After wearing the book, I attacked the villain boss

Chapter 244, The Lamp Bearer
Regardless of whether he met Pei Xiao at the Beichen base this time, Jiang Ran originally planned to go to the Dongchao base.

Not only for Chu Yuan, but also for Mrs. Huo Zhihua.

Seemingly inadvertently, Jiang Ran asked: "Captain Pei, I remember that your mother is the daughter of the Huo family? After all, you and Huo Lingyin are also brothers and sisters."

"Yeah." Mentioning his mother, Pei Xiao saw a subtle change in Jiang Ran's eyes, "Do you know my mother?"

"I know." Jiang Ran said casually, "Wei Yage told me."

Why did Wei Yage tell her this?Pei Xiao was thoughtful: "She knows about Si Xu's background?"

After the disaster, Huo Zhiqiang only went to the Xiling base once, for the sake of Si Xu.

It must have been at that time that Wei Yage heard something he shouldn't have heard.

"Well, yes, she overheard it."

Neither of them revealed Si Xu's life experience, but they both knew it well.

A bitter smile appeared in Pei Xiao's eyes, and he laughed at himself: "You also think that my mother has gone too far, don't you?"

"Alright...well." Unexpectedly, Jiang Ran didn't accuse Huo Zhihua of abandoning Si Xu, she thought about how to word it, "She still chose to give birth to the child and entrusted her to the child when she knew there was no way forward. Taking her away to be raised by her best friend... Thinking about it, at that time, this approach was already the most perfect way she could think of. "

Her only dissatisfaction with Huo Zhiqiang was what the woman said after seeing Si Xu.

Without knowing the truth, Huo Zhihua directly put all the responsibility on Jiang Yize in order to ask for the forgiveness of the abandoned son - this approach is too unkind.

It's strange to say that since Jiang Yize used to go to Dongchao base for meetings, Huo Zhiqian wanted to know Si Xu's information, isn't it easy?
When did she know about Si Xu's stay in Xiling Laboratory?Before Jiang Yize died?Before the disaster?Or after the disaster?

The more he thought about it, the more strange he felt. Jiang Ran touched his chin and asked Pei Xiao, "What kind of person is Mrs. Pei?"

Pei Xiao had never thought about this question.

In his eyes, his mother is a woman who maintains elegance all the time, is gentle and reasonable in dealing with others, handles things seamlessly, and even when she is angry, she will not make a scene.

She brought the etiquette and upbringing of the nobility to the extreme.

——As Mrs. Pei, as the mistress of the Pei family, this is enough.

He respects his mother because he understands that woman is persistent and proud.

But if you want to ask him what kind of person Huo Zhihua is, besides elegant, he can't think of other words for a while.

"Thinking about it for so long..." Jiang Ran muttered, "It seems that Mrs. Pei is a very mysterious person."

"..."

……

As a landmark building in Beichen City, the Lantern Tower was only used as a tourist attraction in the past.

It was built a hundred years ago, and its European-style architectural style makes it incompatible with this city with ancient history. It is said that this lamp building was once designated as a renovation project by the government.

No one could have imagined that after the end of the world, it would be able to play its true role.

In front of the downstairs platform, the inspectors kept coming and going. The observers sorted out the received information and handed them over to the Huo family courtyard.

All work is proceeding in an orderly manner.

On the red tiles on the top floor, a young woman stands upright, looking down at the city from a height.

Behind him, Si Xu seemed bored, yawning with his hands covering his lips.

It was late last night and he got up early today. The man felt that he was seriously sleep deprived.

Hearing the sound of yawning, the woman turned her head and looked at him with a half-smile, with a bit of sarcasm in her words: "Since you have a girlfriend, Professor Si Da, your energy is not as good as before."

Si Xu glanced at her, and said in a flat tone, "Oh, it's as if you know how I used to be."

"..."

The woman snorted, her eyes fixed on one spot: "I saw your little girlfriend...with that young master of the Pei family."

"Why, when you saw a beautiful girl, your mind ran away from home? - No need to deliberately add the second half of the sentence."

"...How did you find a girlfriend with such a vicious tongue?"

"What's the necessary relationship? You don't have a bad tongue and you don't have a boyfriend."

The girl couldn't bear it anymore: "Si Xu, are you here to trouble me?"

"Where do you deserve my troubles for you?"

"you……"

"I'm here to buy information from you."

Buy information?
The woman looked surprised: "Is there any news in this world that Professor Si Xuda can't get?"

Si Xu said lightly: "I didn't expect me to be so powerful in your mind, I didn't even know I was so powerful."

"..."

"Okay, the nonsense is over, Su Xin, let's get down to business."

You've finished disliking me, and started talking about business?The corner of Jiang Suxin's mouth twitched: "What information do you want?"

"I want to investigate a woman named Si Nian, and Qin Huai."

"Check Qinhuai again?" Jiang Suxin blurted out, "Who is Si Nian? Same surname as you, your sister?"

"Do you think I look like someone with a sister?"

"..." You pretended that I didn't say anything.

The woman played with a pile of hair that was hanging down, and squinted at Si Xu: "You know, I'm a businessman - you want Qin Huai and that...Si Nian? You want news about them, yes, you can use What are you going to exchange with me?"

"I also have news for you." Si Xu smiled slightly, "Luo Yuting is at Beichen Base."

Hearing this name, the woman's pretty face turned cold, and she sneered: "I am the lamp holder of this lamphouse, do you think I don't know this kind of news?"

"Of course I won't underestimate your intelligence sensitivity."

The woman looked coldly: "Then why did you mention him?"

Si Xu changed his posture and leaned against the wall, with a smile on his face, calm and composed: "I just want to tell you that I didn't tell Luo Yuting the news about you in the lamp building."

After the woman was taken aback, she became completely angry: "Si Xu, you bastard! Are you going to betray me?!"

Si Xu was still indifferent: "I have neither friendship nor cooperation with you, how can I say betrayal? ——I know that the lamp holder always regards money as something outside of him, so how about I exchange this news with you?"

"exchange?"

"Give me the information about Qin Huai and Si Nian, and I can make Luo Yuting never find you for the rest of his life."

The woman couldn't believe it: "Forever?"

"What? You don't want to?" Si Xu was stunned, "Could it be that you are actually refusing to welcome? Jiang Suxin, when did you become so scheming?"

Jiang Suxin's eyelids twitched fiercely: When did you bastard talk so much?Do you know how disgusting you are now.

She pointed to the exit on the top floor of the lamp building: "Go out."

Si Xu turned around without thinking: "I figured it out and contact me, remember, my time is limited."
