Under The Protection Of House Potter

The billionaire’s haunted house

… “One fifty.” I heard someone shout. “One sixty.” Another said immediately. “Two hundred.” “Five hundred thousand dollars.” “Five hundred thousand dollars, going once, going twice, sold.” Cesar announced and everybody clapped. “What was that?” Drego barked. “What?” I blinked, my smile slowly dissipating. “Why did you agree to stand up there? And looking like this for that matter.” I frowned. “Like what?” “Did you enjoy the fact that men were bidding on you like some prost—” My palms flew and landed on Drego’s face before I could understand what I was doing. “You don’t get to judge how I decide to look. Who the hell do you think you are to judge me? I did what I did for charity. You’re my boss, don’t cross any lines.” I turned around to leave. “Wait. Nichole I’m sorry.” He said more calmly. I looked at him again. “Because I told you that I was in love with you doesn’t make it okay for you to get involved in my personal life and decisions.” “It’s not like—” “Don’t worry. The day I quit was my first day getting over you. You don’t have to worry about that crazy talk. I’m over you. And I’ll leave your company the second you find my replacement and you won’t have to see me anymore.” “Nichole please listen—” “Drego, you’re up.” Reid came outside. His expression changed. It was no surprise. The tension between Drego and I was palpable. “Is everything okay?” Reid asked. “Yeah.” I replied. “We are done here.”

Wu Xiuxin almost ended her life after a tragic incident that erased all her memories, leaving her mind like a vast, dark void. However, despite being naive about her past, memories keep flashing in her head incase someone provokes her to madness. Harming people would not be enough but it would definitely send them to death! Despite her situation, Wu Xiuxin wanted to go back to school, hoping that it could help her bring back the memories that she lost a year ago. On the other hand, Madam Lu, who took accountability to her, asked for her help in exchange for her benevolence. And that is to look after her son who will become the heir of their company. Later found out that he was involved in any illegal actions that have brought him harm. There were news reports circulating that rich people were the targets of an organization. They roamed around, capturing them to demand ransom or they might end up lifeless. Although Madam Lu had the power to keep him away from danger, it wouldn’t be enough. She believed that Wu Xiuxin could be his hope. By letting Wu Xiuxin befriend him, she hoped to persuade him and make amends with his mother. But the moment they met, she couldn’t believe that the person she was assigned to look after was the person who would cause her hell and somewhat change her life. Yet, after figuring out the people after him, she didn’t hesitate to save him. Those people behind has also had something to do with her situation. How would she be able to stay by his side? Will she succeed in eliminating the people behind all this? Or... Will it trigger her memories from the past and bring them all back? —— Xu Yuan, frightened every student he met. Despite being a troublemaker and having terrible behaviour, Xiu Yan was still able to convince and be loved foolishly by many students on campus. An unfazed and gloomy girl named Wu Xiuxin walked across the hallway without noticing the people gathering around. Her natural eyes were sharp as if it had an intent of causing harm to people that made Xu Yuan feel uncomfortable. Xu Yuan didn’t hesitate to use his foot to block her way, which caused her to fall and made an entire student in the hallway burst in laughter. Wu Xiuxin couldn’t fathom why he did humiliate her. One person lent his hand towards her but she didn’t take it. Instead, she stood with no expression at all and with full strength she raised her clenched fist and directly threw a huge blow on Xiu Yuan’s face. The students who gathered clearly saw the ridiculous scene unfold before their eyes. “Miss Wu, you will be sent to Class 12!” said the principal, after the trouble she did. Xiu Yuan and Wu Xiuxin have finally crossed paths once again. But why does she suspiciously want to be part of his group of friends after what she did? Miss Wu, aren't you straight? ‘Cause you look cool, and the way you move and dress isn’t like what a typical girl would," one of Xiu Yuan’s friends remarked. “Is that so? Thank you but I’m straight.” Wu Xiuxin replied. “Miss Wu, do you uhm…” “What?” “D—Do you like girls?” “It’s up to you to think.” "Miss Wu, you can have friends from the other class, but why do you want to be part of a group of boys?" “Because it’s more fun together with boys.” "Miss Wu, I don't think we need to include you in the boys' group. Before you can be part of us, you still have to pass our initiation." “Really, what is it and when?” "We torture people, and only those who survive our bloody initiation will pass." "Sounds great," she replied, her face showing no expression at all. They all looked at each other, dumbfounded by her response. Wu Xiuxin had simply agreed, knowing it was all part of her plan.
