Chapter 153 Willingness, what's meant to come will eventually come.
As Ah Xin spoke, her red lips opened and closed, exuding an exceptionally alluring charm. Gu Mingxia watched her with her arms crossed, her expression indifferent, but her eyes cold.
"I don't think there's any grudge between us. It's quite a pleasure to see you so persistent in wanting to take my life!"
Gu Mingxia kept filtering through the people she knew in her mind, and after confirming that there was no such person as A Xin, she coldly replied to her.
"Can't I do what I want? As long as I, Ah Xin, am willing to do something, what can't I do?"
Ah Xin spoke as if it were the most natural thing in the world, as if taking someone's life was as simple as stepping on an ant.
Gu Mingxia smiled coldly, crossed her arms, and her eyes were filled with a deep chill.
"You underestimate me, Gu Mingxia! Or do you think that if you want my life, I'll just sit here and wait for you to take it?"
Ah Xin chuckled, her laughter full of allure. She took a few steps to Gu Mingxia's side, put her lips close to her ear, and whispered something gentle and seductive.
"Of course you can resist, and I'm very much looking forward to seeing what methods Miss Gu will use to resist!"
Gu Mingxia took a step back, looking at A Xin with a confident expression, as if she were looking at a pitiful wretch.
"I must say, you're incredibly naive! This isn't South Africa, it's China! China is a country with a system of laws. Do you think taking someone's life is such an easy thing?"
When Ah Xin met Gu Mingxia's confident yet pitiful gaze, she suddenly felt an extreme sense of disgust. She hated it when people looked at her like that, as if they were watching a joke or a pathetic wretch.
As soon as this emotion came out, a cold smile appeared on Ah Xin's heavily made-up face, an expression that was quite incongruous with her alluring makeup.
"Then you just wait!"
After saying that, Ah Xin swayed her slender waist and walked towards the car parked under the shade of a tree. Watching her alluring back, Gu Mingxia thought of the face that looked so much like her own, and a thought popped into her head.
"Why, why? If you want my life, you should at least give me an explanation!"
Ah Xin paused, then turned her head with captivating charm, meeting Gu Mingxia's calm eyes.
"You're about to lose your life, and you still want to explain? Gu Mingxia, are you stupid?"
"Even if you die, you should die knowing why, right?"
She always felt that she had an inexplicable connection with the enchanting woman in front of her, especially her face. Could it really only be explained by coincidence?
"There's no reason! If I had to give a reason, it would be that I just don't like the look of you!"
Ah Xin didn't say anything more. She got into the car and sped away. Gu Mingxia squinted at the direction the car disappeared in, and a faint smile unconsciously appeared on her lips.
She really didn't know when she had offended such a woman. She shook her head helplessly. If she wanted her dead, she would have to see if Ah Xin had the ability to take it!
"Young master, are you alright?"
"No...it's nothing! Miss Gu, this person is trying to harm you. Should we call the police? Don't worry, if you call the police, I can testify for you!"
The young security guard had a childlike face with an innocence that Gu Mingxia envied. She smiled, looking at him with heartache in her eyes.
"No need. By the way, you shouldn't be working as a security guard at your age. How about this, I'll send you to school, okay?"
"No...no need, I still need to earn money for my mother's medical treatment! Actually, being a security guard is quite good, there's nothing wrong with being self-reliant!"
The young security guard patted his chest, speaking with a straight face. Gu Mingxia smiled and nodded, but she still felt that children of this age should be enjoying the sunshine and knowledge in university, rather than being confined to such a small guard booth.
"If you encounter any difficulties in the future, you can tell me. I will do my best to help you!"
Not for any other reason than that he is the same age as Adong back then, the same age at which he should enjoy a happy life.
"Thank you, Miss Gu."
The security guard bowed to Gu Mingxia, sincerely thanking her for her kindness in his own way. Gu Mingxia smiled and walked into the villa.
Inside the car, Ah Xin sat in the back seat, looking displeased. Why did Gu Mingxia look at her with that pitiful gaze? Just because she was now the Gu family's heiress? What was so special about that?
But thinking of Gu Mingxia's status as the daughter of the Gu family, A Xin gripped the seat in front of her tightly, her eyes almost blazing with anger.
"My beauty, you look so pale. Did someone upset you?"
Cai Feng reached out and touched her thigh. The physical contact quickly pulled Ah Xin out of her anger. She turned her head to look at the confusion and concern in Cai Feng's eyes and tried to put on a charming smile.
"It's that Gu Mingxia again! I wanted to sneak in and see what the layout of her villa was like, but the security guard at the gate stopped me! Not only did he not let me in, he even called Gu Mingxia out! I was so angry! You have no idea what kind of look Gu Mingxia gave me, it was like she was looking at a joke!"
Ah Xin was half-hanging on Cai Feng, her head pressed against his chest, her fingers constantly tracing circles on his body, her tone carrying a mix of coquettishness and pitifulness.
