High-paying poaching
Shen Xiu tapped the keyboard without any pause: "Me."
The man's low and cold voice reached his ears, and Qin Mo was speechless and unable to speak for a while.
At this moment, Qin Mo finally deeply understood what the words "deafening silence" meant.
Moreover, the classic words of the Xiu scholars involuntarily emerged in my mind - Master Xiu, what other surprises do I not know about!
He also wanted to ask how many surprises Mr. Shen had that he didn't know about!
After Shen Xiu answered Qin Mo's question, three seconds passed and he didn't hear Qin Mo's voice. He finally took his eyes off the virtual screen floating in front of him and glanced at the phone in hands-free mode.
Aloud: "Any questions?"
Hearing Shen Xiu's indifferent voice again, Qin Mo swallowed and said, "No more."
“Boss Shen, I won’t bother you anymore, bye.”
"goodbye."
After Shen Xiu finished speaking, his eyes fell on the virtual screen again.
In the office.
After ending the call, Qin Mo stared at the phone screen which had gone black, raised his hand and rubbed his forehead hard.
Now someone told him that Shen Xiu was a god, and he believed this nonsense!
The project was over. When Team Leader Liu came in from outside in the afternoon and saw Qin Mo again in the lobby, he remembered the question he asked last time and couldn't help but call Qin Mo: "Assistant Qin, you..."
Before Team Leader Liu finished speaking, Qin Mo knew what he was going to ask, and said faintly: "Boss Shen wrote it."
Team leader Liu's pupils trembled and he froze in the hall.
Qin Mo could feel the deafening silence of Team Leader Liu, and he felt the same way, so he raised his hand and patted Team Leader Liu on the shoulder.
Ask kindly: "Is there anything else you want to say?"
Team Leader Liu: “…No more.”
Hook up? Oh, he was really bold at that time! How presumptuous of him!
Qin Mo: "Work hard."
Team Leader Liu: “…Okay.”
With an omnipotent king like Shen Xiu, it would be strange if Kota didn't become the leading leader in the industry!
Taihe, which successfully won the intelligent driving project that Kota did not attach much importance to, is very interested in the programmer who wrote this intelligent driving program.
Want to poach someone with a high salary.
But when they were negotiating the cooperation, they found that Qin Mo's mouth was as tight as a solid wall and they couldn't get him to open his mouth at all.
Therefore, the other party set their sights on Team Leader Liu, who used to be the team leader of the intelligent driving project team.
That Thursday, we found an excuse and invited Team Leader Liu to a dinner.
At the dinner, Taihe staff came at the order of their leader and tried desperately to find excuses to get Team Leader Liu drunk.
Team Leader Liu didn't think much about it and was soon drunk.
The Taihe staff seized the opportunity and asked Team Leader Liu again and again.
"Team Leader Liu, do you know who in your company wrote the program that your company sold to our company last time?"
When Team Leader Liu heard the voice and was asked several times, his mind was not very clear and he spoke vaguely: "Who else could it be?"
"Of course it's our President Shen!"
Speaking of this incident, although Team Leader Liu was drunk, he still felt ashamed for having once tried to hook up with Mr. Shen.
"Our President Shen, Shen is omnipotent!"
Mr. Shen?
Is it... the Mr. Shen they were thinking of?
The Taihe staff looked at Team Leader Liu in shock and asked again uncertainly.
“Boss Shen, is it…Shen Xiu?”
Hearing Shen Xiu's name, Team Leader Liu, who had closed his eyes because of drunkenness, suddenly opened his eyes and said faintly: "No, what else?"
After saying this, Team Leader Liu seemed to have exhausted all his strength. He closed his eyes and fell on the table, unable to get up. He was obviously very drunk.
The Taihe staff were startled when Team Leader Liu suddenly opened his eyes and thought he was awake.
Who knew that he fell asleep after he finished speaking, closed his eyes, and while they breathed a sigh of relief, they thought of what Team Leader Liu had said and looked at each other in surprise.
I couldn't make up my mind for a moment.
"You guys say... is what he just said true?"
“Really…?”
"It's really hard to comment on the fact that we recruited Mr. Kota Shen to our company."
"Chen Xiu can actually program! Amazing!"
"What's so strange about this? After all...it's Shen Xiu!"
"That makes sense. It's Chen Xiu. That's fine. Past experience tells me that Chen Xiu will go to heaven. I don't find it strange."
"Okay, stop talking. Let's find out and ask the boss directly."
The minister with the highest position in the box called the president of Taihe and put the speaker on the table.
After receiving the call from his subordinate, Taihe's boss thought he had found out the truth and asked directly, "Who is it?"
“Boss Qin, Liu Jiang said it was Shen Xiu.”
After hearing his subordinate's answer, President Taihe was silent: "......"
He wanted to say "what a joke", but when he thought of the word "Chen Xiu", he suddenly couldn't say anything.
After all, it was Shen Xiu!
A few minutes later, the Taihe employee who was still in the box heard the voice of the company's president coming from the other end of the speakerphone.
“Just ignore what I said before. No one is allowed to spread this matter.” After saying that, President Taihe felt embarrassed and hung up the phone without hesitation.
Taihe wants to poach people with high salary and poach the boss of Kota. If this gets out, the industry will laugh out loud!
He was being presumptuous!
Saturday.
As always, Chen Xiu brought a bunch of bright red roses, placed them on the passenger seat, and drove to the cemetery.
