Chapter 279 - 270: Three Updates on the Start of School
Qin Xi finished tidying up and saw three people sitting there in silence, while Old Qi was fiddling with a small black box.
Qin Xi approached, and Xianglu whispered something to him. Qin Xi’s expression changed, and he took the black box from Old Qi, made a gesture towards him after inspecting it.
The old man directly snatched it back, wrapped it in a piece of burlap, and said cheerfully, "A listening device, who knows what it was meant for?" Once it exploded, it would be discarded or taken for examination—nothing worthwhile to listen to.
Mr. Li sighed, "They have already listened in." Xianglu pondered. Grandfather did indeed say a word earlier; what did the other party intend to do, confirm if it’s Grandfather?
Soon, someone came to the door. It was Tian Tian who opened it. A person in uniform arrived and took the exploded device and the listening device.
At this moment, Old Qi was sitting at the table, devouring the second melon, with juice all over his mouth, and Xianglu handed him a napkin helplessly.
He wiped his mouth haphazardly and asked, "What’s for lunch? I feel like eating braised pork?"
Looking at all the melon peels around and Qin Xi’s darkening face, and the curious look on Grandfather’s face, Xianglu sighed, "Alright, braised pork. What else?"
The old man unreservedly rattled off seven or eight dishes, nearly all of them meat, and Xianglu nodded and went to cook.
Due to recent events, Sister Xing had gone home to rest temporarily, planning to return after the situation here was resolved.
