Murong Yunxi was taken aback and she looked up at the man.
The man had golden-yellow hair that was trimmed into an odd style. He was also wearing a diamond stud on his left year. The man looked energetic, but after seeing handsome lads like Gong Yu and Mou Yichen, Murong Yunxi could only comment on this man"s looks by saying "he looks energetic", or "he looks good". The man was wearing a T-shirt from Armani and paired it with a pair of trousers and a Burberry belt. His leather shoes were obviously hand-made and was definitely from a well-known brand.
The man stretched out his hand and supported himself against the wall, blocking Murong Yunxin in her path.
"Sir, you"re blocking the way."
Murong Yunxi did not want to stir up trouble. After all, her situation now was not like before. Now that she gained slight fame, a little movement could bring in huge trouble. Hence, she was very polite.
The corners of the man"s lips curled into a sinister smile. He snorted, "Alright, you can stop acting innocent."
"You know me?"
"Of course! And I"ve heard of you for many years."
"But I do not know you, and have nothing to do with you."
Murong Yunxi started thinking. She did not recall having met this person before. Perhaps he was one of her schoolmates.
"Hha, it"s okay. We may not have any encounters, but we"ll have more in the future."
The man said in a very casual tone, and he looked at Murong Yunxi with a meaningful look.
Murong Yunxi slightly frowned. "Sorry, I do not want to have any encounters with you. Please move."
"Yun Muxi, who doesn"t know about what happens in the entertainment industry? Since you"re in that industry, you can"t be a "clean" person anymore. Besides, you"re with a man in the same industry...haha, it"s all playing around, isn"t it?"
Murong Yunxi"s face darkened. She bent down as an attempt to crawl under his arm. She did not want to continue the conversation.
Before she could cross over, the man laid his other hand on her waist. He then lifted his hand off the wall and placed it on her shoulder. Murong Yunxi was instantly pulled into his embrace.
Murong Yunxi let out a shriek but the man did not care. He whispered by her ear, " "Yun Muxi, stop acting like you"re an innocent girl. Your kid is already three years old. You gave birth at 20 years old, how innocent can you be? It"s been so many years, who knows how playful you were? If not, how did you enter the industry?"
Murong Yunxi gave him a cold hard stare. Using her elbow, she hit him hard in the chest. The man did not expect that at all. He felt a suffocating pain from his chest.
He glared at her and said, "Yun Muxi, don"t take my kindness for granted and p.i.s.s me off! Did you think that everyone will give way to you just because Master Qi did? I am not so kind-hearted like him, if you p.i.s.s me off, I"ll teach you a lesson!"
"Oh? You work for Master Qi?"
"Master Qi? I am the Young Master of Du Enterprise, how am I weaker than that Master Qi? I don"t need to work for him!"
Murong Yunxi frowned as she stared at Du Rui. From that sentence alone, she already found out his ident.i.ty. S City was not very big, she knew of the few well-known big enterprises. The Du Enterprise that Du Rui had mentioned, alongside with Zhao Qi"s family"s Zhao Enterprise, the Yue Enterprise, and Fu Enterprise, were moving forward together to become the top four enterprises in S City.
Du Rui was actually in the same high school as them, but they were not in the same cla.s.s. However, the young masters of the four big enterprises were dubbed as the "F4 of Nine High School". They were very well-known.
"Du Rui, don"t think that you"re very capable. You"re just a frog in the well."
Murong Yunxi coldly stared at him. Her tone was cold too.
Her expression and way of speech resembled Gong Yu and Murong Ye. Du Rui was taken aback by what she said and his heart actually trembled a little. But soon he realized that she was just a little girl trying to scare him away. In fact, he did not think that she was very capable, he only thought that Murong Yunxi looked at Zhao Qi very highly but was looking down on him.
This was undeniably a blow to a man"s self-confidence. He pushed her against the wall in one swift move and suppressed her arms. He leaned forward and asked, "Haha, frog in the well? Then let me show you how easy it is for the frog in the wall to play with a D-list celebrity like you!"
After he finished his sentence, his lips dived in for hers. Because her arms were restricted, she was unable to block it. Hence, she lifted her right leg and kicked him hard at his lower body with her knee.
Du Rui felt the pain and immediately let her go and stumbled two steps back. He bent down to cover his part with both hands. He was suffering from so much pain he was gritting his teeth and dripping cold sweat. He was no longer as arrogant as he was.
Murong Yunxi was not about to let him go just like that. She stepped forward and gave him a big tight slap on the face. Du Rui was taken aback and touched his face with his hand. He harshly glared at her. But before he could say anything, Murong Yunxi gave him another slap at the other side of his face.
