After coming out of Mo Si Huang’s riverside villa, she had always suspected that Mo Si Huang knew where the secret technique was.
Hearing Xuan Ting say that, Su Li knew she guessed right.
Su Li thought for a while, her heart pounding in her chest, and cautiously said to Xuan Ting, "Does Fourth Brother have a way to get that book for ?"
Just as Xu Haohao put the dirty plates into the dishwasher, she walked out of the kitchen and suddenly noticed that the atmosphere in the living room on the first floor was becoming a bit subtle...
Su Li looked at Xuan Ting’s increasingly deepening eyes, feeling more anxious. Would this brother even pay attention to her?
There’s a great chance it’s impossible, after all, he’s probably known Mo Si Huang longer than he’s known her, right?
Xuan Ting reached out, picked up a roasted sweet potato from the table, and broke it in half. The fragrant, sweet, and soft aroma imdiately wafted out, making people subconsciously swallow.
Just as Su Li was about to give up, Xuan Ting lowered his head, took a bite, and mumbled, "Alright, I’ll make a trip to Senior Brother’s villa and sneak the book out for you. Go to sleep."
Xuan Ting thought for a mont. Considering Su Li’s identity, they would all have to listen to her in the future.
No matter how influential Mo Si Huang is, he couldn’t surpass Su Li, so naturally, he had to listen to Su Li.
Moreover, haven’t Su Li’s eyes recovered yet? She should have known already, right?
Besides, Xuan Ting found this Senior Brother quite incomprehensible. Avoidance doesn’t solve problems; Mo Si Huang has to deceive Su Li unless he plans to hide it from her for a lifeti.
Seeing Xuan Ting agree, Su Li was filled with unexpected joy and went upstairs to sleep with satisfaction.
Xu Haohao clicked her tongue in amazent and planned to go upstairs to see what kind of experint Lu Xiaomian was conducting.
Just a step out, a slender big hand suddenly pressed on Xu Haohao’s shoulder, startling her so much that she almost jumped, "What are you doing?"
Xuan Ting, holding the fragrant, sweet, and soft roasted sweet potato in one hand, pressed her against the wall with the other hand with a gentle backward push.
He looked like a sixteen or seventeen-year-old youth, but his grip was incredibly strong, akin to an iron wall, making Xu Haohao unable to move.
Xu Haohao imdiately shouted angrily, "What are you doing? I’m your boss who pays your salary, let go!"
While eating the roasted sweet potato, Xuan Ting’s gaze gradually fell to Xu Haohao’s chest. A look of astonishnt surfaced on his brows, and he raised his hand to reach out.
Amid Xu Haohao’s scream, his slender thumb and forefinger lightly twisted, producing a faint sound of plastic being shattered.
He displayed two rows of white teeth, smiled in Xu Haohao’s shocked gaze, and said, "A listening device."
After speaking, Xuan Ting scurried back to the center of the hall like a little hamster, grabbed the plate of roasted sweet potatoes from the coffee table, and dashed back to his room, as if afraid soone would snatch it from him.
Xu Haohao looked at the ground in shock at the shattered remains of the listening device, now just powder.
Another... another listening device?
The last ti, it was also Xuan Ting who suddenly found and smashed it for her.
For a mont, an indescribable fear sprouted from the depths of Xu Haohao’s being. Who on earth placed it on her? What was the purpose?
As just an ordinary female college student, was there anything worth listening to? Or... was it to monitor soone else?
Xu Haohao shivered, goosebumps erupting all over her body.
Xu Haohao thought fiercely, woe to anyone she caught responsible — she’d definitely smash their head apart!
Thinking this, Xu Haohao went upstairs and saw Su Li standing at the door to Lu Xiaomian’s room, her purple eyes filled with doubt.
