It's the cyber age now, and you're still playing traditional villains?

"Don't say it!"

The white-haired queen was startled and quickly reached out to cover her mouth, "I'll spank you if you tell anyone! It's all your fault!"

Xia Wuyou stuck out her tongue, looking innocent.

This is how people are contagious. The first time, her reaction wasn't much better than the other person's. But now, times have changed and she has become the one who leads others into the trap. Moreover, she quite liked the atmosphere yesterday. It was indeed different...

She really was taking care of Xia Ke'an. Although the old aunt was older, her experience in this area was not as good as hers. To be honest, it was not an exaggeration to call Xia Xiaomao "sister".

"You... forget it, just this once, it won't happen again."

The white-haired queen felt aggrieved, but it was useless to say anything since things had already happened.

She was even a little thankful. This was actually fine. Based on her state last night, it was already commendable that she didn't do anything more outrageous...

Xu Shi couldn't help but almost laughed out loud.

In fact, he had already woken up, and he just wanted to give them some space to talk alone.

As for why I want to laugh, it's because of some interesting little tricks in my mind... The most intuitive one is probably that when doing that, Xia Ke'an suddenly switches her form, changing back from the queen form...

Of course, this is just a thought and it has not been put into practice yet. The intensity of the new arrival is already quite high. If I pull it up further, I'm afraid the old lady really won't be able to withstand it and it will bulge out, right?

But based on Xia Ke'an's situation yesterday, it would probably only take a word. If I were a little more forceful, she might just agree without thinking...

"…So you are awake!"

This little action still couldn't be hidden from the old aunt's mental power. After she returned to normal, she naturally noticed it at the first moment.

Then he punched him, "You are the biggest bastard! Still pretending to sleep!"

Xu Shi felt so wronged. Didn't I take your feelings into consideration? You took my kindness as the liver and lungs of a donkey.

But as he was feeling aggrieved, he suddenly sat up. Did he forget something important?

"Wuyou, how is the matter I asked you to do going?"

"So you really forgot, right?!"

Xia Xiaomao was full of questions, "Next time, can you please prioritize things?"

"Huh? Who was it that rushed into my arms as soon as he came yesterday?"

"You were the one who was shameless with her first, right?"

Xia Wuyou refuted, but after thinking it over, he felt that it was a mess, so he talked about the business, "Don't worry, the things have been shipped here, and the reconstruction of Yinsong Island is also going smoothly."

Xu Shi nodded and said, that's fine.

He asked Xia Wuyou to come, naturally, to fulfill another promise he made to Dongfang Xiao, which was to develop the Hualan Empire.

Development is inseparable from materials and technology, so it is inevitable that some of them will have to be transferred from Yinsong Island.

"In fact, you should go and take a good look. Sister Chengcheng has already built some small pilot factories with the people on the island, so I specially selected some of the finished products and brought them here, including daily utensils and weapons. This will surely make your words more convincing."

Xu Shi's eyes lit up. He really didn't expect Xia Wuyou to be so thoughtful. She was definitely a good wife.

He didn't know much about the details of Silver Pine Island's development these days - his mind was focused on the Cat Cult.

"Then let's go and take a look together later?"

"Who's going with you? Go find Sister Chengcheng yourself."

Xia Wuyou pretended to be disgusted and turned to look at Xia Ke'an, "Let's go shopping together? Not with this bastard."

"……OK."

Xia Ke'an quickly agreed. She knew that the other party was missing the days when they used to sneak out to play together.

It just so happened that she missed him too. She didn’t want to deal with such a thing with Xu Shi, this bad father, no, this bad guy!

Yes, little Ke'an has grown up now and has grown strong enough to fly!

The two of them moved unexpectedly fast. Before Xu Shi could react, they had already changed their clothes and left.

Looking at their backs, Xu Shi suddenly felt a sense of loss.

No, who slept with whom, huh? !

Xia Kean’s character card is ready, only the loli form is available, and I’ve never been satisfied with the mature woman form... I’ll post the easter egg chapter later.

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 275 Are You All My Bracelets?

2023-09-26

In Xu Shi's opinion, the question of who slept with whom is not important; whether or not both slept together might be more important.

