After Elder Gu left, the second uncle and his wife realized there was nothing interesting to see, so they found an excuse and left. The eldest aunt, dragging her son, angrily went to find her husband to settle the score.
Only Gu Xiangyi and Xu Xiangbei were left in the conference room.
Holding the equity confirmation letter, Gu Xiangyi was overwheld with emotion, disbelief in her eyes: "How is it possible that they, who’ve always been eyeing like a hawk, afraid that I’d take over the Gu Family’s assets, would let the eldest uncle be so generous as to give the equity, making the absolute controller of the company. Did you sohow control his mind?"
Xu Xiangbei, with a sly smile, hugged Gu Xiangyi’s fragrant shoulders: "Don’t worry, since Uncle Gu gave the equity to you, he must have his reasons. Stop overthinking and focus on your work, get more orders."
Gu Xiangyi didn’t struggle, like a docile little kitten, letting Xu Xiangbei hold her: "Thank you. If it weren’t for your help, I really don’t know what I’d be like now, or if I’d even be alive."
"Silly girl, stop overthinking. I worked all night for your sake, and now I need to go ho to sleep a bit. Rember to have dinner with at Brother Ouyang’s house on Sunday."
Xu Xiangbei took a taxi back to Spring Villa. Last night, he had an all-night discussion with the lawyer about the equity issue, and hadn’t slept a wink, now feeling like his eyelids were weighed down with lead and could barely open.
After dozing for a bit, he heard his phone continuously playing music; it was actually a call from Gu Xinyan, and the sound from the phone, combined with the one from downstairs, overlapped like an echo in a valley.
"Dr. Xu, wake up, soone is looking for you."
Xu Xiangbei opened his sleepy eyes, got up, and saw a young man with blue-dyed hair, standing respectfully at the door, holding a set of keys with the Porsche logo on them.
"Hello, Dr. Xu, Brother Hua Ji asked to bring the Porsche over; it’s parked at the community entrance. Brother Hua Ji asked to tell you that the car has been fully repaired, as good as new, so you can go ahead and drive it. Rember to co to us for maintenance after a while."
Xu Xiangbei was overjoyed and quickly followed the young man to the community entrance, where he saw the silver Porsche he liked.
"Go back and thank Brother Hua Ji for ."
Now with a new car, Xu Xiangbei had no mind to sleep at all, eager to take it for a spin imdiately. But at the mont he grabbed the car door, he hesitated and quickly ran back to the villa.
He went back to the villa, took a shower, changed into a clean, casual shirt, put on a pair of shiny loafers, straightened his hair, applied styling gel, dressed up like a handso guy relying on clothes.
Gu Xinyan, who was exercising in the hall, looked at him in surprise: "Are you going on a date?"
Xu Xiangbei grinned: "Of course, I’m going on a date. Didn’t you see how handsoly I’m dressed?"
Gu Xinyan sneered: "Handso? I don’t think so."
Xu Xiangbei quietly moved closer, reaching out to touch Gu Xinyan’s face.
Gu Xinyan was so scared that she quickly dodged to the side, but with her condition, she couldn’t fully use her legs, only able to stand and take a step or two at most, without any big or rushed movents.
In her panic, the nerve in her leg caused intense pain, and she accidentally fell backward.
Xu Xiangbei took the opportunity and held Gu Xinyan’s soft, willow-thin waist, slling the faint scent of her shampoo, smiling slyly: "Fairy sister, how did you manage to be so careless? Luckily, I caught you."
Gu Xinyan pouted with a slight tint of annoyance: "It’s all your fault. If you hadn’t reached out to touch , would I have fallen?"
Xu Xiangbei picked a strand of hair from her face, chuckling wickedly: "Fairy sister, I’m a gentleman, I wouldn’t think of touching you."
Gu Xinyan suddenly widened her eyes. She felt Xu Xiangbei’s hand sliding from her waist downwards and quickly raised her hand to pinch Xu Xiangbei’s ear: "Help up, and stop touching around."
Xu Xiangbei grimaced: "Why do you and your sister have the sa trick, both like to pinch people’s ears."
Once stabilized again, Gu Xinyan’s face flushed. She carefully distanced herself from Xu Xiangbei, looking at him warily: "Does my sister also pinch your ear often? Seems like you’ve often harassed her, right?"
Xu Xiangbei tidied up his supposedly stylish hair, chuckling: "Who touched your sister? I’m a gentleman; don’t ruin my reputation. Plus, both of you are my future wives. Touching my wife doesn’t count as harassnt, right?"
"Pervert, shaless."
"If you won’t let touch, then I’ll go see my new girlfriend."
Hearing Xu Xiangbei happily ntion a new girlfriend, Gu Xinyan felt a sudden pang of jealousy. She coldly said, "Hurry up and go date your girlfriend. Don’t disturb my workout."
Giving Gu Xinyan’s graceful figure a longing glance, Xu Xiangbei turned and left the villa.
As he walked out the door, Xu Xiangbei dangled the Porsche car key in his hand and left a remark: "No need to be jealous, beauty, my new girlfriend is a Porsche. I’m just taking the new car out for a test drive. In a few days, I’ll take you and your sister out for a ride."
Gu Xinyan recalled that Xu Xiangbei’s Ferrari was taken back by Gu Jie yesterday, and she hadn’t expected him to replace it with a Porsche so quickly.
Earlier, when Xu Xiangbei said he was dating a new girlfriend, her heart really felt a bit sour. Turns out, he was just going out to try a new car, and her mood brightened.
She is a smart, emotionally sensitive girl. Realizing her emotional change, her face turned red with embarrassnt, a bit scared. How could she care so much about what Xu Xiangbei said? Could it be that she really likes this frivolous guy?
Arriving at his Porsche, Xu Xiangbei touched the silver, mirror-like surface of the car, feeling its cool, smooth touch and tires glowing like fire.
He liked it secretly, talking to himself with a laugh: "You will be my cherished girlfriend from now on. I should give you a na, let’s call you Lightning. How about the na? If you don’t object, it ans you agree; I’ll call you Lightning from now on."
Xu Xiangbei slamd the accelerator, and the Porsche engine roared loudly. In just a few seconds, it accelerated to 200 mph, the strong push back made him feel a rush.
A silver Porsche, like a flash of lightning, raced down the mountain road, leaving many cars far behind along the way.
Ahead on the road appeared a dozen Harley motorcycles, their engines rumbling like bombers, racing wildly in front.
On the bike at the forefront, a person with a petite figure, a ponytail peeking out from under the helt, a leather jacket clad in silver chains, revealing a snow-white lower back nearly showing the buttocks groove. A black rose tattoo on the waist was exactly the Black Rose Xu Xiangbei had always been concerned about.
