Shi Jingjing

Leh Ying found herself acquainted with the higher echelons she should not aspire to, and when the profligate young master Liu Huaiying pursued her relentlessly, she had no escape.
A fleeting glimpse of Young Master Xu, Xu Jingxi's appearance, had her heart fluttering, and her spirit moved; the Xu family was the center of power within Forty-Nine City, and only he could change the game.
On a snowy night, by the door of the Mercedes Benz G Class, she tiptoed and gently cupped her palm to light a cigarette for Xu Jingxi.
The man’s lips leisurely wrapped around the cigarette, and he leaned slightly towards her. His clear-cut face partially lowered into the backlight’s shadow, the flame at the tip of the cigarette flickered faintly between them. When he finally looked up, his eyes were calm and indifferent, and he asked in a rising inflection, “What do you want?”
Leh Ying, “Only what you can give.”
Others quickly realized, “That Xu Jingxi, born into high chambers, his flesh and bones saturated with a profound desire for power. For someone like him, even feelings are superfluous. What do you have to gamble your status with him?”
Keeping her by his side was merely Xu Jingxi’s pastime for his loneliness.
He was accustomed to acting out scenes, she never sought status, and turned to leave the capital to hold an art exhibition.
Just as she packed and entered the elevator, Xu Jingxi stood tall in the center, his index finger slowly hooking the fine bone necklace at the front of her neck and gently pulling her back as she moved to step out.

That Valentine's Day night, within the Third Ring, luxury hotels were fully booked, and some witnessed the entire BVG Hotel being reserved by Young Master Xu.
What left the deepest impression on Leh Ying was the man half-kneeling on the bed, wearing a loosely tied bathrobe, biting on a pen cap, and picking up a Thin Gold Calligraphy Style brush to inscribe three characters along the edge of her collarbone—Xu Jingxi.

Extreme Addiction

Leh Ying: "Hmm, consider it an off-campus internship."


Xu Jingxi: "Do you make a lot of money?"


Leh Ying sent a shy smiley emoji: "You wouldn't understand my joy, restoring artifacts, mixing colors, all these are skills to be learned."


When he didn't respond, Leh Ying didn't push further.


It was a clear understanding of the Xu family's status in Forty-Nine City.


Hold power, and those attending flock en masse.


Li Ting got up, thinking she was chatting with 185: "Why don't you give it a try with 185, you'll have company when buying tickets to go home, someone to help you carry your bags and luggage."


Leh Ying rubbed Li Ting's head, "If you're worried about me having no one to carry my bags, why don't you fly with me and then transfer."


Li Ting gently pinched her arm, not really hurting her, just horsing around: "Try to get along, be friends at least, don't be so cold towards others."


One phrase is more ambiguous than the last.
