Chapter Sixteen: The Third Meeting

nough for her to understand immediately. It meant she shouldn't go to Hai Zhuang. If Gu Xicheng was there, Qin Yan might also be there. The fact that he only sent four words proved how urgent it was f..."How is it going" Looking at Xu Yixue's panicked face, Gu Xicheng frowned slightly.

A familiar voice, a familiar scent, a restless and uneasy heart seemed to find its anchor all at once. Raising her head to look at the man in the car, Xu Yixue opened her eyes wide for the first time. What met her gaze was a face that was as elegant as jade, with a noble and handsome countenance. He was wearing a tie, a black shirt and black trousers, paired with a maroon tie, exuding an indescribable sense of calmness and elegance. For a moment, she couldn't react, blinking repeatedly to make sure the person in front of her wasn't an illusion. Then, suddenly, she smiled sweetly, thinking to herself, "What a coincidence."

No one spoke, their eyes met.

Those fears were slowly dissipating. In a moment, Xu Yixue gently moved away from him, pretending not to know that he was Gu Xicheng, and shook her head, "I'm sorry, sir, I didn't mean to disturb you."

In a suit and tie, though without the tie, he exudes calmness with an added touch of laziness and seduction, even more captivating.

"Excuse me, sir, I'm getting off right now, I..." At this moment, it was already safe, time to get out and leave.

Gu Xicheng stared at her intently, and suddenly, without a word, he looked her up and down. He lowered his eyes and saw more clearly the unnatural paleness on her face. To have dared to stop the car like that just now, didn't she know she could have been killed

Xu Yixue looked at him without rushing to speak, instead seeming to be preparing herself a bit.

After a moment of silence, a calm male voice spoke, "Tell me, what happened just now"

Did someone just follow you

She has always been low-key at school and wouldn't offend anyone. Even in the realm of Yunxian Zhuang, she dared to follow her own trail. Was the other party unaware of what this place was or did they knowingly want to take a risk

Xu Yixue made a sad face, trying to elicit sympathy with a pitiful expression. "I've been stalked."

"Thank you, sir, for your help. You didn't kick me out of the car."

Gu Xi Cheng lowered his eyes to look at her for a long while, his dark eyes profound, as if he was truly pondering something.

Beast, thug!

Xǔ Yīxuě thought ill of him in her heart, but on the surface she smiled ingratiatingly.

"Sir" His voice was low.

What's she so mad about Her voice is so low and scary, isn't it

“I…”

Xue held her breath and finally uttered a word. Suddenly, she froze as her bag's phone rang. She silenced the call and turned it to silent before looking at Gu Xicheng.

"If my memory serves me right, I was the one who saved Mr. last time, but he didn't leave anything like a business card when he left."

Gu Xi Cheng stared at the delicate little face before him, as if blaming him for not leaving his name.

Xu Yixue didn't expect that they would meet again one day. She slightly raised her chin and softly said, "I'll go back to school later, I'm sorry sir, I'll get off here now."

Gu Xi Cheng's clear and cold eyes lowered slightly, as if gazing at her with a relaxed indifference. His face lacked the usual depth and restraint, "My surname is Gu, Gu Xi Cheng."

Xu Yi Xue paused the stroller door, turning her head back to look at him.

"Ji Chuan, send Miss Xu back to school." Gu Xi Cheng said to the person in front of him.

Sitting across from him, Segawa's expression was frozen in shock. He was still trying to process how his CEO had become so gentle when a voice broke the silence. It took him a moment to react before he responded loudly, "Yes."

"You know my name," Xu Yixue tilted her head and looked at him.

As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Xicheng was already looking at her and nodded.

Two people sat in the back. Gu Xicheng picked up the iPad that had been put aside earlier and started looking at it. Xu Yixue sat on one side, silent, staring out the window at the scenery.no longer as indifferent as before, with a hint of sharpness. Her gaze locked onto him, and as she looked, she couldn't help but smile. 。Upon arriving at the restaurant, Xu Yixue felt a bit awkward....
