Suppressing the Protagonist in the Start to Seize the Heroine

Chapter 73: Afraid of Living Alone!

The unexpected arrival of Chen Lin caught Su Lin off guard, but he soon had other things on his mind.

Arriving at Xia Shiyu's office, Su Lin found her intently learning how to use a Word document on the computer, completely oblivious to his presence.

However, as soon as Su Lin approached her, Xia Shiyu turned around, Su Lin, you're here.

Su Lin touched his nose and said, Xiaoyu, your ability to recognize people by their scent is improving.

Hehe, what scent? It's just your smell. Is Xiaowan coming? Xia Shiyu glanced towards the door.

Su Lin closed the door and sat next to her, Xiaowan is busy today and won't be coming.

Oh? What could be more important than the company?

Her dad took her to visit relatives.

Su Lin then playfully tapped Xia Shiyu's head, Let's not talk about her. Are you learning how to use a computer?

Yes~!! I bought a computer as you suggested. Im just not good at using it yet, so Im practicing here at the company.

Su Lin stroked Xia Shiyu's hair, Do you want me to teach you?

Do you know how to use it?

Su Lin nodded. Although he wasn't an expert, his knowledge was more than enough to teach Xia Shiyu. He lifted her onto his lap, her cheeks blushing. Let me show you how to use it.

Okay~!! Xia Shiyu smiled sweetly.

She had been restraining herself for a long time, and now, with Xiaowan absent, she was excited to spend some alone time with Su Lin.

Hehe... I'll teach you about spreadsheets.

Xia Shiyu quickly grasped the basic functions of spreadsheets as Su Lin explained and demonstrated.

She admired, Su Lin, this spreadsheet is amazing. It includes all the calculation methods. Its a pity that we barely have computer classes at school, and when we do, they just teach us typing.

Su Lin nodded, The computers in schools are outdated. They should be thankful they can still be used for typing.

Hehe, but this LCD computer looks so much better. It doesn't have that bulky look.

Computers will become even better-looking in the future. This one is still quite ugly.

From his perspective, having seen various computers on Earth, the one before them indeed looked outdated.

Xiaoyu, I can only teach you the basics. The rest you'll have to learn yourself.

Xia Shiyu looked up at Su Lin, You've already taught me enough. I borrowed some accounting books from Sister Xiaojuan and plan to study them in my spare time.

Su Lin gave her a thumbs up, I can't help you with that. It's up to you to work hard.

Hehe, I will.

After teaching her about spreadsheets, Su Lins gaze sharpened, Xiaoyu, its been so long, and you still havent said youd come to stay with me. Living alone in that big villa is kind of scary.

Pfft~!! Su Lin, You? Afraid?

Cough cough, of course. Such a big villa, all empty, feels quite lonely. Its just waiting for a certain lady of the house. Su Lins hands began to wander.

Hehe, are you waiting for Xiaowan~!

Wow, someone dares to tease me now. Watch out for my family discipline.

No Su Lin, Chen Yang and the others could come in at any moment. Xia Shiyu looked nervously towards the door.

Dont worry. Yangzi is very discreet. Even if the sky falls, he wont come in.

Xia Shiyu rolled her eyes at Su Lin, What if he goes to school and spreads rumors?

Dont worry. Unless I say so, he wouldnt utter a word even if the police asked him.

I Mmm!!!

Their playful fight continued until it was almost lunchtime, when Su Lin finally let her go, and they walked out of the office together.

By then, Chen Lin was no longer in the supermarket, leaving only Chen Yang watching the construction site.

Seeing Su Lin and Xia Shiyu emerge from the back office, Chen Yang wasnt surprised. Xia Shiyus lips were as red and full as if she had just applied lipstick. Chen Yang might not have eaten pork, but he had seen pigs run. He knew what was going on.

Su Lin, unfazed by Chen Yangs teasing gaze, helped Xia Shiyu straighten her slightly wrinkled clothes. Once everything was in order, he turned to Chen Yang, Yangzi, wheres your sister? I didnt see her.

Lin Bro, I sent my sister home. There are a lot of things to do at home, and now that Im not there, she has to take care of them, Chen Yang explained.

Su Lin nodded, Thats too bad. I was thinking of inviting her for lunch with us.

No need, Lin Bro.

Oh, Chen Yang, your sister was here? Xia Shiyu exclaimed in surprise.

Yes, she came to bring plum juice.

Why didnt you invite her for lunch? Ive heard you talk about your sister many times and have always wanted to meet her.

Chen Yang thought about the uncomfortable meeting between Chen Lin and Su Lin that morning and forced a smile, Xiao Lin is about to take her middle school exams. Its better for her to focus on her studies.

He then looked at Su Lin, Lin Bro, about this morning

Su Lin patted Chen Yangs shoulder, Your sister is only fifteen. Dont blame her.

Su Lin was generally kind to others, except in his stance against Ye Feng. In business, he was clear about separating personal and professional matters. This mornings incident was not something Chen Yang should have had to cover.

Xia Shiyu, curious, Su Lin, what happened this morning?

Hehe, just a little episode. Nothing major. Yangzis sister is quite cute. She even made us plum juice, right, Yangzi?

Yep!

By the way, Xiaoyu, Yangzi has been buying water for the workers lately. Later, you should settle his expenses and keep a record. He shouldnt have to pay out of his own pocket, Su Lin said.

Xia Shiyu nodded, Chen Yang, come to my office this afternoon to settle the money.

Chen Yang nodded, knowing Su Lins word was final.

The construction will be finished in a few days, and then we need to stock up. Whether we succeed depends on this upcoming May Day.

Lin Bro, dont worry. The supermarkets opening will definitely be successful.

Right, you should go and distribute flyers soon, and contact the Zhongjiang TV station for some advertising.

Chen Yang was puzzled, Advertising for our supermarket?

Yes. Do it like those mobile phone stores. You understand.

Got it.

Make plenty of flyers, enough for every person in Zhongjiang City. Dont worry about the cost. If money can solve it, its not a problem. Su Lin declared with a wave of his hand.

Chen Yang was inspired by Su Lins enthusiasm. He believed this approach would make the supermarket a hit.

He had put so much effort into the supermarket, and though Su Lin was the boss, he only occasionally checked on the construction progress and never interfered in other matters.

Alright, Yangzi, since your sister is not here, I wont invite you for lunch. Xiaoyu and I are going to eat now. You finish up and eat soon too.

Lin Bro, Ill be done soon and will eat after.

Alright~!!
