Chapter 780: Chapter 776 You Can Pretend You Saw Nothing

"So are you sure you’re staying here from now on?" the old Mr. Xia continued to look at him and said.

"Yes, it’s beneficial for me to stay here. Besides, there’s a shortage of staff, so I can also lend a hand to Yueyue and the others. It’s killing multiple birds with one stone," Xia Yu nodded earnestly.

"Although I don’t know what you are hiding, it must be important. I won’t pry further. Just do your best," the old Mr. Xia said to him solemnly.

The resort area was full of peculiarities, unknown whether it was trust in them, a feeling that they were good at hiding things, or perhaps believing that there was no need to hide. Everything here was different from the outside world.

"I understand, Grandfather." Xia Yu couldn’t reveal it now and could only nod in response.

After chatting for a while, Xia Yu left.

He went to look for Xia Yue and inquired about his future work.

"Brother, regarding work arrangements, you should talk to Manager Zheng. He will assign you tasks. If you find them unreasonable, you can discuss changes. Actually, the work is just that; it’s all about how you manage the time for more practice," Xia Yue told Xia Yu, not very familiar with the job arrangements herself, as she helped out wherever there was a need without a fixed position.

"Alright," Xia Yu nodded, then thought for a moment and said to her, "If Mom and Dad come to you, act as if you haven’t seen them. They might trouble you about my resignation from the company."

"Okay, I got it. I’ll just ignore them. But are you sure they won’t come over?" Xia Yue nodded and looked at Xia Yu with a bit of worry, thinking about their temperaments.

"Grandma and Grandpa are here. They wouldn’t dare to come. Don’t worry about it." Xia Yu knew their personalities well but also knew their weakness; they were indeed afraid of the old Mr. and Mrs. Xia.

"That’s true, I understand," Xia Yue said, convinced and smiling.

"Your birthday is in a month. What gift would you like? I’ll prepare it for you," Xia Yu asked her with a smile.

"I want this dress and hair accessory. Can you find someone to make it for me? I want a full set made of shark gauze; it would be really beautiful," Xia Yue said, immediately taking out her phone to show him.

"Sure, send me the picture, and I’ll get it done for you. Your birthday is also Xixi’s birthday. It’ll be your first time celebrating together. How about we have the birthday party here at the resort? We could liven it up a bit. What do you think?" Xia Yu glanced at the picture, agreed without a second thought, and then considered Xia Xi. Seeing that they got along well on normal days, it really would be nice to celebrate together.

"Yeah, that sounds great, especially since there are a lot of people around here. Ask Xixi what she thinks, and invite her martial arts brothers and sisters to come over too. It would be fun for everyone to play together," Xia Yue was very supportive of the idea.

"Okay, I’ll talk to her. If she agrees, I’ll take care of organizing the birthday party," Xia Yu said.

"Of course, you will. If it were up to me, I wouldn’t bother. It’s too much trouble," Xia Yue said.

"Alright, then. I’ll go ask Xia Xi about it. You should get some rest early too," Xia Yu said, shaking his head at her helplessly.

"Bye-bye," Xia Yue waved at him.

The next day, Wei Se was standing outside Xia Yue’s courtyard early in the morning.

"What are you doing?" asked Yan Mo, who had gotten up early for a morning run and saw Wei Se standing at the gate, puzzled.

"I’m waiting for Xia Yue. She said she would take me to choose a shop today," Wei Se told him.

"She doesn’t get up that early. You could have breakfast first. She should be ready to go by about eight-thirty," Yan Mo reminded her.

"Fine then, I’ll go have breakfast first and wait for her at the Four Seasons Hotel afterward," Wei Se frowned slightly at the time, somewhat displeased, but was perceptive enough to realize that this man was trying to rush her away so she wouldn’t disturb Xia Yue’s rest.

Having said that, she turned and left the doorway of the courtyard.

Only after watching her figure disappear did Yan Mo turn back to the courtyard, close the gate carefully, fearful that she might return.

[You’re really quite attentive.] The System sat on the rocking chair inside the courtyard; it knew what was happening outside. Looking at Yan Mo who came in, it commented with a smile.

Yan Mo remained silent for a while before responding to the System, "You can pretend you didn’t see anything."

After that, he went straight back to his room.
