Chapter 420 Happy

With George Sheng in charge, Xiao Guoan felt awkward chatting with Song Xi, but he was afraid of being left out if he didn't chat, so he could only talk about work and life intermittently.

George Sheng had a cold aura that kept strangers away, and Xiao Guoan did not dare to strike up a conversation with him rashly. He was really restless.

Song Xi was a little depressed at first. When Xiao Guoan chatted with her about childhood, she felt both sad and chilled, as if she had eaten something good, but her throat was stuck and she just wanted to vomit it out.

But now George Sheng is a good thing that Xiao Guoan can see but cannot eat, allowing him to experience the feeling of having a hundred claws scratching his heart.

This was not the first time that Song Xi felt that George Sheng was quite useful. Sometimes when the three words "George Sheng" were revealed, they were the tokens on the table of the Lord of Hell, which made people frightened. What's more, when he arrived, , the others could only hold their breath and concentrate, trembling with fear.

Of course, Song Xi no longer feels this way. She has become a mother-in-law after being a grown-up girl for many years, and finally she no longer has to suffer this pain.

Because she was in a good mood, Song Xi picked up the teapot and poured George Sheng a cup of tea.

Turning to look at Xiao Guoan, she asked: "Uncle Xiao, would you like some more tea?"

Xiao Guoan waved his hands hurriedly: "No, I still have it."

Not to mention that he is seeking help from Song Xi now, but just talking about the Bodhisattva invited by Song Xi, who dares to manipulate the people around George Sheng?

After George Sheng said hello to Xiao Guoan after entering the door, he said nothing again. At this time, he suddenly asked: "Do cats really like to eat fish?"

Naturally, the conversation was with Song Xi. Song Xi glanced at George Sheng, and then said: "I can eat canned fish, but I have never fed a whole fish."

George Sheng said: "The fish here tastes pretty good. Can you pack some for your cat to take home?"

Song Xi said: "Forget it, if you take it back, you will probably make a fortune."

A smile flashed in George Sheng's eyes, but he said teasingly: "Cats are kissing cats, but dogs are not kissing dogs?"

Song Xi challenged: "I picked it up on the way."

George Sheng said: "You have never raised a dog. A dog is loyal. If you are good to it, it will be good to you. If you encounter danger or difficulty, it will not leave you and run away."

After that, George Sheng added openly and honestly: "The more you deal with dogs, the more you don't like to interact with others. There are fewer vicious dogs and more bad people."

Song Xi had never spoken to George Sheng before coming here. Just now he suddenly mentioned cats and fish, and she didn't expect that he was going to talk about it.

If she saw through it but didn't tell it, then George Sheng was using it openly. These words were no less unpleasant than just reaching out and slapping Xiao Guoan.

She suddenly couldn't bear to look at Xiao Guoan's expression, but in fact, Song Xi still underestimated Xiao Guoan's psychological quality, or in other words, she still didn't understand what George Sheng said before, you should have a begging attitude when asking for help. What is the concept.

After George Sheng finished speaking, the person who spoke next was not Song Xi, but Xiao Guoan. He looked like nothing had happened and said with a smile: "Xiao Xi likes cats. Her father told me that she comes home from get off work every day. I just held the cat in my hand and never let go. I said I would give her another one, but her father wouldn’t let her because he was afraid that she would be too tired after raising too many.”

George Sheng's expression remained unchanged and he said in his usual tone: "I heard from Xi'er that Deputy Prosecutor Xiao has a close relationship with her father?"

This was the first time that George Sheng took the initiative to talk to him. While Xiao Guoan was nervous, he couldn't help but smile and responded: "Yes, we have been friends for many years, and I watched Xiao Xi grow up."

George Sheng said: "Then when her father was in trouble, why didn't Deputy Prosecutor Xiao even answer her phone call?"

Xiao Guoan didn't expect George Sheng's question to be so straightforward. He caught a glimpse of Song Xi from the corner of his eye. Song Xi was sitting on the back of the chair, her eyes slightly lowered, and she pursed her lips, making it clear that she didn't want to talk.

In an instant, Xiao Guoan almost broke out in a cold sweat. He tried hard to maintain his composure and replied: "I explained to Xiaoxi before that it was not that I didn't want to help with her father's matter, but that the procuratorate was very tight at that time. A death order was issued and no one was allowed to contact Brother Song’s family in private. I was also afraid of causing complications. In fact, I asked many people secretly and thought of many solutions. I was so worried that I couldn’t sleep all night long..."

George Sheng's face showed no emotion or anger, and he said in a very calm voice: "It's been a year since her father's incident. Has the Procuratorate been blocking you from contacting Xi'er for such a long time?"

Xiao Guoan was over fifty years old, with gray hair on his temples. He was sitting on a chair with an ugly expression on his face. He wanted to defend himself but could not find a reason for the moment. His speechless look was both irritating and sad.

"We don't want to worry about whether you are really busy with her father's affairs. Xi'er called me the day before yesterday and said that you were looking for her help if you had something. It was clearly stated that you were looking for my help, so I won't make any detours with you. Xi'er's role is to spread the word. She has told me your problem, and now I tell you that your nephew's trouble in Thailand is not that big. I can help, but I don't want to. As for why I don't want to help, you know it very well."

Xiao Guoan finally turned pale, from red to white in an instant.

"Don't think it was Xi'er who said something in front of me. Even if she doesn't say anything, I will repay those favors that were good to her in the past. As for those who went their separate ways in difficult times, I will also return them. Remember, Night City is so big, I am not the only one who can help you, Deputy Prosecutor Xiao can choose another expert."

After saying that, he pinched the paper towel on the side of the plate, wiped his hands, and looked at Song Xi: "Let's go, it's not that the place has not changed and we can still taste the taste of your childhood."

Song Xi stood up, holding her bag in one hand and her coat in the other.

"Uncle Xiao, I'm sorry I couldn't help you."

With a brief nod, Song Xi turned around to leave.

Xiao Guoan said: "I'm sorry, Xiao Xi."

Song Xi smiled: "I have nothing to apologize for. I wish you a prosperous career in the future, and the better you go."

After leaving the private room with George Sheng, Song Xi said nothing. When she approached the front desk, she lowered her head and prepared to open the bag. George Sheng said, "I bought it."

Song Xi was stunned and looked up at him. George Sheng walked forward without squinting his eyes and with a calm face.

Until they got into the car and George Sheng fastened the seat belt with one hand, Song Xi said: "You were a little handsome just now."

George Sheng looked sideways at her. Song Xi paused for three seconds and spoke again: "Okay, he is very handsome. I haven't been so angry for a long time. If you don't come, the most I can do is reject him. Now you tell me what I want to say." I said all the things I didn’t want to say, and all I felt in my heart was that I was happy.”

A flash of light flashed across George Sheng's eyes. He turned away and looked forward. While starting the car, he said, "But I also offended Xiao Guoan."

Hearing this, Song Xi glanced at him sideways and said suspiciously: "Young Master, are you still afraid of offending him?"

George Sheng is indeed not afraid. Isn't this just asking for a favor?

Without changing his expression, George Sheng said, "If he puts on my shoes behind my back in the future, the blame will be on you."

Song Xi replied without thinking: "If he dares to wear small shoes for you, you can make him unable to wear shoes in the future. Do you think he is stupid, or do you think I am stupid?"
