Butler Wang soon came in along with the rest of the servants. Thus, Gu Xi and Xing Beiyan had their dinner peacefully in a strange atmosphere. The servants and subordinates around them finally sighed in relief when they saw the two protagonists going upstairs. Gu Xi knew that what had happened today was a serious matter. Otherwise, Xing Beiyan would not have flown into a rage and decide to confine her within their house. Initially, she hoped to see him and explain the situation to him by coming home earlier. Unfortunately, he did not come back until much later. After taking a bath, Gu Xi lay on her bed and felt rather depressed as she thought about everything that had happened today. She would be getting her exam results tomorrow, but no one knew just how important her marks meant to her this time. After all, Gu Xi had been working very hard for a long time to achieve such results. Therefore, she wished she could be there in person to witness the incredulous and upset look on Gu

Gu Xi’s face turned bright red. It was out of habit that she usually called him ‘darling’, so she never thought much of it. However, it felt quite different when he was coaxing her to say it in this way. “Dar, dar…” She kept stuttering while her face grew even redder and her mind went blank. Then, she suddenly blurted, “As if I would believe you. You’re such a bad old man!” The sexual tension in the room vanished all at once… Xing Beiyan’s expression darkened right away. He rolled around and sat to the side of the bed while taking a deep breath. He seemed to be… Angrier? Gu Xi pulled her arms down awkwardly and cast him a wary glance. Why did she have to say that? “Darling, darling?” She reached out and poked at his hands.“Old man, huh?” Xing Beiyan instantly caught hold of her hand and asked gravely, “Xixi, is that how you see me?” “No, it’s not like that. It’s not. That was just an online expression that’s been quite popular recently. Everyone’s been using it. I accidentally

Despite Gu Xi’s disheveled state, her classmates were taken aback at the sight of her. Yesterday, she did not bring along her school uniform when she went home. Thus, Gu Xi had randomly grabbed a skirt and put it on before coming to campus. Although she was dressed quite ordinarily, some of her classmates were rather sharp-eyed and quickly identified the pieces she was wearing.Her simple-looking skirt with small floral prints was, in fact, worth one million RMB! That was a fashion piece created by the current most sought-after designer called I.K, and only three of this design could be found in the whole world. While it seemed quite plain and ordinary, many girls dreamed of having this skirt. That pair of sandals was also an I.K product. The entire outfit was rather expensive! Just what kind of backing did Gu Xi have? She had actually come to campus wearing an outfit that was worth a few million yuan! “Gu Xi? You… What’s going on here?” Teacher Li asked after a moment of surpr

Gu Xi laughed awkwardly. This was the result of not focusing on her studies as a child. In the past, she had spent most of her time in school sleeping and playing. Every year, the most she had written was probably her name. At that moment, her classmates shared neither their teacher’s pride nor Gu Xi’s joy. All of them were rooted to their seats in silence with looks of disbelief on their faces. Then, someone muttered “Holy sh*t!” and brought everyone out of their shock. Immediately after that, the entire class exploded into an uproar! “What’s going on? Gu Xi placed first out of our entire year group in the exams and even scored 140 marks out of the full marks of 150. It can’t be real, right? Shouldn’t it have been Gu Xue’er?”“Holy cow! Impossible. It hasn’t been that long since she resumed her classes. How could she possibly attain such high marks?!” “Didn’t she used to be bad at her studies? Could the teacher have said the wrong name…”The students erupted into a frenzy of

“Xixi, quickly apologize to everyone and beg Teacher for mercy. Daddy has spent so much money to send you here. If you get expelled, he’ll certainly be very angry!” Gu Xue’er hurriedly said. These words would undoubtedly draw more criticism to Gu Xi.“No wonder she has such poor behavior. It turns out that she bribed her way into this university.” “On top of that, she won’t even focus on her studies. She’s wasting not only her family’s money but also the painstaking efforts her family members have made for her. This Gu Xi really lacks a conscience!” “She’s a piece of garbage! We should get rid of this piece of garbage and chase her out of our class and our university!”“Did you hear that, Gu Xi? If you admit your fault now, you might not receive such a severe punishment. If you refuse to admit it, then don’t blame us for reporting this as a group!” Cheng Lin muttered smugly with a cold scoff. “Xixi, hurry up and admit it. Everyone will forgive you!” Gu Xue’er advised patiently.“Ar
