our secret base

Chapter 92 Preparation Phase
When Yan Jingxing met Miss Xie in person again at her home, he found that the other person's expression was not very good-looking, with a sullen face, and he didn't know why he was dissatisfied.

"What's going on here?"

Yan Jingxing was a little surprised. He looked at the people passing by in a hurry. They were all unfamiliar faces that he had not recognized before.There is a constant stream of people coming and going.

……

The place where Miss Xie is currently living is said to have been originally planned to be used as a star hotel, so it covers a rather large area: except for the palace as the main building, which is a huge house with layers of rooms inside, There is also a courtyard composed of fountains, trees and large flower beds on the periphery.

In contrast, the number of housekeepers, maids, chefs, security guards, drivers, and cleaners serving Miss Xie is relatively small. The total number of resident staff does not exceed ten, and they are generally in their own rooms and working places. In the area, you can’t usually see it at all; Xie Yuzhi herself is a student, living a three-point and one-line life of "home-school-teaching school", and rarely has the opportunity to communicate with outsiders.

Therefore, the eldest lady's usual lifestyle is actually no different from those who live in isolation, like an independent princess who has stayed in a huge palace since birth and never went out.

...Of course, this is just the impression he had when he didn't get to know Yuzhi at the beginning, especially when he visited here for the first time, he was indeed a little shocked.

As for now, Yan Jingxing already knows what kind of person Xie Yuzhi is. Compared with a weak princess, she may be more like an independent queen, and the two have now become a fiancée relationship——

Yan Jingxing couldn't help but shook his head, and shook the chaotic thoughts that suddenly rushed out of his mind.

"A lot of people, what's going on?"

he asked.

Today's situation is obviously different from usual, holding or carrying decorations such as table flowers, lamps, balloons, etc., and bringing all kinds of fresh ingredients and kitchen utensils to the place, scattered throughout the hotel-style building and began to get busy.

And the girl standing on the stairs was crossing her hands with displeasure, pointing her arms from time to time with her slender fingers. The indifferent gaze that made him feel strange wandered around everyone who passed by, and occasionally whispered to those who came to report. After ordering, her expression softened only when she saw Yan Jingxing.

"You came."

Xie Yuzhi said.

Seeing that soft and lovely face, Yan Jingxing's weird thoughts that could not be restrained began to emerge again.

In the middle of the night for the past few days, he tossed and turned in bed unable to fall asleep. Weird thoughts always came to his mind, which even affected his mental state during the day.

The eldest lady said that dating at their age is a puppy relationship, so they have to make a marriage contract first... But no matter how you think about it, husband and wife are closer than lovers, right?

At that time, he was confused by the unexpected and sudden attack of the other party. When he thought about it afterwards, he couldn't help thinking about it, because there is no reason that a couple can't do things that can be done between lovers——

Yuzhi has already realized this, so what is she thinking?

He touched his lips.That day the girl kissed like a dragonfly, the soft and moist touch, with the rose-like fragrance, seemed to still remain on his lips.

She seems to have given the answer in her own way.

"What are you doing in a daze?"

Xie Yuzhi said that she used her hands to gather her jet-black hair around her ears, the bright sun illuminated the girl's bright skin as if it were transparent, and her lips exuded a crystal-like luster, making her look very attractive.Yan Jingxing subconsciously stared intently.

"Well, I originally asked you to come over to help, just to give us an excuse to spend more time together... Now it seems that I really need your help."

Yan Jingxing quickly restrained his mind and asked seriously:
"So, what is going on now? Where did these people come from?"

……

"They are the service staff I hired to hold banquets, and they are seconded from my father's hotel industry in other places."

After that, Xie Yuzhi explained her achievements to him.

Although Xie Jianye agreed to their marriage contract, he made a request:
He put his own daughter in charge of hosting the engagement party.Political and business people related to Xie Jianye and Jianyan Group, whether they are partners with close interest ties or casual acquaintances, will be invited.

After decades of hard work, Xie Jianye has established a huge network of interpersonal relationships in Jinjiang City, Shanyin City and other nearby cities. A junior high school girl is here to entertain, and Xie Jianye himself chooses to be the shopkeeper.

"According to what my father said, he will treat himself as a guest invited by chance, and leave the rest to me." Xie Yuzhi sighed softly.

"……what?"

Yan Jingxing opened his eyes wide.

"Here, Uncle Xie is joking with you, right? We are still junior high school students, is this what we should do at our age?"

"I thought the same way, but...'When I put aside the adults and entered into a marriage contract with a boy without authorization, I didn't consider myself a student?', he immediately refuted me like that."

