The atmosphere suddenly fell silent, plunging into a deathly stillness. Si Fuqing slowly lifted her head, gazing at assistant sprite with a calmness in her eyes.
The assistant sprite shivered under her gaze, recalling the shock he received when he contacted this god over the phone, and his legs turned to jelly, âNINE, NINE the God?â
âTell me,â Si Fuqing paused, smiling slightly, âWho is Jiu the God?â
âAh?â the assistant sprite hesitated, then looked towards Yu Xiheng, stuttering, âNINE the God, isnât it you who had an appointment with Jiu the God here tonight?â
Si Fuqing took a slow breath.
Yes, she had made an appointment with Jiu the God alone.
Thus, the one who appeared here could only be Jiu the God.
It was just that she had had a dream just now. Although she had awakened from it, she hadnât fully detached herself from the dreamâs haze, her thoughts unclear, not considering this aspect.
Jiu the God.
Yu Xiheng, the ninth son of the Yu family, ranked ninth.
Si Fuqingâs fists tightened gradually.
The assistant sprite, caught between Yu Xiheng and Si Fuqing, acutely sensed the tension between the two.
He set down the cocktails and asked carefully, âDo the two gods have any other instructions?â
Finally, Yu Xiheng spoke, his voice neither high nor low, but his words carried weight, âLeave.â
The assistant sprite scurried away, feeling aggrieved yet tender, and thoughtfully closed the door behind him.
He was certain the room setup would satisfy both gods immensely.
He was already imagining a salary increase.
Little did assistant sprite know, just beyond the door, the atmosphere was entirely different from what he imagined.
It was quiet, but.
The silence was broken by Si Fuqing, staring at Yu Xiheng, âAn important person?â
He was unfazed, âPersonal bodyguard, extremely important.â
Si Fuqing glanced at the clothes she had picked for Yu Xiheng.
A navy blue suit with a tie, the cufflinks were dark gold, and she had even bought an extra watch.
Then she looked at her own attire.
T-shirt, jeans, and sneakers.
Her fists clenched tighter.
Si Fuqing didnât hold back, and with a âbang,â she landed a punch.
Yu Xiheng quickly admitted his fault, âItâs my mistake.â Si Fuqing gritted her teeth, âWhat mistake?â
Yu Xiheng paused, âI shouldnât have killed you then.â
He hadnât expected that the famous NINE from the Oracle would be her.
There were many girls who played Oracle, including those who played male characters.
But among the top-ranked players, there were very few females.
Moreover, she didnât play games often, so he never connected her with NINE.
But the concept of reincarnation explained the unexplainable.
Si Fuqing nodded coldly, âWhat else?â
âI shouldnât have tricked you into shopping for clothes with me yesterday,â Yu Xiheng said, smiling back at her, âBut I think this looks good. You have an exquisite taste that I cannot match.â
He admitted his fault so quickly and even flattered her.
Si Fuqing found it difficult to continue her interrogation.
Her fox-like eyes narrowed slightly, âYou recognized my voice during that team dungeon, didnât you? Who is Xingchen?â
Yu Xiheng answered, âShen Xingyun.â
Si Fuqing pressed, âYou didnât let him speak.â
Because with her hearing, she would have recognized Shen Xingyunâs voice as soon as he spoke.
Yu Xiheng sighed, âYes.â
Si Fuqing threw another punch, her hands bracing on Yu Xihengâs shoulders, her body pressing close, âIâm angry.â
âI know,â Yu Xiheng let her press down on him, âIâm apologizing.â
âApologies wonât do,â Si Fuqing continued her accusation, âYouâve gone too far, deceiving my feelings!â
Especially since yesterday, she had been so eager to help him choose clothes.
Hearing her last statement, Yu Xihengâs eyebrows lifted, âThatâs not entirely incorrect. â
Si Fuqing felt she needed to reassess her distinguished boss, âYou dare say that, you sneak attacker! So, you are such a person!â
Yu Xiheng no longer defended himself, patiently listening to her complaints.
âYou can walk home by yourself,â Si Fuqing finished her accusations fiercely, âIâm staying here tonight. Donât let me see you.â
Yu Xiheng stood up straight, âShall I come to pick you up tomorrow morning?â âNo need,â Si Fuqing turned her back on him, emphasizing again, âIâm angry, now leave.â
âIf thereâs anything, contact me on my phone, Iâm always available,â Yu Xiheng said, pouring out the two glasses of alcohol before finally exiting and closing the door behind him.
He lowered his gaze.
Such is the temperament ofa young girl..
