A black Bentley drove over not far away, parked slowly on the side of the road in the heavy rain, and then sped into the rain, splashing water all the way in the empty street.
The man sitting in the car suddenly gathered a cold and chilling aura around him, his thin lips were pursed tightly, and his face was terrifyingly gloomy.
Even in the car, Wen Mushang could feel the huge gap from clear skies to continuous rain in an instant.
"Second Master, Y Mall headquarters has arrived."
Outside the mall, dozens of people wearing suits and ties were standing in the rain holding umbrellas in two rows, which looked very impressive.
"Welcome to the headquarters for inspection." Li Dong, the head of the headquarters, held an umbrella and a smile he had practiced all day on his face, and bent down to open the car door himself.
Shi Huaijin raised his feet and got out of the car.
"Mr. Shi..." The person in charge had just considered several words in his mind and wanted to say a few words to him. Before he could react, the great god strode towards the mall, anxious all the way.
Jogging, standing on tiptoes to hold an umbrella for him.
Didn't I say that this man is in a good mood today? This...
"Last quarter, the headquarters' sales showed a discontinuous growth compared to other chain stores across the country. Why, are you planning to acquire this store and go it alone?"
Shi Huaijin was sitting in the person in charge's office and glanced at the reports on his desk. The tone of accountability made Li Dong sweat break out on his bare forehead.
"Shi...Mr. Shi, I, I don't dare to have such an idea!" His face suddenly turned pale, and he was covered in cold sweat as he explained hurriedly, unable to speak clearly.
.
"Our headquarter, this quarter, has changed the sales strategy due to the pilot, so sales have been high. We have conducted a risk assessment in accordance with the regulations before we can implement it nationwide." His strong mentality helped him straighten out.
The tongue spoke a complete sentence.
"Pilot?" Shi Huaijin smiled slightly, "What did you try? Is the sales the same as last year because of your changes?"
He is not angry but has a terrifying momentum.
Person in charge: I originally came here to ask for praise, but why did I come here to ask for death...
Li Dong is quite old. He has worked at the headquarters of Y Mall for decades, and now he is so disgraced that he cannot hold his head up after being scolded by his juniors.
When leaving, Wen Mushang gave him a hand and said, "Mr. Shi is in a bad mood today, please forgive me."
Over here, Xichen Bookstore.
After Su Yuxi introduced herself to the man, she slowly chatted happily with him, and even sat down together to enjoy the coffee brewed by the little boy.
Xi Chen, the only close disciple of the original owner’s mother, was extremely talented in piano. He went abroad to study five years ago. Now he has returned from his studies and is a world-renowned pianist.
"Xixi, are you still in school now?" Xi Chen chatted with Su Yuxi like an elder.
"Well, I'm a junior this year."
Xi Chen looked tenderly at the pretty and lovely person in front of him, his eyes full of pity, and his heart was filled with ripples, and he couldn't calm down for a long time.
The master has passed away, but he will be here from now on.
"Brother, does this bookstore belong to you?" Su Yuxi accidentally glanced at a familiar book and asked casually.
"Um."
"Can I take a look?" She put the cup she was holding on the table and looked at him with moist eyes.
"Okay, just go and get whatever you want to see."
Su Yuxi stood up, walked to the bookshelf, and reached out to reach the book she just saw. However, the bookshelf was too high and she couldn't reach it even with her tiptoes.
Just as he was about to put down his hand and move a ladder to the side, his hand was caught by a big hand.
"Which one?" The man's chin rested on her head, and his deep voice was a little hoarse.
Su Yuxi turned her head to look at him, was slightly startled, and followed his gaze back to the bookshelf.
"That one."
She pointed at the fairy tale book with a black cover, expecting him to help her take it down. She wanted to pull her hand away, but instead he held her hand, forcing her to lean on him and tiptoe to reach it.
Su Yuxi took down the book and gave him a dissatisfied look.
"Who is this?" Xi Chen walked over and looked at Shi Huaijin warily.
Shi Huaijin glanced at him, grabbed Su Yuxi who was standing next to her with her long hand, put her arm lazily on her shoulders, and replied lightly: "Her man."
"No... um!"
When she opened it in pain, Huai Jin pinched her waist, glared at him fiercely, and went to the checkout counter to pay.
"Miss, my brother said you don't have to pay." Xi Shi pushed back the bank card Su Yuxi handed him.
Shi Huaijin came over, took out a few RMB with a face value of one hundred from his wallet, threw it on the counter, and said calmly: "She is not young, she is married, she is called aunt."
After saying that, he grabbed Su Yuxi's wrist and walked out.
"Xi Xi!" Xi Chen chased a few steps outside. The car passed by him and splashed him with water as if on purpose.
In the cramped and small space, the depressing atmosphere filled every corner of the car, making people breathless.
The man unbuttoned his cuffs gracefully, rolled up half of his sleeves, and asked calmly: "Boyfriend?"
"I want you to take care of it!" Her tone was harsh and her voice was one level higher than his.
He just chuckled and said, "Miss Su forced me to get the certificate. I don't care, it's legal."
Su Yuxi frowned, why did she force him?
Suddenly, he pulled her whole body over, put one hand around her slender waist, rested his chin on her shoulder, and breathed on her ears, making her shrink.
"do you think so?"
Ding!
[The male protagonist's blackening value is 1, the current total blackening index value is: 100, completion level: 0%, number seventeen, don't give up! 】
Su Yuxi's eyes widened in astonishment, and she was as shocked as if five thunders had struck her. How could this go any higher?!
[Master, based on past experience, I think you should follow his lead.] Xiao Qi suggested.
She was stunned, took a deep breath, grabbed Shi Huaijin's hand on her waist, slowly took it away, turned her head to look into his bottomless eyes, and explained in a low voice: "No
Boyfriend, he is my mother’s apprentice, my senior brother.”
"Senior brother?"
He picked up a lock of her hair with great interest, twisted it around his fingers and played with it. Occasionally it would hurt her, but she just frowned and remained silent.
"Stay away from him."
Looking at her like that, how could she be just a senior brother?
Su Yuxi hummed calmly, took out her hair from his hand, and moved to the car window.
[Master, don’t be sad. You can’t complete the task. The worst thing is that we can go to the Paradise together. I heard it’s fun there!] Xiao Qi noticed that her master was in a bad mood and tried to comfort her.
[Xiaoqi, it’s embarrassing to follow me on this mission, right? 】
She is a Buddhist and not enterprising.
【No, I am very happy with my master.】
Her master does not treat the elf as a tool like other masters, but treats her as a friend, occasionally fighting each other, but always caring.
