In this cyberpunk era, why are you still playing the traditional villain?

"Don't cry, don't cry."

Xu Shi comforted him, "Besides... don't call me that, you can be more affectionate."

"Then...Master?"

"Ok?"

"You're kidding."

Jiang Chengcheng stopped crying and started laughing, rubbing her nose. "Xu Shi, are you hungry? Let's eat together."

"Now that you mention it, I'm really hungry."

Xu Shi nodded. "But we can't order takeout now, and restaurants might not be open, right?"

That's true. Although these wealthy neighborhoods weren't affected by the war too much, it was inevitable that related services would be paralyzed.

Why order takeout?

Jiang Chengcheng tilted her head. "I'll cook it for you."

Oh?

Xu Shi raised an eyebrow, thinking to himself, "You had this trick up your sleeve?"

Jiang Chengcheng really does have one.

Although she's a tech geek, that doesn't mean she lives on instant noodles every day. Before long, a delicious meal is ready, and it's just as good as her best friend's in terms of color, aroma, and taste.

"Come and try it!"

Jiang Chengcheng also opened a bottle of good wine, saying, "I've never cooked for anyone before."

"Then I would be honored."

Xu Shi chuckled and then began to enjoy his meal.

Jiang Chengcheng sat to the side, resting her head on her hand, looking at him with a happy expression. "Does the taste suit your palate?"

"very nice."

Xu Shi didn't hold back his praise, "Why don't you move in with me? You and Su Lin each have your own strengths."

"That's too greedy. I'm not going."

Jiang Chengcheng laughed even more happily, "It's not as fun as sharing a roof with them as it is to enjoy yourself all to yourself here?"

Xu Shi opened his mouth, as if to say, "Is that how it feels?"

Didn't a certain kid surnamed Xia say something similar before? Even the purpose was almost the same.

You two really are the kind of people who can hold hands... But let's not even talk about them, he himself also felt that he was very different from usual.

It's not about the specifics; in his eyes, the girls around him don't discriminate based on closeness or distance. But being alone with Jiang Chengcheng, especially in a different place, just looked like an affair...

Especially since Jiang Chengcheng does have more tricks up her sleeve than others in certain aspects, which makes her even more like the character...

As they were talking, a new trick came up. She stood up, half-undressed, crossed one arm over her chest, grabbed the bottle of red wine on the table with the other, and poured it into the cleavage she had created.

"Don't just eat the food, have some wine too."

A hint of allure appeared in Jiang Chengcheng's eyes.

Xu Shi unconsciously swallowed. Good heavens, how come I never noticed you were so big before? No, the truth is, she wasn't small to begin with, it's just that her clothes weren't usually very form-fitting, so it didn't show…

"I am the main course, my master."

Jiang Chengcheng's eyes narrowed into crescent moons, and her tone was so sweet it could melt your bones.

At this point, such a form of address didn't matter. Xu Shi didn't bother pretending to be a gentleman and took a sip.

"Aren't Arlene and the others still at home... Aren't you going back to take care of them?"

Jiang Chengcheng let out a long sigh and spoke indistinctly.

"Are you trying to provoke me?"

Xu Shi put his arm around her waist, his voice becoming more stern.

"How can there be..."

Jiang Chengcheng refused to admit it.

"We're not going back. We're going to steal everything today."

Xu Shi didn't argue, but his hands became even more restless. "We'll talk after I've punished you, you bad dog."

Jiang Chengcheng closed her eyes, letting him pull her into his arms.

Wow, everyone's up so early! (Just kidding)

It's 6 AM here. Let's see if I can write another chapter...

By the way, just for your information, Jiang Chengcheng's move is called "Kuri-chan Wine," but it's a variation.

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 175 The strong must ruthlessly humiliate the weak!

It feels really good to sneak out and eat behind someone's back.

The next morning, Xu Shi woke up in an unfamiliar bed with Jiang Chengcheng in his arms. His first thought was to find a cigarette.

It was a real cathartic release.

"Do you feel better?"

Jiang Chengcheng had already woken up, and stretched out her little hand to circle his chest, saying, "I feel like you've accumulated quite a bit."

Xu Shi couldn't refute it, but he couldn't help rolling his eyes. He had indeed been under a lot of pressure lately and had things to do... He believed that Jiang Chengcheng meant the same thing, but what you said could easily cause ambiguity and would corrupt the children, you dirty girl.

"Are you busy today? If not, could you spend some more time with me?"