Chen Xiu has been to this cemetery countless times and is very familiar with it. He can find it with his eyes closed.
Standing in front of the familiar double grave, Shen Xiu first skillfully cleaned the cemetery before placing the roses he brought in front of the tombstone.
After putting it away, Shen Xiu stood up straight, his eyes fell on the double tombstone, and he spoke slowly and solemnly: "Mom, Dad, I am Shen Xiu, I am back."
At this moment, Shen Xiu was very sure that the man standing in front of his parents' grave was just Shen Xiu.
I don’t know if it’s because there are trees planted all around the cemetery, but when the cold wind blows in the cemetery, it is cooler than other places.
After saying this, many scenes flashed through Shen Xiu’s mind.
The complex and ever-changing rainforest, the cold mecha cabin, the bright moon hanging high in the sea, the bloody smell of fighting on the battlefield, and the future city hanging high in the sky... Everything made Shen Xiu feel as if he was in a dream.
None of it is as real as standing in front of my parents' grave now.
No matter where he was, no matter what he had been through, Chen Xiu was very sure that the reason he was able to come back was because there was only one thought in his mind that supported him, and that was to return here, to the beginning, and to be himself forever.
Shen Xiu's dazed look disappeared in an instant, and he said firmly: "No matter what, I am still me."
The surroundings were empty, except for countless graves, and the only living person was Shen Xiu.
Therefore, no one would give Shen Xiu any response.
Chen Xiu stood in front of his parents' graves, already accustomed to this kind of silence, and did not need to respond.
Looking at his parents' tombstones and putting aside the past, he couldn't help but recall the last New Year when he brought a lot of Spring Festival couplets, fireworks and other offerings, arrived at the cemetery in the middle of the night, and spent the New Year's Eve with his parents at the cemetery.
Slightly shameful.
Fortunately, no one would have the same strange idea as him on New Year's Eve and go to the cemetery to celebrate the New Year.
Otherwise, if he scares someone into becoming sick, he would be guilty.
but.......
Shen Xiu's eyes fell on his parents' tombstone.
He will dare to do it again next time.
In Shen Xiu's opinion, going to the cemetery in the middle of the night to celebrate the New Year is a bit strange but a bit shameful.
But from another perspective, there is nothing wrong with the logic of reuniting with parents on New Year's Eve to celebrate the New Year.
Before coming to the cemetery, Shen Xiu had a lot of things he wanted to say.
He told his parents about his experiences and observations in various worlds, but when he actually arrived at the tomb, Shen Xiu seemed to have returned to the way he interacted with his parents when he was a child.
Neither side knew how to express it, and everything was implied.
Therefore, what appeared in the eyes of the system was that the system saw Shen Xiu standing and staring at his parents' graves, motionless, for more than an hour.
The system started to get scared after staring at him for too long, fearing that Shen Xiu might do something dangerous, so it gave him a trembling reminder.
[Mr. Shen, please calm down. You can't do that. That's no different from creating bugs for the world! 】
All parallel worlds have their own Son of Fortune. As the maintainer of the normal operation of all worlds, Chen Xiu's task is to ensure that nothing unexpected happens before the previous Son of Fortune completes his mission within the established timeline before the next Son of Fortune is born.
If one world is in chaos, it will affect other timelines.
Therefore, except for it, the maintainer, and every host, everyone will have their own predetermined destiny within their own timeline.
Disrupting the timeline will cause collapse like its previous host, and it will need to bind to the next host to replace the previous host.
However, after Shen Xiu completed his mission, it was reset by Shen Xiu due to some extraordinary behavior.
From then on, Shen Xiu's authority was higher than its, and it existed as a subsidiary of Shen Xiu.
The system can no longer boss around like it did with its previous hosts. It can only persuade them as it is not as skilled as others.
The system puts out its chips: [You don't want the world line to be disrupted again, causing countless people in parallel time and space to fall into unknown areas and cause casualties. You need to play the lives of those who have long been dead again, right? 】
[Think about the fact that although you don’t have many friends, you have many times more friends than before. This world is so beautiful! 】
Shen Xiu: “…”
If the system didn't mention it, Chen Xiu couldn't even remember that in the past, for the sake of missions, he didn't need to round off his friends and directly equaled them to 0.
Being stabbed in the heart by the system, the autistic Shen Xiu said faintly: "...Shut up."
"I just stared at the tombstone for a long time, without thinking about anything."
He was just staring at his parents' tombstone in a daze.
Shen Xiu emphasized: "I am very lucky and normal, don't worry."
system:【.......】
Really? It doesn't believe it!
In the past, Chen Xiu liked to go crazy in the most normal way, and he also liked his logic to be self-consistent. As long as he liked, he could twist anything into what he thought was a reasonable logic, and he firmly believed that his logic was correct.
The process is not important to Shen Xiu. What Shen Xiu cares about is the result.
For example--
Shen Xiu, who was once the chief of the Federation, was chatting happily with the Crown Prince of the Empire in the last second. In the next second, when he heard the news it provided, his expression changed faster than turning a page of a book and he knocked the other party unconscious without mercy.
In order to prevent the prince from being killed when he returns to the empire, and to complete his mission of assisting the prince to become the chosen one to end the war, Shen Xiu chooses to imprison the other party in his own mansion.
The periphery is patrolled 24 hours a day, and a dragnet is set up inside, using all kinds of high-tech to ensure that not even a mosquito can get close to the Crown Prince of the Empire.
