Chapter 396: Rejected
[Why do I feel like Youzi did it on purpose!]
[Did she notice that Director Jin is afraid! So she deliberately asked him to touch it!]
[But still... I kind of want to see hubby scared of touching the tiger!]
[I really like this kind of Director Jin! Clearly afraid but not wanting to show weakness in front of his wife!]
[Touch it!]
[Touch it!]
...
In the end, the entire screen was filled with "Touch it."
Jinshu probably never dreamed that his fans would have such high expectations of him.
"Should I... touch it too?"
Cheng Shujin’s heart skipped a beat, his peripheral vision glancing at the camera nearby.
What to do?
Should he touch it or not?
"It’s okay, Teacher Jinshu, just give it a little touch, Mimi can get to know your scent."
"Brother Jinshu, don’t worry, look, Mimi is very obedient!"
Su Jinxiao chimed in, demonstrating by petting a few times, "See, nothing happened, the fur feels super soft, it’s like a paradise for cat lovers!"
Mimi let out a gentle purr, but still restrained itself from moving away.
Cheng Shujin swallowed hard and glanced down at Mimi. The needle-like pupils made his skin crawl.
For some reason, he always felt that its gaze was terrifying, like he was just food in its eyes!
(If Mimi could speak: Sorry, I’m picky about food, and I dislike your type.)
[Hahaha, I bet a dollar that Director Jin doesn’t dare to touch it!]
[Then I’ll bet fifty cents, Director Jin will definitely touch it for the sake of face!]
[I’m dying of laughter, Director Jin is surely cursing inside, cursing while still having to touch.]
[Am I the only one who thinks it’s unnecessary? If Mr. Jin doesn’t want to touch it, he shouldn’t have to, but this Youzi insists he must!]
[Right, I don’t like it either, what if something happens, who takes responsibility!]
[I can guarantee, nothing will happen, our Mimi is super obedient!]
[If you don’t want to touch it, just say so, don’t pretend you’re not afraid, it’s normal for people to fear tigers, nothing to be ashamed of! It’s your own choice to pretend you’re not scared, who can you blame?]
[Hahaha, the commenter above said what’s in my heart, can’t you admit it without pretending?]
[Isn’t this an instant slap in the face? If you honestly said you’re afraid, don’t want to touch, my Youbao would definitely not force you!]
"Alright, I’ll give it a try."
After much mental preparation, Cheng Shujin ultimately gave in to his pride.
He absolutely couldn’t back down in front of the audience!
Especially since Su Jinxiao already touched it, should he admit defeat?
Absolutely not!
He nodded, cautiously raising his hand and reaching out.
[His hand is shaking...]
[Don’t be afraid, hubby!]
[If you don’t want to touch it, I’ll do it for you!]
[Don’t talk nonsense, you all stand there talking big, when it’s your turn to touch, let’s see if you dare!]
[Exactly, fear is just human nature!]
[Can’t you understand human words? If you’re scared just say it, if you don’t who knows? Were they holding a knife to make him touch it?]
[No need to pretend!]
[Pfft... what’s happening? Missed the touch?]
[Exactly, my Mimi doesn’t even want to be touched by him!]
[Isn’t this too embarrassing! Why do I feel Mimi deliberately doesn’t want him to touch it?]
...
Cheng Shujin, after so much mental preparation, reached out only for Mimi to give a low growl, turn around, and dodge, directly circling to the other side of Chi Youyou, eyes filled with disdain.
[That’s a look of disdain, right?]
[Sister, you didn’t see wrong, I saw it too!]
[Are you sure it’s not a person acting, or high-tech synthesis?]
[That look of disdain was absolutely hilarious!]
...
"What’s wrong with Mimi?"
Su Jinxiao was also slightly stunned, holding back laughter.
Chi Youyou’s mouth under the mask curved into a smile, she shook her head, "I don’t know either. Mimi’s mood changes daily, hard to predict. Maybe there’s something about Teacher Jinshu it doesn’t like?"
"I don’t have any strange smell on me!"
Cheng Shujin, after so much mental preparation, was completely ready to risk it all, yet the tiger gave him the cold shoulder, clearly not wanting him to touch.
His self-esteem felt defeated, he remarked while raising his hand to sniff himself, the perfume wasn’t even strong, it shouldn’t be...
Chi Youyou saw his little expression and chuckled lightly.
You definitely can’t smell yourself, but others can, all you smell like is money!
"Try again later, we have all day for filming!"
Su Jinxiao quickly interjected to avoid awkwardness, "Let’s go check the vegetables we planted last time!"
Originally wanting to try again, Cheng Shujin found Mimi dodging him like the plague!
He gritted his teeth and had to follow Su Jinxiao’s lead, "Sure, I also want to see how the irrigation system is, if it’s good, I want one."
[Haha, perfect topic change!]
[I told you, you can finally let me go now, right!]
[Financial backer = Get-out-of-jail-free card!]
[This move is great, even gave the sponsor a big free ad!]
...
"Good girl~"
Chi Youyou watched Cheng Shujin’s almost fleeing back, her smile widened under the mask, unseen by anyone.
Except Song Shiyu.
Song Shiyu, sitting in his office, was simultaneously in an online video meeting and watching the farm’s live show.
Seeing this, the corners of his mouth lifted unexpectedly.
The little girl’s sense of revenge has always been strong, definitely the type to repay all grudges!
When Jiang An informed him that the Cheng Family wanted to buy her for two million, he knew the second branch of the Cheng Family had truly crossed her.
But...
If the little girl goes to M Country, given the current situation, it will definitely not be peaceful there...
The few people on the other side of the video meeting were all confused.
What’s going on?
Did the boss just smile?
Really? Was it my illusion!
"How’s our business doing in M Country recently?"
Song Shiyu suddenly asked, making the puzzled crowd momentarily forget to respond.
He frowned, "Are you thinking that just because my focus is mostly domestic recently, I won’t inquire about overseas projects?"
"No no! Everything in M Country is proceeding as planned, quarterly profits are steadily rising."
"Yes, I also went to M Country last month, and the Huaxia Chamber of Commerce even awarded us a Business Star award."
"If there’s any issue, it’s the friction within the chamber due to the Cheng Family, but it doesn’t affect us much."
"The director of the Huaxia Chamber of Commerce is the old master of the Cheng Family, and the current acting director is the eldest son of the Cheng Family?"
"Yes, sir."
Song Shiyu nodded, "Looks like I’ll have to make a trip to M Country and personally meet the chamber."
