Married to a Stranger

"Where are you now?"

"The dorm room."

"Stay right there! I am coming back immediately!"

The call ended abruptly. Gu Xiao Xiao lied down onto the bed powerlessly until her dorm room door was kicked open by someone.

Chu Xiao Xi returned to the dorm room aggressively, slamming shut the door and arriving before Gu Xiao Xiao's bed. She dragged Gu Xiao Xiao up into a sitting position from her zombie-like state.

"What happened? You have to tell me everything right now!"

"Chu Xiao Xi..."

Staring at her best friend who finally returned, Gu Xiao Xiao pouted, feeling wronged. This whole story was long and also sad. Gu Xiao Xiao failed to hold it in and began to cry out loud as her face scrunched together. 

"Don't cry!" Looking at Gu Xiao Xiao's red eyes, the originally furious Chu Xiao Xi had lost all her anger. "You didn't marry Mu Yan Fan? Then who did you marry? That bastard Mu Yan Fan has done something to hurt you hasn't he!"

"Don't mention him anymore. We have broken up." Resting her head on Chu Xiao Xi's shoulder, Gu Xiao Xiao wiped off the tears on her face. She then began to tell her what had happened with Mu Yun Fan and Jin Jing as she cried. Listening to it had made Chu Xiao Xi grit her teeth and she so very much wanted to shred that couple into pieces herself.

"So, you just found a stranger on the street and married yourself off?"

There is some stuff that Gu Xiao Xiao had no courage to tell. Such as what had happened between Chu Yi Chen and her…

"What his last name is, where does he live, and what does he do? You don't know any of it? You don't even have his phone number and you… you married him?"

Gu Xiao Xiao nodded. She too felt like she had been too bold.

Chu Xiao Xi looked at her, not knowing whether to laugh or cry or what she should do with this idiot.

Gu Xiao Xiao and Mu Yan Fan had known each other for more than 10 years. They both left their hometown to attend University B and were a well-known model couple. Mu Yun Fan and Gu Xiao Xiao grew up together and were each other's first love. So this whole situation with Jin Jing must've affected Gu Xiao Xiao a lot.

Chu Xiao Xi never imagined for so many things to have happened within the two weeks she was away. Looking at Gu Xiao Xiao's pitiful ways, she didn't have the heart to blame her. The boat will straighten itself when it reaches the bridge, there will be ways to solve this.

"You are such a stupid girl! I wonder how you got into University B with that brain of yours!"

Chu Xiao Xi poked Gu Xiao Xiao's forehead and suddenly realized that Gu Xiao Xiao's temperature didn't feel right. She touched her forehead again, and it burned.

She quickly pushed Gu Xiao Xiao onto her bed and sighed helplessly.

Gu Xiao Xiao then fell asleep in a haze. Though she wasn't feeling well, she got up on time the next day anyway.

"Where are you going?" Chu Xiao Xi, who had already gotten dressed and was sitting at her desk, asked, "You are very sick and you are planning to go to work?"

"It wasn't easy getting into Feng Yang. I cannot skip work so easily."

Feng Yang Corporation was not only famous in City B, but it was also prominent across the country. The CEO of Feng Yang has without a doubt, entered the list of the richest people in the world. There are so many renowned talents domestically and internationally who fight till their heads bleed to work for this company.

To be an intern at Feng Yang, Gu Xiao Xiao experienced three cruel interviews and was chosen out of hundreds of candidates.

Ten percent. That was the acceptance rate for Feng Yang interns. To become an official employee will require another series of ruthless competition. One percent. That was the standard Feng Yang set for its recruitment.

Knowing Gu Xiao Xiao's personality, Chu Xiao Xi sighed. She didn't know what to do with her. So she got dressed and said, "Let's go. I will take you there."

Because she came in such a rush last night, Chu Xiao Xi drove her car over. She dropped off the pale-faced Gu Xiao Xiao at the entrance of Feng Yang Corporation. After Chu Xiao Xi asked about when Gu Xiao Xiao would get off work, she returned to her own busy life.

No matter how awful things turn out, life goes on.

Gu Xiao Xiao mumbled to herself, walked to the elevator in large steps, and pushed into the busy elevator.
