Chapter 40 Chapter 40 Concerns

On the bay window sill of Jasmine's bedroom, the light blue bay window cushion is moderately soft and hard. She puts her legs on the cushion and leans on the pillow. Through the gap between the window screens, she can see the garden in the middle of the street across the road downstairs. Although there are green

The trees were blocking the view and the details there couldn't be seen clearly, but the tragic scenes in the garden square last night were still deeply imprinted in Gu Xiaoxing's mind.

After Jasmine woke up, Gu Xiaoxing told her everything about her life experience and her experiences in the past two or three months. She sat by the bed and listened, sometimes raising her eyebrows and widening her eyes, sometimes frowning and looking solemn.

He was so surprised that he was worried. After thinking about it for a long time, he finally regained his composure and cast an incredulous look at Gu Xiaoxing.

"Xiao Xing, you may encounter danger at any time now, but you still act so calm! Aren't you afraid?"

"... I'm probably used to this kind of life... It's useless to be afraid. Where else can I hide?"

Gu Xiaoxing picked up the water glass and took a sip of warm water. She didn't know when her heavy mood would be relieved. The bad things last night lingered in her mind, especially the last confrontation with Leng Yi, which made her feel unspeakable hurt.

The taste of pain...

Are the father and mother still there? Why didn't they come to her? Are they... still there?

"If I were you, why would I be working? It's not safe to stay at home. I would find a special place to hide, and then..."

Jasmine thought to herself, shook her head slowly and said.

"…and what happens next?"

Gu Xiaoxing turned to her gloomily.

"Then……"

Jasmine thought about it carefully, and it seemed that Gu Xiaoxing really had nowhere to hide. Even if she had dozens of bodyguards to trap her like in gangster movies, it would not stop Leng Yi from coming out of her divine energy to deal with her.

The Witch Clan will also try their best to find her, unless she never goes out to contact the outside world. But that doesn't mean she is under house arrest...

"You can escape the first grade of junior high school, but you can't escape the fifteenth grade. Jasmine, do you really think I'm a princess on the run? I'm at best a princess in distress... No... 'princess' is a joke to me..."

Gu Xiaoxing smiled bitterly. The huge gap between the past and the present made her resent the nominal identity of "princess". Is this identity still meaningful and valuable? Although she does not care about those things of fame and fortune at all, but with her own eyes

After witnessing the sharp contrast between her past and present, she inevitably became unbalanced.

In the past, Leng Xin could do many things without any scruples because she had enough confidence and strength... But now... what else does she have...

There really is no harm without comparison...

She doesn't want to quit her job, which will make her even more depressed. She now urgently needs to find her own value, the value of an ordinary Gu Xiaoxing...

"Xiaoyuki, why do you think that is a joke? You are originally a princess from another world. No matter in the past or now, no matter what you become, aren't you still the same?"

"But I..."

I am not as good as before...

She said in her heart.

How could Ming Shuo like her when she was dim? He probably liked her in the past... If he took off the filter of the past, would he see her differently?

Ha... He is now the king of another world, and she is just an ordinary Gu Xiaoxing who exists in the real world. The distance between them... is actually very far away, isn't it? Why should she now?

Do you have extravagant hopes for him?

The trajectory between them will be two lines that go farther and farther...

Now we are getting together just because we have to face those things together, right?

"Xiao Xing...why are you so unhappy!"

Jasmine saw that Gu Xiaoxing was depressed, stroking the jade bracelet in his hand in a daze. Her mood was so low that it almost froze the afternoon sun. She couldn't help but go over to look at her. Her eyes fell on her bracelet, and her eyes lit up.

"This bracelet is so beautiful. It suits you very well... The relationship between the Demon King and you must be unusual..."

Gu Xiaoxing felt mixed emotions in her heart and smiled coldly and bitterly.

"Be more open-minded, Xiaoxing..."

Jasmine comforted her, with a look of longing like a nymphomaniac:

"...If there was such a handsome man falling from the sky, saving me many times, and giving me such a beautiful... amulet... I would definitely accept him... accept him first and then talk..."

"You're handsome but you can't eat it as a meal..."

Gu Xiaoxing said without thinking.

Jasmine was full of energy and blurted out:

"Although Handsome can't be eaten as a meal, but... he can be eaten as a snack! Hehe!"

