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

That's true. Who knew He Yuxia would do such a big job? If nothing went wrong, then everything would be fine. Otherwise, it would be a big trouble indeed.

In this case, he naturally couldn't stop her. He Yuxia was not under house arrest anyway. In his opinion, it was a good thing - he didn't expect the He family to change their minds and let her do anything, but at least they valued her and treated her better, which was not a bad thing.

"To be honest, whether it's Yuxia or little Gu Yi, they are both good kids in my eyes."

Speaking of this, Mr. Wen was also very emotional, "The main thing is, kid, you know what? They actually look a bit like your mother."

"is it?"

Xu Shi raised his eyebrows. He was really not sure about this.

But it's also strange to think about it. These two people have completely different personality templates, right? Old man, how can you make my mother look like a schizophrenic?

"Do you want to hear it? I want to hear it and I'll tell you about it."

Talking about this, Wen Shengkui suddenly started talking, and with a gentle expression he told them about Xu Shi's mother Wen Rujin.

Xu Shi also had a detailed understanding of his mother for the first time. How should I put it? Listening to the old man's description, he also found that his mother was a very interesting person.

As the eldest daughter of "Feather Pen", Wen Rujin naturally received the education of a scholarly family since childhood. In the past, the old man also trained her as the future successor of "Feather Pen".

Wen Ruijin did not disappoint her family's expectations. She was proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting at a young age, and was also quite skilled in external social interactions. Her positioning might be quite similar to that of Xia Ke'an in the past. The fact is that the two were indeed mentioned on the same level back then, and in the eyes of outsiders, they were considered a pair of dazzling beauties.

However, compared with the white-haired loli, Wen Rujin may be even more lively, and has a bit more quirky character in the way she behaves and deals with things. She has many experiences in the past where she has fooled her opponents around, and it still makes people laugh when they talk about it now.

Xu Shi understood after hearing what he said. No wonder old lady Xia Ke'an always mentioned her mother. Perhaps it was caused by her competitive mentality in her early years?

As for the fact that "He Yuxia and Gu Yi are both very similar to Wen Rujin", it is easy to explain. They each have half of my mother's personality? One is as quiet as a virgin, and the other is as agile as a rabbit.

"Even you are actually very similar to Jin, but you are more observant of others?"

Wen Shengkui added, "Ah Jin was also an S-level "Upgrader" back then, and could read other people's inner thoughts on a large scale... You follow her in this regard."

"It's a good thing to be able to resemble your mother."

Xu Shi smiled when he heard this. No wonder he always felt like a fish in water in this area. Should he say it was genetic?

But the ability of the "Upgraded" should not be inherited, right? Of course, this does not seem to be a supernatural power. He is very clear that the fact that he can accurately understand the other party's psychological activities is not entirely due to the "increase of evil thoughts entropy".

But then again, my mom sounds like she has a pretty rich personality, so how did she end up with my dad?

When Xu Shi thought of his father Xu Cheng's typical taciturn father character, he inexplicably felt like laughing.

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 155 So you even have a child, right? !

After leaving "Quillen" and on the way home, Xu Shi was in a very good mood.

"I've never seen you so happy."

Gu Yi, who was sitting next to him, joked, "It feels like you, Xu the bastard, are about to jump up."

"Is there? Maybe."

Xu Shi did not deny it. "But I was able to hear some things about my mother, and I also learned that she is a very powerful person. This is indeed worth being happy about, isn't it?"

Anyway, he knew nothing about this before...mainly because he had no way to understand it. He might only have some vague memories from his infancy. After his mother passed away, his father never talked about her. The strange rift between father and son might have been due to this factor.

As for Su Lin? If you ask her, she will definitely tell you everything she knows, but unfortunately, she knows very little about it. There is nothing we can do about it. It is always difficult to make up a story about such things...

That's why Xu Shi was so excited when he heard his grandfather talk about these things. He even had a feeling that a certain void in his heart was only now gradually filled.

In fact, he was still not satisfied. If he hadn't had some other things to arrange, he might have stayed in the "Quillen Pen" and had a long chat with the old man for the whole day.

"That's right."

Miss Black Rabbit nodded. "Hearing what the old man said, Auntie is indeed a very interesting and perfect person."

"At least I have something to think about in the future, right?"

Xu Shi lay back and said, "I could only see her picture before, but I couldn't imagine what she looked like. How can I imagine something I don't know, right?"

"And my dad...I miss him a little bit."

As he spoke, he felt a little melancholy.

Although there was estrangement, it was also true that they met three times and quarreled twice when his father was alive, but it was undeniable that Xu Cheng was not bad to him, and he did not have any strange complex of blaming his child for the loss of his wife. At least what they lacked was only spiritual communication, and materially speaking, he would respond to his requests.

Su Lin in the front row also felt inexplicably emotional when she heard this.

The fact is that the master treats her almost the same as he treats the young master. He never beats or scolds her. In fact, because of the strained relationship between him and the young master, he has more time to confide in her, so she understands this very well.

In a sense, the master is really a good man, but he is just... not good at expressing himself to the young master?

Thinking of the way the master sighed when he mentioned Xu Shishi, and the instructions he gave her in the last few years, she smiled helplessly.

"You know what? Some people describe parents as those magical wish-granting machines."

Xu Shi closed his eyes and whispered, "But they are very stupid wish-granting machines. They may not be very capable, and they are not omnipotent at all. But they will still try their best to find loopholes, just to realize your wishes perfectly."

