Regarding the matter of awakening lightning abilities after transformation

"Sister Cheng... was what you said last time true?" Just as they were about to leave the communication range, Qin Kexin suddenly spoke up. Gu Cheng had told her that Zhou Li's death was not an accident, and that at least some people in the upper echelons had expected it.

"..."

“Of course it’s true,” Gu Chengyan replied, mimicking Gu Cheng’s tone.

"I'll treat you to dinner next time we meet!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the communication channel was cut off, and Gu Chengyan and Jiang Xuewei successfully broke through the last sentry post.

The bright moon hung high above the ground, and the fresh, sweet air filled his lungs. Gu Chengyan gasped for breath, and finally collapsed from exhaustion in front of Jiang Xuewei.

Chapter 258, Section 263: *Sobbing* Seeking a sugar daddy/sugar baby.

With her long, curled eyelashes drooping low, Su Wanxi lay languidly in the armchair. The clock on the wall was about to reach six, with only a few minutes left before she had to leave work.

Exhausted after a long day, Su Wanxi sighed, but at least she had managed to close the deal. She tapped her fingers lightly on the glass tabletop.

Gu Cheng had to go on a mission a few days ago, and it had been almost two weeks since then. She was really missing her. She lit up the screen and saw a graceful young girl leaning against a flower bush. She had a smile on her face, and her brown hair was smooth and silky over her shoulders. Behind her was the vast and deep night sky.

"Thud~" The black stiletto heel fell to the ground, revealing her jade-like feet. Su Wanxi stepped on the cushion, hugged her knees, and pressed her cheeks against her legs.

That's the advantage of having a CEO's office. Whether you're taking a nap or slacking off, no one will bother you. It's Su Wanxi's private space.

Relax your back and lean forward; the smooth surface of the stockings feels wonderfully comfortable against your skin, so comfortable that a woman unconsciously curls her lips into a smile.

Su Wanxi plans to submit her resignation to Su Yuanjun once she finishes her current orders. She wants to take Gu Cheng to visit Beidu, such as the Prince Gong's Mansion, the Ming Tombs, and Fragrant Hills Park—just thinking about it makes it seem like there are many places to go.

Of course, there was also the large mansion where she used to live, where there was a century-old locust tree. Su Wanxi remembered that it was already growing there when she was born, with lush branches and leaves. Every summer night, she would sit under it to cool off, enjoying the evening breeze and listening to the chirping of insects. Everything around her felt extremely pleasant.

If Su Wanshan hadn't complained that the watermelon always tasted like onions, this memory might not have been shrouded in a faint mist.

A few minutes later, Su Wanxi put her legs down, put on her high heels, and walked out of the office with her briefcase.

Meanwhile, Gu Cheng sat in the milk tea shop closest to the office building. She wore a hooded sweatshirt, a light pink skirt, and simple canvas shoes. Her pure white short cotton socks, just past her ankles, were neither ostentatious nor overly playful, but perfectly highlighted her youthful charm.

The girl stirred her coffee absentmindedly with a spoon, gazing out the window with a dazed look in her eyes.

Why isn't she out yet... Gu Cheng didn't tell Su Wanxi that she was waiting downstairs. She only knew that the other party got off work at six o'clock every day, and the parking lot was half a street away from the gate. The only way to get there was right opposite this floor-to-ceiling window.

As Gu Cheng sipped her coffee, a beautiful figure in a black uniform came into view. She quickly put on her coat, pushed open the door of the milk tea shop, and headed towards the other person.

Halfway there, Gu Cheng realized she had forgotten something, so she turned back to get the juice she had ordered earlier and hurriedly caught up with Su Wanxi.

Hearing short footsteps behind her, Su Wanxi slowed her pace and turned her head to glance at them.

"Um...I bought juice..."

Whether it was from running all the way or for some other reason, the girl's cheeks were slightly flushed, and her small, delicate fingers were clutching a bag of CoCo milk tea.

"Why did you come here?"