Gu Xiaoxing pursed his lips and said nothing, casting a mocking look of disdain.

Jasmine paused for a breath, her eyes turned, and a gossipy smile suddenly appeared on her lips:

"Xiaoyuki...are you really not with the Demon King yet?"

Gu Xiaoxing shook her head silently, feeling a big exclamation mark standing above her head!

Jasmine raised her eyebrows and said:

"Ah...no, you two are like that...not together yet...why?"

"...What are we like... We haven't even figured out our horoscope yet..."

Gu Xiaoxing's eyes flickered, and she couldn't help but think of Ming Shuo's various ways of hugging her, and her face burned to the base of her ears...

"Tsk, tsk, look how red you are. When I was in college, the student council president would block you at the door of the dormitory in various ways, but I didn't see you blushing."

"Then...it can't be compared...it's a shadow..."

Gu Xiaoxing recalled the embarrassing scene when the student council president of the school stalked and pursued him. The boy's self-confidence was like a black hole...

Jasmine smiled brightly on her face and said with a clever light in her eyes:

"Xiao Xing... I think the only thing left between you and the Demon King is to draw a 'stop'... You were beaten by your brother..."

Seeing Gu Xiaoxing's eyes darken, she paused, cleared her throat, and then continued:

"When you were... sealed away, I witnessed with my own eyes the process of the Demon King rescuing you. Although he kept casting spells there and basically didn't speak, I could feel how nervous I was about you even from a distance. Even though he was close to you, I could feel it from a distance.

Before you were rescued, for a moment, he seemed to be about to collapse. I don’t know what happened to you inside at that time... He seemed such a calm person..."

"...Oh, really..."

Gu Xiaoxing felt like a hot spring was flowing through his heart, and a ray of clear light rose up from his depressed mood.

Although she felt that even if Ming Shuo was interested in her, it was because of her cold aura, Jasmine's words still made her heart warm. She would rather believe for a short time that Ming Shuo was just doing this for ordinary her.

Worried, I removed the shiny filter.

"Hey, Jasmine, don't just talk about me, talk about you and that male radio anchor..."

Gu Xiaoxing looked at Jasmine's cheerful appearance, his emotions were affected by her, and he asked with concern and curiosity:

"What's going on with you guys now? Are you still 'buddies' who talk about everything?"

Unexpectedly, as soon as she finished speaking, Jasmine showed a hint of unhappiness on her face.

"Ahem...don't mention it, there's no chance."

"Why?"

Gu Xiao was fortunate to see her eyes bright, and he seemed to quickly sort out his thoughts in his mind before saying:

"Yesterday at noon, he came to me in the editing room and insisted on asking me to go to the corridor alone with him. He said he wanted to tell me a secret... I was so happy that I thought he wanted to confess to me... but it turned out..."

"...What's the result?"

Gu Xiaoxing listened carefully to her vivid description.

"...As a result, he told me that he had been lying to me all along. He said he had a girlfriend..."

"Oh...I'm just saying..."

"... He said that he had been dating his girlfriend for three years. They had a fight the day before yesterday and she ignored him all day. He told me that he was so sad and sad and wanted me to help him with advice and advice.

Go back to that girlfriend..."

"I'll go..."

Gu Xiaoxing picked up the water glass and wanted to use warm water to wash away the greetings that couldn't help but rush back to his stomach. You can imagine how aggrieved Jasmine was at that time.

"...That's how I felt...I was still holding on and told him that it was okay. Girls just need to coax him more..."

Jasmine said speechlessly:

"Then he said that his girlfriend had a bad temper and was difficult to coax, and he couldn't coax her back after coaxing her all night... He asked me if there was a better way, and wanted me to help him coax his girlfriend back... He also said that his

My girlfriend is very special, she wants to show me photos..."

Gu Xiaoxing picked up the water glass again...

"...I was really...before he showed it to me, he asked me to be mentally prepared...cowardly...for fear that I wouldn't be able to accept it..."

"I think it was because of how ugly he looked that I couldn't handle it. I comforted him and said, 'It's okay, I can accept it even if you find an alien wife'... Then he gave him his girlfriend's photo.

Let me see..."

Jasmine recalled the scene at that time, looking confused as to "who am I and where am I?":
