Tyrannical Tycoon Haunts Me Relentlessly-Chapter 442: You Are Destined to Be Mine 22

This weekend, due to a promotional event for the Alchemy Competition that Xia Yinian had just signed up for, she was unexpectedly dragged out the door.

"I only signed up, the preliminaries haven’t even started yet."

Xia Yinian, watching Gu Lingqian packing her things, was puzzled: "Why am I involved too?"

"Every year, our Gu Family sponsors the competition significantly, can’t I pull some strings for my own girlfriend?"

Gu Lingqian picked up the small backpack, turned back, and said to her: "Let’s go, your Master is also willing to let you go and see for yourself."

"Master?" She didn’t know about this.

"Just met him yesterday by chance. Didn’t he send you a message to let you participate?"

Xia Yinian, stunned by his words, suddenly remembered a serious problem: "I don’t have my Master’s number."

Gu Lingqian looked at her delicate face and suddenly felt that this girl was so adorably clueless.

"Mu Feng isn’t that adept in dealing with girls. You’ll have to take more initiative in the future."

"Got it, but can you give me his number first?"

Xia Yinian realized that to interact with the Master, she needed to be proactive, enthusiastic, and spirited!

Otherwise, how could she slowly extract all the knowledge from him, piece by piece? Heh!

"Let’s go."

...They boarded the cruise ship, and Xia Yinian felt a bit sentimental—rich people really do have it good.

It was just a trip to a small island, to film some external scenes in the Medicinal Field for the competition’s promotion.

In fact, a speedboat might have taken just two or three hours, but a cruise ship, especially those slow-moving kinds, when would they get there?

"Everyone will go swimming later, do you want to come and have fun?"

"Isn’t it supposed to be a visit to the Medicinal Field?" Xia Yinian was surprised.

"Can’t we relax after work? It’s already dusk, do you really want to go to the Medicinal Field in the dark?"

Today is only Friday, the official shooting is tomorrow’s affair, today, is just about letting everybody out to have fun.

Xia Yinian nodded, that made sense.

"I want to go down to have fun too." But right after Xia Yinian finished speaking, suddenly, her whole body stiffened.

Gu Lingqian noticed her discomfort immediately, following her gaze towards the entrance of the cruise ship’s hall, and when that figure entered his view, he was also surprised.

"I didn’t know he would come..." He felt a bit sorry for not having checked beforehand, causing Xia Yinian to be frightened.

In fact, even if Xia Yinian tried to remain calm, Gu Lingqian knew she would subconsciously be fearful and uneasy in the presence of Uncle.

"I’m fine, just a bit surprised." Xia Yinian didn’t want to always be scared each time she encountered Gu Beicheng, that Demon.

She had been trying hard to ignore the fear Gu Beicheng brought to her.

Just thinking about that night’s scenes, thinking about how she fainted from pain, and the Demon still ruthlessly plundered her despite her suffering, her heart would subconsciously contract, and would...be afraid.

She really didn’t mean for it.

"I will try hard to forget those events, those... people." She turned around, looking at the still calm sea.

Gu Lingqian stood behind her, gently pressing her arm.

"Uncle doesn’t usually like to participate in these kinds of activities, probably because..." He looked at Yu Wanqing walking alongside Gu Beicheng.

Recently, elders from both the Yu Family and the Gu Family have been spreading a lot of talk, seemingly, the good relationship between these two families is nearly confirmed.

Gu Lingqian didn’t know whether it was true or not, these rumors, Nian Nian probably heard them too.

"You should be mentally prepared."
