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

It's not that there's a problem with the plan, but Xie Qingyan is blocking her way. Xie Qingyan is both her boss and her older sister. If the relationship between Chairman Xie and Xu Shi remains strained, then everything she does will seem inappropriate.

She knew without even thinking that it would be a disaster, so she decided to forget about it.

Oh, poor me.

The curly-haired boy frowned, looking distressed.

The carriage was filled with the sullen atmosphere of a defeated dog.

……

Xu Shicai didn't care what Xie Qingyan and Ye Shanshan did; let those two wicked women worry about it themselves.

Anyway, he's never short of good sisters.

The little sister was a bit heavy, so he turned to look at Gu Yi, who was hanging on his back, and said irritably, "Get down from here! How old are you? Do you really need me to carry you? What will people think?"

The key point is obvious: this little rabbit has gotten fat and is showing signs of turning into a pig. So, where should I carry you? To the slaughterhouse?

Gu Yi snorted. She didn't deny that she had gained a little weight recently. With Sister Su Lin's cooking being so delicious and her not being very active, it would be strange if she didn't gain weight.

But the flesh has grown in the right places, and the clothes are tighter on the bust, not the waist, and also on the buttocks... She looks much better than before when she was malnourished, so she is very satisfied.

"Oh dear, doesn't this show that Chairman Xu cares about his subordinates?"

So she shamelessly clung to Xu Shi's back and wouldn't get off, "Let everyone see that you are actually a very good person, not a heartless and cold-blooded capitalist who exploits his subordinates."

"...Where did you learn all this from?"

Xu Shi found it amusing. He had never realized that Miss Black Rabbit was so quick-witted before. This girl was actually just being unreasonable and would cower at the slightest provocation.

It's probably Xia Ke'an. Although Gu Yi goes to "Feather Pen" every now and then to see the old man for self-cultivation, I don't think Wen Shengkui could teach her these things.

On the contrary, the older woman is quite experienced in this regard. Although the two of them pinch each other's cheeks and pull each other's hair every day, their relationship is actually not bad.

"Just tell me if you're the former or the latter?"

Gu Yi hugged his neck. "Or do you think our relationship is something to be ashamed of? You haven't even gone shopping with me... I've been busy with your things for over a month, and you're still acting like this, I'm going to get angry."

That's true. Almost a month has passed since the riots ended, and Miss Black Rabbit has only just had a little free time today.

She has completed the basic framework of the joint security system of Sin City and Night City. The test results are surprisingly good. The city hall and the four major conglomerates have found many experts to try to break through it, but they can't even make a small opening.

All that's left is to fill the skeleton with flesh and blood. She doesn't need to do all that herself; I'll do it for free!

"Here, take this."

As she spoke, she handed a bracelet to Xu Shi, "With this, once the security system is fully completed, you can monitor any corner of Night Sin City whenever you need it."

"Okay, hard work."

Xu Shi had no doubt about her abilities and carefully put it away.

It is said that internal stability must precede external defense. With the day of departure drawing ever closer, the stability of Night City becomes even more crucial.

In this situation, the loss of any puzzle piece brings him some peace of mind.

Gu Yi gave a smug hum, and intentionally or unintentionally blew a couple of breaths into his ear, "You'll shop to your heart's content with me today, so this reward isn't too much to ask, is it?"

Xu Shi was itching to do something with her little actions. Goodness, this old aunt really taught you something... Looking at Gu Yi, the wild little delinquent girl had now become a bit more charming.

"Hey, what are you saying? Is this just my problem?"

However, he wasn't about to lose his composure because of such a small trick. He said righteously, "Isn't it your long-held wish to bring about change in Sin City?"

Miss Black Rabbit couldn't deny that what that bastard Xu said was true; seeing Sin City thriving now, she was indeed the happiest person.

Because of her indispensable efforts, she can even openly put her name on it... This is fundamentally different from the sense of accomplishment she felt when she was a hacker.

In the past, engaging in criminal activities and leaving one's name on the run was indeed thrilling, but there was also the fear of being caught. Now, however, there is no such fear; one can act openly and honestly.

Xu Shi's contribution to this cannot be ignored.

But she wouldn't say it like that: "I don't care, you have to come with me, come on, come on."

He would definitely go. Xu Shi knew he had neglected her lately, and based on that alone, he wouldn't really refuse.

Mr. Xu, a good man, is not the kind of person who is fickle; he's more like a combination of fickle and easygoing. His main principle is to treat everyone equally.

