âSister, let me ask you a question.â An Rao suddenly approached Xia Wanyuan mysteriously.
âWhat?â Xia Wanyuan raised her eyebrows in confusion.
âAhem, um, whatâs going on between you and CEO Jun? Why didnât the two of you publicize your relationship?â An Rao could not understand why a beauty like Xia Wanyuan, who was also a professor at Qing University, was willing to hide the marriage.
âItâs not time to publicize yet. Weâll talk about it in the future.â
âAre you unwilling or CEO Jun unwilling?â An Rao looked sincere and earnest. âSister, this is such a large manor. I donât know how many little demons want to enter. You have to trap CEO Jun properly. Have you seen the 360 ways to trap a man I sent you?â
Xia Wanyuan was silent. âDo you still want to go on to diamond? If you want to, skip this topic.â
âOkay, okay, okay, I wonât say anymore.â However, An Rao did not give up on the idea of helping Xia Wanyuan.
The two of them ate and played. Soon, it was afternoon. The manager was afraid that An Rao would secretly eat outside and had already called more than ten times.
âIâll get going first. Iâll treat you to a meal next time. I bought some clothes at the fashion week in England a few days ago. Iâll send them to you when I get back.â
âMm,â Xia Wanyuan replied and waved at An Rao.
The moment An Rao returned, she packed up the gifts she had carefully chosen in England and got someone to send them to the manor.
It was the weekend tomorrow. Jun Shiling got off work early and went to the kindergarten to pick Jun Yin up, then sent him to Old Master Jun.
When he returned to the manor, he happened to see the servants holding a delivery bag.
âMadamâs?â Jun Shiling glanced at it and saw Xia Wanyuanâs name on it.
âYes, Young Master. A courier just sent this over. He said that itâs for Madam.â
âGive it to me.â Jun Shiling reached out to take the envelope and entered the main building.
Xia Wanyuan was eating snacks on the sofa. Seeing Jun Shiling return, she reached out habitually. Jun Shiling leaned over and kissed her on the cheek. âThereâs your package with ashes on it. Shall I help you open it?â
Xia Wanyuan didnât think about anything else. She had just ordered a set of design-related materials online these few days. Thinking that the materials had arrived, she nodded.
âOkay, the thing I ordered online should have arrived,â Xia Wanyuan said as she picked up the cola and took a sip.
Jun Shiling tore open the bag and paused.
Xia Wanyuan sensed Jun Shilingâs stiffness and looked at his hand.
âCough, cough, cough.â Xia Wanyuan choked on her cola.
Jun Shiling hurriedly patted her back and helped her breathe. When Xia Wanyuan finally calmed down, he gritted his teeth. âThis is what you ordered?â
In the bag that Jun Shiling was holding in his left hand, a half-black lace was revealed. It was a very light but exquisite bra with intricate patterns.
The brand An Rao had chosen was famous for being âsexyâ. Hence, the set in the bag made one blush just by looking at it.
Jun Shiling imagined what it would look like on Xia Wanyuan and felt a heat rush to his head.
Xia Wanyuan snatched the package and walked upstairs. âI didnât buy it. Donât even think of me wearing it.â
Jun Shiling chased after her and picked her up.
In the end, under Jun Shilingâs coaxing, Xia Wanyuan still wore it.
That night, Jun Shiling was like a fierce beast. He brought Xia Wanyuan up the peak time and time again until the next morning.
At three in the afternoon, Xia Wanyuan finally woke up in a daze. Her WeChat message kept ringing.
Xia Wanyuanâs arm, which was covered in red marks, reached out to take the phone.
Countless messages from An Rao.
âSister, I saw a barbecue restaurant last night that was delicious. Shall I treat you to lunch?â
âWhere are you? Sister, are you still asleep?â
âTsk, tsk, tsk, tsk. Howâs my gift? Hehe, did CEO Jun transform into a wolf or a leopard last night? Sister, let me tell you. Men only like this. Itâll definitely make him unable to stop himself and be loyal.â
âBoohoo, boohoo, boohoo, boohoo. Sister, are you awake? Iâm so bored. I knelt down ten consecutive times.. I need your help.âChapter 502: Chapter 503
Xia Wanyuan sent a speechless expression, then replied with a few words before closing her phone.
