After inheriting the family business, I was targeted by the inheritance

Chi Zhao is very shy, so in most cases, he can't stand the intentional teasing of others.

Although he occasionally calls himself the master on weekdays, he is basically joking and doesn't take it seriously, but when Shen Xi folded and bit the words and slowly pronounced the title, Chi Zhao's face was full of surprises. The temperature immediately rose.

So almost subconsciously, he stretched out his hand to cover the opponent's mouth, and blurted out: "You can't shout such words!"

Knowing that Chi Zhao would react because of his name, but he didn't expect that the little monster's reaction would be so huge.

Chi Zhao approached him much faster than expected. Although the arc of his eyes had not changed, Shen Xizhe's hand that was originally on the seat had quietly supported Chi Zhao's waist at this moment.

"I don't dislike you." Chi Zhao's mind is a little confused now, but he still tries to explain it to others seriously, "I really don't."

"And I have no other inheritance besides you," he stumbled, "I read those from the script."

He lowered his eyes and took in all the expressions on Chi Zhao's face. Although he knew that it was impossible for the little monster to do such a thing, when Chi Zhao really said these words in a soft tone, Shen Xizhe finally laughed lightly.

Because his mouth was still tightly covered by a hand, Shen Xizhe's laughter seemed a bit vague in the air.

But Chi Zhao didn't dare to let go of his hand rashly at this moment, he was afraid that Shen Xizhe would say something to scare the cat again, so he had to watch people vigilantly and carefully.

Bullying small animals can make people feel an inexplicable sense of guilt.

And bullying Chi Zhao is even more so.

Fortunately, Shen Xizhe's words just now were entirely on a whim. Now that his goal had been achieved, he naturally suppressed all the thoughts in his eyes.

After ensuring that Chi Zhao was completely seated, Shen Xizhe took his hand back, and then lightly clasped the opponent's wrist and then slowly pulled it down.

"I know," Shen Xizhe still had a smile in his initial words, but at the end it completely faded away, "In the future..."

"I won't ask that again."

Although Shen Xizhe thought it would be interesting to tease Chi Zhao once in a while, but seeing the other party's flustered performance because of his own problems, not only did he not feel any joy in his heart, but on the contrary, he also felt a lot of boredom.

The tone of the man's speech was rare and serious. Chi Zhao looked at him suspiciously, and then nodded obediently, "Oh".

Although there was something wrong with the change of Shen Xi's attitude before and after the turn, Chi Zhao saw that the expression on his face had been suppressed again, so he didn't want to carefully figure out the man's changing mood, so he could only ask in a low voice: "What are you going to eat later?" ?”

Shen Xi folded and confiscated the cake before he even ate half of it. Coupled with the trouble just now, Chi Zhao's stomach became hungry again.

Coupled with the fact that this time is right at meal time, and because he was in a hurry to go out in the morning, he didn't bring any snacks with him, so Chi Zhao had no choice but to pin all his hopes on Shen Xizhe.

In fact, Chi's company is surrounded by one of the most prosperous commercial streets in city A. The catering culture there is developing very rapidly, and it is usually the best choice for going out for dinner.

And they also passed several other food streets along the way just now, but Shen Xizhe chose to ignore them all without exception.

Because those few places, although prosperous and interesting, have the same flaw.

That is, there are many people.

In consideration of all aspects of safety, Shen Xizhe rarely chooses to go out.

Even if he had to go out for some reason, he would never stay too long in crowded places.

Although the General Administration of Monsters has never known his whereabouts and made trouble for him in these years, after all, Shen Xizhe does not want to expose himself to them in advance.

It was already a great adventure to accompany Chi Zhao out this time. Although it was a bit like mending the past, Shen Xizhe still took him to a relatively remote street.

By the way, you can also bring someone to meet a friend of yours.

Although Shen Xizhe has lived alone for more than a hundred years, he always knows a few people for some reason.

Unlike Chi Zhao who likes to post with his friends, after all, Shen Xizhe has a special status, so there are only one or two people who can really get along with him until now.

Chi Zhao is very unfamiliar with City A. He basically stays at home these days, and even the only time he went out before was taken by Shen Xizhe.

So since he went out today, he either followed Chi Zhao, or obediently acted as a quiet little tail behind Shen Xizhe's back.

After half a day of experience, his impression of City A is that it is lively.

Both sides of the street are either high-rise buildings or crowded with crowds. Occasionally, you can see the lake under the bridge through the car window, and when the car drives a little further, you can see a large crowd of people again.

