Shen Zhizhou, do you dare to decide life and death with one blow?

Shuyi looked at Lili, who was sniffing frantically in front of the camera. She guessed that what was being said in the comments was probably true, so she left a message saying she would message the girl later, and then said goodbye to everyone after the broadcast.

"Do you really have a scar on your body?" Shu Yi asked curiously.

Lili parted the hairs on her back to show them, and also told them about their origin.

It turns out that the scar was left by Lili protecting the girl from being bitten by the fancy mouse in the same cage. After that, the girl only kept Lili as her fancy mouse. If Lili hadn't become a spirit and abandoned its owner to see the outside world, the two of them would probably be living a very sweet life now.

...

The day agreed upon in their private messages arrived, and Lili eagerly awaited it. Unable to hide her excitement at the prospect of being a kept woman, she stomped her feet with joy.

Upon seeing the girl dressed in designer brands that looked somewhat ostentatious, Lili glanced around and then stepped forward to ask, "Are you Lili's owner?"

The girl took off her sunglasses, tossed her curly hair, glanced at Shuyi, and said, "I'm not her. She doesn't have time, so I'm here to pick her up for her."

Shuyi turned to look at Lili, covered her mouth with her hand and asked if it was reliable. Lili tugged at the hair on her ear and thought hard.

This girl is indeed my master's friend, but is my master really that busy that he doesn't even have time to pick me up...?

Seeing Lili's dejected look, Shuyi immediately spoke up to stop her, "I'm sorry, but if the owner hadn't come to pick her up personally, we couldn't give Lili to you here. We have to be responsible for both of us!"

"Hey, what's wrong with you! I already said her owner didn't have time, so I came to pick her up in her place. What's wrong with that? Are you trying to monopolize the traffic this fancy mouse gets, or something else...?"

"I didn't, how could you..."

Shen Zhizhou pulled Shuyi behind him and stepped forward to ease the tension, saying, "I'm sorry, she was just concerned about Lili. Please understand."

The girl sized up Shen Zhizhou, and seeing that he was a handsome man, she generously said she wouldn't hold it against Shuyi. Shen Zhizhou smiled and thanked her before speaking again: "Why don't you have a video call with Lili's owner right now? If it's really inconvenient, you can sign an agreement on our behalf, and we will let you take Lili away."

"An agreement? I think you're the ones who're lying. I'm now completely convinced that you just want the traffic and don't want to return it!"

After saying that, the girl picked up her phone and pointed it at Shen Zhizhou and Shuyi's faces, loudly accusing them of fraud.

"If you keep yelling, I'll have security escort you out. Also, you took photos and videos without my permission, so I have the right to file a lawsuit against you for violating my portrait rights. After all, protecting one's portrait rights is a right that every citizen should have. Of course, I can also assume that you are attracted to my good looks and couldn't help but want to record and enjoy them. There's no way around it, my beauty is undeniable."

Shen Zhizhou leaned against the table, arms crossed, speaking with a formulaic smile, and even winked at the camera.

The girl was caught in a dilemma, unsure whether to berate Shen Zhizhou for misleading the public or to accuse the man in front of her of being too narcissistic. She opened and closed her mouth for a long time before finally shutting up.

Shen Zhizhou knew that there would be no result today, so he gentlemanly gestured for the girl to go back to where she came from. The girl glared at Shen Zhizhou, stomped her high heels angrily, and turned to leave.

But at this moment, Lili jumped up and climbed onto Shuyi's shoulder, wanting Shuyi to stop the girl.

Shuyi asked in shock, "You're going to go with her? Are you crazy?!"

Seeing that Lili was determined to stop the girl, Shuyi frowned and looked at her for a while before sighing and trying to persuade her to stay, "Miss, please wait a moment."

After pouring the girl a glass of water and asking her to sit for a while, the two demons and the human began to communicate and dissuade her in the inner room.

"This girl doesn't even dare to call her master. Can you guarantee your safety if you go back with her? Why don't we wait a little longer? Maybe we can meet your master after we continue our live stream."

Shuyi tried to persuade Lili with kind words, but Lili remained silent, looking down at the floor. Helpless, Shuyi looked at Shen Zhizhou beside her, hoping he could say a few words of advice.

Shen Zhizhou stood with his hands on his hips, watching Lili. Her small figure huddled on the cabinet, silently expressing her determination. Knowing that Lili had made up her mind, he didn't try to persuade her anymore. He just told her that if things didn't go well, she must come back.

After hearing this, Lili finally raised her head and looked at Shen Zhizhou with tears in her eyes. Although she knew that this girl might not be a good person, this was her only chance to see her master again, and she didn't want to let it go.

"Thank you, Boss Shen, thank you, Shuyi. No matter what... I want to take this gamble."

Her owner is a very gentle and kind person, and I imagine her friends are the same.

After agreeing on the terms, they packed Lili's luggage and sent her to the high-speed train. To make Lili more comfortable, Shuyi used her savings to upgrade Lili to a business class seat.

Seeing that even a fancy rat could sit in business class while she could only sit in second class, the girl couldn't help but complain, "This animal is more precious than a human."

"She can make money from live streaming, while you might have to spend money to boost your data and still not be able to get to the top of the rankings. From this perspective, she is indeed much more useful than you."

The girl was speechless with sarcasm in Shen Zhizhou's words, and angrily grabbed her suitcase and turned to leave.

Shuyi felt a little down. "I don't know if Lili will be able to see her master after we get there, or how she'll fare..."

Shen Zhizhou rubbed Shuyi's head to comfort him, "Don't worry, maybe we'll be living good days from now on."

Seeing that Shuyi was still feeling down, Shen Zhizhou suggested that they play some games that only smart people could play.

