Chapter 3: Sister Ruoxue, Have You Ever Thought About Getting A Divorce?

“Enough! Ye Xiao!”

The weather was cold, and as soon as Gu Tingyuan shouted, Ye Xiao, who was wearing fluffy pajamas, instantly felt a chill.

It was as if the surrounding air dropped several degrees in that instant.

Ye Xiao slightly shrank her neck and a hint of panic flashing through her eyes.

Only the smile on her face barely held on, but even that smile was slowly fading.

No matter what, Gu Tingyuan was the president of a listed company, not someone of Ye Xiao’s level who could afford to provoke.

In her previous life, Ye Xiao was ordinary and had no chance to interact with this class of people.

Although she now had a system, her future greatness was still a matter for the future.

Currently, Ye Xiao’s villainess career was in its early stages, starting from scratch with nothing to her name.

Just like the game she played before crossing over, “Fantasy Beast Palu”, Gu Tingyuan was at least a Level 38 wild Boss—Forest Mammoth—to Ye Xiao.

At this stage, soloing him was impossible. Facing him head-on, the damage would only chip away at him with tiny bits of forced health deduction, barely scratching the surface.

And for Gu Tingyuan to kill her? That would be far too easy.

Right now, her opponent should be the cotton-soft Su Ruoxue inside the room, not Gu Tingyuan!

“Uncle, you really can’t take a joke. I won’t be keeping you company!”

With that, Ye Xiao turned and ran into the house.
Her movement was seamless, as if she had been ready to escape all along!

“Ye! Xiao!”

Gu Tingyuan’s voice rose by eight octaves! He even took a step forward, trying to grab this petite yet sharp-tongued little troublemaker.

“Bang!”

However, Ye Xiao showed no sign of stopping and even slammed the door shut behind her.

Fortunately, the hotel room didn’t face the hallway window. Otherwise, Ye Xiao would surely have stuck out her tongue at Gu Tingyuan, mocking him thoroughly.

Gu Tingyuan, who failed to catch her, was left with nothing but frustration.

However, he no longer felt the urge to open the door as urgently as before.

If Ye Xiao was in the room, then even if Ruoxue stayed the night here, it shouldn’t matter too much.

Gu Tingyuan, whose expression slightly softened, waved his hand at his younger brother.

“Tingxuan, have someone investigate the identity of the man who checked into the hotel with Ruoxue as soon as possible.”

“Got it, brother!”

Gu Tingxuan nodded, holding back his laughter, and grew more curious about Ye Xiao’s identity.

It was the first time he had seen someone provoke his brother into a rage and still manage to retreat unscathed.

Thinking of this, the last bit of his suppressed smile finally broke through.

“What are you laughing at? Hurry up and get moving!”

Gu Tingyuan vented his frustration on Gu Tingxuan, raising his foot to give him a hard kick.

“Hey, don’t hit me, brother! I’m not laughing. I’m going, I’m going!”

Gu Tingxuan begged for mercy verbally, but as he ran away, the smile on his face grew even wider.

Leaning against the door, Ye Xiao felt a strong sense of excitement from narrowly escaping the big boss. Her chest gently rose and fell with her breathing.

As for the system’s evaluation of her as a “Mesugaki”, Ye Xiao had initially rejected it.

After all, you couldn’t just give her a system after crossing over and expect her to become a Mesugaki.

She had to try it first!

Her tone and demeanor just now were unconscious imitations of the Mesugaki characters she had seen in her previous life.

She wasn’t naturally a Mesugaki!

But she had to admit, this body and the Mesugaki persona were a perfect match.

Playing the Mesugaki felt so natural, as if she was born for the role.

And she discovered, being a Mesugaki was incredibly fun!

Seeing that normally cold and domineering CEO, always expressionless in front of others, now trembling with anger and clenching his fists, yet helpless against her, Ye Xiao experienced a joy she had never felt before!

In the past, she thought Mesugaki deserved a good beating, that they needed to be taught a hard lesson!

But now, after becoming a Mesugaki herself and experiencing the beauty of it, her previous views were completely overturned!

She was so cute, her words and expressions were just a little annoying. What was wrong with that?

If that domineering CEO, Gu Tingyuan, got seriously angry over such a small matter, it would only prove that he lacked tolerance and had a small mind, unable to handle a cute girl like her!

Replaying the recent scene in her mind, Ye Xiao’s mood gradually lifted.

But why hadn’t the system announced the task completion and given her the reward yet?

“Ye Xiao.”

“!?”

Just as Ye Xiao was about to open the system interface to check her mission details, a gentle female voice came from within the room.

“Ah… Sister Ruoxue… are you all done?”

Faced with Su Ruoxue, Ye Xiao’s tone became a little unnatural.

As someone who had just crossed over, she should have no sense of belonging in this world.

But when it came to Su Ruoxue, Ye Xiao felt a slight sense of guilt and unease.

The guilt came from what her original self had done to Su Ruoxue.

Out of selfish desire, she had tarnished the reputation of an innocent woman, which was truly a cruel thing to do.

If it weren’t for her own sabotage, Su Ruoxue’s future might have been completely ruined!

Though she wasn’t the original Ye Xiao, having inherited her identity, she felt she had a responsibility to make amends.

The unease stemmed from last night’s events. Though she jokingly claimed to have the virtues of ancient heroes like Cao Cao, and indeed had dated a few older women in her previous life, this was the first time she had ever actually engaged in a real relationship with a married woman.

“Mmm…”

Su Ruoxue gently nodded.

Despite what had happened the night before, she still maintained her dignified appearance.

Her long, shiny black hair flowed down her back, and her hands were clasped gracefully in front of her waist.

It was clear that the Su family had put a lot of effort into raising their children.

Su Ruoxue exuded the elegant aura of a noble lady, gentle and calm, standing beside her made one feel a sense of peace and tranquility.

Su Ruoxue stood there, unblinkingly watching Ye Xiao.

Her eyes, like the waters of autumn, gave Ye Xiao no clue as to what she was thinking.

Though her gaze was incredibly gentle, it made Ye Xiao feel an immense pressure.

At that moment, the air seemed to freeze, and time no longer flowed.

Facing Su Ruoxue, Ye Xiao felt that she would rather confront an angry Gu Tingyuan. Where was the soft, harmless Ruoxue she expected?

After what felt like an eternity, Su Ruoxue finally sighed softly and spoke with infinite tenderness, “Is there nothing you want to explain to me?”

“Sister Ruoxue, have you ever thought about divorcing Gu Tingyuan?”
