Chapter 188 What is your real purpose?
So, she deliberately said with a choked voice: "I have nowhere to go. I was kicked out. Now I am really confused and don't know what to do next."
A trace of surprise and sympathy flashed in Xia Yi's eyes. He was silent for a moment, then asked softly: "Then...are you willing to go back with me temporarily? I live upstairs."
Leng Yuexin looked up at Xia Yi, nodded, and responded with a smile: "Okay, thank you for taking me in."
Stepping into Unit A1 on the third floor again, Leng Yuexin couldn't help but recall the first day she came from the book. At that time, she was in a mess and fled everywhere. Thinking back now, she couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Xia Yi heard the laughter and turned to look at Leng Yuexin, his eyes full of curiosity: "What are you laughing at? You look like you are in a good mood."
Leng Yuexin realized her own loss of composure and quickly pursed her lips, trying to make herself look calm: "Nothing, I just remembered some things from the past and found them quite interesting."
Xia Yi nodded slightly to show his understanding, and said, "Then you sit for a while, I'll go change my clothes." After that, he turned and walked into the bedroom.
Leng Yuexin took the opportunity to sneak into the kitchen and opened the refrigerator. Sure enough, the two cans of drinks mixed with coma drugs were still lying there quietly.
She decisively poured the entire drink into the sink, flushing away the dangerous liquid.
She then returned to the living room with two empty bottles and deliberately placed them in a conspicuous place.
Xia Yi changed into home clothes and came out. Seeing two empty beverage bottles on the table, he couldn't help but feel a little confused.
Leng Yuexin lowered her head pretending to be a little embarrassed, her voice slightly awkward: "Well... I was really thirsty just now, so... I drank it all."
Xia Yi looked at her, shook his head slightly, and smiled: "It doesn't matter, as long as you like it."
Leng Yuexin suddenly stood up and made an excuse: "I just contacted my friend and now I'm going to stay at her house. Thank you very much for your help."
Xia Yi's smile remained, but there was a bit of scrutiny in his eyes. He didn't say anything, but just quietly observed Leng Yuexin. This silence made Leng Yuexin feel a little uneasy.
When she turned around to leave, suddenly, a pair of cold handcuffs tightly handcuffed her hands.
Leng Yuexin turned back in astonishment, her voice full of confusion: "You...what are you doing?"
Xia Yi did not answer, but pulled Leng Yuexin to the sofa and began to search her body carefully.
After a while, a pile of medicine and the stun gun were found.
Xia Yi stared at Leng Yuexin coldly, his voice becoming serious and low: "Who are you? What is your purpose in approaching me?"
Leng Yuexin sighed slightly, trying to make herself look sincere: "I was sent by my superior to assist you. According to intelligence, the drinks in your home were mixed with coma drugs. In order not to alert the enemy, my superior sent me to deal with it secretly."
After hearing this, Xia Yi took out a piece of test paper from the drawer and dipped it in the drink residue for testing.
The test strip quickly showed a positive result, proving that the drink did contain the inducing drug.
However, Xia Yi did not completely believe Leng Yuexin. He sat beside her and stared at her with eyes that seemed to be able to see through people's hearts.
Leng Yuexin felt uneasy when he looked at her. She swallowed unconsciously and tried to stay calm.
The corners of Xia Yi's mouth slightly raised, but his voice was unusually serious: "How do I know if you put these potions in yourself? After all, you only have so many on you."
Seeing that she couldn't explain it clearly, Leng Yuexin pretended to be indifferent and said casually: "If you don't believe it, call the police to arrest me."
Xia Yi did not respond immediately. Instead, he picked up Leng Yuexin's phone, unlocked it with her fingerprint, and began to carefully check her phone records.
Leng Yuexin was glad that she didn't download any hacking software on her phone.
However, Xia Yi still found something unusual. He stared at Leng Yuexin and asked sharply, "Who is Wen Shangjun to you?"
Leng Yuexin's heart sank, and she decided to answer truthfully: "He...he is my father."
After hearing this, Xia Yi suddenly pressed Leng Yuexin down on the sofa, pinched her face with both hands, and said with a bit of teasing in his tone: "You said you were sent by your superiors, and now you say Wen Shangjun is your father. Wen Shangjun is a gangster, do you think a relative of a gangster boss can be a policeman?"
Leng Yuexin smiled slightly, her hands accidentally touched Xia Yi's firm chest, and asked softly: "Then what are you going to do?"
Xia Yi's face quickly heated up, his eyes were a little flustered, he quickly stood up and regained his serious expression: "I can't let you leave until I figure out your identity."
Leng Yuexin sat up straight, her lips slightly raised, revealing a sly smile: "Sir, you are illegally detaining me. You are breaking the law knowingly, which is aggravated."
Xia Yi frowned, and after a moment of silence, he sighed helplessly and untied Leng Yuexin's handcuffs: "You can go."
Leng Yuexin rubbed her wrist and said coquettishly, "It hurts!"
Xia Yi caught a glimpse of the conspicuous red mark on Leng Yuexin's wrist, and couldn't help but sigh softly, saying helplessly: "I'm really sorry, let me rub it for you."
He gently took Leng Yuexin's hand and rubbed her slightly swollen wrist carefully.
Leng Yuexin stared at Xia Yi quietly, and a warm current surged in her heart. No matter how many times she went through the reset, Xia Yi could always make her feel at ease with his unique gentleness and thoughtfulness.
There was a hint of pleading in Xia Yi's eyes. He whispered, "Since you already know my identity, could you please keep it a secret for me? I am currently carrying out a very important mission."
Leng Yuexin smiled and nodded in response: "Of course, as long as you are willing to trust me and tell me what you are investigating, I promise to keep my mouth shut."
Xia Yi looked at Leng Yuexin's sincere eyes. After a moment of silence, he slowly said, "I am tracking down the boss behind the emerging society."
Leng Yuexin nodded slightly, with a serious expression on her face: "Then you can return to the team. The new boss behind the scenes is Wen Shangjun. However, I plan to take over this society and gradually disintegrate its dark forces and guide it onto the right path."
Xia Yi was shocked after hearing this, his eyes widened: "Are you serious? Or are you kidding me?"
Leng Yuexin smiled and said firmly: "Of course, I have never been so serious. Otherwise, why do you think I, a daughter of the underworld, would reveal this information to you for no reason?"
Xia Yi frowned, he looked at Leng Yuexin carefully, and then asked solemnly: "What is your real purpose?"
