The Witch's Taste

Chapter 201 It was obviously me who came first

Chen Ziang couldn't fall asleep for a long time.

Every time he closes his eyes, he can't help thinking wildly in his mind - there are too many things that have bothered him recently.

How does Suwon Saori Association arrange interviews?Will there be any surprises during the interview?What will be the outcome of the negotiations?

What happened to the mother consciousness in Xia Zili's body?What is that monster form?Why is there such a killing spree among the unemployed miners?
How did Xia Qingyu deal with it later?How is the relationship between the sisters now?Will her mother possess her again?

Thinking of Yuegong Ling Naiyuan's delay in returning from the Rose Nebula, Chen Ziang really couldn't fall asleep, so he planned to get up and warm a cup of milk.

Leaving the room and going down to the first floor, he saw Xia Qingyu sitting in the living room, gracefully crossing one leg, putting the computer on his lap and typing on the keyboard.

"Are you still asleep?" Chen Ziang greeted her.

"Yeah." Xia Qingyu continued working in front of the computer without looking up.

"Would you like some milk?" Chen Ziang said, "I can make you a cup."

Xia Qingyu picked up the teacup next to her, let Chen Ziang see the thick tea brewing in it, and took a sip.

"Will drinking strong tea affect your sleep?" Chen Ziang asked worriedly.

"Guess why I want to make strong tea?" Xia Qingyu asked him back.

"Uh." Chen Ziang was stunned for a moment, and asked, "Is it because of the outbreak of turmoil, do you need to stay up and work all night?"

"If you can go through the question in your head before asking the question, it can save us a lot of time." Xia Qingyu said with a cold snort.

"I don't think it's a waste of time." Chen Ziang is now resistant to venom, and he doesn't feel embarrassed and angry. He just went to the microwave to heat up milk, and slowly came to her with a cup, "Speaking nonsense is a human routine. Social behavior. If you want a subordinate who can only do things and don't talk nonsense, you can buy a robot."

"Bad irony." Xia Qingyu said coldly, "If one day I can no longer bear your stupidity, I will consider letting a robot take your place."

Chen Ziang chuckled, knowing that Xia Qingyu was trying to scare him.

Although robots do not have the risk of mental pollution, they do not possess spirituality and cannot use sealed items. They can only deal with some low-level weirdness, and their growth rate is almost 0. It is impossible to replace operators.

"How's the situation outside now?" He sat down beside Xia Qingyu, and took a sip of warm milk.

"Have you read the book I gave you?" Xia Qingyu asked without answering.

"What book?" Chen Ziang didn't respond.

When he saw "Old Lady Yi Zejir" on the coffee table, he remembered that Xia Qingyu suggested that he read this fairy tale earlier...but he didn't take it to heart at all.

"It doesn't matter." Xia Qingyu tapped the keyboard and sent the email, "Simple stupidity is not terrible, but stupidity without self-knowledge is really hopeless."

Chen Ziang decided to pretend that he didn't understand her insinuations, took out his phone and started checking the group text messages.

Sure enough, although it was already early in the morning, there are still many people working overtime in the group, and most of them are operators of the intelligence department.

Yesterday, Xia Zili's body was occupied by her mother's consciousness, and she transformed into an upright two-legged sheep-headed monster, chopping melons and vegetables at the out-of-control miners smashing around in Times Square. There were too many witnesses on the scene, so all of them had to be Do a memory cleanse.

But these miners are not law-abiding citizens. After robbing things, they all know that they have committed a crime. At this time, most of them are looking for places to hide—bringing great trouble to the positioning of the intelligence department.

Fortunately, the higher-ups finally made a timely decision. In order to avoid further deterioration of the situation, they decisively authorized the security officers to carry out on-site suppression. Therefore, the intelligence department just sent people to the public security department to check every time a group of people were arrested. There are no mental polluters, and the work efficiency is not too low, but it is inevitable to work overtime tonight.

Xia Qingyu worked overtime here, and Chen Ziang was also a little embarrassed to go to bed. After all, it is a taboo in the workplace to leave work earlier than the leader, and now he doesn't feel sleepy, so he simply drinks milk, plays with his phone, and reads the news , act like you care about your work, and behave positively.

………………

In the bedroom, Xia Zili woke up and turned around. Smelling the familiar scent of her sister, she subconsciously reached out and hugged her.

Touched empty.

Is my sister already up?
She dazedly took the cell phone next to her pillow and looked closely, but it was only three o'clock in the morning.

After lying on the bed for a while, Xia Zili's sleepiness also subsided, so she planned to go downstairs to get a glass of water and see where her sister was by the way.

Wearing slippers and walking down the stairs, she saw Xia Qingyu sitting on the sofa working, and was about to call out for her sister, when she suddenly saw Chen Ziang sitting beside her, she suddenly felt a little blocked and uncomfortable for no reason.

Are they... are they on such a good relationship?Obviously... obviously I knew him first...

No, that's not the case... My sister is in the same unit as him, so it's normal to sit together at this time, and...they don't talk to each other much, do they?

Definitely just working!Hmm, why should I be cranky?

Xia Zili patted her cheek hard to regain consciousness, then walked down the stairs gently, and asked in a low voice:

"Still sleeping?"

Chen Ziang heard the voice, turned around and asked:

"Wake you up?"

"No." Xia Zili said shyly, "It's just that I can't sleep."

She came to Chen Ziang and Xia Qingyu's side, and sat down in the gap between them.

Chen Ziang was a little puzzled: Why don't you sit on the other side of your sister?
But Xia Zili squeezed in so directly, the smooth thighs under the pajama pants were close to his skin, and he couldn't concentrate on reading the group messages, so he stepped aside.

"Chen Ziang, are you working?" Xia Zili didn't seem to notice his discomfort, but continued to move her upper body to look at the phone screen.

"I'm looking at the news in the group." Chen Ziang resisted the emotion in his heart, and replied, "Tonight's situation is quite special. If there is any emergency, we can respond in time."

These words were not so much for Xia Zili's hearing, but as a way of expressing in front of Xia Qingyu: I'm also working.

"What about my sister?" Xia Zili turned her head and hugged her sister's arm.

"I really have a job." Xia Qingyu patted her head helplessly, "Hey, go to bed first."

Does she "really" have a job, and I'm just pretending to be the co-author?
Knowing that he was seen through, Chen Ziang quickly changed the subject and said with a smile:

"Would you like some fruit?"

"I don't need it." Xia Zili replied, "You guys go to work first, I'll go and cut it."

"Why is this so embarrassing?" Chen Ziang stood up immediately, "Let me do it."

The two walked towards the kitchen together, Xia Qingyu turned her head expressionlessly, and saw Xia Zili in the kitchen taking an apple, leaning over to talk to Chen Ziang, then covering her mouth and giggling.

After a moment of silence, she closed the computer forcefully, placed it on the sofa next to her, and then looked at the mobile phone on the coffee table.

The light on the phone screen was dimly lit, and the latest received text message had jumped out, and the note of the sender was "Uncle".

Xia Qingyu picked up the phone and unlocked it, and began to read the message on it:

"Qing Yu, the meeting is over. Some people are very dissatisfied with your absence, but overall they didn't pay much attention to it."

"By the way, I heard that you are staying at your subordinate's house tonight? Did you encounter any special circumstances?"

Xia Qingyu didn't change her face, typed four words quickly, and then pressed send hard:
none of your business.
