Chapter 504: Chapter 504: Assisting (2)_1

He could already foresee that if he reached out to hold Situ Xin’s hand at this moment, the two Old Madams would definitely come charging over, rudely separate them, and then, he would be labeled as a dangerous person from then on.

Situ Xin walked side by side with Xiao Muli at the front, followed closely by Old Madam Situ and the rest, who followed them into the site.

The manager in charge of the Xiao Family’s site had received a call from the higher-ups the day before, informing him that someone would visit the site today. So, he had arrived at the site early to wait for the visitors.

After receiving the call, the manager began muttering to himself. It turned out that this site was reserved for someone. He had been worried when he saw other sites being rented out while theirs remained quiet, not knowing if there was something wrong with their site.

"Family Head," received the news that the visitors had arrived, the manager hurried over to receive them. But he did not expect to see the current Family Head of the Xiao Family.

To say that the manager had never seen Xiao Muli was true, but he had seen his photos. In fact, employees of the various branches knew of Xiao Muli and were aware of his identity, thanks to the rules of the Xiao’s.

The Xiao Family was vast, with industries all over the world, and a former Family Head once visited a branch in another country without prior notice. The employees of that branch, who only recognized their senior managers, did not recognize the Family Head of the Xiao’s and even refused him entry to the branch. The incident was a big shock to that Family Head, who then came up with a solution. From then on, whenever a new Family Head took office, their photograph would be shown to every employee of the branches. It was imperative that every employee recognized the current Family Head, knowing who they were serving and who was providing for them.

"Family Head, what brings you here?" the manager, after staring at Xiao Muli for quite a while, finally found his voice and asked.

"I am accompanying someone to check out the site," Xiao Muli said, his facial expression much softer than before because he had Situ Xin by his side, so he didn’t freeze the manager to the point of shivering.

"Do you need me to explain anything?" the manager thought, since the Family Head had personally accompanied the visitor, their identity mustn’t be simple.

"No need, I will just take a look around myself," Situ Xin said, with her eyes already observing the surroundings.

Accompanied by Xiao Muli, Situ Xin looked around the site. The basic layout was good, and many areas were convenient for Situ Xin to set up. She was very satisfied, "Let’s settle on this place, Auntie can cancel the other reservations," Situ Xin decided firmly.

"Alright, I’ll cancel the reservations for the other places right away," Lu Juan said gleefully, picking up the phone to make the call.

Situ Xin turned to Xiao Muli, "Brother Muli, I have decided on this place. As for the specifics of the site’s price, discuss it with Auntie."

Xiao Muli, having heard Situ Xin’s words, wanted to say that their relationship didn’t need negotiations over the price of the site. However, before he could say anything, Situ Xin cut him off, "Brother Muli, no matter our relationship, we should still be clear about business matters, especially since the site isn’t your personal property, but belongs to Xiao Enterprise. I don’t want, because of me, for you to be talked about by others in the Xiao Family. And besides, I am not lacking this money," Situ Xin said and stuck her tongue out at Xiao Muli.

Xiao Muli looked at Situ Xin’s cute action of sticking out her tongue and couldn’t resist. He reached out to ruffle her hair, saying with adoration, "Xiao Xin, let’s do as you say. However, when it comes to decorating the site, leave it to me. Hey, don’t rush to refuse—I know Aunt Lu is unfamiliar with BL and hasn’t found a specialized decoration company yet. Plus, I won’t be decorating for you for free; you’ll need to pay for the labor."

With Xiao Muli having said that, Situ Xin had no reason to refuse anymore. Besides, rejecting it now would just seem pretentious, "Alright, then I’ll leave this task to you. I will give you the blueprints later. Brother Muli, you better prepare yourself for a reckoning if the decoration doesn’t meet my expectations," she warned playfully.

"Okay, okay. If it doesn’t meet your expectations, I’ll have them work overnight to make it right," Xiao Muli replied with an even bigger smile in his eyes.

"Look at that kid Muli, he only softens his expression a bit when he’s with our Baby," Old Madam Loo noted the interaction between Situ Xin and Xiao Muli.

"Yes, Muli really does treat our Baby as if she were his own sister," Old Madam Situ said nonchalantly.

If Xiao Muli and Yu Qihao heard what Old Madam Situ said, one could only imagine what their expressions would be. Treating Situ Xin as a sister? That would just not be possible.

Lu Juan, returning from her phone call, happened to catch the last few sentences, "Baby, what account are you planning to settle with Muli?"

"Oh, Brother Muli said he would take care of decorating our site. I’ve given him the blueprints. I told him, if it doesn’t meet my standards, I’ll hold him accountable," Situ Xin explained to Lu Juan with a smile.

"Muli is getting someone to decorate for us? That’s really great, I had contacted several well-known decoration companies in BL, but they all made excuses about being too busy and rejected us. I was even thinking I’d have to settle for some lesser-known decoration companies. Now that we have Xiao’s decoration company to help, I can rest easy," Lu Juan expressed, who, unlike Situ Xin’s lack of familiarity with the Xiao’s industries, clearly understood them thanks to the previous training as Family Head by the Lu Family—thus she was well-informed about the information on other aristocratic families.

Once the site was confirmed, Lu Juan and Yu Shiyin started to get busy. They needed to find time to check the progress of the work at the site. Fortunately, with the face of Xiao Muli, the current Family Head of Xiao’s, the workers did not slack in the slightest, and the progress of the project was actually much faster than normal.
