Chapter 94: Coaxing Creditors

 Jin Si sneered before Qi Wu could answer him.

 “You use me as a tool?”

As if he didn’t want to hear Qi Wu’s answer at all, he refused quickly and neatly: “I don’t agree.”

However, there was always a sense of boredom and gloominess in his tone.

 A minute later, Qi Wu looked at Jin Si's back as he left angrily, and blinked slowly.

 Jin Si is angry. Very serious.

Qi Wu suddenly realized this.

There was a confused and confused look on her face, with a hint of confusion and panic hidden underneath.

 But she knows that angry people need to be coaxed.

So Qi Wu looked in the direction of the kitchen, stood up and walked in.

Jin Si never stopped her from entering the kitchen, but he also never let her cook. He seemed to always be able to arrange everything properly and keep Qi Wu under his control.

 As a result, Jin Si, who was in control, seemed to lose control for a moment.

Qi Wu looked at the food already cooked on the kitchen table and tilted his head.

If she hadn't interrupted him just now, Jin Si would have taken out the food and placed it on the dining table, and then calmly called her to eat.

That was the most normal day-to-day life between them a month ago.

 But just now, she messed it up.

Qi Wu felt that terrible emotion for the first time.

She stood there quietly, her back tinged with a hint of loneliness, like a goddess isolated from the world, unable to integrate into the human emotions.

 After a while, she made a phone call.

When the call was connected, Qi Wu asked softly: "Tong Luo, can you teach me how to make cookies?"

In the villa, Tong Luo would occasionally make snacks and feed them to her roommates. Qi Wu once watched her baking cookies from behind like a little tail.

There are everything you need in the kitchen, but unfortunately they are apparently forgotten in the corner because of the owner.

"ah??"

Tong Luo didn't react for a while when he heard Qi Wu's request.

  Qi Wu rarely asks others, or rather he never asks for help. Therefore, Tong Luo couldn't hide his surprise when he heard that Qi Wu wanted to learn how to make cookies.

"May I?"

Qi Wu asked again.

 Tong Luo quickly came to his senses and answered her subconsciously: "Of course!"

 Then she suddenly realized that Qi Wu's tone seemed a little depressed? This is not because Tong Luo is sensitive, but because Qi Wu's emotions are always calm, but if she has other emotions, they will be clearly felt.

So Tong Luo slowed down his breathing and cautiously tried: "Qi Wu. Why do you suddenly want to make cookies?"

　　The few seconds the two of them were silent seemed to have been extended. Until Qi Wu's gentle yet firm voice came - "Coax the creditor."

 Tong Luo: "."

 Why is she talking too much?

Although she didn’t know the specific situation between Qi Wu and the financial sponsor, Tong Luo still felt something called ‘dog food’ thrown in her face.

Perhaps the financial owner is the one who can enlighten Qi Wu?

 So for the next time, Tong Luo was very reluctant while teaching on the phone.

As a poisonous Wei, or a poisonous Wei who hopes that her idol will devote herself to reaching the top of her career, Tong Luo doesn’t want Qi Wu to be delayed by falling in love, but she also doesn’t want Qi Wu to understand nothing.

 So until Qi Wu’s cookies were baked, Tong Luo was still confused.

 Until Qi Wu’s gentle voice of thanks rang out: “Tong Luo, thank you.”

 “No, it’s okay.”

Tong Luo sighed imperceptibly, "I wish you good luck coaxing me."

 When it came to the word "coaxing", she seemed to grit her teeth unwillingly.

That man is really ignorant! He actually asked Qi Wu to coax him!

 Wrong! How dare he be angry with Qi Wu!

Tong Luo Duwei's thoughts continued to wander endlessly, but Qi Wu had hung up the phone and quietly looked at the freshly baked cookies in front of him.

She placed a few small pieces of simple butter cookies on the plate, and there seemed to be a faint sweetness floating in the air.

Qi Wu took the plate and turned around to leave the kitchen.

Jin Si left with a sullen expression and went to the study.

 This is where he often comes.

 He was sitting on the sofa next to the floor-to-ceiling window, and his whole body seemed to sink into the soft sofa.

There was no light on in the study room. The light from outside came in through the window, but stopped near Jin Si.

Half of his appearance was hidden in the gloom, giving off a vague sense of gloom.

He was thinking, but even he couldn't figure out what he was thinking about. He just remained motionless like a statue.

 It has been so long that he has blurred the concept of time and can no longer remember the purpose of sitting here in the first place.

After a long time, he suddenly realized that he was thinking about why he was so angry and angry with Qi Wu.

 He ​​seems to be cold and arrogant, and almost everything is ignored by him. From this point of view, he and Shen Xi are the same kind of people.

 He should be angry at Qi Wu for using him and treating him as a tool. This is tantamount to challenging his dignity. Although there are few things that can arouse his interest, he still habitually keeps everything in his hands.

 So he would naturally be angry with Qi Wu.

 This is a matter of course.

However, as soon as this conclusion was confirmed by him, another voice suddenly popped up in his mind in the next moment - is this really the case?

Jin Si suddenly frowned.

 The wrinkles on his eyebrows gave his whole face a somewhat calm and self-defeating temperament, like an aloof king trapped by some problem.

 At this time, there was a knock on the study door.

 The crisp and rhythmic knock on the door suddenly brought Jin Si back to his senses.

Jin Si did not look back or make a sound.

 The door of the study room is like a decoration to Little Lemon Candy. Before, she only knocked on it symbolically and walked in directly.

 Because it was something he acquiesced to.

But a minute passed, and the study door still wasn't opened.

Jin Si frowned again as if impatient. He couldn't help but sneered sarcastically. Did she know that he was angry?

 But this failed to improve his already gloomy and impatient mood, and instead made it worse.

 He said coldly: "Come in."

There seemed to be a hint of urgency in his tone.

There was a slight sound of opening the door, and Qi Wu obediently poked his head in from the outside. The look of his head made Jin Si's eyes move slightly.

 But what concerned him more was what Qi Wu was holding in his hand.

His eyebrows moved and his tone was cold: "What are you doing?"

Qi Wu looked at Jin Si's stern face, and there seemed to be a trace of gloom remaining in her eyes. She quickly stepped forward and stood in front of him.

Noticing the unscrupulous approach of Little Lemon Candy, Jin Si pursed the corners of his lips without leaving a trace. His body, which was already maintaining a stiff movement, became tense due to her approach.

What tricks is she trying to play?

Jin Si was thinking in his mind with some uncertainty.
