After leaving "Quill Pen" and on the way home, Xu Shi was in a good mood.
"I've never seen you so happy."
Gu Yi, who was sitting aside, joked, "Bastard Xu, I feel like you're about to jump up."
"Yes? Maybe."
Xu Shi didn't deny it, "But I can hear something about my mother, and I also know that she is a very powerful person. This is indeed something to be happy about, isn't it?"
Anyway, he knew nothing about it before... Mainly because he had no way to find out. He might only have some vague memories of his infancy, and after his mother passed away, his father always kept silent about her matters. Yes, the strange estrangement between father and son may also have some factors in this aspect.
As for Su Lin? If you ask her, she will definitely tell you everything, but unfortunately she knows very little about it, so there is nothing you can do about it. It is always difficult to make up a story about this kind of thing...
So when he heard his grandpa talk about these things, he would be so excited for a while, and he even had a feeling that it was only now that a certain void in his heart was gradually filled.
In fact, he was still unfinished. If he hadn't had some things to arrange, he might have stayed at the "Quill Pen" and chatted with the old man for a whole day.
"That's right."
Miss Black Rabbit nodded, "From what the old man said, Auntie is indeed a very interesting and perfect person."
"At least I'll have something to think about in the future, right?"
Xu Shi lay back, "I could only see pictures of her before, but I couldn't figure out what she looked like. How can I figure out what I don't know, right?"
"And my dad...I miss him a little bit."
As he spoke, he felt a little melancholy.
Estrangement is estrangement. It is true that the two met three times and had two quarrels when his father was alive. But it is undeniable that Xu Cheng is not bad to him, and there is no strange complex of blaming the child for the death of his wife. At least What is lacking is only spiritual communication, and materially, everything is answered.
Su Lin in the front row was inexplicably emotional when she heard this.
The fact is that the master treats her in the same way as he treats the young master. There is no beating or scolding. Even because of the stiff relationship with the young master, he has more time to talk to her, so she understands this deeply.
In a sense, the master is really a good person, but he is just...not good at expressing himself to the young master?
She smiled helplessly when she thought of the way her master sighed when he mentioned Xu Shi, and what he had entrusted to her in the last few years.
"You know? Some people would describe parents as magical wish-making machines."
Xu Shi closed his eyes and whispered softly, "But they are that kind of stupid wish-making machines. Their abilities may not be very strong, and they are not omnipotent at all. But they will still try their best to find loopholes in order to achieve perfection. Your wish."
My parents in my previous life, and my parents in this life... It's a pity that I can't see them now. Some things need to be cherished only after they are lost.
"oh."
Gu Yi deeply agreed, especially since her feelings may be deeper.
After all, Xu Bastard's parents are still big bosses, but her mother is not. She is just an ordinary person in the city of sin, but she still managed to pull her up by herself... Speaking of which, she and Xu Shi happened to be the other way around. He never knew who his father was. If he asked his mother, she would tell him that he was a heartless bastard.
Thinking about it now, Miss Black Rabbit only feels that her mother is a superman.
"Okay, okay, how about listening to some stories and making you look less like you?"
But she just remembered it a little in her heart. Bastard Xu needed comfort more, so after thinking about it, she came over, held Xu Shi's hand and said, "Didn't the old man also say that I look like aunt? Come on. Come on, mommy loves you...um..."
Before she finished speaking, she met Xu Shi's strange gaze, and then she realized that what she said seemed inappropriate.
"So, you can play games with grandpa, but you should also learn something else, right?"
Xu Shi rolled his eyes at her. With such a good training opportunity, it is remarkable that Miss Black Rabbit has not improved her emotional intelligence at all... Comforting people is not even on the point, but it sounds like she wants to take advantage of him?
But since her intentions were good, he didn't say much and just flicked her forehead.
"Hey, it hurts!"
"Next time you talk nonsense, the pain will come later."
Xu Shi refused to let her get used to him and raised his palm with an expressionless face.
"There will never be a next time. Just go ahead and feel sad. Only ghosts will comfort you."
Gu Yi shrank back and complained in the most cowardly tone.
"Haha, okay, okay."
Xu Shi smiled and said, "I know you don't mean that... Just say something serious. You will probably be busy for a while, so cheer up."
"How to say it specifically?"
Miss Black Rabbit pursed her lips and nodded, but she didn't object.
Although she didn't care much about outside things, she also knew that Xu Shi had some messes to clean up recently.
