Chapter 996: The Part-Time Expert (12)
When Si Chen woke up again, it was night time.
It was dark outside. Only a small lamp lit up the room.
The girl sat in her chair with the game helmet on her head. She didn’t guard against him at all.
If she was a kidnapper, she was too bold.
Si Chen touched his head. It was bandaged up.

Si Chen got off the bed. He found the cellphone charger on the table and charged his phone. He kept glancing at the girl beside him.
He felt weird.
He touched his chest. It felt hot…
Something seemed to be burning inside him.
Ding!

The sound of messages woke him up from his thoughts. He had turned on his cellphone subconsciously and messages kept popping up.
Si Chen sent his location to his assistant.
His assistant came quickly. Si Chen silently left the dormitory.
He didn’t know that after he left, Ming Shu took off her game helmet.
This little demon seemed a bit strange this time…
Was he trying to get her attention by pretending to not recognize her?
Ming Shu stood at the window and looked at the car that was driving away.
…

Mr. Si, you…
the assistant looked at the bandage on Si Chen’s head and regarded him with concern.

Give me the information about the person…
Si Chen thought for a moment,
the person called Ji He. Give me her information.


Yes.
The assistant’s mission was to complete all the tasks Si Chen assigned to him.

Have you found who attacked me?


According to the first round of investigations, it should be someone who wants to stop our plan. However, we have not caught the person,
the assistant said.

Investigate it!
Si Chen shouted in anger.
I am not someone who can be easily bullied.


Yes.

The assistant lowered his head and worked on the two orders that Si Chen gave him.
Si Chen looked out of the window and watched the lights that flew past his car. He seemed to be in deep thought.
…
The next day, Ming Shu was called to the top level of the villa once she arrived.
She only reached the entrance of the top level the last time. She left after passing the documents to the assistant. This was her first time stepping into the top level.
She passed a corridor and entered a transparent greenhouse.
The man’s office was in the greenhouse.

Ji He!
Si Chen gritted his teeth as he called her name.
Si Chen wore a cap. He might have changed his style because of the cap as he was not wearing his usual suit. Instead, he wore a sports attire.

Hello, Mr. Si.
Ming Shu smiled as she greeted him.
Si Chen looked at his assistant. The assistant understood him and left the room. He closed the door behind him.
Si Chen pressed a button. The glass walls around them started to change. They could see what was happening outside but the people outside would not be able to look in.
Si Chen looked angry.
You did it?

Ming Shu said with a serious face,
I was applying medicine for you.


Bullshit!
Si Chen took off his cap and pointed at the back of his head.
Do you have to shave my head like this in order to apply medicine?

How was he supposed to meet people like this?

It was my first time…
Ming Shu smiled.
I will get better after more practice.

Si Chen sneered.
…
Ming Shu went down to pack her things. Wu Qing came over and asked her with concern,
Junior Sister, how did you offend Mr. Si?


I shaved his hair. It can still grow again so I don’t understand why he’s so angry.
Ming Shu packed away her snacks first.

…
Wu Qing was speechless. What did she mean by she shaved Mr. Si’s hair?
Mr. Si’s hair!
Mr. Si… How was his junior sister able to shave his hair?

He chased you away?
If that was the case, getting chased out was the best case scenario that could happen to her.

No. He asked me to be his assistant,
Ming Shu said.

…

Ming Shu’s new office was just outside the greenhouse. There were two other desks beside her. They were all for Si Chen’s assistants.

Ji He, Mr. Si asked you to get him some tea.

Assistant #1 came out of the greenhouse and ordered Ming Shu to do things the moment Ming Shu placed her things down.

Okay.

Ming Shu smiled sweetly.
Assistant #1 was stunned. His face turned gentle.
Ming Shu made the tea and carried it inside.

Why didn’t you all remember what I said last time? What are your ears for?
Si Chen threw the document in the face of the person in front of him.
Get out!

The person picked up the document and rushed out.
Ming Shu placed the tea on the table.
Mr. Si, please have some tea.

Si Chen was already angry. When he saw the girl that shaved his head, he got even more irritated. He decided to drink some tea before scolding her.

Pu—

Si Chen’s face turned red.

Mr. Si, if you dare to ask me to do this kind of thing again, there might be other things added inside your tea.
This little demon was getting bolder.

You…
Si Chen couldn’t speak at all. The tea was so spicy his tongue burned. He fumed in anger.
Ming Shu smiled at him and left.
After Ming Shu left, Si Chen rushed to find some water.

Mr. Si, we just received news that…


Get out!

Assistant #1 froze. He saw Si Chen’s back facing him. He didn’t dare to ask anything and just retreated out of the room quickly.
Assistant #1 looked at the new assistant who was eating snacks in her seat. He then glanced at the room again and fell into deep thought.
Assistant #1 only regained his senses after Si Chen ordered him to come in.

Mr. Si, we just received news that the person who hit you was found. He was tied up and thrown on the rooftop. From the surveillance camera, he was the one that brought you up the rooftop. We also found out… that Ji He was following you.


So Ji He saved me?
Si Chen’s voice was a little hoarse due to the spice.

The surveillance camera didn’t show how Ji He came down…

Since it didn’t show how Ji He came down, it wouldn’t show how he came down, either.
That was why they found it weird.
There were surveillance cameras all around the building. How could two people come down without being caught on camera?

I understand.

Si Chen asked the assistant to leave.
…
Si Chen wanted to take revenge for his shaved hair so he tried to make Ming Shu’s life difficult. However, in the end, he was the one who suffered.
Assistant #2 was puzzled.
Mr. Si should hate Ji He, right? Why won’t he just chase her away?

Assistant #1 said mysteriously,
How will we know what Mr. Si is thinking?

Assistant #2 replied,
I think that Ji He is quite nice. She smiles at everyone.

Assistant #1:
…
 You never see how angry she makes Mr. Si.


Mr. Si.

Si Chen threw the documents to Assistant #2.
Where is Ji He?


She’s still here…
Assistant #2 looked at Ming Shu’s seat.
She might have went to the toilet.


Ask her to come in later.

When Ming Shu came back, she was notified that Si Chen was looking for her.
Si Chen sat on his chair with crossed legs. He looked like an emperor waiting to be served.

What do you want?

Si Chen pointed at the chair opposite him.
Enter the game.

Ming Shu:
…

You called me over to play a game?

What is he trying to do?

I will just take on whatever comes my way.

Ming Shu sat down and put on the game helmet. She entered the game.
She received a few friend requests the moment she logged in. She hadn’t turned off her friend requests since she logged in to the game the last time. Ming Shu went to turn it off, but at the moment, a new friend request came in.
[Si Chen wants to add you as a friend.]

Ming Shu’s hand shook. She clicked the reject button.
Si Chen: Come to the lava map.
Wind He Rising: Why should I?
Si Chen: I am your superior!
Wind He Rising: Just retrench me then. I will thank you.
After a while, Ming Shu saw Si Chen coming over himself. He seemed no different from how he looked like in the real world. He looked like a bandit.
