Chapter 122, Si Xu is my prey
When the two arrived at the cafeteria, not many people were eating there. Warm lights poured down, and the air was filled with the aroma of food, making people's appetites whet.
Jiang Ran sipped her lips and vaguely heard the protesting sound of her stomach.
Led by Si Xu to an empty seat, she sat down obediently, holding her chin and waiting for Si Xu to come back with the food.
Si Xu walked around the window, then quickly returned to Jiang Ran. Under the girl's puzzled gaze, he held out his hand: "Give me your ID card."
"Ah?" Jiang Ran took out his ID card and placed it in the young man's palm. "Si Xu, do you have any more braised fish?"
"Yes." Si Xu touched her head. "Wait a minute, I'll go buy some—is there anything else you want to eat?"
Jiang Ran thought about it and shook his head: "I just want to eat braised fish."
Si Xu took her ID card and went to order food.
It was not until the man went to the window to swipe his card that Jiang Ran remembered that Si Xu had transferred all the points, including the points registration system, to her name. No wonder he had gone to check it out and came back again.
The girl hesitated. If the points were registered to her, it would be inconvenient for him to move around the base. Should she find a way to transfer them back to him at the administrative hall? But would he get angry if she did? After all, her husband had a fragile heart.
…
At the entrance of the cafeteria, Wei Yage met Pei Xiao and Shen Yao who came to eat together. After nodding slightly to them, he walked into the cafeteria.
"Captain Wei." Seeing the girl's cold expression, Pei Xiao called out to her, "Wait a moment."
Wei Yage stopped and turned to look at him: "Captain Pei, what's the matter?"
Whispering to Chen Yao to go in and wait for him, Pei Xiao looked at Wei Yage: "I have something I want to discuss with Captain Wei. I wonder if Captain Wei has time?"
Wei Yage glanced at his watch and said calmly, "Three minutes."
Pei Xiao nodded: "Just one minute, just a few words."
Wei Yage followed the man to the flower bed on the side of the road.
Wei Yage stopped after walking around the flower bed and behind the tall tree trunks and entering the shadows beyond the reach of the light.
"Captain Pei," she said coldly, "If you have anything to say, please talk about it here."
Pei Xiao had no objection. He stared at the girl's expressionless face and smiled slightly: "Captain Wei likes Si Xu?"
Many people in the base knew about this, but ever since Jiang Ranran came into Si Xu's life, no one dared to mention it in front of her.
Pei Xiao's tone was relaxed, sounding like a casual joke, but Wei Yage couldn't figure out his intention, so she didn't answer immediately. Instead, she asked, "Why is Captain Pei suddenly concerned about this?"
As if he didn't notice her displeasure, Pei Xiao shrugged and said in a nonchalant tone, "I'm curious, so I'm asking."
Wei Yage was amused by his nonchalant attitude. "Captain Pei, you're so bored. If you have this extra time, you should think about how to avenge your sister who passed away so young."
Pei Xiao remained indifferent: "I will, thanks for the reminder."
When people other than Si Xu mentioned Pei Wan'er, no matter good or bad, he could maintain the necessary calmness and restraint.
"I've listened to Captain Wei's reminder. Captain Wei can finally answer my questions?"
Wei Yage naturally would not answer such a boring question.
She turned to leave.
"Wei Ya Ge." Pei Xiao called her name, not caring whether she heard him or responded. He muttered to himself, his voice neither loud nor soft. "I know the members of your Sixth Team are trying to find out about Si Xu. Tell me, if I tell Si Xu this news, what will he do to you? And what will he do to the Sixth Team?"
Wei Yage stopped.
Her body was stretched straight, her hands clenched into fists, her shoulders trembling slightly, whether out of anger or fear.
After a moment of silence, the girl didn't turn around and asked in a low voice: "Pei Xiao, what do you want?"
"I don't want to do anything." Pei Xiao walked over to her. "I just want to tell you that Si Xu is my prey. Even if he has to die, it can only die at my hands. If he is schemed by a woman like you who turns love into hate, I will be very troubled."
"...Are you kidding?" Wei Yage turned to look at him, her eyes burning with anger. "Pei Xiao, are you defending Si Xu? If I remember correctly, he's also one of Wan'er's murderers, right?"
"Tsk tsk, women are truly terrifying." Ignoring Wei Yage's questioning, Pei Xiao put one hand in his pocket, kicked the stone at his feet, and sighed, "Look at you, you keep saying you like him, but you insist on causing trouble for him and can't bear to see him do anything good... Hey, if I were Si Xu, I wouldn't like you either."
"Pei Xiao!"
"That's all I have to say." Pei Xiao interrupted the woman's roar with a smile, his eyes narrowed. "Wei Ya Ge, you'd better behave yourself and don't steal my prey, otherwise, I will make you die miserably."
After the man finished speaking, he turned around and walked leisurely towards the cafeteria, leaving her standing there alone, looking at his back, wishing she could poke a hole in him with her eyes.
…
Team Six is inquiring about something related to Si Xu? When Wei Ya Ge first heard this news, she was briefly surprised.
This was something she was completely unaware of.
She had never given such an order to her team members. She was very clear about the consequences of such an action if it was discovered by Si Xu.
How could she possibly offend Si Xu in such an obvious way? She wasn't stupid.
But, someone like Pei Xiao would not come and question her without any evidence.
The members of Team Six were asking about Si Xu? Who gave them the order? Why were they doing this?
Thinking of a possibility, the woman who had lost her appetite left the cafeteria and walked towards the Military Control Building.
At this point, many members of the Sixth Team should still be in the Military Control Building.
…
Walking into the cafeteria, Pei Xiao saw Shen Yao sitting next to Jiang Ran and waving at her. He looked at the man opposite the two girls and silently walked over to sit opposite Shen Yao.
"You like beef, and I can choose other dishes. If you don't want to eat them, you can give them to me." Shen Yao pushed the plate in front of him and continued eating. "Don't thank me. I'm always willing to help others."
"Thanks."
Jiang Ran, who had almost finished eating, put down his chopsticks, looked at the plate between the two of them, and asked curiously: "Sister Yaoyao, you and Captain Pei..."
"No, no, it's impossible." Hearing what she wanted to ask, Chen Yao replied directly, "To me, this guy is like a buddy who grew up wearing the same shorts. Maybe even if all men died in the world, I wouldn't have the desire to fall in love with him."
Jiang Ran: “…”
Pei Xiao hummed, "Yes, she's my buddy, a pure buddy without any romantic feelings."
Jiang Ran: “…Oh.”
Since the two of them expressed it so clearly, Jiang Ran naturally tactfully stopped asking questions.
Across from him, Si Xu saw the girl's disappointed expression, glanced at Chen Yao, and said casually, "Chen Yao doesn't like Pei Xiao. She likes pretty guys like Qin Huai."
Qin Huai? Fortunately, Jiang Ran didn't drink the soup, otherwise he would have spit it out.
Is this the Qin Huai she knew? Shen Yao actually liked Qin Huai? How could she possibly like Qin Huai? That kind of ruthless villain who kills without blinking an eye...
On second thought, Si Xu was also a villain, and she liked him very much, so she didn't think it was strange.
Unlike Jiang Ran's complicated psychological activities, Chen Yao simply choked on a mouthful of rice.
"I like Qin Huai?" After finally swallowing the rice stuck in her throat, Chen Yao glared at Si Xu, "Seventh Brother, don't talk nonsense! I haven't even seen Qin Huai, how can I like him?"
