Chapter 136 If you don’t let me stay, I’ll act like a spoiled child!
Although in terms of martial arts, Lin Xiaoxuan can only be defeated in seconds, but in terms of financial resources, Chu Zhao and Lin Xiaoxuan are incomparable.
Chu Zhao was unhappy, very unhappy! His face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, and he clenched his fists.
If Gu Xi hadn't been there, he would have definitely beaten Lin Xiaoxuan to a pulp.
What can Gu Xi do? Coax her.
"Don't worry, Zhao. My cousin will stay for a few days and then leave. He is busy with his business and cannot stay in the capital forever. Besides, I am not good at managing the affairs of the mansion, so let my cousin be my housekeeper for a few days and help me settle down in the mansion."
Chu Zhao's expression then relaxed a little and he glared at Lin Xiaoxuan, "Did you hear that clearly? You are just the housekeeper!"
Also, Axi calls him Azhao, but before that he always called him Brother Chu. This is enough to show that he holds a very special position in Axi's heart!
Chu Zhao turned his gaze to Gu Xi. When he looked at Lin Xiaoxuan, his eyes were cold, but they turned into affectionate ones in an instant.
Lin Xiaoxuan was shocked, and his scout occupational disease kicked in. He wanted to bring Chu Zhao to modern times to be an actor and make sure he would become a global hit.
Chu Zhao stood in front of Gu Xi, separating Lin Xiaoxuan, and said:
"Ah Xi, I am always under the control of my grandfather at home, and I have to deal with all kinds of relatives. It's more peaceful here. I see that your house is very big, so you don't need a place for me to live, right?"
Before Gu Xi could speak, Lin Xiaoxuan stopped her and said:
"That's impossible. How can unmarried men and women live together? Do you still want my cousin's reputation?"
As a modern man, Lin Xiaoxuan certainly doesn't care about the distinction between men and women. It is common for unmarried couples to live together in modern times. He simply wants to make things difficult for Chu Zhao.
"Axi's current identity is Qi Dasheng, and I am Qi Dasheng's comrade-in-arms. How can living in Zhenxibo's Mansion damage my reputation?" Chu Zhao retorted to him using Lin Xiaoxuan's original words.
Gu Xi hesitated. Would these two guys tear down her uncle's house if they lived under the same roof?
Chu Zhao could kill decisively in other places, but in front of A Xi, he could only -
"Ah Xi——" Chu Zhao looked angry and irritated, and he looked so cute like a little puppy wagging its tail to beg for mercy.
Gu Xi covered her face. There was too much drama and it was unbearable to watch.
Lin Xiaoxuan: Ugh…
He is a modern man and a veteran in the entertainment industry, but he has never been more servile than an ancient high school student. He didn't expect that his idol, Sister Xi, actually likes such a servile man!
Despise it!
The little puppy who is 185cm tall: If you don’t let me live with you, I will act like a spoiled child!
Gu Xi could only treat everyone equally and said helplessly:
"Okay, okay, you can stay here if you want, but there is one thing: you two must not quarrel, let alone fight. Whoever starts a fight will be kicked out of the house!"
Chu Zhao and Lin Xiaoxuan glared at each other and turned away at the same time, secretly thinking about how to drive the other out.
"Uncle, cousin, the human trafficker has been brought here." Zhu Dabing came to the main hall to report, easing the awkwardness in the room.
After Gu Xi left in the morning, Lin Xiaoxuan ordered Zhu Dadan to find a human trafficker. The huge Zhenxibo Mansion had to be managed by someone.
Gu Xi only brought three followers, which was not enough, and they would have to return to the army in the future.
Hu Guilin was sent by Lin Xiaoxuan to purchase some supplies and find some craftsmen to renovate the mansion.
Lin Xiaoxuan often watches costume dramas, and according to the decoration of the ancient mansions in Hengdian Film and Television City, he is sure of it.
"Cousin, let's go and have a look together. We have to pick out some people we like." Lin Xiaoxuan said to Gu Xi.
He used to call her Sister Xi, and now he calls her Cousin, and he can switch between them with ease.
"Okay." Gu Xi nodded.
"I'm going too!" Chu Zhao followed closely behind Gu Xi.
In the front yard, several human traffickers brought over hundreds of men and women, which gave Gu Xi a headache.
She has no experience in interviews.
"Cousin, why don't you come and I'll just watch from the side."
Lin Xiaoxuan was a scout and had done a lot of interviewing for extras, so he was naturally adept at it.
Gu Xi was very confident in him. Yiyuan Film and Television Company was such a large group with countless artists and various staff members, and he could handle it all. It would be a piece of cake for him to manage the mansion for her!
Seeing Lin Xiaoxuan picking and choosing among the crowd and asking a few questions from time to time, Chu Zhao sat under the shade of a tree, eating some snacks and said:
"Your cousin has great potential to be a butler, and his age is suitable. He's quite old, right?"
Gu Xi: “…”
When men start to be treacherous, women have no chance to show their true colors.
"Not bad, about 27 or 28 years old." Gu Xi said.
In modern times, after graduating from college and working for three to five years, you will be about this age. Gu Xi is also twenty-three years old in modern times.
"Oh, you're really old." Chu Zhao said sarcastically.
Gu Xi spat out a mouthful of tea, "Is twenty-seven or twenty-eight old?"
Chu Zhao said: "He is more than ten years older than us, isn't he old? How old is his child?"
Gu Xi shook his head and said, "He is not married yet, a single bachelor."
"What does a diamond bachelor mean?" Chu Zhao always asks questions when he has doubts.
Gu Xi explained: "It means a single man with a successful career."
Chu Zhao threw a potato chip into his mouth, chewing it while saying:
"First get married, then start a career. He's so old, and he's still not married. How can that be considered a success? By the way, what does he do?"
Gu Xi thought for a moment and said:
"He's a businessman, I guess. He's in the far south, and he has many celebrities under him. Well, he has many famous actors, household names."
Chu Zhao said disdainfully, "The owner of a theatre troupe? No wonder he dresses like an actor."
Xizi Lin: If you are jealous, then be jealous. Why are you making personal attacks? You little brat, you have no manners! This is called handsome and unrestrained, suave and charming!
Gu Xi: Huh? The owner of the opera troupe? There doesn’t seem to be anything wrong.
While Lin Xiaoxuan was busy selecting servants for the Bo Mansion, the two of them were leisurely eating snacks, drinking beverages and chatting.
"Cousin, I've checked and found thirty people who are suitable. They will be kept for now. However, they can only do some kitchen and cleaning work. They are not suitable to be guards." Lin Xiaoxuan walked under the shade of the tree and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
Hey, it was agreed that when he arrived in the capital, he would use the money given by Gu Xi to eat, drink, and have fun everywhere, squandering everything?
He was drafted into the army before he even set foot on the teahouses, taverns, brothels or prostitutes of ancient times.
It’s a life full of worries!
Gu Xi handed over a popsicle and said:
"Thank you for your hard work, cousin. Just take care of the arrangements. There is no rush for guards. We can slowly look for them later. They have to be skilled."
Lin Xiaoxuan reached out to take it, but suddenly a hand appeared out of nowhere and snatched the popsicle away.
"Oh, Axi, I'm hot too."
"childish!"
Gu Xi rolled his eyes and took out another popsicle for Lin Xiaoxuan.
Lin Xiaoxuan: This kid really deserves a beating. He doesn’t look like a general at all. If he could beat him, he would have beaten him a long time ago!
