Chapter 253: Dilemma!

West Wind University. Weiming Lake.

A girl in a long white dress carrying a thick book took a seat at the pavilion by the lake, opened the book and carefully began to read.

In front were dark blue water, translucent like jade, the sun setting in the west, and in the distant center was the gleaming reflection of waves in sunlight, like countless silver fish jumping out of the surface at the same time.

The breeze gently blew, wafting the perfume of flowers.

There were birds chirping and insects crying, and the earthy-sweet smell of soil. This was a fascinating picture.

“I heard that the Weiming Lake of West Wind University has the world's most beautiful sunset, we meet at West Wind to see the sunset at Weiming Lake together?” A boy's voice sounded softly in her ear.

Cui Xiaoxin lifted her head, blankly looking around. She was surrounded by a peaceful silence and there was not a shadow in sight.

She shook her head and put her mind back on the book once again.

She looked at every word seriously, but it did not leave any impression on her mind. The handwriting flashed through her eyes like flickering light and pa.s.sing shadows, then vanished without a trace.

Cui Xiaoxin, looking troubled, shut the book and gazed at the sunset reflected in the lake in a daze.

“We meet at West Wind to see the sunset of Weiming Lake together?”

The boy's words were still on her mind, but now they lived far apart from each other and they would perhaps never meet again.

Thinking of this, Cui Xiaoxin felt somewhat disappointed and frustrated.

“Miss——Miss——”

The hurried voice of a woman sounded over.

Cui Xiaoxin looked over to see her maid Cui'er running over, panting.

“Miss, I've been looking for you, so you were here——” Gasping for breath, Cui'er's speech was incoherent.

Cui Xiaoxin raised her brow, saying, “Don't panic, speak slowly.”

“Miss, you told me to pay attention to the news of Li s.h.i.+nian. So I have been watching her, just now I received information that Li s.h.i.+nian is in danger——” Cui'er said anxiously.

“Who did it?” Cui Xiaoxin hurriedly asked.

“Our family——I think Gu Mo is in charge.” Cui'er replied.

Cui Xiaoxin frowned. “If it is Gu Mo, that is the order of Grandfather. The situation might be bad.”

“Yes. Gu Mo did not go himself, I heard he also brought a lot of family generals with him, Miss s.h.i.+nian certainly can't defend herself.”

“What about the Lu family?” Cui Xiaoxin asked.

“I don't know about the Lu family. The person who secretly follows her was in a hurry to let us know and don't know about the situation after——”

“Is Cousin Xiangma in Tiandu?” Cui Xiaoxin asked.

“Miss, your cousin Xiagnma hasn't come to see you for a while.”
