Before Li Hui could come up with a definite answer, Qi Xuan, who was struggling with the decision, obviously chose to act like an adult and bought them all.
As the car started, Li Hui had a sudden thought: Could their boss be keeping another woman on the side?
After throwing Li Hui back to the Qi family, Qi Xuan returned to his own company.
He looked at the items he had just ordered on his phone, humming a happy tune as he walked towards his office. Perfect, two items. This way he could find an excuse to give two more "lessons," telling his "gift master" how the pure and adorable white rabbit and the mysterious and proud black rabbit should each perform...
Last time it was a cat, this time it's a rabbit, what will it be next time?
After his mask was suddenly removed that day, Qi Xuan was indeed on guard for a while.
He is not ready to reveal his true identity yet, and the lie about the twins can be easily exposed by asking the Qi family.
He made up a bunch of nonsense that night, but in the end, he still gambled on Lu Wan's soft heart.
This was a very risky move, because the person was sent by his second brother.
Qi Xuan didn't know much about this Mr. Lu, having only met him a few times. But he had an inexplicable certainty that although Mr. Lu appeared cold on the surface, he was quite formidable when he made a move, extremely soft-hearted, and had a natural protective instinct towards the weak.
Qi Xuan's intuition has now been proven true by reality.
It was all for nothing that he pretended to be a pitiful little thing and even made up a story that would move anyone to tears. His Mr. Gift clearly believed his background and didn't even send a message to the Qi family.
Thinking of this, a genuine sense of pleasure appeared in Qi Xuan's eyes.
If Lu Wan still maintains close ties with his second brother, then... he might really have to build a golden cage to protect him properly.
He doesn't like anyone coveting his things...
Qi Xuan took out his phone and opened the contact information for the person whose name was "Gift".
He thought for a moment, then took a screenshot of what he had just bought. A mischievous glint flashed in his eyes, and Qi Xuan flicked his finger to send the picture.
Then, leaning back in his soft leather office chair, he typed out hurried yet sincere sentences in the most relaxed manner:
“Mr. Lu, Mr. Qi somehow found out about what you wore that night… He bought these two more outfits and asked me to deliver them to you.”
A few minutes later, a reply came from the other end.
Gift:?
Looking at the blank question mark, Qi Xuan seemed to see the cold and speechless expression on the other person's face. He chuckled for a while, his hand on his forehead, before continuing to type: "I don't know how Mr. Qi knew either, Mr. Lu, you'd better be careful."
How did we find out? Through surveillance, of course.
With so many cameras in the villa, it's impossible that this Mr. Gift, who's so astute, wouldn't have noticed them.
Qi Xuan wasn't interested in the surveillance, so he might as well point it out to curry favor. In this way, Qi Xuan, played by Li Hui, became the perverted spy, while his poor twin brother naturally became his thoughtful and adorable little helper.
Once again, Qi Xuan used his own position to climb to the top with a blatant display of cunning, yet his conscience felt no pain whatsoever.
He thought for a moment and then said, "Mr. Lu, there's no need to worry. If you don't like it, I'll carefully dispose of the clothes and won't bother you anymore."
As soon as these words were spoken, a line of small text immediately appeared above the chat box: "The other party is typing..."
The message flashed for a while, but no message came from the other end. After a while, it said "The other party is typing..." as if the person on the other end had typed an insult with a cold face, then deleted it one by one with a huff, and then slowly typed a reply they didn't like at all with an impatient expression.
After watching for a while, Qi Xuan couldn't help himself and simply collapsed onto his desk laughing.
It's over.
There was no need for Mr. Gift to put on the clothes; just watching him hesitate between accepting and refusing gave Qi Xuan immense satisfaction.
After typing for quite a while, the other party finally sent a message: "Never mind, just bring it over."
Qi Xuan smiled, just as he had hoped.
She's so soft-hearted, she can't bear to see him punished, so she'll accept things she doesn't like?
Leaning back in his chair, Qi Xuan typed out his reply, word by word: "Okay, wait for me tonight."
-
"Sir, he's implying that you've installed surveillance cameras in your villa!"
"Hmm." Qin Chu sat on the sofa and responded listlessly. His expression was unusually ugly, not because of the surveillance, but because of the two ridiculous outfits that were about to be presented to him.
If Noah hadn't stopped him, he would have quickly made the driver throw the things away.
Qin Chu knew about the surveillance from the beginning, but he knew every surveillance location like the back of his hand, so he didn't care much.
Noah was deeply moved and couldn't help but mutter, "So Zhao Yuan is a good person after all. He even specifically reminded you. I thought..."
Qin Chu didn't react to Noah's words.
In his mind, there are only three categories of people: those he's tasked with, those who pose a threat, and those who pose no threat. Zhao Yuan in this world is clearly the last one.
The sandbags in the basement were torn and hadn't been repaired, but the target wasn't in any real danger.
Qin Chu was a little bored, so he went outside to the balcony to get some fresh air. The villa was located in a high-lying area, so the view was quite good. From the second-floor balcony, he could see a school not far away.
School was just letting out at this time, and Qin Chu could vaguely see figures in blue and white school uniforms happily pouring out of the school.
This school was clearly much better than the first small world Qin Chu had visited. There were no dark streets or alleys, no hooligans, and traffic police would stand guard at the school gate when there was a large flow of people after school.
Qin Chu always had only the mission in mind and rarely retained any other memories.
But perhaps because the name "Zhao Yuan" has been mentioned so frequently lately, he unexpectedly recalled some details from that time. He wondered what that world was like now, whether it had expanded, and what changes had occurred to the data entities living within it.
Gazing at the street scene outside, Qin Chu suddenly asked Noah, "Why did Zhao Yuan run out right after finishing one of his exams? What was he going to do?"