"This is simply venting anger!"

Yan Jingxing couldn't help complaining.

"I think so too."

The corners of Xie Yuzhi's mouth turned up slightly, as if holding back a smile.

"I'm thinking that as a father, he might feel a little unwilling. It's the kind of feeling... that the father-in-law feels unhappy about his son-in-law."

"……is that so."

Yan Jingxing scratched the back of his head.To be honest, he still lacks a real sense of marriage contract, let alone son-in-law and father-in-law... This sounds too far away from a junior high school student.

"—That's why I decided to pull you in."

"Me, me?"

"Well. This is an agreement between the two of us, so don't try to escape."

"But……"

Yan Jingxing looked troubled.

At least Xie Yuzhi grew up in a wealthy family, and under the influence of his ears and eyes, there is always a way to take pictures of cats and tigers, but he really doesn't know anything about it.

Miss Xie noticed the hesitation on his face, and immediately guessed what the boy was thinking, she smiled softly.

"It doesn't matter, don't care about the result. Anyway, it's all the result of dad being the hands-off boss. Even if we mess up, it's not our responsibility."

"That's not good……"

Yan Jingxing couldn't help but complain again.He couldn't figure out whether the relationship between Xie Jianye and Xie Yuzhi, the father and daughter, was good or not. How could they dig each other's holes?

"It's nothing bad. On the other hand, if this matter is really important, my father won't let it go easily." Xie Yuzhi explained, "Maybe from the perspective of a businessman like my father, like he and those who have business cooperation The relationship between partners is ultimately maintained by interests, so I don't care about it."

As she spoke, her eyes fell on Yan Jingxing, and she noticed an unfastened button with her sharp eyes.So, the girl took two steps towards him, stretched out her hand to fasten the buttons for him.

"And in my opinion, there is actually a more important reason. Jing Xing, no one in this world has the qualifications to ask you to cater to and obey other people's ideas."

Xie Yuzhi didn't care about the skin-to-skin contact with him at all, she leaned over as if she was about to fall into his arms, her lowered eyebrows looked serious and charming.

"Even with my level of super power, it is unimaginably terrifying for ordinary people. I dare not tell my father, let alone you... Wait, it's strange, why is this button so difficult... "

"But, maybe it's broken."

Yan Jingxing unconsciously raised his head to look at the sky, moved his Adam's apple up and down, and swallowed.The familiar fragrance of roses once again surrounded him, piercing into his heart, like the smell he smelled when he dreamed back at midnight.

"Broken? Let's leave it like this." Xie Yuzhi patted his chest and said amusedly, "Although I told you not to care about those formalities, it's still a bit too much to wear broken clothes... Ah, Could it be that you are short of clothes because you burned them because of your transformation? Just tell me, and I will take you to pick them out."

"……No shortage."

In fact, the real reason is that this dress was brought to him by Chun Zao, and he probably didn't pay attention when he brought it.

Thinking of this, Yan Jingxing subconsciously changed the topic:

"I'll pay attention later."

"Well. Of course I know that you are not the kind of person who gets carried away and bullies the weak when you become powerful, but the powerful itself treats everyone with a normal heart, and firmly says 'no' when needed Confidence."

Miss Xie's tone was so gentle that she sounded like a persuasive teacher or mother.

"So, just do what you feel."

Yan Jingxing thought it made sense. He nodded and asked again:

"——Yuzhi, you said so much, maybe it's because you, like me, don't know the so-called 'social etiquette' at all?"

Xie Yuzhi's expression froze slightly.

"Uh, I think I get it..."

"...Yes." In the end, Miss Xie could only honestly admit, "I have taken a lot of courses since elementary school, and the etiquette class is because I find it boring, so I usually just skip it."

"You still skip class..."

A faint blush appeared on the eldest lady's face from embarrassment to anger.

"Okay, that's the end of this topic, let's go, ready to start working!"

The girl turned and left.

"Wait! I have something else to do."

Yan Jingxing quickly called her to stop.

"Chunzao said she won't come, I always feel... her mood seems a bit strange, did you two talk about something yesterday?"

Xie Yuzhi stopped but did not look back.She replied:
"It's nothing, I just told her about our decision to get engaged."

……really.Yan Jingxing had guessed it.He wanted to sigh, but he didn't know why.

"Then how did she react?"

His tone was careful.

"I don't know. After all, she hasn't replied to me since that night until now. I plan to confirm with her again after some time."

Xie Yuzhi didn't look back, her voice was calm.

"If you really care, just ask her directly."

Yan Jingxing nodded silently and then followed her back.
