The bodyguards’ jaws dropped.
Oh, my god!
Oh, my heavens!
What did they just see?
CEO Fu had been bitten, bitten by a woman!
He Ting, Fu Jingyao’s best frenemy, froze for 0.1 seconds, then quickly pulled out his phone, opened the camera, and snapped dozens of photos.
This once-in-a-millennium moment had to be recorded and then flaunted on his Moments.
He Ting took photos from several angles, even thoughtfully adding a beautiful filter.
Hmm, this one is good; it shows half of Fu Jingyao’s face and Lin Xi’s back.
From the side, the woman is kissing the man’s chin.
The man’s expression changes from disbelief to ecstatic joy, his eyes showing three parts of indulgence, three parts surprise, and four parts nonchalance.
He Ting thought smugly.
Once this photo is posted, the Di Jing high society will be in an uproar, and his phone will probably explode.
Before Fu Jingyao reacts, let’s take a few more pictures.
At this moment, Fu Jingyao’s pupils dilated; he couldn’t believe what was happening.
He had never been bitten before!
No! He had never been bitten before!
Not even by a mosquito!
But today, he was bitten by a woman!!!
“You—”
Fu Jingyao was so angry he couldn’t speak. He was about to push the woman away.
Lin Xi voluntarily let go and stepped back.
The air suddenly fell silent; the abrupt clicking sound of the camera was exceptionally loud.
Fu Jingyao looked over coldly and found He Ting taking pictures with a mischievous grin.
Fu Jingyao’s face turned ashen, “He Ting! Delete them!!”
He Ting met a cold gaze, but without hesitation, he grabbed his phone, turned, and ran.
Damn! Too excited, forgot to turn on silent mode.
Unfortunately, it was too late; a nearby bodyguard tackled him to the ground.
He Ting looked at the enraged Fu Jingyao and swallowed nervously, “Let me…uh…no, let me explain…”
Fu Jingyao snatched his phone and ordered all the bodyguards, “Hold him down, don’t let him run!”
Countless eyes stared at him, and He Ting’s heart leaped.
Damn! Busted.
He’s doomed, really doomed this time.
He Ting used his old trick, changing the subject.
“No good, that woman ran away!”
Fu Jingyao looked back.
Lin Xi was gone, having slipped away unnoticed.
Fu Jingyao pressed on the bite mark on his neck, a nameless fire rising in his heart, “Find her! Even if I have to search the entire Di Jing, I will find her!!”
He Ting cursed inwardly.
Insidious, so insidious.
A scumbag woman, biting and running away.
Leaving him alone to bear Fu Jingyao’s wrath.
He Ting struggled furiously, but couldn’t break free from the bodyguards’ grip.
He decided to give up.
Fu Jingyao glanced at him, lifted He Ting’s finger to unlock his phone, and opened the photo album.
He Ting felt utterly hopeless, “Grandpa, come quickly to the Fu family to save your grandson…”
Before he could finish, Fu Jingyao felt a dizzy spell, closed his eyes, and collapsed, fainting.
The bodyguards quickly caught him.
“CEO Fu, CEO Fu!!”
“No good, CEO Fu fainted!”
“Quickly call Dr. Shen!”
The bodyguards sent Fu Jingyao to the hospital and casually threw He Ting, bound hand and foot, into a small dark room next door.
He Ting: “Mmmmm…”
Let me out.
…
Fu Jingyao lay in his hospital bed.
In his dream, he was in a palace, with a woman standing in the center.
A faint halo emanated from the woman in white, her face veiled.
Fu Jingyao couldn’t see her face clearly, but he felt he had seen her before.
“Who are you?”
He had this dream many times.
Every time he asked “who are you?”, he would wake up.
But this time was different. The woman in white raised her delicate hand, her voice soft as water, “Ayao, come quickly, the sacrificial ceremony is about to begin.”