Jiang Chengcheng didn't care at all; she just wanted to stay in Xu Shi's arms a little longer.

"...Yes, there really is. We need to go to the city hall for a meeting."

Xu Shi smiled apologetically, "The major conglomerates have agreed to reach a conclusion on this mess as soon as possible."

It might sound a bit rushed, but no one wanted to risk any unforeseen complications. The bloodstains on the street hadn't dried yet, but that didn't prevent everyone from dividing up the spoils of victory.

Xu Shi meant the same thing, but not for any other reason than to force Tang Shuang into the role. After all, only the governor of the city hall could sit at the table outside of the four major conglomerates. So, are you coming or not?

"Ok."

Jiang Chengcheng pouted, looking a little disappointed but also understanding. "Then have breakfast before you leave? I'll make you something. What do you want to eat?"

"Just something simple, like two fried eggs with bread, runny yolks on one side?"

"I'll fry three for you, to help you nourish yourself."

Jiang Chengcheng kissed him and got up to make breakfast.

Feeling the lingering warmth left by the girl, Xu Shi sighed inwardly.

Would you say she's really suitable to be a lover? She's soft, gentle, and understanding, and she can always add a little excitement from time to time... The key is that she's very content, okay? And there's no need to worry about her competing for favor or anything like that.

Shouldn't it be okay? She's so well-behaved...

Ok.

Regardless of whether Jiang Chengcheng is well-behaved or not, there is someone whose behavior today is unexpectedly well-behaved.

"Hey, good morning! Have you had breakfast yet?"

After breakfast, Xu Shi arrived at the city hall and bumped into Xie Qingyan, who looked radiant. The slut greeted her warmly with a beaming smile.

"It seems our Chairman Xu hasn't had enough rest... Should we postpone the meeting for two days?"

While she was enthusiastic, there was also a strong sense of mockery in her words, not only towards her nominal fiancé but also towards Su Lin, who was standing next to him.

The truth is that Director Su didn't get a good night's sleep either, but she couldn't avoid accompanying her to these meetings, and she even had to pick up her young master from Jiang Chengcheng's place first... It all seemed rather miserable.

Especially now that others have misunderstood her, she doesn't know what to say. Should she explain herself? She can only lower her head and remain silent.

"Okay."

Xu Shi smiled and retorted sarcastically, "I see you're getting a good rest, Qingyan... Isn't it much easier now that you're not plotting anything behind my back?"

"It seems so."

Xie Qingyan was surprised that he didn't argue with her, but instead agreed with a slightly aggrieved tone, "What, in your eyes, am I just someone who does dirty tricks behind people's backs?"

"I didn't say that."

Xu Shi spread his hands, looking extremely innocent.

"roll."

Xie Qingyan rolled her eyes at him.

In fact, she was probably even happier than Xu Shi, since Prism had truly won without lifting a finger this time—medical support and such were nothing compared to the energy-consuming direct combat, yet they hadn't lost any of their profits.

That's why she didn't want to argue with Xu Shi. There was nothing wrong with being a docile kitten for a few days... Even if Xu Shi was sarcastic, she could just let him be sarcastic and pretend she didn't hear it.

However, she also had to admit that she couldn't help teasing the other person purely out of jealousy.

This is hard to describe—Chairman Xie believes that after so many years as the president of the conglomerate, his heart is as cold as a scalpel, but recently, his attitude towards Xu Shishi has become increasingly strange.

If he were truly a rotten playboy to the core, Xie Qingyan wouldn't mind even if he had a hundred girls partying. But this guy is becoming more and more outstanding, and without realizing it, he has even reached his peak. It's hard for her to ignore his private life anymore.

After all, she was Xu Shi's fiancée, so seeing him being affectionate with other girls made her even more unhappy.

But it seems even stranger that you're trying to stop it, since you've never interfered before... Won't that make you seem a bit pathetic?

Ok……

Fortunately, now was not the time to dwell on this, so Xie Qingyan did not continue. Instead, she brought up some serious matters, "Can I handle Boss He? That guy dared to betray his own side. I want to teach him a lesson myself."

"No problem, the person is still with Qi Maoyang, you can just go and ask for him."

Xu Shi was indifferent to this, but felt sympathy for He Yuzhao's impending ordeal.

Although he hadn't paid much attention, he knew very well that this woman's methods when she got angry were extraordinary. At least the first three chapters mentioned in the original work were quite explosive. Judging from her petty and gritting-toothed look, Boss He would definitely not get the better of her.
