The Dazzling Princess in Modern Times

Chapter 816: The Princess Rescues Xuan Sheng

Xuan Sheng wanted to open his eyes, but he was afraid it was his hallucination. Rather than being disappointed, it was better to escape. The corner of Xuan Sheng's lips curled up in self-mockery.

How could Xia Wanyuan be here? 

“Xuan Sheng?” The sound is getting clearer. The agitation in his body seemed to have been soothed by this clear voice.

Xuan Sheng finally unwillingly opened his eyes. Xia Wanyuan stood at the door coldly. It was clearly a rainy day and a gray sky, but Xuan Sheng felt Xia Wanyuan's entire body glow.

“Why are you here?” Xuan Sheng hurriedly stood up. He did not care about the wounds on his body. He had beaten Xuan Li badly, but Xuan Li had also caused considerable damage to him.

Xuan Sheng took a few steps towards Xia Wanyuan and suddenly stopped. He lowered his head to look. His supreme clothes had long since become tangled in battle, and there was even a lot of dust.

Xuan Sheng turned around and patted the dust off his clothes, trying to make himself look clean. Then, he turned around and smiled at Xia Wanyuan.

Xia Wanyuan glanced at Xuan Sheng. Even though the dust on his body had been cleaned, the wounds on his arms and neck still made him look extremely disheveled.

“Come out first.” Xia Wanyuan handed the umbrella to Xuan Sheng, then opened it herself and walked out the door.

Xuan Sheng followed with an umbrella. As he walked beside Xia Wanyuan, Xuan Sheng secretly glanced at him.

In the misty rain, Xia Wanyuan wore a loose white sweater. A high collar covered his chin, leaving an extremely soft arch. Rain fell on her hair in the autumn wind, making her look like she was covered in ink.

“We'll save you first.” Sensing that Xuan Sheng was staring at him, Xia Wanyuan turned around.

Xuan Sheng had been detained, and Glory World Corporation was behind him. Jun Shiling had to step in to get the police to release him.

Hearing Xia Wanyuan say “we”, Xuan Sheng's eyes darkened a little, but he still smiled. “Thank you.”

“Mm.” Xia Wanyuan received ‘thank you’.

“I think you're hungry too. There's a noodle shop outside. Go and eat a bowl of noodles first.”

Xia Wanyuan was actually hungry as well. News of Xuan Sheng was everywhere. Even the teachers in the office were discussing it. Xia Wanyuan had heard about this when she returned to the office after class.

The last time she heard Xuan Sheng mention the Glory World Corporation's importance, Xia Wanyuan quickly thought of who added fuel to the fire.

He called Jun Shiling and came to pick her up. As expected, ever since Xuan Sheng was in trouble, no one was willing to help him. He had lost hope of survival.

“Oh,” replied Xuan Sheng and took a step back. He followed Xia Wanyuan and finally boldly set all his sights on her.

It was raining and it was only three in the afternoon. There was no one in the noodle shop except the boss, who was playing around with his legs crossed. Seeing someone coming, the boss hurriedly started busying himself.

“Oke.”

The boss took off the lid, and the heat surged like mist. Xia Wanyuan did not speak, and Xuan Sheng fell silent.

Beef noodles are served quickly. A gentle fragrance instantly filled the tip of his nose. Xia Wanyuan's eyes flickered. Xuan Sheng glanced at Xia Wanyuan's expression, his eyes dyed with a smile.

Boss went to play a game. There was no one outside the tent supported by oil. Autumn wind and cold rain fell quietly on the ground.

In the warehouse, one mouthful of soft soup, chewy noodles, and boiled beef seemed to have swallowed up the entire world.

Xia Wanyuan could not resist the temptation to add another spoonful of chili. It was so spicy that a thin layer of sweat appeared on his forehead, but he ate very well.

Xuan Sheng had really disliked eating for many years. To him, eating was only the carrier of painful memories. No matter how delicious the food was, it was like chewing a candle in his eyes.

However, today, this small bowl of beef noodles seemed to give her the taste for the first time.

He could feel the tender taste of the soup and the scent of its flesh. Xuan Sheng swallowed his saliva. After so many years, he finally had the n*fsu to eat.

Xuan Sheng took his chopsticks and bit him. Then, he took a second and third bite.

In the end, he even imitated Xia Wanyuan and drank some broth mouthfuls.

“What will you do with Glory World Corporation action?” After eating and drinking until he was full, Xia Wanyuan started doing business.

“I want to do it myself. Since they are eager to share my power, I will give it all to them.” Thinking of the people from the Glory World Corporation, a cold light flashed in Xuan Sheng's eyes. A group of old farts who want him to work for them to earn money but are afraid he will have too much power and have an unfair mentality.

“OK, we can work together.” The reason Xuan Sheng was able to get the people from Glory World Corporation to take a detour and not directly knock him down was because Xuan Sheng had a lot of resources. If he worked with Xuan Sheng, he could earn money and help him. Xia Wanyuan felt that it was the best of both worlds.

“Of course we can work together. If Miss Xia is willing, I can be your henchman.” Hearing Xia Wanyuan's words, the coldness in Xuan Sheng's eyes disappeared, and his peach flower-shaped eyes narrowed.

Xia Wanyuan smiled. “It's a waste of talent. I can't afford it.”

Seeing a car coming to pick her up, Xia Wanyuan stood up. “Then I will go first.”

“Mm.” Xuan Sheng stood up and looked at Xia Wanyuan deeply. “Thank you.”

Xia Wanyuan nodded, opened the umbrella, and walked in the rain.
