"..."
Lu Xining frowned slightly, wanting to push her sister away, but found that she was holding on quite tightly, clearly on purpose.
"My sister's skin has gotten thicker," she thought, scrutinizing Lu Baizhi for a few moments before making her judgment.
She had actually wanted to have a passionate kiss with Fan Xiao just now. With so many people watching in public, it would have been quite exciting. However… since her sister had stopped her from getting the best opportunity, she decided to skip it this time.
Anyway, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future, and the mere presence of Bai Zhi on the road is hardly an obstacle.
Chapter 374 I advise you not to cause trouble
"It's been very quiet for the past five days, there's been hardly any sound."
After breaking free from her sister's embrace, Lu Xining asked Fan Xiao, "How's the situation on your end? Do you still need me to keep watch over things?"
Fan Xiao knew that when Lu Xining said "quiet," he meant that his family was safe during the past five days and had not been followed or attacked.
Before leaving, he asked Lu Xining to look after his family, as an extra layer of protection.
Fan Xiao sighed softly, "My situation was progressing smoothly, but the result was a bit unexpected and not ideal. However, you can stop your work now. I've thought of a new solution, and we can discuss the details later."
“Hmm,” Lu Xining nodded, “We can have a more in-depth discussion tonight.”
I suspect you're driving, but I have no proof... Fan Xiao subconsciously muttered to himself.
Having known Lu Xining for a while, I always feel that every word she says has a hint of something suggestive in it.
This shouldn't be his problem, right?
Fan Xiao gathered his scattered thoughts, turned his head to look to his side and met Su Tong's gaze not far away.
"Um... is there something you need?"
Startled by the sudden gaze of the great demon, Su Tong remained outwardly calm.
"It's nothing, I just wanted to remind you to come over to my house sometime," Fan Xiao said. "Qingshan will be staying at home for a while."
"We're really not in that kind of relationship..."
"That `s a deal."
Fan Xiao didn't give her a chance to explain.
As the saying goes, the eldest brother is like a father. Although he always took a teasing attitude towards Song Qingshan's marriage and love life, he was actually quite concerned about it.
If Song Qingshan's personality is average, he doesn't need to worry too much about this matter.
The crux of the matter is... Song Qingshan's personality is unusual, and his physique is beyond the range of normal people.
So even though this guy is only seventeen, Fan Xiao is already very worried about his future romantic relationships.
Moreover, if Song Qingshan's marriage goes wrong, he will probably be pressured even more.
Now that a young girl has finally shown some interest in Song Qingshan and doesn't seem to mind his personality or physique, how can he, as the eldest brother, not pay attention to her?
Fan Xiao felt that he had been influenced by his family's constant pressure to get married.
"..."
Su Tong forced a smile, which was taken as an agreement.
Instinctively, she dared not refuse.
Although Fan Xiao didn't say anything threatening and even had a friendly smile, she couldn't help but feel afraid.
"Let him go. Song Qingshan seems to have grown so much all of a sudden, like he's been given a catalyst. I'm quite curious about how he trained."
Su Tong felt that she could ask him for advice.
After all, what happened has left her feeling somewhat insecure.
Only when you have your own strength can you feel at ease.
"Can I come along?"
Su Qian, who was standing next to Su Tong, suddenly asked a question.
After asking, she explained, "My sister is quite shy and doesn't feel comfortable on her own, so I'm with her."
"What are you doing following along? To be a third wheel?"
At this moment, Lu Xining suddenly took a step forward and looked at Su Qian without any politeness, saying, "A person should have self-awareness and know how to read the atmosphere. These are basic qualities. Don't try to get involved in everything. You're as annoying as a fly, even dogs would dislike you."
"..."
Su Qian was stunned and didn't react for a moment.
Was she... scolded?
I got scolded by a girl I just met?
This……
Perhaps because such an experience was so rare, Su Qian's first reaction was not anger, but bewilderment and astonishment.
Are young girls these days so bold?
Just as Su Qian was about to retort, Lu Xining glanced at her, and the pressure in his eyes made her subconsciously shut her mouth.
Yes, Lu Xining didn't even bother to pretend anymore, directly displaying the power of a C-level player to ordinary people.
Seeing that the other party had quieted down, Lu Xining ignored them and turned to Fan Xiao, saying, "Let's go, I'm driving, let's go to the parking lot first."
“Okay, let’s go straight to your place. I have something to say.” Fan Xiao nodded. “I’ll go back tonight.”
“Let’s go back tomorrow,” Lu Xining said. “It’s dark at night, and it’s dangerous to walk at night.”
"..."
Fan Xiao glanced at the modern cityscape, a steel jungle in the distance, but did not reply.
This is probably what they mean by lying through one's teeth.
He suppressed his urge to complain, called over Lu Baizhi and Du Ruo, and the four of them headed towards the parking lot.
Behind them, Su Qian stood still, her expression somewhat bewildered.
The girl looked much younger than her, probably just graduated from high school, but... she sensed a strong sense of contempt in her eyes when she looked at her.
And it's also very oppressive.
This made her subconsciously suppress the urge to retort out of fear.
"Xiaotong, didn't you think that girl just now... was really sharp?"
Su Qian asked her younger sister a question.
"They're probably just gamers too. Birds of a feather flock together," Su Tong replied. "From their perspective, you're just a little lamb. You shouldn't get too close to the wolves."
