Chapter 9: An extraordinary but notorious officer 2
Having no idea what Gu Ye had on his mind at all, Ji Wujin was curious about the weird vibe in the room. Curiosity can kill the cat!
Ji Wujin sworn that she would just have one single look to see what was going on! Just one look!
When she raised her head, she was completely stunned. What is wrong with this white wall? For all these times she stood toward a wrong direction?
With a quick look around the room, she caught a pair of black shining eyes.
The eyes were sparkling with coldness. They were seductive like starry sky and inviting as if they were drawing people into them.
It only lasted barely a second. But Ji Wujin blushed because of the eye contact. She lowered her head again because of shyness.
Gu Ye was confused.
He saw a pair of big almond-shaped eyes which were round open because of being shocked. And for that moment, the innocence in that clear and clean eyes captured his heart.
Somewhere deep inside was warmed as if an unknown seed was dropped into his heart, grew roots, sprouted, or somewhere forgotten or abandoned got back into his senses all of sudden.
He was confused. What was it in those crystal-clear eyes?
“Who are you…”
Ji Wujin’s legs quivered violently. Oh no! Did he already know?
The look she was panicked once again touched Gu Ye’s heart.
“Well, you dare not look at me after only half a month?”
Ji Wujin struggled to calm herself down, forced herself to raise her head and looked directly at the elf-like face with wide open eyes.
The red table set the man off to his advantage. Hua Wujiao’s master had a face that the world could be crazy for.
People always said that Gu Ye was the best-looking and most charming man in the city. But looking at the man in front of her, Ji Wujing would say: wrong!
With a smile on his lips, arrogance in that pair of sharp eyes, he was exceptionally imposing, condescending and extraordinary!
Out of control, Ji Wujin’s mouth was pulled wide backward. She just had that silly smile on her face and almost drooling while she was looking at Gu Ye.
It was not bad to have a master like him.
Gu Ye managed to come back to senses by looking away from that pair of eyes. He saw a woman’s face with heavy makeup and of course Ji Wujin’s silly smile. Gu Ye went back to the ice cold him. How come he was amazed by such a vulgar woman? It must be a joke!
“I am asking you.” He was not patient.
“Huh?”
“Why didn’t you look at me just now?”
“Huh?”
Gu Ye got outraged and Ji Wujin lowered her head quickly, “I am so sorry! I dare not offend you, master!”
“You are not?” he sneered, “I bet you definitely dare!”
Ji Wujin got goose bumps again and she was too frightened to stand on her feet.
What was wrong with this man? He was smiling just now but all of sudden went angry. Did she do anything wrong?
Gu Ye was actually in a complicated mood now because he had an impulse to strangle her to death whenever he thought his mind went blank because of this woman.
Of course, Ji Wujin didn’t know what Gu Ye had on his mind. All she knew was that this moody officer was arrogant and hard to get along. But he was Hua Wujiao’s master, meaning her master in the future. She had to rely on him in the future. So she had to bear with him, no matter what!
“I hear the business hasn’t been good lately?”
The tense went on for a while. Gu Ye threw the question they had to discuss tonight.
Ji Wujin’s eyes sparkled because of what he said. she was right. This notorious officer was the big boss behind the Xiaoxiang Lou.
She nodded eagerly, “yes, yes, master. The business is not going very well. We barely have food to eat. Girls even complain that they are hungry.”
“Is this how you run business?”
It is none of my business. It’s Hua Wujiao’s fault. No! it’s those ugly women’s fault.
“I apologize for my incompetence. The girls are not talented enough and the food was not enough. Even Qingqing, the only beautiful girl, is too starved to become a little vegetable because we don’t have much to eat.”
“Little vegetable?”
“Like the ones grow in the field. You haven’t seen her. Her face was pale as vegetables in the field.”
Gu Ye was even confused.
“Pale? Like your face?”
“Master, this is face powder.”
Gu Ye nodded in doubts. Obviously, he didn’t buy what she said.
Ji Wujin put on at least five layers of face powders on her face, making her look like a ghost. Thinking of this, Gu Ye loathed himself for being amazed by her just now.
Ji Wujin sighed in mind. This notorious officer didn’t know what ordinary people were going through. Otherwise, he wouldn’t tell such beautiful face powder.
“Like those starving beggars on street. The girls even say their life is even worse than a beggar.”
Come on, Mr. Rich, after all of these I said, can you give some money to your poor procuress?
“Oh.” Gu Ye looked like he finally understood the situation and started to think while he was looking into Ji Wujin’s eyes.
Ji Wujin stood there, expecting for Gu Ye to talk.
For a long time, Gu Ye just adjusted his sitting position and didn’t say a single word.
Sitting there for a long time gave him a sore back. He gave Ji Wujin a glance while he was moving his arm. Their eyes locked, “you just stand there?”
“Huh?”
“Come and massage me.”
Did he just ask her to give him a massage?
Shame on him!
Putting on a smiling face, Ji Wujin walked up forward with a humble attitude, wiped clean her hands, rolled up her sleeve, and reached for Gu Ye’s shoulders.
“How do you like it, master?”
“Mm…” That meant he liked it.
Ji Wujin thought, this is how a corrupt official does! Bureaucracy! Corruption!
Ji Wujin used all her power to give him a massage. But when she ran out of strength, Gu Ye didn’t stop her. He looked like he enjoyed it very much, with eyes closed. But what he said out of blue could kill her, “Hua Wujiao never gave me a massage.”
The worn-out arms froze there. Ji Wujin replied spontaneously, “people change.”
Bang! A loud voice! Before Ji Wujin realized what was happening, the man who was supposed to be sitting in the chair now stood up tall.
“Master…”
“Who are you?” His tone was calm, but the coldness in it froze Ji Wujin. That ice coldness may be as cold as hell!
