Xia He has a new life. She no longer has to cook by herself. Because the kitchen in this building has chefs from at least three countries, who can cook dishes from at least eight countries. As long as the cuisine is not too remote and cold, they can cook it.
Come out. According to the standards of ordinary people who love cleanliness, changing the bed sheets every Monday is relatively
She is diligent. Even for a girl like Xia He who loves to be clean, her sheets were changed every three days at most in Baicheng. But it was different here. Not only did she not have to wash her own clothes, but she also changed her sheets as soon as she slept in them. Even if it was just
Take a nap. The servants in the building will take out all the bedding and wash it for her.
Compared with his life in Baicheng, Xia He's life today is more exquisite, even to the point of luxury. Three meals a day are cooked by the chef himself. The variety and richness of the dishes shocked Xia He. Even those who lived in Baicheng were shocked.
The servants she met in the building also treated her with respect, as if she were a queen.
But Xia He didn't like it.
She felt that she had come to a world that did not belong to her. It did not suit her at all.
She does something she doesn't like every day. Even if she does it very well, even a strict old man like Bai Qiu can't fault it. But for Xia He, this is not what she wants.
Life. She felt like her neck was being strangled by a pair of invisible hands. It was as if she was suffocating.
"Second Miss, it's dinner time."
Six o'clock on time.
The servant stood at the door and knocked on the door.
Xia He, who was buried on the desk, slightly raised his eyes that were slightly bloodshot from reading documents for a long time, and said calmly: "Okay. I'll be here in a moment."
The building covers an extremely large area, and there are not many people living there. Except for her and her sister, whom she rarely sees, only Bai Qiu occasionally comes here to check in. The remaining dozens of people are all servants.
The security guards and the cooks who cooked delicious food for them. The house was large but impersonal. It was even as cold as the inner courtyard of a palace. It was chilly to the teeth.
It took three minutes to walk from the study to the dining room. This was only the distance inside the building. If he reached the open space outside the building, it would take Xia He at least half an hour to walk all the way. He may not be able to explore every corner clearly.
.
Big. Luxurious. But cold to the core.
This is Xia He's evaluation of the building he lives in today.
Xia Wushuang has already been waiting in the restaurant. The dining table is a typical Western-style long table. It does not have the warmth of Eastern people when dining, but it is more hygienic. It will never happen that two pairs of chopsticks from different people are tumbling on the same plate.
Xia He came to the restaurant and first greeted Xia Wushuang, who was sitting on a chair waiting quietly. Then he sat on the chair with a forced smile and said: "Sister, actually we don't have to eat Western food every day. Have you tried my cooking?
.How about I do the cooking tomorrow?"
Xia Wushuang put a small piece of steak into his mouth and said, "Okay."
Xia He then relaxed slightly and said, "Sister, what do you want to eat? I can ask the housekeeper to buy the ingredients."
"Anything is fine," Xia Wushuang said. "I'm not picky about food."
"Then I'll be free to express myself." Xia He said with a smile.
She doesn't like her current life. She also rejects Xia Wushuang's arrangements from the bottom of her heart. But she doesn't hate Xia Wushuang at all. Because she knows that compared to everything Xia Wushuang has paid for her father's plan, her so-called sacrifice
It was really nothing to worry about. So he never thought that he was qualified to blame or even hate this sister who had been separated since childhood.
Seeing Xia Wushuang agree at this moment, Xia He's mood improved obviously. She also ate much faster than at noon.
"There is no need to always think about finishing all the work in the shortest time." Xia Wushuang said. "Based on the environment you are in now, your workload is unlimited. Your body comes first, and important work comes second. The second step can be postponed.
Let the people below do it."
Xia He was stunned for a moment, then curiously said: "But all these documents were sent to me."
"Bai Qiu wants you to pick out important tasks. This is also an ability that needs to be exercised." Xia Wushuang said.
Xia He nodded and said, "I understand."
Xia Wushuang didn't seem to care whether Xia He really understood or pretended to understand. Then he said: "When my father was alive, he only spent an hour a day on work. The rest of the time was either playing chess or drinking tea and chatting with friends. I don't ask for it.
