Ji Huaishen's voice was cold and terrifying, and the corridor was silent.
A moment later, Chi Yan timidly poked his head out.
Lou Quzheng stood behind him.
A calm smile graced his face.
"Xiao Chi took me around to see the place. Right, Xiao Chi?"
Suddenly being called upon, Young Master Chi grinned and nodded hastily, "Yes, yes, yes. I'll show Uncle Lou around."
Ji Huaishen's eyes sharpened: "I want to hear the truth."
Chi Yan coughed lightly and cast a pleading look at Lou Quzheng behind him.
Lou Quzheng swaggered forward two steps, his voice still rough and loud: "We've created an opportunity for you today, so you'd better hurry up."
After saying that, she winked at Ji Huaishen.
Ji Huaishen's handsome brows furrowed slightly, as if creating an opportunity for him?
He didn't speak, glanced at the two of them indifferently, then turned and walked towards the study.
When Chi Yan saw that Ji Huaishen had left, the smile on her face disappeared.
His voice lowered, and he said with a hint of worry, "Uncle Lou, will your plan work?"
I don't want to exacerbate their conflict; that would be a case of good intentions gone wrong.
Lou Quzheng gave a haughty snort: "Hmph~"
"I've eaten more salt than you've eaten rice, this is definitely going to work."
Chi Yan's lips twitched.
So, how much salt have you actually eaten, old man?
It's quite remarkable that they've lived this long.

Mu Xiaocheng went to the study and focused intently on helping Ji Huaishen find books.
"The Road Less Traveled?" That sounds like a book about psychology. Does Ji Huaishen read this too?
Ji Huaishen's study has tall, wall-mounted European-style bookshelves.
Therefore, some books are placed very high.
She tilted her head back and started searching from the top row, then moved down, until her eyes started to ache.
Ji Huaishen's house has too many "messy" books.
Economics, management, military affairs, history, all sorts of things, and so on...
Mu Xiaocheng suddenly spotted several familiar books with flamboyant and eye-catching covers among a large pile of serious books.
Upon closer inspection, she realized it was her own comic book.
Mu Xiaocheng reached out and took out a comic book. She flipped through it casually and found that it was indeed her work.
This is her earliest printed and published comic book, which was published two years ago.
Mu Xiaocheng looked at the others and counted them; he had every single one of her books.
So, does Ji Huaishen also read her works?
Moreover, I've added it to my collection.
A strange feeling arose spontaneously. Mu Xiaocheng pursed her lips, but suddenly thought of something very serious.
Holy crap!
In most of her comics, the male and female leads kiss and hug, and there are even bed scenes, although the details of the bed scenes are not detailed, just one picture, but...
If Ji Huaishen saw these things, would he think she was an improper person?
Will they think she has dirty thoughts, and will they laugh at her behind her back?
Thinking about all this, Mu Xiaocheng's face flushed, and she turned into a big, awkward expression.
She's a decent person, you know!
Mu Xiaocheng calmed herself down and comforted herself: It's okay, how could a big shot like Ji Huaishen read this kind of romance comic!
Don't scare yourself.
She took a deep breath, regained her composure, and continued to help Ji Huaishen find books.
After searching for a while, she finally found the book "The Road Less Traveled" in the top column.
However, the location is a bit high.
Mu Xiaocheng struggled to stand on her tiptoes, stretching her arms high, but she was still a little short.
After struggling for a while, her arms were too tired, and she was about to give up.
A long, beautiful hand came into her view.