Then she still said what she said, just do whatever you want her to do.
"After that, I will contact the Audit Bureau and jointly build a security system with them."
Xu Shi said softly, "This matter definitely requires you to come forward as the person in charge of the "Snake Ring". When the time comes, use your expertise to help me focus on a few points that need to be watched out for. "
"...Will the Inspection Bureau agree?"
Before Gu Yi said anything, Su Lin asked first.
On the face of it, it didn't sound like there was anything wrong with it, but when she thought about it carefully, she realized that the impact of this matter was not small... Mainly because of this, the scope that "Snake Ring" could monitor using network means would be wider, radiating to the entire night crime scene. The city is still unknown.
Xu Shi said it lightly, but in fact this was a further encroachment - to be honest, it didn't matter to the city hall and the inspection bureau. How dare they disagree, but other consortiums may not.
When it comes to online methods, everyone used to keep to their own corner and stay on the same page. If the young master really did this, would others think he was overstepping his authority? It has to be taken into consideration anyway.
"Then it depends on whether Director Tang Da can withstand the pressure."
Xu Shi is not worried about this, not to mention his current relationship with Tang Shuang. Putting aside this aspect, I am afraid that the other party also wants to move forward in the current situation. Now that he has this olive branch to offer Come here, don't worry if she doesn't answer.
And, under the subtle operation, "Snake Ring" is currently the leader that suppresses others. Even if this matter is noticed by the remaining consortium, the opposition may not be loud.
In other words, whether they object or not, he has to do this - ambition alone without action is not enough. You can't just do nothing just because you will encounter resistance, right? Sorry, that's not Dong Xu's style.
Su Lin was noncommittal, but she vaguely felt that the young master was more confident than she thought. When did you have such a good relationship with the person from the Inspection Bureau...
As for her worries, there weren't many - the fact was that as someone who had been by Xu Shi's side, she probably knew best what the young master was thinking.
Lin Wenhua and Shen Qin were causing trouble, including the missing Shen He... and even Long Tianding was probably not his main concern.
Xu Shi's real purpose is to use these things to thoroughly clean up the Night Sin City, and other things are nothing more than inducements.
In fact, he was the one driving many things behind the scenes to integrate these restless factors and solve them... Su Lin could even imagine that once these obstacles were gone, the future "Snake Ring" would definitely become the "Refraction" of the past. "There are already some signs of existence at the level of "Tianhe", right?
Thinking like this, she felt only relieved - the child not only grew up, but even grew bigger and bigger.
Gu Yi didn't think about it as much as she did. She focused on another angle.
"The Inspection Bureau and I...were the ones at the reception?"
Stop it!
The fact is that until now, Miss Black Rabbit still has an inexplicable fear of the Inspection Bureau, even if she hides it for a long time.
This is what it means to be a thief with a guilty conscience.
I have heard that some industry seniors have been recruited by the city hall... But the problem seems to be that she has never experienced this step?
So the thought of working with the black hats of the Inspection Bureau still made her a little overwhelmed.
But then I thought about it, it seems that I haven't been exposed until now, so there shouldn't be anything wrong...
Well, well, well, you can do it, Gu Xiaoyi, just stand back!
Secretly cheering himself up, the car happened to stop.
"Well, when you go back, do you want to..."
After calming down, Miss Black Rabbit breathed a long sigh of relief, hugged Xu Shi's arm and whispered.
Needless to say, it was indeed fun to play games with the old man, but there were some things that games could not replace. Of course, she had been thinking about him after not seeing him for so long.
Even if it means meowing like a kitten, right? I felt aggrieved at the time, but it was quite interesting to think about it afterwards...
However, before Xu Shi could respond, the door opened first.
"Oh, brother Xu Shi is back?"
A little head with long white hair poked out and greeted with a smile, "Should I say welcome home...hey?"
Seeing Gu Yi's affectionate behavior towards Xu Shi, Xia Keyan froze on the spot.
"Why?"
Gu Yi also sighed and stared at the white-haired Loli for a long time as if her brain was short-circuited.
Then she blinked.
Then she turned to look at Xu Shi.
"So... I haven't seen you for more than two weeks. Do you even have a child?!"
Miss Black Rabbit came to her senses and made a sound like a groundhog.
…
ten minutes later.
The few people sitting on the sofa finally figured out the cause and effect.
