Madame is Pretending to be an Academic Slacker Again!

”Wait a moment, working for others isn’t as good as working for me. Let me introduce a few jobs for you, enough salary for you to eat Ten-Complete Great Replenishing Pills like candy. But, are you really sure you want to work?” Qin Xin asked.

The girls immediately crowded around, their eyes sparkling with light: ”Sure!”

Qin Xin: ”Alright then.”

She still underestimated the girls’ love for beauty.

Swiping open her phone, she sent Young Master Hai a message: ”About the project you mentioned last time, please make the arrangements. I have people here.”

＝＝

In the midst of opulent luxury, Young Master Hai lazily bounced up from the velvet sofa.

He seemed full of energy, grinning at his phone: ”Miss Lan, oh Miss Lan, you’re quite the little tormentor. Ignored me for days, then came with a big one.”

He quickly replied to Qin Xin with three words: ”Make it happen!”

Then, he barked orders at his men as if his life depended on it: ”The project I mentioned two days ago, is it ready? Start it immediately!”

His subordinate scratched his head: ”Young Master, it’s only been prepared for three days; the staff isn’t complete yet...”

Young Master Hai threw a vase at him: ”Anyone not ready can drop dead!”

His subordinate hurried out to get things done.

In the silent room, Young Master Hai’s smile slowly grew, his earlier ferocity vanished in an instant. He carefully composed a message to his phone: ”Miss Lan, the project you entrusted to me is underway, and I’m also looking into the Twelve Elders’ information for you. Shouldn’t we meet to discuss it?”

He wrote a passage, then deleted it word by word, muttering to himself: ”No, this sounds a bit arrogant, might make her feel threatened. Hmm, she doesn’t like that feeling; I can’t say it like that. Try another way.”

After thinking it over, he revised the message to his phone: ”Miss Lan, the project you handed over is done. I have some information on the Twelve Elders, but some intel I’m unsure of its authenticity. Could we meet to discuss?”

After finishing, he read it again, satisfied, he muttered to himself: ”Not bad, this tone is humble and low-key, she’ll definitely like it.”

Just about to press send.

Suddenly, a gust of cold wind swept through and the door behind him swung open.

He was focusing on sending the message to Qin Xin, impatiently shouting, ”I told you to get the job done quickly, stop coming back to whine. If you don’t prepare it today, you know the meaning of the word ’dead’!”

He assumed it was his earlier subordinate returning to report difficulties.

To his surprise.

The cold wind hit the back of his neck, and a cold, deep male voice spoke simultaneously: ”I don’t know how to write the word ’dead’, but if you dare send the message, I’ll teach you its meaning.”

Young Master Hai’s breath tightened!

He felt a sharp blade against the back of his neck.

And a glimpse of a corner of a white robe fluttering in the wind.

The brothel is one of his bases, well-hidden.

Though he has many enemies, few people in the Empire know he’s here.

Even if they knew, with the complex layouts along the way, very few can enter his room undetected.

But this man not only knew, he entered directly, even successfully threatened him.

First impression: this man’s background is extraordinary.

Young Master Hai took a deep breath and put on a negotiating smile: ”Sir, what kind of business do you want to do, what intel do you need, I have everything here. Shall we sit down and talk?”

Unexpectedly.

The man in the white robe behind him coolly said: ”Delete the message first!”

Young Master Hai was stunned.

A few seconds later he realized, the man in the white robe was referring to the message he was about to send to Qin Xin.