You quickly acquired your father's abilities. But as long as you have strong working ability like your father, your life will be much better than you imagined."
Hearing this, Xia He felt a slight suddenness in his heart: "If my work ability becomes stronger, can I give myself a holiday occasionally?"
"Of course." Xia Wushuang said. "You work for yourself, not for anyone else. As long as you think that the work at hand does not need to be done personally for a short period of time and can be managed remotely, then your time will be free. You
You can go anywhere in the world. No one can control you."
A strong hope arose in Xia He's heart. He nodded heavily and said, "I understand."
Xia Wushuang stopped talking and buried herself in eating this dinner, which might not suit her taste.
For a woman who lives on the edge of life and death all year round, catering is not something she cares about. Even at certain times, not starving to death is already an extremely happy thing. So even though Xia Wushuang is now a
One of the richest women in the world. But for her, material comfort has never been a thing worth pursuing.
The two of them were having dinner peacefully, but a rather urgent voice came from the door.
Bai Qiu strode into the restaurant. He moved to Xia Wushuang and said, "Miss, someone wants to see you."
"Who?" Xia Wushuang asked without raising his head.
"Di Lin." Bai Qiu said nervously.
"Let him in." Xia Wushuang's eyes lit up.
"But he-"
"It's okay." Xia Wushuang shook his head.
But he is a powerful person who breaks the sky?
A powerful person who breaks the sky may be an extremely rare status among the older generation. But among the younger generation, it is really not that powerful.
Di Lin is, Shang Suxin is, Chu He is, and she, Xia Wushuang, is too.
A sky-shattering strong man missing an arm. Is it really worth making people nervous?
Seeing that Xia Wushuang was so determined, Bai Qiu stopped talking and went out to invite the current leader of the Shenhui.
"Is the person who wants to see you our enemy all along?" Xia He asked curiously.
Dilin.
This name is no stranger to Xia He today. She knows that for a long time, her father and Di Lin's father have been in an absolutely hostile relationship. And according to her sister, hatred can be inherited.
The hatred of the parents is extremely easy to be transmitted to the next generation, such as them.
"Yeah." Xia Wushuang nodded.
"Can I stay?" Xia He asked.
As usual, when Xia Wushuang meets some extremely important guests, she is not allowed to stay. One is to ensure her safety. The other is that Xia Wushuang believes that Xia He currently does not have the ability to deal with those extremely vicious big shots.
Xia Wushuang glanced at Xia He deeply, and then said after a long time: "Okay."
Today is a very different day for Xia He. Because unlike usual, her sister has not refused any of her requests. This is really a happy thing for Xia He. But when Xia He saw that
She couldn't help but feel a little frightened when she saw Di Lin, who was full of exotic charm but missing an arm.
That's right.
This man in a neat suit and handsome face only has one hand. Xia He has never seen anyone missing an arm or a leg in his life, let alone an extremely handsome man. For any woman, an extremely handsome guy is missing one.
Arms are a very regrettable thing.
"I didn't expect to meet two beauties all at once." Before Di Lin arrived, hearty laughter filled the entire living room. When he came closer, he said enthusiastically, "You two young ladies from the Xia family.
You won’t blame me for disturbing your meal, right?”
"Of course not." Xia He said aloud. "Mr. Di, what do you want to see us for?"
"Of course I don't go to the Three Treasures Palace for anything." Di Lin smiled slightly and said. "As we all know, my father and your father had an irresolvable gap. But what I want to say is that this is the grudge between my father's generation and it should not be done.
It’s all on us. So I think we should turn enemies into friends. Don’t worry about things that have nothing to do with us.”
Di Lin's overture was something neither of them expected. Xia He was stunned on the spot and didn't know how to answer. Xia Wushuang, on the other hand, frowned slightly, looked directly at Di Lin and said, "What next?"
"Then we will become friends and form an alliance." Di Lin changed the subject and said word by word. "Eradicate all enemies!"
