Old Master Gu was really ruthless this time. He directly removed Gu Sheng from his position and stripped him of all his power in the Gu Corporation. After this incident, many people in the Gu Corporation started to have their own thoughts and began to express their goodwill to Gu Shen.

  Song Ming was glad that he had sided with the right person. He told Gu Shen about the recent activities in the company and told Yan Xi about her work.

  She was actually assigned to the marketing department that was in charge of the fashion business.

  That night, Gu Shen sorted out a document and handed it to Yan Xi.

  “This is the organizational structure and revenue situation of the marketing department. Take a look. The director of the marketing department is currently Cheng Ming. You’ll be working with him. You don’t have to report to me about the marketing department’s business. But if there is a disagreement, tell me at any time.”


  Yan Xi flipped through the document. “Why would there be a disagreement? I’m just going there to work. I’m not looking for trouble.”


  Gu Shen chuckled. “Just in case.”


  “Don’t worry. I’m a people person. I won’t get into trouble with anyone.”


  “I hope so.”


  Yan Xi raised her chin and said proudly, “My first goal after entering the company is to earn 100 million yuan first, then get a dividend and a generous year-end bonus.”


  “Are you going to give me some of your bonus?”


  “You have your own bonus.” Yan Xi refused. “Don’t always think about my money.”


  “Your money?” Gu Shen raised his eyebrows. He reached out and pinched Yan Xi’s chin. “Did someone forget that she still owes me money?”


  “Don’t mention money. Money talk is gonna ruin our relationship,” Yan Xi said.

  Gu Shen clicked his tongue and smiled gently.

  Yan Xi giggled and continued to flip through the documents in her hand. Suddenly, she felt suffocated.

  Her smile faded and she couldn’t catch her breath.

  Yan Xi clutched her chest tightly. She held onto the table and panted heavily.

  “What’s wrong?” Gu Shen realized that something was wrong with her and asked nervously, “Yan Xi, what’s wrong?”


  It hurts… my heart hurts…


  Yan Xi frowned and blacked out.

  …


  Yan Xi felt that she had a long dream.

  She saw her young self being taken away by her master from a laboratory filled with medical equipment. She grabbed her master’s hand and wanted to call out for her father, but he stopped her.

  Her master said that he was not worthy of being her father. Yan Xi thought for a long time but could not figure out what he meant.

  Her master brought her home and introduced her to his daughter and wife. Her master’s wife made dumplings and cakes for her. Her master’s daughter shared her favorite toys with her.

  Her name was Yan Xi.

  This was the name her master had given her, but her master didn’t tell her what this name meant.

  Yan Xi stood at the side and watched quietly. She was like an outsider who was reliving her childhood and the details that she had forgotten were revealed again.

  ‘Why?’


  Yan Xi felt that everyone was very strange. She looked at her young figure and for the first time, she doubted her background.

  “Xixi… Xixi, wake up…”


  Someone was shouting at her incessantly.

  Yan Xi suddenly opened her eyes. She panted heavily and looked at the ceiling in horror.

  “Xixi.” Gu Shen quickly held her hand. His voice was a little anxious and filled with concern. “What’s wrong?”


  “Gu Shen?”


  “I’m here.”


  Yan Xi blinked and calmed herself down. She slowly sat up and asked with confusion, “What happened to me?”


  “You fainted.” Gu Shen said, “The doctor said that it was caused by low blood sugar.”


  ‘Low blood sugar.’


  She had not had a good rest recently. Just as Yan Xi was about to say something, a glass of water was handed to her.

  “Have some water first.”


  Yan Xi drank half a glass of water and regained some strength. She looked at Gu Shen and her heart slowly calmed down.

  She was Yan Xi, Gu Shen’s Yan Xi.
