286 Su Ji’s New Business
Then, he received a few messages. A bunch of information about different women were sent over.
Pei Huai opened them one by one, his thin lips slightly pursed.
With just a glance, he knew that his girlfriend would not like any of those women.
[Pei Huai: “Continue looking.” ]
When he found her, he would give her the pair small lion statues that had been sealed away.

When Xu Ni entered Su Ji’s room, she invited him to get on the bed.
She also asked him to fill the teapot with water, get some food, wash them, and put them on the small table.
When that was done, Xu Ni seemed to have realized something and asked in annoyance, “you asked me to come here just to order me around?”
“No, I really have something to ask you,” Su Ji smiled and took a bite of a java apple.
It was really crunchy.
Xu Ni felt that she was setting a trap for him, so he was quite vigilant, “tell me then.”
“How many years have you been smoking?” Su Ji asked.
“Four or five years,” Xu Ni replied.
Su Ji glanced at him. He was not that old.
“What’s so surprising? Many around me all started smoking at the same age as me.”
Su Ji nodded, “a seasoned smoker.”
Xu Ni replied, “not really. I know others who need more than one packet a day.”
Su Ji seemed to be quite satisfied with this number.
She took another bite of the java apple and reached into her pocket with her other hand. “Why did you smoke in the first place? Because you don’t want to live anymore?”
“???
“Who would choose to kill themselves by smoking? It’s too slow! There must be something troubling you, right?”
Xu Ni didn’t know whether he was angry or tempted, but he also took a java apple and took a bite.
Su Ji pointed to another java apple with her chin, “the one you took isn’t sweet. The one beside is.”
Xu Ni took the one she was pointing at and took a bite. The juice flowed out, and his eyes widened.
It was really sweet!
Su Ji smiled at his expression. He seemed like a child who had been raised in the city and had not seen much of the world. She continued to talk about serious business, “aren’t you worried that smoking is bad for your health?”
Xu Ni replied, “I’ll definitely be worried when I cough or feel pain in my lungs…”
“And also when I let my thoughts run wild in the middle of the night.”
Su Ji said, “if there are substitute cigarettes that are not bad for the body, but are a little more expensive. Would you buy them?”
“Of course,” Xu Ni replied and frowned, “you mean those electronic cigarettes? Those are not real cigarettes, it’s different when you smoke it. It’s pointless.”
Su Ji had never heard of e-cigarettes before. She immediately took out something from her pocket and slammed it on the table.
“Try this. Does it look like the one you usually smoke?”
Xu Ni looked down at the table. It was a white cigarette.
It was handmade, but it was very delicate. He picked it up with a suspicious look and sniffed it. Anyway, for a smoker like him who had been smoking for four or five years, he could identify the smell of cigarette smoke and sense a little sweetness…was it strawberry-mint flavored?
He took it in his mouth. Before he lit it, he asked Su Ji, “is this a contraband item?”
Although he was rebellious, he was law-abiding.
Su Ji replied, “don’t worry. It’s legal.”
Xu Ni lit the cigarette doubtfully and tasted it. “Isn’t this a strawberry-mint-flavored cigarette?”