And judging from the situation of the battle last night, he obviously had the upper hand...so his disappointment soon disappeared, and the only remaining regret was directed at Xia Wuyou.

Well, you little kitty, you got married and forgot your mother, right? Although this may not be very appropriate, this is the truth.

Even if Xia Ke'an is your biological aunt, you can't be so heartless, right? You just say you don't want me?

What is her relationship with you? Can she be compared to you and me... Oh, well, maybe she can be compared, but it's hard to say, because the blood buff comes with a bonus.

Boss Xu felt much better after thinking about it this way, so after playing the role of Xianglin Sao for a few seconds, he turned over and got out of bed, intending to call his stupid apprentice to go and inspect the recent development results of Yinsong Island together.

Then something even more outrageous happened; Pan Ling wasn't there either.

I asked the servants in the mansion, and it seems that he didn't get enough of his intimacy with his sister last night, so the two of them sneaked out to play early in the morning...

Ah, how can I stop!

Xu Shi felt like he was struck by lightning. He suddenly felt like he was abandoned by the whole world and wanted to step into the abyss of darkness.

This traitor has rebelled, huh?! He didn't even report to his master before going out to play?

And how can you abandon your master just to go out and play? Even if you say that she is your biological sister, it won't work. What is your sister's relationship with you? What is the relationship between you and your master...Oh, she is your biological sister, then it's okay.

After living for 26 years, Mr. Xu finally experienced what it felt like to be a loser. (bushi)

Fortunately, even so, he will not really become a lonely man. Even if the Second Madam and the traitor don't want me anymore, I still have the First Madam.

When he found Jiang Chengcheng, the first lady was chatting with the newly promoted third lady Xie Qingyan.

How come you two are a couple... Xu Shi was embarrassed, but he still smiled and inserted himself between the two of them, "Are you two thirsty? What would you like to drink?"

"…Who is this person? Qingyan, are all the servants here so unruly?"

Jiang Chengcheng was stunned for a moment, then turned away and asked the question slyly, even though he knew the answer.

"I don't know. He looks unfamiliar."

Xie Qingyan was also amused. He covered his face and chuckled as he echoed, "Someone, come on, get the fork out!"

Under normal circumstances, Boss Xu would be willing to play these mild jokes with them, but unfortunately he is now on the verge of turning evil.

"Are you doing this again?"

So he pinched her face in a bit of annoyance, turned it over and forced her to look at him, "Your wings are getting hard too, huh?"

"How can there be..."

Jiang Chengcheng's expression changed in an instant, and he looked at her aggrievedly, "It was you who came to me because you couldn't find anyone else, and I can't even make a joke?"

She really felt a little aggrieved. Apart from Shen Qin, who was in a special situation, Jiang Chengcheng was probably the girl who would least challenge him. She had just teased him a little bit. In fact, she had already thought about how she would get into Xu Shi's arms and act like a spoiled child...

Including last night, why do you think she didn't show up? It was because she had heard about Xia Ke'an from Xie Qingyan, so she took the initiative to create space for them. Don't be too sensible.

In the end, the bad man still has to give her a hard time, huh.

"...At least try a different tactic next time."

Xu Shi blinked, and after sorting out the causes and consequences, he felt that what he had done was inappropriate. His hands suddenly became gentle, and he held her face and gently touched her forehead.

Jiang Chengcheng would not go into a cold war with him, but that alone was not enough to satisfy her. She leaned over and asked for several kisses, and the grievance on her face completely disappeared.

The fiancée who was watching the fight on the sidelines held her forehead with her hand helplessly, and unconsciously felt a little jealous.

"Be careful of the impact in broad daylight."

She curled her lips to lighten the atmosphere, "You only remembered us after you were free... why are you here?"

"Let's get down to business."

Xu Shi said seriously, "Come with me to see the things shipped from Yinsong Island?"

"Okay."

Jiang Chengcheng nodded, took his hand and was about to go out.

"……I am coming too."

Xie Qingyan was unwilling to be left behind and hurried to catch up.