Fu Jingyao uncontrollably reached out. As his hand neared the woman in white, she suddenly disappeared, her body becoming transparent.
Fu Jingyao panicked, desperately trying to grab the woman in white, but his hand passed right through her.
The woman in white gradually dissipated, “Ayao, goodbye.”
“No——!”
Fu Jingyao woke up abruptly, his forehead covered in cold sweat.
His heart felt empty, as if he had lost something.
“Jingyao, you’re finally awake, you scared me to death.”
Fu Xin Ya wiped away tears from the corner of her eyes and softly asked, “Jingyao, how are you feeling now?”
A group of people surrounded him. Fu Jingyao rubbed his temples, “Aunt, I’m fine.”
Hearing his words, Fu Xin Ya’s anxiety finally subsided.
She looked at Dr. Shen beside her, “Qingci, check Jingyao again.”
Shen Qingci held a stethoscope, “Headache again?”
Fu Jingyao softly hummed, “Old problem.”
“Aunt, I’m really fine. How is Ji Heng?”
Mentioning her son, Fu Xin Ya sighed, “Still the same. He suddenly fainted three days ago and hasn’t woken up until now.”
“The doctors say there’s nothing wrong with his body; he looks like he’s asleep, but who sleeps for three days and nights?”
Fu Jingyao pressed his temples, “Aunt, I’ve already sent someone to invite the most authoritative neurologist; he’ll arrive tomorrow morning.”
Fu Xin Ya lowered her eyes, “Jingyao, thank you. Take care of yourself first. Ji Heng is with me and Xiao Zheng.”
Fu Xin Ya’s asthma attack flared up.
Ji Zheng quickly supported her mother and said to Fu Jingyao, “I’ll take Mom first. Ji Heng is with me. You should rest well.”
After they left, Fu Jingyao got up from the bed, “Where’s He Ting?”
The bodyguard answered truthfully, “Locked up next door. Should we let him out?”
“No, let him stay.”
Fu Jingyao straightened his clothes and prepared to leave.
“Shen Qingci, don’t worry about me, go look after Aunt and the others.”
Shen Qingci saw the bite mark on his neck and desperately wanted to ask what happened.
Catching Fu Jingyao’s unfriendly gaze, he silently swallowed the question.
Shen Qingci said, “Okay.”
Fu Jingyao left the hospital and went directly to see his grandfather.
Too much had happened tonight: the woman who claimed to be his fiancée, and the woman in white from his dream. Who were they?
…
1 AM, a certain street.
Lin Xi covered her face and screamed, “Aaaaaah!!!”
Coming to her senses, she finally realized what stupid thing she had done.
She had actually bitten someone!
The moment she bit Fu Jingyao’s neck, a tremendous change occurred within Lin Xi.
Her life force re-congealed, and the death energy dissipated.
She had successfully survived the ordeal.
However, thinking of biting someone, and Fu Jingyao’s terrifying expression, Lin Xi felt extremely embarrassed.
Fortunately, she was clever enough to run away after biting him; otherwise…
Lin Xi shook her head, “I didn’t bite a person, I bit a roasted pig’s trotter. It’s all the trotter’s fault; it was too fragrant, constantly tempting me…”
She frantically brainwashed herself, trying to forget the scene.
“Grrrrrr——”
Speaking of roasted pig’s trotters, Lin Xi’s stomach grumbled. She took out three old copper coins to calculate her fortune.
After biting Fu Jingyao, she had absorbed quite a bit of his purple qi.
Purple qi meant a windfall.
Her seven days of life off the mountain had taught Lin Xi a lesson: money was essential.
She tossed the coins.
Li above, Qian below, Huo Tian Da You Gua (Fire Heaven Great Abundance Hexagram).
The upper hexagram is Li Fire, the lower hexagram is Qian Heaven, a symbol of brilliance.
This is a very auspicious hexagram!
Lin Xi was about to get rich.
Make a fortune!
