Chapter 691: Love Rival Is Here?
With this question in mind, Xue Xi walked toward the Internet department.
After taking two steps, she suddenly saw Zheng Zhi walking out hurriedly. He was walking toward the door. The usually inflexible man was actually smiling. His eyes were filled with anticipation as though he was going to welcome his lover.
Xue Xi could not help but raise her eyebrows. Before she could greet him, Zheng Zhi saw her.
Immediately, his expression darkened. “Hmph, Xue Xi, your good days are over.”
That person is back. Let’s see how you can still bewitch Boss!
After saying this baffling sentence, Zheng Zhi quickened his pace and walked past Xue Xi toward the entrance.
Xue Xi: “?”
She stopped in her tracks and turned to look at the door. She wanted to see who the person who was going to come in later was and why it caused such a huge commotion.
Just as she was thinking this, she saw a girl in a white wool dress walk in.
The girl looked gentle and elegant. She was wearing a white wool dress that wrapped around her body beautifully. She was wearing a pair of black boots and looked graceful and proper.
The moment she entered, the rest immediately stood up and shouted, “Sister Yi!”
“Sister Yi is back? We missed you so much!”
“Sister Yi, this mission was beautifully executed! It was simply amazing!”
“…”
The person who was praised nodded and smiled. “You’re too kind.”
Her reply was humble and her expression was calm as though she had not done anything major. This made her seem even more unfathomable.
That’s true. Although this mission was very difficult, what was the big deal as long as Sister Yi relied on her own abilities?
Everyone greeted her and left.
After everyone left, Zheng Zhi revealed himself. When Fang Yi saw him, she smiled. “Xiao Zhi, how have you been recently?”
After being called Xiao Zhi, Zheng Zhi’s face turned red.
He immediately looked around and pretended to be calm as he whispered, “Sister, don’t call me by my nickname.”
Fang Yi smiled. “Why? I even showered you when you were young. Are you shy now?”
Zheng Zhi: “…”
His face turned even redder.
He coughed and said, “You’re finally back. How are you still in the mood to tease me? Don’t you know that Boss has been snatched away?!”
Fang Yi raised an eyebrow. “Mhm, I heard.”
Seeing that she was so calm, Zheng Zhi panicked. “Sister, in our department, the only person who can match up to Boss is you! But look at you. You’re just not anxious. You said that your career is your priority, but now, Boss has been snatched away!”
Zheng Zhi and Fang Yi were orphans of martyrs in the special department. They grew up together in the special department’s orphanage and had the best relationship.
Fang Yi was a year older than Zheng Zhi, so she took care of him when he was young.
Although Zheng Zhi was inflexible, he was very tolerant of Fang Yi.
The reason why he disliked Xue Xi was because she always broke the rules. She had really crossed his bottom line.
But secondly, it was to defend Fang Yi.
Fang Yi and Boss were recognized as a couple.
Fang Yi worked so hard so that she could stand beside Boss one day. In the entire department, the only person who could be placed alongside Boss’s name was Fang Yi.
After all, her special power was very powerful.
Hence, why should an ordinary person like Xue Xi be with Boss first?
When Fang Yi heard Zheng Zhi say this, she did not show any anger on her face. Instead, she said, “Xiao Zhi, Boss is not mine to begin with. How can he be snatched away?”
Zheng Zhi was stunned.
Fang Yi lowered her eyes. “Back then, I felt that I didn’t deserve to stand beside Boss, so I didn’t dare to confess. I thought that when I became formidable one day, I would be closer to him. Moreover, now… it can only be said that we are not fated.”
Zheng Zhi clenched his jaw and could only sigh. He went along with Fang Yi’s words and said, “That’s all we can think about now. However, Sister, don’t worry. That Xue Xi’s superpower is very weak. She can fly just like Jing Fei. We all know how much effort Jing Fei put in to reach P9. Moreover, her mental strength is very poor. She’s even worse than Jing Fei. I think it’s impossible for her to reach P10 in her entire life! Boss will break up with her sooner or later. When that time comes, Boss will still end up being yours!”
Fang Yi smiled. “So that young lady is called Xue Xi. Then which department is she in now?”
Zheng Zhi had a look of disdain. “I brought her along on a mission last time, but she accidentally got injured. Now, I don’t dare to let her join the police force, so I arranged for her to be in the Internet department. At least it’s safe.”
Fang Yi raised an eyebrow. “Speaking of the Internet department, the new member of our special department, X, is here to pay us a visit today, right?”
Zheng Zhi nodded. “Yes.”
Speaking of X, Zheng Zhi had many things to say. “This X was personally arranged for by Boss. As soon as he entered the department, he became a P9. Although I helped apply for it back then, Boss directly agreed. Hence, I reckon that he has an extraordinary background and has a strange personality. He only contacted me through email. He doesn’t speak much. We are all speculating that he is a person with a big temper and is not to be trifled with. I asked the Internet department to find someone to receive him directly. Everyone pushed me and I pushed you. We haven’t chosen anyone yet!”
Fang Yi’s eyes flickered when she heard this. “Then what about Xue Xi?”
Zheng Zhi was stunned. “Sister, you mean…”
Fang Yi smiled. “Yes, let Xue Xi receive him. You guys are a group of men. It’s definitely impossible for you to connect with Mr. X. Xue Xi is a girl, after all, and the opposite sexes attract each other. X might find her easier to talk to.”
