Chapter 130: Hero Saves Beauty? (2)

  Gu Xuejie was very sensitive and heard what Lao Shifu said, although it wasn't very clear. From the moment she entered the door, Gu Xuejie felt that Lao Shifu had some respect for young people, apparently this young man had a certain status. However, why would a young man with status do such things, coming to pick her up to entertain leaders? With ample social experience, Gu Xuejie quickly understood that nowadays young people are all about making progress, Zhu Zongxiang is a big leader, and there are countless people trying to curry favor with him, which isn't unusual at all.

  Gu Xuejie slowly rubbed the soap on her body, not in a hurry at all, and hummed a popular song. Gu Xuejie's singing was still pretty good; otherwise, it would be hard to make a name for herself in the dance hall. But soon she thought of the impending encounter and couldn't help but feel a little sad, and her movements slowed down. In an instant, the image of Xu Shaojie, who had just entered, flashed into Gu Xuejie's mind. If it was her first time, giving it to such a young man wouldn't be bad.

  10 minutes had passed, and Xu Shaojie was getting a bit impatient. He stood up and paced back and forth in the outer room. It was understandable, after all, a young man with a strong temperament like him was waiting outside for a beautiful girl to finish her bath - such an encounter wasn't something that could be found just anywhere. Seeing Xu Shaojie's actions, Laborer Shi couldn't help but speak up.

  "Miss Gu, you haven't finished washing yet, can you hurry up a bit?"

  "What's the hurry? I want to take a good bath and get myself clean."

  Gu Xuejie was smiling complacently inside, and spoke calmly, thinking that the two people outside would definitely wait obediently.

  "Wait here for a moment, Uncle Labour, I'll go first."

  Gu Xuejie heard this and felt something was off. In fact, she had finished washing up a long time ago and was intentionally lingering inside.

  "You dare to leave, if you leave I won't follow you to see Secretary Zhu, let's see how you will be held accountable?"

  After Gu Xuejie spoke out, she regretted it a bit, but soon let it go. It was nothing special, just the way things were. The young people outside would definitely not dare to come in now. Soon, the outside became quiet, without even a whisper. Gu Xuejie couldn't help but feel disdain and contempt. In the end, the people outside still didn't dare to speak up. As long as they reported the leader's name, all problems were solved.

  Gu Xuejie slowly put on her clothes and walked out, when she arrived at the outer room, she saw a shocking scene: The young man who came in with He Labor was pale with shock, his face bloodless, clearly extremely unexpected. The young man stared at her unblinkingly, as if he was looking at a monster.

  "What are you looking at? Hurry up and get ready, I'm leaving."

  Xu Shaojie's emotions were extremely complicated at this moment. The instant Gu Xuejie shouted out that sentence, Xu Shaojie understood what was going on. This kind of thing, he had heard about it before, and Liu Zhihua's situation quickly floated into his mind. However, the object this time was different - it was actually Zhu Zongxiang, the deputy secretary in charge of politics and law. For a moment, Xu Shaojie felt a blank space in his brain. What to do? His first thought was to retreat. In today's society, such things, especially those involving leaders, were all hushed up. Sometimes, getting involved would lead to a very ugly death. Labor Master beside him wasn't doing much better either, with a pale face. He knew some things about the leader, but never thought too much about it and didn't care. He couldn't believe Gu Xuejie actually shouted it out, and Xu Shaojie was still by her side.

  At this moment, after Gu Xuejie came out, Xu Shaojie's mind was still a complete blank.

  "Come on, what are you staring at? Didn't you come to pick me up?"

  Gu Xuejie's wild temper was undoubtedly exposed, and she shouted at Xu Shaojie and Labor Master. Of course, Gu Xuejie also noticed the expressions of the two, secretly amused, saying that there is nothing to be surprised about now, in today's society, those who are in officialdom must be afraid of such things, affecting their own career advancement.

  Xu Shaojie didn't say a word and quietly walked out of the house, ignoring Gu Xuejie and Lao Shi Fu. At this moment, what he was thinking about was still how to stay out of it.

  Things often turn out to be like this, once you know it, wanting to get rid of it is not that easy.

  Xu Shaojie had just walked out, and Gu Xuejie followed closely behind, without even closing the door. Laborer Shi was slowly closing the door from behind, lost in thought.