Of course, this is only for Gu Yi and Xia Wuyou. They really didn't know that the other party also lived in Xu Shi's house, especially during this period Gu Yi had been staying at "Quill Pen", and Xiao Hei Rabbit has been living in the basement... It is difficult to find traces of her in this home.
But what's very interesting is that both of them actually know each other's existence. They are both colleagues in the company... Thinking about it this way, Xu Shi is really a bastard, taking advantage of his position to make unspoken rules for female subordinates, right?
The key is to dive in as you go, and even bring it home. The best part is that everyone has to bump into each other, hiss...
"You guys have moved here, how do you feel?"
The person involved was as cheeky as ever. Not only was he not embarrassed by such a scene, but he asked softly and nonchalantly, as if the matter had nothing to do with him.
He has never been secretive in this regard. The world shouldn't be so small. He originally planned to come back and let everyone get familiar with it, but who knew it would turn into such a witty start.
"...Is it okay?"
Xia Wuyou pouted, what else could she say? She originally thought that there was only one Su Lin besides herself, but who knew there was also Gu Yi? This, this, this...
She also deliberately chose a room very close to Xu Shi.
However, she quickly stabilized herself. To be honest, Xia Wuyou was not unprepared for this. How could someone like Xu Shi only treat herself... right? At least in her knowledge, there is at least Director Su.
Thinking about it this way, it seems... the difference between one or two is not that big?
"Then, we will be roommates from now on? Director Gu?"
Thinking of this, she secretly sighed and took the initiative to reach out to Miss Black Rabbit.
"Haha, yes."
Gu Yi shook hands with her slightly stiffly. Her thoughts were actually similar to Xia Wuyou's, so Xu Shi was indeed a big bastard, right? You actually bring others back, huh!
Now she began to regret why she chose a basement in the first place, and she couldn't remember the reasons for making this decision at all.
But it was a pity that Xia Wuyou had already grabbed the good spot, so she felt a little unhappy for no reason.
"Get along well with each other from now on, Team Leader Xia."
Miss Black Rabbit said with a soft smile.
"It's Director Xia."
Xia Wuyou smiled back and mentioned it seemingly casually.
At first glance, the two of them seem to be in harmony, but some things cannot be solved by shaking hands. In fact, they are holding back their feelings...
Xu Shi looked on and wanted to laugh, what is this? Do you declare your sovereignty through your official position? After all, Xia Wuyou didn't really care about what happened to him. He specifically mentioned this to Gu Yi, who was still unaware. It was hard to think of any other meaning.
You are so childish.
Some people have no consciousness of being in a Shura field at all, but watch it with gusto.
After all, think about it on the other hand, in the original work these are Shen He’s wings? Maybe it's the same scene when they get together... It's time to say that you are starting to enjoy the treatment of the protagonist, right?
Hey, isn't this a correction of the world line?
"Brother Xu Shi is a playboy."
Xia Kean sat next to him and handed over a piece of cut watermelon, her tone filled with slight dissatisfaction.
But it's not bad, she is Xia Wuyou's aunt, she must stand up for her niece.
It's not a problem for you to cause damage to the couple's relationship, but it's not the same for others, regardless of whether you came first.
"So, no one cares about this little guy?"
Miss Black Rabbit pointed at the white-haired loli, "What do you know at such a young age? Don't talk nonsense."
"Who is the little one?"
Xia Keyan's eyes widened, "I'm more than enough to be your mother at my age, okay?"
"But you..."
Gu Yi stretched out her hand and made a gesture, her expression full of disdain and sarcasm, almost okay.
It's hard for her to find someone younger than her. Now that she finally has one, why don't she show off herself?
No matter how old you are, you still look small.
She even thought Xia Ke'an was very cute, and it was hard not to like her... "Come on, come on, let me give you a hug?"
Xia Keyan didn't appreciate it and bit her childishly.
"...You are a dog, right?"
Miss Black Rabbit was stunned and immediately fought back.
The two soon got into a fight.
Sometimes I eat melons and watch plays, and I never get tired of it.
Xia Wuyou helplessly held his forehead, wishing he could find a crack in the ground to bury his childish aunt.
Why?
You seem to have forgotten someone, right?
"...I'm going to make dinner."
Director Su, who was watching all this quietly, whispered, but it always sounded like he was gritting his teeth.
Regarding my parents, I feel a little emotional as I write this, mainly because I haven’t been home for several years due to the epidemic. Alas...
Fortunately, I earned a little money from writing this month. I bought a bag for my mother on Mother’s Day. Hohoho.
