Chapter 328 What are you doing here? Why didn't you go keep your Miss Dilraba company?
A dozen seconds later, Ma Xiaoxuan opened the door.
She looked like she had just taken a shower; a towel was still wrapped around her hair.
"What are you doing here? Why aren't you with your Miss Dilraba?"
Although she saw Wang Xiucheng in the visual system, Ma Xiaoxuan still asked.
Furthermore, Ma Xiaoxuan's tone suggested she was somewhat unhappy.
Wang Xiucheng pretended not to hear and walked straight in.
Ma Xiaoxuan glared at her, closed the door, and then handed a stack of documents to Wang Xiucheng.
"This is the new asset list that Fertitta sent this morning." Ma Xiaoxuan handed a bottle of water to Wang Xiucheng. "Take a look and see if there are any assets that interest you."
“I’ve already taken a look. Although it’s a new asset, there’s really nothing of value in it.”
Wang Xiucheng sat on the sofa and started flipping through the pages.
There are quite a few new properties, most of which are large-scale real estate projects in big cities, seemingly investments for development.
Wang Xiucheng wasn't interested in those; he was only interested in properties in Los Angeles and New York.
Unlike last time, this time there are entire apartment buildings and office buildings, with prices reaching hundreds of millions.
Of course, in Wang Xiucheng's eyes, it wasn't worth that much.
As for new companies, none of them interested Wang Xiucheng.
Furthermore, Fertitta even included his restaurants in China in this asset deal, and priced them exorbitantly.
Several years ago, these restaurants were already operating at a loss due to boycotts by Chinese football fans.
"They're trying to get me to take over," Wang Xiucheng complained.
Ma Xiaoxuan nodded, looking at Wang Xiucheng's face, especially his long stubble, and suddenly asked, "How long has it been since you shaved?"
Wang Xiucheng was taken aback. "What?"
Wang Xiucheng didn't hear what Ma Xiaoxuan said.
Ma Xiaoxuan shook her head and didn't say anything.
Seemingly after a moment's internal struggle, Ma Xiaoxuan got up and went back into the house to find her razor and hair clippers.
"Come here." Ma Xiaoxuan's voice was somewhat cold, as if she was still unhappy.
Wang Xiucheng touched his hair. He felt fine, but he didn't dare to refute Ma Xiaoxuan at this moment.
So he obediently sat down in front of the mirror and let Ma Xiaoxuan start cutting his hair.
But Wang Xiucheng's hands were not idle; he was still flipping through Fertitta's files.
Aside from some new stocks, Wang Xiucheng still didn't have his eye on anything else.
"Sister Xuan," Wang Xiucheng suddenly called out.
Ma Xiaoxuan, who was stroking Wang Xiucheng's head, was startled and immediately withdrew her hand. "What are you doing?"
“Apart from the new property I designed, nothing else is needed. Also, tell Fertitta that if there is no cash, use the Gold Brick Hotel to settle the debt. This tug-of-war can’t go on forever.”
"Okay." Ma Xiaoxuan's face flushed slightly, but fortunately the room wasn't too bright.
"Also, Sister Xuan, let's take over the New York property right away. You and Reba can't keep living in hotels forever," Wang Xiucheng said. "It's not safe here. I'm always worried about you guys when I go out to compete."
Wang Xiucheng mentioning Dilraba's name initially displeased Ma Xiaoxuan.
But having her with her made Ma Xiaoxuan feel a little better.
“I’ll contact them about this,” Ma Xiaoxuan said, continuing to cut Wang Xiucheng’s hair with both hands.
The hair clippers quickly restored Wang Xiucheng's hairstyle to short hair.
Then Ma Xiaoxuan skillfully began shaving Wang Xiucheng's beard.
Wang Xiucheng obediently raised his head, looking up at Ma Xiaoxuan, and said, "And Old Gordon's money..."
Sensing Wang Xiucheng's breath as he looked up to speak, Ma Xiaoxuan's face flushed even more. "I've already paid it back for you."
"Really? Thank you, Sister Xuan. I don't know what I would have done without you," Wang Xiucheng said with a grin.
“You have other older sisters even without me,” Ma Xiaoxuan said, her tone sharp and sarcastic for some reason.
"How can that be the same? I've lived with you for five years, how can they compare?"
Upon hearing this, Ma Xiaoxuan's heart suddenly started beating a little faster.
Seemingly uncomfortable with the atmosphere, Ma Xiaoxuan quickly finished shaving Wang Xiucheng's beard.
Somewhat flustered, Ma Xiaoxuan returned to the house, put away her hair clippers and other items, and calmed herself down for a few seconds before leaving the house.
"Go back..."
Unexpectedly, as soon as she opened her mouth, Ma Xiaoxuan realized that Wang Xiucheng was not there.
Have they already gone back?
Unsure of her own feelings, Ma Xiaoxuan sat on the sofa, somewhat annoyed.
But the next moment, she suddenly heard the sound of water coming from the bathroom, as well as Wang Xiucheng's voice.
"Sister Xuan, get me a nightgown."
Ma Xiaoxuan covered her head in annoyance, and after a long while, she threw a nightgown at the bathroom door in frustration.
Then Ma Xiaoxuan went back to her room and slammed the door shut.
……
The next morning at 6 a.m., Ma Xiaoxuan woke up groggily.
Ma Xiaoxuan was startled when she stepped out of the room.
There was someone lying on the sofa.
And there was also a slight snoring sound.
Moreover, from her perspective, the person appeared to be naked, lying on the sofa.
Seeing that the door was locked tight, Ma Xiaoxuan felt relieved.
She roughly guessed who it was.
I walked over quietly, and sure enough, Wang Xiucheng was fast asleep on the sofa.
The white pajamas I gave him yesterday were almost rolled up in his clothes from all the turning he did.
It's supposed to be pajamas, but on Wang Xiucheng, it's barely more than a piece of cloth—it serves a purpose, but not much.
Her face flushed slightly. After glancing at a place she shouldn't have seen, Ma Xiaoxuan went back into the room and took out her own blanket to cover Wang Xiucheng.
Then Ma Xiaoxuan just stood there, looking at Wang Xiucheng's sleeping face, not knowing what she was thinking.
A few minutes later, Wang Xiucheng suddenly moved, startling Ma Xiaoxuan who was standing next to him.
Wang Xiucheng slowly woke up, and after looking around for a while with blurry eyes, he finally focused and saw the person next to the sofa.
"Good morning, Sister Xuan," Wang Xiucheng mumbled.
"Why don't you go back to sleep?" Ma Xiaoxuan asked, her face flushed but her tone displeased.
"I originally planned to wait until I was dry before leaving, but I was so tired that I fell asleep."
After Wang Xiucheng finished speaking, he got up, glanced at the time on his phone, went into the bathroom to relieve himself, and then surprisingly staggered into Ma Xiaoxuan's room, plopped down on Ma Xiaoxuan's bed, and continued to sleep.
Angrily, Ma Xiaoxuan took the blanket from the sofa back into the room and threw it hard on Wang Xiucheng.
Just a dozen seconds later, Ma Xiaoxuan reluctantly covered Wang Xiucheng with the blanket before closing the door and going outside.
The doorbell rang suddenly. Ma Xiaoxuan turned on the video camera and saw it was her younger brother, Ma Wei.
Just as she was about to instinctively open the door, Ma Xiaoxuan froze.
Wang Xiucheng's clothes were still on the sofa...
Not knowing what she was afraid of, Ma Xiaoxuan immediately packed up Wang Xiucheng's belongings and threw them into the bathroom.
He calmed down and opened the door.