Chi Zhao can't say he likes this place, but he can't say he hates it either.

But now, holding Shen Xizhe's hand, he slowly walked across the road to the sidewalk, but he was attracted by the scene in the distance.

When I was on the mountain before, almost every household planted a lot of trees in the yard.

Chi Zhao used to like to climb up trees to try to catch birds, but every time he climbed halfway and was afraid of heights, and then neither went up nor down. In the end, he could only hang his head dejectedly and shake his tail, and was rescued by his brother holding the back of his neck.

Since he went down the mountain, it was the first time he saw such a big banyan tree in the world.

There are not many people coming and going here, and he and Shen Xizhe are the only two people in the whole street.

Coupled with the fact that the banyan tree was gently shaking its branches and leaves with the breeze, Chi Zhao had the illusion that he had returned to the mountain.

He thought this tree was already a particularly magical existence, but as he got closer, he discovered that there was a building of the same color hidden behind the tree.

"What's there?"

Chi Zhao was very relaxed in such an environment, even the tone of the question became much lighter.

His cuffs swayed along with the opponent's movements, Shen Xizhe silently glanced at him, and then said: "Restaurant."

Eh?

In Chi Zhao's perception, restaurants would like to open in a central area with a lot of traffic, but this one in front of him is not only remote, but even the entrance is integrated with the banyan tree.

Doubts appeared on his face one after another, although Chi Zhao hadn't had time to ask, Shen Xizhe had already guessed all the questions in his heart.

"The ideal audience for this restaurant is not humans," he led Chi Zhao to the sidewalk, and said, "So the most inconspicuous place in the eyes of humans is the safest place."

The little monster's mind turned quickly, and almost in the next moment he asked in surprise: "Is he also a monster?"

It's just that just after he finished speaking, he suddenly realized that the rules of the monster bureau have existed for many years, and naturally there are not a few monsters who go down the mountain to practice and stay in the human world.

And regardless of Shen Xizhe's age or status, the people who can get to know him should not be ordinary people.

Chi Zhao thought about this in his heart, but soon became suspicious of another question, "Is he also your friend?"

After a moment of silence, Shen Xizhe still nodded and said: "Yes."

The little monster next to him didn't feel any surprise at his answer, and even nodded his head knowingly afterwards, boasting that it was awesome.

But Shen Xizhe suddenly said: "Why..."

"Did you just say 'also'?"

Blinking his eyes in a daze, Chi Zhao slowed down and recalled, and then opened his mouth to explain: "At first I thought you only had me as a friend."

The tone of the little monster revealed sympathy, and it seemed that he was ready to comfort the other party as soon as he shook his head.

But soon, he added: "But I thought about it later, and I felt that if you only had me as a friend, then you would be too pitiful."

Chi Zhao only felt that Shen Xizhe was more and more different from what he had imagined. Although the other party looked lonely and isolated from the world, he would not only drive himself out, but was also very familiar with the roads in the city.

So now Chi Zhao feels that whether the other party has friends or not, it is a very normal thing in his opinion.

After he said this, he smiled at the man with some embarrassment, but he didn't notice that the latter's expression became thoughtful.

Just like looking at it from a distance, the tree is big and shaped, and when you look up, you can only glimpse the sporadic sky above you through the leaves with difficulty.

Chi Zhao's gaze had been set on the banyan tree from the beginning, but now that it was close, he reached out out of curiosity and lightly touched the trunk in front of him.

The touch in his hand was a bit rough, and the little monster leaned over his face to observe for a while, and then wanted to pick it lightly.

Just as his fingers were bent, Shen Xi folded his wrist and grabbed it from behind.

"Don't move."

The man clasped his hand and pulled him back a little distance. While saying this, he raised his other hand and knocked on the door in front of him.

Such a warning came suddenly. Although Chi Zhao didn't understand, he turned around obediently.

Chi Zhao is very curious, and whenever he encounters strange things, he will chatter and ask non-stop, but now there is only Shen Xizhe by his side, so although he has no other actions at the moment, the question in his mouth is still Jumped out, "Why?"

Before she knew it, she was used to such a little monster, so Shen Xi didn't feel annoyed when she fell down, so she turned her head and planned to go back.

But before he could make a sound, the door in front of the two of them was suddenly opened from the inside, and then there was a warm voice with a smile: "Little friend, the family didn't tell you that you can touch other people's prototypes casually." Is it impolite?"