Du Rui was so angry, he forgot about the pain and wanted to return her the favor. But before he could reach out his hand, he was held back by another hand.
Du Rui was shocked and turned around to look. He was welcomed by a cold hard stare.
He got a scare from this pair of eyes.
"Gong Yu?" Murong Yunxi asked in surprise.
Gong Yu looked towards her. The harsh gaze immediately turned into a gentle one. "Why didn"t you call me?"
"I can handle him, I can"t always ask for help when I"m bullied. I have to be strong and protect myself! I"m using him to train myself."
"Silly girl, you don"t have to do this."
Seeing the two act so lovey-dovey, Du Rui was even more furious. He gently, snorted "Gong Yu, she"s just a D-list celebrity, do you still want her? And she gave birth well before 20 years old, who knows which man she messed around with? You"ll for sure become a cuckold!"
Gong Yu grabbed his wrist even tighter. Du Rui even heard cracking sound coming from his wrist; it was near the verge of being crushed into pieces.
Gong Yu"s cold voice was even more terrifying. "Firstly, she"s not a D-list celebrity. Secondly, she did not have a child with some random man, the child is mine. So the inappropriate comment about being a cuckold is all the more incorrect."
Du Rui was slightly shocked. He had always thought that Murong Yunxi had attached herself to Gong Yu through acting in this movie. He had never thought that the two had known each other for such a long time, and for Gong Yu to admit that the child is his.
"Haha, giving birth at 20, well before the age to get married. You two had a kid before you"re even married, that"s illegal. People are blindly chasing after you guys and have yet to notice it. Aren"t you worried about what their reaction will be when they find out? How do you think they will backlash you?"
"You don"t have to worry about this, just focus on thinking about how you"re going to walk out of this door today."
Right after he said his last word, he sent a punch across Du Rui"s face. It was a hard blow and his face became swollen immediately. He lost his balance and even flew into the wall. But since Gong Yu was still holding onto his arm, after Du Rui banged into the wall, he was "bounced" back immediately. Gong Yu lifted up his leg and caused Du Rui to crash into his knee. He felt a heart-wrenching pain from his stomach.
Before Du Rui could press his hand against his stomach, Gong Yu gave him another punch. Instantly, a refreshing cracking sound came from his chin. His head flew backwards and his body banged into the wall.
Before Du Rui could react to the continuous attacks, he was already beaten out of his senses. He could only feel the pain all over his body.
Du Rui was unwilling to submit to him. He glared at him and said, "You dare to hit me?" "You"re just a small celebrity, how dare you hit me? Don"t you know my ident.i.ty?"
"Ident.i.ty? To me, you"re just a sc.u.m that can"t fit in, what kind of ident.i.ty do you have?"
"Okay, Gong Yu, you just wait! I will make you pay for your ignorance and your behavior!"
"Haha, you think I grew up being scared by you?"
"Du Rui, you should think about how your life is going to have an earth-shattering change tomorrow. You"re the one that"s going to pay the price!"
Murong Yunxi suddenly spoke from aside in a cold voice. She then went forward and tugged on Gong Yu"s arm. "Come on, we have something on tonight, let"s stop wasting time on him."
Gong Yu glanced at Du Rui and turned to Murong Yunxi, "You"re going to let him go just like that?"
"I"m worried that you would hurt your hand if you hit him, forget about it! It won"t be good if we see blood and dirty our clothes."
Murong Yunxi said it very casually. Gong Yu was slightly taken aback. He had thought that she would complain about him being too impulsive but did not expect her reaction to be like this.
Murong Yunxi tugged onto his arm and turned to leave without looking at Du Rui one more time.
After leaving the restaurant, Murong Yunxi stopped a taxi and brought Gong Yu to a styling studio.
Murong Yunxi had always liked to remain low-key and did not like to doll up. However, she was oddly willing to get styled today. Gong Yu was shocked again. "What"s up? Is there someone important that you"re meeting today?"
Murong Yunxi froze for a split second before she finally realized what he meant. She smiled, "No there isn"t! The most important person to me is already by my side, who else do I have to see? I just want to have a makeover so that others will not think that I"m weak."
Gong Yu ruffled her hair and dotingly and gently said, "With me by your side, no one will think of you that way."
"No, no, no, I don"t want to always live in you guys" protection, I also want to have the ability to protect myself."
"But seeing you like this makes me feel like I"m not needed anymore."
"Who says so? You just have to love me. I having self-protection abilities and I needing you does not clash with each other."
"Xiao Xi, you"ve suddenly changed!"
"Oh? For good or for bad?"
"You"ve become stronger, I think that not long after, you might actually overtake me!"
"Haha, big celebrity Gong, actually, I really need you right now!"
"Oh? In what way? Tell me about it!"
