The World Federation of Literary and Art Circles covers a wide range of content and categories, including common categories such as music, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, wine, and tea, as well as more unique categories such as micro-carving art and ancient perfumery.
The selection competition organized by the World Literature Association attracts a huge number of participants every year, but only a very small number pass the assessment.
The rigorous application process alone is enough to make many people feel exhausted. When submitting their application to the World Federation of Literary and Art Circles, they also need to attach a copy of their artwork.
If your work is approved, the organizers will invite you to participate in the preliminary round. If you pass the preliminary round, you will be invited to participate in the semi-final round.
Those who pass the semi-finals become internal associate members of the World Literature Association, and automatically become full members after five years.
In addition, another special condition for becoming a member is that within two years of becoming a probationary member, one must create outstanding works of art or achieve great success in their area of expertise to be granted full membership.
He then logged out of the account on that special page, switched lines, hacked Gong Xiangru's computer and phone, switched the IP addresses he had recently contacted, and typed on the keyboard at lightning speed.
Y?
Gong Ning stared at the letter on the screen, her gaze lingering slightly. Just as she was about to check its exact location, she suddenly heard soft footsteps outside in the corridor.
Gong Ning abruptly shut down her laptop and put it in the bookshelf next to her.
She turned around and quickly walked over to the man in the T-shirt who she had knocked unconscious. She quickly pressed a few acupoints on his body, and at the same moment he slowly regained consciousness, she kicked over the cabinet next to her and then quietly opened the door a crack.
She immediately sat down on the ground, grabbed a water glass she had grabbed, and smashed it on the floor, screaming in panic—
The footsteps in the corridor paused, then quickly retreated.
Because of Gong Ning's scream, Yuexi Garden was silent for a few moments before suddenly bursting into bright light.
Lu Weixi and Gong Xiaojing were still too excited to sleep when, despite the excellent soundproofing, they faintly heard a scream.
The two exchanged a glance, then quickly opened the door to look. When they heard a familiar voice coming from upstairs, their expressions changed drastically, and they hurriedly went upstairs.
Pushing open the door and turning on the light, I saw Gong Ning waving the bedside lamp wildly in the air, her face pale with fright.
The man in the black T-shirt next to her got up to run away the moment Gong Ning screamed, but was blocked in the room by Gong Qiaoyu, who rushed back at the first moment.
Gong Xiaojing strode over to Gong Ning's side, seized the opportunity to snatch the lamp from her hand, hugged her in his arms, and comforted her gently, "It's okay, it's okay, A-Yun, don't be afraid, your dad and mom are here."
Gong Ning buried her face in his chest, not saying a word, her shoulders trembling slightly, looking quite frightened.
Seeing Gong Ning like this, Gong Xiaojing and Lu Weixi felt a pang of heartache, and their expressions turned grim.
After scanning the bedroom, Gong Xiaojing carried Gong Ning to the bedroom next door.
Gong Qiaoyu simply dragged the man in the black T-shirt into the corridor and threw several heavy punches at him, a hint of dark madness in his eyes.
Seeing that the man was barely breathing after being beaten, Ji Qingmeng quickly stopped him, saying, "Stop hitting him. First, find out how this person managed to evade the Moonlit Garden security system."
Gong Qiaoyu paused, a few crimson glints appearing in his eyes. He turned and slammed his fist heavily against the wall, leaving a bright red bloodstain.
The commotion was quite significant. Nan Wei rushed over with his men and was taken aback when he saw Gong Qiaoyu's dark expression. "Young Master, are you alright?"
Gong Qiaoyu didn't say anything, but waved his hand to signal him to go back.
Nan Wei's worry was obvious, but seeing Gong Qiaoyu's displeasure, he moved his lips but didn't ask anything more. He turned around and led his men back.
After an unknown amount of time, Gong Xiaojing and Lu Weixi came out of the room. Gong Qiaoyu looked up at them, his face unusually serious. "How is A-Yun?"
"He was quite frightened and has already fallen asleep." After saying this, Gong Xiaojing's face darkened, and he said to Gong Qiaoyu, "Come to the study with me!"
“Okay!” Gong Qiaoyu hurried after him.
Gong Xiaojing sat on the sofa in the study, rubbing his temples. "Who was here just now?"
"It was Uncle Nanwei. I didn't say anything to him and just sent him back."
Gong Xiaojing nodded, pondered for a few moments, and said, "Qiao Yu, you investigate this matter personally, and don't tell anyone."
Anyone who can sneak into Moonlight Garden silently must be incredibly strong, but Gong Qiaoyu just tested the skills of the man in the black T-shirt, and it's clear he doesn't possess that kind of strength.
unless……
"That person wasn't particularly skilled, and yet they managed to avoid triggering the security system, unless... they were an insider?" Realizing this, Gong Qiaoyu paused, one hand in his pocket, leaning against the wardrobe, pondering for a moment. "Someone wants to harm A-Yun. Why?"
“We can’t rule out that possibility,” Gong Xiaojing’s eyes darkened slightly as he tapped the armrest of the sofa with his fingers. His tone carried a hint of murderous intent. “Send some people to protect A-Yun recently and make sure nothing happens to her. Send someone to check the bedroom A-Yun stayed in tomorrow. I suspect someone tampered with it.”
They will not allow the tragedy caused by internal rebellion thirteen years ago to happen again.
"Um."
The father and son were analyzing the matter in the study, and Lu Weixi, still worried, went to check on Gong Ning again, taking a dry towel and gently wiping her pale face.
Not long after wiping, fine beads of sweat appeared again on her fair forehead, which felt cool to the touch.
She was sweating profusely.
A few pities and heartache flashed in Lu Weixi's eyes. She then went to the washroom, wet a towel with hot water, and gently wiped Gong Ning's face.
After being wiped with a warm towel, her originally pale and delicate face flushed with a few gentle blushes, and under the dim light of the wall lamp, she exuded a touch of adorable liveliness and vitality.
Lu Weixi's gaze remained fixed on her face, as if he couldn't get enough of looking at her, his eyes overflowing with affection and tenderness.
Seeing that Gong Ning was frowning and shaking her head uneasily, she seemed to be sleeping very restlessly.
Lu Weixi hesitated for a few seconds. Seeing that she showed no signs of waking up, she placed her hand on her back through the blanket and gently patted her back, like she was coaxing a child to sleep.
"Ah Yun, sleep well, Mommy's here. This time, Mommy will protect you, my little baby. Thank you for coming back, Mommy thanks you for giving me a chance to make it up to you..."
Her voice was soft and soothing, lingering in my ears like a warm spring breeze. Stroking Gong Ning, who was pretending to be asleep, I felt sleepy, my eyelids grew heavier and heavier, and I eventually fell asleep without realizing it.
Gong Xiangru, standing at the door, took in Lu Weixi's soft, coaxing voice through the slightly open door, his eyes turning cold and sinister.