An Rao waited for a day and finally received news from Xia Wanyuan.
She clicked on it and it said, âStay in the Golden Bureau.â
An Rao looked up at the sky and sighed. Our sisterhood is fake!! My Goddess of the Night two-piece outfit was simply given away for nothing!!
Just as Xia Wanyuan put down her phone, the bedroom door was pushed open and Jun Shiling walked in with a glass of lemon water.
Xia Wanyuan did not know why Jun Shiling was so energetic. He only let her go after six in the morning. Then, when she was in a daze, she felt Jun Shiling get up from the bed without resting.
âBaby, youâre awake?â The satisfied manâs eyebrows were filled with passion.
Xia Wanyuan sat up. From her neck to her arm, Jun Shilingâs marks were everywhere.
The dark red marks matched Xia Wanyuanâs fair skin, making Jun Shiling, who was already full, feel an impulse.
Xia Wanyuan glanced lazily at Jun Shiling. âPut away your thoughts. Why donât you sleep in the living room downstairs tonight?â
The corners of Jun Shilingâs lips curled up. He sat by the bed and fed Xia Wanyuan water, then got the servants to send food over and patiently coaxed her to finish it.
âI guessed that you would wake up at this time, so I rushed back from the company. Rest for a while more. There are still many things to do in the company, so Iâll go over first.â
Leaning into Jun Shilingâs arms was very comfortable. Xia Wanyuan did not want to move, so she only rubbed Jun Shilingâs chest, tickling his heart.
âIâm going to work?â Jun Shiling said, but his arms around Xia Wanyuan did not move.
âIâm leaving?â Jun Shiling repeated.
Only then did Xia Wanyuan hum softly. Her voice was soft. âI want you to accompany me.â
A victorious smile appeared in Jun Shilingâs eyes.
He had gone to the company to settle everything early in the morning so that he could come back early to accompany Xia Wanyuan.
He especially liked to see Xia Wanyuan rely on him, so he tried to say that he was leaving.
As expected, Xia Wanyuan still could not bear to part with him.
âAlright, then Iâll go and tell Lin Jing about some instructions. Iâll do my work tomorrow. Iâll reluctantly accompany you at home today.â Jun Shiling held back the joy in his voice and tried to appear calm.
At that moment, Lin Jing sent Jun Shiling a message.
âCEO Jun, you werenât around in the afternoon. I placed a few documents on the table first for you to read tomorrow.â
Xia Wanyuan leaned into Jun Shilingâs arms and naturally saw these words.
âPrepare to go to work? Forcefully accompany me?â Xia Wanyuan looked at Jun Shiling. Lin Jing was not someone who acted on his own. If he said that Jun Shiling was going to work tomorrow, then it must be that Jun Shiling had already told him.
ââ¦â Jun Shiling took off his shoes and entered the blanket, hugging her completely. âIâm a little tired yesterday. Sleep with me for a while.â
Xia Wanyuan patted Jun Shilingâs arm speechlessly. He grabbed her and placed her on his chest. âIf you donât want to sleep, do you want to do something else?â
âJun Shiling, sleep with Xiao Bao tonight!â
Seeing that he had angered her, Jun Shiling hurriedly coaxed her. âOkay, okay, okay, I was wrong. Sleep well. I wonât speak anymore.â
The two of them hugged each other and slept until night fell.
After replying to An Raoâs message, Xia Wanyuan switched off her phone.
When she switched on her phone again, she realized that Shen Qian had called her a few times and left a message on WeChat.
It was not easy for the drinks from Bai Xiang to win the lawsuit with Jiayin Group. After they were bought by Xiafeng Group, their sales had been rising recently.
At that moment, someone suddenly complained that their companyâs product had a quality problem.
Once Shen Qian knew about this, he rushed to the scene and reported it to Xia Wanyuan before leaving.
Xia Wanyuan called Shen Qian. âIs it safe to drink?â
âCEO Xia, this matter is more complicated. Iâm at the scene now. Iâll report to you after I negotiate with them.â
âOkay.â Xia Wanyuan was still assured about Shen Qian.
Xia Wanyuan looked at the time. It was eight oâclock at night.