Parents from the previous life, and those in this life... it's a pity that we can't see them anymore. Some things you only know how to cherish after you lose them.

"Oh."

Gu Yi agreed deeply, and her feelings might be even deeper.

After all, Xu Shi's parents are big shots after all, but her mother is not. She is just an ordinary person in Sin City, but she raised her up by herself... In fact, she and Xu Shi are just the opposite. She never knew who her father was, and when she asked her mother, her mother said he was a conscienceless bastard.

Thinking about it now, Miss Black Rabbit just feels that her mother is a superhero.

"Okay, okay, how come listening to a story makes you no longer like yourself?"

But she just commemorated it a little in her heart. Xu the bastard needed comfort more, so she thought about it and moved over, holding Xu Shi's hand and said, "Didn't the old man also say that I look like your aunt? Come on, come on, mom loves you... um..."

Before she finished speaking, she met Xu Shi's strange gaze, and then she realized that what she said seemed a little inappropriate.

"So, you can play games with grandpa, but you should at least learn something else, right?"

Xu Shi rolled his eyes at her. With such a good opportunity for cultivation, it was quite remarkable that Miss Black Rabbit didn't improve her emotional intelligence at all... She wasn't even trying to comfort the person to the point. Instead, it sounded like she was trying to take advantage of him?

But considering that her intentions were good, he didn't say much and just tapped her forehead lightly.

"Hey, that hurts!"

"If you keep talking nonsense next time, the pain will be yet to come."

Xu Shi didn't give in to her and raised his hand to slap her without any expression.

"There won't be a next time. Just be sad on your own. No one will comfort you."

Gu Yi shrank back and complained in the most cowardly tone.

"Haha, okay, okay."

Xu Shi smiled, "I know you don't mean that... Let's talk about something serious. I guess you'll be busy for a while, so cheer up."

"How to say it specifically?"

Miss Black Rabbit nodded with a pursed mouth, but did not object.

Although she didn't care much about what was happening outside, she knew that Xu Shi had some mess to clean up recently.

Then she still said the same thing, just do whatever you ask her to do.

"I will contact the Inspection Bureau later and work with them to build a security system."

Xu Shi continued, "As the person in charge of the Snake Ring, you will definitely be in charge of this matter. When the time comes, you can use your expertise to help me focus on a few points that need to be guarded against."

"...Will the Inspection Bureau agree?"

Before Gu Yi could say anything, Su Lin asked first.

It didn't sound like a problem on the surface, but when she thought about it carefully, she found that this matter had a significant impact... Mainly, in this way, the range that the "Snake Ring" could monitor through network means would be wider, and it is still unknown whether it would radiate to the entire Night Sin City.

Xu Shi said it lightly, but in fact this was a further encroachment - to be honest, if it was just the City Hall and the Audit Bureau, it wouldn't really matter, they wouldn't dare to disagree, but the same might not be true for other consortiums.

In the past, everyone kept to their own corners when it came to online methods, and didn't interfere with each other. If the young master really did this, would others think he was interfering? This was something that had to be taken into consideration.

"That depends on whether Director Tang can withstand the pressure."

Xu Shi was not worried about this. Regardless of his current relationship with Tang Shuang, apart from this level, the other party probably also wanted to move up a level in the current situation. Now that this olive branch was extended to her, she might not refuse to accept it.

Furthermore, under subtle operation, "Snake Ring" is currently the big boss that suppresses others. Even if this matter is noticed by the remaining few consortiums, the voices of opposition may not be very loud.

In other words, whether they object or not, he has to do this thing - ambition alone is not enough without action. You can't just do nothing because you will encounter resistance, right? Sorry, that's not Mr. Xu's style.

Su Lin didn't comment, but she felt that the young master was more confident than she thought. When did you become so close to the guy from the Inspection Bureau...

As for her concerns, she didn't have many - the fact was that as someone who had always been with Xu Shi, she probably knew best what the young master was thinking.

Lin Wenhua and Shen Qin were causing trouble, including the missing Shen He...even Long Tianding was probably not his main concern.

Xu Shi’s real purpose was to use these events to conduct a thorough cleanup of the Night Sin City, and other things were nothing more than inducements.

In fact, he was the one who pushed many things behind the scenes, integrating these restless factors together and solving them...Su Lin could even imagine that once these obstacles were gone, the "Snake Ring" in the future would definitely become an existence on the same level as the "Refraction" and "Mianhe" back then. There are already some signs of this now, right?

Thinking of this, she felt only relief in her heart - the child not only grew up, but was getting bigger and bigger.

Gu Yi didn’t consider as many things as her, she was focusing on another angle.

"Me and the Inspection Bureau... the one at the cocktail party?"

Stop it!

The fact is that until now, Miss Black Rabbit still has an inexplicable fear of the Inspection Bureau, even with Xu Shi's protection.

This is what it feels like to have a guilty conscience.

I have heard that some senior people in the industry have been recruited by the city hall...but the problem is that she doesn't seem to have experienced this?

So when she thought about working with the black hats from the Inspection Bureau, she still felt a little overwhelmed.

But then I thought, I haven't been exposed yet, so nothing should go wrong...

Yes, yes, yes, you can do it, Gu Xiaoyi, stand up!

I secretly encouraged myself, and the car just stopped.

"Well, when we get back, do you want to..."

Miss Black Rabbit, who had calmed down, breathed a long sigh of relief, hugged Xu Shi's arm and whispered.

It must be said that playing games with the old man is indeed fun, but there are some things that cannot be replaced by games. Of course, I have been thinking about her after not seeing her for so long.