Instead, Chen Xiu, who was supposed to assist the prince, pretended to be the prince and solved all the troubles on his behalf. He only released the prince after all the troubles were solved within the stipulated timeline.
The system was dumbfounded when it experienced Shen Xiu's operation for the first time, just as confused as the prince who was picked up later.
The prince who finally ended the war between the Federation and the Empire, every time he saw Shen Xiu, his eyes revealed the fear of being dominated by Shen Xiu, and he avoided Shen Xiu all his life.
How did Shen Xiu tell it at that time?
Ah, yes, Chen Xiu said to it - just tell him whether he was killed or not, and tell him whether I helped him end the war or not.
system:【......】
The prince was indeed not killed, but his heart was dead.
Whose assistant imprisons the one being assisted? In order to prevent the assistant from being killed and affecting the stability of the world, the other party is imprisoned!
But Shen Xiu thought that his approach was not wrong, and in the end, the world was not destabilized by the death of the prince.
There are countless examples like this.
All in all, Shen Xiu's logic is normal, but most of the time, it has nothing to do with the logic of a normal person.
What normal people think is normal or not is not important to Shen Xiu.
What is important is whether he can be logically consistent.
In short, everything depends on his willingness to practice meditation.
All the existences that were illogical to the parallel world were forced by Shen Xiu to conform to logic and moved to the world where Shen Xiu was born.
Because according to Shen Xiu's logic, each space-time has an established timeline and a new timeline, so everything he created is completely logical as long as he is there.
Therefore, the system has severe PTSD towards Shen Xiu's self-righteous normality and logic.
Although the system was cowardly, it beeped quietly: [The dead cannot be resurrected... Forcibly inserting people who should not exist will cause time and space to be disrupted...]
Shen Xiu: “…I know.”
Shen Xiu didn't know what mistake he had made that caused the system to misunderstand him so deeply.
According to his review, he clearly did nothing wrong. He completed every task perfectly, and no uncontrollable accidents occurred.
In the end, Shen Xiu could only attribute everything to the fact that the system requirements were too high.
Shen Xiu spent a few hours in the cemetery, and the system was on tenterhooks for a few hours.
Until Chen Xiu left the cemetery, he had no intention of going back to the past, resurrecting his parents, and disrupting the established timeline of the world. The system database finally stabilized.
On the way back in the car, the system couldn't help but be curious: [Mr. Shen, how did you realize that you were...abnormal? 】
Shen Xiu, who was driving, recalled the special effects in his mind and said faintly: "Because I know special effects."
"From my past memories, and according to normal logic, it is impossible for me to do that, so it is not normal."
system:【? 】
The system thought of many reasons to stimulate Chen Xiu to find the truth, but it never expected that it would be just a special effect!
The last time I checked its database, it didn't respond! Going back further, when I was in the villa study during the training camp, I didn’t react to anything I saw in the study!
Sure enough, Shen Xiu's logic was something he would never be able to understand.
After returning from the cemetery, Shen Xiu went to class as normal.
There were not many courses in the senior year, and Shen Xiu spent most of his time either on "New Life" or on maintaining stability in the world line he had fallen behind.
Therefore, we see Shen Xiu less often in school.
Another class is over.
Today I just finished one class of meditation and didn’t stay in school for long. I quickly returned to the villa.
After Shen Xiu’s back disappeared, the students who remained in the classroom dared to gossip.
"Do you feel that Boss Xiu seems to be busier recently?"
“Not only is it busier, but the aura is even more powerful.”
“I have a suspicion that after Xiu Da Lao finishes his course, he will gradually fade out of the sight of netizens.”
"Add one. After all, I have gained all the experience points. Boss Xiu should no longer be interested."
"The God of Volume will never stop for one thing! But when I think about how rarely I will see Xiu Bao in the future, I feel a little sad."
"We can't help it. Boss Xiu will never stop for anything. He has been with us for a while. This is already very good. After all, people always have to grow up. In the process of growing up, they always have to learn to let go of the past and move forward courageously."
"So... when exactly will 'The New Life' be released? I'm curious as to what kind of teen movie would require special effects. I have a feeling this will be Xiu Bao's last movie."
"Shut up you prophet!"
Another winter vacation is here.
On the day of winter vacation, the official Weibo of "New Life" finally announced the release date.
After Shen Xiu appeared as Mr. Shen in Kota, almost all netizens tacitly accepted that "New Life" was Shen Xiu's last work in the entertainment industry as Director Shen.
Therefore, netizens' expectations have reached a new level.
#New Student Schedule#
#As Director Shen’s last work#
#From now on, I will be Mr. Shen#
——I am ready, I will sit on the router and grab the tickets when they are issued!
——Draw your swords, sisters! This time, I must watch the first show to make up for the regret of not being able to get the first show ticket for "The Storm" last time!
——I bet a bag of spicy snacks that Xiu Lao’s social media accounts must be managed by the agent who is rumored to have a hand speed faster than AI. After all, apart from mechanically forwarding messages recently, he hasn’t replied to us in the comments section. Woohoo, it makes me sad to think that Xiu Bao is about to leave us.
——There is a gossip that the president of Taihe wants to poach Mr. Xiu to work for him with a high salary. Is this gossip true?
——Where did this rumor come from? It’s obviously fake. Unless President Taihe is crazy, he would say such a thing!
With seven days left before the official release of "New Life", Shen Xiu finished the first semester of his senior year and spent a semester dealing with all the affairs in various worlds that had been delayed before. Finally, he had time to take Lucky to Yicheng to meet its brothers and sisters.
