"That's what I had in mind, Mom, I'm going to submit my resume right away." Mu Yuxue jumped up nervously and excitedly.
"My daughter is so good, she will definitely apply for the job. After you pass the interview, mother will give you a big gift." Wang Sisi said with a doting look on her face.
"What are you going to give me? I don't want any clothes or bags." Mu Yuxue was not interested.
"Give you a favorite car, the one you want most."
"But it costs more than five million, are you willing to do it?" Mu Yuxue's eyes lit up and she suddenly became happy.
"Why are you reluctant? If you don't reveal your family background, how can you be worthy of being the boss of Yuntian Group?" Wang Sisi said with a proud look on her face.
Mu Yuxue's face turned red with embarrassment, and she said coquettishly: "Mom, what are you talking about? I haven't even written my horoscope yet."
"Okay, okay, if mom doesn't say anything, my daughter will still be shy." Wang Sisi suddenly laughed happily.
Mu Yuxue immediately covered her face in shame and fled back to her room.
A certain overseas sea area.
The private island has charming scenery and a subtropical environment that gives people a different feeling.
Ling Yan has been here for several days. From the initial panic to now, her mood has calmed down. She reads the news about her parents on the Internet, feeling very uncomfortable and helpless.
It's night!
Ling Yan lay with her head up on the bed, the air conditioner blowing cold air. She didn't know what to do next, where to go.
"Bump..." A thunderous explosion suddenly came from the distance.
Ling Yan jumped up from the bed in fright, her scalp numb.
"Someone broke into the island." A shout came from outside the door.
Ling Yan's face turned pale, she opened the door and ran out.
What does Gu Xichen do, and why do people always want his life?
Ling Yan's mind began to think wildly. Is Gu Xichen engaged in a shady business? Smuggling? Drug trafficking? Illegal arms dealer?
The more Ling Yan thought about it, the more scared she became. She felt that this man was a mystery and a dangerous person. Should she run away from him?
"Get down..." Ling Yan was thinking in confusion, when suddenly someone rushed over and pushed her down into the grass.
After rolling twice, she lay on the other person's chest, gasping in fright. "Don't move around." The man warned in a low voice in her ear.
It was Gu Xichen. Lingyan raised her eyes in panic and met a pair of dark and gloomy eyes. Her heart trembled. These eyes reminded her of the most ferocious beasts. Even in the darkest night, they would still shine brightly.
"I'm afraid..." Her voice was trembling.
The man picked her up and quickly walked through the grass and entered a room.
"Stay here." The man threw her down and jumped out of another window.
Ling Yan didn't dare to move anymore and hid in the cabinet.
Gunshots, screams, and explosions were heard continuously from a distance, showing that the fighting was fierce.
Ling Yan covered her ears, her petite body trembling.
I don’t know how long has passed, it seems like a century.
The cabinet door was opened and Ling Yan screamed.
"Come out." A familiar deep male voice sounded.
Ling Yan looked up and saw Gu Xichen. She threw herself into his arms in horror: "Is the enemy dead? Are you injured?"
Gu Xichen caught her smoothly, her soft body pressed tightly against his chest.
"I'm fine, come with me." Gu Xichen's voice was low, he grabbed her wrist and ran out the door.
Lingyan's heart dropped when she heard him say it was okay, and she trotted to keep up with his pace.
This was a speedboat. Ling Yan sat next to Gu Xichen and asked nervously: "Where are we going?"
"Let's wait until you leave here." Gu Xichen looked sideways at her. Her short hair was messy, sweat was stuck on her fair face, and her star-like eyes were full of panic.
"Are you afraid?" Gu Xichen said calmly.
"Well, I'm afraid." Ling Yan couldn't hide the fear on her face. She had never dared to step on an ant since she was a child. The things she encountered now would really become her lifelong nightmare.
Gu Xichen hugged her over and held her close to his chest: "Close your eyes and get some sleep."
Ling Yan was stunned and blinked her beautiful eyes: "I can't sleep if you hold me like this."
Gu Xichen let go of his hand, but Ling Yan did not leave his chest. She still leaned against him. Listening to his strong heartbeat, she felt more secure.
With the sea breeze whistling in her ears, Ling Yan didn't know when she fell asleep.
When she woke up, she found herself sitting in a car with Gu Xichen next to her, handling things with an iPad.
"Are you awake?" came the man's deep voice.
"Where is this?" Ling Yan sat up quickly and looked out the window with her beautiful eyes. The steel forest was lined with trees, showing the prosperity of the city. It was already night, and the brightly lit metropolis was dazzling and charming.
"Take you back to my house." The man's voice was calm.
"This is not City A." Ling Yan discovered that there was no familiar scenery in this bustling city.
"It's City B." Gu Xichen glanced outside.
Ling Yan's heart suddenly calmed down.
Gu Xichen handed her a bottle of milk and two pieces of bread: "Eat some."
"Thank you, I happen to be hungry." Ling Yan ignored her ladylike appearance, took it, opened the bread and started to nibble on it.
She didn't do these things before. Her three meals a day were carefully prepared by her maids. Even when she ate out, she always chose high-end restaurants.
Thinking of what happened in the past, Ling Yan's eyes felt sore. In just a few days, she seemed to have survived as long as a century.
The black SUV passed through the bustling streets and headed towards the famous villa area in City B.
Halfway up the mountain, there is a large single-family villa, the lanterns are on, and the garden is paved with simple street lamps. Under the shadow of the lamps, there are exquisite flowers and plants with ribbons, showing a noble temperament.
"Come down." Gu Xichen opened the door and walked out.
Ling Yan also got out of the car and looked at this strange and beautiful garden. She didn't know where to go for a moment.
Gu Xichen told the two maids and aunts who came over: "Take her to the room to change into a set of clothes."
"Yes, Master."
Ling Yan looked at the servant's respect for Gu Xichen and knew very well how valuable his status was. If it was before, she would not care about these details, but now Ling Yan is no longer a rich lady. She knows very well that she has fallen from the altar and become a
of mortals.
In the guest room on the second floor, Ling Yan received a set of women's clothing sent by the servant and changed into it.
After putting it on, Ling Yan opened the door and looked at the deep corridor. She took a deep breath and walked a few steps forward.
"She must be the young lady from the Ling family. She is quite beautiful. It's a pity that she is no longer worthy of our eldest young master."
"That is, her parents have committed crimes and been imprisoned. She is no longer a young lady. The young master is different. He is the treasure of the old lady's heart."
"I'm afraid that Miss Ling will pester the young master and won't let go."
"The young master brought her back. Could she have played some trick?"
"Perhaps he is pretending to be pitiful to win the young master's sympathy."
"The old lady said yesterday that if we give up on this marriage, she will definitely be out of luck."
"I hope she will be self-aware and not embarrass herself when the time comes."
The chat between the two servants and aunties reached Ling Yan's ears.