Shuyi curiously poked her hands and tilted her head, asking, "What kind of game can only smart people play?"

Shen Zhizhou smiled and pulled the people back from the high-speed rail station, then called Sheyang and Ji Yao to join them, and the four of them played mahjong together.

"Five of Bamboo, who wants it?" Ji Yao threw down a card, exuding an aura of dominance.

"I want to pong." She Yang took Ji Yao's five of bamboo and his own cards and placed them aside, then threw down a white tile.

Shen Zhizhou waved his hand, refused, and drew the next card to play.

Shuyi, who only has a vague understanding of the rules, is not very good at playing, but she is very good at drawing special cards. For example, she has just drawn a special card, but she tries to pretend to be profound to hide her lack of skill. In fact, her eyes and ears have given her away.

Shen Zhizhou, sitting to Shu Yi's left, noticed that whenever the mouse drew a good card or a special card, its eyes would suddenly light up, and then it would unconsciously tuck its paws in and start grinding its teeth, its feet would rub against the table in a twisted shape, and its ears would stand up straight.

It would be too boring to have no bets, so Shen Zhizhou's eyes lit up and he started coming up with bad ideas.

"Playing like this is too boring, how about we place some bets?" Shen Zhizhou said with a smile, propping his head up as he looked at the three people around him.

Sheyang, his eyes glued to the cards, knew without even looking up that Shen Zhizhou was up to another bad idea, and immediately refused. Ji Yao, however, asked with a hint of wariness what the stakes were. After all, she was the child she had raised since childhood, and she could tell at a glance that it was all a wicked scheme.

Only the naive and easily fooled Shuyi excitedly cheered, relying on her superb hearing to believe that she would never suffer a loss.

But reality always teaches Shuyi a lesson. After losing three games in a row, Shuyi was so angry that he almost flipped the table.

Ji Yao shook her head at the naive and easily deceived Shu Yi, who kept falling for her tricks. She Yang, on the other hand, was quite curious about her and wanted to see where Shu Yi's bottom line was. She even fanned the flames and instigated a bigger one.

After losing all his savings, Shu Yi finally lost his temper and decided to play a big game to decide his fate.

Shen Zhizhou calmly crossed his hands and looked at Shu Yi with an innocent gaze. "How do you plan to decide life and death in one fell swoop?"

"Let's play this last round. If you lose, you have to pay me back ten times the amount. If I lose, I'll grant you one wish."

Like the serpent tempting Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden, Shen Zhizhou approached, flicking his tongue enticingly, and asked, "Any wish is possible?"

"Yes, anything reasonable is fine." Ji Yao couldn't stop Shu Yi from getting carried away, so she could only silently light a candle for her in her heart.

Poor little Shuyi, you know nothing about Shen Zhizhou's dog, you'll regret it.

She Yang looked up at Shu Yi and Shen Zhizhou, the human and the demon, with great interest. He wanted to see what kind of bond and entanglement would develop between the two.

This sorghum-like weapon was practically perked up like an antenna, searching for every sound and movement, not missing a single detail, determined to stand out in this battle for supremacy.

But the harder you try, the more heartbreaking it becomes. When Shuyang played a seven-card hand, Shuyi glanced at the cards and immediately called for a stop.

"I won! Shen Zhizhou, get ready to pay up, hahahahahahahahaha."

She Yang raised an eyebrow, leaned over, and spread the cards on the table. She looked at Shen Zhizhou with some surprise; he had actually won.

Shen Zhizhou went easy on them? Their relationship really is something else...

Ignoring the gazes of the human and the demon beside him, Shen Zhizhou slowly picked out a single tile from the Shuyi set and placed it on the table, then announced the news of his defeat: "A false alarm, I still win."

Even Ji Yao couldn't help but come over to take a look, and then cast a sympathetic glance at Shu Yi.

She Yang glanced at him without saying a word. Shen Zhizhou was indeed still the same as before, completely unchanged, a pure scoundrel.

Only Shuyi remained on the side, looking incredulous, turning the cards over and over to plead her case. But after seeing the expressions of the human and the demon, Shuyi rolled her eyes and decided to play dead.

Shen Zhizhou precisely caught the feigning fainting Shuyi from behind, his gentle eyes and words were like frost and snow, chilling Shuyi to the bone.

"Then work for me for another 50 years, without pay."

After hearing this, Shu Yi hugged Shen Zhizhou's leg and burst into tears, cursing him for being inhuman and heartless, and wiping her snot and tears all over his pants.

Shen Zhizhou didn't indulge Shuyi, but told her that it would be deducted from her salary. Shuyi cried even harder after hearing this.

She Yangle watched the show from the sidelines, while Ji Yao sat elegantly to the side, munching on melon seeds.

She's still too young. This time she should know how treacherous human nature is and that Shen Zhizhou can't be trusted.

"Want to eat hot pot?" Shen Zhizhou asked, looking down at the sobbing Shuyi.

"Eat!" Shuyi wiped away her tears, her tone firm.

Shu Yi originally thought Shen Zhizhou would take them out for a big meal, and she had already planned to rip them off, but she didn't expect that they would just have hot pot at home. Sure enough, Shen Zhizhou's stinginess has been going on for a long time.

After swallowing the beef roll in her mouth, Shuyi felt that she was already lucky to have something to eat, so why be picky? She happily devoured the food.

Seeing Shuyi stuffing meat into her mouth and never shortchanging herself, Shen Zhizhou picked up a quail egg and put it into Shuyi's bowl.

Shu Yi poked at the quail eggs in her bowl, just about to say, "Shen Zhizhou, you're a decent person, I won't hold it against you," when she saw Shen Zhizhou reveal his signature scheming smile.

"I've been getting work for the demon race for you all this time, shouldn't you settle my wages, Boss Rat..."