However, they couldn't actually carry her on their backs, so in the end, the two of them just didn't drive and went shopping in the 15th district like a young couple.

"Wow, it's been so long since I've been out!"

Gu Yi clung to Xu Shi's arm, refusing to let go. "If it weren't for you, you rascal Xu, being with me, I wouldn't feel quite right."

That's true. There is indeed a "rust fog" hanging overhead outside, but at least there is an artificial lighting system, which is different from being in the dark basement.

"That's right, your hair has grown long."

Xu Shi even sensed that the little black rabbit was shrouded in a layer of black mist, which gradually disappeared after they went outside. He couldn't help but sigh, "Other people have hair that reaches their waist, but you have hair that reaches your hips... Shall I go with you to get it cut?"

"is it necessary?"

Gu Yi blinked. "These pigtails look pretty good... Some people like this style, so I'll keep them."

"Why do you think so?"

Xu Shi became curious. Twin tails are cute, but he wasn't actually that into that aspect.

"Is not it?"

Miss Black Rabbit snorted, "That little one also has long hair, almost down to his heels, and you didn't say anything... I see you like it a lot, you always use it to tie your hair up for fun."

Have it?

Xu Shi thought about it carefully and realized it was true. When he was alone with Xia Ke'an, she would usually lean against him, and he would play with her white fur. Over time, it had become a habit...

But that's because you always have to find something to do with your hands, right? The old lady's usual little girl image is really nothing special, so she can't just lewdly stick her hands inside her clothes... He'd find it uncomfortable, and the feeling of guilt would be really strong.

It depends on the situation, so we can't generalize. If it were someone else, they probably wouldn't hesitate to grope them.

While he was thinking, he glanced at Gu Yi and was surprised to find that the little rabbit seemed to have developed a bit? But it was only at the level of growing from a chicken head to a fried egg; essentially, it was still a little puppy.

"Okay, keep it if you like."

So he quickly concluded that if he dyed it light green and added two scallions, it would be more than enough for a cosplay.

"Tch, you're shy now?"

Miss Black Rabbit patted him on the back casually, "Just say you like it, that's all there is to it! 'I like it,' how hypocritical! Ugh~"

"Inspection Bureau!"

Xu Shi didn't spoil her and suddenly shouted.

"Mom!"

Gu Yi reacted instinctively, darting behind him and peeking out half her head to cautiously observe the situation.

It took her several seconds to realize, wait a minute, I don't think I should have stopped worrying about this problem a long time ago...

"Xu Shi, you bastard! What are you yelling about?!"

She was furious and rushed forward to bite, how embarrassing!

Xu Shi's wicked scheme succeeded, and he laughed heartily.

"...I'm ignoring you."

Gu Yi couldn't beat him in a fight, and she didn't want to let him go on his own, so she could only sullenly shake his arm.

"I was planning to buy you a new outfit as a reward for accompanying me shopping... but I'm not buying it now."

"Oh? Tell me more about your new clothes."

Xu Shi became interested upon hearing this.

Miss Black Rabbit turned her face away from him.

The truth is, that little bit of flirtation before she left wasn't unfounded; she really wanted to provoke someone... It's been over a month since we last had any.

I saw a new pink choker before, and I bought one black and one white pair of stockings to wear together.

"Almost got it."

Xu Shi hardened his face. "Don't forget that some people still owe 'Snake Ring' a lot of credit points. Isn't your allowance given to you by me? You're using the money I gave you to reward me? So you're owing me favors now?"

"so?"

Gu Yi looked at him with an expression that said, "What can you do about it?"

"If you're going to buy, buy two sets."

……

The two couldn't really have a cold war, so they ended up buying three sets.

When I paid the bill and left, the way I looked at the other person seemed a little off.

"Are you happy?"

Xu asked in a cheeky tone.

"Of course I'm happy."

Miss Black Rabbit didn't deny it, but she also showed a little arrogance, "I'm happy because I can grind a new game tonight, what does that have to do with you?"

"Not a new position? Not a new position? Not a new position?"

I don't know what you're talking about.

The two of them, one teasing the other, left the mall with bags and packages. After walking a few steps, they saw a "Snake Ring" SUV parked beside them.

"...You guys are having a lot of fun."

The car window rolled down, and Xia Wuyou, in the driver's seat, took off his goggles. "Want a ride, you two?"

Simply open an impart, and then... it's time for Shen He's little sister to be back in top form!
