All eyes were on Liu Qingqing.
Then Liu Qingqing said, "This is the Radiant Pomegranate, this is the Spirit Sunflower Seeds, and this..."
Liu Qingqing immediately named four or five kinds of spiritual fruits.
"The others may look like ordinary fruits, but whose ordinary fruits contain such abundant spiritual energy?"
Originally, the students of the Dream Star Team had already accepted the premise that Chen Chu was a hidden tycoon in the previous Vast Snow Mountain dungeon.
But what happened today has once again shattered their worldview.
Is this a tycoon?
This guy is incredibly rich!
The fruit served to the guests was actually a magical fruit!
This table of food must be worth at least several million!
"Oh, everyone, don't worry about these details. My uncle is a saint. These are all things he collected from the spiritual realm and grew himself. They're just worthless little things!"
Lu Xiuyu blinked and said, "This one bite of watermelon I took must have cost at least tens of thousands, right?"
Fatty Wang said, "Compared to my pomegranate worth hundreds of thousands, your slice of watermelon is really a worthless trinket!"
These students looked at the spirit fruit and really wanted to eat it.
But in this situation, they had to hold back and not show any impoliteness.
Everyone was incredibly hungry!
Even Xiangxiang and the others were somewhat surprised.
They naturally knew that Chen Chu had a sage behind him.
Unexpectedly, this sage treated Chen Chu so well.
Even the most valuable spiritual fruits were casually offered by Chen Chu to entertain guests.
However, this is enough to show Chen Chu's respect and closeness to them.
If it were an ordinary person, who would offer you such a large sum of spiritual fruit?
Everyone ate the spirit fruit in silence, leaving not even a single peel.
Chen Chu was completely dumbfounded. "Seriously? Are you guys this frugal? Grapes are one thing, but banana peels, dragon fruit peels... no, why don't you even spit out watermelon rinds and seeds?"
Fatty Wang had just taken a bite of half a banana, peel and stem together.
"Well, we're all Spirit Realm players, so we all have good digestion abilities!"
"Yeah, right, Fatty's right!" Qi Dacheng mumbled, "We were just worried about how much trouble it would be for you to clean up..."
Lu Xiuyu affirmed, "Eating grapes without spitting out the grape skins—the old saying must be true!"
Chen Chu sighed, actually thinking that these were just ordinary fruits containing spiritual energy, and there was no need to do this.
However, seeing that everyone else was enjoying their meal just as much, he didn't say anything more.
I could only sigh in my heart.
Fortunately, we haven't started planting durians at home yet...
"Sister Xiangxiang, Chen Chu is in the Ministry of State Security, are you the closest to him?"
Just then, Zhang Xiaotuan suddenly looked at Xiangxiang beside her and asked with a cute expression.
"fine!"
Xiangxiang said something subconsciously, but then suddenly remembered Chen Chu's instructions and continued.
"Chen Chu has a very good relationship with everyone in our department."
“I think Chen Chu must be closest to Xiangxiang, otherwise he wouldn’t often talk about you in front of me.”
Zhang Xiaotuan deliberately kept everyone in suspense.
Xiangxiang asked again, almost subconsciously.
"Chen Chu, what did he say about me?"
Zhang Xiaotuan continued with a cute expression, "Chen Chu often says at home, 'Sister Xiangxiang, you are the most beautiful, and you are also generous and take care of new colleagues. If only I had a girlfriend like Sister Xiangxiang.'"
"He's satisfied with his life!"
puff!
Chen Chu spat out the pomegranate-like substance that was in his mouth.
The students felt very sorry for him.
This is a genuine spiritual fruit, worth hundreds of thousands of coins in one bite, and you just spat it out like that?
"Haha, really? Oh dear, Chen Chu was just making things up. I'm not that good!"
A satisfied smile appeared on Xiangxiang's face as she glanced at Chen Chu.
"It's true, our Chen Chu really seems to like Sister Xiangxiang!"
Zhang Xiaotuan persisted, continuing her explanation.
Sister Xiangxiang waved her hand with a smile, "Chen Chu is just new to the Ministry of Security. I'll take care of him. It's not that good. Don't listen to him."
Although that's what she said, Xiangxiang clearly enjoyed it very much.
Liu Qingqing glanced at Chen Chu, her eyes seeming to hold a sharp edge.
However, she was still smiling when she looked at Xiangxiang.
"Xiangxiang, Chen Chu is in the security department. I'm so sorry to have troubled you! As his older sister, all I can do is look after him at school."
"Don't mention it. Chen Chu is such an excellent colleague, and he has helped me solve a lot of troubles."
Xiangxiang seemed not to have seen through the current situation yet. "Every time I take Chen Chu out on duty, it is the most relaxed time for me. He really doesn't seem like a newcomer."
Zhang Xiaotuan narrowed her eyes, her gaze towards Chen Chu filled with hostility. "It must be very tiring accompanying Sister Xiangxiang on duty, right? Sister Xiangxiang praised you so much, why don't you hurry up and thank her!"
The last words seemed to have been forced out from between his teeth.
Liu Qingqing's eyes were filled with murderous intent.
"That's right, Chen Chu. Xiangxiang praised you so much, you should treat her to a meal to thank her properly later."
Chen Chu felt that his back was completely soaked.
I had no choice but to bite the bullet and say it.
"Thank you, Sister Xiangxiang. Thanks to your care, I was able to adapt to the work of the Security Department so quickly. But I also want to thank Captain He and Xiucai."
"No need to be so polite, we're all colleagues, like family!" The scholar waved his hand with a smile, indicating that it didn't matter.
Team Leader He remained silent.
"Even if we're family, we should still thank each other, right?" Zhang Xiaotuan smiled, her eyes narrowed.
"Chen Chu, you mustn't forget that you're all family, so there's no need for formalities."
Seeing Zhang Xiaotuan's reaction, Xiangxiang belatedly realized what was going on.
Is Zhang Xiaotuan jealous?
Xiangxiang quickly realized what was happening.
"Xiao Tuan, no need for thanks. Chen Chu helped our team arrest a lot of suspects. He even monitored those criminals every night, which greatly improved our team's performance. We should be thanking him!"
"Really?" Zhang Xiaotuan asked, somewhat surprised. "Chen Chu has made many contributions?"
Sister Xiangxiang said confidently, "Of course, headquarters even gave him two high-quality items. Isn't that enough proof?"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Xiaotuan felt a slight sense of relief.
Even Liu Qingqing felt relieved.
It seems that Chen Chu's praise wasn't just because he was favored by Xiangxiang, but because he was genuinely working hard.
That's good, that's good!
At that moment, Zhang Xiaotuan and Liu Qingqing even subconsciously exchanged a glance, both revealing relaxed expressions.
But after that eye contact, for some reason, the two of them suddenly became wary of each other.
The same thought involuntarily echoed in their minds.
"Could it be that she also likes Chen Chu?"
