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.

What does a marriage certificate count for?

Tonight, the porch of the Jingli Hotel was filled with countless Maybachs and Rolls-Royces.

Senior executives from Li Group and directors of large enterprises in Shanghai City were signing contracts in the adjacent private rooms, involving capital flows on both sides.

Li Group aimed to monopolize all the quotas for foreign-funded enterprises to invest in projects in Shanghai City, which they couldn't achieve on their own.

The funds were sufficient, but funds alone were not enough, so they sought Xu Jingxi's help.

Xu Jingxi was naturally willing to assist, as he planned to pave a broader path for CITIC's development in Shanghai, which required a major enterprise willing to face challenges head-on for CITIC.

Li Group was the most suitable candidate.

Meanwhile, Mr. Xu was in another private room, having dinner with Mrs. Xu.

Endowed with immense connections and stature, the Xu surname meant he never needed to show himself from start to finish.
