Chapter 11 Envying A Dog!?
Chapter 11 Envying A Dog!?
"Thank you for the ride, here is 20$."
When she reached the destination, Xu Ruo handed the driver a 20$ bill she kept secretly in her pocket, she then neatly stepped out of the taxi then walked a few feet on the sidewalk.
She suddenly stopped walking and came to a halt.
Looking up at the tall, glass building with its name proudly displayed on the sign.
[World Entertainment!]
She showed a small smile.
'Gu Xia... Don't think I don't know where you are!'
'Every day, I have someone place a tracker on your pants, so I can see your every move!'
Without thinking anymore she burst through the front entrance drawing attention from everyone in the main lobby.
The front desk receptionist's eyes widened when she saw Xu Ruo.
Of course she knew who this woman was!
After all, she's seen her with Shu Ling multiple times.
Leaving her position from behind the long desk she walked over to Xu Ruo with a professional smile plastered on her face.
"Welcome miss Xu! What brings you here today?"
Xu Ruo, who heard the lady talk to her, showed a nice smile.
"I don't need anything. I just need to see Gu Xia."
The front desk receptionist froze in place as she felt her entire body shiver for a split second though after a few seconds she got her act together.
Clearing her throat she spoke.
"Miss Xu, the chairman, left about an hour ago..."
"!?"
Xu Ruo's face showed that of pure confusion as question marks floated around her head.
'I-Impossible! I put a tracker on him!'
Although she wanted to say that out loud she just couldn't...
After all that's like stating to everyone she is a stalker!
Which she isn-
Well maybe she is a little bit of a stalker...
Suddenly Xu Ruo thought of a possibility!
'Wait! This little employee is probably trying to deceive me!'
'Ahahaha!!! Gu Xia you think I'm dumb!?'
'Well think again!'
*Cough.*
Causing a fake cough Xu Ruo looked at the front desk receptionist.
"Apologies, I need to use the bathroom..."
With these words said Xu Ruo walked over to the elevator and stepped inside.
Once she was inside, she pressed the button which was the 12th floor...
The elevator's door closed and it began going upward.
After a few minutes the elevator stopped and opened revealing a luxurious hallway.
Before exiting the elevator she peaked her head out and looked around,
Seeing nobody in sight she confidently stepped out and made her way to Gu Xia's private office.
'I wonder what Gu Xia's expression is going to be like when I appear out of nowhere?'
'Anyways, once I see him I'll force him to tell me my ending!'
'I must know!'
Arriving in front of the doors that led into Gu Xia's private office, Xu Ruo didn't feel any need to knock so she straight up opened the doors just to be met with a shocking scene...
Her entire face went beat red and her entire body went hot.
"W-W-W-W-W!?"
Xu Ruo tried to speak but she found herself not able to even finish a word.
Not in her entire life has ever seen such a scene!
As for what she saw?
It was Xo Quin who was still on the carpet painted with white liquids that covered her entire naked body.
She still laid on her back facing upward but the only difference was that she was sleeping.
Xu Ruo quickly took out her phone and looked at her tracker map and shockingly she found that the red dot on the map was perfectly pinpointed onto the naked woman who was sleeping!
'D-Did Gu Xia know I was tracking him and placed it on this woman!?'
'Damn I really underestimated him...'
Clearing her mind and taking deep breaths Xu Ruo slowly walked toward the naked woman.
Once she was above her she lightly tapped her.
Xo Quin slowly opened her eyes as she spoke timidly.
"G-Gu Xia, please spare me. I can't go another round... I think you broke my insides..."
Xu Ruo's entire face went red as a tomato and she found herself oddly fascinated that Gu Xia could put a woman into this type of state.
'Interesting... To think Gu Xia could cause such damage to a woman!'
At this time Xo Quin rubbed her eyes and when she saw that the figure standing a couple inches away from her was not Gu Xia but a woman she found herself beyond embarrassed to the point of wanting to die.
"W-W-Who are you!?"
Xo Quin quickly stood up and covered herself with her ripped one piece dress.
For some reason Xu Ruo became embarrassed as well...
After all this was the first time she saw someone naked beside herself.
"I-I'm looking for Gu Xia..."
"Gu Xia?"
"Yes, do you know where he is?"
"Are you one of his women?"
Hearing Xo Quin's question, Xu Ruo felt like passing out and immediately denied it.
"IMPOSSIBLE! I would never become his woman!"
Xo Quin was a little taken back when she saw Xu Ruo's entire body go red and yelled her words.
"I see... My apologies."
