Chapter 10: Can you pour me a glass of juice?
It was just an angry outburst, only meant to be words, yet I never really expected that after flying for over ten hours...
I didn't see Yu Xiuli even once, but we were on the same plane...
And only less than five meters apart, yet we managed to completely avoid each other, which is pretty ridiculous.
Gu Xia was tired and dozed off hazily in the private cabin.
She woke up in the middle of the night, having forgotten there was a washroom inside the cabin.
So she stumbled out the door, only to bump into someone unexpectedly...
"Excuse me, I really have to pee," Gu Xia said, groggily waving her hand, without really seeing who was in front of her.
Gu Xia was indeed groggy from sleep, so her mind was a blur as she got up.
She pushed past the obstacle before her without a second thought, heading straight for the washroom.
Coming back, she finally saw a figure leaning against the door to her cabin.
To be precise, it was a tall figure dressed in black.
Gu Xia rubbed her eyes, her mind clearing a bit.
Looking carefully...
She saw a man with his eyes closed, leaning on the cabin door, clearly blocking her way back.
His arms were crossed, but the black V-neck he wore was undeniably sexy.
Under the dim light of the night, the skin on his chest was faintly visible.
What was more infuriating was that, even with his eyes closed, it was clear that he was exceptionally handsome.
Chiseled features, thin lips, plus that perfect short hair like something out of a cartoon.
He looked like an exquisitely still portrait...
Gu Xia clutched at her chest and thought—oh no, is this what a heart attack feels like? No, is this what being smitten feels like?
Am I such a shallow person? The answer is... of course.
Who doesn't like someone with high attractiveness? This guy is damn good-looking, incredibly so.
With that in mind, she cleared her throat, "Ahem... You're still up this late?"
Upon hearing her voice, Yu Xiuli slowly opened his eyes, those eyes that were surely the most beautiful pair Gu Xia had ever seen. They were like a deep pool that could drown someone in a second.
Yu Xiuli's eyes shimmered with a flicker of confusion as to why Gu Xia was so nonchalant.
To be exact, this was also their first proper encounter, right?
How could she not be surprised at all? Could it be... she's incredibly composed?
Yu Xiuli had just started to think highly of Gu Xia when, the next second, his thoughts were shattered...
Because Gu Xia said, "It must not be easy being an attendant on a private jet, right? President Yu must pay you quite well, doesn't he?
Yu Xiuli: ...
"If you don't mind, could you pour me a glass of juice? I'd like orange juice, preferably with some sugar," Gu Xia requested with a smile.
Yu Xiuli: ...
It turns out she mistook him for an attendant... Her intelligence really is...
"Have you ever seen such a good-looking attendant?" That was the first thing Yu Xiuli said to Gu Xia.
They say beautiful people are narcissistic, so someone as good-looking as Yu Xiuli is naturally... extremely so.
Thus, he quite indignantly asked Gu Xia, have you ever seen such a good-looking attendant?
Damn it, Gu Xia pondered while pinching her chin and thought hard for three seconds.
Then she nodded, "Now that I have, yes. The world is full of wonders... But look, with your looks, being an attendant is a waste... If you went to Qingguo Qingcheng, you'd probably be the top card, making millions a year without a problem."
After hearing this, Yu Xiuli felt like turning green... Qingguo Qingcheng, top card? What did she take him for?
What kind of place was Qingguo Qingcheng? The most famous private club in City G, with lavish decadence and wanton pleasures, a den of iniquity like no other, full of countless handsome men and beautiful women.
Elsewhere, the young men and women from nightclubs earn their keep by socializing, supposedly charged by the hour, earning maybe a thousand or two per hour.
But in Qingguo Qingcheng, it's counted by the second, and they are classified into four grades: A, B, C, D.
