She stood up, opened the door, and looked at Lan Yu, who was refreshed and had already taken a shower, and asked, "What's wrong?"
Lan Yu bit her lower lip, looking conflicted. "Can I go inside and talk about it?"
“Of course.” Chi Xia opened the door, went back into the room, and sat down on the bed.
Lan Yu followed her into the room, turned around and closed the door, then stood there looking at Chi Xia.
Her fingers kept intertwining and separating, making her look extremely conflicted.
Just as Chi Xia was about to lose her patience, she finally spoke up timidly: "I...I want to ask, how did Captain Chi and Sister Zhang meet, is that alright?"
Having fought against all sorts of scheming women in the Three Thousand Worlds, Chi Xia knew what she wanted to do the moment she opened her mouth.
Chi Xia's acquaintance with Zhang Xin will inevitably drag the three members of the Ye family into the mess, and once the Ye family is involved, a bunch of past events will surely be brought up.
Although Chi Xia's previous job involved dealing with troublesome matters, she was actually someone who particularly disliked trouble. Not only was she afraid of trouble, but she also didn't want to mention the Ye family again.
So she simply looked at Lan Yu quietly and said calmly, "I met her on the way here yesterday. She gave me a ride. What's wrong? Is there a problem?"
"No, nothing's wrong." Lan Yu waved her hand hastily, her flustered appearance almost making Chi Xia think that she had scared her by speaking too loudly.
Lan Yu waved her hand, then started twirling her fingers: "I... I just saw how close you and Sister Zhang were, so I assumed you two knew each other before. After all, even most friends wouldn't be able to accept what Sister Zhang went through, let alone a complete stranger..."
"Oh, that's not what I meant."
As if afraid that Chi Xia might misunderstand Zhang Xin, Lan Yu quickly added, "I hadn't met Sister Zhang before, I only heard some rumors, so I had some misunderstandings about her. But after meeting Sister Zhang today, I think that what you said at the training ground, Captain Chi, is definitely right. Those people must have brought it on themselves!"
The reason it's called "green tea" is because it's a veiled compliment, a derogatory term that seems plausible but is actually derogatory.
If Chi Xia didn't know Zhang Xin's past, Lan Yu's words just now would have been enough to make her question Zhang Xin about what he had done. Then, if Lan Yu said something ambiguous, it would have been easy for her to develop a dislike for Zhang Xin.
But Chi Xia made it clear from the beginning that she knew that Lan Yu's long talk was all in vain.
This green tea is relatively new; it's not from 1982.
Chi Xia had no patience to wait for the green tea to evolve on her own, so she simply pushed her: "What exactly are you trying to say? Is there something wrong with Zhang Xin?"
"Of course Sister Zhang Xin is fine. No matter what she was like in the past, we're teammates now, so we have to trust her!"
After Lan Yu finished speaking with great confidence, she suddenly hesitated, then said, "I'm just a little worried..."
What are you worried about?
Chi Xia just wanted her to finish speaking quickly, as her slow, hesitant manner was unbearable to listen to: "Just say what you have to say. If what you say makes sense, I will definitely listen to and adopt it. Similarly, if what you say is useless, I will also tell you frankly."
Hearing Chi Xia's urging, Lan Yu seemed to have finally mustered up her courage and said in one breath, "I'm just worried that, regardless of whether those people deserved it or not, Sister Zhang has relied on men to get to where she is today. She's so beautiful and a psychic, if she wanted to, all the men in the team would definitely go to protect her. At that time, Ran Zhu and I will need Captain Chi to take good care of us."
"So that's what you were worried about."
Chi Xia smiled and said, "Don't worry, since we're on the same team, we'll definitely look after each other. There's absolutely no situation where someone is only looking after another. As for what you said about her relying on men to get to where she is..."
Chi Xia paused, looked at her, and said, "Aren't you the same?"
