Chapter 544: A Wedding for the Disabled Boss (19)

"Xiao Lin, why is the young lady not at home? Did she go to her shop again?" Shu Shihuan came back from work and did not see Mo Shichu, so he could not help but ask Lin Ruyi.

I don't know why in this life, perhaps because Lin Ruyi was not able to serve as a caregiver and accompany Shu Shihuan in rehabilitation and treatment, to encourage him and accompany him through the low period of his life, the two of them were unable to develop feelings, so until Shu Shihuan completely recovered, they were still an ordinary employment relationship, without a trace of ambiguity.

It was because Mo Shichu could see that there was no romantic relationship between the two of them that she agreed to continue being Shu Shihuan's shield wife, otherwise she would definitely not stay.

Lin Ruyi's cooking skills are very good, and the Shu family pays her a high salary, so she happily continues to stay in the Shu family as her cook, and even has a good relationship with Mo Shichu.

"Master, don't you know? She went to a museum exhibition abroad with her friends." Lin Ruyi said in surprise, "I thought you knew."

"No, she didn't tell me." Shu Shihuan said complainingly. He was so busy at the company that he didn't even have time to eat, but Mo Shichu was so free and easy, traveling around the world, which made him feel very unbalanced.

So he called Mo Shichu to complain: "You are so carefree, traveling around the world, but you don't even think about me, a poor overtime worker! Do you still have a conscience?"

Mo Shichu was having dinner in the hotel after getting off the plane. When he received his call, he couldn't help but roll his eyes and said, "Did I ask you to work overtime? You want to do it yourself. Don't make yourself sound so pitiful. If you want to be free and easy, don't you know how to plan your time?"

Shu Shihuan was choked by what she said. He just wanted to gain her sympathy, but Mo Shichu was the kind of person who could destroy any ambiguous atmosphere in a minute. Shu Shihuan often didn't know how to react.

Just at this moment Little Rose happened to walk past his feet. Shu Shihuan immediately had an idea. He squatted down and grabbed Little Rose with one hand. Little Rose was so scared that it immediately let out a "meow" and screamed.

Shu Shihuan immediately said, "Mo Shichu, listen to this. You left Little Rose at home. It's very unhappy and is now chewing your slippers angrily."

As he spoke, he picked up Little Rose and held her in his arms, trying to stroke her. However, Little Rose had always been at odds with him, so she just wanted to escape, struggling and swearing at her male owner.

When Mo Shichu heard Little Rose's cry, he immediately became anxious: "Why is it crying so miserably? Did you hit it? Why did you hit it? If it wants to chew on the slippers, just let it chew on them. Don't scare it..."

Seeing that she cared more about a cat than herself, Shu Shihuan was immediately displeased and said, "I didn't hit it, don't blame me. It didn't cry so miserably, it was scolding me. The little thing has no respect for elders and forgot how many canned fish I bought for it. It's really heartless, just like you, like mother, like daughter."

Shu Shihuan was indignant. Mo Shichu was relieved when he heard him say that he didn't hit the kitten. He then said, "How can a grown-up like you have the nerve to argue with a cat? Cats are ignorant, but are you also ignorant? Okay, okay, I will bring you a gift this time, okay? Remember to treat Little Rose well and don't bully it!"

Mo Shichu gave repeated instructions before hanging up the phone.

Meanwhile, Shu Shihuan threw his cell phone onto the sofa and grabbed Little Rose with both hands. Little Rose and he really disliked each other. She kept trying to grab him with her claws, breathing on him and meowing, obviously wanting to curse and fight with him.

Although Shu Shihuan was not a good person, he was not a perverted sadist after all. He just played with Little Rose for a while, grabbed it unconvinced, and complained to it about how irresponsible Mo Shichu was for abandoning them, the "father and son", and running out to play by himself...

Mo Shichu had no idea that Shu Shihuan was so dramatic. She went abroad with two friends, but she didn't expect to come at the wrong time. She encountered the people of Country F taking to the streets for a march. Suddenly, a conflict broke out while they were marching. All of a sudden, anti-explosion shields, tear gas, and even Makikura were used, injuring or killing several people.

Mo Shichu and two friends were drinking coffee in a street shop when they were unfortunately implicated. Bullets pierced the window of the coffee shop, shattering the glass and scattering fragments. There were also noisy voices and crackling sounds of wood outside, which scared everyone in the shop so much that they screamed and ran around.

Mo Shichu decisively grabbed his two friends and hid them in the corner. He then quickly overturned a table and dragged it to the corner, blocking the three of them, temporarily forming a relatively safe triangular hiding area.

"Shichu, what should we do? Will those people break in?" Lin Feifei, one of Mo Shichu's friends, asked in a low voice, trembling all over, her fingers tightly grasping Mo Shichu's arm, in panic.

"No, don't be afraid. We are not those people's target. They don't have time to pay attention to us..." Mo Shichu comforted Lin Feifei, but in fact she herself didn't know whether anyone would break in. Now she could only pray that they would not be too unlucky.

Another friend, Chen Huaying, was braver. Although she was also panicked, she managed to stay calm. She handed a fork to each of Mo Shichu and Lin Feifei and said, "Use it for self-defense!"

A fork is used to cut snacks while drinking coffee, so it naturally doesn’t have much killing power, but it is still a “weapon” after all. Holding it always makes people feel more confident than having nothing in their hands.

Mo Shichu did not refuse. Holding the knife and fork, she slowly poked her head out to see if anyone had broken in. However, she did not need to see it with her own eyes, because the shop assistants who did not escape but hid under the tables let out terrified screams, followed by several loud woodcutter sounds, and the screams stopped abruptly.

Mo Shichu was suddenly startled. A criminal really broke in and killed someone.

Lin Feifei was so scared that she dug her nails into Mo Shichu's arm flesh. Her eyes were filled with tears and she covered her mouth tightly with her hands to prevent herself from making any sound.

Chen Huaying was not in much better condition. Her face was pale and her hands holding the knife and fork were shaking.

Mo Shichu felt a sharp pain from being pinched by Lin Feifei's nails, but the pain made her mind clearer and calmer. She listened attentively and heard the footsteps of three people coming towards the corner where they were hiding.

"Hey, let me guess, is there anyone behind the table?" A malicious teasing voice came. Obviously, the three people must know that there is someone hiding behind the table, but they don't plan to release Mu Cang to deal with them immediately. Instead, they plan to play with them like a cat and mouse...

Mo Shichu breathed a sigh of relief. She was not afraid of the newcomers teasing them, but she was afraid that they would open the wooden warehouse without saying a word. After all, being teased meant that she could find a loophole to kill them. If they opened the wooden warehouse directly, then they could only leave it to fate. She could protect herself, but Lin Feifei and Chen Huaying would most likely die.
