Chapter 269 The Mute Boss 19 After this killing, no one dared to easily provoke Gu Hong and Xi Yan anymore.
The forum returned to its former atmosphere, though occasionally someone would still mention the Miss Liu, who had suffered the consequences of her own actions and disappeared from everyone's sight.
Gu Hong used the most thorough method to clear away all filth and obstacles for her.
At this moment, he stood quietly beside Xi Yan, as if he were not the one who had just stirred up a bloody storm.
Gu Hong: "It's alright now."
He had already looked it up online; a man's greatest charm lies in his problem-solving abilities.
Looking at the three words on the screen, and then at the forum and world channel that had been restored to normal, Zi Xi felt a surge of emotion, thinking, "Wow, he's definitely a big shot."
This time, she didn't offer any exaggerated praise.
All the unspoken words are contained in these two simple words: thank you.
The main problem is that besides thanking you, I really don't know how else to praise this big shot.
I'll go online and look up some compliments after I log off.
Now, only that agreed-upon, anticipated yet nerve-wracking meeting remains, slowly drawing near.
The private rooms are themed around the game "A Dream of Jianghu," and are decorated with screens, low tables, and antique-style palace lanterns, all inspired by the game.
There was even a faint scent of sandalwood in the air.
Zi Xi sat on the cushion and looked around.
The door to the private room was gently pushed open.
The person standing at the door was as upright as a pine tree. His perfectly tailored dark bespoke suit accentuated his broad shoulders and narrow waist, giving him a cool and noble air.
His face was impeccably handsome, yet he looked hesitant and indecisive.
Zi Xi instinctively wanted to stand up and greet him: "Ling..."
Before she could finish speaking, Ling Chen gently closed the door behind him, his gaze fixed on her with an extremely complicated expression.
There was a barely perceptible panic, and even a hint of caution.
He approached step by step, his leather shoes making a soft but clear sound on the wooden floor.
Stopping in front of Zi Xi, his tall figure brought a sense of oppression, but his usually cold eyes seemed to ripple with emotion.
His Adam's apple bobbed up and down very noticeably, and his lips parted slightly as if he wanted to say something, but only a faint, almost inaudible breath escaped his lips.
He looked a million times more nervous than she did.
Zi Xi's slight embarrassment was instantly suppressed by immense curiosity and a strange sense of pity.
She blinked, finding it rather amusing to see the seemingly innocent and domineering figure in the game acting so innocent.
Ling Chen seemed anxious, and even fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
"Xi Xi... Hello."
He took a deep breath and, with all his might, finally managed to squeeze out a broken, low, hoarse sound from deep in his throat.
The sound was as soft as a feather brushing past, yet it clearly reached Zi Xi's ears.
"Hello, Mr. Ling!"
Zi Xi stood up abruptly, her eyes wide open, and blurted out.
Ling Chen seemed surprised by her reaction, paused for a moment, and his tense shoulders relaxed slightly.
"Mr. Ling, you're so handsome, you look just like a character model in a game!"
"No, no, no, you're even more handsome than the model! The model doesn't have your charisma!"
"With your striking eyebrows, bright eyes, and high nose bridge, and your skin looking great, what skincare products do you usually use?"
Once Zixi starts praising, she just can't stop.
Her vocabulary was running low, but her mouth was still moving at high speed, and her eyes involuntarily glanced down at his neatly pressed suit.
"And your figure is amazing! You look like a supermodel in that suit."
"Looks pretty thin, but surprisingly well-built... Hey, buddy, do you... do you have abs?"
In a moment of madness, the next sentence just popped out.
As soon as she finished speaking, Zi Xi froze.
