Xia Chujian knew that Zong Ruoan spent New Year's Eve here, but the Special Security Bureau was closed after New Year's Eve. It has been seven or eight days now, and he hasn't returned to the Zong family yet?
"Sister Xia, you can't say that!" Guo Sheng was so frightened by Xia Chujian's words that his face turned pale. "He's the boss of the Special Security Bureau! I installed surveillance for him, but I'm like a mouse chewing a cat. He must be tired of living!"
"You said it yourself. You said he didn't even go home for the New Year... If you hadn't installed surveillance, how would you have known he didn't go home?"
Guo Sheng practically knelt down before her again: "Sister Xia! Actually, it's because I have a buddy who has a small position at Rong's Catering. He said that Colonel Zong has ordered a New Year's set meal with them. From the first to the fifteenth day of the lunar month, they will send him different New Year's food every day..."
Xia Chujian tutted his words: "Does this count as leaking customer privacy? If Colonel Zong knew..."
Guo Sheng slapped himself in the face and cursed himself, "I told you not to talk too much! I told you not to talk nonsense! I told you not to offend Sister Xia!"
Xia Chujian uttered an "ah" and stopped his hand, saying, "You didn't offend me, you offended Colonel Zong."
"Sister Xia, I only said this to you, I haven't said it to anyone else! Please be magnanimous and let me go!" Guo Sheng thumped and really knelt down in front of Xia Chujian again.
Xia Chujian tilted her head, hands behind her back, and said, "Guo Sheng, I'm doing this for your own good. From now on, even if you know about what happened at the Special Security Bureau, you must keep it to yourself. Even if it's your own mother, you can't tell her."
Guo Sheng nodded heavily: "Thank you Sister Xia for your advice! From now on, I belong to Sister Xia! Sister Xia told me to go east, but I didn't dare to go west! She told me to climb up the stairs, but I didn't dare to take the elevator!"
Xia Chujian: “…”
What a mess.
She waved her hands and said, "Alright, alright, why would I need you? Are you handsome? Don't try to imitate others and offer your body to them. No matter how handsome you are, you can't do that. It's called harassment, okay?"
Guo Sheng scratched his head and said, "Sister Xia, you must have misunderstood me. What I meant was that I will be your younger brother from now on!"
"...That's enough. Just remember to give my friend a bigger discount later." Xia Chujian said, just in time to see Ping Qiong coming out of the inner room with a troubled look on his face.
"What's wrong?"
"...The bedroom's orientation isn't very good; it's tilted towards the southwest." Ping Qiong shook her head. "Also, the layout of the room is weird; it doesn't feel right."
Guo Sheng quickly said, "You're quite discerning. Yes, the layout of this house is indeed quite unique, as it's the ground floor, right at the edge. If you're not satisfied with this, I have another apartment upstairs on the 258th floor. It's a three-bedroom apartment facing south, has a flat layout, and is a bit cheaper than this one, though the other party's reserve price is higher."
Xia Chujian asked, "Why is that one bigger and has a better orientation, but is cheaper?"
Guo Sheng's mouth twitched as he said, "That house was once flooded, and the floor was badly damaged. The owner was too lazy to repair it, so he just lowered the price."
Ping Qiong said hurriedly: "Then go and take a look, it won't hurt anything."
Xia Chujian had no objection. It was better to be able to wander around outside than to go back and be forced to do homework by her aunt.
Xia Chujian, Ping Qiong and Guo Sheng went to another elevator in the building and pressed the button.
Because Ping Qiong said she didn't like very fast elevators, Guo Sheng found them an elevator with medium speed that didn't require them to sit on chairs and fasten seat belts.
After waiting for about five minutes, the elevator opened with a ding.
There were two people standing inside. The tall one was wearing a navy blue mid-length coat. The material was unclear, but the tailoring was very fitting. It was obvious that it was not a ready-made coat on the market. He was also wearing a black winter hat with ear protection made of exotic animal fur, but the earmuffs were not put down, but rolled up to the brim, making him look more majestic.
The person next to him was a head shorter than him. He was wearing a slim-fitting long coat in haze blue that reached to his ankles, and you could see his high-heeled boots peeking out from under the coat.
Both of them were wearing self-heating warm masks, so their appearance could not be seen.
But judging from their figures and clothes, everyone knows that this is a man and a woman.
Xia Chujian and Ping Qiong were also wearing self-heating masks that covered most of their faces, so it wasn't too strange.
But the woman's haze blue coat was so beautiful that the two of them took a second look at it.
Xia Chujian and Heping Qiong walked into the elevator calmly.
