So where did your goodness go?
Gu Yi glared back defiantly, "Does coming to report on work in a bathrobe make you look formal?"
You're still wearing a robe with only one tie... and you even cut off the buttons! You must have come up with this in a rush because you didn't have time to buy more, right? You're really something!
It has to be said that these two are remarkably in sync in some ways, and I even have a slight urge to give each other a thumbs up.
"Personally, I think what I need to report is more important than what you, Manager Xia, have to say."
Miss Black Rabbit forcefully suppressed this strange thought, looked at Xia Wuyou mockingly, and whispered, "Why don't you go back and wait? There's always a priority to things."
"That's hard to say."
Xia Wuyou retorted sharply, "Why isn't it Manager Gu who goes back to wait?"
"...Ha, why don't we just do it together?"
Gu Yi pursed her lips, thought for a moment, and took a step back.
This endless verbal sparring is such a waste of a beautiful night at the door. Wait, if I really do this, then the point of my night raid will be lost... But it seems there's no other way. Things have come to this point, I can't just turn around and go home, can I?
"One, together?"
Xia Wuyou's eyes twitched upon hearing this, clearly not expecting the petite girl in front of her to be so bold. How could such words come out of your mouth...?
The truth is that Xu Shi had made similar jokes before, but she still feels ashamed and can't fully accept it.
"What? If you're scared, then go back first."
Having said that, Miss Black Rabbit decided to go all out, raising her chin and provoking him by saying, "It would be best if this guy left."
"...Let's go together then!"
Xia Wuyou gritted her teeth and reluctantly agreed.
If you back down now, you'll suffer a great loss later!
Moreover, from a certain perspective, she is quite open-minded. Such things are bound to happen in the future, so instead of avoiding them, wouldn't it be better to get familiar with them in advance?
She adopted the same serious attitude she had when working in the field—never backing down!
The two nodded in agreement and tiptoed into the room.
Then.
The most embarrassing thing happened.
Xu Shi was not there.
Where are they?
I'm in your room, where are you?
...
Xu Shi ran away.
While the two girls were still staring at each other in front of his door, he had already called Su Lin and sped up to 180 miles per hour on the highway.
He even drove himself.
"This is not like you."
Sitting in the passenger seat, Su Lin was still a little unaccustomed to it. In fact, when she was with Xu Shi, she was usually the driver... But that didn't stop her from habitually making a few complaints, "Why would you waste such a good night's time racing?"
Doesn't it look like it?
Xu Shi, with one hand on the steering wheel, turned to look at her with a smile. "How come I remember you lying to my dad for me quite a few times before because of this kind of thing?"
"No one else lived in the house back then."
Su Lin pouted, deliberately avoiding his gaze, "Besides, young master, are you really willing to abandon them? I'm afraid some people will be unhappy."
I don't know if others are happy or not, but I can clearly see that you are unhappy.
Xu Shi smiled even more, "Think of it on the bright side, I'm taking you with me when I go out."
"I'm not upset, young master, you're overthinking it."
Director Su is not what she thinks; to be honest, she practically has those three words written all over her face.
But on the other hand, she was actually quite easy to coax, and she was genuinely a little happier after realizing that Xu Shi was right.
"Okay, okay, just take it as my malicious speculation."
Xu Shi shrugged, "Your thoughts are easy to guess, you know... But he didn't have any explicit thoughts. Since you won't admit it, I'll just pretend I don't know either."
The perverse pleasure of some people in keeping others in suspense is clearly revealed at this moment.
The same applies to Gu Yi and Xia Wuyou—maybe it's really as he thinks, at least one of the two girls now sneaks into his room in the middle of the night, and they might even reach an agreement to come together, or maybe even three, though that probability is quite low...
Then let's just wait and see. Let them work things out on their own first, otherwise it'll really be a headache.
However, he wasn't running away; he had more important things to settle as soon as possible.
"Whether you're happy or not, Su Lin, I'll give you a chance to vent later."
As they spoke, the car slowed down.
Su Lin looked up and realized that they had left the territory of Night City and entered the territory of Sin City.
And this direction... is it the Sixth District?
"Young Master, are you looking for Miss Lin Yue?"
She immediately realized what was going on.
"The word 'find' is not quite right."
Xu Shi shook his head. "I'm here to bully her."
Just the two of us?
Su Lin's motherly instincts kicked in instantly, "You didn't contact the combat team at all?"
Of course she knew about Lin Yue's recent developments; the entire Sixth District was now under her control... Even if this was all orchestrated by the young master, shouldn't there still be some precautions? Especially since the young master wasn't the type to be good at fighting...
"Two people... aren't quite enough."
Xu Shi wasn't worried at all. "But three people should be enough, right?"
...
Sin City, District Six.
After finishing a day's work, Lin Yue dragged her tired body toward her residence.
To be honest, being the leader of a region feels completely different from before. The most obvious difference is the exhaustion... Even though we've cleared out Ding Jun's men and stabilized the Sixth District, there's still a lot to do.
