Chapter 13: Has She Started Caring About Him?

  Ever since he met that girl, Xiao Xiaodong felt his work getting harder and harder, and his boss becoming more and more unreasonable. He cursed Gu Xi to disappear forever in his heart.

  That night, she really spent the night in prison. The cold wind pierced her bones, drilling into her from the top of her head. Her longing for a quilt was like a tidal wave. With a despondent face, she crouched in the corner, shrinking her body smaller and smaller. In the long night, she began to lose all hope, perhaps already accustomed to this feeling of disappointment.

  The sky was slightly bright, perhaps it was the first morning she could focus on waiting. Suddenly, she heard a guard calling her name, and she came out in disarray, seeing the man in front of her, seemingly moved. Looking at his tired face, he probably knew the situation and rushed back.

  I don't know what he said to the police, but anyway, they believed his status and easily solved the problem. The police even became polite to her. When leaving, she kept hearing "President Ling, slow down!" She used to hate people who relied on their status to get things done, but today she got a taste of it herself.

  "How can you wear so little? Hurry back home!" A pair of warm big hands hadn't even touched her yet, but she had already fallen into his arms. Her heart was satisfied, her height without high heels just reached his chest, and all the wind seemed to be blocked by him. The warmth made her forget that she didn't want to push him away. He hailed a taxi with one hand, the feeling of being hugged still very clear, "I just called Xiao Hui to prepare dinner, go back and soak in a hot bath, wearing so little, how can your body not be cold?"

  In the narrow space, he didn't care how the driver in front looked at him, and still tightly hugged her.

  In her heart, she was still grateful that this girl thought of him the moment something happened. Perhaps he was too tired, Gu Xi quietly lay down without a word.

  "Where is this?" A crisp voice broke the quiet atmosphere, and Gu Xi opened her eyes to find herself lying in a man's arms, feeling somewhat embarrassed. Ever since high school, when her friends had betrayed her for a boy and ruined her reputation in class, she would instinctively punch any guy who got close to her position.

  In her university days, she started to keep herself busy, even with a long line of boys pursuing her, it was all in vain. Being alone got her used to it and she began to fall in love with melancholy.

  "Don't move, let me hold you quietly!"

  "Get out of here!"

  Ling Hao Yu felt increasingly uncomfortable as he became more aggressive, possibly because his own safety zone was slowly shrinking. She pushed him away with one hand, but couldn't muster up the strength to do so, and the more she struggled, the tighter he held her, making a laughing stock of the driver, this little couple was really interesting.

  Since arriving in this city, nothing has made her feel at ease. After getting off the car, she shook off Ling Haoyu's hand and quickened her pace back to the quiet villa. Looking at the blooming flowers and grass, she felt comfortable in her heart. As soon as she entered, the nanny Zhang Xiaohui pulled her to take a hot bath, and with a wet head, she was pulled into Ling Haoyu's room by him who was standing at the door.

  Gu Xicai found that no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't beat the man. Looking at him frowning and picking up the hair dryer, making a loud humming noise. Was he helping her blow-dry her hair? His technique was unusually skilled, but somehow it sparked a disdainful remark in her mind, "I think you've blown dry too many girls' hair!"

  "Hey, you're quite skilled at this!" Gu Xi snatched the hair dryer from him. This miniature hair dryer was indeed a useful tool for his pursuit of little girls!

  "What are you saying? I'm so happy, it means you're starting to care about me?" Ling Hao Yu once again pried open her delicate small hands, his face close to her ear, smiling mischievously.

  "Cut!" She simply rolled her eyes, wearing a pair of large black slippers and went downstairs with a "pa pa" sound. The cell that had been locked up all night for no reason was now filled with the aroma of rich food, and her stomach growled louder and louder.

  Sugar vinegar ribs, fragrant mushroom slippery chicken, Mapo tofu, boiled fish and other dishes all smell delicious, she sat down and picked up her chopsticks without saying a word and started eating.

  No matter how hungry she is, she has a elegant way of eating. If she were to wear more comfortable clothes, it would be hard to see her wild and rebellious side.

  Zhang Xiaohui brought out dish after dish, and couldn't help but laugh when she saw Ling Haoyu standing behind Gu Xixi, watching her eat with his chin in his hands. "Brother, why don't you come over and eat together?"

  A spacious and luxurious villa, but with only three people it seemed empty. The problem was that every day she had to face the same faces, she began to wonder if this was a trap set by heaven for her.

  Gu Xi's ID was still nowhere to be found, so she temporarily stayed in Ling Haoyu's villa. No matter how late or busy he was, he would call her every day to tell her to sleep first. Once she had calmed down, the burden on his mind was temporarily lifted.

  Ling Hao Yu took advantage of the lunch break to relax, and opened his Weibo. "Really thanks to her for saving me and helping me bandage! Hope this wound heals quickly!" As soon as he opened it, he saw a post from Lin Xiao Rong at 7 pm last night, how did she get hurt? Seeing her sunbathing with blood-stained thighs, he gave her a call. "Stinky girl, have you gotten into trouble again?"

  "It's nothing... it doesn't matter."

  "Isn't it that girl bullying you again? Tell me and I'll help you deal with her?"

  "No... never mind, by the way, brother, I think I'll transfer to the Western District Hotel, is that okay?" She remembered those junior high school students from yesterday and fear was deeply implanted in her heart. When she first came in, she chose the Western District branch because she could meet many celebrities there, she was still a fan girl, but at that time there were no vacant positions.

  "What's with the stuttering? Alright, I'll get the manager on this side to arrange something for you."

  "Okay, thanks Brother Biao, my landline is ringing, I won't talk to you for now." After her cell phone rang, the landline at home also rang. She simply hung up the phone and limped to the landline on the desk.

  "Rong Rong, you're hurt, aren't you?" Lin Mu and Ling Mu were sisters, and the village's famous sister flowers. After going to university, they both transformed into golden phoenixes. Ling Mu was the older sister, Cheng Fan, while Lin Mu was Cheng Xin. They had completely different personalities, but shared two delicate oval faces, still radiant with charm to this day.

  Cheng Xin and her university classmate Lin Tao were a couple in school, after getting married, they started doing small seafood business together. Now they have more than a dozen chain stores in D city, their business is booming, and they are somewhat famous locally. Her sister, on the other hand, led an ordinary life, came to F city to become a kindergarten teacher, and later married Ling Feng, the principal of the neighboring middle school.
