Young Master Gu, Please Be Gentle

It was Silver Mask King’s conferment today!

Feng Lingxue sat on her seat quietly repeating the name, ‘Silver Mask King’ in her mind. She didn’t know him.

A few young ladies sat around her and with the mention of ‘Silver Mask King’, they started a conversation.

—-Wow, ever since Silver Mask King appeared three years ago, he has achieved so much in such a short span of time, he’s being conferred today as the Duke.

—-That’s right, I heard that there was an explosion at West Mountain Road last week and there were two deaths, South Duke’s eldest son Xuan Mu, as well as Ah Jiao’s Room’s top social escort Feng Lingxue!

—-Of course I know about it, who doesn’t know about that in Country A? I really hadn’t expected Feng Lingxue to just pass away like that.

—-The cosmetic surgery clinics have all used Feng Lingxue as their model, I heard that many women have spent tons of money on getting cosmetic surgery, just so they could have an identical appearance to Feng Lingxue.

—-Can’t you see one there?

Two ladies gave Xia Ling a questionable glance, their gaze seeming to think that Xia Ling had also gotten cosmetic surgery to look like Feng Lingxue.

—-She really does look like Feng Lingxue.

—-That’s right, I’ve seen many women who have undergone cosmetic surgery on social media and her surgery has turned out the best. She’s really beautiful.

—-Now this makes me feel like going for cosmetic surgery, Feng Lingxue is seriously stunning.

—-Stop talking! Look, Silver Mask King is here!

Silver Mask King had appeared.

Hearing those words, Xia Ling couldn’t help but her heart thumped and her gaze riveted over.

A bulletproof X luxury car drove on the red carpets, surrounded by a huge crowd and the back car window wound down, revealing a handsome face that was partiallly covered by a silver mask.

Xuan Ying!

Xia Ling was in a daze, when she wanted to take a clearer look, the luxury car already sped away and disappeared before her eyes.

“Silver Mask King, please say something.”

Cameras clicked and strong flash lighting was used. It was a huge commotion.

As Xia Ling looked in the direction of the car, she could feel the right side of her face hurting.

Lifting her hand, she ran her fingers over the right side of her face.Her skin was smooth and there was nothing on it, but she could feel as if a knife had lacerated her face, it hurt so badly.

What had happened to her?

—-Silver Mask King is gone, I want to see him again.

—-Stop being a lovestruck fool, Silver Mask King is such a prominent figure, he’s not someone we can easily reach out to. Just go back to living your own life now.

…

The bus stopped and Xia Ling arrived at A University. She hadn’t gone inside immediately, but rather, stepped into a salon.

“Miss, would you like a haircut?”

“Yes.” Xia Ling nodded. She looked at her long satiny hair and said, “Please help me cut it short.”

…

Twenty minutes later, at the A University campus.

“Xia Ling, is Xia Ling here yet?” The teacher-in-charge called her name.

A pleasant voice was heard. “Teacher, I’m here.”

The teacher and a few other classmates lifted their heads, noticing Xia Ling.

Xia Ling had cut her hair short, it was right above her shoulders and she had bangs. With her lustrous eyes, red pouty lips, she was innocent-looking and really charming.

She wore a matching outfit with Mu Mu, a white down jacket and black tapered pants, her legs long and slender and paired with white sneakers, she caught the attention of almost everyone once she appeared.

“Wow.”

Someone made a sound and everyone just looked at Xia Ling, not knowing how to react.

Coughs. The teacher coughed to get everyone back to normal. “Xia Ling, come over, which major are you planning to take?”

Xia Ling walked over, glancing at the list of majors offered and she picked up a pencil. “Teacher, I’d like to take fashion design.”

She ticked the box ‘fashion design’.

“Alright, Xia Ling. Congratulations on being part of A University now,” the teacher announced.

The corners of her lips kicked up, her beautiful face supple and radiant. She was only 21 years old, everything had just begun.

Feng Lingxue was already dead.

She was Xia Ling now.

Xia Ling and Feng Lingxue were completely different.

Feng Lingxue was an ice beauty, she didn’t like smiling and her eyes were filled with sorrow, but Xia Ling on the other hand was completely different. Xia Ling was filled with sunshine, she was innocent and always smiling sweetly.

She had gone through a rebirth.

Everything was exactly like it was in her dreams.

It was wonderful.

…

West Palace.

Fan Men arrived outside, lifting his hand to knock on the door. Soon, a calm voice came from inside. “Come in.”

Fan Men pushed the door open and stepped inside.

The bright sun rays shone through the window and Lu Yeming stood tall, lowering his eyes as he buttoned up his black suit.

Even his side profile was charming and completely flawless, his custom-made suit was perfectly ironed without a single crease as he was surrounded by the gleaming sun rays. He exuded a dignified aura, just like an expensive painting.

“Master, it’s time to go to the Palace,” Fan Men reminded him.

Lu Yeming lifted his head, walking over. “Hm, let’s go.”

Stepping out of the room, a maid ran over hurriedly. “Master, bad news. Miss Ye is not feeling well all of a sudden and she can’t come with you to enter the Palace.”

Lu Yeming furrowed his brows.

“Master, the original plan was for Miss Ye to accompany you to enter the Palace, but now that she’s not feeling well, what should we do?” Fan Men asked.

Lu Yeming’s gaze riveted on Fan Men, moving his lips without any emotion. “Go and pick up Jun Xiqing.”

Fan Men was stunned, Master was planning to take Jun Xiqing with him to the Palace?

This was probably the best option now.

The Palace was plagued with danger, Third Miss Jun was intelligent and she would be a good companion to Master.

But…

“Master, you treated her like that yesterday, I’m afraid that she would be vengeful and ruin your visit at the Palace.” Fan Men voiced out his concerns.

Lu Yeming went downstairs. “Never mind.”

…

In the luxurious car.

Jun Xiqing sat in the back with Lu Yeming beside her. She didn’t look at him, turning her head sideways to look out of the window.

Today, Jun Xiqing wore a white mesh dress, a white cape outside as her satiny hair was let down. She wore a white face veil, revealing her lustrous eyes and though her face was covered, she was still an ethereal beauty.

Beside her, Lu Yeming wore a black suit, a white handkerchief tucked in the front pocket of his suit. His hair was slicked back, revealing his stunning features and his charisma.

Fan Men glanced at them through the rearview mirror, he somehow felt the two were really compatible, just like… some kind of fated destiny they could never escape from.
