âUnderstood.â
The call ended.
The woman set down her phone, her attention now fully on the television program.
It was a rerun of âYouth With You,â showing Si Fuqing playing the bass.
Upon seeing Si Fuqingâs face, the woman paused momentarily, but quickly regained her composure.
The butler rushed in, whispering, âLady, the young master called home, specifically asking when you would be free. Heâs participating in a program where family members make a video appearance to support the contestants. Heâs wondering if you could record a message.â
âTell him to get lost,â the woman scoffed coldly. âHe wanted to make his own way in the entertainment world, so let him. Anyone who dares help him will soon understand why todayâs flowers are so red! ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
She slammed her hand on the table.
âCrack! â
The table split in half.
Seconds later, it crumbled into dust with a series of cracking sounds.
The butler clamped his mouth shut, cold sweat breaking out on his forehead.
Gazing at the wood shavings on the floor, his mind nearly ceased to function.
He didnât dare utter a word about the young master having stolen the cherished design drafts of the lady of the house.
He feared she might literally color todayâs flowers with his blood.
âAlso, Lady, thereâs another matter. Mr. Gu Wenzhu has arrived in Great Xia,â the butler reported, wiping his forehead. âShould we contact him and arrange a meeting?â
âMr. Gu?â Lady Xie was genuinely surprised. âWhy would he suddenly come to Great Xia?â
The butler lowered his voice, âWe donât know yet, but whatever can bring him personally must be significant.â
Lady Xie replied coldly, âWhat an obvious statement.â The butler was left speechless by the rebuke. âLeave,â she waved him off. âDonât interrupt me watching TV.â The butler stole a glance at the television, puzzled.
Wasnât that the program the young master was participating in?
Though the lady was quite aggressive, her true feelings seemed contrary to her words.
Sighing, the butler decided to consult the master about the family appearance matter. However, the master always followed the ladyâs wishes.
He sighed again, worried for the young masterâs safety.
At nine in the evening, Si Fuqing arrived at Yu Xihengâs villa in MO City.
She placed her bag down and asked, âIs there a computer?â
âYes,â Feng San replied, puzzled. âBut it might not be as fast as your laptop.â
âI need to play a game that my laptop canât handle,â Si Fuqing explained. âI need a gaming laptop.â
Feng San nodded, understanding, âWe have one upstairs.â
Si Fuqing went upstairs, chose a room, sat down at the computer, and connected with Yu Tang, âTangtang, Iâm online.â
âIâm waiting for you in the main city,â Yu Tang sounded tired. âQingqing, you wouldnât believe the nonsense on the forums. My inbox is flooded with messages asking if Iâm NINE the Godâs girlfriend.â
âIf that were true, would I be this bad at gaming? And what if NINE the God is some old guy? I donât like older men.â
Si Fuqing paused for a moment, then smirked, âIâve found you.â
âOh?â Yu Tang snapped back to reality. âWhere? Where?â
Si Fuqing replied leisurely, âRight in front of you. Donât you want to play a swordsman? My main character is a swordsman too, so itâs convenient to teach you.â
âIn front of me?â
The swordsman wearing a silver mask turned around.
Yu Tangâs gaze moved upward, noticing the golden nickname above the swordsmanâs head..
