Chapter 165, Take Refuge
After parting with Jiang Ran, Qiao Qiao returned to the apartment. Thinking about the work Jiang Ran had assigned to her, she thought for a moment and knocked on Xue Weixin's door.
It was Lin You who opened the door. Seeing her, she glanced behind her in confusion: "Qiao Qiao, didn't you go look for Xiao Yi?"
Qiao Qiao didn't enter the room and asked Lin You: "Sister Youzi, is the captain here?"
"Him? He's not in the room." Lin You recalled the conversation she vaguely overheard. "It seems like someone wants to discuss something with him. He might be in the study."
"Oh." On the day off, the team members all went out to have fun, but the captain still had to work. It was really pitiful.
"I'll go to the study and discuss something important with him."
After saying this, Qiao Qiao quickly went to the study.
Before she could knock on the door, the study door was opened and Jiang Yu walked out first. When he saw Qiao Qiao, a hint of malice flashed across his gloomy face. He opened the door and walked out without looking back.
"What the hell..." Qiao Qiao, inexplicably angered by the man, gave him a middle finger as he left and went into the study. "Captain."
Xue Weixin leaned on the sofa, rubbing his brows. Hearing footsteps, he turned around and glanced at the girl who came in: "Qiao Qiao, Qiao Yi still refuses to come back?"
The young and frivolous kid left the team at the slightest disagreement, became famous outside, and was even more reluctant to come back.
Xue Weixin felt like he was facing his own naughty child. He was very troubled, but there was nothing he could do about him.
"It's not that he doesn't want to come back..." Qiao Qiao sighed, "I haven't even seen my brother."
"Huh?" Didn't see him? That bastard Qiao Yi had always been resentful towards him, and now even his own sister was missing? That couldn't be possible.
"The base's special ability team has surrounded the slums." Qiao Qiao briefly explained her experience and repeated Jiang Ran's words. "Captain, I said Luo Rui is not a good person. It turns out to be true!"
The little girl said this angrily, her eyes wide open and full of rage.
"Fortunately, she left our team early, otherwise she would have definitely dragged down our entire team."
After hearing the whole story, Xue Weixin didn't express his opinion: "Just follow Miss Jiang's arrangements."
"I know. I'm going to report the situation to you, Captain." Qiao Qiao said with a smile, and then asked, "What happened to Jiang Yu just now? The way he looked at me when he left was as if I had killed his entire family."
Speaking of the young man who had left, Xue Weixin sneered, his eyes full of sarcasm: "He came to instigate me to join the Sixth Team, but I refused."
"Join the Sixth Team?" You're kidding. If they were to return to the Special Ability Team, they'd go back to the First Team. Who would want to go to the Sixth Team? It would be a drop in their value.
"Wei Yage is seriously injured. Luo Rui and Xie Chengzhi are now in charge of Team Six."
"Huh?" Qiao Qiao was so angry that she jumped up and down. "What does that guy mean? Our team has been providing him with food and drink for so long, why is he always thinking of harming us?!"
Although Jiang Yu was originally a member of Luo Rui's team, Xue Weixin had been quite considerate of him since he joined. However, due to his arm injury, Xue Weixin would not assign him to any dangerous missions.
As a result, that guy not only had no gratitude towards the team, but also instigated Xue Weixin to join Luo Rui's team even though Xue Weixin clearly stated that he would not join the Superpower Team.
Luo Rui's team...isn't that equivalent to joining the Shen family?
Qiao Qiao was sure that he just wanted to kill them.
"Maybe he thinks joining the base's special ability team would be a good thing for us." Xue Weixin felt tired and stood up with his water cup. "I've already rejected it. Jiang Yu is going to follow Xie Chengzhi and will no longer be a member of our team. Remember to tell the other teammates this news."
She had long disliked the lecherous man, and his departure was exactly what she wanted. Qiao Qiao happily agreed: "Then I'll go to the slums first?"
"Um."
…
When he saw Qiao Qiao again, the psychic guarding the door remembered Luo Rui's instructions, asked her a few routine questions, and let her in.
After politely thanking him, Qiao Qiao skipped into the slums.
In the corner, Luo Rui took off her sunglasses and walked out slowly: "Arrange someone to follow that girl."
"yes."
…
After waiting for about half an hour, Qiao Qiao came out of the slums, greeted the psychic at the door, and left humming a song.
After the girl walked away, the psychic who followed her stuck his head out. After making sure that the girl didn't notice him, the man returned to where Luo Rui was waiting.
"Where did she go? Who did she meet?"
"In the sixth cabin at the northernmost end of the slum, I met a man named Qiao Yi. From the tone of their conversation, it seemed that Qiao Yi was her brother."
"Brother? What else did they talk about?"
"The girl mentioned Professor Si and told her brother to be careful. The rest was just a reminiscence of the past."
Luo Rui pondered for a moment: "Don't tell anyone else about what happened just now, including Shen Shuai, understand?"
The man nodded: "I know."
…
Thinking about the possible relationship between Qiao Yi and Jiang Ran, Luo Rui returned to the apartment and vaguely heard voices coming from inside.
Feeling that the man's voice sounded familiar, Luo Rui deliberately increased the volume of her footsteps and walked into the living room.
The man sitting on the sofa chatting with Xie Chengzhi looked at her and greeted her familiarly: "Hey, Captain Luo."
Jiang Yu... didn't have a good impression of men. Luo Rui frowned, then quickly smiled: "Jiang Yu, why are you here?"
Ask him why he came? The two of them have been rising step by step with Coach Shen, but have they ever thought about him, their former teammate and friend?
Jiang Yu was angry in his heart, but he put on an almost flattering smile on his face: "You haven't been home for a long time, so I thought of coming to see you."
After saying that, he looked at Xie Chengzhi hesitantly.
Receiving his friend's pleading look, Xie Chengzhi said, "Ruirui, Jiang Yu wants to join the Sixth Team. Can you see what position he can be assigned to?"
It wasn't a discussion, it was a decision that had already been made and she was directly notified.
The smile on Luo Rui's lips disappeared, and her cold eyes stared at Xie Chengzhi, making the man feel a little uncomfortable. She suddenly looked away and smiled slightly: "The sixth team is now full..."
Before he finished speaking, Jiang Yu's face darkened.
Xie Chengzhi also looked embarrassed.
"I'll make some adjustments first, and then see where I can place Jiang Yu." She spoke slowly, observing the changes in the man's expression, and said with a cold smile, "The situation at the base is quite complicated right now, and we just took over the Sixth Team. Having someone close to us will give us peace of mind when we do things."
Understanding the girl's meaning, Jiang Yu immediately patted his chest and assured: "We are brothers who share life and death. You can rest assured and leave the work to me!"
She saw what kind of person this guy was, much more clearly than Xie Chengzhi along the way.
Not taking the man's assurance seriously, Luo Rui smiled gently and said, "We are teammates. Of course I trust you more than an outsider."
Xie Chengzhi was still worried that Luo Rui would be unhappy at first, but now seeing the two of them talking and laughing, he felt relieved. He stood up, shook Jun Ruifu's hand, and said softly: "Jiang Yu is here, let's have dinner together tonight."
Pulling her hand away indifferently, Luo Rui said calmly, "I have things to do. You guys go eat."
After the girl finished speaking, she turned and went into the study, leaving Xie Chengzhi standing there, tightening his fingers awkwardly.
