Chapter 592: A Joke!

Zheng Zhi was stunned and his voice instantly lowered. He hesitated and said, “Boss?”

Xiang Huai frowned.

He knew why Zheng Zhi was so hostile to the little kid. In fact, it was because of him. However, Zheng Zhi’s parents had died for the country and he had a high position in the special department.

That group of stubborn old men acknowledged Zheng Zhi’s existence. He belonged to the mainstream faction.

The entire department was also very complicated. Although it was under his control, he still wanted the little kid to have a few more friends and a few comrades whom she could trust with her life.

Zheng Zhi was the person he chose for the little kid.

Although this person was pedantic and looked down on others, he had a good side. Once he acknowledged you, he would be loyal to you. For example, Zheng Zhi had always supported him unconditionally.

Let him acknowledge the little kid and help her in the future...

In the future...

At this thought, Xiang Huai lowered his eyes and dared not think further.

Just as he was about to speak sternly, he saw Xue Xi walking over after paying. Hence, the coldness instantly dissipated. He only said to the phone, “Come look for me tonight.”

Just as he hung up, Xue Xi walked over. Seeing him holding her phone, she asked, “What’s wrong?”

Xiang Huai waved his hand and said, “Oh, an annoying mosquito.”

He turned around and passed the phone to Xue Xi. He then glanced at the wool in her hand and his eyes became even more honeyed.

He asked in a low voice, “How long does it take to knit a scarf?”

Xue Xi thought for a moment. “I just asked the store assistant. If one works fast, it’ll take about two days.”

Xiang Huai felt even sweeter. “Are you going to waste two days?”

The little kid could not even bear to watch a movie for two hours, yet she’d actually waste two days to knit him a scarf. She was simply too adorable.

Xiang Huai turned his head and could see the girl’s silky hair.

The two of them left the boutique and walked out together. They walked side by side on the school’s stone path. There were trees on both sides and the weather was turning cold. The yellow leaves on the ginkgo trees swayed with the wind.

There were only the two of them on the quiet road.

Xiang Huai held her hand and asked, “You want to develop a light source machine?”

Xue Xi was not surprised that he knew about her movements. She nodded. “Mhm.”

Xiang Huai said, “Then you have to be mentally prepared for failure.”

Xue Xi paused when she heard this.

After hearing about this, Yu Da had persuaded her not to do it.

However, Xiang Huai did not. At the very least, he supported her, right?

Xue Xi nodded.

Xiang Huai continued, “If there’s a problem with the funds, you can look for Qian Xin. He will definitely be willing to invest for you.”

Xue Xi: “...”

She had nine hundred million yuan. How could there be a problem with the funds?

However, she still nodded.

The two of them had dinner together. Xiang Huai wanted to stay with the little kid for a while longer, but Xue Xi said, “I want to go home tonight.”

Xiang Huai could only send her home.

When she reached home, it was already 8 PM. Xue Xi alighted from the car and Xiang Huai looked at her back and suddenly wanted to give her a good night hug.

Hence, he alighted and was about to look for Xue Xi when he saw Ye Li downstairs. When she saw Xue Xi, she was pleasantly surprised. “Xixi, you’re back?”

“Mhm,” Xue Xi said. “Mom, can you help me knit a scarf?”

Ye Li: “Of course. A scarf is very simple. Mom will probably be able to help you settle it in a few hours!”

Xue Xi heaved a sigh of relief. “Then I can read now.”

Xiang Huai: “...”

He stood rooted to the ground and twitched his lips.

He had long known that he should not have placed too much hope on the little kid. However, it was already not bad that she could think of giving him a gift!

As for whether the scarf was made by his mother-in-law or her, it did not matter.

Xiang Huai mentally prepared himself before turning to walk toward the car.

Sigh!

In the little kid’s heart, learning always came first!

...

...

Special department.

“You’re done for. You’re really done for this time! If you anger Boss, he’ll probably fly into a rage and become a beast tonight! Just thinking about Boss’s angry outburst makes me so scared~”

Jing Fei sat calmly on the sofa in Zheng Zhi’s office. He hugged his arms while saying that he was afraid, but his eyes were filled with obvious gloating.

Serves you right.

Who asked you to always bully Sister Xi!

You’ve finally kicked an iron plate this time, ha!

Thinking about how this old fogey would kneel and beg for mercy later, Jing Fei could not wait. He lowered his head to look at the time. Boss, why aren’t you back yet?

Zheng Zhi’s eyes flickered and he felt extremely guilty.

Calling Xue Xi to humiliate her was indeed not within his job scope. It was a personal matter. He had already been caught by his boss and did not know how he would be punished tonight.

Although he was a little afraid, he did not back down. “I was speaking the truth. I’m not afraid at all. Xue Xi came in through connections. I really don’t know what happened to Boss. He was actually bewitched by her!”

Jing Fei sneered. “Do you think Sister Xi is really not formidable? Didn’t she help us solve the case last time? Without her, the person you killed would either have been Yu Da or Fang Fang. The real murderer would have stayed in the special department.”

Zheng Zhi sneered. “Do you think that Boss would have allowed such a situation to happen after paying attention to this case? Let me tell you, the reason why Boss did not say a single word and did not appear from the beginning to the end is that he was hiding behind the scenes and helping Xue Xi! Otherwise, does she really think that she can solve the case just by reading some books? Then everyone in the world will become Sherlock Holmes!”

Jing Fei was furious. “It’s true that Boss set up a trap, but if Sister Xi isn’t that smart and didn’t find out that something was amiss, it would have been impossible for her to solve the case! That time, Boss didn’t help much!”

Zheng Zhi mocked, “You’ve really become Xue Xi’s fawning dog, huh? Aren’t you sucking up to Boss by sucking up to her? Heh, Jing Fei, don’t forget that this is the special department and not a place for you to cozy up to people!”

Jing Fei: “!!!”

He was so angry that he stomped his feet. “Son, how can you speak to your father like that? Don’t you know how to respect the old and cherish the young? Moreover, I like Sister Xi because Boss likes Sister Xi, but do you know Sister Xi? Aren’t you just spouting nonsense here? She once called the police and solved a military-style school’s case, saving so many people! Last time when we arrested that drug dealer, it was Sister Xi who did it! If she has the capability, let me respect her!”

Zheng Zhi sneered again. “She has now set up a light machine project at the school. Ha, she even dares to touch such things. She simply doesn’t know her own worth! Even if Boss helps, this project won’t succeed! I’ll just wait to see her make a fool of herself!”

“Who are you laughing at?”

A cold voice suddenly sounded from the door.