Before leaving, Chen Xiu thought of the agreement he and his friends had made in Yicheng and sent a message in the group.
【Group Chat】
Chen Xiu: From tomorrow to next Wednesday, it will be a four-day period. Is anyone going to Yicheng with me?
Xiang Yueting:!
Xiang Yueting: Raise your hand, I’ll go!
Xia Wenhao: [Picture] I'm on vacation in Yicheng, waiting for you.
Song Chengwang: plus 1
Business metaphor: together.
Everyone in the group went, and Shen Xiu typed.
Chen Xiu: Okay, I’ll arrange it.
As the captain of The Galaxy, Shen Xiu was in charge of the arrangements and no one had any objections.
After exiting the group chat, Shen Xiu called Fang Heng, whom he hadn't contacted for a long time.
Less than ten minutes after Fang Heng got off the plane, he received a call from Shen Xiu. He couldn't help but sit up straight in the car and speak respectfully, as if Shen Xiu was standing in front of him at this moment.
"Hello, Mr. Shen, how can I help you?"
Hearing Fang Heng's words, Shen Xiu said briefly: "The plane will arrive in Yicheng at 7 pm the day after tomorrow. We will stay at Oser Manor and arrange eight guest rooms."
When Fang Heng heard this, he immediately understood: “I understand, Mr. Shen, don’t worry, I will arrange everything.”
Fang Heng ended the call, ignoring Fang Mo's inquiring look beside him, and made the call to make arrangements.
After arranging all matters, he looked at Fang Mo and asked, "What do you want to say?"
Fang Mo said with certainty: “It’s Mr. Shen!”
Only Mr. Shen could make his brother so cautious over the phone, thousands of miles away.
Fang Heng nodded: "Yeah."
Fang Mo said embarrassedly: "I used to wonder if there was something unusual about Mr. Shen not contacting you for so many years. Now I finally know that I was overthinking."
Fang Heng didn't think there was anything unusual. He opened his notebook and said calmly while handling his work, "Never use ordinary people's thinking to speculate about Mr. Shen. It won't work. There is a reason for not contacting him."
At this point, Fang Heng paused while typing and said faintly, "Perhaps, just like what the cultivators said, our past industries are just for Mr. Shen to gain experience, and are not enough to occupy Mr. Shen's attention."
The scenes of life and death with Shen Xiu seemed like a dream to him now.
If the scars on his body were not still there, he might have suspected that it was really a dream.
But every time I see Chen Xiu and hear the word "Chen Xiu", everything comes alive again.
Fang Mo: "...Brother, I didn't expect that you appear to be serious on the surface, but you are surfing the Internet in private!"
Fang Mo took off his cool sunglasses, took out his mobile phone, clicked on the super topic, and showed his super topic fan level.
"I didn't dare to say it before, for fear that you would say I wasn't doing my job properly. Now, we're both the same. Brother, show me your fan sign and let me see what level of cultivator you are!"
Fang Heng: “?”
Is this the point?
Fang Heng's mouth twitched slightly, and he resisted the urge to beat Fang Mo up: "Either shut up or get out of here!"
Fang Mo said: ".......Okay, I'll shut up."
In my heart——
Oh, why be shy? He won't laugh at his brother for being a hypocrite!
Arriving at Shen Xiufa's place, Xiang Yueting took off his cool sunglasses and said, "Team Xiu didn't tell us that the arrangement was to arrange a private plane!"
Mu Zhenchu put his arm around Xiang Yueting: "Just tell me whether you like it or not."
Xiang Yueting: “I like it!”
After he finished speaking, Xiang Yueting saw Shang Yu and rushed over: "Long time no see!"
Jiang Yanxi came over by Shang Yu's car. When he got out of the car, he saw Xiang Yueting hugging Shang Yu enthusiastically. He said faintly: "Why don't you hug me? You are hypocritical!"
Xiang Yueting: “?”
Zhuang Yi, who also got in Shang Yu's car, got out and answered Xiang Yueting's doubts: "Yan Xi recently took on a new role in a play, playing the second male lead in a play called Green Tea. The lines are full of tea flavor. The words just now are a line."
"So that's how it is. I was so scared. When you said that suddenly, I got goose bumps all over my body... Wait, why do you know that?"
Zhuang Yi said shyly: "Because Yanxi and I acted in the same play, I was the male lead and he was teasing me." Therefore, as he was acting opposite Jiang Yanxi, he was so familiar with Jiang Yanxi's lines.
While they were talking, Song Chengwang's car also arrived.
After Song Chengwang got off the car, he waved to the driver to leave.
"Mr. Song, please give us your luggage."
"Thanks."
"You're welcome."
When the staff was moving Song Chengwang's luggage onto the plane like everyone else's luggage, Song Chengwang walked towards Jiang Yanxi and others.
"What are you talking about? I can hear your busy voice from a distance."
Xiang Yueting concluded: "About Yan Xi's sudden tea-like mood."
Song Chengwang: “?”
Song Chengwang looked around and didn't see Chen Xiu. He seemed to remember something and looked at Shang Yu with a dim gaze.
Since Shang Yu returned to the company, he hasn't met with them offline for a long time.
Therefore, Song Chengwang never found an opportunity to severely condemn Shang Yu's behavior, and he held back his dissatisfaction for a long time.
"Come with me."
Shang Yu kept smiling: "Let's go."
