Chapter 645: Chapter 645 Advantages Turn Into Disadvantages (3)_1

"I know," Baibai’s words elicited a response from Situ Xin, devoid of any curiosity.

"Master, Master, aren’t you curious about what changes have occurred with the space upgrade this time?" Baibai persisted.

"I’m not curious. Not at all," Situ Xin thought with a surge of irritation. Baibai must be doing this on purpose, deliberately talking about the space upgrade, knowing full well that she currently couldn’t enter the space.

"How can you not be curious, Master? Let me tell you, the changes to the space this time are huge. Really, I’m telling you," Baibai grew more excited as it spoke, while Situ Xin’s face darkened with every word.

Situ Xin bit back her anger and interrupted Baibai, who was preparing to paint a detailed picture to pique her curiosity, "Stop, Baibai, just stop. When I can enter the space, I’ll see it for myself. I don’t want to hear your description now. And besides, Baibai, your descriptive skills are rather lacking. I really don’t want to lose my interest in entering the space because of you. You wouldn’t want to see that, would you?"

Baibai hadn’t expected that its attempt to provoke its master by leaving her bored and alone in the space would backfire. The moment Situ Xin finished speaking, Baibai immediately shut its mouth. Wisely, it said no more. Only then did it realize that if it annoyed its master, the problem wouldn’t just be that she might not enter the space; it would be that Baibai itself wouldn’t be able to leave the space.

For Baibai, being stuck inside the space forever was unbearable. So, it wisely clamped its mouth shut and swallowed the words it was about to say. Later, when Situ Xin would enter the space and be surprised by her advanced cultivation level, Baibai muttered, "It was you who told me not to say anything. The very next thing I was about to tell you was about your advancement."

Of course, all this came later. For now, Baibai finally closed its mouth, and Situ Xin’s mind was much quieter.

Before Situ Xin fell ill with a persistent fever and was hospitalized, she had discussed the plan with Xiang Yang and Situ Muli about how to remove those listed individuals from the official ranks of Country H.

However, when Situ Xin shared the plan with Xiang Yang and the others, it was just the beginning. She had intended to explain it to them gradually. But before she could, she ended up in the hospital due to the Heart Demon’s near-fatal influence on her.

Xiang Yang, Situ Muli, and Mei, whose belly was slowly swelling like a balloon, rushed to the hospital to visit Situ Xin after hearing about her illness.

These three represented all the members of The Dark Division. If they hadn’t thought that too many people would be conspicuous and chaotic, all the members of The Dark Division would have wanted to visit their Leader, Situ Xin, in the hospital. Aside from their genuine admiration for her as their Leader and the acknowledgment of her position as the Dark Division Leader, they were also curious. They wondered how their fierce and abnormal Leader could get sick, and they were even more curious about what she would look like while ill.

When Mei sat on the chair by Situ Xin’s hospital bed, her belly swollen with pregnancy, she cheerfully described the facial expressions of the people in The Dark Division when they heard the news that their Leader Situ Xin was sick and hospitalized.

Situ Xin listened with a sense of helplessness. So what if she was sick? She was human, and getting sick was completely normal. However, if Baibai knew this thought in Situ Xin’s mind, Baibai would definitely, without mincing words, tell Situ Xin, "You’re really wrong there, you can’t be considered human anymore, at least, not a normal one."

"Alright, you two go back, and just make sure to describe to them what their Leader looks like when she’s ill," Situ Xin glanced at the woman in front of her who looked like someone had triggered her laughter point, chuckling non-stop while cradling her big belly.

"Eh, okay, okay, I’ll make sure to describe it well to them." This pregnant woman really acted nothing like her usual self. Situ Xin’s sarcastic comment was taken seriously by her, who promptly agreed.

"Mei, calm down a bit, stop laughing like that," Xiang Yang, who was standing to the side, was watching anxiously as the mother of his child trembled with laughter, her belly protruding. He feared that all this continuous laughter might cause his child to be born prematurely.

"Yes, Mei, be careful, you are pregnant after all, and you are carrying someone inside your belly," Situ Xin kindly joined Xiang Yang in urging her.

Leader Situ Xin’s authority seemed to work effectively in front of the pregnant woman; Mei, who had been frowning at Xiang Yang and was about to retort, swallowed her words after Situ Xin spoke, and obediently suppressed her incessant laughter.

Seeing that the mother of his child had finally quieted down, Xiang Yang breathed a sigh of relief. He knew all too well how much Mei’s temperament had changed since she became pregnant. And now that she was pregnant, he couldn’t say too much or be too harsh, otherwise, if Mei’s mood worsened, it could affect the fetus. So, when Mei heeded Situ Xin’s words and calmed down, Xiang Yang gave Situ Xin a grateful look, thinking to himself that the Leader’s words indeed carried weight.

Situ Muli and Xiao Muli, one lay on the hospital bed, looking at a book in her hands, and the other stood with arms folded, both staying out of the conversation between the three others. Xiao Muli wasn’t acquainted with Xiang Yang and the others, and knowing that they were from The Dark Division, he had politely greeted them upon their entrance and then conscientiously picked up a book to read. Inside, however, Xiao Muli felt far from the indifference he outwardly exhibited.

His inner self was quite displeased. He had hoped to use the opportunity of this hospital stay to foster a closer relationship with Situ Xin. But not only were the men from the Situ and Loo Families treating him as if he were a thief, but the stream of visitors coming to see him and Situ Xin was endless. It was truly difficult for him to find any alone time with Situ Xin.

Situ Mu Li hadn’t intervened because he knew how changes in Mei’s temperament since getting pregnant were intense. It wasn’t just a slight shift; if he had opened his mouth to help Xiang Yang, to urge her a bit, she would have scolded him right along with Xiang Yang, and the situation would have escalated even more. Situ Mu Li had worried when Situ Xin began to help Xiang Yang persuade Mei, afraid that Mei might scold Situ Xin as well. Fortunately, though Mei’s temper had greatly shifted, when faced with Leader Situ Xin, she still retained the necessary respect.
