Chapter 122 Pink Lady (18)
Chapter 122 Pink Lady (18)
In the evening, when Ji Xiao was about to rest, the system came back.
"Host, guess what I heard?"
"What? Tell me quickly so I can rest."
"Okay! That Puxin man is going to pay someone to tie you up, and then do this and that to you, and then you'll have to marry him."
"So when is he going to start?"
“He originally planned to take action tonight, but who knew that you didn’t go back, but went directly back to the compound.
But I also found something very interesting!"
"What is it? Tell me."
“I discovered that he had connections with foreign forces, so I crawled over and found out that his father was an orphan who was adopted by people from an island country and then brainwashed into becoming a spy.
However, his father's biological parents were killed by his adoptive father, and he was the only son in the family, so he was given everything he wanted. However, he was a good student, but his current job was a replacement, and he used his position to pass information abroad.
But the good thing is that what he has transmitted so far is not particularly important. He recently learned your specific information from that group of people, so what happened during the day happened. And because you rejected him, they planned to defile you first, then make you marry that traitor, and then brainwash you to provide them with information, so that they can more easily obtain confidential documents. "
"They are definitely not the only ones in this situation, so the people who came to kidnap me could be from overseas organizations, or they could be people who want to fish in troubled waters.
But do you have their specific list? And contact information, code words, etc.? "
"some."
"Okay, print a copy for me and I'll see what to do next."
"Okay, host."
"Well, thank you. Please continue to supervise for me. If you need to spend points, just draw it yourself."
"Okay, thank you host." The system was excited to hear that it could allocate points by itself. After all, the host didn't consume much normally. She had only consumed once in this world, and she had no points left to spend on maintenance.
It’s not that Ji Xiao was stingy, but she really didn’t need it because her innate conditions in this life were too superior, so she only took beauty pills at the beginning and rarely used spiritual spring water.
However, she did eat a lot of vegetables and fruits produced in the space, and the effects were very good, so she usually just improved the family's diet from time to time, or occasionally diluted the spiritual spring water to detoxify them.
After all, everyone in her family was very nice to her. For example, even if her third brother couldn't go home, he would ask someone to bring her gifts on holidays or her birthday.
Whenever her fourth brother has time, he will send her local delicacies or beautiful handicrafts.
Not to mention her second brother, who is still working for him, but she almost forgot to ask him how his second brother is doing.
“Is the system still there?”
"Yes, host."
"Do you know how my second brother is doing?"
"Yes, I stopped by to take a look when I came back. It's going pretty well."
"Okay, thank you."
"you are welcome."
Ji Xiao didn't talk to it, but picked up the list and started reading it.
She discovered that the list included people from all walks of life, and even the military had been infiltrated. Although they were not in important positions, there was no guarantee that they would be promoted someday!
No one could tell for sure, so she didn't go to sleep. Instead, she went to the cloakroom and got a cloak to put on. Because Ji Xiao's mother had been at home for a month, both elders were taken back to the compound, so Ji Xiao picked up the list and went downstairs directly to find her grandfather.
"Knock knock knock..."
"Who's out there?"
"It's me, grandma. I have something to ask grandpa."
"Okay, Xiaoxiao, go to the study and wait for me. I'll be there soon."
"Okay, Grandpa, be careful and take your time. There's no rush."
"Oh, I see."
Ji Xiao did not go to the study first, but went to the kitchen to boil hot water to make tea later, and then cut some fruit.
"Who's in the kitchen?"
"Brother Zhang, I am Ji Xiao."
"Xiaoxiao, you're still awake so late, are you hungry?"
"Well, I have something to discuss with Grandpa tonight, so let's prepare some food first. I don't know how long the discussion will end."
"Okay, do you need help?"
"Not for now, thank you. Brother Zhang, do you know my dad will be back tonight?"
Before Zhang Heng could finish his words, a voice came from outside the door asking, "Xiao Xiao, do you want to see your daddy?"
Ji Xiao heard the voice before she saw the person. She put down the fruit knife, picked up the fruit plate and walked out, while Zhang Heng turned on all the lights in the room.
"Chief, Ah Fei."
"Xiao Zhang hasn't rested yet!"
"Brother Zhang, you haven't rested yet!"
"Well, I just came out on patrol and noticed someone was coming to check out the kitchen."
Ji Xiao put the fruit plate on the dining table and asked, "Dad, you guys are back. Why did big brother come back with dad?"
"My dad and I just met at the door and came in together."
"Are you hungry so late? Do you want me to cook something for you?"
"Xiaoxiao, can you cook it? How about just cook some noodles?"
"I usually cook for myself. Brother Zhang, do you want to eat some too? I'll cook more and you can eat with me."
"Okay, thank you Xiaoxiao."
"Then you guys wait outside, I'll be done soon."
While they were talking, grandpa came out.
"Boss, Ah Fei, you guys are back."
"Dad, why are you up?"
"Yeah, Grandpa."
"Xiao Xiao, come to me if you have something to ask."
Several people sat at the dining table and chatted. Half an hour later, Ji Xiao finished cooking, mainly because the hot water was boiled in advance. Finally, she took out a piece of braised beef from the space and put a little bit of meat, eggs, and vegetables in each bowl. Only she and her grandfather had small bowls, while the other three had large bowls.
"Brother, come and help carry it."
"coming."
Zhang Heng followed in and said, "I'll help too!"
"Yes, Xiaoxiao, thank you for your hard work. Just take the chopsticks."
"Okay, the small bowl is for me and grandpa, and the big bowl is for you three."
Ji Xiao followed behind and walked out with chopsticks and chili oil.
"This is chili oil, you can add it if you need it."
"Well, eat first. We can talk about anything later in the study."
"Well, thank you for your hard work. It's delicious."
"No matter how delicious it is, Dad should eat in moderation. It's already late. When you are home sometime, I will make something else for you."
"understood."
No one spoke anymore. Everyone was working hard. No one knew when they would have their next meal.
*
In the study, Grandpa took a sip of hot water and asked, "Xiaoxiao, do you have anything to say?"
Ji Xiao handed the information in her hand to her grandfather and said, "Grandpa, please take a look at this list first. We can talk about anything later."
"Okay, let me take a look first."
