Gu Yuxuan became fl.u.s.tered immediately . The little rabbits in her heart started hopping around excitedly again .

Murong Xu walked up to her and leaned forward . Just when she thought that he was going to kiss her, she shut her eyes tightly . Her cheeks were so red that water was going to start dripping from them .

Murong Xu stretched out his hand and reached for the bowl on the coffee table . He burst into laughter .

Gu Yuxuan did not get the kiss she was waiting for . Instead, she got a trail of happy laughter . She opened her eyes blankly and saw him drinking the soup from the bowl while smiling at her .

Gu Yuxuan was so embarra.s.sed she wanted to find a hole in the ground and bury herself in it . She pushed him away and plunged herself onto the bed while looking distressed . She buried her small head under the pillow .

Murong Xu finished the ginger soup and laughed even more heartily . The furious Gu Yuxuan sat up suddenly and threw a pillow at him .

Murong Xu caught the pillow swiftly and the second one came his way . He caught it smoothly again and that laughter did not stop .

Gu Yuxuan was so angry she wanted to bang her head against the wall . How dare this a.s.s to mock her! He was asking to be beaten up!

This time around, Gu Yuxuan did not throw any more pillow at him . She casually grabbed a bolster and charged towards him .

Gu Yuxuan slammed the bolster into him and dodged it with all smiles on his face . Between waves of laughter, he fell onto the sofa . In that moment of free fall, he did not forget to pull Gu Yuxuan down as well . She ended up falling into his warm and st.u.r.dy embrace .

Murong Xu chuckled and said, "My wife, I didn't expect you to be so pro-active and take the initiative to straddle me down . "

"I didn't! You were the one that pulled me," Gu Yuxuan pouted her small mouth and reb.u.t.ted .

But her expression was so cute and Murong Xu was too attracted to it .

He put his hand over her waist and held her tightly in his arms . He pecked on her delicate lips gently .

One simple touch was all it took and he found himself unable to stop .

The loving atmosphere started spreading around the room, filling the air with pink bubbles . What followed after was a lot of tossing and turning, like in a tumultuous rain .

. . .

On the second day, Murong Xu realized that while the consequence of recklessness was very sweet, they still had to pay a price for it . Both of them were now sick .

In the morning, the two patients suffering from severe cold sat at the dining table . They sneezed and pinched their noses together .

Murong Yunxi smiled as she looked at the two, teasing them with that gaze of hers . Gu Yuxuan felt very uncomfortable when she had her breakfast, as if she was sitting on pins and needles .

Gu Yuxuan stood up hurriedly . "I'm heading off to work . "

Murong Yunxi stopped smiling and looked at her concerned . "Why are you so hardworking? You're sick, do you want to take the day off?"

"I don't have such a good like like you, Chairman Murong . I'm just a small staff on probation, it's better for me to go!"

Hearing that, Murong Yunxi suddenly realized that she was now the Chairman of Xing Shang .

She hesitated a little before saying, "Oh, right, I'm now the Chairman of Xing Shang! Um, should I go there and introduce myself?"

Gu Yuxuan was dumbfounded and she looked at her . "This is depressing, this person reincarnated well, even going to work is casual . "

Murong Yunxi chuckled and looked at her . "Okay, wait for me, I'll go with you to work . "

"I don't want to . " Gu Yuxi immediately refused in horror .

Murong Yunxiao was startled at her big reaction . "Why not?"

"Because everyone doesn't know about our relations.h.i.+p . You are not just a normal person now . It's best if I stay far away from you . "

Gu Yuxuan explained her thoughts very bluntly . This caused Murong Yunxi to feel a little disturbed . She had grown up with Gu Yuxuan and the two were always so closely united that nothing could come between them . Yet now they were starting to grow distant . This was the reality that Murong Yunxi did not want to see . "

Gu Yuxuan saw her facial expression change a little and instantly realized that she had said something wrong . She quickly went up and wrap her arm around Murong Yunxi's and said, "Xiao Xi, don't take it wrong, I didn't mean it . It's just that you are now a well-known person in Xing Shang and is the topic of everyone's discussion . Yesterday I heard them gossipping about you and I couldn't hold it in and said something to defend you . They asked if I know you, so in order to increase my credibility, I said no . Actually, I just want to enter the enemy's ground for you, so don't misunderstand me . "

The corners of Murong Yunxi's lips twitched a little and it formed into a slightly-forced smile .

"Okay, I understand! Then you should go first, I'll go later . "

Gu Yuxuan looked at her with a tint of uneasiness . "Please don't take it to heart . "

Murong Yunxi smiled faintly . "It's okay, we've already been friends for so many years . "

Gu Yuxuan picked up her bag and walked towards the door . Murong Xu grabbed his car keys and followed along . "Let's go, I'll send you . "

"Forget it, you're sick, and you've eaten some medicine . I'll just get a ride on my own . "

"No way, sending you is just one of it, I have other intentions . "

Gu Yuxuan looked at him full of doubts .

