He plays a domineering CEO in a short drama, starting by educating his employees about the law.

Without a doubt, Erhu is the best helper he can mobilize.

Shen Qingxi stretched.

"It's getting late, time to go home!"

Oh, by the way, Lao Pang, I'm going to Ankang County tomorrow to take Su Qing home!

You handle tomorrow's work!

Pang Cheng nodded.

Great, the boss is going out to play again.

Now he's left to suffer like an animal.

Indeed, the lives of cattle and horses are truly not to be taken lightly.

Pang Cheng asked, "Boss, is there anything else?"

Shen Qingxi said, "There really is something, Lao Pang. Do you think I should hold a 24th birthday banquet?"

Pang Cheng's eyes widened immediately: "Huh? A birthday banquet?"

Pang Cheng was speechless.

Young Master, do you want to hear what you're saying?

At twenty-four, you're already throwing a birthday banquet.

Is this correct?

But soon, Pang Cheng suddenly realized something.

"Well, young master, if you want to gather these people together and have them meet, then..."

Actually, it doesn't need to be so complicated; you can just invite them directly.

One dinner party will suffice!

"Isn't this birthday banquet a bit too..."

Shen Qingxi shook his head: "It's a different story with Old Pang. He can accept gifts at his birthday banquet!"

Pang Cheng was speechless for a moment.

What he said makes a lot of sense.

It's flawless.

It's so flawless, I can't find a single fault with it.

That's true, you can receive gifts at a birthday banquet.

But something just feels off.

Pang Cheng shook his head: "Forget it, young master, it's your decision. If you want to do it, then do it!"

Shen Qingxi smiled and said, "Then it's up to you. Remember to send the invitations to everyone!"

Don't forget anyone.

Pang Cheng said, "Yes, young master, I understand!"

I will arrange it as soon as possible.

Shen Qingxi's lips curled into a smile.

To be honest, he somehow gives off a crooked-mouthed dragon king vibe.

After get off work, Shen Qingxi drove away alone in his Rolls-Royce.

In fact, the news he learned today was quite shocking to him.

It wasn't as nonchalant as his expression suggested.

Anyone who knew these things would probably not be indifferent.

Even if Shen Qingxi is incredibly oblivious, it's the same.

What Shen Qingxi truly cared about were his few enemies.

These are all clearly the protagonist's surnames.

That's outrageous.

Although, Shen is also the protagonist's surname.

However, this protagonist doesn't have any cheat codes.

The other main characters, those who are capable of being main characters.

Shen Qingxi didn't believe they would be like him.

It has nothing!

However, looking at it now, I'm not without my advantages.

My biggest advantage is...

They have powerful backing!

This can be seen from the big actions they took after being attacked.

He has an exceptionally strong backing.

However, the protagonist's world is irrational.

After all, the male lead in a short drama—those who know, know.

Therefore, Shen Qingxi still felt a strong sense of crisis.

So why did Shen Qingxi still choose to get involved?

Very simple.

Because Shen Qingxi knew one thing clearly.

In fact, there are many things that he cannot choose.

That's clearly the situation now!

There are too many things that are not up to you.

Rather, it's about what you must do.

There are countless examples of situations pushing people forward.

Although, Pang Cheng said so.

Shen Qingxi could refuse; he could choose not to participate.

But is it really that simple?

How many people took action for Shen Qingxi this time?

Shen Qingxi has already reviewed the information.

If Shen Qingxi doesn't get involved.

What will happen to these people afterward?

Should they switch to someone else?

So, can they be truly accepted?

Putting aside other things, let's just talk about the four great families of Kyoto.

Given their size, if they were to switch to an outsider, let alone whether they themselves would be willing, would anyone really dare to hire them?

Therefore, Pang Cheng's statement that Shen Qingxi could withdraw is correct.

In Shen Qingxi's opinion, it was just a pointless statement.

In some situations, the moment you're listed as a participant...

Whether you choose to join the game or not is no longer up to you.

Things will push you forward, and people will push you forward.

Even if you don't want to leave, you can't.

Therefore, Shen Qingxi had no choice but to join the game.

Since we can't change it, let's get involved and see what's going on.

Putting everything else aside, he is a time traveler, an existence that stands in a high dimension looking down on creatures in a low dimension.

Is he possibly afraid?

That is definitely impossible.

Time travelers have their own pride!

However, he was still a little panicked.

At the entrance of the villa.

Shen Qingxi stopped the car.

I lit a cigarette, something I rarely do.

The spicy aroma filled my lungs.

It reminded Shen Qingxi of this taste that he had long forgotten.

Shen Qingxi took out his phone.

Find that familiar phone number.

Then, I made the call.

The next moment, something to Shen Qingxi's delight happened.

The call actually went through.

Shen's mother's voice came through.

"Eldest son, what made you think of calling me!"

Hearing his own mother's voice.

Shen Qingxi's eyes were a little red.

"Please, Mom, it's not that I suddenly remembered to call you."

"It's your phone! I finally got through!"

Shen's mother said, "Oh, you know how it is abroad, domestic mobile phone numbers are not very reliable."

And the phone bills are quite expensive.

"I've been using a foreign SIM card all along, and I just switched back today."

Shen Qingxi's lips twitched slightly.

Without a doubt, the reason the card was returned was definitely not because of my own fault.

What? You're asking why we don't just use a chat app to contact each other!

Then you'll have to ask Shen's mother.

Last time, Shen Qingxi was blocked by his mother and hasn't been able to get back on his end.

As for the reason...

Shen's mother posted a message on her WeChat Moments.

She showed off her newly done hair.

Shen Qingxi is so despicable.

The first two words that come to mind are: looks old!

And then, ever since.

Shen Qingxi never had the chance to see her mother's WeChat Moments again.

Of course, there was no chance to chat either.

Shen's mother said, "Eldest son, tell me what's wrong?"

Shen Qingxi took a deep drag on his cigarette.

"It's nothing, Mom, I just...missed you!"

There was a moment of silence on Shen's mother's end.

"You knew everything, didn't you?"

Shen Qingxi hummed in agreement.

Shen's mother sighed, "Son, are you sure the path you've chosen is the one you want to take?"

Shen Qingxi said, "I don't know. All I know is that this is the path I must take!"

Shen's mother said, "Stop talking nonsense, son. No one is obligated to take a certain path."

Your path is yours to decide.

If you don't want to leave, then leave Daxia and come find me. With me here, nothing will happen to you.

We can ignore what's happening in China!

No one can force you to do something you can't do.

Don't worry about what others do.

You are Shen Qingxi, my son.

If all else fails, have your dad step in!

"Don't worry about the rest."

Beside Shen's mother.

Shen Feng's eyes widened.

No, how did he end up taking the place?

This isn't right. Why is my wife suddenly acting like a different person?
