Chapter 173 Is this all you care about?



He Xiao received He Liyu's reply just as he was about to start class.

[Smiling face] Give me a number, as long as you don't harm the hostages.

He Xiao was surprised that Old He would actually cooperate with him, and he felt a mix of bitterness, happiness, and joy.

Then, he sent a photo.

A very cool-looking motorcycle photo.

It all depends on your sincerity [disdainful face]

[Motorcycle?] He Liyu replied: [But you already have one.]

He Xiao pursed his lips, his expression quickly darkening, when another reply came from the other end.

[It's possible, but you need to ensure the safety of the hostages. Can you do that?]

He Xiao's mood visibly brightened from gloomy to sunny. [I guarantee I will complete the mission assigned by the organization! [Salute]]

Looking at the boy's reply and recalling his happy expression, He Liyu was filled with emotion.

So, less than a minute after leaving, Assistant Ji was pulled back into the office by an internal phone call from the president.

"Boss, is there a problem with the document?" Assistant Ji asked nervously.

However, He Liyu placed the phone where he could see it and pointed to the picture on it, asking a question.

Do you recognize the car up there?

Assistant Ji was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously looked over, where a sleek and sharp silver-black motorcycle immediately came into view.

My quick thinking came to a swift conclusion, and I breathed a sigh of relief as a weight was lifted from my shoulders.

"Is this the New Year's gift you chose for the young master?"

The motorcycle that the young master currently owns was one he found; the boss picked it out and paid for it.

Unexpectedly, the boss personally selected the styles this time!

In an instant, Assistant Ji felt a strong sense of crisis again, and quickly thought about whether there was anything he had not done well recently.

The next moment, He Liyu said, "No. But you're right, the New Year is almost here."

As if thinking of something, the corners of his lips slowly curved upwards, and his usually cold and indifferent eyes gradually softened and became more lively.

Assistant Ji witnessed the change in her boss and was filled with surprise and doubt. Was this still the same boss who had no interest in the New Year?

The boss's eyes lit up!

Is it because of that young girl surnamed Lin?

Assistant Ji was overwhelmed with emotion, deeply moved but unsure what to say. She simply replied earnestly, "I'll make the arrangements and send the link to your WeChat shortly."

He paused for a moment and asked, "Would you like me to find some suitable New Year's gifts for you to look at?"

He Liyu slowly shook his head, seemingly still in a good mood.

“No need,” he thought for a moment and asked, “Did you receive an invitation to an auction?”

Assistant Ji: "..." Shocked once again.

Unexpectedly, the president was even willing to attend an auction that he used to look down on, just to prepare a birthday gift for Miss Lin.

"Yes, it's still at my workstation. I'll go get it." Luckily, any later and he would have had to refuse on behalf of his boss.

Assistant Ji breathed a sigh of relief.

He Liyu was very satisfied. "Go and make the arrangements. Thank you for your hard work."

Assistant Ji: "..." She was no longer even slightly surprised. :)

...

He Xiao was in a good mood, and his high spirits lasted until the end of evening classes.

He was still jealous in the afternoon, but after school in the evening, he treated Jiang Zhixing to drinks.

Holding the 'Scream' device, Jiang Zhixing looked at He Xiao with a blank and puzzled expression, pursed his lips, and asked, "Did you drink fake alcohol?"

The drinks weren't expensive, but the fact that He Xiao bought them raised serious questions. If he hadn't seen He Xiao come out of the small supermarket with his own eyes, he would have suspected that He Xiao had drugged them.

He Xiao's smile froze for a moment. He turned around and gritted his teeth, saying, "If you can't speak properly, then please shut up, Jiang."

“Ah Xiao,” Shen Lin Yue was equally puzzled by He Xiao’s mood, and upon hearing He Xiao’s tone, she still reminded him, “Ah Xiao, have you forgotten what I said?”

He Xiao froze, his expression resentful. He just couldn't understand why Ms. Shen wanted him to treat his classmates with politeness and kindness, especially Jiang Zhixing, in the same way.

He didn't understand.

"Okay," He Xiao replied reluctantly.

She didn't look at Jiang Zhixing again, afraid that she would lose control and start arguing with him.

Jiang Zhixing glanced suspiciously at his aunt and nephew, equally puzzled by Lin Yue's meaning. Could it be that Lin Yue had He Xiao be so friendly to him because of his agreement to cooperate today?

"Thank you for the drink, He Xiao," the girl's cheerful voice rang out.

Jiang Zhixing also put away his thoughts, thought for a moment and put away his drink. He looked up at Su Xiao's gentle profile with a smile, and his brows furrowed again.

It's just a bottle of beverage, is it really worth making her so happy?

then.

After the group parted ways at the intersection, Su Xiangxin hummed a little tune in a good mood, followed by the taciturn Jiang Zhixing, and walked all the way to the gate of the courtyard.

After Su Xiangxin opened the door and went in, she didn't see Jiang Zhixing come in. Strangely, she returned to the door and saw his tall figure standing outside, looking up at the moon.

"Squad Leader Jiang, is something on your mind?" Su Xiangxin asked curiously.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Zhixing slowly turned his gaze back to her. "Have I ever given you a gift?"

Su Xiangxin: "?"

She thought about it carefully and hesitated before asking, "Is there?"

Did Jiang Zhixing give her a gift she didn't know about? She couldn't remember.

Jiang Zhixing pursed his thin lips slightly, and his calm, unwavering eyes under the moonlight became even more unfathomable.

"Think about it again?"

Su Xiangxin: "..." She felt that he was trying to cause trouble.

I wonder if he took the wrong medicine tonight.

"What exactly are you trying to say?" Jiang Zhixing is acting strangely tonight; she's never asked her such odd questions before!
