Chapter 75: Prelude to a large-scale Shura field

As soon as Lin's father interrupted, when the two returned to the box, the ambiguous atmosphere had dissipated a lot. The waiter knocked on the door politely and came in, presenting the tea cakes and cakes that had been ordered earlier one by one. The sweet and soft aroma immediately filled the entire space.

The desserts at the Palua Tea House are well-known for their beautiful shapes and unique tastes, but there is a bit too much cream, three layers inside and three layers outside. Lin Jianxi had just taken two bites when a little bit of it accidentally got on his lips. He frowned slightly, and just as he raised his hand, Fu Linbei handed him a wet wipe.

Lin Jianxi immediately took it and wiped it with a smile, nodding like a chick pecking at rice: "Thank you."

But eating too much sweet food will inevitably make you feel a little sick of it. His mouth was stuffed full, but his eyes were not idle. He looked around for a while and was about to take a piece of dessert to fill it up when Fu Linbei handed him a small plate of crispy, salty and fragrant sesame cakes.

He understands me! Lin Jianxi took it again, his eyes sparkling: "Thank you."

After he happily swallowed the delicious little crispy ball in his mouth, something was handed to him. Lin Jianxi took it habitually without even looking at it: "Thank you - what is this?"

It was a black gift box with exquisite workmanship. The lid was carved with fine patterns. It was square and palm-sized, and it was hard to guess what was inside.

"It's a job gift." Fu Linbei saw the young man's confusion and explained briefly, with a hint of trepidation hidden in his dark eyes, "Open it and see if you like it."

"Wow Linbei, you are so ritualistic!"

Lin Jianxi smiled and joked, then obediently opened the box, lowered his eyes and took a look, then was stunned for a moment.

An extremely beautiful and luxurious watch.

Even without talking about other things, just looking at the Theodor brand logo engraved on it, you can tell that it is definitely worth a lot of money, not to mention the diamonds embedded in the watch body are sparkling with dazzling light, and the leather strap is made of delicate material - it is completely worth taking directly to the auction site.

So Lin Jianxi immediately took a breath, quickly closed the lid, and then pushed it back carefully.

"No, this is too valuable. I can't accept it."

Fu Linbei seemed to have expected that he would refuse, and immediately gave another reason with confidence: "This is an employee benefit."

Lin Jianxi: "..." Do you believe what you heard?

"Or, you can wait until your internship salary is paid, and then take out a small portion of it as a gift to me in return." Without waiting for the young man to refute, he quickly gave another more feasible plan.

When someone proposes to open a skylight on the roof, others will definitely disagree. But if the other option is to directly open the roof, after weighing the pros and cons, others will accept the proposal of opening a skylight. This is the most typical house demolition effect. Fu Linbei is obviously well aware of this. Returning gifts is indeed easier to accept than receiving gifts for free, but——

Lin Jianxi held his forehead helplessly and said, "Linbei, let alone a small part, even if I take out all my internship salary, it is not enough for me to give you a return gift." Even if he added the pocket money given by his cheap father, it would still be enough.

"How could that be?" The man's face was filled with genuine confusion. After a while, he finally said slowly, "I'm the one who pays your internship salary, so—"
