Nanhua Biejing Residential Area.
Inside a villa.
After rushing around for half a month to attend events, Guan Zixin returned home, having changed into a silk nightgown and put on a face mask. She was about to find a TV series to watch when the doorbell rang.
The surveillance cameras inside the villa were connected to her phone. When she checked the footage from outside the gate, she discovered that it was her cousin who rang the doorbell.
A short while later.
My cousin Guan Zitong skipped and hopped upstairs.
Why are you here so late?
Guan Zixin asked casually.
"I didn't find out you were back in Beijing from my brother, so I came to see you on a special occasion!"
Guan Zitong said with a grin that his brother's name was Guan Bin, who was both Guan Zixin's boss and his cousin.
Guan Zixin pouted: "Tch, I don't believe you're that kind-hearted. So, what do you want me to do for you this time?"
But Guan Zitong didn't answer directly. Instead, she said mysteriously, "Sister Xin, do you know that our Guan family, along with the Wu family, Wang family, Hu family, and Gao family, are going to join forces to do something big tomorrow night!"
"What big thing is going on?"
Guan Zixin suddenly became interested.
Fifteen-year-old Guan Zitong chuckled mischievously, "Hehe, I heard that our five families have joined forces to set up a trap and invite one person to try it out. I also heard that my uncle is going to personally guard the trap!"
Upon hearing this, Guan Zixin was startled, and a memory flashed through her mind. About twelve years ago, the Wang family, together with several other families, set up a challenge to invite people to pass through the gate, and her father was also invited to guard the gate.
At only 9 years old, she begged her father to take her. As a result, during that challenge, she saw her father's extremely fierce side, which left a very deep impression on her.
It was because of that incident that she refused to learn martial arts no matter what.
Today, she has become one of the top actresses in the entertainment industry. Her smooth sailing career is inseparable from the support of the Guan family behind her.
She gradually came to understand that one of the Guan family's assets for survival was martial arts.
Therefore, when Guan Zitong mentioned setting up a game to pass the challenges, she suddenly became very interested.
Do you want to go and watch it?
Guan Zixin looked at Guan Zitong and asked.
Guan Zitong blinked: "As expected, I can't hide it from Sister Xin. You're a big star now. If you ask to go watch the game, I definitely won't refuse you. But you have to take me with you!"
"Okay, I'll give it a try, but I can't guarantee the old man will agree!"
"Thank you, Sister Xin, you're amazing!"
Guan Zixin rolled her eyes at her mischievous little cousin, then picked up her phone and dialed Guan Mingsheng's number: "Grandpa, it's me, Zixin!"
"Oh, it's Zixin. What brings you to call me, Grandpa?"
Guan Zixin: "Grandpa, I heard that our family is going to set up a challenge for people to pass. May I go and watch?"
Guan Mingsheng: "Okay, I'll have Guan Lu pick you up tomorrow and take you there!"
Guan Zixin: "Thank you, sir. May I bring Guan Zitong with me?"
Guan Mingsheng: "That's no problem, but you have to keep an eye on that girl and make sure she doesn't do anything reckless!"
Guan Zixin: "Don't worry, grandpa, I will!"
...
As soon as she hung up the phone, Guan Zitong couldn't help but jump up and down excitedly.
The time came to six o'clock the next morning.
Gao Yan, who got up early, had already completed three hours of online communication, while Xiao Zhu was still fast asleep.
After three hours of practicing the Elixir of Immortality, my physical constitution increased by one point, reaching 115 points.
"Hey, you lazybones, it's past nine o'clock, get up!"
Gao Yan came to the bedside and pinched Xiao Zhuo's nose.
It has to be said that Xiao Zhuo is quite good-looking. Even with her hair down and no makeup, she still looks exceptionally beautiful.
"Ugh, let me sleep a little longer!"
Xiao Zhu slapped Gao Yan's hand away, pulled the blanket over her head to prevent Gao Yan from continuing his mischief and pinching her nose.
"Alright, you can go back to sleep!"
Gao Yan didn't call her again. Anyway, there were no plans for today, so everyone was free to do as they pleased.
I quickly washed up and changed my clothes.
Gao Yan opened the door and went out. Just then, the door next door opened as well, and Cheng Qingqing, looking somewhat listless, came out of the next room.
"You live in this room?"
Cheng Qingqing looked at Gao Yan with some surprise.
"Yes, what a coincidence!" Gao Yan nodded with a smile.
"Do you live alone?" Cheng Qingqing continued to ask.
Gao Yan shook his head: "No, I was with my girlfriend. You look a little tired. Didn't you sleep well last night?"
Upon hearing this, Cheng Qingqing gave him a somewhat resentful look and said irritably, "Isn't it all your and your girlfriend's fault!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Cheng Qingqing turned and walked towards the elevator.
Gao Yan also realized that he had tormented Zhuo Jiangyue for almost three hours last night because of her provocation. He guessed that the hotel walls were not very soundproof and disturbed Cheng Qingqing, who was staying next door.
When Gao Yan arrived at the hotel restaurant.
He then noticed someone waving at him.
Looking up, I saw that Xu Lan, Liu Meiyu and Yang Xuefeng were sitting together having breakfast, while Cheng Qingqing was picking out her breakfast.
"What a coincidence, Gao! We meet again!"
Xu Lan spoke warmly and sincerely.
"It is quite a coincidence."
"You're here for breakfast too, right? Why don't we sit down and eat together?" Xu Lan extended an invitation.
"Okay, I'll go get breakfast first!"
When Gao Yan brought over breakfast, Cheng Qingqing had already chosen and was eating it.
"Sit here, this seat was reserved especially for you!"
Xu Lan pointed to the seat between her and Cheng Qingqing.
