So the next second, Xu Shi was made to laugh a little by Xia Wuyou's operation.
He was closing his eyes and concentrating in the car, but when he opened his eyes, he saw her running over in a panic.
"Have you finished chatting? Can I take you back now?"
"Um……"
Xia Wuyou nodded, then took out the inhibitor from the belt of his combat uniform and handed it over stiffly, "Here, here you go."
…
If you change the background to a cherry blossom tree, Xu Shi may think that this is a young girl in love giving herself a Valentine's Day gift.
But that was obviously not the case, so he didn't intend to accept it, "Why give me this? I don't want gifts given to you by others, let alone gifts given to you by men."
"This is my...loyalty."
Xia Wuyou gritted his teeth, obviously dissatisfied with such teasing, but he could only bite the bullet and continue.
"Okay, okay, I recognize your loyalty, Miss Xia Wuyou."
Xu Shi couldn't help laughing when he saw this, but he still didn't accept it, "But it's useless for me to ask for this, why not give it to the doctor? It just helps me save some money."
"...This is what you said."
Xia Wuyou didn't waste any time and put the things back.
She wished she could do this sometime.
Seeing her awkward look, Xu Shi felt more and more that Xia Wuyou looked like a kitten.
Isn't this quite cute?
Xia Wuyou didn't know what Xu Shi was thinking. She just felt that this guy was getting worse and worse, and she subconsciously wanted to keep a distance from him.
"Don't worry, Mr. Xu will take me back. I can just take the subway. I will go to work on time tomorrow, please don't worry."
"No need, I was just about to tell you that I planned to give you a holiday."
Xu Shiman waved his hand nonchalantly, "Just have a good rest for a few days. Your salary will still be paid... Of course, you still have to be on call if there is an emergency."
"real?"
Xia Wuyou wondered if there was something wrong with his ears when he heard the word "holiday" from the mouth of this guy who could eat people without spitting out their bones.
"If you ask me that, I'm going to change my mind." Xu Shi rolled his eyes at her.
"……knew."
Xia Wuyou was afraid that he would really regret it and turn around and run away.
She was thankful not to be with Xu Shi, and she really needed time to digest what had happened in the past few days.
She can also spend more time with her sister-in-law... The fact is that she hasn't had such an opportunity for a long time, and the high pressure at work has exhausted most of her energy.
So she finally turned around and bowed slightly towards Xu Shi.
"Thanks."
It sounds like it comes from the heart.
…
On the way back, thinking of what happened just now, Xu Shi couldn't help but want to laugh.
Of course he would not believe Xia Wuyou's so-called "loyalty". If she could fall to him so easily, then she would not be a heroine.
And he also knew very well that what the other party just did was Xia Keyan's motivation behind his back.
This is obviously a sign of goodwill...Looking at it this way, she is not as simple as she seems.
This guy has serious thoughts... If he really treats her as a harmless lolita, then Director Xu's suggestion is to go back to elementary school first.
However, the other party's attitude could make him less resistant - in fact, from the beginning, Xu Shi's target was not just Xia Wuyou.
His plan was to take both his aunt and nephew as his own, so that they could blossom.
The filter blessing is one thing, but she is also his childhood goddess... Of course, beauty is only part of the reason. What he values more is Xia Keyan's SS-level power that can be called a bug.
"Predict future"
This thing doesn't need to be explained too much, everyone can understand it... If you can have such ability to assist you, you will undoubtedly save a lot of trouble in the future.
Especially since he only knows part of the original plot now, it would be the best thing if he could complete it.
In fact, Xia Kean was responsible for at least 80% of the credit for the heyday of "Refraction" back then.
But on the other hand, the complications brought about by such a heaven-defying ability are also terrifying and visible to the naked eye.
While waiting just now, Xu Shi took the time to look at her medical records.
Muscle atrophy, albinism, neuropathic phantom pain, narcolepsy, organ fibrosis... there are seventeen types in total.
This also caused Xia Keyan to be unable to use her abilities a long time ago - according to Xu Shi's estimation, as she is now, she can't even complete the basic moves.
Otherwise, "Refraction" will not be destroyed easily.
Fortunately, he is not in a hurry about this. Gaining their loyalty is like treating Xia Keyan's illness. It is something Xu Ertu has done.
Now, as long as they can stop having anything to do with Shen He.
Giving Xia Wuyou a holiday was also based on this consideration. Spending more time with Xia Keyan would always have some subtle effects.
Besides, you can't hold this kitten tight all the time, you have to give it some sweetness when appropriate.
Thinking of this, a smile of unknown meaning appeared on Xu Shi's lips.
"Young Master seems very happy?"
Seeing this, Su Lin asked casually.
"Of course...huh? What are you looking at?"
After a while, he came back to his senses and realized that the other party had switched the vehicle to autonomous driving mode, while he was carefully browsing the documents in his hand.
"It's a report from the Engineering Department."
Su Lin replied, "It's about the equipment usage feedback about what happened in the morning...it seems a little unsatisfactory."
"...Elaborate."
When Xu Shi heard this, he raised his eyebrows and leaned forward.
Then his scalp was numbed by the various terms in Su Lin's mouth.
Good guy, I don't understand it at all... but he can still understand the general meaning - many of the equipment currently in use by "Snake Ring" are still at the level of a few years ago and are in urgent need of technological iteration.
"How could this happen? Doesn't the engineering department do anything?"
This immediately made his good mood disappear. "I don't pay them to hear the word 'unsatisfactory'."
"Master, calm down."
Su Lin also sighed, "Actually, two years before the master's death, the development of the engineering department had already stalled to a certain extent."
"If I have to say it...this is a legacy issue."
...It seems so.
When she said this, she suddenly remembered it.
Even if he didn't care about the group before, he still had an impression of this matter.
Dad passed away two years ago. As his health deteriorated, his control over the group gradually became looser.
And the emperor's twilight years will naturally lead to his subordinates having their own evil intentions... Then who will have the heart to do practical things?
Thinking about it this way, it's really not easy for Dad to hand over the power to himself smoothly.
Although the current board of directors is not just his word.
However, this is also something he has been considering recently.
It is said that before fighting against external forces, one must first settle within. Although it is not obvious now, if this problem is not solved, it will inevitably be constrained in the future.
And those old foxes were all slippery... How to deal with them gave him a headache.
"Let's go to the engineering department tomorrow."
He made a decision immediately, just as he didn't have to worry about "Spark" for the time being.
"yes."
"But having said that, I always feel like you know everything, Su Lin?"
An all-rounder, right?
"Because there are people who don't care about these things."
This time, Miss Su Lin made her complaints unabashedly.
...彳庍口巴.
This is what it means to be ignorant and unskilled... Stop scolding, stop scolding.