Song Chengwang looked at the gossiping Xiang Yueting and said, "Don't come over here. We want to fight."
After getting along for a long time, everyone knows each other's temper.
Song Chengwang and Xia Wenhao are indeed the ones with the most violent tempers among them, and they will fight at the slightest disagreement.
Some distance away from Xiang Yueting and the others, Shang Yu looked at Song Chengwang and said, "Go ahead."
Song Chengwang: "I finally understand why you didn't let me see what was going on in the study room of the villa. It turns out that you knew that Shen Xiu was not only Shen Xiu, but also Mr. Shen. Tell me the truth, did you guess the identity of Captain Xiu at the beginning?"
Shang Yu only took a cursory look at it at first, and caught a glimpse of some things about Kota, and indeed guessed Shen Xiu's identity.
Today's facts have proved that his original guess was correct.
but--
Shang Yu looked at Song Chengwang and smiled slightly: "I don't understand what you are talking about."
Song Chengwang raised his hand and was about to hit Shang Yu on the shoulder.
When his hand fell, Shang Yu caught it easily.
Song Chengwang moved a bit, but found that he couldn't move, so he cursed, "Damn it, let go."
Shang Yu held Song Chengwang's hand without moving, and said calmly: "I don't want everyone to be unhappy, so I hope that in everyone's heart, I am the same as all of you. Before Shen Xiu announced it, I knew nothing."
Song Chengwang was speechless and rolled his eyes toward the sky: "Got it."
"You guys who are so careful about your work are terrible."
Shang Yu's smile remained unchanged: "I'm used to it."
After saying this, Shang Yu finally let go of Song Chengwang's hand.
Mu Zhenchu and others who were not far away breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Shang Yu let go.
"Looking at Old Song's expression, I almost thought they were going to fight, but Shang Yu has such a good temper, how could he provoke Old Song?"
"I don't understand. How about you go ask Lao Song?"
"Forget it, no...ah, Team Xiu is here! Team Xiu, over here!" Xiang Yueting saw Chen Xiu coming out of the car and raised his hand to wave at Chen Xiu.
Shen Xiu held Lucky in his arms and strode towards the group.
"I don't know why, but every time I see Captain Xiu with a blank expression and a bossy face while holding Lucky, I feel a weird feeling."
"What's weird? That's a contrast of cuteness, similar to the killer and the flower, understand?"
It was not the first time for Lucky to go out, so he was not afraid. It was also not the first time he met the members of The Galaxy. When he saw them, he struggled in Shen Xiu's arms for a few times, then jumped down and trotted towards them.
Xiang Yueting squatted down, ready to welcome Lucky.
Then, in everyone's sight, Lucky passed Xiang Yueting and rushed towards Zhuang Yi.
Xiang Yueting: "......"
"Hahaha......"
"It's happened so many times, why don't you give up, Lao Xiang?"
"Damn it, why does little Lucky always run towards Zhuang Yi every time he comes out of Captain Xiu's arms? Zhuang Yi, do you know meow language?"
Zhuang Yi picked up Lucky awkwardly. He didn’t know why Lucky always liked to be hugged by him.
Zhuang Yi explained helplessly: "From the time she was in Captain Xiu's arms to my arms, Lucky hasn't called out once."
What this means is that cat language does not exist.
Xiang Yueting, who came over, heard Xiang Yueting's complaints and explained for Zhuang Yi: "Because Lucky likes to stay in the arms of people who don't talk much and don't touch it much."
Many times, he was too rualucky, and Lucky also treated him equally.
But when he is too busy to pay attention to Lucky, Lucky will find ways to attract his attention.
All in all, sometimes, being a little more aloof makes Lucky more clingy.
Xiang Yueting: "......"
Isn't this a disguised way of saying he's a chatterbox? Xiang Yueting felt like his knee was hit by an arrow and covered his chest with his hands: "Captain Xiu, you have a shrimp and a pig's heart!"
Shen Xiu: “…”
The truth hurts, so he should just keep his mouth shut next time.
At this time, the staff walked to Shen Xiu's side and respectfully reminded him in a low voice: "Mr. Shen, you can set off."
Shen Xiu nodded slightly: "Yeah."
After saying that, Shen Xiu looked at his friends and said, "Let's go."
To be honest, traveling with friends who are not afraid of me and treat me as a friend instead of a boss or leader is a completely different experience from before, and Shen Xiu is looking forward to it.
The group arrived in Yicheng at 7pm local time.
When they saw the familiar Fang Mo and the group of bodyguards behind Fang Mo, Ning Sinian and his companions recalled the fear they had felt in Basat when they were surrounded by bodyguards armed with live ammunition.
Xiang Yueting thought of Song Chengwang's words, and his eyes couldn't help but fall on the bodyguards' waists.
A group of people stood still.
Shang Yu did not go to Basat, and he did not find it strange to see groups of bodyguards, and he did not quite understand it.
He looked at Xiang Yueting's eyes, then looked at the bodyguard who was being looked at by Xiang Yueting: "What's wrong?"
Xiang Yueting whispered into Shang Yu's ear. It was winter in Yicheng now, and Xiang Yueting's words turned into white mist under the light: "...In short, they are really scary."
Business metaphor: "......"
When Chen Xiu saw Fang Mo, he also remembered what happened to him in Basat.
Thinking of how he didn't dare to walk around and stayed in the dark and twisted room to observe the terrain, Shen Xiu: "..."
He didn't know whether Fang Mo was embarrassed or not, but he was quite embarrassed.
