Chapter 421: He Becomes an Obsession

Master."Zhuang Ji chuckled as he walked up to Mu Xing, who was compounding medicine. Rolling up his sleeves, he offered to help.This medicine is for my uncle. Mu Xing didn't trust others to handle it...After waking up, Mu Xing tossed and turned until dawn before finally falling asleep.

But soon, he was awakened again by a ring at the door.

She grabbed the white veil and wrapped it haphazardly around her face, then listlessly went to open the door.

The delivery worker stood at the door, kindly reminding her that the cruise ship would dock in two hours.

Mu Xing took the meal and, as she closed the door, suddenly remembered that man from last night.

She was told when she checked in that floors 18 to 20 were private and off-limits, no doubt because of that man.

She couldn't help but be curious about his identity and asked the staff, "Who lives on the nineteenth floor"

Many women have inquired about the big shot on the nineteenth floor. The staff, accustomed to such requests, politely replied, "I'm sorry, ma'am, passenger information is confidential and cannot be disclosed."

Mu Xing didn't ask any further, closing the door.

Two hours later.

The cruise ship honked its horn as it sailed into the harbor and docked.

Mu Xing carried her suitcase down the gangplank, and as she glanced back, she suddenly saw a group of well-trained black-suited bodyguards striding out from another gangplank in the distance.

A tall, black figure was surrounded by people. He wore sunglasses, his profile was thin and sharp with defined lines.

Mu Xing's beautiful eyes narrowed, it was the man from last night.

The desolation from last night was long gone. Now, he emanated an overwhelmingly powerful aura, like a king standing at the peak of the world, looking down upon all beneath him.

Look! It's Master Fu!

"Wow! He is so handsome!"

“...”

A cacophony of astonished voices, speaking in various tongues, filled the air.

Mu Xing stood in the crowd, silently watching the man walk down the gangplank and sink into the car waiting at the port.

The convoy sped away.

She retracted her gaze, taking in the bustling foreign port with a sweep of her eyes. Shefting her suitcase, she stepped into the throng of people...

One year later.

Capital International Airport.

A young girl pushed a suitcase and walked out of the station exit in high heels.

Her brows are like distant mountains, her eyes like dots of ink. Under a graceful nose bridge, a pair of red lips are moist and full.

Her face was delicate and fair, with a touch of makeup.

A deep green cheongsam accentuated her already fair complexion, making it glow. Her long hair was loosely styled behind her head, and pearlescent earrings hung gracefully from her lobes.

Like she stepped out of a painting, alluring and pure, strikingly beautiful.

"Little smoke, here!"

A burst of excited greeting reached Mu Xing's ears. Her gaze gently shifted over, and she saw her senior brother, Jiang Yan, beckoning to her.

Gu Yan, that is her name now.

To evade Qiao Daishan, she deliberately changed her name and surname, rewriting her life story.

During the time right after she escaped, she wore a white veil constantly, afraid he would find her. She wasn't afraid of him, just the trouble.

Joe Tai-shan hadn't shown up yet, and she gradually relaxed, revealing her true self.

Ginger received the suitcase from Mu Xing, “You’re finally here. If you hadn’t come, I would have brought the Four Dragon Fang Zun and sailed across the ocean to find you.”

"If I had known, I should have let you float over here, saving me this trip."

Mu Xing said with a smile.

A year ago, she met Mr. Yang Shengyun, a renowned figure in the antique world, by chance abroad. This sparked her interest in antique appraisal and cultural relic restoration.

At first, she only learned it out of curiosity. However, her natural talent was undeniable. In just three months, she quickly surpassed everyone else and rose to fame. Naturally, she became a part of the circle and earned the title of Yang Lao's most prized disciple.

After that, she followed Lao Yang all over the world.

Until a few days ago, when I received a call from Jiang Yan saying that there was a difficult bronze artifact repair case for her agency, and she needed to come over for help.

However, helping Jiang Yanxiu restore the Sijulong Fangzun is only one reason for this trip to the Imperial City.

Got on the car, Mu Xing said to Jiang Yan: "Si Long Fang Zun, I'll start repairing you tomorrow. You send me to Shengshi Jintan now."

Jiang Yan glanced at Mu Xing, immediately reacting, "You're going to the auction"

Mu Xing nodded.

Tonight, Wang Mo's masterpiece from the Yuan Dynasty, hailed as "the Orchid Pavilion of Paintings," "Yangling Mountain Residence Diagram" will be auctioned at the Shengshi Jintzun Hotel.

Mr. Yang adored Wang Wang's paintings, and she happened to be able to take one as a 60th birthday gift for him.

This is also another reason why she came to the imperial capital.

When we arrived at the hotel, the auction was about to begin.

"Little Smoke, do you really not want me to go with you"

Ginger turned to look at Mu Xing in the passenger seat, his heart filled with worry. Xiaoyan was simply too beautiful; wherever she went, she would inevitably attract swarms of admirers.

"No need, you still have a few things to fix, go busy yourself."

Mu Xing unbuckled her seatbelt and got out of the car.

With nimble fingers, she held a handcrafted embroidered vintage handbag and walked gracefully into the hotel. Her tailored cheongsam hugged her curves perfectly, swaying with every step she took.

Jiang Yan looked increasingly uneasy, but he knew Xiaoyan'er's resolute personality. He could only poke his head out and remind her, "Be careful yourself, and call me when you're done. I'll come pick you up."

Mu Xing didn't turn back, raising her hand to gesture lightly.

Entering the hotel, she took the elevator to the 23rd floor and followed the signs to the auction hall. In the distance, two tall men in black business suits walked past, talking to each other.

Seeing a figure among them, Mu Xing couldn't help but be startled.

It was him!

The man smoking on the nineteenth floor of the cruise ship.

It's been a year, I didn't expect to meet again.

Compared to a year ago, he seemed thinner, his cheekbones sharp as etchings, his skin unnaturally pale. Though tall and straight, his frame was thin.

That aura of his was still undiminished, powerful and intimidating, making people fear him.

Mu Xing only glanced at him briefly before looking away. After that one look in the dead of night a year ago, this man had appeared almost every night in her dreams, entwining with her until death.

Simply toxic!

She never expected to have such a strong obsession with helping him cure his eyes. Now that they've met again, she felt compelled to help him get them fixed.

But that's not important now, the most important thing is to attend the auction right now.

As Mu Xing turned to leave, Fu Lingxiao's footsteps abruptly halted. He turned his head and fixed his empty eyes on the spot where she had just stood.

Shen Yi saw his expression and followed his gaze, but there was no one there.

He immediately realized that Lao Fu had another hallucination.

Bearing a broken body, tormenting myself day and night for three years now, when will it end...

Shen Yi let out a deep sigh in his heart, the man beside him suddenly took hurried steps and left.

"Lao Fu, where are you going!"

Shen Yi inquired as he chased after him, but he heard his cold voice coming from behind, "Don't follow!"

Crimson blood threads spread across the hollow eyes, Fu Lingxiao's chest heaved, his heart constricting relentlessly.

He felt it again, his starlight.

Just as vivid as the hallucinations he had experienced on a cruise ship a year ago, he hadn't had such a realistic hallucination in this whole year. So real that he couldn't help but want to chase after it…
