Original Translations: Crafted with Care, No Unauthorized Reposting Allowed.

Izon didn't see anything wrong with that.

In his opinion, they are just talking about the family, and Mr. Shen is very "understanding", the words of Mr. Zhou to defend, no matter sincere or false, at least the surface to do properly.

At the other end of the phone, Sam was silent for a moment, as if he understood something, and as if he didn't understand anything, because when he spoke again, his tone was uncharacteristic: "Mr. Shen has a heart."

Xiaochi Chi replied, "I should."

After a few words, Xiaochi Chi hung up the phone and turned the channel to watch the entertainment news for a while, and got something unexpected.

He saw on the news that Kai Zhou was keeping that mouth on the outside.

She attended a charity event last night and her interview with reporters was being broadcast on TV.

She is also of Asian descent, in her early 25s, and has had few scandals since her debut. She has been semi-retired from the modeling world, but is an active star in the charity world, especially in the rescue of children of color, for which she has a good reputation.

Good word of mouth means she can't afford to lose.

This woman has been known for her hard work since she joined the industry, with few negative - side news, Kai Zhou also saw this in her and chose her to be the pushing hand behind the scenes, pushing her higher and higher, erected on high, so that flowers and applause will surround her.

Over time, the halo on her head can not be removed, can not go away.

Because she neither dares to remove it, nor does she want to remove it.

As a result, she acted more aggressively than Kai Zhou in concealing the unpleasant affair.

I have to say, Kai Zhou knows how to play with people, but the good thing is that Kai Zhou is good at controlling others, but not good at controlling himself.

This is Xiaochi Chi's chance.

The TV time was over and Izon turned it off right on time, pushed Xiaochi Chi back into the bedroom and carried him to bed.

...... After yesterday's battle, this time he always knew to lighten up a bit.

Xiaochi Chi lay down on the bed and said to Izon, "I want some pudding."

Izon replied, "Mr. Shen, this is not dessert time."

Xiaochi Chi said, "I want it now."

Izon is not condescending: "Then I will connect you to Mr. Zhou and ask if I should give it to you."

Xiaochi Chi seemed hesitant: "...... That's not necessary."

Yesterday beat up Isong, it was Xiaochi Chi who wanted to show him what he was made of.

Today, obedient to Isong, is to show the enemy to be weak, so that Isong think that he is still the weak Mr. Shen, and does not intend to break the pot, a crazy to the end.

So far, the only asset Xiaochi Chi has in his hand is the "trust" Changqing Shen has built up with Kai Zhou over the past three years.

And it's not time to cash in.

After Izon left, Xiaochi Chi said, "It's not even a pudding, it's not a thing."

061 reassured him, "Don't be like him. He's just a servant, at Kai Zhou's beck and call."

Xiaochi Chi said, "It's all shit, so let's not differentiate between small and large."

061 thought, Xiaochi Chi, this mouth ah.

Xiaochi Chi lies on his bed, still not wanting to give up his dessert: "I remember there is a food category in the warehouse. I want to cash in a cone."

061: "With what? ...... Kai Zhou's goodwill value?"

Xiaochi Chi rhetorically asked, "Or can we use another exchange?"

"But there are only 45 points left ......"

"His goodwill is a pile of waste, it doesn't matter if he has it or not. Xiaochi Chi said, "Kai Zhou such a psychopath, the goodwill value of Changqing Shen may be linked to adrenaline, the more beaten the more I love him, see him more miserable the more I love him. At this stage I just need his trust in Changqing Shen, this disgusting goodwill is not as good as a cone."

061 helplessly smiled: "...... What flavor do you want?"

The camera in the bedroom does not need much consideration, although it is always on, but 061 has used a video of Changqing Shen sleeping to completely cover all the content that should not appear.

Even if Kai Zhou is now on the remote, real-time spying on Changqing Shen's every move, there is nothing unusual to find.

A few minutes later, Xiaochi Chi pinches a chocolate-flavored cone, licking and biting it.

Xiaochi Chi hums, "No food, no clothes, the enemy will send them forward."

061: "......"

He continued to sing, "No guns, no artillery, the enemy built it for us."

