At this moment, the sounds of Baixiao coming from the back room suddenly disappeared.
Ningguang was startled and turned to look. She saw Xia Zhi appear at the entrance of the back room and walk towards her.
Xia Zhi walked to the table and said, "Diona, mix me a Rainbow Juice."
"Yes, Boss!"
Diona quickly grabbed a clean glass and prepared to mix the juice.
Ningguang looked at the back room, a little puzzled.
"Mr. Xia, is Baixiao's massage finished?"
"Not yet."
"Then this Rainbow Juice is...?"
"This is for Miss Baixiao. She seems a little dehydrated, so I came to get a glass of juice to rehydrate her."
"???"
Ningguang was full of question marks.
How could someone get dehydrated from a massage?
Although, from her personal experience, during Mr. Xia's massage, due to sweating and other reasons, the body did lose a lot of water, but Baixiao chose the relaxation package, not the weight loss package. It shouldn't be to the point of dehydration, right?
Or was Baixiao's constitution special? Did she lose water more easily than others?
The other girls not far away, hearing Xia Zhi's words, couldn't help but stop what they were doing and cast their gazes over, their expressions becoming a little strange.
Diona was stunned for a moment, her face slightly red. She placed the glass on the table, picked up the bottle containing the Rainbow Concentrate, and prepared to mix the juice.
"Wait a minute."
Ningguang came back to her senses and suddenly turned to stop Diona.
Diona stopped the action of adding water, her expression a little puzzled.
"Miss Ningguang, what's wrong?"
"Don't use water. Please use wine directly."
"Ah?"
"Baixiao is my personal foreign steward. She is mainly responsible for business dealings and diplomatic activities, so she will also be mainly responsible for the process of the banquet on the Jade Chamber the day after tomorrow. Since Miss Diona has already agreed to mix Rainbow wine for the guests at the banquet, it is also necessary for Baixiao, the person in charge, to experience its taste in advance."
"Oh! Okay!"
Diona nodded, put down the water in her hand, picked up the bottle of wine, and slowly poured it into the glass.
Xia Zhi smiled and said, "So Miss Ningguang has already persuaded Diona?"
"Not persuaded, Miss Diona and I are cooperating."
"Cooperating?"
"Yes."
A somewhat mysterious smile appeared on Ningguang's face.
"Miss Diona is a very promising business partner. I have high hopes for her."
"Don't steal my employee away."
"Boss, I won't leave! I'm just going to help Miss Ningguang!"
"Miss Diona is really not hesitant at all. Mr. Xia, look at your employee, I can't steal her like this."
"Haha, tomorrow is Thursday, I'll fry some small fish for you."
"Really? Boss?"
"Really, remember to get up early tomorrow morning and go to the dock to buy some fresh small fish."
"Okay! Boss, this is ready!"
"Okay, you two chat. I still need to give Miss Baixiao a massage."
Xia Zhi said, took the glass, and walked towards the back room.
Ningguang watched his back disappear at the entrance of the back room, then turned back to look at Diona.
The girl in front of her was quietly smacking her lips, a smile on her face, seemingly immersed in the beautiful fantasy of eating fried small fish tomorrow.
Tomorrow is Thursday.
Ningguang had been here many times and knew that the Summer Shop ate fried chicken every Thursday.
She didn't know why, and she had asked Mr. Xia, but Mr. Xia didn't answer her, just smiled with a nostalgic expression.
Thinking of the delicious, juicy taste of fried chicken, Ningguang couldn't help but secretly swallow her saliva.
She looked at Diona and smiled slightly.
Freeloading was fine. The main thing was that they were already partners, so she would definitely have to come here more often to talk about business.

Xia Zhi returned to the back room.
Baixiao had just rested for a while, and now she finally had some strength to sit up on the bed.
Her lips were slightly dry, and her voice sounded a little hoarse: "Mr. Xia, I'm sorry, I seem to have caused you trouble..."
Xia Zhi handed her the glass: "Don't talk, drink something first."
"Okay, thank you..."
Baixiao took the glass and took a sip, a little impatiently.
The wonderful taste burst on her tongue in an instant.
Baixiao was stunned for a moment, looked down at the colored liquid in the glass, and could smell a faint aroma of alcohol.
"This... doesn't seem to be Rainbow Juice, it's wine?"
"It's Rainbow wine mixed by Diona. How does it taste?"
"It's delicious."
"I was originally going to get you Rainbow Juice, but Miss Ningguang changed it to Rainbow wine. She said that this wine will be used to entertain guests at the banquet the day after tomorrow, so she wanted you to taste it first."
"I see, I understand. Such a good wine can indeed add a lot to Miss Ningguang's banquet."
Baixiao took another big sip.
"You can drink slowly, there's no need to rush."
"I made a fool of myself earlier."
"It's okay. I know you have a lot to do every day, but Miss Baixiao, you should also pay attention in the future. No matter how busy you are, you still need to have time to drink water."
"Yes, I know..."
Baixiao was a little embarrassed, and it was really embarrassing to say that she actually deliberately drank less water before coming here.
Too embarrassing!
Baiwen is really a pain!
She only knows how to give bad advice!
When she gets back later, she will definitely let her know how powerful she is!
"Are you finished?"
"Finished."
"Give me the glass."
"Okay."
Xia Zhi put the empty glass aside.
"Miss Baixiao, please lie down again. The previous massage was not finished, let's continue."
"Okay, thank you, Mr. Xia."
Baixiao lay on the small bed.
After drinking a glass of Rainbow wine, she replenished a lot of water and vitality, and now her lips were moist again.
Xia Zhi poured out the [Essential Oil] again and began to massage her.
Baixiao couldn't help but make a comfortable sound.
Compared to the effort to endure before, her voice was a little different this time.
"Ugh~ Mr. Xia~"
"Hmm?"
"Can you use a little more force~ um~"
"Okay."
"There~ Can you go a little higher~ Yes~ That's it~ So good~"
"..."
What, you're so horny.
Xia Zhi couldn't help but "look" at Baixiao.
Her face was a little red at this time.
But it wasn't all the redness of shame, it was more of a drunken blush.
She... was she drunk?
As Ningguang's personal foreign steward, mainly responsible for business dealings and diplomatic activities, she should often participate in business social events. Just a small glass of wine, it shouldn't be, right?
Could it be because I shook the glass a few more times when I brought the wine back, so the wine was considered to have been stacked twice with [Water Spirit's Blessing]?
Xia Zhi was a little curious about this, "looked" at the empty wine glass placed there, decided to find an opportunity to try it later, and then continued to massage Baixiao seriously.
And at this time in the front hall, the girls, hearing the somewhat unrestrained and strange sounds coming from the back room, their expressions became strange again.
So... no wonder she was dehydrated... (lmao)