Su Wanxi then turned her body completely around, took the milk tea, and naturally took her lover's other hand, her voice filled with undisguised joy.

"I missed you." Gu Cheng replied directly, her hand tightly clasped behind hers.

It was right at the end of the workday, and Su Wanxi was known as the icy CEO in the company. Gu Cheng's looks were just as good as hers, and the two of them walking side by side quickly attracted a lot of attention, mostly from the company's subordinates.

"Is it okay if they find out?"

Gu Cheng asked Su Wanxi worriedly, but the latter shook her head and said calmly, "It's alright, I'll have my secretary remember you. You can come up directly next time you need to see me."

Gu Cheng's worries were completely unnecessary. Everyone was busy with their own things and had no time to gossip. Even if they did, it would pass after a while.

When Su Wanshan first came to the company, some people spread rumors that he and Su Wanxi were a couple. Later, someone got the news that the two were siblings, and these baseless rumors gradually disappeared.

She and Gu Cheng never hugged or kissed in public; their handshake was a pure and innocent socialist sisterhood.

Entering the underground parking lot, Su Wanxi rolled up the car window, and after confirming that no one was in front of her, she quickly leaned down and gently kissed his lips.

"You haven't contacted me for so long, what's gotten into you?"

Take a sip of the juice, and you'll taste the sweet and sour grape bubbles; Gu Cheng specially added extra sugar.

"With a mission in hand, I can only rely on thinking."

To show her sincerity, Gu Cheng returned a kiss before fastening her seatbelt.

Mmm, it tastes like grapes.

Su Wanxi narrowed her eyes comfortably, revealing her alluring fox-like gaze.

"I remember you said this was the last mission?"

"Mmm." Gu Cheng nodded, her delicate pink lips becoming even more rosy from the moisture.

"From now on, I am a free man."

During Gu Cheng's coma, Gu Chengyan completed the handover of her work. An Zhishui will fulfill her promise to provide intelligence and weapons support. Neither of them mentioned the small conflict underground, which Gu Chengyan only mentioned briefly when leaving the team.

"I would have made the same decision as you... but Gu Cheng wouldn't..."

Jiang Xuewei smiled after hearing this and didn't say anything more. She turned around and handed her a brand new revolver.

"I'm not Su Wanxi, and you're not Gu Cheng, right?"

Coming to her senses, Gu Cheng saw Su Wanxi looking at her intently. She cleared her throat and asked, "What's wrong, Wanwan?"

Su Wanxi reached out and pinched her cheek, asking softly, "Did you put on makeup before you came out?"

Gu Cheng denied it outright, saying that she had only applied some face wash when she washed up in the morning, so how could she have put on makeup?

As lovers who had been intimate, Su Wanxi knew Gu Cheng intimately. She keenly noticed that Gu Cheng had become more beautiful than before, with whiter skin and softer skin, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it; it was a mysterious feeling.

"Maybe I'm mistaken." She couldn't resist the urge to get physical in the car to see if the other person's reaction would still be as adorable as before.

As Su Wanxi pondered this, she turned the key, and the car slowly started moving.

"Let's rest at the place where we changed clothes last time, and then go to the supermarket to buy groceries."

"Don't you live in the suburbs?" Gu Cheng asked her softly, looking at the scenery rushing past the window.

Su Wanxi shook her head and replied, "I've been busy with work lately, so I told my grandfather I wouldn't go back home if it got too late and would stay in the city." Since Gu Cheng was coming over, she was even less inclined to go to the suburbs.

"I'll take a shower when I get home, and then I'll go buy some other things."

It's fine for her to use personal items like teacups and towels, but Su Wanxi prefers them to be in pairs, as it looks more cozy that way.

Gu Cheng pouted mischievously upon hearing this: "Su Wanwan, I never said I was going to stay at your place." Everything was arranged without even asking the person in question what she thought.

Su Wanxi was stunned for a moment, subconsciously recalling the conversation before the other party left, where Gu Cheng complained that she didn't respect her enough, but she quickly discerned the smile in the girl's tone.