Probably because the last world had Yuan Cheng's ability as a cover, it is only now that 061 has finally discovered Xiaochi Chi's ability blind spot.

...... He sang 26 words, only two of which were in tune.

To avoid Xiaochi Chi from singing any further, 061 coughed, "What are your thoughts on the current situation?"

Xiaochi Chi bit into her ice cream and said, "Don't think about it yet, there's already business to be done."

At the behest of Xiaochi Chi, 061 registered a new email address and got Sam's email address without much effort.

He sent an email, "I can give you what you want, what can you give me."

About ten minutes passed and Sam replied, "You are?"

Within those ten minutes, he should have checked the IP address of the sender, but was destined to find nothing.

Xiaochi Chi said, "His health is of great concern to you, and it is of equal concern to me."

It's kind of a statement of identity.

And Sam quickly understood, but did not dare to take a position easily: "Yes, of course I care."

Xiaochi Chi said, "Since you care so much, I will give you a chance. I hope you take advantage of it."

Sam said back, "You gave me what I wanted, and what do you want?"

Xiaochi Chi ignored Sam's reply and got offline after posting, concentrating on his cone of egg rolls.

061 asked, "You're teaming up with Sam?"

"Sort of." Xiaochi Chi says, "After all, he needs something that only I can give."

061 asked, "How can you be sure you're not working with a tiger?"

Xiaochi Chi said, "Then we have to get the muzzle and cage ready first."

Since Xiaochi Chi had a number in mind, 061 didn't ask any more questions.

From the state of calculating people's eyes, Xiaochi Chi has become a childish child again.

Seeing Xiaochi Chi bite into the egg roll with great interest and concentration, 061 lost his smile: "Is it that good?"

"No, just a sudden desire to eat." Xiaochi Chi licked his lips, "...... I grew up with a favorite cone of egg rolls."

As Xiaochi Chi said, there are always things that people like and care about in life.

Although Kai Zhou doesn't live much like a person, he does have some hobbies. There are abnormal ones, such as perversion; there are also normal ones, such as stamp collecting.

Two days before Kai Zhou's return, Xiaochi Chi had been monitoring Kai Zhou's, Kai Zhou's little lover's, and Sam's every move, and in his spare time, he had 061 bring Kai Zhou's stamp album that he had hidden in his safe to admire.

He asked 061, "Are these true?"

061 said, "The real thing."

"Is it expensive?"

"Out of print."

Xiaochi Chi pointed to one of them, "This one looks a bit old, how much do you think it's worth?"

061 said a number.

Xiaochi Chi : "...... what? How much?"

061 was repeated.

Xiaochi Chi pointed to the one below it again, "What about this one?"

After the 061 quote, Xiaochi Chi was quite skeptical: "Six teachers, you don't ass me."

061 said, "I'm talking about the price when they sold at auction. The appreciation part I didn't take into account."

Xiaochi Chi : "......"

No wonder Kai Zhou treasures this stamp collection so much.

From the beginning to the end, Xiaochi Chi's only feeling was that he was holding about 20 villa deeds.

But the sentimental value of the worn album itself is perhaps greater for Kai Zhou than the value of the stamps.

When he was in a good mood, Kai Zhou also showed this album to Changqing Shen, saying that it was left to him by his father and that the stamps on the first few pages were his father's collection, which were not valuable, but he kept them along with the other valuable stamps.

In this regard, 061's feeling is that people are really complex creatures.

And Xiaochi Chi's feeling is, "Oh, you know you have a father, how would your father feel if he saw you beating Changqing Shen like a sandbag?

Xiaochi Chi is lying in bed, but she knows everything about the world without leaving home, and diligently follows the development of each party.

It was only when Kai Zhou pushed open Changqing Shen's door that he turned off the monitor given to him by 061, put down the book he was holding as a decoration, and looked up at him.

Kai Zhou sat down on the edge of the bed: "Are you better?"

After beating Changqing Shen for a few days, he was always extra gentle, as if he was not the one who went crazy.

Moreover, because he enjoys absolute control over Changqing Shen, he can easily skip even the usual domestic violence scene where the husband gets down on his knees and begs his wife for forgiveness.