When Fang Mo walked towards Chen Xiu, he was stared at by Chen Xiu's cold eyes, and he felt uncomfortable walking.
Gritting his teeth and walking to Shen Xiu's side, Fang Mo whispered, "Mr. Shen."
Shen Xiu's dark eyes fell on Fang Mo and he asked, "Where's Fang Heng?"
At least he wasn't that embarrassed facing Fang Heng!
Fang Mo: “….”
No way, after so long, Mr. Shen is still angry about his probing in Basat?
Sure enough, he is good at holding a grudge!
Fang Mo said awkwardly: "My elder brother..."
Before Fang Mo could finish his words, a brake sound was heard. Fang Mo turned around and saw a familiar car stop. Then, a familiar figure got out of the car.
The next moment, he walked towards them quickly.
Fang Heng walked up to Shen Xiu and apologized respectfully: "I'm sorry, Mr. Shen, something happened temporarily and I came late."
Seeing Fang Heng, Shen Xiu felt much less embarrassed and didn't mind: "Let's go."
"good."
Shen Xiu was not angry, Fang Heng breathed a sigh of relief and spontaneously took the suitcase belonging to Shen Xiu from the private jet entourage.
“Mr. Shen, please.”
After he finished speaking, he looked at the members of The Galaxy behind Shen Xiu and said, “Everyone, please.”
Shang Yu raised his eyebrows slightly. This Fang Heng was obviously more capable than Fang Mo. He must be as trusted by Shen Xiu as the man named Qin Mo.
No one paid attention to him, Fang Mo: "......"
He regrets it now, very much!
"Meow!"
Lucky finally had enough fun, and with a meow, he jumped out of someone else's arms and ran straight to Chen Xiu.
Shen Xiu squatted down and hugged Lucky with emotion.
The soft and furry thing was in his arms, and Shen Xiu couldn't help but rub it a few more times.
Lucky finally remembered him, it’s not easy!
Seeing Shen Xiu holding a big black coal ball with an expressionless face, his slender fingers fell on the furry coal ball and gently stroked its fur.
Fang Heng: “…”
Although I knew that Shen Xiu had a cat, it was really torn when I saw it with my own eyes!
Shen Xiu noticed Fang Heng's gaze and said, "Is there a problem?"
Fang Heng shook his head decisively: "No problem!"
The cat that the cold-blooded Mr. Shen could raise and hold in his arms must have something special about it!
Ten minutes later.
The group sat in the car in groups.
Ning Sinian and Xiang Yueting, who were sitting in the same car, watched the situation getting more and more lopsided, and because of the bodyguard sitting in the front passenger seat, they talked in low voices.
"When we came here, Team Xiu said in the group chat that he would take us to see his pets. What kind of pets did Team Xiu have in this deep forest?"
"Just look at Lucky and you'll know. Although Captain Xiu looks cold on the surface, he actually has a warm heart. Captain Xiu must have a bunch of kittens."
The two bodyguards who heard this in the front seat: "?"
Do these two people behind have any misunderstandings about Mr. Shen?
At nine o'clock in the evening, the group arrived at their destination, Oser Manor.
I don't know when it started snowing outside, and goose feather-like snowflakes fell down.
Fang Heng got out of the car and opened the door for Shen Xiu.
Before Shen Xiu got out of the car, another bodyguard opened a large black umbrella to block the falling snow.
The moment Shen Xiu stepped out of the car, Fang Heng took the coat from Butler Shen and put it on Shen Xiu.
"Mr. Shen, welcome back." Butler Shen looked at Shen Xiu respectfully and said, "Dinner is ready."
When Shen Xiu saw Butler Shen and thought of what happened at Bosen Manor last time, he deeply understood what it meant to feel like 'the embarrassing memory of death suddenly began to attack me'.
Holding back the embarrassment, Shen Xiu said, “Well, it’s hard work.”
He was very curious about how thick-skinned Butler Shen was that he didn't notice that something was wrong with him.
Before entering the house, Shen Xiu tilted his head to look at the convoy behind him. After seeing his friends getting off the car one after another and being covered with clothes by the bodyguards to keep warm, he felt relieved and said, "It's cold outside, let's all go in."
Although Shen Xiu's voice was still cold, after getting along for a long time, everyone knew that Shen Xiu was not being polite, but really cared about them.
They responded one after another.
After getting everyone's response, Shen Xiu stepped into the house.
Mu Zhenchu looked at Shen Xiu's tall back surrounded by a group of people, then looked at his clothes, and couldn't help but whisper to Xiang Yueting: "Although it's not the first time I've seen it, but... it's really cool! Why don't I have that feeling when we have the same configuration now? I feel like I'm so rough."
He didn't have any of Shen Xiu's innate noble and elegant aura.
"Calm down, I don't have one either."
"Calm down, I don't have one either."
"Plus one."
Fang Mo, who was being ignored, passed by and heard the voices of several people. He couldn't help but join in the conversation.
"According to my brother, Mr. Shen's skills were gained through experience in the midst of gunfire and rain of bullets. I recommend that you give it a try, and you may find the answer after a try."
After Fang Mo finished speaking, he was stared at with fear by Ning Sinian and the others.
Shang Yu said bluntly: "You will die if you try it?"
Fang Mo: "...There's no need to be so blunt."
Shang Yu smiled slightly and said murderously: "Instead of scaring us here, you should think carefully about how to make Team Xiu treat you like your brother."
