"Well, maybe we really misunderstood her..."
The students were discussing among themselves and their opinions about "Gu Wenxi" gradually changed.
Xue Qiqi stood frozen.
She thought back to what Guan Xi had whispered in her ear and she felt as though she had fallen into an ice cave.
"Student Xue, although you're little antics bore me, they have caused me a great deal of trouble. It was you who schemed against me, so now, you're being punished for it. This ends here. I mean, if you want to continue, that's fine by me, but I guarantee you that you will regret it."
When Xue Qiqi heard Gu Wenxi say these words to her, she thought that it was very laughable.
How could a person like Gu Wenxi make her 'regret it'?
However, her gentle tone made her feel like as if there was an ice-cold snake slithering across the ridge of her back.
It was like the whisper of a demon.
...
Guan Xi was a little annoyed by Gu Wenxi's poor reputation in school.
How could such an outstanding, cute, and beautiful beauty like her be labeled as a lewd woman?
The words she said to Xue Qiqi just before she left should be able to slightly change the way her classmates viewed her.
As for the rest, she'll have to take it slow.
Regardless, her husband was really awesome.
Xiao Jingming just gave him a call and he immediately helped her.
She must properly thank him tonight.
...
After school, Guan Xi returned to the Xiao residence.
When her husband had caught her in the Purple Night Club and brought her back to the mansion, she ceased being Xia Mei's stunt double.
And now that she had signed a contract with Emperor Shang, there was no going back to that life.
The production crew had called her a few times and told her to come in.
She went there once because she didn't want to leave them in a lurch. She also thought that it was best to finish what she started.
However, since Xia Mei believed that Guan Xi had stolen her funding, seduced Director Wang, and stole Xiao Jiuyan in the Purple Night Club, she had thrown a tantrum. She told the production crew that if Guan Xi was there, she would leave.
Guan Xi left immediately.
Without Guan Xi as Xia Mei's stunt double, Xia Mei's action scenes as a policewoman were a complete mess. Although she had also found other stunt doubles, none of them have Guan Xi's neatness and grace.
The director even wanted to replace Xia Mei.
Actually, when he heard that Master Xiao Jiuyan had taken Guan Xi away, he was bummed. He had already taken a liking to her.
He even tried to lure her into an agreement with him. He was more than willing to re-shoot if she had said yes.
However, Guan Xi declined. She had said, "Master Jiu doesn't want me to go. He's afraid that I'll be too weak and too hard on myself."
With this sentence, the production crew did not dare to call again.
Guan Xi gleefully marveled at Xiao Jiuyan's reach and power.
...
Guan Xi went straight to the kitchen when she got back to the mansion.
The chefs were already preparing dinner and dessert.
Guan Xi walked up to the plump Aunt Wang and asked politely, "Aunt Wang, is dinner ready?"
Aunt Wang replied with a smile, "Not yet. Is Madam hungry? If you are, I baked a cake earlier. Do you want to eat a piece to fill your stomach first?"
Guan Xi shook her head, blushing adorably. "I'm not hungry. I just want to say..."
She stuttered as if she was just a shy young girl, "Can I cook Master Jiu's dinner tonight? You can give me some guidance."
Aunt Wang's eyes lit up and she said lovingly, "Madam, if you want to prepare Master Jiu's dinner, I'd be more than happy to teach you."
Guan Xi clapped happily. "Thank you, Aunt Wang."