"Don't worry about... I apologize, this is the first time I've been put in a situation where I've seen a naked woman covered in sperm..."
Xo Quin who was already embarrassed now felt shame when she was told directly what was on her.
She knew ok!
You don't have to say it out loud!
Taking a deep breath Xo Quin looked Xu Ruo in the eyes and asked a question.
"Why are you looking for Gu Xia?"
"...."
Xu Ruo was a little blinded by her question and didn't know how to answer.
She can't just say.
"Oh, we're in a novel world where everyone's lives are destined for a certain path and only Gu Xia seems to know everyone's paths! So, I'm just trying to force him to tell me my ending!"
She knew this woman would look at her like she was crazy!
And she can't have her reputation being ruined if people got wind of what she said!
After a couple minutes of silence Xu Ruo answered Xo Quin's question with a small confident expression.
"I'm not here personally, I'm the secretary for the President of Beauty Heaven and I'm here to ask Gu Xia about partnership for both companies."
Xo Quin nodded her head in understanding.
"I see... Well I don't want to waste your time, I must take a shower then head to Gu Xia's private villa..."
"Oh, by the way he isn't here right now."
With those final words said Xo Quin exited out of the private office.
Before she left she grabbed Gu Xia's coat that was on a hanger and wore it.
Xu Ruo, who was left by herself, sighed in relief that Xo Quin believed her.
*Buzzzz!*
Suddenly she felt her phone start buzzing in her hand and looking down at the screen she saw Shu Ling's name and instantly picked up without hesitation.
[President?]
[Xu Ruo, why haven't you returned back to the company yet?]
Shu Ling who was on the other side of the phone was a little worried that her secretary hadn't returned back yet so she decided to call and see if everything was alright.
And Xu Ruo, who heard the concern in her boss's voice, felt moved.
[President, thank you for your concern but I got a little derailed and wanted to stop by a place before returning back to the company.]
Although Xu Ruo didn't want to lie to her boss, she really had no choice... After all, she knew the relationship between Gu Xia and her boss.
[I see, return back as soon as possible, I'm backed into a corner right now...]
Shu Ling said with a little anger and sadness.
[Backed into a corner!? How?]
Xu Ruo asked with visible concern in her voice.
[Well, my entire family is beyond enraged that the Gu family wanted to cancel the engagement...]
*Sigh...*
Shu Ling deeply sighed then continued speaking:
[Thanks to my mother, Gu Luo agreed to talk in person about it... The reason I'm backed into a corner is because Gu Xia exposed a recording of how he was constantly belittled by me which deeply upset the Gu family.]
[And my father called upon me to apologize to Gu Xia in person...]
[He even threatened me that he would stop funding my beauty company if I didn't show up and apologize.]
[So, I was wondering if you could go with me just so I can at least have someone by my side...]
The entire time, Xu Ruo listened attentively to every word said.
[I understand, I'll accompany you to the best of my abilities.]
[Really!? Thanks Xu Ruo I knew I could count on you!]
After talking for a little bit longer they both said their goodbyes and hung up the phone.
.
.
.
Shu Ling who was sitting in her tesla felt relieved.
Placing her phone in a cup holder she rubbed her forehead.
"Damn it... Now I know 100% that Gu Xia never really had feelings for me..."
"At this point it doesn't matter, I was caught off guard by the video Gu Xia showed my family."
"I must salvage this engagement! Even If I have to b-b-beg..."
.
.
.
Gu Xia who didn't know that Shu Ling was going to do anything to stop the engagement from being canceled was currently dancing with his dog who was a German Shepherd named Scout!
He beautifully danced hand to paw with Scout as he sang happily in his room.
"This is gonna be the best day of my life?."
"My li-i-i-i-i-ife?."
"This is gonna be the best day of my life?."
"My li-i-i-i-i-ife?."
"I howled at the moon with friends?."
"And then the sun came crashing in?."
"Wo-o-o-o-o-oh, wo-o-o-o-o-oh?."
"But all the possibilities?."
"No limits, just epiphanies?."
"Wo-o-o-o-o-oh, wo-o-o-o-o-oh?."
The door leading into Gu Xia's room opened revealing Gu Lin who watched in disbelief as her son was dancing with Scout.
Not in her entire life has she ever seen her son sing or dance!
Suddenly jealousy rose in her heart when she saw Scout dancing with her son.
'Why isn't it me who is dancing hand to hand with him!?'
As she reflected on what she just said to herself, she felt deeply shocked that she was envious of a damn dog for dancing with her son…