Before boarding the plane, Xiang Yueting and Shang Yu told them about the car being stopped.
Based on Xiang Yueting's words, although Shang Yu did not go to Basat, he roughly guessed it.
After saying this, Shang Yu looked at Fang Mo's ugly expression and suddenly realized that he had guessed right.
Fang Mo shut himself in and looked at Shang Yu dimly: "You are so cruel!"
Alas, he was just telling the truth, why is he disliked again?
Shang Yu still smiled: "Thank you for the compliment."
Fang Mo: “…”
He was already feeling depressed because he was disliked by Mr. Shen. He wanted to scare the others but failed. Instead, he was angered by Shang Yu, which made him even more depressed.
"Shang Yu is so brave to dare to say that about him." Xiang Yueting whispered to Zhuang Yi.
Zhuang Yi guessed: "Maybe... ignorance is bliss?"
After all, Shang Yu had never been to Basat with them, and had never experienced the fear of being surrounded by Fang Mo and his men with guns and live ammunition.
Ning Sinian nodded: "That must be the case!"
Xiang Yueting sighed: "For us, Shang Yu argued with that person like that. Really, I cried to death!"
Song Chengwang: "......"
He didn't have the heart to break their perception and tell them that the truth was that Shang Yu was far from being as gentle and harmless as he appeared.
Xia Wenhao, who was in Yicheng earlier and arrived at Oser Manor earlier than the others, saw Shen Xiu go in, but didn't see the others. When he came out and saw the others standing in the snow and chatting, he couldn't help but say, "What are you doing? We're just waiting for you to eat!"
“Here it comes!”
"Where's An An? Why are you alone?"
Because Ke Zian is Xia Wenhao's childhood friend, he has a good relationship with all the members of The Galaxy.
"His parents have returned home, and he is going home to reunite with them. Okay, stop talking nonsense and come in quickly. It's freezing outside."
Xia Wenhao came out to call for help without wearing a coat. It was snowing outside, so the temperature was naturally not comparable to that in the room with the air conditioner on.
After saying this, Xia Wenhao flashed back into the house.
Several people also quickly entered the house.
Because they had wasted some time outside, when they entered the house and the servants inside took off their coats for them, they did not see Shen Xiu.
"Where's the repair team?"
"It's not that we delayed too long, Team Xiu..."
Butler Shen came out of the kitchen and explained with a smile: "Mr. Shen is upstairs and will be down soon."
"Everyone, before you eat, do you need to go back to your rooms to see if you are satisfied?"
This was not the first time that everyone had met Butler Shen. Whether it was the last time at Bosen Manor or now at the villa, everyone couldn't help but admire Butler Shen's thoughtful consideration.
"It's troublesome."
"Yes, thank you."
"Thank you, Butler Shen."
Hearing everyone's polite thanks, Butler Shen smiled and said, "You're welcome. You are all Mr. Shen's friends. Everything we do is what we should do. All the items in your house are brand new and have been cleaned. Please feel free to use them."
Butler Shen looked at the servants and said, "Take the gentlemen upstairs."
"OK."
Ten minutes later, everyone came downstairs one after another and sat on the chairs at the dining table. After everyone was present, dinner began.
Shen Xiu was afraid that everyone would feel uncomfortable, so he asked the others to leave during the meal.
Sure enough, as soon as the others left, the dinner atmosphere became lively under the leadership of Xiang Yueting.
The flight took too long, and in order to have energy to play the next day, everyone did not stay long after dinner and decided to go back to their respective rooms to rest.
The next day.
At eight o'clock in the morning, Shang Yu was dressed neatly. As soon as he walked out of the corner where the corridor and the stairs turned, he saw Shen Xiu standing by the window, looking coldly at the heavy snow outside the window.
Sensing someone's gaze behind him, Shen Xiu turned around the moment Shang Yu saw him.
Seeing that it was Shang Yu, Shen Xiu's guard disappeared and he was the first to say hello: "Good morning."
Shen Xiu discovered that not only Shen Xiu had benefits.
for example--
Fortunately, although he is socially anxious, he can force himself to speak skillfully in social situations, instead of being like him before when he was just Shen Xiu, always remaining silent because he didn't know what to say, making the atmosphere very awkward.
Shang Yu: "...Good morning."
Even though he knew that Shen Xiu was sharp, but... he had just stepped so lightly, without making any sound, and had just appeared here, but he was discovered and locked onto by Shen Xiu the next moment.
Compared with Shen Xiu's, his vigilance is nothing.
Shang Yu couldn't imagine how strict and cruel the training Shen Xiu's family had given him to make him so powerful.
But Chen Xiu didn't seem willing to mention it. Everyone has their own secrets. Shang Yu didn't have the habit of prying into other people's privacy, so he didn't ask too many questions.
"Ah, Shang Yu, you got up so early too?" Mu Zhenchu came out of the room and saw Shang Yu standing at the stairs without moving. He was curious: "Why don't you go down?"
Shang Yu thought that someone had arrived earlier than them, and said, "No big deal, go down now."
Butler Shen came out of the kitchen with a comforting smile on his face: "Everyone, breakfast will be ready soon."
We went to bed early yesterday, so everyone got up earlier today than usual at home. After having breakfast together, it was only nine o'clock in the morning.
After eating and rinsing their mouths, they sat on the sofa and chatted casually while looking out the window at the heavy snow that was still falling and showed no sign of stopping.
"It's snowing heavily outside. Can we still go out to see your pet today?"
