C9 A Stunning Man

Xia Mo did not hesitate to land the boat. She did not know why, but her heart felt incomparably calm. The boat brought her slowly towards the courtyard, causing the mirror-like pool to ripple.

A faint mist was floating on the lotus pond, as if it was a fairyland.

The boat gradually drew closer and hit the wooden pole, causing the boat to shake slightly. Xia Mo tightly grabbed the edge of the boat and did not let herself fall into the water.

"Be careful, the water here is very cold." The white clothed man extended his slender hand to the front of Xia Mo. His voice was gentle and pleasant to listen to. His ink-black long hair was casually scattered behind his back. It was absolutely beautiful to the point that it could move one's heart.

Xia Mo looked at the pair of beautiful hands and slowly placed them in his palm. It was slightly cool.

When she stabilized herself, she hurriedly pulled her hand back and her fingers touched his sleeve. It was silky smooth.

"I... I am looking for Master Lingyu." Xia Mo said softly. This must be a dream. How could there be such a place and such a beautiful man in the office building?

"Follow me." The man in white laughed softly and his peach blossom eyes slightly narrowed. He turned around and walked towards the courtyard. Xia Mo saw that there was no one around and could only follow him closely.

It was very quiet here, as quiet as a paradise.

Xia Mo followed the man in white into the inner room and opened a door. The room inside was very small and the arrangement was elegant and exquisite. Two cups of tea were placed on the small wooden table in the room and it was emitting hot air.

She sat in front of the man in white and felt that her fashionable clothing was out of tune with this place. Her eyes looked around the room uneasily and was soon attracted by a painting on the wall.

The woman in the painting was lying horizontally on the chaise lounge chair. She had a beauty that could topple countries, and her lazy expression was extremely enchanting. However, there was a domineering air between her brows, making people not dare to profane her. A woman had merged such a soft and hard aura into such a perfect state that it made people unable to look away.

"The woman in this painting is so beautiful, as beautiful as a fairy." Xia Mo could not help but exclaim. Seeing the smile on the man in white, she smiled awkwardly.

"She is indeed very beautiful. This painting only shows a third of her beauty." When the man in white talked about the woman in the painting, his eyes could not help but become gentle. His voice could drip water but there was a trace of sadness in his words. After a pause, he looked at Xia Mo and said, "Your eyes are injured?"

"Injured a few days ago." Xia Mo could not help but be shocked. She did not take off her sunglasses. How did he know that he was Master Lingyu?

"Was it the little black dog at home?"

"Yes."

Xia Mo could not help but sit up straight and her eyes became respectful.

"Sigh, the will of heaven cannot be disobeyed." The man in white sighed and placed the small wooden box on the table. He pushed it towards Xia Mo and said, "Keep it. If you feel that you are in danger, eat it."

Xia Mo was somewhat confused. She took the wooden box and gently opened it. There was a black pill inside.

"What is this?" Xia Mo took the pill out of the wooden box and carefully studied it. There was no strange smell and she curiously looked at the man in white.

"This pill will save your life." The man in white smiled calmly. His face was like a peach blossom. Mu Ru Chun Feng said, "If you need anything, you can come to me at any time. There is no need to make an appointment."

Xia Mo still wanted to ask something. The scenery in front of her suddenly changed. The lovely lotus pond turned into a bustling office, as if it was a dream just now.

Xia Mo knew that it was definitely not an illusion or a dream just now but a real existence. Because her hand was still tightly holding the small wooden box.

"Miss Xia, next time please book the time in advance." A woman in black professional attire stood beside her and said mechanically. She turned around and said to a man on the sofa, "Mr. Yue, it's your turn."

The man called Mr. Yue stood up and tidied up his suit before following the woman into a glass room. Inside sat a fat woman. She had her left hand placed on the crystal ball with a mysterious expression.

This woman is Master Zero, then who was the man just now?

Xia Mo was full of doubt and squeezed the small wooden box in her hand. She did not have a good impression of the fat woman in front of her. She turned around and left. When she saw the rubbish bin by the door, she wanted to throw the small wooden box away but when she remembered the words of the man in white, it was best to keep something that could save her life.

The moment she stepped out of the door, she saw the little black dog running out from the corridor. Behind it was a panting security guard.

"Coal ball, why did you run up here?" Xia Mo looked at the little black dog hiding behind her to seek refuge and scolded softly.

"This is your dog?" The security guard's expression was a little ugly as he walked in front of Xia Mo and said, "This place cannot be casually brought in by pets, especially Master Lingyu."

"Sorry, I'll take it away immediately." Xia Mo saw the security guard and softly apologized to him. She quickly squatted down and picked up the little black dog. Under the security guard's gaze, she walked to the elevator entrance.

The little black dog's nose twitched as if it smelled something. It struggled to half of its body and looked around. Finally, its gaze stopped on the small wooden box in her hands. It wanted to let her throw it away but it could only watch Xia Mo put it into her handbag.

It was hard for heaven's will. Against...

Xia Mo kept thinking about this question. What did that man want to say to her?

Time passed by slowly. Xia Mo packed her luggage and rushed to the ferry. It was almost four o'clock. Lee Jun had been waiting at the pier for a long time. When he saw her appear, he secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

"Here, this is the script." Lee Jun handed the leather bag in his hand to Xia Mo. She could vaguely see the bandage under her sunglasses. She could not help but worry, "Your eyes are not healed yet. How do you put on makeup? You even brought it here. What exactly are you thinking?!"

Lee Jun looked at the little black dog squatting on the ground and raising its little face to look at the two of them. The corner of his mouth could not help but twitch a few times.

Xia Mo ignored his words and opened the leather bag and took out a stack of paper.

"Cen Rihui actually wants to try the horror movie of the Republic of China, huh." Xia Mo quickly flipped through the script and could not help but sneer, "It seems that this film is going to be the worst award in his life. The story has no new meaning and his logical thinking is chaotic. It seems that this person only has an undeserved reputation."

"As long as you can enter the entertainment industry, I will not care whether they are real or not. Even if you hate it, please don't show it on your face."

"Aren't you afraid that I'll be banned because of this lousy movie? I won't even be able to film a commercial?" Xia Mo teased.

"I can't wish for more. This way, I can pack up and go back to my hometown and marry a wife to live a good life." Lee Jun glared at her and muttered, "I don't care if you live or die!"
