Chapter 225: Paving the Way for Xia Mo
Oh?
Upon seeing the message about Song Xiaoya, Chu Tian was shocked.
Song Xiaoya is gone? I have to go!
He was perplexed by the sudden departure of Song Xiaoya. He wondered why she had left him so abruptly.
Could it be that the country no longer sees us as a threat? Have they stopped surveilling us? Chu Tian pondered. The news of her departure came as a surprise as if the country had unexpectedly deemed them safe and lifted the surveillance.
Quickly gathering his thoughts, Chu Tian replied, “Oh, baby, why did you suddenly leave? You said everything was taken care of, but I haven’t had enough of you. What if I miss you?”
Song Xiaoya: “Don’t worry. In the future, there will be many opportunities. The agency is currently facing a shortage of agents at my level, so they need to transfer me to perform a mission. After a while, I will come back.”
Huh?
Chu Tian’s mouth twitched involuntarily.
I’ll go!
Chu Tian speechlessly replied, “You… return?”
Song Xiaoya: “Are you happy, baby?”
Chu Tian: “Uh… farewell.”
After sending this message, Chu Tian put away his phone and said, “Forget it. Our neighbor has gone on a trip. Let’s find a replacement from the app.”
Li Sisi couldn’t help smiling. “Your tone is so disappointed. When did you hook up?”
“No.” Chu Tian said, “I’m hooking up with her. Didn’t she often go to our bar? Last time I chatted with her, I added a friend.”
“Who is it?” Bai Xiaochun and Li Niannian said innocently, “What kind of neighbor are we facing?”
Although Song Xiaoya followed Chu Tian every day because she was well-hidden, Bai Xiaochun and Li Niannian didn’t even know Song Xiaoya. They hadn’t even met her yet.
“A beautiful woman.” Li Sisi said, “She has a good temperament. I’ve talked to her twice, but you probably haven’t officially met her. You often go to our bar. She’s a beautiful writer, and almost every day, she looks for inspiration in our bar.”
A beautiful writer?
When she heard Li Sisi say this, Xia Mo smiled and said nothing.
Li Sisi didn’t know, but Xia Mo knew because Chu Tian had already told her that a beauty writer was actually an agent. She was in charge of secretly protecting Chu Tian in Haicheng, and her identity as a writer was just a disguise.
“Then I’ll look for a replacement online.” Xia Mo took out her phone and said, “Coincidentally, I have this software that I downloaded last time.”
……
It’s half past ten at night!
In Xia Mo’s rented room, after Xia Mo and Chu Tian entered, she poured two cups of water and handed one to Chu Tian. She asked, “It’s late at night. Why didn’t you go to bed with your sweetheart? Why did you come here?”
“Heh…” Chu Tian gave a smile and said, “Big sister, you also know about big night ah, then why do you think I came here with you?”
“How dare you!” Xia Mo glared at him and smiled. “Be honest with me. I have handcuffs here. If you’re not honest, I’ll handcuff you in the living room and let you sleep on the floor for the night.”
Chu Tian chuckled and said, “Sister, actually, you really like the police profession, right?”
Xia Mo took a deep breath and nodded. “It’s alright. The main thing is my parents were policemen when I was young. I grew up in such an environment. I really like the my profession, especially after I saw that I could help some people and give them justice. I felt that my life was quite meaningful.”
Chu Tian nodded and said, “I’m here to make a milk tea shop to join, so, sister, your Chief Zhang, his son and daughter-in-law are not policemen. They are just two people who do small business. They are in Haicheng. I want his son to join and get a free milk tea shop in the city.”
Huh?
Hearing Chu Tian’s words, Xia Mo was stunned. She narrowed her eyes and said, “What do you mean by bribing our Chief?”
“No.” Chu Tian shook his head and said, “It’s normal to join. In any case, Haicheng must have a franchise store. Now that Haicheng doesn’t have a franchise store, it’s good enough. Let them get one.”
“Besides, it’s part of the joining contract, and I’m accepting their joining fee. I’m not giving them any discounts. How can that be considered a bribe?”
“Alright!” Xia Mo smiled. “I don’t know what you’re really thinking, do I?”
Although Chu Tian had said that, Xia Mo knew his true purpose. What was it about finding a franchisee in Haicheng? To put it bluntly, it was just for her.
The contract for White Milk Tea was finally negotiated by the two of them, so Xia Mo knew very well whether she could make money and how much money she could make.
The success of the franchise store relied on the franchisee.
Haicheng didn’t lack rich people. They wanted to join in the future. Besides, it wouldn’t be easy for them to join in the future.
Just the quota of franchise stores was very precious.
By giving Chief Zhang’s son such a spot, Chu Tian was indirectly offering a favor to Xia Mo.
Seeing his son and daughter-in-law prospering and having better days, how could Chief Zhang not remember Xia Mo’s kindness? In the future, when there were opportunities or benefits to be gained, wouldn’t he give her preferential treatment?
Chu Tian smiled and said, “Sis, you don’t understand. Regardless, I’ve made up my mind. Besides, I genuinely believe that as the son of the police chief, he must possess good character and qualities.”
“As the saying goes, a tiger doesn’t beget a dog. Chief Zhang is fair and honest, so his son must be a good person with admirable character and qualities.”
“I just want him to join, and I won’t shortchange them. If they can’t afford the 20 million joining fee, that’s okay. They can make it up once they start earning money.”
“Can you count it as a bribe? He’s just an ordinary franchisee. I’m looking for a franchisee.”
Seeing Chu Tian acting like this, Xia Mo pursed her lips into a smile. She stared into his eyes and said, “Chu Tian, you really don’t have to do this. Actually, I know that you’ve always loved me, but I really don’t need this. I’m fine now.”
“Sister, you also love me.” Chu Tian smiled and said, “In any case, I’ve already thought it through. If you don’t tell your chief, I’ll look for him tomorrow. I’ll definitely give his son a spot in this franchise store.”
