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

Xu Shi wasn't in a hurry to leave. "I have some private matters to discuss with Chief Yue. Would it be convenient for you to wait for me outside?"

"...Hurry up!"

Tang Shuang rolled her eyes at him, thinking to herself, "You and she are completely unrelated, what private matters could you possibly have? You womanizer, could it be that you've taken a fancy to her? Enough already..." But she didn't ask any further questions, just made a small complaint.

"okay."

Xu Shi readily agreed, but then turned around, closed the door, and moved closer to Lin Yue, scrutinizing her with great interest.

"You did a good job... Looks like you did what I told you to do."

"Ugh...you're bullying me..."

Lin Yue nestled into his arms, "We're discussing serious business here. How could you let someone do something like this... What if we get caught?"

She was so embarrassed. Everything had gone so well a few days ago, but before she came today, her wicked owner suddenly sent her some strange things and insisted that she bring them herself...

Otherwise, would she have lost her composure like this? Wasn't it just Xu Shi playing a prank on her?

That's why I said you did a good job.

Xu Shi looked completely innocent. "Besides, you can tell me if you don't want to. I won't force you."

"Humph."

Lin Yue pretended to be angry and turned her head away, thinking to herself, "Give me a break! Do you think you can agree if I say I don't want to? It's even more impossible for him not to do as I say. Don't forget that he can keep an eye on me at any time through his good sister."

Fortunately, it was just a slight stumble; if I had really lost control, it would have been incredibly embarrassing...

Despite feeling ashamed, upon closer reflection, she actually found it quite exciting.

This is the power of "entropy of evil thoughts". The little assassin sister not only became a masochist, but she also would not go against Xu Shi's wishes. To put it bluntly, this can be called servility. However, after experiencing everything before, this force is the deepest in her body.

Oh, poor child.

"Owner……"

So Lin Yue just wanted to act cute and looked at Xu Shi pitifully, "You've done this to me... you have to take responsibility."

"It's too late, I have to leave now."

Xu Shi, however, had a wicked idea and shook his head regretfully, "Just bear with it, we'll talk about it next time."

"When will that be?"

Lin Yue persisted.

"That……"

Xu Shi raised his right hand thoughtfully.

Lin Yue knew what he meant and said impatiently, "Hurry up..."

……

"Oh, you've finished discussing your private matters?"

Tang Shuang waited in the car for a while before seeing Xu Shi slowly emerge, and her tone inevitably became sour.

"Yeah, you know, she used to be with 'Spark,' but later she turned to the light... I was thinking about something and chatted with her about it."

Xu Shi casually took out a handkerchief and wiped his hands. "Isn't it still the important matter? Are you completely at ease now?"

"really."

Director Tang wasn't the type to be sentimental all the time; when it came to business, he immediately became serious. "I was worried they might not cooperate... but it turned out to be much smoother than I expected."

"There's nothing we can do; our Governor-General Tang has a lot of influence."

"Come on, you're just showing off."

Tang Shuang shook her head. This wasn't flattery; it was the honest truth. Even a fool could see that the people of Sin City clearly respected him more. If she were to do it herself, the effect would be much less.

If I remember correctly, Shen He, one of the troublemakers, was caught by Lin Yue herself? She sent the "Snake Ring" first, not to her. Thinking about it, they do have some personal relationship... I wonder what that bad man promised her.

Thinking about it, she felt a little emotional. No matter how much she was threatened or bribed, she wouldn't have done it. Maybe having a low moral standard has its advantages.

Tsk.

"A good solution is one that can solve the problem."

Xu Shi shrugged and said, "Don't forget to tell Yu Xingchuan to behave herself too."

“With me watching her, she won’t dare to do anything reckless.”

Tang Shuang wasn't worried about that; she was more concerned about other things. "By the way, your community service will end tomorrow."

"Hmm, what's wrong?"

Xu Shi pretended not to understand.

"Then... you won't be coming here often anymore, right?"

As the car drew closer to the inspection bureau, Tang Shuang could only hope that the road would be longer.

"Look at what you're saying, it's not like it's a matter of life and death."

Xu Shi was both amused and exasperated. "Can't I come if I don't do community service? If not, come find me. The governor has given the order, and no one dares to disobey."

"I was looking for you?"

Tang Shuang blinked and tentatively asked, "Won't the others be unhappy?"

"How do you know if you don't try?"

"Forget it, just have a little bit of conscience."

Tang Shuang sighed. Actually, she was quite carefree in this regard, lingering but not greedy. "Besides, it's okay if you don't come. I have some in stock."

As she spoke, she waved her communication bracelet.

"...When did you take this picture?"

Xu Shi was shocked to see that the room was full of his own photos.

"I took this secretly. It wasn't for nothing that I made you change clothes every day these past few days."

Tang Shuang smiled shyly. The only good thing about the Inspection Bureau was the variety of uniforms. Apart from winter coats, she had Xu Shi change into almost every kind of uniform.

This might be what they mean by "no more than eight sets of everyday clothes for all four seasons." (doge)

I feel like I'm being taken advantage of.

Xu Shi feigned regret and said, "I should have kept a few for you as souvenirs too."

"Hehe, no chance."

Tang Shuang stuck out her tongue. "I'll be officially stepping down next week, so wearing this anymore won't be in accordance with the rules."

"But... if you want to see it, come find me. I'll wear it for you, and only you can see it."

"You've become the older sister again?"

Xu Shi glared at her, and his groping hands began to wander.

"Get your dirty hands off me, are you trying to get yourself killed?"

Tang Shuang, though saying one thing but meaning another, said, "Don't move... How about I treat you to a meal later? It'll be a reward for your excellent performance these past few days?"

"I'll leave this on credit for now."

Xu Shi shook his head. "I already have plans for tonight."

"Oh? With whom?"

"Don't tell you."

"You love to talk but don't talk."

Tang Shuang snorted, and the car stopped right in front of the inspection bureau. "If you don't want to eat, then get out of here. Who wants to keep you here?"

This also gives her time to plan how to "borrow" this philandering bad man to the Inspection Bureau next time—oh no, next time it could be the City Hall.

She was about to return to the city hall to organize the documents she had just received, and after a reluctant departure, she left.

Poor Chairman Xu could only watch her leave, shaking his head with a sense of lingering regret.

then.

He casually walked to a corner and pulled out Director Su, who was hiding in the shadows.

"Master?"

Su Lin was clearly surprised that he had found her so accurately, and was momentarily taken aback. "You..."

"What do you mean, 'you'?"

Xu Shi looked at him with an accusatory expression, "What were you planning to do by following me these past few days?"

The daily routine is almost over, and the new main storyline will soon begin.

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 189 I was just watching the show, what did I do to deserve this?

"Hey hey hey hey hey?"

Su Lin, caught in the act of following someone, panicked.

She had been hoping for the best, thinking the young master hadn't noticed her... but now things had turned out this way. She hadn't even realized she should have run away first and then casually driven to pick him up.

"You haven't been acting right lately... I need an explanation."

Xu Shi looked at her with interest and said, "Or perhaps you might need to take a long vacation to rest?"

"No, that won't be necessary..."

Director Su composed himself. "I... I was just worried about you, young master. You wouldn't let me send anyone to protect you, so... I had no choice but to..."

Are you relieved now?

Xu Shi smiled, but also felt a little sentimental.

Well, how should I put it? Her behavior gives the impression of a parent who says they want their child to go out and explore on their own, but is secretly watching over them out of concern.