Jun Shiling, who was behind her, had already woken up when Xia Wanyuan called. He rubbed against her neck. âAre you getting up?â
âMm,â Xia Wanyuan replied and sat on the spot consciously, waiting for Jun Shiling to help her put on her clothes.
A smile appeared in Jun Shilingâs eyes. After quickly putting on his clothes, he brought Xia Wanyuanâs clothes for her to wear.
âLetâs go and eat. Iâll take you somewhere after dinner.â
ââ
In Continent F far away, the flames of war raged. Missiles streaked across the sky, and the fire kept smashing into the streets and alleys, causing a commotion.
At the end of the street, a man in a white shirt was squatting on the ground, bandaging the injured childâs wound.
The blood dyed his clothes into a mess, but it could not hide his gentleness.
âHey, letâs go. This place is about to be bombed.â A Chinese voice sounded with the lightness of a young man.
It was rare to see a Chinese in a place filled with foreigners. Xia Yu could not help but remind him.
Wei Zimu looked up and saw a young man in military uniform in front of him. There was actually a hint of familiarity in his eyes.
Just as he was about to speak, he saw a stream of light smash down from afar. âBe careful!â
Just as Wei Zimu finished speaking, the stream of light had already smashed into a place not far away. The huge sound stunned everyone.
âF*ck.â Xia Yu endured the huge explosion and picked up the child in front of Wei Zimu. âLetâs go. This place is about to explode!â
Wei Zimu looked at the streams of light that were about to shoot over and followed Xia Yu..

The cross-country truck drove out for a long time until the sound of explosions slowly disappeared.
âWhatâs your name?â Wei Zimu looked at Xia Yu, who was driving beside him.
âXia Yu.â Xia Yuâs young face had a look of maturity, as he grew up gradually.
Wei Zimu had expected it, as he said, âYouâre Xia Wanyuanâs younger brother?â
Xia Yu stepped on the accelerator and looked at Wei Zimu. âYou know my sister?â
âMm, I do.â Wei Zimu nodded. âYour sister treats you quite well, right?â
âOf course.â Speaking of Xia Wanyuan, Xia Yu raised an eyebrow. âMy sister treats me the best.â
âThatâs good.â Wei Zimu smiled warmly. âThank you for saving me. Put me down at the intersection in front. I still have something on.â
âItâs not safe here.â Xia Yu looked at the scholarly Wei Zimu. âWith your physique, why are you staying in this godforsaken place?â
âI have something on. Just put me down. Please take this child out.â
âAlright.â Xia Yu had a mission. Since the person in front of him insisted, he did not persuade him further and put Wei Zimu down at the intersection.
Xia Yu drove the child away. When the SUV disappeared at the end of the road, a few helicopters flew out from the direction they had just escaped.
âPlease come back with us.â A few strong soldiers with guns alighted from the helicopter.
âGot it.â Wei Zimu looked at the people in front of him in disgust. Even though he was not close, he could smell the thick scent of blood on these people.
The helicopter carried Wei Zimu and quickly disappeared into the sky.
The city in the distance had already been blown up by streams of light. The ground was filled with ruins and smoke rose, covering the land with a hazy veil of darkness like a layer of despair that would never fall.
ââââ
The manor was brightly lit.
Ever since Jun Shiling and Xia Wanyuan communicated their intentions, no one else in the main building served them except when necessary.
Firstly, Uncle Wang thought that the two of them were passionate and needed some private space. Secondly, the sweet atmosphere between the two of them was really unbearable for an old man like him, so he simply brought the others and left the main building.
âI can eat it myself.â
Seeing that Jun Shiling wanted to hug her even when she was peeling prawns, Xia Wanyuan felt that the two of them were really too sticky. She struggled to get up.
âAre you sure you can?â Jun Shiling glanced at Xia Wanyuan suspiciously.
âWhy not?â Xia Wanyuan said and was about to go down when she pulled on something. She gasped and fell back onto Jun Shiling.
A chuckle came from above her head.
Xia Wanyuan could not help but punch Jun Shiling. âStill smiling? Itâs all because of you, liar.â
Every time, he would say it was the last time. Every time, he would go back on his word.
âIsnât it because the clothes you bought online were too alluring? Madam, you seduced me very successfully this time!â
âI already said that I didnât buy that. An Rao bought it,â Xia Wanyuan tried her best to clarify.
