Chapter 562 - 342: Different Battlefields (2)
The woman carrying an axe didn’t reply. She tilted her head, looking at the protrusion faintly visible through the other person’s black fishnet clothing, and suddenly reached out to poke it."Can you make money with this?"
The woman in lace stockings didn’t dodge. It’s common for eager customers to want to inspect the goods, but the other’s eyes clearly lacked desire, and the cold fingertips made her hair stand on end.
The woman carrying the axe frowned; the reaction was much weaker than she had imagined.
But if someone like her could earn money, why couldn’t she?
Thinking of this, her frown relaxed again.
The woman in lace stockings found it a bit strange, crossed her arms, and asked with a hint of probing, "How do you intend to make money?"
The other woman thought for a moment and decisively said, "Do business, earn a lot of money!"
The woman in lace stockings looked at the other’s dirty yet inherently good face, paused, and replied with some peculiarity, "Do you want to be like me?"
"Yes!"
Seeing the other’s resolute determination, like facing death, the woman in lace stockings seemed to see her past self. The dissatisfaction from being offended was quickly dispersed, replaced by a trace of pity.
Actually, it wasn’t much of an offense. Over time, this kind of touch felt no different from other parts.
Her gaze softened, her fingers brushing aside the dried blood adhered to the other’s bangs, asking softly, "What’s your name?"
The woman blinked blankly.
She smelled the cherry-flavored nail polish on the other’s fingernails, suddenly recalling that it had been a long time since anyone called her by her name. That group called her by a string of numbers; what was her name again?
Painful red filled the woman’s eyes, and she couldn’t help but rub her head.
Something in her memory flashed brightly, like sunlight reflecting off a blade.
"Mirror," she suddenly said.
"What?"
The woman in lace stockings was taken aback, wondering why the name was so odd.
"My name is Mirror. Now, I want to know how to make money and where my battlefield is."
The woman in lace stockings rejected two random business inquiries and gently led the woman upstairs by the hand. "Of course, in bed."
...
Inside the armed train, carriage number one.
As Mr. Shu stood up, Su Huan, sitting at the desk, smiled and said, "I hope we cooperate happily. Do you need me to see you off?"
Seeing that the other didn’t even bother to get up, Mr. Shu could only sigh and turn to leave.
As soon as he stepped out, he saw Shu Wei walking in, holding a stack of documents.
Whether it was an illusion or not, he felt that Shu Wei exuded more femininity.
The latter merely nodded, "Finished talking?"
"Are you doing well on the train?"
Mr. Shu asked somewhat complexly.
An outsider might easily mistake this for Mr. Shu’s concern for his daughter’s situation,
but Shu Wei, who understood him, knew this was about her identity on the train.
Perhaps there was concern, but it occupied a very small fraction.
The little parental care was divided into dozens of parts, how much could remain?
Moreover, she wasn’t a newcomer after twenty years; if he was going to care, he would have done it earlier. Why wait until now?
"Not bad. I’m now the train conductor’s secretary and life assistant, that is, a bed partner, though recently upgraded to lover, a position much higher than Su Reya’s. She can’t even climb into Su Huan’s bed now."
Shu Wei’s voice was cold, yet laden with rich irony.
Even with Mr. Shu’s thick skin, he wouldn’t want to talk about such matters with his daughter, so he could only change the subject, "Want to go for a walk with me?"
Shu Wei shook her head, saying, "Before the auction starts, there’s a lot of goods trading. It might help you stabilize your position in the Black Kite, but I have things to do, so I won’t accompany you."
Mr. Shu could only watch complexly as his daughter’s silhouette vanished into carriage number one.
...
"Knowing you were so sharp-tongued, I should’ve let you negotiate earlier."
Su Huan said blandly.
Shu Wei’s mouth curled into a faint smile, "Just from being around it."
Su Huan’s actions paused, a difficult-to-decipher look in his eyes, "You really want to send Su Reya to my bed?"
Shu Wei neatly arranged the documents beside Su Huan, tucking a stray hair, "If you don’t mind that my father has used her, I’ll call her over. She’ll be thrilled."
Shu Wei spoke with calm detachment, not minding placing women on the train conductor’s bed, the more the better.
"These are matters to handle tomorrow, ordered by priority."
Su Huan glanced at the thickness of the documents. Even if subordinates reported with minimal wording as required, finishing this many files would take at least two hours, processing them another four at least.
A force generates various issues daily. Though his patience is still very poor now, it’s not as irritable as at the beginning.
"Leave them be, tomorrow then."
Su Huan’s attention shifted to the screen, displaying progress on various projects.
Including Zhijin Construction, zombie clearance, and progress in major laboratories, most would conclude in two months.
The room plunged into silence.
This was their usual interaction routine. A topic started aimlessly vanishes abruptly, followed by long silence until the next issue.
But today some part of the routine was missing, Shu Wei sensed it in her marrow and muscles.
"What did he talk to you about?"