  "My name is Gu Xuejie, what's yours? Maybe I can put in a good word for you with Secretary Zhu."

  Xu Shaojie felt a wave of dizziness, and to say that this was an insult would not be excessive. The key issue is that Zhu Zongxiang must understand that Xu Shaojie knows about this matter now, and when the time comes, he won't be able to avoid it even if he wants to.

  "No need, I have nothing to do with Secretary Zhu."

  "Hum, don't want to say, I'll find out sooner or later. When the time comes, just ask anyone and they'll know what your name is. You must work in the municipal committee office."

  Xu Shaojie nodded, at this moment, he gradually regained his composure. Whether it was good or bad fortune, misfortune could not be avoided. There was nothing special about such things. What's the use of thinking so much? Taking action when seeing an opportunity was the best choice. However, Xu Shaojie thought more deeply. From Gu Xuejie's attitude, it could be seen that she had a significant prejudice against men. But what could he say? Would Gu Xuejie believe anything else if she encountered such things?

  "Hey handsome guy, will you accompany me? Today is my first time."

  Xu Shaojie stumbled, almost losing his balance, and the sedan was right in front of him. Xu Shaojie couldn't believe that Gu Xuejie had actually done it for the first time. In an instant, Xu Shaojie couldn't articulate his thoughts - what on earth could have led Gu Xuejie to do such a thing?

  Observing expressions was Gu Xuejie's specialty, and it was necessary to have this ability in the song and dance hall. Seeing Xu Shaojie's expression, Gu Xuejie understood some things. She simply took hold of Xu Shaojie's arm, and felt his body stiffen. Labor Master, who was walking behind them, slowed down his pace even more.

  "Miss Gu, this is not good."

  Xu Shaojie really wanted to shake off Gu Xuejie, but couldn't make up his mind. It wasn't because of Gu Xuejie's beauty, but because of what was about to happen to her.

  "What's wrong with you? Are you not a man? Am I not pretty?"

  Xu Shaojie was somewhat infuriated. No man would feel comfortable hearing such words, and Xu Shaojie was originally sensitive to this kind of thing anyway.

  "Miss Gu, don't say that, whether you're pretty or not has nothing to do with me."

  Listening to Xu Shaojie's tone with a hint of annoyance, Gu Xuejie laughed, laughing somewhat unscrupulously.

  "You're scared, what's there to be scared of? I'm most disgusted with men like you. Pretending to be refined, but actually being the same at heart. Just think whatever you want, why pretend to be refined?"

  Xu Shaojie really got angry, he turned his head and spoke to Labor Master.

  "Driver, you go ahead and drive, I'll take this young lady to her destination."

  Having said this, Xu Shaojie felt a little regretful, but it was too late for regrets now.

  "Alright, Director Xue, Miss Gu has arrived at room 808 of the Huaiyang Hotel. There's still over an hour to go; I was originally planning to take Miss Gu to the song and dance hall for some fun."

  Xuejie, who was beside her, trembled slightly when she heard the three words "dance hall".

  Xu Shaojie immediately responded.

  "Alright, let's go to the dance hall and have some fun first, it's not time yet."

  After getting on the car, the light was not good. Gu Xuejie sat beside Xu Shaojie and held his arm tightly, possibly due to her inner tension. Xu Shaojie tried to shake her off several times but couldn't. At this moment, Xu Shaojie didn't have any heroic ideas of saving the beauty. What would happen next, Xu Shaojie had no idea and couldn't grasp it either.

  "I know your surname is Xu now, you have to send me off later."

  Gu Xuejie's words made Xu Shaojie even more annoyed, but he had no choice. At this moment, Xu Shaojie wished that time could be turned back, how could he have encountered such an unlucky thing.

  After entering the song and dance hall, Ma Yaping was leading the singing in a loud voice. Just as they were singing, Xu Shaojie and others entered, immediately changing their expressions. After all, such things couldn't be known to everyone, it wasn't a good thing from the start. Luo Xuan saw Xu Shaojie and immediately went up to greet him, holding a wine glass in his hand, offering a toast to Xu Shaojie.

  After Gu Xuejie came in, everyone noticed, mainly because Gu Xuejie was too beautiful. Luo Xuan knew Gu Xuejie, they were all from the song and dance hall, colleagues had a beautiful sister, Luo Xuan knew about it. However, he heard that Gu Xuejie found a job and didn't work at the song and dance hall anymore. In such a situation, Luo Xuan would not reveal that he knew Gu Xuejie, who knows what relationship Gu Xuejie and Xu Shaojie had?