Several people have lived here from yesterday to today, and no signs of pets have been seen.
I guessed in my heart that Shen Xiu's pet might be kept somewhere else.
Shen Xiu said with certainty: "Yes."
"Wait a moment." Shen Xiu finished speaking and sent a message on his phone.
Not long after, Fang Heng appeared in front of everyone holding Lucky.
Fang Heng really wanted to put Lucky down, but Lucky grabbed his clothes and refused to let go, insisting on staying on him.
Fang Heng could only awkwardly appear in front of Shen Xiu and explain: “Mr. Shen, it won’t go down.”
Thinking of how Lucky turned over his belly and winked at him, he thought that Lucky was really good at it, and he almost couldn't help rubbing it.
But thinking that this was Shen Xiu's cat, Fang Heng held back and didn't dare to touch it.
Xiang Yueting blurted out: "Prove that it likes you!"
Fang Heng subconsciously looked at Chen Xiu nervously, afraid that Chen Xiu would misunderstand that he was coveting his cat.
Meeting Fang Heng's gaze, Shen Xiu glanced at Lucky and responded: "...Yeah."
Shen Xiu didn't have the heart to tell Fang Heng not to be nervous, he didn't mind.
Besides, the reason why Lucky sticks to him is because he is just like Zhuang Yi, too reserved.
Lucky likes to stay around people who are reserved and resist touching him, because it feels challenging.
It has nothing to do with liking someone.
In Lucky's eyes, people like him who can't control their hands are worthless except for the time they spend holding freeze-dried and canned food.
"In five minutes, head to the greenhouse."
Fang Heng nodded: "Okay."
Fang Heng left, and Chen Xiu held Lucky, who had failed to conquer Fang Heng and had temporarily returned to his arms. He couldn't help but stroke his fur while explaining to his confused friends.
"Lucky's brothers and sisters are kept in there."
Lucky brothers and sisters?
Hearing Shen Xiu's address, everyone became more resolute in their previous thoughts.
Sure enough, just as they thought, Chen Xiu must have adopted a group of stray cats like Lucky.
Fifteen minutes later, the group got off the car and looked at the place in front of them, which was bigger than a zoo and had no end in sight. It was surrounded by transparent materials and they began to doubt their previous guesses.
In the enclosed space, the vegetation is not as lush as in summer, but it is about the same as in autumn.
Even when it was snowing heavily and the outside was covered with snow, there was no snow accumulated on the transparent wall, which obviously showed that there was a temperature control device inside.
Everyone doesn’t quite understand what kind of pets need such a place?
Before going in, Chen Xiu handed his clothes to Fang Heng, and looked at his friends while holding Lucky: "It's not cold inside, everyone can give their clothes to them."
A minute later, everyone took off their coats or down jackets and entered the transparent greenhouse wearing only turtleneck sweaters.
After entering, everyone discovered that the greenhouse was separated by several different entrances with transparent walls, which obviously contained different pets.
Before entering room 1, Shen Xiu handed Lucky to Zhuang Yi.
Thinking of the size of Ars, he reminded the friends who had not yet entered Room 1 through the round hole: "Don't be afraid, although Ars is big, it is very gentle..."
Roar... Roar...
Before Shen Xiu finished speaking, the roar of a ferocious beast reached everyone's ears, and Shen Xiu turned his head to look over.
The roar was accompanied by the trembling of the grass and trees. At the moment when everyone unconsciously tensed up, a huge lion rushed towards Shen Xiu...
What the hell is this!
Blocked by the transparent wall, everyone unconsciously tensed up.
In order to prevent Ars from scaring everyone, Shen Xiu spoke up: “Ars.”
The charging lion heard Shen Xiu's voice, braked suddenly, and stopped in front of Shen Xiu.
Before anyone could react, they saw the ferocious lions surrounding Shen Xiu, rubbing their oversized heads against Shen Xiu's arms in a coquettish manner.
Everyone: “…”
Keeping such a dangerous pet really needs to be locked up for the safety of others.
but--
Was its ferocious appearance just now an illusion?
Watching Ars acting like a spoiled child to Shen Xiu, the members of The Galaxy all uttered the same words in their minds at the same time - although it's weird, it's just right!
As expected, the Xiu scholars were the ones who knew Shen Xiu best, and Shen Xiu really did as they said, raising ferocious beasts as pets abroad.
"If anyone dares to say that the Xiu scholars' words are wrong in the future, I will be the first to disagree. They know the Xiu team better than we do..."
"Is this a male lion? Why is he so well behaved? I don't understand!"
"Perhaps... in the face of absolute force value, this is not surprising."
"Why think so much? It's not coming over. Should we broadcast this scene live? Give the fans a little shock."
After Xiang Yueting finished speaking, without waiting for others to speak, he asked Shen Xiu directly: "Captain Xiu, can you show Ars to the fans?"
Everyone: “…”
Really, many times, they really envied Xiang Yueting, who could say whatever he thought and live a simple and happy life.
Shen Xiu didn't mind: "Okay."
domestic.
The Galaxy were photographed traveling together to Yicheng on the same day, so netizens all knew that everyone was in Yicheng.
When Xiang Yueting's live broadcast room was opened, everyone thought that Xiang Yueting was broadcasting the snow scene in Yicheng to them.
Unexpectedly, when I clicked into the live broadcast room, I saw a lion with a majestic mane and a huge head, rolling in front of Shen Xiu, imitating a cat flipping its belly...
good evening!
