The female lead is powerful, ruthless, and stunningly beautiful—she stops at nothing to get what she wants. Sheng Wu, the Ghost King sealed beneath the Abyss of Ten-Thousand Ghosts, is cruel and ...
Sheng Wu sat on the sofa and watched TV.
The pair of pink bunny slippers on her feet seemed out of place with the surrounding houses decorated in cool black and white tones.
She sat quietly, waiting for Jimo Li to be busy in the kitchen alone.
After Jimo Li prepared the meal and brought it out, she stood up and took the plate from his hand.
"I eat light food. Take a look at these dishes and see if they are okay. If not, I'll make a few more."
Sheng Wu smiled lightly, "It's okay, it's fine."
The two sat down to eat.
While eating, Jimo Li, who always adhered to the principle of not talking while eating, lowered his eyes, swallowed the food, and spoke in a low and cold voice.
"Miss Sheng, have you heard about the recent missing person case at University A? An adult male is missing."
"Um?"
Sheng Wu drank a sip of freshly squeezed mango juice, then raised her eyes, her light-colored pupils innocent and dazed.
He nodded slowly and said seriously, "I know a little bit. I heard some people discussing it when I went to school today. So, is the case file that Mr. Jimo Li took away from the police station about this matter?"
Jimo Li slowly raised his cold and reserved eyes, stared at her, and pursed his thin lips.
Instead of answering, he asked, "When Miss Sheng got off the bus that day, it seemed that she would pass by that area on her way home. Did you see any clues?"
"Why, Mr. Jimo, do you think this matter has anything to do with me?"
Hearing this, Sheng Wu put down her water cup and chopsticks and ate until she was 70% full.
She first picked up the handkerchief and wiped her red lips gracefully, then raised her eyes and looked at Jimo Li lazily, her light-colored pupils were filled with a coldness that was swirling with a faint light.
Jimo Li moved his eyes noncommittally but said nothing.
I can't see his attitude clearly.
Sheng Wu's lips curled up, "What if, if I say...I was the one who kidnapped that person, Mr. Jimo, will you call the police to arrest me?"
With her dark eyebrows raised, her arrogant and perverse attitude gave people a sense of weirdness.
Jimo Li looked at her intently. He also put down his chopsticks and stared at her with cold and dark eyes.
Three seconds later.
"I won't do anything without evidence."
The implication is that if he has evidence, he will arrest her.
Hearing this, Sheng Wu suddenly chuckled and tilted her head slightly.
"Mr. Jimo, you really can't stand being teased." There was a hint of charm in the corners of her eyes.
Then she slightly restrained her smile, her eyes cold, "I'm just a female college student who can only dance. He's a grown man, how can I do anything to him? Even if I really meet him, I'm afraid I should be the one in danger."
Jimo Li, who was sitting opposite, listened to these words with a frown on his face, as if he was considering the credibility of this matter, but soon.
He curled his lips, tilted his jaw, and smiled very faintly.
"Similarly, Miss Saint is not easily amused."
Obviously, he was saying this and he was joking just now.
It's just a small effort to achieve a great result.
Seeing this, Sheng Wu smiled meaningfully and said nothing more.
After the two of them finished their meal, Jimo left the kitchen to clean up the dishes.
He took out a gift box from the drawer in the living room.
His eyes were cold, and no emotion could be seen. "This is for you. If you're bored, you can try it."
He took the gift box and handed it to Sheng Wu.
Because he was standing and Sheng Wu was sitting on the sofa, she could see with a casual glance that there were slight marks on the man's thighs on his neatly ironed trousers.
Is wearing a shirt clip.
Sheng Wu's eyes paused slightly, then she curled her lips and looked up at Jimo Li. She took the gift box from his hand, opened it, and saw a pile of exquisitely customized candies.
"Mr. Jimo, do you like candy?"
She remembered the brand on the candy wrapper, and it was quite expensive.
Jimo Li withdrew his hand. He looked down at the gift box, not looking directly at Sheng Wu, and cleared his throat.
"Fortunately, this candy was given to you by someone else. I'll give it all to you."
Hearing this, Sheng Wu raised her eyes and looked directly at Jimo Li, but found that the tip of his ear was a little red, and his fingertips were twisting it habitually.
Her eyes suddenly understood a little, but her tone was surprised.
"From a girl?"
"No, it was given as a gift when I bought something." Jimo Li took a slight breath and explained in a slightly faster tone.
Of course, his face still had the aloof and cold look of a noble lady. If it weren't for the tips of his ears turning slightly red, people would probably think he was just being perfunctory.
What kind of store would give away candies worth tens of thousands of dollars when you buy something?
"so."
Sheng Wu's eyes moved slightly, but her face pretended to be lost and aggrieved.
"Am I only worthy of the gifts..." Tsk, what a contradiction.
Pure and yet...
Almost instantly.
"no!"
Jimo Li spoke immediately, his face a little nervous. After hesitating for two seconds, he finally confessed.
“Yes, I bought this…”
"I remember you like sweet things. Last time I rashly terminated the contract, it was my fault, so this is my apology."
His light ink-colored phoenix eyes were fixed on Sheng Wu, his breathing was light and he was a little nervous.
"So that's how it is."
Hearing this, Sheng Wu, who had teased him for a while, did not ask him why he lied just now. She lowered her head, picked up the candy in her hand, peeled off the candy wrapper, and then leaned forward slightly.
The white and pink fingertips brought the round candy to Jimo Li's mouth.
"But, Mr. Jimo, your apology doesn't seem enough."
