A Star Reborn: The Queen's Return

The soft coral fleece wrapped around her comfortably but didn’t make her feel better. She stared at the white snow outside the window, thinking, wondering what Wei Lingnan and Gu Jinxiu were doing now? Were they laughing and cuddling in the hot spring pool?

There was a voice outside the door. It was Jiang Yu. “Yingluo, are you there?”

Xia Yingluo looked back and raised her hands to rub her cheeks, not wanting him to find herself looking sad.

Then she got up and opened the door.

Outside the door, Jiang Yu also stood in a comfortable long bathrobe. He was indeed a big star. His figure was perfect. His slightly open chest revealed faint muscles and was able to make countless little girls blush and scream. But there were too many handsome guys Xia Yingluo had met, and she had already become immune to men. At this time, she just let him into the room without any surprise.

Jiang Yu raised his eyebrows a little. His proud body didn’t attract her attention, which made him feel a little frustrated.

But he quickly suppressed the frustration, entered the room, and put the tray he was carrying on the table. “I’m bored, so I came to you for a drink. I have a glass of lemon-orange juice and a glass of dragon fruit pomegranate juice, which one do you want?” He had done his homework before coming and asked Second Young Master Li Rui to go out for a drink and get instructions that his sister liked healthy food. Li Rui was actually very annoyed that this kid was hitting on his sister while using him, but understood that his sister needed someone to help her out of the shadows. So even if there were millions of reluctances, he still explained all the precautions he could explain and told Jiang Yu everything.

Both were drinks that Xia Yingluo liked.

Xia Yingluo picked up the dragon fruit pomegranate juice and smiled at Jiang Yu. “Thank you.”

Although it was only a polite smile, Jiang Yu was very happy. “You’re welcome. I brought you out to play, so I should take good care of you.”

The two didn’t talk when they met Wei Lingnan in the hot spring area and just chatted aimlessly. After a while, Xia Yingluo said suddenly, “I want to go back tomorrow.”

They had booked a three-day trip here, but it was only the first day.

As for why she suddenly wanted to leave, Jiang Yu was actually very clear. Who would like to watch her ex-boyfriend with his current girlfriend?

Jiang Yu said, “It’s boring at home, let me take you to another place to play. My next show won’t start until the new year, so I’m also idle during this time. Why don’t we go to Switzerland? I heard your second brother said that there was a master’s art exhibition recently, and he would be going there too. We could call a few more friends, it’ll be more lively.”

She probably wouldn’t meet Wei Lingnan if she went abroad.

It may be a good thing to change the environment.

Xia Yingluo said, “Go back first, let me think about it.”

Jiang Yu didn’t want to force nor hurry her, it wouldn’t be good if she started disliking him. Anyway, Li Rui would also be going to the exhibition. At that time, there would still be a chance if Li Rui also helped out.

So, he said, “I’ll take you back tomorrow.”

The itinerary was set, and the two left the room and planned to go to the restaurant for dinner together.

This was the highest-grade guest room area of the entire hot spring hotel. They closed the door and saw that someone in the room diagonally came out. The road to enemies was narrow, and it turned out to be Wei Lingnan. Wei Lingnan held a dinner plate in his hand, which was obviously a meal for two. Xia Yingluo saw that and her face changed slightly, and then she returned to normal.

These days, she had never dared to think deeply about a problem—

How far had Wei Lingnan and Gu Jinxiu developed? Were they... living together?

There was a lingering pain in her heart, and she warned herself not to care just how far they have gotten. She lowered her head and turned.

“Xia Yingluo.” Wei Lingnan called her.

She was slightly stiff and didn’t look back. Beside her, a warm and firm hand held her. It was Jiang Yu.

At the same time, Jiang Yu’s voice also rang. “Wei Lingnan, please don’t harass Yingluo again, she doesn’t want to see you.”

Wei Lingnan narrowed his eyes and looked dangerously at this man who dared to hold Xia Yingluo’s hand. “Who are you?”

“Her boyfriend.” Jiang Yu’s voice was not high, but it was decisive and clear.

Xia Yingluo’s body stiffened again, but she did not refute.

Wei Lingnan looked at her back. It seemed like a storm was brewing in his eyes. The irritability expanded in his heart. Strange. He already had his Ah Luo. Why did he feel the urge to rush forward and tear up the person that was with Xia Yingluo?

“Let’s go.” Xia Yingluo still didn’t turn back and her voice was very light. She held Jiang Yu’s hand and walked towards the other side of the corridor.

Leaving Wei Lingnan alone, his expression gloomy and unpredictable.

Looking down, he glanced at the double tableware in his hand. Gu Jinxiu passed out just after returning to the room from the hot spring. After he poured a lot of energy to rescue her, Gu Jinxiu told him that her heart was damaged and her life was in danger. If he wanted to treat her, he had to...

Wei Lingnan’s expression looked darker.

He was still hesitant in his heart. Although when he was doing the resurrection experiment, he had considered the physical condition of Ah Luo. Therefore, he had intentionally left a backup.

But now, the back-up was swapped with the original resurrected identity, and he couldn’t bear it for a moment...

But this kind of unbearable feeling turned into anger and tyranny at the moment he saw Xia Yingluo and Jiang Yu holding hands.

What was more, Xia Yingluo, since your body was the same as Ah Luo’s, then, let it play its original role...

Xia Yingluo wasn’t interested while having dinner with Jiang Yu. She went to bed early in the morning after returning to the room. When she was half asleep, she didn’t know why she suddenly woke up. There was a starry sky outside the floor-to-ceiling window, and the snow was shining into the room. The light loomed on a handsome and indifferent face of a man, standing quietly beside her bed and looking at her like a ferocious beast hunting.

She was so scared that her heart stopped beating and she almost screamed.

“Wei Lingnan, what are you doing?!” Her brain was blank for several seconds before she recovered her voice and looked at the man in front of her alertly.

Wei Lingnan dragged her off the bed effortlessly. “Sorry, I blame you for having the wrong gene.”

Before Xia Yingluo understood what he meant, she felt a pain in her neck. Her eyes darkened and she passed out.

When she woke up again, she was in a pale laboratory.

It was empty all around, and she was locked to the ground in shackles with both hands and feet. Icy lights were on top of her head, and the whole wall was of transparent glass, and researchers were busy.

She only felt groggy, and her body couldn’t hold half of her strength. Maybe some medicine had been injected, and the blood in her limbs felt like it was boiling.
