Chapter 913 -913: Don’t Fall Out Too Badly With the Bai Family
While Shen Chi was eating breakfast, the big yellow cat stealthily made its way to his feet.
It lay down quietly next to Shen Chi’s leather shoes, not causing any trouble, very well-behaved. Sometimes, it would raise its head and look at Shen Chi with understanding and obedience.
Occasionally, Shen Chi would glance down at it, and whenever he saw it, he would think of Xu Chaomu, even though the yellow cat bore no substantial resemblance to Xu Chaomu.
After breakfast, the big yellow cat continued to cling to Shen Chi, unwilling to leave.
Shen Chi sat on the sofa reading the newspaper, and the big yellow cat jumped onto the couch and lay down beside him.
Shen Chi reached out to touch its soft and clean fur, and the cat didn’t get angry; it was very well-behaved, allowing Shen Chi to pet it.
“Mr. Shen, this cat seems to really like you,” a servant said with a smile as she came to serve tea.
“Mmm,” Shen Chi responded with a slight curve of his lips, continuing to pet it.
It wasn’t long before Ji Shengxuan returned. As he entered the door, he saw Ahuang squinting with pleasure, allowing Shen Chi to stroke him.
Ahuang was very cute, and though chubby, he was very lovable to look at.
Seeing it like this, Ji Shengxuan joked, “It turns out Ahuang also likes handsome men.”
Shen Chi laughed as well, “Are you trying to say I am quite charming?”
“No, I am saying, even male cats like you.”
“…” Shen Chi twitched the corner of his mouth and gave him a cold glare.
Ji Shengxuan laughed and walked over to the sofa.
When Ahuang saw Ji Shengxuan return, he meowed twice and then jumped down from the sofa, attempting to leap into Ji Shengxuan’s arms.
“This cat, he’s very attached to you,” Shen Chi commented.
“Yeah, I spoil him too much. After so many years, he’s gotten used to it,” Ji Shengxuan said as he picked up the big yellow cat from the floor.
The big yellow cat settled into a comfortable position in Ji Shengxuan’s embrace.
The big yellow cat was lazy, continuously squinting while dozing off.
Shen Chi felt Ji Shengxuan could be quite patient and gentle at times, at least right now he didn’t resemble Ji Shengxuan in the business world who was strategic and ruthless—more like a down-to-earth man.
Ji Shengxuan petted its fur, and Ahuang didn’t move at all, thoroughly enjoying it.
Carrying the cat, Ji Shengxuan sat down on the sofa across from Shen Chi and said to a servant at the side, “Go upstairs and bring down the folder and notebook from the left side of my bookshelf.”
“Yes, young master,” the servant replied.
The young servant went upstairs, and Ji Shengxuan played with Ahuang for a while longer.
“Ji Shengxuan, you like cats so much, you must like kids as well, right?” Shen Chi asked indifferently.
“Cats and children, can they be the same?”
“In some aspects, they can be the same,” Shen Chi asserted.
“What about you? Do you like children?” Ji Shengxuan didn’t look up, continuing to tease Ahuang in his arms.
Tickled by him, Ahuang stretched out a small paw to push against Ji Shengxuan’s hand.
“I do,” Shen Chi replied.
Ji Shengxuan lifted his deep, obsidian-like eyes, resting his gaze on Shen Chi’s face for several seconds.
After a moment, Ji Shengxuan smiled and said, “It’s inappropriate for two men to discuss this topic. Let’s talk about the business dealings in Dong Quan Commercial Street instead.”
Just then, the servant had brought down Ji Shengxuan’s documents and notebook.
Shen Chi also handed his car keys to the servant, saying, “Go get my laptop from my car.”
“Okay.”
“Mr. Shen, are you sure you’re awake? If possible, shall we start now?” Ji Shengxuan asked.
“What do you think?” Shen Chi looked at him leisurely.
No matter how sleepy or tired he was, when it came to important work, Shen Chi would always perk up.
Ji Shengxuan also had the servant take Ahuang out to play and casually handed Shen Chi several important photocopied documents.
“Alright, let’s start with the basic situation of this commercial street, as well as some basic information about our competitors,” Ji Shengxuan said as he looked at the documents.
Ji Shengxuan rarely sought to cooperate with Shen Chi on a project, in his view, uniting two strong parties would undoubtedly lead to success and profits.
Shen Chi nodded and opened the materials provided by Ji Shengxuan.
The contents of the document were very detailed, showing that Ji Shengxuan had put a lot of thought into it.
For this commercial street project, Shen Chi had also engaged Xiao Mo for a part of it, the biggest challenge wasn’t the competitors but the demolition of residential housing on the street, communication with the residents, and the huge capital turnover.
The two sat on the couch, sipping coffee while discussing the collaboration.
The sun emerged from the clouds, its rays shining down on the earth, warming the ground slightly, not as cold as the night before.
When Shen Chi and Ji Shengxuan talked business, their faces were both serious and earnest.
Shen Chi was very professional, and so was Ji Shengxuan, both on an equal footing, making their collaboration go smoothly.
“Ji Shengxuan, dealing with the government requires certain skills and negotiation capabilities, and the planning of this commercial street will definitely involve the government,” said Shen Chi. “In your opinion, should you take care of this, or shall I?”
“Isn’t Xiao Mo still in Los Angeles? I’ll handle this aspect,” Ji Shengxuan said. “By the way, do you still have contact with the Bai Family?”
“There’s still business interaction,” Shen Chi replied indifferently.
“It really is a pity not to make use of such a major financial conglomerate like the Bai Family,” Ji Shengxuan said with a smile.
“What are you trying to say?” Shen Chi frowned and looked up.
“Nothing much,” Ji Shengxuan said with a smile. “But I heard that the Bai Family’s young Miss will be engaged in a few days?”
“I’m not going.”
“You may not go, but you should send a gift,” Ji Shengxuan said. “It’s been five years. Don’t get too estranged from the Bai Family.”
Shen Chi quirked a lip: “You don’t need to lecture me.”
“Of course, Mr. Shen doesn’t need me to say much,” Ji Shengxuan glanced at the wristwatch on his hand, “It’s twelve o’clock. Would you care to stay for lunch? Shall we continue in the afternoon?”

“Sure, I don’t have anywhere else I particularly want to go, so I might as well stay here. Let’s finish discussing the basics of this project today.”
“Okay.”
Ji Shengxuan called the servant. Today, he had specially prepared a large table of food. He rarely ate at home, but having Shen Chi over, eating at home didn’t seem too bad.
Shen Chi walked around Ji Shengxuan’s villa. The environment was quite pleasant, and the infrastructure was excellent.
However, perhaps because Su Weiyang had been away for too many years, Shen Chi didn’t see anything related to Su Weiyang in the villa, except for that chubby yellow cat.
Even the villa didn’t have a photo of Su Weiyang, which Ji Shengxuan probably packed away.
Although Shen Chi had known Ji Shengxuan for many years and their relationship was very good, he knew very little about the matters between Ji Shengxuan and Su Weiyang.
Shen Chi didn’t dwell on it too much; when the right opportunity came, he would talk to Ji Shengxuan about his son’s matters.
“Let’s go eat,” Ji Shengxuan said, leading him to a balcony.
