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

However, this doesn't seem like a bad thing.

After all, honest people are easily taken advantage of!

Of course, Shen Qingxi is absolutely not the type of person who is honest!

After Pang Cheng and Er Hu left.

Shen Qingxi went upstairs.

Although he was already light enough.

But it still woke Qu Rou up.

Qu Rou opened her eyes groggily.

"You're back. Did you reach an agreement with Pang Cheng and the others?"

Shen Qingxi came to the bedside and kissed Qu Rou on the forehead.

"Ugh, did I wake you up?"

Qu Rou shook her head and hugged Shen Qingxi's waist: "It's okay, I went to bed early last night and I've had enough sleep! You should go wash up and go to bed!"

Shen Qingxi nodded, then went to the bathroom to wash up.

A dozen minutes later, Shen Qingxi walked out of the bathroom wrapped in a bath towel.

Qu Rou was leaning against the bed, flipping through the magazine in her hand.

Shen Qingxi lay down next to Qu Rou and hugged her.

"What are you looking at?"

Qu Rou said, "Fashion magazines, let me pick out a few outfits for you!"

Shen Qingxi asked in confusion, "Clothes?"

Qu Rou said, "I'm your personal assistant, haven't you forgotten!"

Shen Qingxi said, "If you hadn't mentioned it, I would have really forgotten."

Qu Rou rolled her eyes: "I can't be bothered with you. You should go to sleep. I need to pick out clothes for you, and other accessories!"

Shen Qingxi asked, "The ones at home are unusable?"

Qu Rou said, "It's different. Aren't you going to have a birthday banquet? Pang Cheng told me that many important people will be coming, so naturally you can't wear old clothes. Your accessories and such also need to be carefully chosen!"

Shen Qingxi yawned: "This is so troublesome!"

I've always thought these things are utter nonsense! A waste of money and time.

Qu Rou said, "There's nothing we can do about it; that's the rule of high society."

Clothes, accessories, even a simple tie, watch, or belt all contribute to your image!

As the saying goes, the poor play with cars, the rich play with watches, and the proletariat play with computers!

Brooches and leather belts are representative of this style.

That's exactly what I mean!

These things are symbols of the wealthy.

The more inconspicuous something is, the more symbolic it becomes.

It seems that only those seemingly insignificant but actually exorbitantly expensive items can represent their status!

Qu Rou's tone also carried an inexplicable mockery.

Shen Qingxi said disdainfully, "Identity? That's given by others. The only thing I can give myself is an ID card!"

What others recognize is true identity; everything else is merely external.

Qu Rou said, "But not everyone thinks like you!"

Therefore, I have to make sure you get all the face you need!

Shen Qingxi said, "Fine, fine, you do whatever you want, I don't care anymore!"

However, let's not waste too much money. I'm planning to buy a small island after I retire, and we'll spend our old age there together, so we need to save money!

After Shen Qingxi finished speaking, he fell asleep immediately.

I must say, she falls asleep incredibly fast.

Qu Rou glanced at Shen Qingxi beside her.

Her eyes curved into crescent moons.

She murmured, "An island? It seems really nice."

Qu Rou shook her head, trying to shake off the fantasy of island life from her mind.

She continued reading the magazine in her hand, choosing clothes for Shen Qingxi.

If it looks decent, just fold a corner over it.

Magazines like the one from Shen Qingxi's shop are actually different from those you buy elsewhere.

This kind of magazine is exclusively for the wealthy.

Inside are all kinds of clothes and accessories.

The contact information for the designer or other purchasing channels is also provided above!

Qu Rou noted down a few contact methods, planning to ask them tomorrow.

After finishing my work, I checked the time and it was already seven o'clock.

Qu Rou yawned, tossed the magazine aside, and then lay down on Shen Qingxi's arm. Soon after, even breathing could be heard.

.....

Shen Qingxi slept soundly.

If Qu Rou hadn't called him to dinner, Shen Qingxi felt he could have slept until the afternoon.

After washing up, I went downstairs.

Everyone in the villa today is there.

Pang Cheng, Er Hu, and Qu Rou are the three people Shen Qingxi is closest to.

Zi Yuan and Qing He, the two bodyguards, were also there.

Shen Qingxi glanced around: "Hey, Fu Ningning, why are you home? You've skipped work again, I'll dock your pay!"

Fu Ningning immediately became anxious: "Boss, have some decency! I haven't had a break in ages, and today is my normal day off!"

Why are you always thinking of deducting my salary?!

Shen Qingxi looked at Pang Cheng.

Pang Cheng suppressed a laugh: "Indeed, Miss Fu is taking a normal day off today!"

Shen Qingxi said, "What a pity, even oxen and horses have holidays!"

Upon hearing this, Fu Ningning's eyes widened.

Pang Cheng's eyes widened, and everyone in the villa looked at Shen Qingxi with astonishment.

Listen to this, is it human speech?

The mindset of these cold-blooded capitalists is truly different from that of normal people.

Pang Cheng said, "Young Master, if you don't get a break, 007 can sue you according to the latest labor law."

Shen Qingxi said, "I was just joking. I'm not that heartless."

The villa fell silent.

No one speaks.

Anyway, it was pretty awkward.

But who is Shen Qingxi?

How could he be embarrassed so easily?

"Alright, let's eat!"

Shen Qingxi's main strategy is to avoid embarrassment himself; it's others who will feel awkward.

It was just a minor awkward silence; he had it all figured out.

At the dining table, the food was, of course, prepared by Fu Ningning.

Zi Yuan ate with great relish; it was clear she really enjoyed Fu Ningning's cooking.

Even the picky Shen Qingxi felt that Fu Ningning's cooking skills were getting better and better.

"Nanny, your cooking skills are really good now!"

Fu Ningning said with some pride, "That's right, Sister Rou, Qinghe, and Ziyuan all really appreciate my skills."

Shen Qingxi said, "Then you've made a profit, haven't you?"

Fu Ningning was stunned: "What do you mean?"

Shen Qingxi said, "Without the Shen Family Culinary School, could you have honed this skill?"

"Shen Family Culinary School?"

Shen Qingxi nodded and pointed to the kitchen.

Fu Ningning's lips twitched slightly.

"Should I pay some tuition fees then?"

Shen Qingxi said, "Old Pang, give her a receipt later!"

Fu Ningning exclaimed that it was absolutely amazing.

She was truly convinced.

Qu Rou couldn't help but chuckle: "Alright, stop fooling around, let's eat. Don't you have things to do after we finish eating?"

Shen Qingxi didn't continue teasing Fu Ningning.

I'm tired of this.

Shen Qingxi looked at Pang Cheng.

"Old Pang, what's the situation with the Chen family?"

Pang Cheng said, "Last night, that old man from the Chen family was discharged from the hospital and immediately began preparing for Chen Yang's funeral."

The funeral hall and other preparations are complete. The body will be kept for three days before cremation!

Shen Qingxi nodded: "That's pretty fast."

Pang Cheng said, "It was indeed quite fast, but somewhat unexpectedly, there are still some suspicious points surrounding Chen Yang's death."

"Uncle Hat actually agreed to bring the body back so quickly."
