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 are you waiting for, waiting to die? (2)

The airport farewell was rushed, and after that, Xu Jingxi rarely sought her out. Even when he did appear, it was late at night to return to Dongshan Villa, to spend a warm night, and by the time she woke up in the morning, he had already dressed and left.

During the month she disappeared, the third floor of the art museum became her personal oil painting exhibition hall, with revenue neither high nor low.

Lovers of Collector's family art were mostly young men and women. Zhang Qisheng always said she still lacked a bit of fame to make a name for herself.

She wasn't in a hurry. During the day, she would paint behind closed doors at the art museum, and at night, she wandered like a lone soul, staying wherever was nearby, most often spending the night on the sofa in her studio.

Unknowingly, she fell asleep.

She saw a fierce, famished wolf, eyeing her neck, leaping at her, its sharp teeth biting down on her frail windpipe, eerily similar to Xu Jingxi...
