Chapter 252 - Gu Zhi (1/2)

In a large mansion at the outskirts of city S. A man was sitting in a couch in the living room. He was wearing a dark blue suit with a glass of wine in his right hand.

He twirled the wine glass as an evil smirk graced his beautiful lips.

The new young maid who was sent to bring him cigar couldn't help but feel petrified. She has heard stories about her new boss from the other workers and she couldn't help but be scared of him.

He is the devil people say, she didn't believe it at first until she saw him gouging out her man's eyes with his bare hands.

She swallowed as his intense eyes stared at her as if she was a prey. The maid couldn't help gulp and pause in her steps. His presence was too powerful for a lowly maid like her.

”Are you scared of me?” He asked, his voice making her blood run cold.

'Should I say yes or I should lie?'

The question swirled in her mind with her head bowed down.

”I asked you a question.” He stated calmly.

The maid look at him with fear laced in her eyes.

The maid couldn't help but feel intimidated by how intense his gaze was. She suddenly became conscious of her look. She knew she looked horrible now.

While he looked so perfect, how can someone look so perfect? Feeling nervous by his intense stare, the maid looked down at the down.

”Look a wee t me.” He said with his voice radiating power. Now she finally knew why they called him the devil.

Taking a deep breath she slowly looked up at him. Her eyes met his and she found herself not able to look away. There was something about his eyes that scared her. It's like he could see right through her soul.

No wonder he was the devil, his gaze alone can make a man get a cardiac arrest.

”What's your name?”

'Where is he asking my name?'

”Yu—Xi”

She breathed out. The man nodded.

”Little Yu are you afraid of me?”

The man asked as he tapped his fingers on the hand of the couch.

”Y-yes.”

The man smirked and took a sip of his wine.

”Hmm...you should.”

Little Yu swallowed at his words.

”Do you play chess?” The man suddenly asked surprising Amy.

Amy gave him a puzzled look. Did he just—

”Chess?” She breathed out barely audible.

The man crooked his eyebrows at her without saying anything. The silence was was driving Yun Xi crazy.

She took a step back in fear as the man stood up and started walking towards her.

She froze at her place when she saw the warning look in the mans eyes. As if he was taunting her to try and make a move.

It felt like forever until he was so close that she could feel his breath on her face.

”Can you play little kitty?” Yun Xi frowned when she heard the endearment but she knew better than to argue with the devil.
