Extreme Addiction

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.

Don't understand me? (1)

Leh Ying wanted to take a bath, but communication with the maid was fruitless, so she picked up her tablet and went into her room.

The maid, helpless, reported to the affluent young master one by one, "Just like a few days ago, she didn't eat much, complained about the heat, insisted on taking a bath, and wouldn't take no for an answer, her eyes would turn red."

The young master turned the steering wheel in a circle, frowning.

The words were the same as last night's, making it seem as though if he didn't return soon, she would turn the house upside down in protest.

It was already cold by the time Xu Jingxi returned at night, pushing open the door to the bedroom.

Leh Ying sat in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, lost in thought, with a brown chequered shawl draped over her shoulders, gracefully lifting her cup of sheep's milk tea to her lips, her silhouette lonely and solitary.

Lost in her own world, she didn't notice his return.
