"If anyone else asks, just show them. As long as you like it, there's no problem," Guo Xuyang said.
"You trust me that much?" Li Minxi glanced at him.
"Absolutely. How many days have I been home?"
"You're right. Xiao Yu came over yesterday afternoon, saying you saved two young girls in a heroic rescue?"
"What did she come for?"
"Can't she come to see Xiao Bao and chat?"
"No wonder Ye Zi was acting grumpy last night."
"You saw Ye Zi?"
"Yeah. She's been helping deliver meals for people these past couple of days."
"Who?"
"I went on a mission and caught two big fish. Brother Liang and the others are interrogating them."
"So that's why Xiao Yu came alone. You're all busy people, unable to even accompany your wives for their check-ups." Li Minxi complained.
"Xiao Yu came for a check-up?"
"Yes. Otherwise, why would he be here?"
"Speaking of check-ups, it reminded me of something. Xia Li mentioned yesterday that our half-year dividends are due. I told Brother Liang about it, and he said he wants to buy a bigger house. We've since discussed building a villa complex so we can all live together when we return. Can you see if you can find someone to design the blueprints?"
"You should ask President Cheng about that. He has plenty of talented people. Doesn't a real estate company have designers?"
"I'm so busy I'm dizzy. I just don't know where there's any suitable land available?"
"You'll have to ask him about that too. You need to plan ahead. Since we're building a villa complex, we should design and build kindergartens, playgrounds, and training grounds as well. Didn't you plan to form a soccer team, a basketball team, and a women's volleyball team? These infrastructure facilities need to keep up."
"No problem. I'll contact President Cheng when I get back. I haven't seen him in a while, I wonder what he's busy with?"
"What about Fatty? He disappeared after one appearance, tell him to find President Cheng. You have ready-made people, don't blame anyone else."
"I've been so busy these past few days, I haven't had time to ask about him. I'll call Fatty later to see what he's up to."
"Do you have any plans for today? If not, help me with my discharge procedures later," Li Minxi said.
"Have you recovered well? Why the rush to be discharged? Isn't it nice here?"
"This recovery isn't something that happens overnight. Other than not being able to hold Xiao Bao, I can walk around fine. It's always less convenient in the hospital than at home. I still have to trouble Liu He to arrange someone to deliver meals, and Jia Jia and Bin Bin aren't resting well either. It will be livelier at home."
"What will Auntie think if she sees you discharged?"
"My mom will definitely approve of my decision. That's settled, go and handle my discharge procedures later."
"Let's wait a bit. Xiao Hong is still staying at home. If Auntie comes over and sees Xiao Hong, what will she think? How will we explain it?" Guo Xuyang said.
"Then how about I go stay at the King's Villa?"
"Going to the King's Villa is fine. But what if Auntie stays to take care of you? In a few days, Xiao Hong's Xiao Bao will have his full moon banquet. What will we explain if they run into each other then?"
"Are you saying you want my mom to leave quickly? Is that it?" Li Minxi glared.
"No. I mean, you should stay in the hospital for a couple more days. Auntie won't stay here long once her foot is better. After all, she still has work to do. Don't you think so?"
"Who told me to marry a scumbag like you? Fine, I'll stay a couple more days."
"I'm going back for a bit. The area around our home hasn't been very stable lately. Many people are coming, all trying to spy on us."
"Now that you say that, I'm a little scared. Have Seven Brother and the others come over? I don't want Xiao Bao to be snatched away again."
"Who dares? I'll go to their homes and kill them."
"Stop talking about fighting all the time, what kind of behavior is that? You're a father now, how are you still so unstable?"
"It's those people forcing me," Guo Xuyang said.
"Then why don't you stay away from them?"
"With great power comes great responsibility. I can't run away even if I want to. President Jiang is trying to get me to go to America again, but I haven't agreed."
"If the country needs you, it means you have the ability. Don't worry about things at home, just do what you need to do."
"Wife, you're so good to me. With such a wife, what more can a man ask for."
"Oh, how cheesy, I've got goosebumps," Li Minxi shivered, hugging her arms.
"Then why are you still fooling around outside?"
"I can't help myself."
"Get lost. You annoy me when I see you. Let's go, out of sight, out of mind. Think about having Seven Brother arrange for more people to come."
They were just being affectionate a moment ago, and now she was changing her tune. People say a woman's face changes faster than the weather in June. Guo Xuyang touched his nose, unsure what to say.
"Why aren't you leaving yet? Don't be an eyesore here," Li Minxi urged.
"Then I'll leave first. If Auntie comes, check if her foot is better. If not, call me again. It should be fine after yesterday's adjustment," Guo Xuyang said as he walked out. He didn't want to be scolded by Li Minxi anymore.
"Seven Brother, how many people have you assigned to Xiao Xi's side? Two? Add two more, yes. There have been a lot of people flocking here these days. I'll be back soon, those petty thieves need to be taught a lesson. Otherwise, they won't know that King Ma has three eyes?" After hanging up the phone, Guo Xuyang left.
After a night of interrogation, Jiang Qixin was also groggy. Facing someone like Xie Lisha, most people wouldn't be able to handle it. It still required someone like Guo Xuyang, who possessed special abilities, to contend with Xie Lisha.
"Boss, how did it go? Any breakthroughs?" Lü Liang asked, looking at Jiang Qixin's sallow complexion.
"She said some things. I need to take her with me. Without using some methods, she simply won't confess."
"Should we use some medication? The woman named Sarah confessed quite readily yesterday."
"This kind of medicine doesn't have much effect on Xie Lisha, and it might even have the opposite effect."
"Should we call Yangzi over?" Lü Liang asked.
"He's been busy enough these past two days. Let's take her for now. If we can't take her, it's not too late to ask Yangzi for help."
"Alright then. I'll go prepare the vehicle."
"An armored vehicle. Ordinary cars probably won't be able to control her."
"Yesterday, I personally saw the shackles on her fall off on their own." Lü Liang said.
"Fell off on their own? What happened?"
"The first time Yangzi entered the interrogation room, Xie Lisha broke free from her restraints. She walked up to Yangzi, they talked about something, and then she sat back down."
"Why didn't you tell me about this? In that case, even an armored vehicle won't help. She might have hypnotic powers."
"Should we call Yangzi over?"
"Not for now. Since she had the ability to escape but didn't, it means there's something here that attracts her."
"You mean Yangzi?"
"Not just Yangzi. Let's wait and see." They certainly didn't know about the agreement Xie Lisha had reached with Guo Xuyang.
