After Xie Qi got out of the car, he looked up at the night sky. Stars were twinkling in it, but the quiet light could not dispel the silence brought by the night.
Then he took a step forward and walked towards Wen Ze's house.
In the silent night, it seemed as if the whole world had fallen asleep, and only Xie Qi's steady and powerful footsteps echoed one after another in the empty streets.
At this moment, Xie Qi's originally steady pace suddenly stopped, and his low and serious voice abruptly broke the silence: "948..."
The sound was not loud, but it was particularly clear in the quiet atmosphere, as if it could penetrate the darkness and reach people's hearts.
However, the surroundings remained silent, and no response came. Xie Qi frowned slightly, a hint of dissatisfaction flashing in his eyes.
After a moment of silence, he spoke again, his tone even harsher than before: "If you don't come out now, don't come out later!"
Finally, not long after Xie Qi finished speaking, 948 came out of the space.
Xie Qi saw 948 emerge and continued forward. He said expressionlessly as he walked, "Now it's your turn to explain."
Hearing Xie Qi's words, 948 couldn't help but tremble slightly, obviously feeling a little guilty.
He hesitated for a moment, then whispered, "Host, I'm sorry... I seem to have missed a part of the plot. It was just a side story, not the main story, so I was careless and didn't see it."
After hearing 948's explanation, Xie Qi shook his head helplessly and rubbed his brow. He looked at 948 in front of him and asked with a hint of suspicion, "How could the plot be transmitted less? Are you really a first-generation system? How could you make such a low-level mistake?"
Hearing Xie Qi's words, 948's mood suddenly darkened. He lowered his head slightly and said slowly in a voice so low that only he could hear it, "It was like that before, but not anymore."
Xie Qi asked with a puzzled look on his face: "What the hell? You were laid off?"
948 shook his head slightly and replied with a slightly helpless tone, "No, my authority was restricted, so I was downgraded."
Xie Qi frowned slightly, then asked, "Is it because of me?"
However, after Xie Qi asked this question, 948 remained silent. But from his dejected expression, Xie Qi already understood.
He sighed deeply, then said softly, "Just pass that part of the story to me first."
948 nodded silently and replied, "Okay."
Soon, the extra storylines flooded into Xie Qi's mind like a tide. As he understood each of these stories, Xie Qi finally became convinced that everything Xie Luo said was true.
So now their main targets are Xie Xile and Tao Yuchun.
Xie Qi stretched out his finger and clicked on the elevator door. With a soft "ding" sound, the elevator door slowly opened.
After entering the elevator, Xie Qi's eyes fell on 948, who was standing aside with his head down and looking obviously depressed.
He sighed, slowly raised his hand, and placed 948 in his palm. Then, he stroked 948's head with his right hand and said softly, "Don't be sad. I don't blame you. After all, it was me who got you into trouble."
Hearing Xie Qi's words, 948 shook his head and said, "It's not the host's fault? This time it is indeed my fault..."
Before 948 could finish his words, Xie Qi interrupted him: "Alright, let's not talk nonsense. Just be more careful next time. Once we complete all our tasks, we'll go back together."
"good."
At this moment, the elevator made another "ding" sound to indicate that he had arrived at the floor where Wen Ze's family lived.
When they arrived at Wen Ze's house, Xie Qi ended his conversation with 948.
It was already ten o'clock in the evening. Xie Qi wondered in his heart whether Wen Ze was asleep at this time.
He stretched out his finger and carefully entered the password that Wen Ze had told him in advance. With a slight "click", the door lock opened.
When the door slowly opened, a bright light poured out from the crack, illuminating the ground under Xie Qi's feet. It also indicated that Wen Ze was waiting for him.
Xie Qi closed the door and walked into the room step by step. He walked through the entrance and into the living room, and his eyes were immediately attracted by the figure sitting on the sofa, watching TV intently.
Wen Ze seemed to notice the movement behind him and turned his head slightly.
Wen Ze raised a gentle smile and said softly, "I left some food for you..." These few simple words were like a warm current flowing into Xie Qi's heart.
Xie Qi's pace quickened involuntarily. He walked to Wen Ze's side, opened his arms, and hugged him tightly.
Wen Ze's body stiffened slightly at first, but soon relaxed and let Xie Qi hug him like this.
Xie Qi gently rested his head on Wen Ze's shoulder, feeling the warmth coming from him, and asked, "It's so late, why aren't you asleep yet?"
Wen Ze raised his hand, ruffled Xie Qi's hair, and replied, "I slept too much during the day, so I'm not sleepy now."
Then, as if he suddenly remembered something important, he added, "By the way, did you encounter any trouble after returning home today?"
Hearing this, Xie Qi slowly raised his head and looked straight at Wen Ze's handsome face. After a moment, he said, "I already know about your cooperation with Xie Luo."
After he finished speaking, Wen Ze's expression froze for a moment, and it took him a while to come back to his senses. He remained silent, just staring at Xie Qi quietly, as if trying to see through his eyes to see his true thoughts deep in his heart.
