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

It has to be said that girls who have completed their sexual encounters seem to be like this. They don't need to say much; they can resolve the knots in their hearts by filling in the blanks with their own minds, especially after giving their bodies to him.

"Alright, it's getting late, our Moon Chief should head back now."

Xu Shi didn't know what she was thinking, but he knew that the two of them couldn't stay here forever. After their tender moment, they got down to business. "The situation in Sin City is still unstable, and we need you to stay and oversee things."

"Master, do you have any instructions?"

Lin Yue was quite sensible; upon hearing this, she immediately sought his opinion.

"I already told you not to call me that... never mind."

Xu Shi thought about it and didn't stop her. He told her the situation, "According to the results of the discussion among the four major conglomerates, Night City will carry out a large-scale transformation in Sin City in the future, and the gap between the two cities will gradually be broken down."

"This is real?"

Lin Yue was somewhat incredulous. She was born and raised in Sin City, and her greatest wish was to eradicate the shady dealings and dirty deeds of Sin City, and she did not want others to suffer the same hardships she had endured.

And that's exactly what she did. At least under her rule, the Sixth District is now a breath of fresh air in Sin City.

"This issue was first raised by 'Feather Pen,' so there's no need to worry that it's just a temporary fix."

Xu Shi added, "Even if that's the case, I'll keep an eye on them. Don't worry."

"Well, thank you, Master."

Now that things have come to this, Lin Yue no longer doubts him, not only because of her loyalty to him, but also because she knows that Xu Shi is currently the most authoritative figure in Night Sin City, so she doesn't have to worry about him saying one thing and doing another.

As she spoke, she felt like crying again. Was this her wish about to be fulfilled?

Ironically, Shen He, who said this every day, not only failed to do so, but also left her with the impression of letting the floodwaters rage.

On the contrary, Xu Shi never said anything, but he actually carried it all out...

"Why are you crying? I don't remember you being a crybaby."

Xu Shi smiled and comforted him, "Cheer up, you'll have a lot to do later."

"You don't need to worry about the coordination; I can handle everything for you."

He instructed earnestly, "But before that, consolidate as much territory as possible in Sin City, prioritizing those with resources. Don't let the 'White Iron' gang seize the initiative; ideally, squeeze them out of their way..."

"This is not only for me, but more importantly for yourself. In any case, a Sin City with only one voice is the most harmonious Sin City, understand?"

"Lin Yue understands."

The assassin girl nodded repeatedly, like a chick pecking at rice—something she'd been doing lately. "And what about the 'Longsword Gang'?"

"Ding Jun is also one of my men, so don't worry."

Xu Shi smiled and said, "Besides, his heart may not stay in Sin City. It shouldn't be long before I make him voluntarily transfer the Seventh and Tenth Districts to you."

That's true. After the riots, it was Ding Jun who took the initiative to contact him. This kid still wanted to come to Night City to develop and progress. In this respect, he and Lin Yue are fundamentally different.

"Yes."

Lin Yue was also happy to see it happen; a bloodless handover is always better.

She took the initiative to kiss Xu Shi, and then slowly got up and started to put on her clothes.

"Don't forget to take your sister with you, Chief Moon."

Xu Shi admired it while making a teasing remark.

"Is this... still necessary...?"

Lin Yue hesitated.

"Let her stay with you; she's a force to be reckoned with."

Xu Shi smiled and said, "I can't go to Sin City often, so having her around will make it easier for you to contact me."

"Besides, you're probably more used to this way of getting along, aren't you?"

"Oh."

Lin Yue smiled sheepishly. It was true; if she returned without bringing her sister back, it would be difficult to explain to "Spark" as well.

He really thought of everything...

Xu Shi watched her leave with Lin Xing, and then lingered for a while before leisurely getting up.

Su Lin, who was waiting outside, complained as usual, "Shouldn't we congratulate the young master again?"

"Shouldn't you congratulate me? Being so sour will give you wrinkles."

"Whoever is jealous... Young Master, say whatever you want."

Su Lin paused for a moment and quickly changed her words, "I also have something to discuss with you."

"what's wrong?"

"Well, tonight, could you...?"

Su Lin took a deep breath and mustered her courage to extend the invitation.

Unfortunately, he was interrupted halfway through his sentence by a sudden phone call.

