Was it because Huo Shiqian was too reliable that all the people around him seemed so unreliable?
Xia Chuyi couldn’t help but wonder.
"Oh, right, let me introduce myself, my name is Guo Jiacheng!" The charcoal enthusiastically said, "I have a life-and-death friendship with Huo Shiqian! His woman is, in a sense, my..."
"Commander!" Guo Jiacheng’s driver comrade called out high-pitched, not minding the insubordination as he lunged forward, attempting to cover Guo Jiacheng’s mouth.
But Guo Jiacheng responded with a reflexive over-the-shoulder throw, slamming the driver hard onto the ground.
"Little brat, trying to ambush me?"
After this interruption, Guo Jiacheng suddenly remembered the words he was about to blurt out.
"Ouch!" Guo Jiacheng smacked his head, saying, "I almost said the wrong thing!"
"But even if I really said something wrong, it doesn’t matter, it’s a good chance to have a fight with Huo Shiqian."
The driver cried, his face streaming with tears—Do you know what a life-and-death friendship is?
It’s where his commander’s life is always "passing" in the hands of Commander Huo Shiqian because Commander Guo will never win against Commander Huo.
Standing by, Xia Chuyi didn’t know what to say, truly at a loss for words.
"By the way, sister-in-law, are you looking for something around here?" Despite Guo Jiacheng’s seemingly unreliable demeanor, his observational skills were sharp. He skipped the self-introduction and directly asked.
"If you’re looking for something, tell me, I’ll help you find it—I know this area well!" Guo Jiacheng said, pounding his chest with vigor.
Xia Chuyi’s mouth twitched.
Watching Guo Jiacheng’s action, she was genuinely afraid this piece of charcoal would pat himself into ash.
Since Guo Jiacheng was Huo Shiqian’s "friend"? "Rival"?
In any case, someone Huo Shiqian owed a favor to who was called over, Chuyi was not the least bit courteous and directly said, "I’m looking for a karaoke lounge—’Red Red Red.’"
Just a moment ago, Guo Jiacheng was pounding his chest with confidence, giving assurances. Now, his expression instantly stiffened.
"Cough cough cough, karaoke lounge..." Guo Jiacheng said, "I don’t go to such places often."
"Cough cough cough, Xiao Zhen, you tell her, where is it?"
Forced to take over the hot potato tossed by his superior, driver Xiao Zhen: The commander doesn’t go, so why would he?