Changqing Shen on the bed, his palms pressed against the book, his expression calm, but his fingertips shaking imperceptibly: "Much better."

Kai Zhou noticed his subtle body movements and smiled.

Then Xiaochi Chi watched as the 40 points of goodwill on the panel went up by 7 points.

Xiaochi Chi : "......"

061: "......"

061 thought, "This is really a pervert.

Xiaochi Chi reacted and said gleefully, "Holy shit, we can cash in our cards from Kai Zhou."

061 also do not know what to say, only out of a sense of social responsibility of the system to correct Xiaochi Chi : "...... do not swear."

Xiaochi Chi thought about it, "Holy shit, we have a card to redeem."

061: "......" This class of students is one of the skinniest he has ever led.

Kai Zhou took his hand to ruffle Xiaochi Chi's hair, and Xiaochi Chi obediently accepted it, but his lips were bitten to the bone.

Kai Zhou said pleasantly, "...... you afraid of me?"

Xiaochi Chi shook his head and buried it very low.

He looked around and noticed that the clock was missing from the bedside table and casually asked, "Where's the watch?"

Xiaochi Chi said softly, "I fell to the ground in the middle of the night and broke it when I turned over."

Xiaochi Chi knew that Izon wouldn't dare to tell anyone about the beating, and Kai Zhou thought that the "Changqing Shen" in front of him was still the same Changqing Shen who never dared to cheat on himself, and gave a casual hint, not caring much about this insignificant loss.

He raised his hand to touch Xiaochi Chi's thickly strapped forehead: "Don't be afraid. I'm not going to hit you now."

Xiaochi Chi: "Thank you." Thank you eight generations of ancestors.

Kai Zhou said, "It's pretty boring to stay home alone and recover from your injury, isn't it?"

Xiaochi Chi frowned slightly for a long time before replying, "It's okay."

Kai Zhou was greatly pleased by the small way the man in front of him tried to deliberate his words, fearing to anger himself.

Accordingly, his favorable opinion of Changqing Shen is rising.

Kai Zhou said, "Take care of your injury. There's a mid-year party in 20 days, and I want you to be there." It was the perfect opportunity to show how much the chairman and his partner love each other, and Kai Zhou didn't miss it.

Changqing Shen was clearly stunned, touched the chest injury, seems to want to argue something, but finally gave up.

"...... is good."

The former Changqing Shen also experienced such a choice, and eventually he compromised.

Twenty days later, he endured the pain of his still-painful wound and went to play Kai Zhou's best mate.

And Xiaochi Chi also compromised with the aim of getting something going after 20 days.

As soon as Kai Zhou left the room, his favorability rating, which had risen to the dreaded "80", began to fall.

Xiaochi Chi didn't hesitate at all and quickly reported the name of the card he wanted to redeem, and 061 didn't dare to be slow and immediately put the card into effect.

In the end, he redeemed five cards.

Two amnesia cards that function to erase specific memories, but can only erase memory fragments of up to ten minutes.

An item displacement card, the function of which is to move the item to a specific location, with the condition that the item to be moved cannot weigh more than 10 kg and the range of movement cannot exceed 500 meters.

A hypnosis card, which is new in the warehouse mall not long ago, super short-acting and lasts for half an hour.

There is also a strength strengthening card, the duration of one minute, within a minute of using the card, the human body strength will rapidly soar, but accompanied by serious side effects, after a minute, the user will be exhausted, limb weakness.

The simple explanation is that "one minute of virility, two hours of paralysis".

After some redemption, there were 39 good feeling points left at the end.

Xiaochi Chi inventoried the warehouse and expressed his satisfaction: "Very good. Take from the people and use it for the people."

With Sam, Kai Zhou is not very busy, leaving all the little things to Sam and only making decisions on major company matters.

And for that party, plus Changqing Shen is injured, he can't do anything to Changqing Shen in these 20 days.

Bored, he remembered he had a comfort zone.

It must be said that he still has feelings for women, and although he cannot produce a physical reaction, it is at least much more pleasurable mentally than facing a man.

