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.

Feeling very pampered

But for Song Zhengqing, it didn't matter whether the Crown Prince acknowledged it or not— to him, he was indulging a daughter. But he'd rather wait for the sun to rise from the west than marry, seeing no benefits in it for himself. In the whole Forty-Nine City, who would dare take him as a son-in-law? It would be good enough if marrying him didn't drag down the Xu family's status.

Yet, he was indeed different with that young girl from the south, though it wasn't clear in what way. No need to ponder further, Song Zhengqing reflected, for even if he did, he couldn't fathom his own thoughts.

Arrived in Jin City.

There were none of the red-carpet welcoming ceremonies by various VIPs that one might imagine. Choosing to arrive at night, it was likely that there were urgent matters underway in secret, with no desire to draw public attention.

Song Zhengqing and Xu Jingxi each got into different cars, and after leaving the airport, the two vehicles went in opposite directions.
