Chapter 31 Watching so closely



Xu Zhe passed out after just one glass of wine.

Liang Shile: "..."

The bartender got up and was about to come over to help him when Liang Shile waved his hand to stop him.

"Go and call Sister Yu here," the young lady ordered.

Sister Yu is the manager here, or more directly, the madam of "Kaila".

She led a group of handsome men and beautiful women under her tutelage, guiding them to become stunningly beautiful and charming.

"Young Miss, I'm here~"

Sister Yu arrived quickly, her voice following her, warm but not overly obsequious.

"Help me get this sister home."

Liang Shile supported Xu Zhe's arm and beckoned Sister Yu to come and support the other arm.

"Wow, you're so drunk!"

Sister Yu shuffled over with small, quick steps. "She's a pampered young lady."

As he spoke, he casually pressed Xu Zhe's arm and gently massaged the delicate skin.

"My dear Sister Yu, please put away your occupational hazard."

Liang Shile patted Sister Yu's hand:

“These sisters are cherished and protected, otherwise we wouldn’t have left so many strong men to ask you to help them.”

The two helped Xu Zhe up and walked outside.

After getting into the Liang family's car, Sister Yu stepped out.

Liang Shile continued to escort people back to the Xu residence.

It was only 9 p.m., but Xu Zhe's phone had been ringing non-stop the whole way.

Having no other choice, Liang Shile had to reach into his sister's handbag.

As soon as I got my phone, Xu Zhengxi's video call came in.

"Old man!"

Liang Shile was annoyed by the phone ringing the whole way. "Watching it so closely, are you afraid it will be outdone by my duck?"

After speaking, press the connect button.

Xu Zhengxi: "..."

The video shows a close-up of Liang Shile's full face, and he is even winking at the camera.

Xu Zhengxi was speechless for a moment.

Liang Shaojie's younger sister is really... in need of discipline.

Where is Xu Zhe?

He suppressed his displeasure and asked her.

"Yes~"

The camera then pans to Xu Zhe's sleeping face as he lies on the car seat.

Her long hair cascaded onto the white calfskin seat, and her long eyelashes fell like raven feathers beneath her eyes.

Her brows were slightly furrowed, and her cheeks and neck were flushed pink.

Xu Zhengxi: "..."

"She didn't drink much~ She only drank one cup, you know that."

Before Liang Shile could ask any questions, he began to explain.

Xu Zhengxi stared at the person for a long while before speaking:

"Send her back; the Xu residence will make the arrangements."

The video call ended.

Liang Shile breathed a sigh of relief; the old man's aura was simply unbearable.

One video has made her feel incredibly depressed.

Upon arriving at the front gate of the Xu residence, the lights inside and outside the house were brightly lit.

Butler Zhou and the servants were already waiting in front of the courtyard gate. As soon as Liang Shile's car arrived, they all rushed forward to greet him.

Liang Shile: "..."

That's an exaggeration, old man.

"Miss Liang."

Butler Zhou remained extremely respectful.

Liang Shile got out of the car and made way for the Xu family to pick up their guests.

Butler Zhou glanced at the back seat and waved to the servants.

Two maids stepped forward and helped Xu Zhe up, one on each side.

One of them was Aunt Lin, whom Leung Siu-lok recognized.

Before Xu Zhe's feet even touched the ground, six strong male servants carried a large object and placed it by the car door.

Liang Shile took a closer look and almost dropped his jaw in astonishment.

Wow! That old man is way too much...

A bed about 1.5 meters wide was parked next to the car door.

The soft mattress, fragrant pillows, and silk quilts were arranged in a very proper manner.

"Wow!"

Liang Shile couldn't hold back any longer; if he did, he would suffer internal injuries.

"Your young master is way too exaggerated!"

She looked at Butler Zhou, hoping to find a "you're right~" in his expression to agree with her.

Butler Zhou smiled politely at Liang Shile:

“Miss Zhe is drunk; it would be more comfortable to carry her on a bed.”

Liang Shile: "..."

No wonder he's the old man's personal butler; his thought process is exactly the same as his master's.

No wonder the butler follows Xu Zhengxi wherever he goes...

Watching Xu Zhe being carried inside surrounded by a group of people, Liang Shile stopped worrying and went straight back to her Kailuo City by car.

Beidu.

Xu Zhengxi received the report from Steward Zhou, and his agitated emotions calmed down slightly.

She knew perfectly well that she would be safe on Liang's territory.

I knew perfectly well that she was just going to take a look and wouldn't do anything inappropriate.

But after a whole night of fruitless texting and phone calls, he was still thrown into a panic.

"Young Master, Pei XX requests your presence."

The Pei family's butler came to call him.

Pei Li, who held the rank of xx in Beidu, was Xu Zhengxi's maternal uncle.

The butler addressed Pei Li by his title, but still addressed him as Young Master Xu Zhengxi, just as he had in Lingnan.

Xu Zhengxi is the young master of the Pei family, and also the heir whom the previous two generations of the Pei family have spared no effort to support.

"Um."

Xu Zhengxi nodded and went to his uncle's study.

Pei Li stood by the study window, gazing at the dim light outside, his emotions unreadable.

Xu Zhengxi walked behind him, keeping a distance of about half a zhang:

"Uncle."

Pei Li turned around, his gaze as calm as ever.

"Zhengxi, sit down."

He walked behind the desk and sat down in the rosewood official's hat chair.

Xu Zhengxi walked to the desk, pulled out a round-backed chair, and sat down opposite it.

How is Si Kangzhu doing?

Pei Li asked a question.

"It's been investigated and found that the new energy vehicle project launched in Xia City is backed by the Xu family."

Xu Zhengxi told him the truth.

At the same time, inexplicable emotions welled up in my heart.

Such emotions were irrational and indecisive, which alerted him.