He has never been violent to his beautiful young second wife, one is afraid of leaving scars on her body, and the other is really like her a little.

It's just that like is like, he can never marry a woman home.

And that little lover was quite cooperative and "content".

Take his money, do charity, live in a villa, except in the payment of public food to be solved by props, all other things are good.

She is naturally content.

So the two hit it off and were quite in tune with each other in bed and in conversation.

Xiaochi Chi sighed as he listened to 061's voice from there in real time: "He's old and strong."

061: "...... Aren't we a little perverted that way."

Xiaochi Chi said, "Don't put a face to ourselves. It's pretty sick."

061: "...... Then you still listen."

Xiaochi Chi : "I'm gathering information."

If it was anyone else, while eavesdropping on other people's private rooms while saying this, 061 would definitely think that this person is a hypocrite who is moralistic to the extreme.

But there is an inexplicable sense of credibility when Xiaochi Chi says this.

Because Xiaochi Chi has never had anything to do with being a gentleman from the very beginning.

After eavesdropping for two nights and recording so many AVIs, 061 felt that his ears and mind had been seriously tainted.

061 spit bitterness: "...... I'm going to grow a needle's eye."

Xiaochi Chi, who has seen the world, said, "Young people, they just can't handle it."

061: "......"

The young teacher 061 did not say anything else, networked down a "Heart Sutra" and played it on a loop to give his mind a break.

After a nice double day at her lover's, Kai Zhou went back to work refreshed.

Monday morning was a regular meeting, and after it was over, he went back to his office to deal with the paperwork.

Not much to do today, Kai Zhou is planning to go golfing this afternoon after a brief treatment.

He himself called the golf course he frequented to make a reservation and informed his secretary about it.

But at about 10 o'clock, a male assistant from a subordinate department called Kai Zhou's secretary to inform him of a temporary change to the fall presentation scheduled for the following Tuesday.

The secretary passed the matter on to Kai Zhou.

This was not a small matter and needed to be discussed at a meeting. Kai Zhou quickly made a decision to cancel the golf program and hold an emergency impromptu meeting at 3 pm in the central conference room on the 15th floor, where the company's mid-level leaders and above must attend.

Because of the number of departments involved in the event, Kai Zhou specifically requested that department heads who could not attend be involved in the meeting in real time, either by phone or video.

This kind of change is also common, the secretary received the notice and proceeded to inform down one by one.

Xiaochi Chi, who was constantly monitoring Kai Zhou's every move, took it all in and said, "Teacher Six, do it."

After a few days, there was finally something serious to do, and 061 did what Xiaochi Chi asked.

At three o'clock that afternoon, the company's middle-level leaders and above, including Sam, and a group of people waiting for the meeting with the video on, looked at the empty chairman's seat and stared wide-eyed.

The secretary was frantic and called Kai Zhou, but no one answered.

He contacted Changqing Shen , but Mr. Shen said that Mr. Zhou was not in the company?

The secretary wanted to contact the secret lover, but he had only heard of her name, but never seen her, so he didn't know where to start.

By 3:30, seeing that the crowd was clearly anxious, Sam stood up and said soothingly, "Don't be anxious, everyone. Frank and I will stay behind to contact Mr. Zhou, while the others will go back to their departments. I'll contact everyone if there's another situation."

Sam stayed behind and the crowd dispersed.

The secretary was so anxious that he almost called the police. He suspected that Kai Zhou had been kidnapped, otherwise how could he not come to the meeting.

Sam asked, "Will Mr. Chow forget?"

The secretary spoke without thinking, "Mr. Zhou has always been rigorous in his work ......"

As soon as the words were out of her mouth, the secretary thought of the oversleeping incident not long ago, her heart thumped, and immediately dismissed the idea.

It wasn't until exactly 4:30 that Kai Zhou answered the secretary's call.

The secretary broke out in a fine sweat: "Mr. Zhou, where did you go?"

Kai Zhou frowned, "I was at the golf course. Didn't I tell you about this in the morning?"

The secretary's jaw dropped, "You ...... you forgot you had a meeting this afternoon?"

Kai Zhou opened his mouth and asked in return, "What will?"