âMm, I believe you.â Jun Shiling nodded seriously, but there was a mischievous smile in his eyes.
Xia Wanyuan did not want to continue with this question. âWhy arenât you done peeling? Iâm hungry. Youâre so slow.â
âAlright, alright, here.â Seeing that Xia Wanyuan had lost her temper, not only was Jun Shiling not angry, but he also enjoyed it very much. He hurriedly brought the prawn meat in his hand to her mouth.
God knew how much effort he had used to make Xia Wanyuan lose her cool.
He had soaked in countless gentleness, which made Xia Wanyuan have the temperament of a little girl. And in the world, he was the only one who could see such a âpamperedâ Xia Wanyuan.
After dinner, Jun Shiling led the way out of the house. The fragrance of lotus flowers wafted in the air.
With the light in the garden, Xia Wanyuan saw endless lotus leaves and lotus flowers in front of her. Under the light of the night, they dazzled with a faint luster.
âWhy are there so many lotus flowers?â
âI wanted to bring you here in the morning.â Jun Shiling placed Xia Wanyuan on the swing in the garden. âBut youâve been sleeping, so I didnât call you. Youâll be able to see everything tomorrow morning. Do you like it?â
From the first time Xia Wanyuan moved into the manor and the way she looked at the flowers, Jun Shiling knew that she liked all kinds of beautiful flowers.
It was the time when the lotus flowers in midsummer bloomed. Although there was no large lake in the manor,
However, as the saying goes, money can make the devil go away. Jun Shiling got someone to raise lotus flowers in a high-concentrated flower pot and spent half a day filling the entire manor.
Xia Wanyuan took a deep breath. The fragrance of the lotus leaves wafted over, making her feel extremely good.
The lights in the main building were extinguished, and the lights in the garden were slowly dimmed. His eyes gradually adapted to the darkness, and he looked up at the sky filled with stars.
âDo you want to hear a story?â Jun Shiling hugged Xia Wanyuan from behind. The two of them sat on the swing and looked at the stars.
âYes.â Xia Wanyuan nodded. Jun Shiling picked a mythical story and told it to Xia Wanyuan.
ââ
The next morning, Xia Wanyuan had not gone out to see what the lotus flowers in the courtyard looked like when she saw the picture on WeChat.
âF*ck!!! Is this your house?!! It clearly didnât look like this when I left the day before yesterday!! Is this the world of rich big shots!!â
Early in the morning, the trending topic about âLotus Manorâ exploded with people who had woken up early. An Rao habitually scrolled through Weibo and saw a familiar scene.
If not for the fact that there were only a few luxurious renovations in Beijing, An Rao would not dare to believe that the manor that seemed to have grown out of the lotus sea on this picture was the one she had gone to a few days ago.
ââ¦â Xia Wanyuan clicked on the photo and looked. The photographer should have been standing outside the manor.
From his point of view, the entire manor seemed to have risen from the water. A lotus sea supported it.
âJun Shiling?â Xia Wanyuan called out tentatively as the bathroom door was pushed open.
Xia Wanyuan habitually opened her arms. Jun Shiling walked over and picked her up to put on her clothes.
âIâll go and take a look.â Xia Wanyuan walked to the balcony.
It was dark last night and she could not see clearly. At this moment, she was standing on the balcony and looking down. The lotus leaves that connected to the sky were stretched like waves. Lotus flowers dotted them one after another. At first glance, it was impossible to think that this was a man-made lotus sea.
In her previous life, Xia Wanyuan had also liked lotus flowers, but the Xia Dynasty was located in the inland area of the north and did not grow these.
After she became a government official, there were also subsidiary countries in the south who sent some lotus flowers to the palace. Even if it was just a small vat, it was carefully nurtured and loved by her.
Now, in front of her was an entire patch of lotus flowers that looked like the sea. Xia Wanyuan sighed.
From her expression, Jun Shiling knew that Xia Wanyuan liked this gift very much.
Xia Wanyuan, who had seen countless rare treasures, was shocked by this scene, let alone the netizens.
Everyone was shocked by this godly extravagance. Furthermore, a set of photos of âRose Manorâ a long time ago had been dug out.
