Chapter 650: Love Above All Chapter 9 The Great Family

Gu Xiaoxi lay on the sun lounger on the deck, basking in the warm afternoon sunshine, savoring the tranquility of the sea breeze against her face.

The azure sea, the light blue sky, she had never felt life could have such wonderful moments.

Quan Shaoqing was tall, wearing a black suit paired with a pair of refined black leather shoes.

He exuded a feeling of dark depth at all times.

From a distance,

he stared at the girl not far away, his eyes narrowing into slits, a very strange feeling surging in his heart. Somehow, there was a bit of reluctance to hand her over to someone else now.

But thinking about it, he had only known her for one night.

Beautiful women were everywhere in the world. But women who could be exchanged for benefits were indeed few and far between.

"What are you spacing out for?" Suddenly, Gu Xiaoxi’s voice came through.

Quan Shaoqing looked up and saw the girl lying mischievously on the sun lounge, throwing him a flirtatious glimpse.

"What? Do you want me to do something?" Quan Shaoqing strode forward with his long legs, sitting beside her, his words full of provocation.

"Pfft!" Gu Xiaoxi felt that men always had some incomprehensible thoughts. "Hey! How about we make a deal? You let me go, and when I earn ten million in the future, I’ll pay you back. We can still be friends afterward."

"Didn’t you agree to be my little brother? Changed your mind so soon?" Quan Shaoqing raised his eyebrows, his face mocking.

"I was forced into it!" Gu Xiaoxi snorted: "If you weren’t planning to send me away, would I have to sell myself like that?"

She wasn’t crazy about him!

Moreover, she instinctively felt that being around Quan Shaoqing was too dangerous.

Staying by his side, she would be the unlucky one.

"Gu Xiaoxi, do you really not remember who you are at all?" Quan Shaoqing stared into her eyes, their gaze locked tightly.

Gu Xiaoxi blinked, "I told you, I don’t belong to this world. Besides, didn’t you find out my identity? Tell me about it."

Seeing her sincerity, Quan Shaoqing stood up facing the sea, the corners of his mouth slightly upturned, "You’ll find out tomorrow morning."

Not telling?

Why wait until tomorrow morning?

Gu Xiaoxi got up from the sun lounge and sidled up to Quan Shaoqing, "What’s the difference between telling me now and telling me tomorrow morning?"

"Of course, there’s a difference!"

Afterwards, Quan Shaoqing strode away.

Gu Xiaoxi felt that the man had suddenly become much colder.

That night, even after searching every corner of the boat, she still couldn’t find him.

The next morning, when the sky was still dim,

Gu Xiaoxi heard noises on the boat.

And the boat had docked.

She instinctively jumped out of bed, quickly dressed herself, hunched over, tiptoeing, ready to escape from the boat.

As long as she got to shore, her world would be free, regardless of whether or not she wanted her family.

Because she had been wild since she was a child.

It seemed that an important person had come aboard, a uniform group of people in black, surrounding the place completely.

Gu Xiaoxi simply couldn’t find a route to escape.

Just as she was becoming extremely anxious, a group of people charged toward her briskly.

The man in the lead was dressed in a suit and wore sunglasses, his walk brisk, clearly a man of significant status.

"Xiao Xi, you scared me to death. Brother Xuan has finally found you." Mi Xi strode forward, removing his glasses.

Gu Xiaoxi examined the man, and connecting it with his words, she guessed, "Is this her brother? Family?"

At least, the concern she saw in his eyes seemed genuine.

Gu Xiaoxi said nothing, and the other person pulled her hand, checking her thoroughly to see she wasn’t harmed, then bent down to embrace her, comforting, "Brother will take you home, sorry! It’s all my fault, I wasn’t by your side, and you got lost. This won’t happen again."

Gu Xiaoxi looked at her own brother, dazed.

She thought he was so handsome!

If Quan Shaoqing was like the fire of hell, filled with a chilling dark aura,

then he was like a stunning flower, brilliantly gorgeous. Both wore black suits, but his face radiated a sunny disposition, even at first sight.

She felt a kinship with him.

Gu Xiaoxi blinked her large eyes, and as for the situation of her lineage, she still did not understand.

Since he didn’t say much, she decided not to speak either.

Being held by a handsome and gentle brother was quite blissful after all!

Gu Xiaoxi buried her head into the man’s embrace, and started to chuckle secretly.

As long as she got away from the dangerous Quan Shaoqing, everything would be a new beginning.

Meanwhile, on the second floor of the ship’s cabin.

Two men stood in front of the window, watching the scene below.

