Chapter 593 - Don’t Guess Boss’s Thoughts

Xiang Huai’s face darkened as he strode in under the moonlight.

The office was clearly huge, but when he entered, he still gave off a sense of oppression. It made Zheng Zhi feel as though there was a mountain standing in front of him.

His body stiffened and he instinctively lowered his head.

Jing Fei, whose face had turned red from anger, suddenly jumped up and ran to Xiang Huai. Like an angry little wife, he complained, “Boss, you’re finally back! Old Zheng is too much!”

Xiang Huai’s cold eyes swept across Zheng Zhi with an intimidating aura.

Zheng Zhi felt his entire body freeze as he was stared at.

In the past, when Boss was dealing with enemies, they only felt that it was refreshing and that Boss was formidable. But now, when Boss used this kind of aura to deal with him...

Zheng Zhi felt aggrieved. He lifted his head abruptly. “Boss, although I know you don’t like it, I still have to say...”

He paused.

Because he saw a flash of killing intent in his boss’s eyes.

It was this hostility that made Zheng Zhi feel a chill down his spine. He gulped. “...I want to say that X has been found, but he wants to be a P9. Do you want to check his identity?”

Jing Fei shouted in surprise, “P9? That’s too much! No one has ever entered the special department at P9!”

Zheng Zhi resisted the pressure above his head and explained, “This person’s hacking is indeed very formidable. You guys know about that O, right? He’s a top-notch hacker in the world, but he actually lost to X. I think such a talent has to be one of the best among the espers. It’s not too unacceptable for him to be recruited. It’s just that no one knows his identity yet, so we have to investigate first. If his identity and personality are suitable, we’ll give this rank to him. Boss, look...”

Xiang Huai retracted his sharp gaze and sat down on his office chair. He slowly said, “They’re fine.”

At first, he did not know who X was and thought that Huaxia University had another talent. However, last time, Xue Xi could easily recover the video that Yu Da had deleted. Hence, he realized the little kid’s identity.

Xiang Huai suddenly realized that it was no wonder the little kid had been reading programming books after the college entrance examination. However, in just two months, she had learned it and even became a top expert in the industry.

This was not only because of the learning efficiency.

Xiang Huai lowered his eyes.

His slender fingers tapped on the sofa beside him.

Seeing that he had responded to his words, Zheng Zhi heaved a sigh of relief. “Alright, I’ll contact X and tell him that the P9 application has been accepted. Then, he can work remotely.”

The corners of Jing Fei’s lips twitched again. “Who is this X? He’s so high and mighty, yet he still wants to work from home~”

Zheng Zhi ignored him and quickly said, “Boss, I’ll leave first.”

He then turned around and walked toward the door.

Just as he was about to escape, he heard a deep voice behind him. “Who asked you to leave?”

Zheng Zhi stopped in his tracks and turned around in fear. The man was dressed in black and seemed to have merged with the darkness behind him.

He said calmly, “We were talking about business just now. Now, let’s talk about private matters.”

Zheng Zhi: “!”

He gulped. “B-Boss? How, how are you going to deal with me?”

Xiang Huai slowly stood up and walked toward Zheng Zhi. “What should a normal person do when his girlfriend is humiliated?”

Jing Fei’s eyes lit up. “Fight!”

Zheng Zhi was so frightened that he wanted to run, but someone held his shoulders and he could not break free.

Xiang Huai moved his neck. “I haven’t relaxed my muscles and bones in a long time.”

...

In the special department, crackling sounds were coming from the office in the middle of the night. Jing Fei’s cheers were also mixed in.

The rest of the staff wanted to go over and see what was going on, but just as they walked over, they were stopped by Jing Fei. “Private matters, private matters...”

In the end, Zheng Zhi walked out of the office covered in dust. He felt as though all his muscles and bones had been moved!

Pain!

Too painful!

He was so angry that his eyes turned even colder. Before he left, his boss gave an order. “I see that you’ve been separated from ordinary people for too long. Go to Huaxia University to help the little kid and experience life.”

He actually wanted him to help Xue Xi!

Boss was too much!

However... Boss’s words must be heard, even if it was just a casual sentence and not a mission.

Zheng Zhi took a deep breath.

Forget it.

It was just right for him to go. He wanted to see what kind of charm that vixen had that she could actually conquer Boss!

After Zheng Zhi left, Jing Fei looked at Xiang Huai, who was sitting on a chair and dressed in black, and asked, “Boss, aren’t you afraid that he will play dirty if you ask Zheng Zhi to help Sister Xi?”

Xiang Huai said coldly, “Then he doesn’t deserve to stay in the special department.”

Jing Fei instantly chuckled. “F*ck, I was just casually saying it. This old-fashioned person is just stubborn. He only looks at the rules and regulations. It’s true that I didn’t follow the rules and regulations when Sister Xi came in. That’s why he’s targeting her. It’s fine to let him see how formidable Sister Xi is!”

After saying that, Jing Fei carefully looked at Xiang Huai. “Boss, that... Why must Zheng Zhi acknowledge Sister Xi?”

Boss had always been a person who did things his own way. He did not care about connections in the department and relied on his abilities and strict system.

He never explained anything to others.

Getting a girlfriend was his private matter. He did not need to explain anything to his subordinates, nor did he need to get Sister Xi’s approval.

However, from Canine Teeth to Qian Xin, to him and Zheng Zhi, some people took the initiative to get close to Sister Xi while others were ordered to get close to her.

Jing Fei felt that his boss seemed to want to introduce Sister Xi to everyone and have her acknowledged as a comrade-in-arms.

Last time, during Fang Fang and Yu Da’s incident, the boss must have known that there was a problem with Gu Yunqing. If it were in the past, he would have restored the video and found the real murderer to punish them, even if it was a small matter.

However, this time around, his boss had put in a lot of effort to set up a trap. Although Sister Xi had indeed guessed the truth herself, Jing Fei felt that his boss had done all of this on purpose.

He wanted Sister Xi to conquer that club.

But why?

With Boss around, wouldn’t Sister Xi be able to rest easy? As long as he defended her thoroughly, someone like Zheng Zhi would definitely not dare to be disrespectful to Sister Xi. Would he need so many people to protect her?

At this thought, he looked up at Xiang Huai.

He saw his boss leaning on the chair and not answering his question. Instead, he was staring straight ahead.

...

...

Two days later, Zheng Zhi packed up and planned to go to Huaxia University.

Jing Fei walked over and said mockingly, “After you go, you have to learn more from Sister Xi, right? Although you are an esper, your superpower has nothing to do with scientific research. Go and see how hard it is for those researchers!”

“Those?”

Zheng Zhi sneered and walked out. “Do you think anyone will sign up for her project?”

Jing Fei was stunned. “Huh?”

Zheng Zhi sneered. “The recruitment notice posted by Yu Da is filled with mockery and warnings. Up until now, I haven’t seen a single person applying for the job. I’m going to personally witness it today. This project can’t even recruit everyone. When the time comes, I can laugh at her!”
