Chapter 564 Good News (1)_1
Xiang Yang took the materials passed over by Situ Xin. Looking at those materials, an idea suddenly flashed through Xiang Yang’s mind, and he seized upon it. "Leader, something just occurred to me. These discs were from one of the individuals you had specifically told us to pay attention to when we received this mission. I’m wondering if this incident could be related to our current assignment?"
When Situ Xin heard Xiang Yang say this, her brows furrowed, and she began to ponder deeply. Knowing that this gesture meant Situ Xin was deep in thought, Xiang Yang and Mei did not disturb her. They went about their own business instead.
Situ Xin, prompted by Xiang Yang’s reminder and linking it to previous events, indeed felt that Xiang Yang’s conjecture was very accurate. However, what Situ Xin could not understand was how that person knew about her identity as the Dark Division Leader. Logically speaking, none of those few individuals had the status to know that she, Situ Xin, was the leader of The Dark Division.
Furthermore, how could those people know about the list that was supposedly on her person? With this thought, a lightbulb went off in Situ Xin’s mind. Her train of thought became clear. "So that’s what it is. The person isn’t targeting me but the entire Situ Family. He thinks the list is with the Situ Family. No wonder."
After clarifying, Situ Xin guessed that if the discs in her possession were indeed the ones she and her family were looking for, then that person would likely use these discs to negotiate with the Situ Family for the exchange of the list.
With that, Situ Xin couldn’t wait to return and check whether those discs were indeed what she was looking for, so she could more accurately infer what those people were after. "Xiang Yang, Mei, I’m heading back first."
"Leader, you’ve just arrived; why are you leaving so soon? We haven’t even had a chance to spend time together." The mood swing of this pregnant woman was instantaneous. Mei, who had been in a fairly good mood just before, now adopted a pitiable expression as soon as she heard Situ Xin was leaving, looking as though Situ Xin had callously abandoned her.
This made Situ Xin’s eyes twitch involuntarily. As for Xiang Yang, he seemed quite used to it, indicative of his frequent experiences of the same in the past.
"Oh, Mei. I have an urgent matter today. How about this: once I’m done with it, I will come visit you," Situ Xin said, knowing all too well that all she could do was to coax the pregnant woman.
Talking, Situ Xin saw that Mei’s pitiable expression hadn’t changed, so she hastily shot Xiang Yang a look for help. Seeing the look from his leader, Xiang Yang couldn’t stand idly by any longer. He coaxed Mei: "Mei, the Leader really does have urgent matters to attend to. Look, if she doesn’t come to see you in a few days, I will take you to find her."
On hearing Xiang Yang’s words, not only did Situ Xin’s eyes start twitching, but the corners of her mouth twitched too. You see, the tone of Xiang Yang’s speech didn’t sound like he was talking to an adult pregnant woman. It was more like he was appeasing a child.
