Chapter 403
Su Jin secretly wanted to see if the Nine-tailed Fox would be able to enchant Situ Jin, because from what he knew about Situ Jin, besides having feelings for Bo Ya, he behaved like a stone in front of the opposite sex. So, he wanted to know if the Nine-tailed Fox’s skills would be able to break his stony heart.
“Well, with a beauty like yours, I’m not surprised that the emperor back then was willing to give up the entire empire for you.” Situ Jin seemed to be complimenting her, but there was an aggressive glint in his eye. Su Jin quickly realized what was going on. To Situ Jin, the Nine-tailed Fox was the bad guy who had caused the country to fall into war and famine, so she was not welcome at all.
Su Jin quickly interjected, “Alright, alright, calm down. By now, you should have realized as a Handbook owner that a lot of the history that we know happened for many other reasons that aren’t the one in our textbooks.”
After hearing Su Jin’s words, the aggressive glint in Situ Jin’s eyes gradually faded. He looked at Su Jin and asked, “You made me come here just to introduce these three heavyweights to me?”
“Well, I thought you guys should at least say hello to each other, because these three are not very used to living normally, so… you know what I mean,” said Su Jin with a big grin.
Situ Jin slapped his forehead and sighed. “I don’t have the time to clean up after their mess all the time either, you know!”
“Just lend us a helping hand? Otherwise, if anything blows up, it’ll be harder to clear up the mess. I’ve got a free pass, but I don’t want to use it all the time to get out of trouble,” Su Jin said to Situ Jin.
Situ Jin paused to think for a while, then asked the three demons, “Do you have any idea of what sort of life you’d like to have?” He decided to ask the three demons for their opinions first, so that he wouldn’t be at a loss in the future.
Bifang said simply, “I’m not actually interested in living like an ordinary human. I’d like to hibernate in a volcano, and Mr. Su can call on me if he needs me.”
“A volcano?” Situ Jin frowned. There were volcanoes in China, but… a smile spread across his face as he turned and said to Su Jin, “Hey, do you still remember your Caucasian servants?”“My Caucasian servants? You mean Murray, Tracy, and the rest?” Of course he hadn’t forgotten them. But he didn’t know why Situ Jin was bringing them up now.
“Yeah, them. They own several small islands, and based on the information I read the last time, some of them have active volcanoes on them. I think that would be a very suitable place for Miss Bifang to hibernate. These are all islands in the middle of the ocean, so even if anything happens, it wouldn’t cause any disturbance to civilization,” explained Situ Jin.
Su Jin’s eyes lit up. He grabbed hold of Bifang, then disappeared in a flash, reappearing in a luxuriously furnished meeting room where a bunch of people were having a discussion.
“Good heavens! How did the two of them get in here? Security! Security! Throw these two out now! You useless things! How could you allow random people to appear inside the meeting room like that? What if they leak our company secrets?!” a Caucasian man started yelling at the top of his voice. But what surprised Su Jin was that the man was speaking in Chinese throughout.
“Shut up!” a woman’s voice rang out. It was Tracy. Many in the room did not recognize Su Jin, but she definitely did.
Tracy went up to Su Jin and fell on one knee before saying, “O great master, do you need me to get something done?”
All the well-dressed people in the meeting room were shocked and were about to say something when a silver glint flickered in Tracy’s eyes and they suddenly froze in time.
Su Jin gave her a pleased nod. He never intended to keep watch over this group of people, but since they were useful to him right now, he was going to make full use of this connection he had.
“I heard that you guys own several islands, of which some have active volcanoes, is that right?” asked Su Jin.
“Please wait here for a while, I’ll check for you right now.” Tracy spoke very respectfully to Su Jin now. Her feud with Su Jin had been completely settled, or rather, nobody dared to even dream of taking revenge on Su Jin.
The difference in power between the two sides was simply too great. It was so great that even if all of them teamed up and put in their best efforts, they wouldn’t be able to even hurt one of Su Jin’s fingers. What was the point of harboring vengeful thoughts when one was in such a situation?