Quan Shaoqing noticed that Gu Xiaoxi had been obediently silent. It seemed she was smart. She hadn’t recklessly exposed herself as coming from another world.

"My esteemed fellow, it’s been a pleasure working with you," Quan Shaoqing suddenly turned, smiling at Bai Yaxuan.

Bai Yaxuan nodded, and they shook hands. "The agreement is signed, so I’ll take my leave."

"Don’t you want to have a drink to celebrate? In the future, our relationship will be inseparable," Quan Shaoqing said with a corner of his mouth turned up and a sly smile in his eyes.

At that moment, Jin Xiao came with a tray holding two glasses of champagne.

Seeing this, Bai Yaxuan glanced over and said with disdain, "We do have an inseparable relationship indeed. To think of getting a piece of the action on my turf, how typical of someone from the Quan Family. I bid you farewell, and as for the other matters in the contract, I’ll have someone get in touch with you."

Saying so, he turned and strode away.

Of course, it wouldn’t be that easy for Quan Shaoqing to muscle in on his territory.

Since he dared use Gu Xiaoxi as leverage, he would just have to acquiesce.

In a luxurious bulletproof car, Mi Xi settled Gu Xiaoxi on the seat, fussing over her with warm questions: "Xiao Xi, are you hungry? Did Young Master Quan bully you? Where all have you been?"

Gu Xiaoxi’s large eyes flitted around, wondering how to respond.

If he dared to take her off Quan Shaoqing’s boat, it must have been with Quan Shaoqing’s consent.

He surely knew what she had been through.

Just as Gu Xiaoxi was about to break down in tears, someone knocked on the car door.

Then, Mi Xi gently patted Gu Xiaoxi’s head and reassured her, "Don’t be afraid, we’re going home now. No one will dare to bully you."

Gu Xiaoxi quickly nodded in agreement.

With a gentle smile, Mi Xi said, "Alright, your favorite Brother Xuan wants to speak with you. I’ll leave first, call me if you need anything."

Gu Xiaoxi nodded again.

After Mi Xi left, Gu Xiaoxi leaned back in her seat and took a deep breath, relieved that there was no one else in the car, not even the driver.

The car had a small, exquisite sofa inside; in front of the sofa was a small table with an ashtray, financial magazines, and newspapers laid out on it.

At a glance, this place seemed like a man’s official car.

Gu Xiaoxi quickly spotted the content of a newspaper headline and curiously picked it up.

"Miss Gu of the Gu Family goes missing; the President and the Gu Family members have searched the entire country to no avail. We suspect Miss Gu has been kidnapped..."

The foolish Miss? Her?

No wonder! She had been silent, and not even her brother had realized that she was not the actual Gu Xiaoxi?

Just then, the car door sounded once.

Gu Xiaoxi quickly returned the newspaper to the table, sitting up straight and wide-eyed.

Before she could get back to normal, she needed to figure out the situation with the people around her.

The man who entered was a striking figure, dressed in a beige suit so clean not a speck of dust could be seen, every move he made exuded an innate nobility.

He got into the car and sat beside her, looking at her for a long time. Finally, he took her hand and said softly, "Silly girl! I’ve always said I would take care of you for life. You run into trouble, and you don’t even call me. Xiao Xi, you must have suffered a lot."

Gu Xiaoxi blinked her eyes, saying nothing. She had no idea what to say.

As for which of the handsome men she had met was the President, that was a very important identity!

She couldn’t let the truth slip easily.

Bai Yaxuan, seeing the girl’s silence, knew no amount of words would make her understand. He finally bowed his head and gently kissed her forehead, "The wedding is soon, and for your safety, I will have someone protect you. You can’t be running around anymore. You have to be good to get candy!"

Gu Xiaoxi clenched her hand, thinking if it weren’t for the risk of causing trouble, she would kick him right then.

Taking liberties with her and doing so openly?

What did he mean the wedding is soon?

Was she supposed to marry him?

Too many questions left Gu Xiaoxi utterly confused.

Fortunately, aside from caring for her, he made no other moves.

In the end, she was escorted home by the two most handsome and powerful men in the world.

The Gu Family home was even more luxurious than Gu Xiaoxi had imagined.

It wasn’t just luxurious; it was comparable to a sprawling estate, a glittering palace.

Located in the prime area of A city, the most important thing was that just the garden alone spanned several acres, with houses that were stunningly beautiful.

The Western-style architecture boasted four buildings situated artfully at the center of the garden. Exquisite carved Roman columns and a six-story castle, each building occupying nearly two thousand square meters, spacious enough for over two hundred people.

From the outside alone, one could tell this was a grand family estate!
