Chapter 353: In-laws Meeting~

Us…

Nicholas frowned.

He stared at Xiang Huai. “During the competition in Country M, the five of them only interacted with you guys.”

Xiang Huai raised an eyebrow. “So?”

Nicholas had a headache.

Actually, he had been following Xue Xi all the way to the airport. While Xue Xi and the rest were boarding the plane, that group of people was being killed.

To be honest, logically speaking, it had nothing to do with these people.

However, among this group of people, there was someone who could not be judged by common sense, Xiang Huai. This man could have killed someone without anyone noticing.

Moreover, if Nicholas had not happened to be here, it would not have been possible for him to take over the case so quickly. By the time he knew about it, these people would have already flown away.

Therefore, Nicholas’s first reaction was to suspect them.

The people who quarreled with them were killed. This kind of matter was not easy to deal with. If there was no evidence, they would let the suspected person leave. However, if Nicholas knew that a person had a reason to kill, he would usually stop that person.

Hence, his first reaction was to have someone be left behind.

He did not dare to keep both Xiang Huai and Xue Xi, but it was only right for him to keep Xue Xi here, right?

However, Xiang Huai was too domineering.

Nicholas lowered his eyes and smiled. “Xiang, you can’t make things difficult for me. I’m just doing my job.”

Xiang Huai crossed his arms and said elegantly, “Nicholas, don’t make things difficult for me. I came to Country M and you try to detain my companion. Are you declaring war on me?”

Nicholas frowned. “Xiang, most of the people on the plane are Chinese. I don’t think you will create a war here.”

Faced with Xiang Huai’s oppression, Nicholas was fearless and even started threatening him.

Xiang Huai looked at him aggressively and with a strong aura. “Of course. But if you want to keep her, you have to make me stay too.”

Nicholas: “?”

Ever since they found out that Xiang Huai had arrived in Country M, all his subordinates had done nothing but watch him.

After all, this person was too elusive. Everyone was afraid that he had stolen some secrets regarding Country M.

Now that he was leaving, everyone heaved a sigh of relief.

The Demon King of Chaos was finally leaving.

If he stayed…

Nicholas felt a headache when he thought of that scenario.

He then turned to look at Xue Xi. He did not expect Xiang Huai to do this for her.

It was impossible for anyone to stay.

Nicholas wanted his subordinates to keep working. Xiang Huai had been here for only five days yet everyone was already on tenterhooks. It was better to send this tiger back.

Nicholas thought for a while and said, “I think you guys might have misunderstood. What I mean is, I want to ask, do you know who the murderer is?”

Xue Xi: “…”

Actually, when Nicholas said that he wanted to keep her, Xue Xi had sized up the people he had brought. She counted them, did some calculations, and felt that she really could not beat them.

However, she did not have any hope of being fairly treated in Country M, so she was still having a headache over how to go back.

It was only at this moment that she felt that she was alone and weak.

In the end, Xiang Huai only said a few words to Huo Xiu and the matter was resolved?

She looked at Huo Xiu in confusion and shook her head.

Only then did Nicholas Huo say, “Then can you leave a contact number? If we have new clues, we’ll contact you again.”

Xue Xi: “…”

After this group of people left and the plane finally took off safely, Xue Xi’s lips twitched as she looked blankly at the cabin window.

Nicholas had brought more than twenty elites and delayed the take-off time. Did they board the plane just to ask for her contact details?

Moreover, their ploy did not succeed.

Xiang Huai stopped her and sent Nicholas away. “If there’s anything, you can contact me.”

Nicholas’s expression was very ugly.

…

The plane was delayed by Nicholas for ten minutes. After taking off, the few of them lay flat on the plane and slept for a few hours. When they reached home, it was exactly noon in the country.

Ye Li had already bought a house in the capital, so she came to fetch Xue Xi home today.

At the arrival hall.

After Old Li parked the black Audi at the entrance, Ye Li alighted and stood at the arrival gate. She then heard the voice from the intercom. “Hello, everyone. I’m sorry to inform you that the flight from M Country to the capital, M66, will be delayed for 20 minutes.”

Ye Li: “?”

“Why are they delayed? This Country M is so unreliable! I still have to wait for another 20 minutes. My legs are sore!”

Ye Li’s thoughts were coincidentally spoken by a wealthy lady beside her. She turned around and saw a beautiful and dignified-looking woman who looked very young. If it were not for the fact that her age had been exposed by the wrinkles on her eyes, she would probably have been believed by others when she said that she was thirty years old.

Ye Li looked at this person and found her a little familiar, but she could not recall who she was.

When this person saw Ye Li looking over, she smiled kindly at her.

Ye Li was a gentle person. When another gave her kindness, she also said, “Are you also here to fetch someone?”

That person nodded then shook her head. “Who are you here to fetch?”

Ye Li: “My daughter.”

“Sigh, I’m sorry.” The woman waved her hand and sighed. “I’m here to fetch my daughter-in-law.”

Ye Li: “?”

The woman said, “My son has a girlfriend outside and won’t let me see her no matter what. Didn’t I rush over when I heard that she was coming back today? I wanted to meet her no matter what.”

Ye Li comforted her. “How can young people nowadays be like this?”

The woman said, “That’s right. How can they do this? It’s too much! That’s why I came over today. I thought that no matter what, I would still have to meet her. I’m not a picky mother-in-law. I actually just want to see if my son is bullying my daughter-in-law! My son is cold and doesn’t know how to interact with others. He likes how formidable others find him, but I’m actually worried that he can’t catch that girl because of it!”

Ye Li: “…”

Actually, in that split second earlier, she had wondered if this woman was Xiao Xiang’s mother.

However, when she heard this description, she immediately interrupted her thoughts.

Xiao Xiang was such a considerate person. Where could she find someone like him nowadays? The one who was cold and aloof was definitely not the same person.

Ye Li said, “My daughter’s boyfriend is exceptionally warm.”

The woman’s eyes lit up. “Really? Tell me. I’ll teach my son later, lest he never learns how to woo others.”

“…”

Just as they were chatting happily, the plane arrived.

Liang Gan got off the plane and saw the nine red-haired youths again. She clenched her fists and persuaded herself that it was fine. She had been promoted.

She would go to the Mathematical Olympiad’s office this afternoon to report and happily receive her bonus. She could only comfort herself with this!