Everyone compared it.
Other than flowers, the other buildings were the same.
F*ck!! Everyone was stunned.
Chapter 504: The Princess Posts on Weibo

A few months ago, the photographer had accidentally entered the depths of the plants. The entire manor surrounded by roses shocked everyone.
Other than the flowers, the buildings in this area were completely the same. At a glance, one could tell that it was the former âRose Manorâ.
[ Oh my god⦠I donât understand the joy of rich people. ]
[ Am I the only one whoâs curious if this was planted or piled up by a flower pot? Iâm speechless. Heâs too rich. Goodbye. ]
[ I heard that this is Jun Shilingâs residence⦠Thinking about it this way, itâs normal. After all, heâs so rich, so itâs normal for him to do anything. ]
[ I hope Jun Shiling isnât so insistent in terms of gender. Although Iâm a man, I want to fight for it too. I definitely didnât go for the manor (dog head) ]
Jun Shiling once again occupied the trending topic on Weibo. The official Weibo account of the Jun Corporation was often urged to get Jun Shiling to open Weibo.
At the same time, Jun Shiling111111âs reputation among the fans increased.
As a person who chased after celebrities and had a negative image, because he was overly delusional and unrepentant, he was boycotted by Jun Shiling and Xia Wanyuanâs fans and appeared on the fan blacklist all year round.
Every Weibo post he did would attract ridicule and attacks from fans.
ââââ
Xia Wanyuan lay on the swing and poured some drinks into Master Liuâs new product. Then, she took a picture and posted it on Weibo.
Lotus leaf lotus flowers in the background, and a clear cup with a hint of green. The opening of the cup was like the edge of a lotus leaf, and there was a faintly discernible lotus flower in the cup.
If the color was not adjusted well, such a style would be very ugly. However, with Old Master Liuâs guidance and Xia Wanyuanâs guidance, the color of the cup was bright with a hint of green. After pouring into the beverage, the lotus flower was budding, making it very beautiful.
Originally, Jun Shilingâs âLotus Manorâ was hotly discussed on Weibo. When Xia Wanyuan suddenly posted this Weibo post, everyone was stunned by the shape of the cup. Most people went to the porcelain online shop to place an order after seeing the photo.
Some people also noticed the background of the photo that Xia Wanyuan had posted. It also had lotus flowers that filled the sky.
[⦠Jun Shiling has just gone onto the trending topic, yet you posted such a background. Itâs a little obvious that youâre trying to gain attention⦠]
[ Canât even post the lotus flowers? Why? Is Jun Shiling the spokesperson for the lotus flowers? ]
Even though everyone knew that Xia Wanyuan was Yuan Wanxia, there were many professors in Qing University, but only Jun Shiling could be found in China. In everyoneâs eyes, there was still a huge gap between Xia Wanyuan and Jun Shiling.
The fans and anti-fans began to fight again. After Xia Wanyuan posted on Weibo, she switched off her phone and didnât look at the commotion.
The production team of âMoon As Frostâ had already reached the end of the filming. She had to stay at the production team today and see if there was anything the director needed her to refilm.
When she went to the production team again, everyone looked at her differently.
In the past, when they saw Xia Wanyuan hugging a book that was thicker than a brick on the production team, most people thought that she was putting on an act. In the end, she was really reading it, and it was even a professor at Qing University.
A professor at Qing University!
In the eyes of most ordinary people, someone who could be a professor at the University of Qing must be very knowledgeable. In addition, Xia Wanyuan usually had a good temper, so everyone was more friendly to her.
âWanyuan, youâre here? Congratulations.â Li Heng waved at Xia Wanyuan. âYou still need to film a few more scenes for your stage scene.. Come and film after changing your clothes.â
Chapter 505: Broken Chess
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The scenes to be filmed during the post-recording process were much simpler than the normal filming process. Around ten in the morning, Li Heng gave Xia Wanyuan a break.
Although the weather was a little hot that day, the blue sky and white clouds were endless.
Since Xia Wanyuan had nothing to do, she walked along the moat of the capital. The capital was an old city with many ancient buildings left behind.
As Xia Wanyuan walked, she looked around. Under a large tree in the alley, she saw two old men playing chess.
