In the dimly lit room, a thrilling escape scene is being played out on the game screen projected on the wall.
The surging waves rose rapidly, and the game character with white light kept jumping upwards as it was chased by the waves.
Gu Xian stared at the projection, pressing the handle with concentration.
Buzz!
The phone beside him suddenly vibrated. Gu Xian's fingers trembled, and the perfectly smooth movement trajectory of the game character suddenly deviated.
The "clicking" sound of the keys became more rapid. Gu Xian held his breath and concentrated, trying hard to remedy the impact of the mistake just now.
However, the phone did not stop ringing after a moment of silence. It started vibrating again, and continued to vibrate, and even the position was obviously shifted.
The continuous vibration seemed to be a death-threatening sound. Gu Xian tried his best to ignore it, and his expression was slightly ferocious, but he still couldn't resist the interference.
The game character fell into the waves and returned to the save point after a few screams.
I wanted to refresh my clearance record, but ended up not being able to complete the whole level.
Gu Xian threw away the game controller, took a breath, and then picked up his phone.
The vibration comes from the persistent voice call request.
Gu Xian chose to reject the call without hesitation, and glanced at the previous message that was the beginning of the vibration.
Mu Ziqiu: Brother Xian!!! Something big has happened! It's urgent!
Gu Xian raised his eyebrows slightly.
Ni Xian Ge: You are the best.
Your brother: Otherwise I will go to your house tonight and kill you.
Mu Ziqiu: [terrified][terrified][terrified]
Ni Xian Ge: If you have to fart, let it out quickly.
Mu Ziqiu: [wipes sweat]
Mu Ziqiu: Xie Yunjing is getting engaged!!!
Ni Xian Ge: That’s it?
Although he and Xie Yunjing had not gotten along since childhood and would always quarrel whenever they met, after all, one was an idle second-generation rich kid and the other was a steady and diligent young elite. After leaving school, the place where they were forced to compete on the same stage, they were destined to go their separate ways, and the distance between them grew farther and farther until they had no connection anymore.
In the past few years, he and Xie Yunjing had almost no encounters, let alone fights.
It's not like I stole his wife, so whether Xie Yunjing gets married or not is of no concern at all.
The game he played was quite difficult, and breaking the record was even more difficult, so every opportunity was rare.
Ni Xian Ge: It’s none of my business.
Ni Xian Ge: Wash your neck and wait.
Mu Ziqiu: No no no no no! Listen to my explanation!!!
Mu Ziqiu: I have a friend who wants to ask you for help!
Ni Xian Ge: [Is this friend you are talking about yourself?]
Ni Xian Ge: The person who is engaged to Xie Yunjing is your secret crush?
Mu Ziqiu: It's really someone else's business! As for Zhang Hejie, the one engaged to Xie Yunjing is his girlfriend Tao Ranran!
Ni Xian Ge: Zhang Hejie? The lapdog who kowtows to Xie Yunjing and turns his nose up at me? So you're friends with him, Li Yuqiu?
Mu Ziqiu: [sweat][sweat][sweat]
Mu Ziqiu: Mainly because my family and his have a lot of business dealings, so it's inevitable that there will be some overlap... But don't worry, Brother Xian! My loyalty to you is witnessed by the sun, the moon, and the heavens and the earth. I will always be your most adorable little Qiuqiu!
Ni Xian Ge: [vomits] Stop disgusting me.
Gu Xianyi is feeling bored.
Ni Xian Ge: So what? He asked me to help him snatch someone? Why doesn't he go himself?
Mu Ziqiu: He and Tao Ranran have fought several times, but each time they failed. Tao Ranran was even imprisoned by the Tao family, and we can't contact her at all. Besides, among our generation, no one except you, Brother Xian, can confront Xie Yunjing head-on...
A hint of interest finally appeared on Gu Xian's face, which was filled with impatience and irritability, and he snorted.
You Xian Ge: [smile]
Mu Ziqiu: Brother Xian, this matter will definitely not be done in vain. Zhang Hejie said that if the matter can be accomplished, he will give you three million. This is all he can afford.
Zhang Hejie is certainly a second-generation rich man, but his family's money is his family's money. It's impossible for Zhang Hejie to casually take out a seven or eight-digit sum to cause trouble. In terms of private property, the three million he can come up with is already quite impressive.
Ni Xian Ge: Who cares about this stinky money.
Mu Ziqiu: Ah... Brother, do you mean to help or not?
Gu Xian crossed his legs and typed while shaking his feet.
Ni Xian Ge: Tell Zhang Hejie that I want to invest in the project in the west of the city. If we can negotiate, add me as a friend. If not, then forget it.
Mu Ziqiu:!!!
Gu Xian soon received a friend request from Zhang Hejie.
The engagement party is tonight, no wonder Zhang Hejie came to him in desperation.
Li Yuqiu suddenly sent another message.
Mu Ziqiu: Brother, have you and Zhang Hejie agreed? If so, could you take me on the Chengxi project?