  Luoxuan knew that Xu Shaojie's singing was very good, so he took the initiative to order a song called "Know Heart Love Person", which meant asking Xu Shaojie and Gu Xuejie to sing together. Seeing this situation, Xu Shaojie felt a bit helpless, and the more such occasions, the more he wanted to pretend that nothing had happened.

  Gu Xuejie's singing was also great, Xu Shaojie and Gu Xuejie's duet shocked everyone in the private room, including several little sisters who were accompanying them to sing.

  Gu Xuejie had already sensed that Xu Shaojie was not simple, from Luo Xuan's attitude, Gu Xuejie could feel it, and Labor Master was always very polite to Xu Shaojie. Gu Xuejie didn't know Xu Shaojie's name or identity, and she wasn't very familiar with the official positions, only knowing that Zhu Zongxiang had great power. Xu Shaojie sang well and looked handsome, in an instant, Gu Xuejie felt inferior, and in front of Xu Shaojie, she actually felt a little self-abased.

  Gu Xuejie's experience is not simple, but it can't be said that she is familiar with society. Due to her special experiences, Gu Xuejie has some hostile feelings towards society, always thinking that there are too many unfair things in this world. Her foster father's death was a catalyst for her hatred. In her eyes, Xu Shaojie is also seen as a despicable man. At this point, Gu Xuejie's psychology is to further provoke Xu Shaojie, satisfying her somewhat abnormal and distorted mentality. Actually, everyone has such psychology, social pressure and unfair phenomena are encountered by most people, some can self-regulate and self-resolve, while others need external help to overcome such psychology. Unfortunately, Gu Xuejie did not encounter such an opportunity.

  "Director Xu, I know you're the boss, haha, take good care of me and I'll definitely put in a good word for you with Secretary Zhu, that's our deal, how about it?"

  Gu Xuejie said these words next to Xu Shaojie's ear, and Xu Shaojie felt stimulated and insulted, but couldn't lose his temper. Ma Yaping and others saw this situation and thought Gu Xuejie had a crush on Xu Shaojie, so they burst out laughing and made many teasing remarks. Labor Master knew the situation, but couldn't speak up.

  Seeing this, Gu Xuejie became even more unscrupulous, holding onto Xu Shaojie's arm and sitting down beside him on the sofa. However, Xu Shaojie was extremely uncomfortable, feeling like he was sitting on pins and needles. The internal conflict made Xu Shaojie want to get rid of Gu Xuejie as soon as possible. In his mind, he thought that Gu Xuejie and Zhu Zongxiang were willing participants, so why should he care about their affairs?

  Seeing Luo Xuan walking over with a wine glass, Xu Shaojie thought of Gu Xuejie beside him and gestured to offer her a toast.

  Gu Xuejie has basically quit drinking because of her experience in the song and dance hall, but today, Gu Xuejie felt a deep sorrow in her heart. From now on, what's the point of quitting drinking if her body can't be preserved? Is there any need to quit drinking anymore?

  Gu Xuejie is a heavy drinker. Generally speaking, girls who have worked in song and dance halls are all heavy drinkers. This is basic training. If you can't drink, you don't know how much loss you will suffer. But it's not good for girls to drink too much, especially when they're young. Often getting drunk causes great harm to the body.

  Looking at Gu Xuejie holding the glass cup and drinking it all in one gulp, Xu Shaojie felt a bit uncomfortable and his impression of Gu Xuejie became even worse. However, Xu Shaojie still took into consideration that Gu Xuejie was a girl, so he spoke out of habit.

  "Miss Gu, drink less wine, it's not good for a girl's body if she drinks too much."

  Xu Shaojie did not expect that this sentence of his would trigger a series of events that followed. After the fact, Xu Shaojie recalled that this was what people usually called fate or something predetermined by heaven, and no matter how you tried to shake it off, you couldn't get rid of it.

  As soon as Xu Shaojie finished speaking, Gu Xuejie's face changed. This was the first time a man had said such things to her. The men before had hated that she didn't immediately get drunk, so they could take advantage of her, and had all tried their best to get her to drink more.