The two elders seemed to be in a tug-of-war. Xia Wanyuan walked from afar to a place close to them, but she didnât see the two elders move their chess pieces.
Since ancient times, China had a tradition of watching chess. Xia Wanyuan sat beside the two elders and watched the game quietly.
Xia Wanyuan sat on the chair for half an hour. The two elders were still staring at the chessboard seriously without moving a single piece.
Qing University sent Xia Wanyuan a message. Xia Wanyuan took a look and stood up to leave.
âThereâs no solution to this one,â the old men, who were like two sculptures, finally said.
âThen I wonât return the meal I owe you. Hahaha!â The old man opposite him laughed heartily. Clearly, he also felt that there was no way to resolve this chess game.
Only then did the two elders notice Xia Wanyuan, who was sitting beside them. However, Xia Wanyuan looked like a passerby who was taking advantage of the cold under the tree. The two elders did not plan to speak to her. They tidied up their cups and stools.
Before Xia Wanyuan left, she picked up a white piece and placed it on the chessboard before leaving.
When the two elders packed up and prepared to leave,
âOh my god! Look at our game!â
Following his companionâs hand, the old man also saw the game of chess that had been transformed from death into life on the stone table.
âCould it be that girl from just now??â There was shock in the old manâs eyes, but he could not believe it. How could such a young girl do something that even we could not break?
The two elders hurriedly walked to the alley, but they could not find anyone.
âI wonder if itâs a coincidence or if that girl is really capable.â The younger old man looked at the destroyed chessboard again. âWe have to find her. Sheâs a good seedling!â
Xia Wanyuan had long left the alley and sat in Chen Yunâs car.
In her previous life, she had been personally taught skills by a chess expert. In her opinion, the game just now was actually not difficult.
Hence, she felt that these two old people who liked to play chess were just killing their time. She casually helped them and did not take it to heart.
âWanyuan, where are you going now?â
âLetâs go to the apartment.â Xia Wanyuan had to go to Qing University in the afternoon and eat with Jun Shiling.
âOkay.â Chen Yun sent Xia Wanyuan to the apartment and left. Xia Wanyuan went upstairs herself. Just as she stepped out of the elevator, she was hugged by someone.
âSister! I missed you so much!â
An Rao was dressed in a little sling, looking as charming as a little vixen who was about to lie to Tang Seng, but her eyes were confused and cute.
An Rao looked at Xia Wanyuanâs long-sleeved shirt and pants, and her eyes flashed with mischief. âTsk, tsk, tsk. How intense was it? You actually donât even dare to wear short sleeves and shorts.â
ââ¦â Xia Wanyuan pushed An Rao away. âYouâre not going to work?â
âYes, Iâve already gone!â Speaking of this, An Rao was especially angry. âI woke up at four oâclock to film some sunrise with them. I just came back from work. Iâm exhausted.â
Xia Wanyuan opened the door and An Rao followed Xia Wanyuan into the house very naturally.
âSister, why did you remember to stay in the straw house here today?â
Speaking of this, An Raoâs heart ached. She had originally spent a lot of money to buy this high-end house. She had thought that she was at the peak of her life, but when she saw Xia Wanyuanâs house, she immediately felt that this was a straw house.
âCome and have lunch. Iâll be leaving in a while.â
âAlright, what do you want to eat for lunch?â An Rao secretly swallowed a mouthful of saliva. Her manager strictly controlled her diet. Only by following Xia Wanyuan could she have some meat to eat.
However, An Raoâs plan failed.
Not long after, while she was playing with Xia Wanyuan, the door suddenly opened.
Seeing that cold man, An Rao shuddered. No matter how far away she was, An Rao felt that she was about to be frozen into an ice sculpture by the cold aura on Jun Shiling.
An Rao, who had wanted to scrounge a meal of braised pork here a second ago, cowardly found an excuse and slipped away.
What a joke. She was afraid that she would suffer from indigestion if she ate with Jun Shiling.
An Rao was really curious. How could Xia Wanyuan tolerate Jun Shiling being so cold? Wouldnât she feel cold facing an iceberg every day?
Meanwhile, the iceberg in An Raoâs impression was patiently coaxing Xia Wanyuan to eat.. His eyes were filled with gentleness.
