Thinking of this, I suddenly remembered something and looked at her: “Xiao Xiao, I’m going out of the fortress in a few days. Want to come with me?”
“Out of the fortress?” She parted her lips, unable to hide her surprise.
I nodded affirmatively and said seriously, “Yes, didn’t you say several shops have been having issues recently? I want to investigate and also take a trip out. We’ve been in the fortress for ten years now, it’s time to go out and take a look! And visit Uncle Qin in the countryside!”
Ten years have passed, and Heaven has still not brought that person before me. It seems I’ll have to find them myself!
“But… will the young master agree?” Ying Xiao was somewhat worried.
“Do you think I care about the opinion of a fire-breathing dragon?” I laughed lightly. I’ve never been easily swayed by others, not even by him as the master.
“Don’t worry, I’m not interested in your affairs!” That guy suddenly appeared from the side, speaking coolly.
“That’s best!” I couldn’t help but retort.
“However, I’m coming too!” He announced confidently.
“Why are you coming?” I couldn’t help but frown.
“These are my West Lin family’s businesses.”
As the main owner, isn’t it natural for me to personally inspect the operations?” He looked at me, half proud and half provocative.
Inspect operations? I saw right through him – he clearly just wanted to antagonize me and cause trouble.
I gritted my teeth: “If you’re going, I’m not going!”
He shrugged, mimicking my previous attitude: “Suit yourself. If you’re not going, just stay in the fortress and watch the house!” Then he turned to Ying Xiao: “Xiao’er, since she’s not going, I’ll take you!”
Looking at his unbridled, carefree, and exceptionally cheerful face, I really wanted to punch him!
Currently, the Xi Lin family has many branches, but the only one truly controlling the economic lifeline is the person beside me…
I have long been accustomed to indifference.