He'd dealt with most of the thugs; they couldn't keep fighting, could they?
Noah: "..." Their superiors are not only thick-skinned in some ways, but also have a long arc.
It's been a whole world since you last thought to ask this question?
However, Qin Chu clearly knew he had asked a pointless question, and without waiting for Noah's answer, he went downstairs on his own.
Just then, the doorbell rang outside the main gate. Qin Chu opened the gate with the remote control, and a moment later, a person wearing a mask came into the living room on the first floor, carrying a beautifully packaged gift box.
Upon seeing the box, Qin Chu's face went even colder, the air conditioning seeming to be on fire as if it were a funeral procession. He took the box, tossed it onto the sofa without even glancing at it, as if looking at it for even a second would blind him.
Seeing his carefully chosen gift treated this way, Qi Xuan sighed inwardly with regret. However, he didn't mention the gift, but instead said worriedly, "Mr. Lu...would you like me to remove the surveillance cameras? At least the ones in the bedroom and bathroom..."
These words were spoken with utmost sincerity, and Qi Xuan gave himself a perfect score for his acting skills.
The young man in front of him was taken aback by the question, but he didn't answer. Instead, he shook his head and said, "Don't worry about it. Let him see if he wants to."
Qi Xuan's smile faltered.
My good mood from the past two days suddenly plummeted.
Should we show it to him if he wants to see it?
Now, the "General Manager Qi" in Mr. Lu's mind is Li Hui. That thing of Li Hui is so pleasing to his eye.
So if Li Hui were to deliver those two sets of clothes today, would he be happy to accept them?
Before Qi Xuan could ask any further questions, Qin Chu, urged by Noah, threw out a question at Qi Xuan: "What are your hobbies or habits, Mr. Qi? Tell me."
Qi Xuan's smile returned to normal, but upon hearing Qin Chu's question, the darkness in his eyes deepened. He spoke slowly, his voice low: "Alright, I will tell you everything you want to know."
"Very good." Qin Chu nodded.
But he didn't sit on the sofa and ask questions like he did last time. Thinking of the scene that day when he was wearing that strange outfit and someone was fluttering around on his head, even though he was usually thick-skinned, General Qin still felt a little uncomfortable.
It's better not to let people see it casually.
Qin Chu raised his chin at Qi Xuan, gesturing for the man to sit with him in a corner of the living room.
Qi Xuan followed without understanding why, until he sat down on a soft chair in the corner, he suddenly realized that this place happened to be a blind spot of the living room's surveillance camera.
The figures are clearly visible, but the actual scene is obscured by a glass cabinet next to them.
Qi Xuan narrowed his eyes. Judging from this... Mr. Lu doesn't seem to really like "President Qi's" spying...
After thinking for a moment, Qi Xuan tried asking again, "Are you sure you don't need me to take the surveillance camera down?"
Qin Chu didn't understand why this person was so fixated on the surveillance footage. He raised an eyebrow and asked with a hint of sarcasm, "You came here and the surveillance footage went black. Do you think that President Qi is an idiot, or do you want to lose your job as a driver?"
Qi Xuan was taken aback.
That Mr. Qi...
This form of address clearly showed a lack of intimacy towards him.
His mood, which had plummeted to rock bottom, suddenly lifted, and Qi Xuan wagged his tail happily once again.
He stared at the young man before him, whose expression remained cold and whose tone was casual, clearly just a casual remark. Yet Qi Xuan couldn't suppress his overwhelming joy.
When you're happy, you tend to get carried away.
Qi Xuan glanced at the box that Qin Chu had tossed on the sofa and asked, "Mr. Lu, what kind of question do you want to ask this time? Would you like to try on the new clothes that President Qi bought?"
Qin Chu looked at him with a puzzled expression: "That guy surnamed Qi isn't here, why should I wear it?"
Qi Xuan: "..."
After a fleeting moment of secret regret, Qi Xuan began to "fabricate" some of his boss's little habits. After thinking for a while, Qi Xuan decisively chose his own habits over Li Hui's:
"When President Qi is in a good mood, his favorite drink is coffee..."
Before he could finish speaking, Qin Chu made a pause gesture, stood up, picked up paper and pen, and then said, "Continue."
They looked as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
"..." Qi Xuan paused for a moment because of his posture before continuing, "Add three sugar cubes, but no milk."
As Qin Chu took notes, he inwardly grumbled, wondering why the three pieces of candy hadn't made him sick of the sweetness.
"Please correct your attitude," Noah reminded him.
Qin Chu continued writing with a cold face: "What if you're in a bad mood?"
"Plain water." Qi Xuan looked at the young man's serious attitude, and a pang of jealousy welled up in his heart again.
Qin Chu asked very detailed questions, from "President Qi's" favorite hairstylist to the color of his favorite socks; from his favorite foods to his preferred clothing brands; and various other details that were hard to recall at the moment, such as the actions his new lover made when he was thinking, and the facial expressions he made when he was down...
Qi Xuan watched as the young man in front of him meticulously recorded all this information as if it were a priceless treasure, his eyes practically overflowing with jealousy.
As a gift, Lu Wan clearly knew nothing about Qi Xuan. The only reason he was so attentive now, after much thought, was that he had taken a liking to Li Hui, whom he had only met a few times…
Qin Chu had no idea that he had become the persona of someone deeply in love with "President Qi". He looked at the newly produced interrogation report in his hand and had Noah enter it into the system.
This thing is much more detailed than the information Noah provided.
After finishing writing, Qin Chu wanted to put the cap back on his ballpoint pen, but he forgot where he had put it. Just as he was about to look for it, a slender hand reached out to him, palm open, and the cap was lying inside.