Tracy turned on her laptop to check, then nodded and said, “That is correct. We have several private islands in the Pacific Ocean that have active volcanoes.”
“Excellent. Give me the biggest one. I need it now,” said Su Jin.
Tracy nodded and asked, “Do you need me to transfer the ownership of this island to yourself?”
Su Jin shook his head. “No need. Just let the people on the island know I’m taking over, then give me the coordinates of the island.”
Tracy immediately generated the coordinates on her laptop, and Su Jin and Bifang disappeared after seeing the numbers. Tracy wasn’t surprised by that at all. She called the person in charge of that island and told him to clear the island of people.
After Su Jin and Bifang arrived at the island, Su Jin said to her, “I’ll leave you here then. Have a good rest, I’ll summon you when I need you.”
“Thank you so much, Mr. Su,” said Bifang with a smile.
Su Jin waved and said, “I’m off then!” He disappeared in a flash and reappeared in his house in S City.
Situ Jin was chatting with Daitengu and seemed unwilling to talk to the Nine-tailed Fox. When he saw that Su Jin was back, he said, “Daitengu wants to go for a little tour in Japan. Surely I don’t have to send anyone with him, right?”
“You want to visit Japan?” Su Jin rubbed his chin, then nodded and said, “Sounds good to me. Let me know if you need anything.”
Daitengu nodded and said, “Thank you so much, Mr. Su!”
“I’ll send you there then,” said Su Jin.
But Daitengu shook his head and smiled, “Mr. Situ has already booked a ticket for tomorrow, so I’ll fly there myself. I’d like to experience what it’s like being an ordinary human too.”
Su Jin turned to the Nine-tailed Fox and asked, “What about you? What do you want?”
“I want to make my debut!” said the Nine-tailed Fox without hesitation.
“Wait, what?” Su Jin thought he was hearing things. “You want to… what?!”
“I want to make my debut!” said the Nine-tailed Fox as though Su Jin ought to know what she was talking about.
Su Jin spun toward Situ Jin and glared at the other man. “What kind of conversation were you guys having while I was away?! Why is she even thinking about making her debut?!”
Situ Jin smirked and said, “It wasn’t me! I just noticed that she seemed really bored, so I turned on the TV for her and she started watching one of those idol selection programs, and so…”
The Nine-tailed Fox was still holding onto the remote control as she smiled sweetly at Su Jin and said, “I want to join an idol selection program too!”
“Don’t be ridiculous!” Su Jin didn’t know what to do. She looked determined to do this, so he had no choice but to compromise, “If you really want to become a celebrity, I’ll get Situ to contact the best agency in the country and they’ll put everything together for you.”
“No, I want to join a competition!” She refused to give in. Daitengu and Situ Jin turned their faces away to snicker secretly. Su Jin was already someone who gave in to anybody on his team, and her cutesy mannerisms were not making things any easier for him.
“Fine, fine, do whatever you want! Situ, find a way to register her for one of those programs!” snapped Su Jin as he grabbed hold of Situ Jin. If this guy hadn’t turned on the TV for the Nine-tailed Fox, she wouldn’t have gotten any ideas about becoming a celebrity.
But Situ Jin chuckled and said, “She doesn’t need help to do that. She can do it herself.”
“I’d advise you to put in some effort! I don’t care if the competition includes people who might harbor ill intentions toward her, but aren’t you afraid she might kill them all as a result?” said Su Jin with a similar chuckle.
Situ Jin froze for a moment. He had heard many stories about the sort of people who worked in the entertainment industry. If this super… wait, no, ultimate beauty were to become part of the industry, then those people would view her like fresh meat dangling in front of wolves. If she were an ordinary human, they would devour her without hesitation. But the problem was, the Nine-tailed Fox wasn’t an ordinary human!
“Or maybe… it’s better if I just get an agency to put everything together for her?” said Situ Jin awkwardly.
“No, I don’t want that! I want to join a competition!” The Nine-tailed Fox continued to insist on getting her way. It was Su Jin’s turn to laugh at Situ Jin now!
