Pan Feng paused, then changed to a more tactful way of saying it, "I don't want to be bullied by Master Gu's wife anymore..."
Her tone carried a hint of exasperation, "Little sister, you're usually quite clever, how come you couldn't even see something this simple?"
"Ah... Sister is right."
Pan Ling nodded vigorously, her gaze towards her sister becoming somewhat complicated.
How should I put it?
This kind of thing seems easy to see, right... Sister, you don't need to act like you've discovered a new continent.
But for the older sister, it's already quite remarkable that she realized this.
My sister is amazing!
Poor little Pan Feng doesn't know that in her younger sister's eyes, she's practically a child herself.
...
While Pan Feng and Pan Ling were showing their close sisterly bond, Gu Yi was dragged to Xu Shi's presence by Su Lin, just like a child who had made a mistake.
"I can't handle this child anymore, you can deal with him as you see fit."
Director Su let out a long sigh.
"Can we get out of this play first?"
Seeing that she still spoke in a motherly tone, Xu Shi was truly at a loss. "But little rabbit, you really are being unreasonable. Why are you still holding a grudge?"
"Xu Shi!"
Gu Yi was furious. "You won't speak up for me, fine, but you just stand by and watch me get bullied and do nothing about it?"
"How could I possibly have time?"
The scumbag resorted to his usual trick, "Besides, you weren't being bullied, okay?"
"You...you...I'll fight you to the death!"
Miss Black Rabbit wasn't going to listen to his rational pronouncements; she tossed her head and prepared to unleash her family's signature Rocket Headbutt.
Fortunately, her skill level was no match for Boss Xu. Xu Shi easily subdued her and pulled her into his arms.
"Honestly, it's been over a year since I last saw you, how come you still haven't learned your lesson?"
He ruffled Gu Yi's hair.
To be honest, I've felt more than once that when I'm saying sweet nothings, I have a bit of a domineering CEO vibe, and if I don't control it, it can get a bit greasy.
But the girls seem to really enjoy it, so it's not necessarily a bad thing.
Gu Yi seemed to enjoy it, and her tense body gradually softened.
"Isn't this your problem?"
Now it's her turn to look pitiful. "I can't even see you, and now you have someone new by your side... I can't stand it."
"Why have you become so jealous?"
Xu Shi was both amused and exasperated. "Xiao Feng and Xiao Ling are both my apprentices, okay?"
That's true. Even if he were a lecherous scoundrel, he had no romantic feelings for these two children. On the contrary, he was determined to nurture them into talented individuals. Good seedlings shouldn't be let go.
"What's the deal with that empress?"
Gu Yi persisted, "I noticed it yesterday; there was something off about the way you and she looked at each other!"
She was like a velvet ball... Xu Shi mentally defined Dongfang Xiao's character, but still said without changing his expression, "We are just business partners."
Isn't it just a cooperative relationship? The lewd things only happened in the mental realm; our bodies are completely innocent and clean!
"Stop lying to me!"
Miss Black Rabbit rolled her eyes at him. "You definitely planted...that stuff in her too! Don't think I don't know! I can feel it!"
Wow, you noticed that?
Mr. Xu exclaimed that he had seen a ghost, but this was something that could not be avoided—the fact is that people who have been sown with the seed of "entropy of evil thoughts" have some kind of awareness of each other.
So even if he doesn't say anything, Gu Yi will still be able to find out.
But precisely because of the "increased entropy of evil thoughts," she couldn't get too serious and quickly adjusted her state.
Her tone was still a bit muffled, "I don't care, you stay with me."
"Okay, okay."
Xu Shi thought she was quite adorable. "I'm going to my grandfather's place anyway, want to come along?"
“...hesitating mouth.”
The little black rabbit answered reluctantly, but it held Xu Shi's hand tightly.
Watching them walk away, Tang Shuang and Su Lin exchanged a smile.
Both of them are mature women, and Gu Yi's behavior seemed no different from a child throwing a tantrum.
"Why don't we have a chat?"
Su Lin took the initiative to ask, "Let's talk... about what happened between you and Xu Shi?"
She hadn't wasted her time with him over the past year; she was already fully aware of what had happened between Tang Shuang and Xu Shi.
Now that we're all together, some things need to be said more openly.
"No need for that... We can handle our own affairs, Sister Su."
Tang Shuang rarely used such a form of address for her. "Honestly, I'm already very grateful that you didn't stop me after you found out."
She only found out later that Su Lin had witnessed almost the entire process when she and Xu Shi confirmed their relationship... This kind of thing was too exciting, and even she, as the Grand Governor, had a hard time with her strong mentality.
This also made her feel a little guilty in front of Su Lin, and her speech even had a hint of tea.
"I wish I could. Would it stop him from enjoying the bliss of having two wives?"
Su Lin snorted defiantly, "Besides, I don't have any thoughts on that. Let's go, even if it's just a chat between good friends."
"OK."
...
There are two sides to the story.
Xu Shi hadn't forgotten what he'd talked about with the old man last night, and he and Gu Yi came looking for him without stopping.
His mansion was quite large, but the old man seemed unwilling to live with the young people, preferring instead to enjoy his own quiet life.
Fortunately, given his status in the Hualan Empire, finding Wen Shengkui a place to stay alone was easy; all the arrangements had already been made perfectly.
