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.

Teach her to write

Leh Ying blinked and asked curiously, "So, did Sir get drunk last night too?"

Uncle Lian walked away with his hands behind his back, wondering whether he got drunk or not, why ask him? He didn't seek out Sir last night. If there were matters to attend to, he would make a phone call and have someone from below send clothes over.

"I'm just here to mind the garden and feed the birds," Uncle Lian said. "Having eaten your fill, you can entertain yourself in the garden. I'll go outside to sweep up. There are no maids here, it's usually peaceful. If you need something, just call out."

Leh Ying nodded and said that sounded good.

With so many people, so much chatter, Xu Jingxi wouldn't recklessly invite a crowd to watch over the garden. Even the Xu family didn't know he had this place in his possession.

The little sparrows under the eaves chirped noisily at Leh Ying.