Zhang Hejie was really in a hurry, so Gu Xian didn't waste any time negotiating the terms with him.
Ni Xian Ge: What’s the matter? Your good friends didn’t share any meat with you?
Mu Ziqiu: A bunch of old men are fighting for the project in the west of the city, so it’s not my turn. Moreover, although the Zhang family is in charge of this project, Zhang Hejie has no say in it.
Ni Xian Ge: Can I make the decision?
Mu Ziqiu: Isn’t that different from others, Brother Xian?
Mu Ziqiu: [Giving Big Brother a Shoulder Massage.gif]
Ni Xian Ge: Okay, pack up and get on the road.
Mu Ziqiu: What are you doing?
Gu Xian stood up and smoothed out the hair that was tied up with his bangs.
Your brother Xian: Come and greet me.
Daishan Villa is where the Xie family entertains guests.
The engagement party of the heir of the Xie family made the usually quiet courtyard more bustling, and the trees in the courtyard became bright and colorful because of the star-like colored lights hung on them.
Guests dressed in luxurious attire streamed through the gate and headed towards the banquet hall, guided by waiters and lights.
Gu Xian changed into a suit. He was obviously there to cause trouble, but he mingled among the guests with impunity. His superior height and long legs attracted the attention of many women.
Li Yuqiu and Zhang Hejie followed in fear, fearing that a group of security guards would suddenly surround them and beat them out of the courtyard with sticks.
Gu Xian swaggered into the hall, picked up a glass of wine carefully, and finally retreated to the corner quietly.
He sipped his wine intermittently, his dark eyes reflecting the splendor of the hall, and he looked so relaxed and contented as if he were really a guest who came to offer his blessings.
Li Yuqiu was still able to follow suit, but Zhang Hejie didn't care about savoring the red wine. He gulped down two mouthfuls and couldn't help but urge: "Gu Xian, shouldn't we go find Ranran quickly!"
Gu Xian glanced at him casually: "Do you know where Tao Ranran is?"
Zhang Hejie's face stiffened slightly. "That's why we have to hurry up and act. There are people from the Xie family everywhere here. If we wait until Ranran comes out before we act, there's no way we'll succeed!"
"This villa, not counting the basement, has five floors, with at least twenty rooms on each floor. If you're not afraid of missing Tao Ranran, or being kicked out by someone for being suspicious..." Gu Xian smiled, "Then go quickly."
The nonchalant tone immediately triggered Zhang Hejie's uneasiness and suspicion.
"Gu Xian! Are you kidding me?"
Gu Xian looked away unmoved. Zhang Hejie restrained himself again and said with a suppressed voice, "I know I was wrong before and I shouldn't have said that to you, but this time I really beg you to help me. You know this villa so well, you must know where they placed Ranran. Please take me..."
"Shhh."
"Shh—" Gu Xian interrupted Zhang Hejie, putting his finger on his lips, "others will hear it."
He hadn't controlled his voice just now, and some people around were indeed looking in their direction. Zhang Hejie lowered his voice: "Gu Xian..."
"Don't be impatient." Gu Xian interrupted him again, shaking the wine glass in his hand, "There are too few people here now, let's wait a little longer."
Li Yuqiu pulled Zhang Hejie and gave him a wink, and the latter resisted the urge to ask further questions.
More and more people came into the hall, and the waiters came and went, becoming increasingly busy serving the guests.
Whether he was searching around like a headless fly or following Gu Xian, who was familiar with the other courtyards, Zhang Hejie knew exactly which one to choose. However, as he saw fewer and fewer guests coming in, he gradually couldn't suppress his anxiety.
"Gu Xian, you..."
Having to ask for help from a second-generation rich kid he had always looked down upon was humiliating enough, and Gu Xian's perfunctory attitude had already infuriated Zhang Hejie. But for the sake of his beloved girl, he could only suppress his anger and inquire in a restrained tone, "How do you know so much about the other courtyard?"
Gu Xian observed the situation in the hall with a faint smile on his face. Upon hearing this, the smile on his face became a little playful: "We played hide-and-seek a few times."
"Hide and seek?" He originally wanted to get information, so that he could take action on his own. However, Gu Xian's answer made Zhang Hejie a little confused.
"Let's go." Gu Xian suddenly put down his wine glass, took a few steps, and looked back at Zhang Hejie, "What are you dawdling for?"
Who is dawdling?
Zhang Hejie gritted his teeth in anger, but since he had to ask for help, he could only put down his wine glass and follow.
The third floor and above of the villa are guest rooms and private areas for the Xie family.
The two newlyweds who were about to get engaged were getting ready upstairs. To prevent any strangers from disturbing them, the Xie family arranged for waiters to guard the stairs and elevators on the second floor. Only relatives and friends with permission were allowed to go upstairs.
After going up to the second floor, Gu Xian took the person directly to a secluded terrace.
Zhang Hejie looked blankly at the terrace shaded by tall trees. "Gu Xian, why did you bring me here?"
