Chapter 2011

Xia Xiaodie rang the doorbell, and soon, the door of the villa was pulled open.

It was not Gu Yilin, but the Auntie.

Of course, the Auntie knew Xia Xiaodie. On the last rainy night, this little girl had run here in the same way. At that time, the young master had rushed into the rain to see her despite the heavy rain, and had even brought her to his room, but later, the Aunty heard that the young master had broken up with this girl. From then on, Xia Xiaodie’s name became taboo.

“Miss, it’s you. Why are you here on a rainy day?”

Xia Xiaodie looked at the Aunty. “Hello, Aunty. is president Gu Here? I want to see President Gu.”

“The young master is here, but... the young master may not... want to see you.”The aunty stuttered, feeling very troubled.

“Auntie, can you please go in and tell him that I really have something urgent to see him?”

“Alright then, I’ll go in and tell the young master. Miss, please wait for a while.”

The Auntie returned to the villa and went up to the second floor. “Knock, Knock.”She knocked on the door of the study.

Very soon, a low and steady voice came from inside, “Come in.”

The Auntie pushed the door open and entered. Gu Yilin sat in his office chair with a pen in his hand. He signed his name on the document and read it attentively.

“Young Master.”

The Auntie went forward, wanting to say something but stopping.

......

Gu Yilin did not raise his head. He was wearing a white shirt with two loose buttons, revealing his exquisite collarbone. His sleeves were rolled up twice, and every detail showed the high-quality life of the upper-class people, “Auntie, what’s the matter?”

The Auntie straightened her neck and mustered up her courage to say, “Young master, Miss Xia is here. She’s just outside the door. She says she wants to see you.”

The pen in Gu Yilin’s hand suddenly paused, then he raised his head, and his deep narrow eyes fell on the Auntie’s face.

He did not say anything, but the Auntie’s hair stood on end. “Young master, this Miss Xia...”

“Let Her Go, I won’t see her,”gu Yilin said coldly.

“Young master, it’s... raining outside, and the sky is very dark. Miss Xia ran over in the rain alone. I think... She’s quite pitiful. She said she wants to see you, it must be something urgent. Why Don’t you let Miss Xia come in? It Won’t take more than a few minutes. Young master, Look...”

“Pa!”Gu Yilin threw the pen in his hand onto the desk. He looked at the auntie, “Auntie, you’ve talked too much today.”

The Auntie’s face turned pale, “Yes, young master. I’ll let Miss Xia leave now.”

The Auntie left.

Gu Yilin leaned his straight back lazily into the chair. Then, he raised his hand to pinch the space between his tired eyebrows. He got up and went to the balcony.

He put his hands in his trouser pockets and looked down. There was a slim and beautiful figure standing in the corridor below. Xia Xiaodie was there.

It was a little cold tonight. Coupled with the autumn rain, it was even colder. She was wearing a long black t-shirt that reached above her knees. Her pure black hair flowed down her shoulders, and her small face was as white as jade. It was clean and beautiful, it was still tempting to look at her.

The aunt opened the villa’s door. “Miss, young master is working now and won’t be seeing any guests. Why Don’t you go back first? Come back another day.”

Xia Xiaodie stood there and refused to leave. Her soft and pleasant voice sounded, and it sounded like she was begging, “Aunt, I really have something urgent to see President Gu. I know he doesn’t want to see me, and I don’t want to make things difficult for you. I’ll just stand here and wait for him. When he leaves tomorrow morning, I’ll be able to see him at least once.”

The Aunty had never seen such a stubborn girl. She could only sigh, “Miss, I advise you to go back. It’s raining and windy at night. Don’t catch a cold.”

The aunty closed the door of the villa.

Gu Yilin lowered his eyes and looked at Xia Xiaodie below. She still did not leave. She stood alone in the rain. The drizzle became heavier and heavier, wetting her clothes and long hair.

After not seeing her for so many days, her body under the long black T-shirt had lost a lot of weight.

Gu Yilin stood still for a while, then returned to his room. He took out his phone and dialed the number of his personal secretary, Li Fan.

“Hello, president, what can I do for You?”

Gu Yilin put one hand in his trouser pocket and held the phone with one hand. He said calmly, “Check the recent movements of the Yang family.”

“Yes, President. Please wait a moment.”

Soon, the secretary, Li Fan, replied, “President, I’ve checked. Recently, someone has tampered with the Yang family. The financial chain of the Yang family has been completely cut off. The bank won’t give any loans. I heard that the court will close down the Yang family tomorrow.”

Gu Yilin’s handsome face was expressionless, but his deep narrow eyes narrowed slightly. “Have you found out who did it?”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Yes... Young Master Nan. Young Master Nan even invited Miss Xia to meet him at the mansion in 1998. He wants to sign a three-year agreement with Miss Xia. These three years... these three years...”

Li Fan did not want to say anymore.

Gu Yilin’s handsome brows furrowed, and his breathing became colder. Li Fan, who was on the other end of the line, was so frightened that he held his breath.

“Got it.”

Gu Yilin directly hung up the phone.

..

Xia Xiaodie had been standing in the rain waiting. Her entire body was drenched by the rain, and even her breathing was so cold that there was no warmth at all.

She had to wait for Gu Yilin.

Right now, besides Gu Yilin, she did not know who else she could look for.

After an unknown period of time, the front door of the villa in front suddenly opened. Bright yellow lights shone out from inside, accompanied by a tall and handsome figure.

Gu Yilin appeared.

Xia Xiaodie’s eyes lit up. She wanted to go forward, but she had stood for too long, and her legs were numb. With this movement, she directly fell onto the grass.

At this moment, a low and slightly sarcastic voice sounded above her head, “I didn’t expect you to be true to Yang Kai in times of adversity.”

Xia Xiaodie looked up. Gu Yilin stood on the steps of the corridor with his hands in his pockets. His deep and narrow eyes looked down at her from above, distant and cold.

Xia Xiaodie curled her white fingers and pinched her fingernails into her palms. “Master Gu, Can... can... please help...”

Gu Yilin looked at her in the rain. He lowered his eyebrows and showed a humble attitude. He did look like he was begging for help. He curled his thin lips. “When did you hook up with Nan Cheng?”

Nan Cheng?

He already knew?

Gu Yilin slowly kneeled on one knee. His slender fingers wrapped in a white shirt reached out and gently pinched her small jaw. His thin lips curved into a mocking arc, “You’re quite good at seducing men. Although I was self-indulgent in the past, you’ve hugged and kissed me before in order to act with me. Don’t you find it disgusting to be together with Nan Cheng Now?”

Xia Xiaodie’s fair eyes slowly turned red. Butterfly Yujie trembled a few times before raising her red lips, “So, between president Gu and young master Nan, I chose President Gu without hesitation because president gu is more powerful than young master Nan, isn’t that right?”
