Lin Zhou pursed his lips, looking rather embarrassed. "Boss Shen, ahem... uh, do you have any more of those cookies? I'd like to buy some."
Shen Lu: ...
'He's being so polite about it.'
Shen Lu took out a small bag containing about five cookies. "Here, these are for you."
"I can pay for them," Lin Zhou insisted.
"Consider it payment for helping me keep an eye on Song Zhigao."
"In that case, it would be rude of me to refuse."
Lin Zhou readily accepted, taking the bag of cookies and returning to his usual post.
He tore open the package and took a bite of a crispy, crumbly cookie.
Mmm~
'This is the stuff~'
He absolutely loved cookies.
'Sigh, but our security contract is up in just a few days. I wonder if Boss Shen will renew it.'
'This is the first time I've ever felt reluctant to leave an employer.'
'If Boss Shen is willing to renew, I'd even agree to a lower rate.'
'I just don't know if the boss would agree.'
