Chapter 795: Xiang Huai’s Pressure
The moment he said this, a strong killing intent spread.
Xue Xi stood at the side and looked at Xiang Huai.
The first time they met, she had felt a sense of danger from Xiang Huai. At this moment, that sense of danger from this man was exposed again.
He clearly did not have any special power, so how could he make others so afraid?
This must be that legendary type of pressure, right?
Moreover, perhaps the reason Xiang Huai was so confident was because she was beside him!
Fan Dashou was so frightened that he took a step back and hurriedly looked at Xue Xi. “Xixi, I-I really don’t have any ill intentions toward you!”
Xiang Huai did not speak.
Outside the entrance of the orphanage was a deserted and dilapidated street. Other than the three of them, there was no one else.
Fan Dashou gulped again.
At this moment, Xue Xi sighed lightly. “He shouldn’t be a bad person.”
Just these simple words made the thick murderous aura around Xiang Huai dissipate by more than half. Fan Doudou instantly understood how important Xue Xi was to Xiang Huai.
Xiang Huai retracted his aura and slowly said, “I can give you a chance.”
Fan Dashou immediately waved his hand and shook his head with a sigh. “It’s impossible for me to betray them.”
He frowned. “Actually, back then, I had already obtained your permission. Logically speaking, I could live openly. However, when they came looking for me… I owed one of them a huge favor, so I had to do as they said. They asked me to take care of Xixi, so I came.”
Fan Dashou cooked here, but he had actually been outside for the past few years. With the person he had trained in the kitchen, he had ensured the quality of the food. His status in the cooking world had never changed.
He said, “General Xiang, I won’t harm anyone, but I won’t betray them either. So, if you want to get news about them from me, I think it’ll be very difficult.”
Xue Xi sighed.
Uncle Fan had actually been very good to her since she was young. Now that she had encountered such a situation, she indeed did not know what to say.
Just as she was thinking this, she heard Xiang Huai chuckle. His magnetic voice was filled with mockery and understanding. “So it’s really that organization.”
The two of them: “?”
Xue Xi was stunned for a moment before realizing that Fan Dashou’s words had revealed an important piece of information: The person who’d taken care of her so well and kept sending supplies to the orphanage was from that organization!
All of this was caused by that mysterious organization!
However, why did they do this?
Fan Dashou was also stunned. He could not help but smile bitterly. “I still ended up tricked by you. So what do you intend to do with me next?”
What should he do?
Xue Xi then turned to look at Xiang Huai, who slowly said, “The little kid is having a birthday banquet on the sixth day of the new year. Coincidentally, it’s in Bin City, and there aren’t any outstanding chefs there. I’ll leave it to you.”
The two of them: “?”
No, weren’t they talking about a matter of life and death just now? Why did the topic suddenly become a birthday banquet?
The corners of Xue Xi’s lips twitched, but Fan Dashou heaved a sigh of relief. “No problem.”
Fan Dashou understood that he had actually been placed under house arrest by Xiang Huai. However, externally, he had said that he wanted him to serve at a banquet.
He lowered his eyes and wiped the cold sweat on his forehead.
Just now, he had actually deliberately given the information. It could also be considered as giving General Xiang his bottom line: I can tell you that the organization asked me to work here, but it’s impossible to get more information.
Xixi was naive and really thought that he had made a mistake. However, General Xiang understood and accepted his conditions.
These few words had been a life-and-death battle.
Fan Dashou understood that he could keep his life because he had taken care of Xixi for so many years.
Xiang Huai then gave him Xue Xi’s address and said, “See you on the sixth day.”
“Okay.”
Fan Dashou had been released, but the more nonchalant Xiang Huai was, the more it meant that he could not escape from this man.
Fan Dashou suppressed his urge to drive away.
General Xiang had always been decisive. As soon as his car turned around, on the next second, his death would come. It was better to be obedient!
…
After Fan Dashou left, the two of them returned to the dining room. After all, they had yet to finish their meal.
The directress provided some more information, but most of it was useless. After the two of them finished their meal and left, Xue Xi could not help but ask, “Why did you ask Uncle Fan to come to my birthday banquet?”
Xiang Huai chuckled. “Guess. Will that mysterious organization appear during your birthday banquet, do you think?”
Xue Xi frowned. “Why are they so good to me?”
“I know why.”
