Chapter 164 The Greedy Xia Mi
Holding the black egg, Ye Jingchen walked out of Chu Tianjiao's safe house.
Walking onto the street, he looked up at the roof of a flat building, bent his knees slightly, and leaped onto the rooftop.
It moved swiftly atop building after building, disappearing into the hazy snowy night.
Inside the "villa".
In her sleep, Xia Mi clearly sensed a familiar yet terrifying presence approaching.
She suddenly opened her eyes!
"Could it be..."
Just then!
"Creak!"
The sound of a window being pushed open came from the living room.
"Has another thief broken into the house?!" Xia Mi felt the hairs on her body stand on end. She hurriedly got out of bed, not even bothering to put on her shoes.
Xia Mi tiptoed, her delicate little feet, encased in white fleece stockings, making no sound as she stepped onto the marble floor.
Xia Mi quietly carried a baseball bat in her hand and tiptoed towards the living room door. When she came out of the living room, she left a small crack in the door.
Xia Mi peeked through the crack in the door. The living room was dark, with no lights on.
Xia Mi vaguely saw a tall, furtive figure!
She pushed open the door and rushed over!
"You audacious thief!" Xia Mi shouted, swinging her baseball bat forcefully. "Hasagi!"
"Boom" sound!
It was very dull; the baseball bat felt like it had hit steel bars.
"Ouch!" Xia Mi rubbed her bottom, as she was jolted away by the rebound and landed hard on the ground.
With a click!
The switch for the chandelier in the living room was turned on.
"It's me!" Ye Jingchen glanced at Xia Mi sitting on the ground and said coldly.
When Xia Mi saw that the person who came was Ye Jingchen, her pupils shrank sharply.
She silently put the baseball bat behind her back, smiled awkwardly, revealing two rows of big white teeth, "Hehe, boss, sorry, I thought a thief broke into the house, haha."
Ye Jingchen didn't argue with Xia Mi. He reached out and grabbed Xia Mi by the back of her collar, lifting her up. "Go cook. I haven't eaten yet."
After saying that, Ye Jingchen threw the black egg onto the sofa. He had tested it on his way home and found that the shell of the Black King's Egg was incredibly hard.
Xia Mi glanced at the enormous black egg, sensing the aura emanating from it, and exclaimed inwardly in shock, "Yes! That's the aura! What I sensed just now was this huge black egg!"
I feel like if I took one bite, I wouldn't even need to devour my brother anymore!
Xia Mi swallowed hard, turned to look at Ye Jingchen, and rubbed her hands together. "Boss... do you use this big egg to cook?"
"This egg is so big! It can easily handle scrambled eggs with tomatoes, fried rice with eggs, and fried noodles with eggs!"
Xia Mi stuck out her tongue and licked her lips, revealing her little fangs. "Can I have some later, boss?"
Please, please!
Ye Jingchen: "..."
He rolled his eyes at Xia Mi, "Eat my ass, go cook!"
"Oh, oh!" Xia Mi nodded repeatedly, got up from the ground, ran into the kitchen, and got busy.
As Xia Mi quickly chopped the vegetables, she puffed out her cheeks and muttered, "Damn boss, stinky boss, so stingy!"
A moment later, Xia Mi brought two dishes to the table.
A plate of braised pork belly, and a plate of sweet and sour pork ribs.
He then sat down opposite Ye Jingchen, staring at the big black egg on the sofa, seemingly lost in thought.
Ye Jingchen slammed his hand on the table, making a loud thud, and stared at Xia Mi with wide eyes, "There's no more food?"
Xia Mi shuddered in fright, averting her gaze from the large black egg and blinking, "Aren't two dishes enough, boss?"
"Nonsense, at least four dishes and a soup!" Ye Jingchen straightened his back and looked at Xia Mi's light yellow eyes. "Tell me honestly, have you run out of the money I gave you for groceries?"
"I'm innocent!" Xia Mi took out the remaining wad of money from her bag and laid it out one by one, including five large red and white bills.
"Boss! I didn't dare to spend a single penny recklessly!"
Xia Mi looked at Ye Jingchen with tears in her eyes.
"You spent five hundred on groceries in just two days? Are prices in Beiping really that high?" Ye Jingchen frowned, somewhat skeptical of Xia Mi's words.
He held out his palm to Xia Mi, "Let me see the ledger!"
"Oh... okay..." Xia Mi nodded softly, glancing at Ye Jingchen somewhat guiltily.
Xia Mi took out a small ledger from the pocket of her coat in front of her apron and respectfully handed it to Ye Jingchen.
"Two white radishes cost fifty yuan!"
"Ninety-nine yuan for a pound of chicken legs?!"
Ye Jingchen couldn't stand it any longer. He slammed the ledger onto the table, his eyes wide with anger. "Is this still Beiping? Did you fly all the way to Haishi to buy groceries?"
Seeing that she couldn't hide it any longer, Xia Mi immediately covered her eyes and pretended to cry, making a choked sob, "Boss, my life is so miserable!"
Xia Mi reached into her pocket and pulled out two hundred-yuan bills folded into small squares.
"Boss, I promise I'll never do it again! Please forgive me this time! Waaaaah~"
Ye Jingchen narrowed his eyes slightly, "If you need money urgently, just tell me. It's not like I can't give you an advance on your salary. Why be greedy?"
Xia Mi couldn't help but murmur softly, "Nothing beats the convenience of embezzlement..."
"Huh?" Ye Jingchen raised his voice, "What did you say?"
"No!" Xia Mi realized she had misspoke and waved her hands repeatedly, saying, "Boss, you don't know, I have a mentally challenged older brother at home, and I have to support him. I have no choice! Waaaaah TT"
"Has Fenrir also taken human form?"
This is someone who is willing to give up power for his sister.
"What a loyal and righteous dragon, unwilling to devour Jormungandr!"
Ye Jingchen muttered to himself, he still had a good impression of Fenrir, this silly dragon.
Ye Jingchen took out his wallet from his pocket, took out all the hundred-yuan bills inside, and placed them in front of Xia Mi.
Xia Mi stared wide-eyed at the huge stack of money, the "¥" symbol spinning in her pupils.
She eagerly reached out and picked it up, then dipped her thumb and forefinger on her tongue.
They started counting the money with a whooshing sound.
“Fourteen thousand yuan! Wow, boss, you’re so generous…” Xia Mi said excitedly, but halfway through her sentence, she looked up at Ye Jingchen.
Seeing Ye Jingchen's cold expression, Xia Mi instantly realized something was wrong.
She was horrified: "Oh no, is the boss getting rid of me? Are they going to give me money for getting out of here?"
Xia Mi could clearly distinguish between a full meal and having a full meal every day.
Xia Mi silently placed the money on the table and pushed it toward Ye Jingchen.
She cried, "Boss, I promise I'll never do it again! Please don't fire me!"
"I didn't say I was kicking you out. Just tell me if you need anything. Don't be greedy for money in the future."
Ye Jingchen asked, puzzled, and pushed the money over again, saying, "Take this money tomorrow and buy some gifts to visit your brother. Bring him home to take care of him."
"Bring him home?" Upon hearing this, Xia Mi thought of Fenrir, embedded in the concrete.
Xia Mi's face froze instantly...
