Operation Red Book

Chapter 165 A Confrontation Full of Humbleness

"Hey! Bofu is here! I have prepared everything for you! It is very troublesome for Mr. Zhu to wash and dress..."

"You stay here for a while and try some of the new snacks. It will be a good opportunity for us to see if there are any improvements."

Mingcan suddenly changed his normal behavior, with his mouth almost reaching the sky, and skipped to the kitchen to get some snacks.

Ivy stared blankly at the elegant and handsome man in front of her, not noticing her own gaffe at all.

"Ms. Ivy, are you all right?"

Bo Fu asked with a smile, his hands behind his back.

He looked to be in his 20s, but his expression was as calm and mature as that of an octogenarian.

"Ah? Ah!"

Ivy's pupils finally came into focus, and she hurriedly looked away, looking around.

She blinked several times, trying hard to suppress the upward curve of her lips.

"Ahem, my last name is Li, I'm Ai Wei, and I'm one of Mr. Zhu's assistants."

She stood up with a smile, respectfully extended her right hand to Bofu, and bowed slightly.

"Miss Mingcan has been praising you just now. I heard that you are...Sun Ce?"

Despite her doubts, Ivy still planned to get to the bottom of the matter.

"Just call me Bo Fu. There's no need to talk about the past. I've already achieved Nirvana and reborn. There's no need for me to stay in the mundane world any longer."

Bofu smiled politely, straightened his body and put his hands behind his back. He had already given an answer to Ivy's question.

Ivy felt a little embarrassed as she stretched her right hand in the air, but she had no intention of taking it back.

"You were born more than a thousand years earlier than me. Calling you by your courtesy name... Hehe, this is a bit inappropriate. In front of General Sun, I still have to be respectful."

"Lady Ivy, since you know the order of seniority, why don't you bow and extend your hand?"

"Ah! This... Today is different from the past. Society is progressing and the times are developing. A handshake is a courtesy in today's society."

"Sorry, I don't know the etiquette." Bo Fu nodded slightly with a sarcastic smile on his face.

"I don't know whether this is progress or regression. Women are not at home taking care of their husbands and children, but are running out to show their faces in public. Isn't this further corrupting the social etiquette?"

Ivy smiled awkwardly, put her hands away, and patted her clothes back and forth.

The person who came had bad intentions. Ivy felt a nameless anger burning in her heart.

She really found it hard to connect the dandy young man in front of her with the young general who dominated a region in the late Eastern Han Dynasty.

It might be because the sweet osmanthus fragrance was too strong, coupled with his hypocritical and arrogant words, which really made Ivy feel a little unhappy.

"Just call me Ivy. Haha. You must have been dead for too long and just came out. You are also an old antique. Haha. It's just a joke. Don't mind it."

"It's like this. You don't know the current social concept. Women are equal to men."

There was a hint of viciousness in Bofu's eyes, but more of arrogance. It was unknown which words had hurt him.

From smiling too much, Ivy's lips became cracked and stuck to her gums.

Seeing his face changing from pale to blue, Ivy felt delighted and quickly drank a sip of white tea. The anger in her heart subsided a little and she felt very comfortable.

"You're dead... Assistant Sun... Ah! You should call me Bo Fu. The name really suits the person. I'm not so lucky! After all, I came here several months before you. I'm the senior you need to learn from, right?"

"Of course, senior, Miss Ivy's skill in wielding a spear and a stick is truly admirable. I wonder how your father raised you... In short, I still have a lot to learn. Thank you for your care, Miss Ivy."

"After all, he is from Liu Biao's territory, hehe..."

Bofu's expression became even gloomier, and the two of them smiled, revealing their white teeth.

Until Mingcan came out with a large plate of dim sum, neither Ivy nor Bofu frowned, even though they saw each other's clenched fists.

God knows how anxious Ivy is. She can't understand the rules of this world anymore.

Let’s say it’s the world in the book, but Holmes and Moriarty have an inexplicable relationship.

It is said to be a world of gods and ghosts, where angels, demons and vampires are hiding in the human world and harming humans everywhere.

Speaking of the historical world, how could Sun Ce, who had died a thousand years ago, appear in London, England for no reason?

Various elements are mixed together and it is a mess.

Ivy rolled her eyes and felt like all her brain cells were dying.

"Bofu! Come and try this red date and taro paste cake. It's freshly made in the kitchen. See if you can get used to it!"

Mingcan had a happy face. He blew on the delicate and lovely pastry and personally brought it to Bofu's mouth.

"Zebra!" Ivy cursed angrily, "What about me!"

"You don't like eating red dates." Mingcan replied indifferently, "But our Bofu loves to eat them!" The tone and attitude were very different.

"Tsk!" Ivy crossed her arms with a look of disdain, looking exactly like the jealous Sherlock Holmes.

"Mr. Zhu is almost up. I want to show him the accounts of Muyunzhai. I've been away for half a month. These accounts are really...tsk tsk tsk!"

Ivy picked up the thick account book, shook her hair, and walked to the back room with a proud look on her face.

"Hey, Xiao Sun, come here quickly! Accounts are very important. Economy is the foundation of a country!"

Finally, Ivy turned around and glanced at Bofu, who had a gloomy face, and said in a sarcastic tone.
