Gorgeous Female Tenants

Chapter 570: Chapter 570 Bronze Ring

Before leaving the amusement park, Xu Xiangbei had a question he wanted to clear up, so he called Wind Chime: "Beauty, are you still on the cruise?"

Wind Chime’s crisp and pleasant voice came from the phone: "Yes, I’m now the chief supervisor. Thank you, if it weren’t for your recommendation, I wouldn’t have been able to become the chief supervisor on the Doris."

Xu Xiangbei sounded very relaxed: "Sword Palace, three fierce guys came today, I took care of all of them."

Upon hearing that Sword Palace had sent people, Wind Chime curiously asked: "Who are they, do you know their names and codes?"

Xu Xiangbei replied helplessly: "I only know they are bronze-level assassins, but I don’t know their names or codes."

Mentioning Sword Palace made the atmosphere awkward, and Wind Chime reminded him: "Were they wearing bronze rings?"

Xu Xiangbei squatted in front of the corpse and confirmed: "Yes, they all had rings with a small sword engraved on the middle finger. Those rings look quite valuable, you know."

"Take the ring off and check the back of it."

Xu Xiangbei teased with a laugh: "What’s on the back of the ring? Could it be the Elf Ring Spell?"

He took off the ring from one of the assassins, and there were indeed some small words on the back.

Only under the sunlight could he clearly see the small words inside. Xu Xiangbei read: "What does ’Lower Ninth Rank’ mean?"

"It’s the ninth rank among the lower ninjas, just a minor character. You need to be more careful, they’ll definitely send stronger opponents next time."

"Why don’t they send a top-notch guy to kill me then?"

"Sword Palace is a very hierarchical organization, it’s not allowed to skip levels. Next time, they’ll send an eighth-rank lower ninja to deal with you."

"I just don’t understand how Sword Palace knew about my relationship with David and set me up because of it. They obviously have tabs on my every move. Isn’t that scary?"

Wind Chime comforted Xu Xiangbei: "Don’t you have a saying, ’When the soldiers come, the general responds, when the water comes, the soil covers’? I believe you can deal with Sword Palace. You may be afraid, but you cannot run."

Passing by the amusement park, Xu Xiangbei was in a playful mood and rode a roller coaster. They both had a great time and even bought some snacks to enjoy while strolling around.

Jenny mocked Xu Xiangbei: "You’re so grown up and still like playing in amusement parks."

"No matter how old I am, my childhood memories are still the most beautiful. I’m just revisiting those childhood memories, but once I got on, I realized it’s not as exciting as when I was a kid."

Hearing Xu Xiangbei’s words, Jenny also felt sentimental: "It’s like a delicious dish you loved as a child. It tasted incredibly good back then, but when it’s served in front of you now, you find it’s changed flavor and not as tasty as it was. In fact, the food is the same, it’s our hearts that have changed, losing that childhood innocence."

Casually playing with some fun things, time flew by, and before they knew it, evening had arrived. With apologies, Xu Xiangbei asked Jenny: "Have I kept you too long since playing with me till now?"

Jenny smiled faintly: "If it can bring you joy and let you relive the happiness of childhood, then spending a bit of my time is worth it."

Jenny drove Xu Xiangbei back to the Purple Gold Villa, where he joked: "Officer Jenny, it’s dinnertime. Stay and have a simple meal."

Jenny declined the dinner invitation, quickly driving away: "No, I have matters at the precinct. Goodbye, when I’m free, I’ll treat you to a meal."

Gu Xiangyi saw Xu Xiangbei return and smiled: "Our President Xu, where have you been these past two days? Tomorrow is the premiere of ’Sword Rain Heroic Chronicles’. I have to return to Jiangcheng this afternoon, so I can’t accompany Xin Yan. The challenging task of accompanying her is left to you."

Xu Xiangbei picked up a glass goblet from the coffee table, poured himself a glass of red wine, and reclined on the sofa. After the life-and-death struggle that afternoon, he felt especially exhausted. Being able to lie on the sofa, enjoy a glass of red wine, and chat with someone he likes, that’s true happiness.

With a high and significant mission, he raised his glass, speaking in an incomparably gentle voice: "Join me for a drink. I still want to spend a couple more days with you. Since you’re busy with work, go ahead. I’ll take on the task of accompanying Xin Yan and complete it perfectly."

Xu Xiangbei thought of something: "Where is Lu Xiaomei, taking care of Gu Xinyan is her job task."

Gu Xiangyi shrugged with a smile: "That Big Guy has taken leave to go back to her hometown and won’t be back for three days, so I said the task of accompanying Xin Yan is challenging."

Ding, the elevator rang, and Gu Xinyan came down from upstairs in a wheelchair. Hearing Gu Xiangyi and Xu Xiangbei’s conversation, her face turned slightly red: "Sister, what are you saying? Actually, I can stand up now and don’t need care."

To prove herself, Gu Xinyan stood up from the wheelchair, like a runway model, with a smile on her face, elegantly walking back and forth in the living room before sitting back in the wheelchair.

Due to excitement, Gu Xinyan’s snow-white face showed a faint blush, making her even more shy and adorable, like a water lily that’s more beautiful than ever.

Xu Xiangbei’s gaze rested on Gu Xinyan’s graceful and charming body. After finishing the wine in his cup, he lazily said to Gu Xinyan: "Tomorrow, I’ll take you to the premiere, so you must dress even more beautifully, okay?"

Gu Xiangyi carried her suitcase like a travel-worn flight attendant.

"I’ll drive you to the airport."

"No need, you look so tired. I’ll just take a taxi."

"Ouyang Jiahui and the others aren’t here. If they were, they’d send you to the airport."

"It’s okay, it’s not my first time here. In the future, coming here will become as common as eating a meal, so don’t fuss about it. I’ll just take a taxi. Goodbye."

Before leaving, Gu Xiangyi hugged Xu Xiangbei tightly, feeling a bit of moisture at the corner of her eyes. She wished she could always snuggle in Xu Xiangbei’s warm and solid chest.

The tenderness between lovers makes one linger, but Gu Xiangyi is a strong woman who must pursue her own career, with love trailing behind work.

Xu Xiangbei’s full lips gently pressed against Gu Xiangyi’s red lips, and before they knew it, they were hugging each other again.

On the fourth floor, Gu Xinyan watched them kiss passionately through the glass window, a shy smile on her face, but in her eyes, besides shyness, there was a hint of longing.

Xu Xiangbei saw Gu Xiangyi off to the gate of the community, reluctantly saying: "Take good care of yourself. Xiangyi Group relies on you. Don’t wear yourself out."

Gu Xiangyi got into the taxi, waved at Xu Xiangbei through the window: "Goodbye, call me if you need anything."

Watching Gu Xiangyi’s departing figure, Xu Xiangbei felt a pang of melancholy. This is life; the moon waxes and wanes, and people experience joy and sorrow. Today’s parting is for tomorrow’s reunion.
