Chapter 156: The Illegitimate Daughter (3)_1
"Baibai, don’t be impulsive. I’ll definitely deal with them properly, but not now," Situ Xin revealed a wicked smile at the corner of her mouth.
By the time Situ Xin arrived at the Jia Family residence, it was already late. The conversation between Old Master Jia and Jia Zhengtao was drawing to a close, as heard from Old Master Jia’s words, "Alright, it’s getting late. Let’s stop here for today."
No sooner had Old Master Jia finished speaking than the lights in the room snapped off with a "click," and the room was plunged into darkness.
Situ Xin waited outside until everything inside had quieted down before she and Baibai teleported into Old Master Jia’s study. She took out two espionage devices from her space, casually fixing one to the underside of a bookshelf in the study and attaching the other to the telephone in Old Master Jia’s study.
The device she mounted on the phone had been modified by Situ Xin, even smaller than the previous models, and without the machine she had developed, it was generally impossible to detect the existence of these espionage devices.
After installing the devices, Situ Xin began a meticulous search of Old Master Jia’s study to see if there was any evidence he had left behind. But Old Master Jia was extraordinarily cautious and crafty; aside from books and writing materials, there was nothing else in his study.
Seeing no evidence, Situ Xin felt a twinge of disappointment.
After leaving the Jia residence, Situ Xin didn’t go home but instead went straight to the place where Xia Yujie and Liu Yuxiang lived. These days, Xia Yujie and Liu Yuxiang would only head to the Dragon Society headquarters if there was an urgent matter or if Situ Xin called them to go. Otherwise, they trained at their residence.
Upon seeing Situ Xin, surprise flashed across the faces of Xia Yujie and Liu Yuxiang. "Master, what brings you here?" Liu Yuxiang, when facing Situ Xin, was as simple-minded as ever. However, against Situ Xin, Liu Yuxiang would restrain his cunning nature. When dealing with others, he was not an easy person to handle.
"What, can’t I come?" Situ Xin teased Liu Yuxiang on purpose.
"That’s not what I meant. It’s just that usually, Master, you would call before coming, but today you didn’t, so I was just a little curious," Liu Yuxiang hurriedly explained, fearing that Situ Xin might misunderstand him.