It wasn't meant as blame, it was just a joke.

"If you don't come, I'll stay at your place."

While the light was red, Su Wanxi stuck out her tongue and rubbed it against Gu Cheng's shoulder. Gu Cheng's heart melted instantly, and his head started to feel hot and bubbly.

Chapter 259, Section 264: You're Deliberately Seducing Me

The last time she visited was half a month ago. Su Wanxi turned on the living room light and quietly placed the fruit tea on the coffee table.

"Where's your luggage? Why didn't you just bring it with you?"

Su Wanxi hung up her suit jacket on the hanger, then turned around and saw Gu Cheng bending down to change her shoes.

"I left my luggage at the hotel." She only wanted to see Su Wanxi today; moving in together was not part of her plan.

"Should I arrange for someone to pick it up?" Su Wanxi asked her.

Gu Cheng shook her head: "I'll go by myself tomorrow, it's just a small suitcase." Working for An Zhishui required her to frequently change her accommodations, and over time she developed a knack for space management, managing to squeeze several pieces of clothing into a tiny space.

Seeing that she insisted, Su Wanxi stopped talking and changed the subject to dinner.

"Orange, are you hungry?"

Gu Cheng had drunk milk tea and eaten some desserts in the afternoon, so her stomach wasn't empty, but she sensed a strange expectation in Su Wanxi's tone.

"Hmm, I'm a little hungry."

Following on from there, Gu Cheng looked at Su Wanxi with great interest. The latter's pink lips were slightly pursed, and her clear, dark eyes shimmered.

Shedding her strong, career-woman persona from the office, Su Wanxi gently rubbed her fingers, her voice as soft as water: "I'll cook for you~"

Ever since she helped Song Yuling with her cooking, Su Wanxi has taken the time to learn how to cook from online tutorials and practiced diligently in private. While the dishes weren't particularly delicious, they were at least palatable.

Gu Cheng almost thought she had misheard: "Wanwan, you can cook?" She brushed a stray hair behind her ear, her tone full of disbelief.

Upon hearing this, Su Wanxi's pretty face turned cold. She folded her hands and placed them on her knees, replying indifferently, "If you don't want to eat, that's fine. I heard from a friend that a new Western restaurant has opened nearby. Why don't we go and try it tonight?"

Even a fool could tell she was being difficult. Of course, Gu Cheng wouldn't choose to go to a Western restaurant. She moved her body to the other side of the sofa and quietly wrapped her arm around Su Wanxi's waist.

"I don't like Western food. I want to cook for myself every night."

Gu Cheng couldn't help but lean her head on Su Wanxi's shoulder, the pleasant scent of jasmine filling her nostrils.

"Really?" Su Wanxi blinked.

"Really." Gu Cheng said sincerely.

"You're not lying to me?"

"I'm not lying to you." The two of them asked and answered each other like children. Suddenly, Su Wanxi burst out laughing and then leaned over and pressed down on Gu Cheng.

"Give me a kiss and I'll do it for you."

"You, Su Wanwan, how dare you push your luck?" The girl turned her face away coyly, muttering, "Then what about all the meals I cooked for you?"

Su Wanxi thought about it seriously for a while, her fingers lingering on the other person's fair cheek. After a moment, she said softly, "Hmm... how about I kiss you instead?"

Turning Gu Cheng around, the girl's face was delicate and beautiful, like the fiery clouds of an autumn evening illuminated by the setting sun. Su Wanxi gently pressed the pad of her index finger against her lover's lips, the tender touch making her reluctant to let go.

"You've said it so many times yourself, why are you still so nervous?"

Su Wanxi loved watching Gu Cheng's shy demeanor, because it was a beautiful sight that no one else could see, and it belonged only to her.

Gu Cheng remained silent, her increasingly heavy breathing betraying her inner turmoil. The girl reached out and took the initiative to grasp the two soft mounds in front of her.

Su Wanxi let out a soft moan without realizing it and kissed his lips.
