"Your love is filthy, base, shameful, and utterly unworthy of recognition."

"In that case, it's better to never take it out. Keeping it well will actually make people respect you more."

That's all.

Shen Yu reached out and patted Xi Zhixu's shoulder, a cold smile flashing across his lips.

Xi Zhixu felt as if his blood was flowing backwards, his ears were ringing, and he couldn't hear Shen Yu walking away.

After a while, he came to his senses, his face pale, and slumped onto the sofa.

He stared blankly at the air in front of him for a long time without saying a word.

Then, with trembling hands, he pulled out his phone from his pocket and calmed down after sending someone a message saying "Proceed as planned."

A deep sense of unwillingness and desire flashed in his eyes.

"Since my love is filthy, then I'll go all the way down this path to help me truly win him over."

.

It was exactly 10:00 AM.

The sound of the clock hands vibrating above my head grew louder, and through the door, I could faintly hear the commotion of footsteps downstairs.

The guests have already started to enter.

Xi Xingxue looked at her face in the mirror and thought to herself.

The makeup artist behind her was blushing as she packed things up.

"Young Master Xi, the makeup is finished. Miss Zhu hasn't arrived yet. You can sit down for a while."

"good."

Upon hearing the answer, the makeup artist couldn't help but glance at him again.

As he looked up, that stunningly beautiful face once again dazzled his eyes.

He dared not look anymore.

Xi Xingxue was oblivious to how infatuated the others were, and continued to play with the rose pinned to her chest.

Actually, he was thinking about the upcoming plot and waiting for the system to appear.

He was so immersed in his surroundings that he didn't communicate much with the system.

Unless necessary.

At that moment, the system's words finally echoed in my mind.

System: "Master, you must drug Shen Yu and then arrange for him to sleep with Xi Zhixu."

"What?! Go with whom?!"

Xi Xingxue's voice was like a piece of porcelain shattered, breaking into pieces with a crash.

His integrity has also been shattered.

He remembered that the original owner was supposed to drug Shen Yu, but he didn't expect that the targets of the drugging were Shen Yu and Xi Zhixu!

Memories of their time together flashed through his mind, amidst the chaos of war, sparks of light exploding in his head.

"Crunch."

The doorknob was pressed and opened, and Shen Yu, dressed in white shirt and black pants, appeared outside the door.

His gaze lingered on Xi Xingxue's face for a moment, then he smiled and walked over step by step.

The system said, "Host, you don't have much time. You must administer the medicine within one hour."

Xi Xingxue's face fell: "Why are you in such a hurry? It's not like we're going to be reincarnated."

Is it because this engagement party is destined to end in failure? It didn't even get a start.

The system did not respond.

Shen Yu walked up to him.

I picked up the comb from the table and combed his hair, especially the single stray hair that still sticks up on his head, which he seemed to dislike.

The movements were gentle and slow, making the person being treated feel like a cat being stroked.

He reached out and grabbed Shen Yu's fingers: "Okay, the more you comb, the messier it gets."

In the mirror, two faces, equally favored by Nuwa, were so beautiful they seemed to glow.

A young man with the refined beauty of blue and white porcelain, and another young man with a detached and languid expression that exudes a unique gentleness.

The makeup artist, who was about to leave, was reluctant to move.

They're all so good-looking. If they entered the entertainment industry, wouldn't they become incredibly famous?

Shen Yu put down the comb, looking with satisfaction at the stray hair that had finally been pushed down, then stared intently at the two faces so close together in the mirror.

"They're such a perfect match."

He finally uttered a rather outrageous and ambiguous remark that he had been making for the past few days.

Xi Xingxue almost thought he had become so calm that he was no longer fighting or vying for anything.

Now it's crystal clear.

They're definitely preparing a powerful move.

Do you like Zhu Yuan?

Shen Yu then asked a second outrageous question.

Xi Xingxue remained silent, glancing at his quiet eyes through the mirror, and also kept quiet.

But it gave Shen Yu an answer.

He suddenly clamped his chin with his long fingers, a satisfied smile spreading across his lips.

Her fingertips caressed his smooth, white skin.

"That's great, I knew it." I knew you didn't love anyone.

You heartless bastard.

But it doesn't matter, there's plenty of time in the future, and you will become someone I deeply cherish.

He's best at and enjoys training and disciplining people the most.

Xi Xingxue glanced at him sideways and took the opportunity to break free from his fingers.

"We already have a lot of guests, let's go downstairs."

He didn't miss the madness in Shen Yu's eyes.

But what else could he do? He couldn't just pat him on the shoulder and say, "Brother, don't turn evil, don't go crazy and force yourself on me in that dark room."

Therefore, we can only glide by seemingly without any disturbance.

Xi Xingxue went downstairs and quickly started talking to the guests who came in.

Shen Yu followed him at a distance, toying with an unlit cigarette between his fingers.

A magnificent chandelier hung high, casting a warm yellow glow that gently enveloped everyone present.

Amidst the clinking of glasses, the whispers of the guests permeated the air.

"When Shen Yu was first brought back to the Xi family, I thought that the childhood betrothal would not fall to the young master Xi again."

"You know it's a childhood betrothal, but it's just a verbal agreement, so the parties involved have to confirm it themselves."

"Tell me, Shen Yu returned to the Xi family with nothing, and the Xi family doesn't even like him as their biological son. Isn't he a little pitiful?"

"What's there to pity about?" someone in the know leaned over and said.

"The Xi family was in crisis a few days ago, and I heard it was all caused by Shen Yu. It's already a miracle that the Xi family hasn't kicked him out yet, given how much of a cancer he is."

"How is that possible?"

Someone interjected, "It's true, Shen Yu is very capable. I advise you not to talk about him behind his back. Offending him will not end well."

"Tch." The man raised his lip in disdain, about to say something, when he saw a tall, slender figure standing beside him.

A cigarette is held between her fair fingers, played with leisurely.

Having caught his attention, he curled the corners of his lips into a smile, his dark eyes looking over with amusement.

"Go on, what you guys are saying is really funny."

Everyone's expression changed.

"Um... we were just joking, Young Master Shen Yu, please don't be angry."

Although the Xi family is facing a crisis, it is still a large and powerful family business that cannot be compared with ordinary companies.

Moreover, this Shenyu is even more sinister; he can ruin one's own family's business.

Try your best not to offend them.

"I'm angry," he said jokingly.

"Huh?" The person on the other end almost didn't react.

After a while.

Shen Yu left, and he stood there, pale-faced, not knowing what to do.

"Our company is currently developing a new project, and the outcome will determine success or failure. I hope Shen Yu won't be so petty as to try and sabotage us."

A person nearby said, "You said he was petty, he's bound to get it."

"You know, those who offend him are people who like to gossip behind people's backs; their companies either go bankrupt or suffer losses."