"You will know when we get there . "

After Gu Yuxuan left, Murong Yunxi called Fourth .

When the phone was connected, a lazy voice came from the other end, suggesting that he was still sleeping . "h.e.l.lo?"

"Get up, tidy yourself and pick me up, we're going to Xing Shang . "

"We're going to Xing Shang?"

"Yea! We're going there, I'm now the Chairman of Xing Shang, I have to at least show up . "

"Young Miss, Xing Shang is such a tiny business . Big Master never took it seriously and have always been leaving it at a side . "

"That's because bro has too many things to take care of . But I only have this business, so I should still go and take a look . I'll take it as a practice . "

"You're for real? Just be your Young Miss, why are you doing all these? Which Young Miss wouldn't focus on being a rich second generation and instead meddle in all these messy things?"

"I just want to do something legit to make myself stronger and not rely on other people's status to protect myself . "

On the other end of the line, Fourth paused for a moment before replying, "Wait for me, I'll reach within half an hour . "

One hour later, Murong Yunxi really appeared at the door of Xing Shang's building .

When the receptionist saw Murong Yunxi coming, she was fl.u.s.tered and started panicking .

She knew Murong Yunxi . Without doubt, not only did Murong Yunxi gained fame from the movie "Where Does Love Belong", more importantly, she was now the new Chairman of Xing Shang . The news had already started spreading across the industry, the entertainment industry, as well as the fas.h.i.+on industry .

Seeing such an important figure arriving, the receptionist immediately picked up the phone and dialed for the Director's office .

In less than five minutes, Wu Sen led a bunch of people and arrived at the building's door .

Murong Yunxi was not used to this welcoming but she kept a still face .

She greeted Wu Sen calmly, "Director Wu, please forgive me for coming so suddenly . "

"Not at all! You're the Chairman, it is your job to come and inspect anytime . Besides, this is your first time here, of course, we have to welcome you . "

"I wouldn't call this an inspection . Director Wu has managed Xing Shang well . I'm here to learn . "

Wu Sen looked at the small woman in front of him who seemed like she was not putting up a front . He naturally found himself liking her . On the other hand, the man beside her had a very cold expression and looked a little daunting .

Murong Yunxi saw Wu Sen's gaze and introduced him . "This is my a.s.sistant . "

And at this moment, Murong Yunxi's heart froze . She still did not know what Fourth's name was?

She turned to look at Fourth, who summarized in a low voice, "Just call me Kevin . "

Director Wu nodded and shook hands with him . He then turned to Murong Yunxi and spoke in a firm tone, "Chairman Yun, please come this way . I'll bring you around . "

Hearing Wu Sen's way of addressing, Fourth could not help but lifted his brow . He turned and glanced at Murong Yunxi, but she did not say anything . Hence, he followed behind her quietly .

Wu Sen roughly showed Murong Yunxi around Xing Shang . The whole magazine publisher was a four-story independent small building . It was not big nor small . A casual tour around the place already took one and a half hours .

When Murong Yunxi saw Gu Yuxuan, she did not cast her another look . She pretended to not know her and walked past . It was team leader Iris who pointed it out specifically as an attempt to get closer to Murong Yunxi . "Chairman Yun, Gill here is your schoolmate . I heard from her that you were quite well-known during your schooling days . Now that I've met you in person, you're really both talented and pretty . "

Murong Yunxi chuckled and looked at Iris . "You're over-complimenting me . "

She then glanced at Gu Yuxuan and nodded slightly, as if they had just met .

After one round of tour, Wu Sen led Murong Yunxi into the Chairman's office . Actually, this office was prepared for Murong Ye a long time ago, but he never came here once . On the contrary, this was Murong Yunxi's first time entering this office .

One look was all it took to tell that the office was decorated according to Murong Ye's taste . Murong Yunxi glanced around and Wu Sen stepped forward hurriedly to explain, "Chairman Yun, we didn't manage to prepare because your takeover was too sudden . If you have any ideas towards the office, feel free to bring it up and I'll get someone to make the changes . "

"No need, let's leave it like this," Murong Yunxi replied lightly . She did not care too much about the work environment, so she did not find it necessary to make any changes .

Murong Yunxi walked up to her seat and sat down . The boss' chair was indeed comfortable . She smiled in her heart: Chairman Yun . . . what a fantasy . She had never dreamt of sitting at this seat .

Wu Sen walked up and stood in front of her . "Does Chairman Yun need anything else?"

Murong Yunxi thought about it . "I want to first understand the business at Xing Shang . But Director Wu, please do not misunderstand . I just want to familiarize myself with Xing Shang . I have no intention of regaining the authority . "

Wu Sen nodded with a smile and turned to return to his office to retrieve the doc.u.ments .

Just as he had turned towards the door, someone knocked on the door . An a.s.sistant came in looking worried and said, "Director Wu, there's a problem with the cover model for this issue . Right now Editor Qi does not know what to do and would like to discuss with you . "
