300 Please Me 22 (2/2)

for visiting.

”Why haven't I seen you around before? I would've heard about the existence of such a gorgeous girl like you long ago,” Xi Boyu questioned.

Upon hearing his words, Mei Yangyang knew right away that Xi Boyu was a scum of the elite, just like his brother.

”I don't think I'm very pretty. Maybe you guys have different tastes in women. But, I'm often alienated because of the attention I enjoy. The other girls don't seem to like me, so I'm always by myself. They don't like talking about me either. Besides, I'm such a homebody. Other than the times when I'm working, I'll be reading in the dormitory most of the time,” Mei Yangyang explained.

”I see, you don't have to return to the dormitory anymore. Don't bother collecting your belongings either. Just live with me from now on. We've just met, and there's a lot for us to find out about each other. We ought to spend more time together to nurture our feelings and get to know each other better,” he said with a nod.

”Could you promise me something?” she asked, pursing her lips.

”What is it?”

”Before we get to know each other completely, could you not touch me?”

”I can't get intimate with you?” Xi Boyu asked, a frown creasing his forehead.

”I've never had a boyfriend before. Thus, I'd like to give myself to him only when I feel safe and ready,” said Mei Yangyang, feeling a little guilty for lying through her teeth.

His eyes lit up upon hearing her words. He was pleased to hear that the pure and innocent-looking Mei Yangyang was still a virgin.

”Alright, I promise to give you some time. How does a week sound?”

Mei Yangyang's stomach twisted into a knot. She was not confident that one week was sufficient for her to rescue An Xiaoning.

”How about two weeks?” Noticing that he was a little upset, she quickly stood up and began playing cute and fawning over him. ”Okay?”

At last, he finally gave in and agreed, ”Alright, I promise.”

”Thank you.”

After dinner, Mei Yangyang changed into the set of clothes Xi Boyu had prepared for her and left together with him.

Mei Yangyang pushed herself to continue accompanying him, despite the fact that she had yet to get enough proper rest.

She was extremely perturbed at the moment, though she considered herself lucky to have made it this far unexpectedly. Thus, she became more confident that she could rescue An Xiaoning.

——

An Xiaoning had not reported to the police station in days. Meanwhile, with the exception of Zu Dong who had gone undercover in a drug ring, the rest of her colleagues had also been taking a break on paid leave, as promised by the Bureau Chief.

However, they were extremely puzzled and curious about An Xiaoning's absence. Pan Zhenghui then told them that An Xiaoning was ill and resting in bed.

Although Pan Zhenghui did not quite believe Jin Qingyan's words, there was nothing else he could do.

The Gu family were flustered and anxious, but likewise, all they could do was wait. The outcome would still be the same even if Gu Beicheng were to send his bodyguards to Y Nation.

Chi Rui'er was exceptionally thrilled to hear about the mishap An Xiaoning had met with.

An Xiaoning had long become her arch nemesis whom she detested to the core.

Her hatred towards An Xiaoning would never be resolved even with time.

Now that she would not have to deal with An Xiaoning herself since there was someone else to do it for her, what's not to rejoice about?

Although she was in high spirits, she began to notice red flags in her marriage with Gu Dongcheng.

They had gotten married in a shotgun wedding; the child they had out of wedlock was the only reason Gu Dongcheng had agreed to marry her. In fact, she was never serious about Gu Dongcheng either. Ever since they got married, they had been arguing almost every other day. Gu Dongcheng felt that she was being extremely inconsiderate and not understanding at all towards his busy work schedule. To make matters worse, her mother had moved in together with them, which greatly irked him. 'Xiao' means 'little' and 'Yang' means 'sheep' in Mandarin.
