Luo Xi’s eyes brightened and she eagerly took the box and opened it.
Inside was a bracelet, a simple silver piece with a small jade pendant shaped like a fox. The carving was vivid, especially the pair of red and translucent fox eyes that seemed almost alive. Upon closer inspection, she noticed the character for “Xi” was carved on the fox’s back.
This was an extremely high-quality piece of jade, surpassing the blood jade necklace she wore. It felt pleasantly cool against her skin.
Seeing her fondness for the bracelet, Leng Minxing’s expression softened a bit. He said, “Aren’t you hungry? Let’s eat first.”
“Okay!” Luo Xi quickly nodded and then took his suit jacket upstairs with her.
Just days after a fierce fight, he was already giving her gifts.
Everyone around was astonished. They thought the Young Madam was about to lose favor, but it seemed they had overthought it.
It was better not to offend her in the future.
The next morning, Leng Minxing was abruptly awakened by a slap from someone.
She was still wearing the fox bracelet on her hand, and it landed squarely on his face, causing a bit of pain.
He sat up and looked at Luo Xi, who was sleeping soundly with her mouth open and hugging the quilt between her legs. He couldn’t help but grit his teeth.
Are today’s girls really this wild when they sleep?
And drooling too!
The last time she was sprawled on her arm could be explained, but now?
Crossing paths with someone who had morning rage resulted to disastrous consequences.
When Luo Xi heard the alarm and intended to get up, Leng Minxing gently told her it was still early and encouraged her to sleep a bit longer. He even turned off the alarm and lit some incense, which deeply moved Luo Xi. But when she opened her eyes again, it was already ten o’clock.
Yes, she was two hours late today.
As she made her way to school, she felt flustered and blamed herself for oversleeping. She didn’t even consider Leng Minxing’s part in it.
It wasn’t just her. A new rule had suddenly been established in the villa: maids could not weigh more than 120 jin1Also known as catty, equivalent to 0.6 kg, with the reasoning being that being overweight affected the villa’s image.
If anyone didn’t want to comply, they could continue gaining weight.
As a result, the heavier maids began a frantic weight-loss effort.
When Sister Zhou heard this news, it felt like a bolt from the blue!
Who didn’t know that she was the heaviest among all the maids? She was tall and weighed a staggering 160 jin.
The butler had only given them a month.
A month to lose 40 jin? Wasn’t that asking for her life?
Sister Zhou slapped herself hard and said, “Why did you have to speak up!”
While they were unhappy, Leng Minxing was delighted.
Upon hearing the news of Luo Xi being late, he even broke into an evil grin, making his subordinates show expressions of terror.
Was the President going mad, or were they?
…
Leng Me’er and Leng Muyu were of the same age and both excelled academically. When they heard that she transferred from the top aristocratic university, everyone was extremely surprised.
Why leave a good place to come to one that barely made it into the top five?
As luck would have it, the two entered Luo Xi’s class. Since the teacher had just lost two outstanding students, they were more than happy to welcome them.
Knowing they were twins, the teacher thoughtfully arranged for them to sit together.
When Leng Me’er and Leng Muyu entered Luo Xi’s class, they instinctively looked at her. To be honest, they felt a bit awkward. After all, their previous poor relationship. It was hard not to raise suspicions with their sudden appearance.
