Because he was partnered with Su He, Hu Xing's task during this period was to contact her and try not to get involved in other cases, so he always put her first.
After finishing his meal and explaining everything, Hu Xing was about to leave. He planned to take the afternoon "train" back to Shanghai, and this was also to avoid him seeing too many people and being recognized.
So after they ate and rested for a while, Su He saw him off.
On her way back after seeing Hu Xing off, she saw Sister Liu and several other women carrying things back. As soon as they saw her, they greeted her warmly.
"Hey, where have you been all this time, Xiao Hu?"
Su He smiled at her, "I just went to see my younger brother off."
"Oh, he's already gone? Why didn't he stay a few more days?"
“He still has a job at home. He managed to get a few days off from work because he brought me here. If he doesn’t leave now, he won’t be able to go back to work in time.”
"I see, that must have been quite an achievement."
Then she introduced him to the others: "This is Xiao Ji's partner, Hu Mei. She just arrived today."
Then he introduced Su He to the other family members on our floor: "This is your sister-in-law Lin, sister-in-law Yu, and sister-in-law Wang."
Su He smiled and greeted them, "Hello, Sister-in-law Lin, Sister-in-law Yu, Sister-in-law Wang."
The women in her harem all had nice personalities and greeted her with smiles.
"Oh, it's Xiao Ji's wife! Welcome, welcome!"
"Wow, she's so beautiful! She and Xiao Ji are such a perfect match!"
"Your belly is quite big, you must be about to give birth."
Su He smiled sheepishly after hearing this, "No, I'm only six months pregnant. My belly is a bit bigger because it's twins."
Everyone was taken aback by these words.
"Wow, twins! You two are so lucky to have two children at once!"
I heard that Xiao Ji has been married for three years, and she must be overjoyed to suddenly have two children. No wonder she seemed to be in a good mood recently…
Su He smiled but didn't say anything, finding it amusing that other people's good mood had nothing to do with her.
To stop people from talking about it, Su He took the initiative to ask, "Where did you ladies go? Did you go shopping?"
Otherwise, why would everyone be carrying a bag?
Upon hearing this, Sister Liu explained, "Yes, these days, people aren't allowed to enter or leave our residential compound unless it's something important. We can only ask the logistics staff to help us buy groceries. We just went to the logistics staff to pick up our groceries."
"ah?"
After hearing this, Su He pretended not to know and asked, "Why can't we go out? Is the management here so strict? I was originally planning to go out and buy some things for childbirth in a few days while I'm still not too far along in my pregnancy."
Upon hearing this, Sister Liu explained, "We used to be allowed to go out, but there was an incident in our residential compound a while ago, so they've tightened the rules. If you want to buy something, you can ask the logistics staff to bring it to you. I guess you won't be allowed to go out for a while."
Hearing this, Su He pretended not to know and asked curiously, "What happened? It looks pretty serious!"
"yes."
Seeing her interest, Sister Liu leaned closer and whispered to her, "I heard there's a traitor in our residential compound who stole the research institute's data and sent it out!"
"ah?"
Su He feigned surprise upon hearing this, "This...really? Is it that serious?"
Aunt Liu nodded with a troubled expression. "It's true! We investigated every household a while ago, but no one expected there could be a traitor in such a small courtyard!"