"Sir, you must support Ah Xin! Ah Xin... Ah Xin has no one else to rely on but you!"
Men are generally unable to resist the coquettishness of beautiful women, especially when that woman is in your arms, coquettishly crying at the same time, which can further arouse a man's protective instincts.
Cai Feng looked at Ah Xin, whose face was covered in tears, with heartache. He cupped her face in his hands, his brows furrowed tightly.
"My little darling, be good! Don't be sad. Don't worry, I will definitely kill Gu Mingxia for you. Besides, don't you still have me? Although I can't compare to Gu Huaikun's status in Xiangcheng, I'm just as rich as him. As long as you're willing to stay by my side, I promise you'll wear gold and silver, eat bird's nest and fish maw every day, and live like a queen!"
Although Ah Xin didn't have a good impression of Cai Feng, she still pretended to be excited when she heard his words.
"Sir, you are so good to Ah Xin! Ah Xin will never leave you in this life, even if you have no money!"
"Alright, alright, you won't look pretty if you keep crying!"
The car arrived at a large villa in the suburbs. Cai Feng put his arm around Ah Xin and got out of the car. As soon as they entered the villa, he picked Ah Xin up by the waist and strode into the bedroom.
"They say love grows over time, so how about Ah Xin comes along and falls in love with me?"
"Sir, you're so naughty! How dare you tease me like that! If you don't satisfy me later, I won't stand for it!"
"Don't worry, they say love grows over time. Sir, I promise you it will definitely grow over time!"
"Bad guy!"
Ah Xin blushed slightly, but in her heart she cursed this old lecher countless times. He was already so old, yet he had no self-control at all. It was one thing for him to be unrestrained, but what was the worst part about him being a quickie? Every time, she had to go out and find a pretty boy to vent her inner passion. If he weren't still somewhat useful, Ah Xin wouldn't be playing this game of "love growing over time" with him!
As night fell, Ah Xin, dressed in a blue knee-length cheongsam, her long hair styled in a bun, wearing silver high-heeled shoes and heavy makeup, made a phone call after leaving the villa. Soon after, a Maserati pulled up beside her. Ah Xin looked around and quickly got into the car.
"Oh, looks like it's good to be with the old man! You've gotten even more radiant these past few days!"
The driver was a young man wearing a hat. He looked at Ah Xin in the rearview mirror and said these words with a slightly sour tone.
"Just focus on driving, I'm not in the mood to talk to you!"
Ah Xin leaned back in her seat and glared at the young man with disdain. Her gaze did not escape the young man's eyes, and he chuckled.
"That's true. How could someone like us, with no money and no power, possibly catch Ah Xin's eye?"
"Stop talking nonsense! I'm annoyed! Drive to the Gu family's villa on the hillside, and call me when we get there!"
Ah Xin coldly uttered those words, then closed her eyes and took a nap. The young man curled his lip and silently cursed, "Bitch!"
The car quickly arrived at the gate of the Gu family villa. The young man turned around and saw Ah Xin's peaceful sleeping face, as calm as a baby's. He was stunned for a moment, and then called out to her.
"Ah Xin, we've arrived!"
Ah Xin opened her eyes, glanced outside, and got out of the car without saying anything. She walked quickly to the front of the villa and, unsurprisingly, was stopped by the gatekeeper.
"Give this to Mr. Gu, and he will naturally let me in!"
Compared to her behavior at the entrance of Xiao Yan's villa in the evening, A Xin was exceptionally polite at this moment. The gatekeeper glanced at her, and although he had doubts, he still accepted the envelope that A Xin gave him.
"Then you can wait here!"
Holding the envelope, she went straight inside. Ah Xin stood outside the door with her arms crossed, looking at the heavily guarded villa. Her eyes were filled with resentment and hatred. Sooner or later, she would live in such a big villa and make all those who once looked down on her knees beg her to look at them!
"The master said you can go in!"
As the gatekeeper spoke, he opened the gate. Ah Xin smiled seductively and thanked him, then swayed her slender waist as she walked in, clutching her handbag. The gatekeeper swallowed hard and cursed under his breath.
"He's obviously no good. He must be offering himself up to the master so late at night! It's good to be rich, even at his age, young and beautiful girls still come to him asking to sleep with him!"
Gu Huaikun sat in the living room, looking at the photo in the envelope. His already pale face grew even paler. He waved to Lin Fu.
"Lin Fu, come and take a look. Do you recognize this person in the photo?"
Lin Fu walked over as instructed, craned his neck to look at the person in the photo, and immediately exclaimed in surprise.
"Master, this isn't...this isn't..."
"Since you say so, then it really is! I wonder who would come to me with this photo in the middle of the night! Sigh, what's coming will come eventually. Call Xiaxia and tell her to be careful lately!"
