New tricks for an old dog.

Caishen looked into Alix's unhappy eyes and he chuckled. He had managed to weasel twenty five percent of the shares of Yuwen high out of her. He did so deliberately because he wanted her to feel comfortable later on when he unveiled the other properties which he planned to buy around the school. 

She was looking at him with sad puppy eyes which almost tugged at his heartstrings so he looked away from her eyes and let go of her hands. 

"Are you unhappy with me?" he asked her.

She twisted her lips, forming a pout and glared at him. 

"Hmph." she responded. 

"What if I promise to give you all my available resources to help you expand the school as much as you wish?" he asked. 

"Hmph." Was the sound which came out of her. She even turned and gave him her back.
