Chapter 491: Chapter 491
Looking resentfully at Zuzi getting out of the car at the hotel, waving goodbye breezily, Bao Gucheng sat in the back seat with a stern face.
Wei Yang sneaked a glance at his boss through the rear-view mirror, feeling like the boss was a bit like a statue today.
Was it because he was going to visit the Old President, so he was a bit heavy-hearted.
Trying to lighten the mood, Wei Yang forced a laugh and said, "Mr. Bo, is the boat running smoothly?"
Bao Gucheng grunted in response.
The boat was fine, it was drinking that caused trouble.
Wei Yang: "I heard Miss Xi prepared a gift for you, can we have a look?"
Bao Gucheng lifted his chin, shifting lightly in his seat to feel the cloud-like comfort of the four-cornered pants, looking much better: "Not convenient."
However, there’s also an umbrella worth showing off.
He picked up the plain white umbrella beside him, gently stroking the agarwood handle.
Seeing him happy, Wei Yang relaxed as well, chuckling: "Mr. Bo, I heard the ship’s construction team left some practical items for us before they left, things to make life easier... Hey, is this umbrella one of their freebies?"
Bao Gucheng’s face darkened: "No."
Wei Yang was puzzled as to why he became unhappy again: "Oh. Just as the cleaning lady at our camp said she needed an umbrella, if you don’t want it maybe I can give it to her, since you don’t like having clutter in the car..."
Bao Gucheng said coolly: "You planning to court the cleaning lady?"
Wei Yang: "...!"
Oh, felt like this sheep said something wrong again, but didn’t know what it was!

As soon as Zuzi returned to the hotel, Xi Rubao snuck over to inquire, "Sis, was brother-in-law impressive last night?"
Zuzi chuckled lightly: "Yeah, pretty impressive."
Riding a Great White Shark for the first time, he didn’t even blink.
The boy sure was calm and composed, capable of being entrusted with important tasks.
Xi Rubao laughed mischievously, then pretended to be mature and gave serious advice: "Sis, did you take safety measures? Mommy said girls should know how to protect themselves!"
Zuzi: "Yeah, safe."
The boy absolutely won’t recall the Undersea Dragon Palace incident, she was well-prepared, very thorough.
No matter how much she pried, her immortal sister remained calm and composed, not a hint of embarrassment, making Xi Rubao wonder inwardly if matters between men and women were so commonplace after all, was it really just like that after trying?
Just as she was puzzling over it, Zuzi asked her back, "How’s Xiao Sha’s comic going?"
Xi Rubao’s eyes lit up with joy: "Superb, fans have exceeded ninety million, just waiting to see if we’ll achieve the hundred million myth today, let me check..."
She opened her phone, about to count the followers on Penguin Reading, but a Weibo notification popped up blocking her.
"What? Shen Ying is stirring up trouble again? I honestly have no liking for this author at all!"
"Come on, last time they accused us of copying her theme, copying her author’s name and were ridiculed, and now she’s made the color palette with vivid details accusing us of plagiarism?"
"This must be paid trending, how can such nonsense even make it to the top three hot searches?"
Xi Rubao was fuming, rolling up her sleeves ready to fight back with a side account.
Zuzi smiled gently: "Little grass fish, how do you plan to counter that?"
Xi Rubao: "I, I..."
She suddenly realized today’s situation was different from yesterday. Yesterday, they merely accused them of copying themes and names, which was child’s play, simply a matter of arguing fiercely, whoever shouted loudest would convince people of the truth.
But today, faced with such a professional color palette accusation, mere arguing wouldn’t solve the problem.
Rather, the other side’s fans would call them unreasonable.
What should be done?
The little grass fish started to worry.