……

The supplies brought from Yinsong Island would certainly not be piled up in Xu Shi’s small courtyard. There was a special warehouse at the dock for storage.

"benefactor!"

The one in charge of guarding here is Miss Xiaomei. From a distance, you can see her waving her muscular arms and waving at everyone.

"Hello, Miss Mei."

Xu Shi greeted her politely and then walked into the warehouse.

He had planned to get these things, so he knew exactly what was here. However, the quantity seemed to be more than he expected. The ten-meter-high warehouse was filled to the brim, making it difficult to find a place to stay.

"Why did you bring so many things?"

Xia Wuyou hadn't explained it to him very clearly before, so he was a little curious and asked Jiang Chengcheng beside him.

"A little more won't go amiss."

The eldest lady smiled and said, "Also, the island's production capacity is a bit oversupplied, so after Sister Wuyou told me about it, I simply added a few more to the quantity you needed."

"Didn't you say the factory is small?"

"There aren't many people on Silver Pine Island."

Jiang Chengcheng explained, "Especially since those factories are currently mainly manufacturing components for weapons and large machinery, which are not very useful to everyone."

This is true. No matter how useful guns and cannons are, it is impossible to equip every person with ten or eight guns. Instead of letting the extra ones gather dust, it is better to transport them for emergency use.

As she spoke, she also showed Xu Shi the current situation of Yinsong Island.

At first glance, Xu Shi found that the place was completely different from before he left. The electricity system had been fully popularized, and taking advantage of this trend, the residents of the island also collectively renovated their homes. They were no longer scattered cabins, but had been replaced by more neat townhouses, with a sense of gradually moving towards industrialization.

The factory is built around the back mountain area where the signal tower was built before. As she said, it is really small in scale and can only be compared to a third-rate enterprise at most in Night Sin City.

But Yinsong Island is sparsely populated, and these alone are enough to supply the entire island's residents. With the help of Pan Cheng, those who stayed on Yinsong Island also found many new mineral veins, which solved the problem of raw materials very well.

As for some rare materials, such as liquid "rust mist" ore, it is not too difficult to get them through the island owner Pan Cheng and Miss Xiaomei's connections in the empire, which is enough to support the operation of the assembly line.

"There have also been improvements to the network system. I asked Adjutant Yu to take a boat with us and return to Night Sin City along our previous route. This is a good opportunity to repair and maintain the temporary base station that we placed at sea."

Jiang Chengcheng continued, "The signal is now very stable, including the radiation to the main city. You should be able to feel it?"

Xu Shi nodded slightly. She had told him about this before, and their communication equipment was indeed more stable as she said.

No wonder there was only one ship of her own in the port this time, the others were all improved silver pine ships - there were only two ships in total and one had to be returned, so she certainly wouldn't dispatch another one out of thin air just for this reason.

"I thought you must also lay signal towers in the main city, or even the entire Hualan Empire, so I made preparations in advance."

The eldest lady's tone was warm and gentle, "As for the specific popularization... I think it's not the right time yet. What do you think?"

"Madam, you are thoughtful."

Xu Shi smiled and sighed, pretending to recite a line, but he was actually very pleased in his heart.

I can only say that she is very considerate, right? I haven't deliberately discussed or explained many things to her, but she always agrees with my own ideas tacitly.

It seems that Xia Wuyou is not the only good wife who can help him. If she really wants to learn more from her, Xia Xiaomao still needs to learn more.

Sometimes I even felt like I was being cared for by my elders - it was not that great, the supplies that were delivered were not just "some" but almost doubled.

Are two boats enough? Thank you, Chengcheng, Chengcheng is so nice.

This feeling was further heightened when he saw the newly produced weapons - after opening the boxes, he found that the quality was in no way inferior to those produced locally in Night Sin City, and there were even some minor improvements, such as "Tele-Shock" and "Fire Snake". It was no exaggeration to say that they were a new generation of products.

But what's interesting is that the products promised to Cheng Gujian before have not been improved at all, and there is even a hint of cutting corners... Obviously, Jiang Chengcheng and Xu Shi are in sync on this point. Knowing that he will use this good brother as a target, he has simply put some eye drops on him from now on...

"That's not very authentic."
