Chapter 61: Don't addle your bodyguard's mind

The next day, Xi Zirui waits for Su Xueyi to leave for work first, despite his suggestion that they ride on the same car.

He has some important questions to ask Ni Ni, the kind that he needs privacy for.

Sprawling out on the huge kingsize bed, he pulls up the holo screen and says. "Ok, you're going to tell me what the fuck is going on with Su Xueyi's side hustle."

"Answering Host: Ni Ni doesn't know."

"I'm getting really tired of that excuse."

She chimes in a higher register. "Ni Ni means it! Su Xueyi is supposed to be a shady businessman, making his fortune by selling low quality goods as luxury items."

Xi Zirui refrains from pointing out that all luxury items are a scam, low quality or not. But he's not in university anymore, and Ni Ni isn't the Marxist theory professor he was always trying to impress.

"He's doing more than that, and you know it!"

"Ni Ni can see that, but he wasn't supposed to."
