Destined with You

As Gu Qingxin approached the door of Beiming Han’s study, the steward, Luode, was coming out. He glanced at her, emotionless, and walked off.

Gu Qingxin knew that Housekeeper Luode didn’t like her, but it didn’t bother her. She wasn’t a currency note, after all – not everyone had to like her.

“How long are you planning to stand around by the door!” Beiming Han’s voice was cold.

At the sound of his voice, Gu Qingxin turned and walked in. Beiming Han was seated behind his desk, his face gave away no feelings, but there was a biting coldness around him.

“Young Master.”

Gu Qingxin stood in front of the desk, her clear eyes refusing to withdraw from his gaze. She didn’t think she had done anything wrong, so there was no need to feel guilty.

“From today, you are my personal maid. You will clean my room, prepare my meals, take care of my routines… and…also take over caregiving duties for the General.”

Beiming Han’s eyes were focused on her slightly pale face. Good, indeed, this girl was not at all frightened by him, a stubborn spark flash in her eyes.

“Young Master.Jt’s nothing more than that, right?” A glint of hope rose in Gu Qingxin’s heart. Could it be that as a maid, she didn’t have to do ‘that’ with him anymore?

Beiming Han let out a cold laugh. This woman certainly had never disappointed him. Yesterday, in order to escape from him, she even proposed sharing the bed with another woman, and today…with that kind of expression again!

“Gu Qingxin, remember your status, also remember our agreement… before you speak or act, consider your mother lying in the hospital!”

Beiming Han’s unchanging voice caused the already pale face of Gu Qingxin to become even more ashen.

On leaving the study, Gu Qingxin ran into Bai Jingqing and Huangfu Ye, who were coming to find Beiming Han. They’d intended to tease Gu Qingxin a bit, but noticing her red eyes and the look of restraint on her face, they swallowed their words.

Moreover, why was she wearing a maid’s outfit?

“Doctor Bai, Young Master Huangfu.” Gu Qingxin took the initiative to greet them.

“Little one, don’t be so formal. Just call me Brother Ye.” Huangfu Ye gave a frivolously smile.

“How can I do that? Doctor Bai, could I ask a favor of you?” Gu Qingxin looked at Bai Jingqing with teary eyes.

“I’ll go first, I have important matters to discuss with my big brother.” Noticing the situation, Huangfu Ye hastened into the study.

“Miss Gu, please feel free to ask.” Bai Jingqing frowned as he looked at the young girl before him. She seemed to have been caught in another round of troubles with his big brother.

“Could you please visit my mother if you have time? You could tell her that I’ve found a job and can’t visit her. Ask her not to worry about me, and to focus on getting better.”

“That…okay, I can help you.”

Bai Jingqing had initially planned to ask Beiming Han for his opinion first. If he gave his consent, only then he would agree.

But looking at her distressed face, he couldn’t bring himself to refuse her.

Although their acquaintance was not that long, they could tell she was a good girl, incredibly dutiful to her mother. However, why couldn’t she figure out how to appease big brother?

She always ended up battered and bruised…

“Thank you, Doctor Bai. I have to get back to work.” Gu Qingxin offered him a sincere thanks, and then headed for the lift.

Bai Jingqing watched her walk away, then shook his head and went into the study. It seemed that he needed to have a talk with his big brother about this little girl..
