Chapter 881: Chapter 884 She Was Rejected

Maybe it really is like this!

Guo Man truly hoped Xia Liu could return to who he was before, regardless of his past self.

But he definitely wouldn’t have been as cold as he is now, where the chill feels like frost even from a distance, making him unapproachable.

“Xia Liu, do you think there’s a chance for us?”

Guo Man mustered a bit of courage from sowhere and asked him directly.

“I an, is there a possibility?”

Realizing she was being too straightforward, Guo Man quickly clarified.

But instead, her words beca even more blunt.

“Probably not. I’m not a good person.”

Xia Liu’s response was swift and decisive.

He wasn’t a good person.

If Guo Man could understand this, perhaps she wouldn’t feel as gut-wrenchingly hurt later.

“Oh, I was just joking. Don’t take it too seriously. I only said that to lighten your mood since you’re always so serious.”

Guo Man’s smile carried a hint of awkwardness.

Did you know?

She was actually rejected.

Though it wasn’t exactly a confession, the outco still felt like rejection!

From childhood until now, when had she ever been rejected?

She had always been the one turning others down.

But this ti, she was rejected so completely.

“Heh, I understand President Guo’s kind intentions. My Heart State has already improved quite a bit, and I will definitely have my own life in the future. The past will never return—I understand this truth.”

“Oh, it seems I was overthinking. Well then, you go ahead and rest. You’ve been driving all day, you must be tired. Don’t worry about

while you’re ho.”

“Alright, President Guo, you rest early too.”

Xia Liu knew he needed to give Guo Man so space and ti to recover.

Watching that slender figure disappear into the hallway,

Guo Man smiled faintly.

The man Guo Man sets her eyes on, even if he’s made of ice, will eventually lt!

There’s no one she can’t pursue—it all depends on how deeply the effort goes.

Xia Liu, Guo Man has decided to chase you!

A man as exceptional as this can’t possibly be let go.

After enjoying a sweet al, Guo Man also retreated upstairs to rest.

That night was undoubtedly her most peaceful and serene sleep.

Once her goal was set, she already had a plan figured out.

All that was left was effort and ti.

In the early morning, as always, Guo Man woke up early to make breakfast.

Xia Liu finished eating and eagerly praised Aunt Yang.

During this routine, Guo Man also joined Xia Liu in giving complints.

Soday, when the opportunity arises, she’ll make sure Xia Liu knows he’s always been complinting her.

Because of last night’s resolve, Guo Man felt no awkwardness or discomfort chatting with Xia Liu in the car anymore.

Her goal had been clearly defined.

This was her greatest source of confidence.

Xia Liu faintly sensed her intent, and though his heart felt bitter,

he did not reject her—his net was still being cast.

Upon reaching the office, Lante, that rascal, was already there.

He was talking and laughing with Xilu and the others.

Only Lina remained indifferent.

Because she wasn’t chasing wealth—after the Blood List, what she sought was imnse power.

And as the number one rank on the Blood List, the Red Dragon Shadow was naturally her ultimate goal.

Being able to see Xia Liu every day, she had countless things she wanted to say to him.

But she couldn’t summon the courage.

Whenever she thought about Xia Liu’s hidden injuries and the impending arrival of the Treading Snow Without a Trace Movent,

she beca deeply worried.

Afraid that Xia Liu couldn’t withstand it and might die when the ti cos.

At noon, Lina seized the chance and cornered Xia Liu by the restroom door.

“Lina, is there sothing you need from ?”

Xia Liu felt sowhat uneasy—after all, Lina knew all his information.

As long as she leaked it to Guo Man even a little,

he would be exposed.

And before he could uncover any information about the Guo Family, he couldn’t afford exposure.

“Mr. Xia, I don’t know what’s wrong with , but every day I worry about you, terrified that Treading Snow Without a Trace might appear…”

Lina’s words carried multiple anings. She had so much she wanted to convey.

But with limited opportunities, everything had to be said at once.

“There’s no need to worry about that. This ti, Lante brought

so good stuff, so my cultivation should recover a bit.”

With his Divine Sense scanning the surroundings to ensure no one was nearby, Xia Liu leaned in and whispered into Lina’s ear.

“Oh! That’s wonderful news. Congratulations!”

Lina couldn’t help but feel excited.

With Xia Liu’s cultivation recovered, he would undoubtedly have greater assurance when fighting the Treading Snow Without a Trace Movent.

“Actually, within the Heavenly Dao, no one can control fate. If the heavens want

dead, even with restored cultivation, I might still perish. Sotis, it’s all about luck.”

“Hmm, I believe Mr. Xia must have good fortune.”

Lina didn’t fully understand what Xia Liu ant, but she figured that was the right response.

“Mr. Xia, actually there’s sothing I want to…”

At that mont, Lina trailed off, bowing her head, her face shafully flushed, evoking a desire to pamper her.

“Just say it. If it’s sothing I can help with, I’ll do my best.”

“I want to beco your woman, even if just once—I’d be satisfied.”

Those were Lina’s exact words. She knew her ti with Xia Liu was limited, and if she could do it just once before everything unfolded, her trip to Huaxia wouldn’t be in vain!

“Pfft!”

Almost instantly, Xia Liu choked on his own breath.

Yet his blood still flared up.

Lina’s figure and beauty, bathed in her Western lineage, were top-notch.

If there was a first ti, there would surely be a second, perhaps even more.

Such was her allure.

And Xia Liu hadn’t indulged in such pleasures for a long ti.

He truly wanted to agree.

But he could not—not only for the sake of principles but most importantly,

at the corner of his eye, that proud silhouette stood quietly, without making a sound, silently listening to his conversation with Lina.

“Lina, please don’t say things like that. I’m not that kind of person. Besides, I already have soone I like.”

“Is it President Guo?”

Without hesitation, Lina directly asked.

“Maybe. But I can’t agree to your request. If you’re seeking to improve your strength, you can take Xilu and Xima with you during your spare ti, head to the rooftop and give

a call. I’ll design a training regin for you based on your abilities and even teach you my modified military boxing techniques.”

Xia Liu’s answer was both an affirmation and a denial. What he added at the end redirected Lina’s attention entirely.

In truth, Lina’s bold words were purely a way to seek Xia Liu’s guidance.

Guidance to help her improve and elevate her strength.

As the number one rank on the Blood List, the Red Dragon Shadow naturally had the ability.

“Mr. Xia, would that be alright?”

Since she hadn’t made any sacrifices, Lina didn’t feel too confident.

“Of course. Everyone is different. Even though I am a bad man, I still have my principles—I wouldn’t stoop that far.”

“That’s settled then. After lunch tomorrow, I’ll go to the rooftop with Xilu and Xima and call you, Mr. Xia.”

“Alright, I look forward to seeing all of you beco stronger.”
