eh? Where’s Xixi?” The female assistant was still in awe from seeing the Golden Age Group’s CEO, and she finally regained her senses when someone asked her a question, so she explained everything that happened. In actual fact, the assistant had no idea what Gu Xue’er told Chief Gu, she only knew the latter slapped the former out of extreme anger. Afterward, she was distracted because someone announced that Golden Age’s CEO and the best actress had arrived, and when she tu
Hua Feifei, whose train of thought was interrupted, looked up confusedly at the teens standing in front of her. While feeling surprised, her face reddened as she quickly realized that she was called a mistress. She was afraid that others would hear him but was also ashamed. “Who are you? Why are you spouting nonsense?” “Nonsense?” Luo Yang laughed out of anger and chastised while putting his hands on his waist, “You came with someone else’s husband and drove the legal wife away, am I accusing you wrongly?” The other people heard him since he spoke quite loudly. They were instantly startled. ‘The best actress is a mistress? ‘Whose mistress?’ They quickly recalled the scene when Hua Feifei and Xing Beiyan arrived an hour ago. A lady had suddenly run away, and Chief Xing called out to her with the intention to pursue her, but was held back by Hua Feifei, who was pushed away in the end. Following that, Hua Feifei was aimed at by Xing Beiyan… No wonder. The crowd came to a s
Seeing as she was brought to a remote area, Gu Xi suddenly halted and looked warily at Ye Xinhan, who was walking lazily in front of her. “Where are you bringing me to?” The person in front of her stopped too, and turned to look at her with a plain smile. “You weren’t afraid when you were courting death earlier, are you afraid now?” Gu Xi looked at him coldly without saying a word. She did not fear death, but was only afraid that he had ill motives. After all, she experienced something similar in the past, and although the person in front of her did not look like he had bad intentions, nothing was certain. ‘Who knows if he has a human’s face, but a beast’s heart? ‘Even if I die, I must protect my innocence.’ Ye Xinhan chuckled upon seeing her face. “Don’t worry, I’m just bringing you to a place where your husband won’t be able to find you. Though I have no idea what happened between you, I’m sure that you don’t want to see him now. If that’s the case, why not find a quiet
Gu Xi twitched her mouth speechlessly. ‘Can I say that I’m regretting this now?’ “Why isn’t anyone here?” She found it strange after walking around for a long time because she did not see anybody else. “Perhaps it’s mealtime,” Ye Xinhan answered, then led Gu Xi through a door. Once the door was opened, noises were heard, and mighty, sturdy men were seen at a glance. There were small eateries and stores that sold daily necessities around, which was very similar to a normal street on the ground level. Nonetheless, it looked very strange. That was because there were no women around. The place could be considered a monk base. Gu Xi’s appearance had upset the balance. When the men saw her, it was evident that they were staring at her as if she was a fairy, or were casting wolfish looks at her, which was hair-raising. Gu Xi quickly hid behind Ye Xinhan. She understood almost instantly why they looked at her that way. On the other hand, Ye Xinhan continued to walk as t
It was obvious that this was a great place. “Are you really going to fight your way through the levels?” Ye Xinhan’s face changed. “Since I’m already here, why not give it a go?” Gu Xi looked up at him. Ye Xinhan looked at her disdainfully. “Although the lowest level only has newbies, it’s easy for them to go against a young lady like you. Are you really going to try?” In his opinion, a normal lady would be so afraid upon seeing such a scene that one would desperately want to leave. Ye Xinhan had only scared Gu Xi on purpose, he was actually not exaggerating that much. After all, there were quite a number of levels above, hence his aim was to scare her so that she would not dare to leave. However, the outcome was not what he had expected. ‘Well, she isn’t afraid of death, so what is this to her? ‘I’ll just ask someone to keep an eye on her, it’ll be fine as long as she doesn’t die.’ “Okay, I’ll be leaving now. I come here every Tuesday, so if you’d like to leave, you