Gu Xian ignored him and responded with his actions.
He swiftly climbed over the terrace fence and stepped onto the thick tree trunk.
Zhang Hejie's expression turned into complete astonishment when he saw Gu Xian leaping from the high tree trunk to the terrace on the third floor without hesitation.
Gu Xian leaned out from the third-floor terrace and waved his hand halfheartedly: "What are you standing there for? Come up quickly."
Li Yuqiu was not as surprised as Zhang Hejie, but he also took a moment to come back to his senses. He glanced at the dazed Zhang Hejie and said kindly, "Hejie, go up first. I'll watch over you from below."
"No..." Zhang Hejie shouted in a low voice, a little overwhelmed, "You've already gone up, can't you pull us up with you?"
The tree trunk you could step on from the second floor and the one you could jump from to the third floor were not the same trunk. The tree trunk you could jump from was still some distance away from the third-floor terrace. The villa in Daishan Villa was over four meters high, so falling from it was no joke.
"I can't pull it." Gu Xian bent down, his smiling face illuminated by the light from the side, looking as eerie as a devil who loves to play tricks on people. "Or are you scared? You're not even worse than an eight-year-old child, are you?"
Zhang Hejie couldn't understand what this had to do with the eight-year-old child.
"Alas, you're so timid, no wonder your girlfriend ran away..."
Gu Xian sighed leisurely, Zhang Hejie gritted his teeth, and finally followed Gu Xian's example and jumped to the third-floor terrace.
With jumping off the terrace as a prelude, the fact that Gu Xian took out a hairpin and quickly opened the locked door on the terrace no longer seemed so surprising.
After entering the corridor, Zhang Hejie soon had no time to pay attention to Gu Xian's actions.
Gu Xian grabbed Zhang Hejie, who was trying to quicken his pace, and asked, "Where are you going?"
Zhang Hejie said anxiously: "Didn't you hear! The person who just passed by wanted to give Ranran some jewelry. If you follow her, you can find Ranran!"
Gu Xian tutted his words, "What will happen after you find Tao Ranran? You elope, get caught, and then try to rob her again? Zhang Hejie, how many three million do you have to squander?"
He scoffed and let her go. "Besides, the Xie family dared to hold an engagement party, so they must have already convinced Tao Ranran. Can you guarantee that after you find Tao Ran, she will be willing to go with you?"
Zhang Hejie's expression was blank for a moment, and he moved his lips: "I..."
Gu Xian patted his shoulder and said earnestly, "Young man, do you understand how to solve the problem from the source?"
Zhang Hejie's eyes lit up with hope: "So..."
Gu Xian curled his lips: "So, let's go find Xie Yunjing."
The author has something to say: Xiao Gu and Xiao Xie: You can lose your life, but you can’t lose the game. Hardcore hide-and-seek.

——Please collect the next book in advance, please, this is really important to me! ——
What should I do if I become a cotton doll in the home of my number one hater?
The noble and elegant young master of the He family is a fake, and the real one is actually the 18th-tier star Lu Duan who is surrounded by scandals.
Lu Duan has a bad temper, low education, and has offended Su Zezhi, the only heir of the Su family, causing Su Zezhi to become his number one anti-fan.
Su Zezhi, CEO of Su Rui Group, the only heir to the wealthy Su family, the most sought-after bachelor in City A, and a big shot that the He family is trying their best to get in touch with.
The He couple, who have always looked down on actors in the entertainment industry, said: They believe that feelings are more important than blood ties.
The couple threw a check to Lu Duan and left. Lu Duan was still a little star, and the fake was still Young Master He.
However, one day, a variety show in which Su Zezhi participated was broadcast live. Not to mention the fans and haters in the entertainment industry, even the ordinary spectators were shocked.
"Sisters! Mr. Su is participating in a live variety show, and his room is full of Lu Duan merchandise!"
"Seriously, how is this possible! When it comes to Lu Duan's haters, President Su is number one, and no one dares to be second!"
"Can some celebrity fans stop dreaming about grandeur? Is President Su really something your 18th-tier, clueless person can even reach?"
"Help! Why are there even stupid postcards of Duanduan when she first debuted?"
"Fuck, why are all those limited edition ten Duanduan cotton dolls at Su Ze's house? No wonder I couldn't get one!"
"?"
“???”
"Am I blind or am I blind? Wasn't it Lu Duan who was in the camera just now? What was he wearing? Pajamas?"
"Family, the case is solved, they are together!"
Lu Duan has a good face, good singing and good acting skills, but because of his bad temper and unwillingness to please anyone, no matter how well he performs, he can only be ranked on the 18th line.
One day, Lu Duan woke up and found himself turned into a cotton doll only 20 cm tall.
Cotton Doll·Lu Duan looked at the people around him in the room, as well as the owner of the room·Lu Duan's number one anti-fan Su Zezhi who was walking towards him wrapped in only a bath towel, and cried out in despair in his heart——