"Wait a minute."

Xu Shi waved his hand, "Hello? Who is this? Oh, it's our Director Tang, no, it's Governor Tang, right? Hmph..."

"..."

Su Lin was so angry she wanted to die.

Are you guys ever going to stop?!

The bonus chapter for the patron will probably be on Monday or Tuesday. I need to see the doctor this weekend because of a toothache...

The reason I haven't seen comments lately is because of the college entrance exams, not because I deleted them. Please understand.

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 182 Come with me for a walk?

Almost got it!

These are all the thoughts in Miss Su Lin's mind right now.

Being abruptly interrupted before one has finished speaking is rather absurd.

The thing is, this isn't the first time! Last time in the office, it felt like the young master was about to kiss her, but then Jiang Chengcheng suddenly interfered... You guys usually don't seem to have such good timing.

Of course, there are exceptions. When he accompanied Xu Shi to Sin City to capture Gu Yi, no one bothered him. But at that time, Director Su had not yet determined his feelings. Faced with the young master's teasing, he felt only shame and indignation and had no other thoughts at all.

As a result, he never encountered such a good opportunity again. What is this called? It's like regretting something only after it's gone?

She wondered if she was under some strange curse, and the little voice in her mind squatted on the ground drawing circles.

He stood there for a long time, looking lost and muttering to himself, before finally finishing his call and returning.

"Was it Tang Shuang who called you?"

Su Lin didn't know what to say, so she asked the question knowing the answer already.

"Yes, it's probably some issues concerning the details of the subsequent governance of Night City. They keep going on and on, it's giving me a headache."

Xu Shi sighed, "I've made an appointment with her, and I'm afraid I'll have to go to the city hall every day for the next few days to talk to her in person."

"Oh."

Su Lin nodded. "Then I'll go back and change your schedule for you. I'll handle some of the less important things for you. Is that alright?"

"Well, that's all for you."

Xu Shi had long been accustomed to Director Su's way of doing things. In fact, even now, he had never had to worry about most of the trivial matters himself, so he was happy to delegate authority to her.

"By the way, what did you say about what happened tonight? I didn't hear you clearly."

After explaining everything, he belatedly remembered this incident.

"what……"

Su Lin wanted to finish what she had just said, but she stopped herself at the last second.

To be honest, she felt conflicted.

If it weren't for Lin Yue's incident, things might have been fine, but now she suddenly realized that Xu Shi was not short of women; there were probably more women around him than she had imagined. Didn't she see Tang Shuang appear now...?

So, shouldn't I make my feelings clear as soon as possible? It's hard to say how the young master will react, but even if he refuses, it will save me from any unforeseen complications.

Otherwise, if things drag on, you might not even have a place left... Feelings are fickle, so making the most of every second is the only way to go.

But then again, Tang Shuang had important business to discuss with Xu Shi, while my invitation to dinner was just a trivial matter. The young master was at a crucial juncture where he needed to solidify his position, so wouldn't it be a bad idea to distract him with something like this?

That's the kind of person she is; she easily puts her own affairs in the least important position. Of course, this only applies when she's facing Xu Shi. In front of others, she's very authoritative.

So she changed her tune in the end, "Nothing, I just wanted to ask... what would you like to eat tonight?"

She can't change what has already happened, but delaying it for three to five days shouldn't have any impact... right?

She chose to comfort herself with an excuse that even she couldn't believe.

"Why would you need to ask me about something like this?"

Xu Shi was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and waved his hand, "It's up to you to decide. Hasn't it always been like this all these years?"

"Yes."

Su Lin gave an awkward laugh. "So... shall we go home now?"

"Okay, let's go."

Xu Shi turned his neck, looked at her with a smile, and a subtle, almost imperceptible glint flashed in his eyes.

……

The next day.

"Good morning, Governor Tang."

Xu Shi arrived at the city hall early in the morning. He was still very concerned about the development details of Night Sin City. Even if Tang Shuang didn't look for him, he still had to keep an eye on things.

Who can we rely on anyone else? They were all very enthusiastic when it came to dividing up the spoils, but when it came to actually doing the work, they were nowhere to be seen. The only exception was Old Master Wen, but unfortunately, the old man was willing but unable to do so, and he is currently recuperating.
