The boss is back and she doesn’t pretend to be a fake daughter anymore

Jiang Xuxu stood there, looking at Chu Beihe, his eyes trembling slightly.

The Beiling Stone on his chest was gently pressed against it. Even through the clothes, he could seem to feel a heartbeat from the familiar stone.

She had always known that this stone was special, but she had never imagined that the so-called unique mineral that had never been discovered was actually his heart.

The Pulse Heart Stone, he actually gave her such an important thing.

Whether it is helping her recover her spiritual energy at any time, or helping her absorb and purify the demonic energy in her demon bones.

It turns out it was all him.

Although he chose to conceal his identity as a dragon vein, he has always been protecting her in his own way.

My heart felt like it was gently wrapped by something, warm yet sour.

Jiang Xuxu looked at Chu Beihe in front of him, and it seemed as if he was looking at another Chu Beihe that he was familiar with through the layers of golden light.

For a long while, she suppressed the emotions in her heart. Although she tried to appear calm, her voice was slightly hoarse.

She asked him,

"You're telling me this... because you want to take it back?"

When he said this, there was a nervousness in Jiang Xuxu's eyes that he himself didn't even notice.

From a realistic perspective, if this stone is really the heart stone of the dragon vein, it is only natural for Chu Beihe, as the owner, to want to take back half of the heart that belongs to him.

But secretly, she didn't want to give it to him.

This was something Chu Beihe gave her.

It was also the only proof that she could still feel his presence.

Not as a noble existence like the guardian of the country's dragon vein, but as her, Jiang Xuxu's fiancé Chu Beihe.

Chu Beihe met her eyes, which were clearly trembling but pretending to be calm. When his fingertips touched the Pulse Heart Stone, he seemed to be able to feel her heartbeat through the stone.

In her mind, there was a black and white picture of her, with her eyes alone lighting up.

After a long while, he withdrew his fingertips from the pulse heart stone and said,

"Since it's a gift to you, I have no intention of taking it back."

He says,

"I'm only telling you this because I think I should."

After all, in his memory, there seemed to be a lot of things he hadn't told her.

Originally, he could have kept it to himself. After all, up to now, from the fragmentary memories between him and her, he still couldn't sense any feelings for her.

Or rather...feelings.

But by saying it out loud, she was able to consciously protect herself even when she was faced with a dirty situation alone.

That's good.

Chu Beihe regarded this as a "reminder" to his partner in this evil demon incident, and ignored the subtle, not-so-obvious feeling in his chest.

Jiang Xuxu secretly breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that Chu Beihe had no intention of taking back the Beiling Stone.

The two of them returned to their respective courtyards, each with their own thoughts.

late at night.

Jiang Xuxu sat alone at the head of the bed.

Originally, she had a lot of things to prepare regarding Xiang Xi's matter, as well as the upcoming Xuanmen competition.

But now, she didn't want to do anything.

Sitting at the head of the bed, her mind kept thinking about the scene when Chu Beihe gave her the Beiling Stone, and what Chu Beihe said today about the Pulse Heart Stone.

The more I think about it, the more I feel a dull swelling in my heart.

She couldn't explain the reason for the complicated emotions, she just reached out and gently grasped the Beiling Stone on her chest.

The palm of her hand easily wrapped the black water drop pendant, and Jiang Xuxu held her like that, her body tilted, and she fell on the bed.

Curling up slightly, she held the half of the Heart Stone tightly against her chest, where her heart was beating.

For a long while, in the quiet room, only Jiang Xuxu's aggrieved murmur could be heard.

"Chu Beihe, I miss you."

When will you be able to recover?

……

It was like an unintentional whisper in a dream, so soft that it was almost inaudible, but it seemed to be whispering in your ear.

Chu Beihe suddenly sat up from the bed and subconsciously touched the tip of his ear.

He seemed to hear her voice just now.

He felt a slightly warm and interactive heartbeat from his heart, and an unfamiliar feeling enveloped him.

Chu Beihe turned his head and subconsciously looked out the window.

That is the direction of Jiang Xuxu's courtyard.

The slightly burning feeling on the tip of his ear had not yet subsided, and he was sure that it was Jiang Xuxu who had just spoken.

She was thinking about him.

A strange feeling similar to affection quietly spread in his heart. For the first time, Chu Beihe finally vaguely sensed the feelings that his memory had for Jiang Xuxu.

……

The next day, Jiang Xuxu and Chu Beihe met again and everything was back to normal.

It seemed as if nothing had changed between the two of them, yet it also seemed as if something had subtly changed.

Although it was said yesterday that the demon cubs in the Demon Academy that might be infected by filth would be screened out, the academy also needs time to prepare for holding a preliminary competition within the Demon Academy.

During the preparation time at the academy, Jiang Xuxu and Chu Beihe went to meet the idol monster named Zhou Shiji that Xiang Xi mentioned.

It was only after Jiang Xuxu asked Wenren Baixue that he found out that there were indeed some monsters in the entertainment industry.

After all, the entertainment industry is popular. No matter what happens behind the scenes, at least it looks glamorous in front of people.

Some monsters just like to enjoy being pursued by humans.

Zhou is actually one of them.

According to the demon registration records of the Demon Management Bureau, Zhou's hometown is actually in Donghai. He came to Beijing four years ago and accidentally participated in a boy group training variety show that was popular on the Internet at that time.

With outstanding appearance and unique voice, he quickly attracted a large number of fans and successfully debuted on the day of the group formation, ranking third.

The person who debuted in the same group with him at the same time was Zhang Hequan, the brother who is a fan of Xiang Xi.

Over the past few years, the only ones who have really thrived and whose fame and popularity in the circle remain undiminished are these two and another person who debuted at the same time.

Because of his fame and large number of fans, it is not easy to meet him through normal procedures.

Jiang Xuxu originally planned to ask Gu Jingmo to make some arrangements, after all, he was more familiar with the entertainment industry.

But before she could contact anyone, Chu Beihe had already grabbed her hand, and a familiar figure flashed by.

The next second, the two of them appeared directly in the lounge where Zhou Shiji was.

At that time, Zhou was actually slumped on the sofa in the lounge, listening to his agent whispering in his ear,

“Interact! Interact with your fans!

Don't be so rude! If the host asks you to sing, just sing a few lines and don't ignore him."

The agent's earnest advice went in one ear and out the other, but Zhou just responded with a perfunctory "hmm".

Just when the agent was about to lose his temper at his attitude, Zhou Shi, who was lazily lying on the sofa, seemed to sense something. His expression became serious, and he sat up straight from the sofa almost instantly, looking towards a certain place in the lounge with a tense look.

The agent became nervous because of his sudden behavior.

Amidst the tense and serious expressions of these two people, Jiang Xuxu and Chu Beihe suddenly appeared in the space crack.

The agent's eyes widened violently, and the moment he recognized Jiang Xuxu, he was almost speechless.

"You, you, you are not that Jiang...Jiang Xuxu, Little Master Jiang?!"

Jiang Xuxu nodded to his agent, then looked at Zhou Shiji who was sitting on the sofa, and took out his ID to introduce himself.

"Zhou, right? I'm from the Monster Management Bureau. The main reason I came to see you today is..."

However, before she could finish, Zhou Shidi, who was sitting on the sofa, suddenly jumped up, looking nervous and terrified, and he almost knelt down to her.

"Don't, don't catch me! I'll tell you everything!"
