Destined with You

He said, “I’ll comb your hair for you.”

“Can you?” Gu Qingxin looked up at him, her arms wrapped around his waist.

Beiming Han was startled at her question, and an odd look flashed across his face. Gu Qingxin, driven by curiosity, stared at him and saw his expression, which made her heart tighten.

“Hmm.” He replied, lowering his head, his fingers running through her hair. His movements were somewhat awkward, but he managed to successfully gather her long hair, then took the hairpin and fixed it in place.

Beiming Han had just finished combing her hair when Gu Qingxin suddenly raised her hand and dislodged the hairpin. Her black hair cascaded down again. Beiming Han frowned at her, “What are you doing?”

“I suddenly don’t like this hairstyle. It’s too old-fashioned. I’ll do it myself.” Gu Qingxin put down the hairpin and found a hair tie from the drawer. She simply gathered her long hair to the back of her head.

Gu Qingxin stood up and smoothed down her cheongsam. Although Beiming Han had been very careful, the back was still a bit wrinkled, but it was not noticeable unless looked closely.

Beiming Han gazed at her figure, tightly pursing his thin lips, his eyebrows couldn’t help but furrow.

There was a knock at the door. Beiming Han walked over. Ye Qi stood at the door and spoke a few words with him. Beiming Han looked back at Gu Qingxin and told her, “Don’t wander around. Stay in the room if there’s nothing.”

“I know.” Gu Qingxin didn’t want to go out either. If it wasn’t for Mr. Beiming’s prank, she wouldn’t want to come here at all.

Although Gu Qingxin didn’t go out, someone still wouldn’t leave her alone. Lieyan was diverted, and Beiming Shasha walked in, full of arrogance. She looked just like a peacock flaunting its tail.

Gu Qingxin saw that she was holding something that looked like a cup noodle container in her hand and stood up alertly. She asked with a frown, “What do you want, Miss Nine?”

“Nothing much, just came to pay you a visit. Don’t think that I won’t dare to touch you just because my sixth brother is backing you up. This is Jade Garden, not North Garden!” Beiming Shasha spoke with a glimmer of triumph in her eyes. She lifted her hand and was about to dump the contents of the cup on Gu Qingxin.

Gu Qingxin was aware of her the moment she entered and was already on guard. There was no way she’d let her get away with it.

Gu Qingxin moved faster than she did and pushed her hard. The boiling hot soup that Beiming Shasha was holding splashed all over her face and hair, causing her to scream out in pain.

“Alt! My face! My face!” Beiming Shasha was crying and shrieking. She had asked for the hot soup from the kitchen specifically to torment Gu Qingxin. She must be disfigured now, this cursed woman was ruthless.

Beiming Shasha’s screams drew a crowd, and the Beiming Family’s servants immediately went to inform the Master.

Gu Qingxin watched the ludicrous woman who was drenched in soup with cold eyes and took a step back. She was afraid if Beiming Shasha were to go mad and become violent, she might not be the one with the upper hand.

Therefore, it’s probably safer to keep her distance… if she were to actually go berserk, she could also run away.