"Do you think we have a chance to become players?" Su Qian asked expectantly.
"Someone like you, if you became a player, you'd probably be torn to pieces in the very first dungeon..." Su Tong thought disdainfully, but said calmly on the surface, "I think so. Song Qingshan said that becoming an evolved being is random, which means everyone has a chance."
"Alright, let's hurry home. We've been missing for so many days, our families must be worried sick. We need to get back quickly and let them know we're safe."
……
"Evolution games are dangerous. The worst thing for players is to get entangled with love-struck individuals, as they are easily implicated and harmed, leading to a drop in IQ. It's best to stay away from them."
On the way to the parking lot, Lu Xining suddenly spoke up for no apparent reason.
Walking beside her, Bai Zhi felt she was being subtly mocked and retorted, "That's not necessarily true, is it? How can someone's IQ suddenly drop? Don't talk nonsense, sister."
"I wasn't talking about you, so don't interfere."
After reminding her sister, Lu Xining continued, "The kind of person I'm talking about with a 'love-struck' mindset is someone who likes a delinquent in middle school, a tutor in high school, a student council member in college, a drill instructor during military training, a driving instructor, a hairdresser, and probably even a lawyer during a divorce. Tell me, what kind of stuff is in the brain of someone like that?"
"Am I out of touch with the way you young people think?" Du Ruo, who was walking behind, said, "Why don't you put it more bluntly?"
"Someone falls for the brother of his sister's classmate, whom he meets on a plane. Don't you think that kind of person is scary?"
Lu Xining looked at Fan Xiao and brainwashed him, saying, "I think it's terrifying. If you get close to this kind of person, you might be influenced by their thinking and your brain might become stupid. It's too scary."
"..." Fan Xiao: "That's enough."
So it turns out it was a veiled criticism of him.
I hadn't realized before that Lu Xining was so possessive.
Did she just give in to her younger sister... or did she simply look down on Su Tong's older sister?
Fan Xiao didn't delve into the matter; after all, he was just a passerby.
The four of them quickly arrived at the parking lot. Lu Xining walked to the side of a white Range Rover and opened the car door.
"Sister, you bought a new car again?"
Lu Baizhi quickly followed, a look of surprise on her face.
She began to whine, "I want to sit in the front. I want to be the first to experience your passenger seat, okay?"
She never held back when facing her own sister.
Lu Xining turned around, glanced at her sister, and didn't expose her little scheme.
She wasn't particular about seating arrangements, so what was wrong with letting Fan Xiao sit in the passenger seat? Her sister actually thought she would try to pull some tricks in this kind of thing; she was really naive!
She was sitting in the passenger seat... She had already let Fan Xiao drive her before, so she naturally wouldn't care about such trivial matters now.
"as you like."
Lu Xining casually replied and then got into the driver's seat.
Fan Xiao and Du Ruo opened the car door and got into the back seat.
Du Ruo said, "Take me to the Special Affairs Bureau branch. I need to go back and report on my work."
Lu Xining nodded slightly.
Fan Xiao glanced at the luxurious interior of the car and asked, "Why buy so many cars?"
"The previous supercar had too little space, so I couldn't fit in."
Lu Xining replied in a cool voice, "This one is bigger, more fun, and it won't be crowded when Bai Zhi comes up."
Fan Xiao: "..."
Well, he shouldn't have asked!
“The space is indeed much bigger,” Lu Baizhi in the passenger seat nodded in agreement. “After I finish the college entrance exam, I’ll get my driver’s license so we can go on road trips to many places. Although we can fly with props, it feels like it takes away a lot of the fun.”
"Your idea... is quite good."
Du Ruo, sitting in the back row, glanced at Fan Xiao, then at the two sisters in the front row, and sensed a tense atmosphere.
No... one side is too naive, so the demons can't rise up.
Gossip!
Such a strong gossip vibe.
So that's what their relationship is like? He had naively thought that Fan Xiao and Lu Xining had broken up... Du Ruo started to imagine some tragic love stories.
Even after arriving at the Special Affairs Bureau branch, he still looked somewhat reluctant to leave.
Before getting out of the car, Du Ruo brought up the important matter with Fan Xiao: "By the way, we are currently investigating the person who plotted against you behind your back. I expect we will be able to give you an explanation soon."
“Okay,” Fan Xiao nodded, “I understand.”
Du Ruo looked at him intently for a few more seconds.
Fan Xiao asked in confusion, "Is there anything else?"
"Are you really clueless or just pretending?" Du Ruo prompted, "What I said just now was twofold: first, to give you instructions, and second, to imply that you shouldn't cause any trouble during this period. Leave everything to the Special Affairs Bureau. We'll take care of those who are plotting against you."
Why do you think I'm up to something?
Fan Xiao said speechlessly, "I just came back from all that trouble abroad. Don't I need to rest? I'll be staying in Ancheng for the time being and won't go anywhere else. I've already said that once."
"Besides, if your Special Affairs Bureau is such a large organization, it still hasn't completed the investigation of all the prisoners. How am I supposed to get intelligence to do something?"
"Furthermore……"
He paused, then pursed his lips and said, "Haven't you seen my file? I'm a law-abiding citizen. From childhood to adulthood, I don't know how many cases I've helped the police solve or how many criminals I've arrested..."
"Alright, alright, I got it," Du Ruo said. "I was just reminding you. I'm leaving now."
