Chapter 665: Chapter 665: Falling into Xiao Qing’s Trap_1

However, fortunately, Baibai didn’t know the thoughts in Xiao Muli’s mind at the moment, so Baibai was happily eating the fruit Situ Xin was feeding it.

"Eh, this." Mr. Edward hadn’t expected Xiao Muli to give him such an answer. He had always thought that he was an important client to Xiao Muli, and that Xiao Muli should at least be courteous to him. Mr. Edward wanted to express his dissatisfaction, but just as he opened his mouth to say something, Che intervened, "Mr. Edward, since my master has already said so, please wait a moment."

Upon hearing Che’s words, Mr. Edward felt extremely frustrated, but he had no choice. He was relying on Xiao Muli now, still waiting for the batch of arms from him. If he offended Xiao Muli at this moment and Xiao Muli reneged on the deal, not selling the arms to him, he wouldn’t know how to explain it to his own superior upon his return.

"Oh no, Xiao Muli seems to have discovered us." Baibai, with its exceptionally sharp hearing, had heard Xiao Muli’s "Baby". Not only had Baibai heard it, but Situ Xin had as well.

Xiao Muli discovering her was within her expectations. If Xiao Muli hadn’t discovered her, that would have been a surprise for Situ Xin. Moreover, she might reconsider whether to accept Xiao Muli as her life partner.

What Xiao Muli didn’t know was that he was so close to being unknowingly kicked out of the game by Situ Xin.

"So, Master, should we go down?" Baibai thought, since Xiao Muli already knew it was their master’s doing, should they show themselves?

"No, wait a bit." Situ Xin suddenly had a mischievous idea; she wanted to see how long it would take for Xiao Muli to find her.

"Oh, okay." Baibai, hearing the excitement in its owner’s voice, knew its master had a new plan. And it, the Divine Beast, didn’t plan to stop this; it was even looking forward to the show.

"Master." Xuan hesitated to speak as he sensed his master was not in a good mood. However, he had something to say to his master, so he had to brace himself and start speaking.

"What’s the matter." Xiao Muli, unable to find Situ Xin at the moment, was feeling frustrated, so when Xuan approached him, his tone was quite poor.

"Well, I just heard something from the people present, about the grenade not exploding and Xiao Qing’s men being immobilized." Xuan wasn’t sure why his master was upset, but he knew better than to aggravate him when he was in a bad mood. Aggravating him would mean dire consequences for that person.

"Speak." Hearing Xuan’s words, Xiao Muli retracted his eyes from searching for Situ Xin and looked at Xuan.

"They say it was a white shape that suddenly caught the grenade thrown into the air, and it seemed that the same white shape immobilized Xiao Qing’s men. As for how they were immobilized, they didn’t see that." Xuan didn’t quite believe what his subordinates were saying; he wondered if Xiao Family’s subordinates had hallucinations or were too tired and dreaming. But after checking with several others and getting the same answer, he still decided to report to his master, even though they didn’t believe it.

After Xuan had finished speaking, both he and Che looked at their master Xiao Muli’s expression, expecting him to dismiss it as nonsense. However, after Xiao Muli heard what Xuan had to say, a hint of pleasure flashed in his eyes. Then he eagerly asked, "Where is that white shape they mentioned now?"

"They said it was in the sky before, I don’t know about now." Before Che could finish, Xiao Muli had already lifted his head to look up at the sky. When he saw the white shape floating there, a smile began to form on Xiao Muli’s lips.

This was as he suspected, the white shape was Baibai from Situ Xin’s arms.

When Che and Xuan looked up with Xiao Muli and saw the white object, they exclaimed in shock, "What is that?"

Even Mr. Edward shouted in surprise, "What is this white thing? How can it float in mid-air?" But obviously, the only one present who knew what the white shape was, Xiao Muli, did not explain to everyone. Instead, he looked at the white shape with a smile in his eyes, wondering whether to call Situ Xin and Baibai down.

What he was concerned about was whether Situ Xin’s and Baibai’s appearance would be too conspicuous. To be honest, this man had a flaw, which was not liking his possessions to be on public display.

Aside from not wanting his treasured person to be the center of attention, Xiao Muli was more worried that Situ Xin’s and Baibai’s appearance would attract unnecessary attention from certain people.

Xiao Muli glanced at Mr. Edward, who was also looking up at the sky with great interest, and became even less willing to have Situ Xin appear before everyone. However, clearly, Situ Xin and Baibai didn’t share Xiao Muli’s concerns.

"Master, it looks like Xiao Muli has spotted us," Baibai reported to Situ Xin as Xiao Muli looked up at them.

"I know." Situ Xin rolled her eyes at Baibai’s excited expression.

"So, Master, should we go down?" Although it didn’t cost Baibai much effort to float mid-air, it wasn’t keen on hanging around up there for a long time. Baibai preferred the feeling of standing on solid ground.

"Let’s go down." Situ Xin was also tired of hanging in the air, and she was starting to miss Xiao Muli a bit. Of course, she wouldn’t share this little sentiment with Baibai.

It wasn’t that Situ Xin and Baibai had no concerns about attracting attention from certain individuals or causing trouble for themselves with their conspicuous appearance. Now that Situ Xin had advanced and increased her strength, erasing certain memories from a person was a piece of cake for her, and even Baibai could do it.

Therefore, the two of them had no reservations about making such a conspicuous appearance.

Just as Xiao Muli was thinking about how to tell Situ Xin to stay in the air with Baibai for a while longer, Situ Xin, seated on Baibai’s back, had already descended from the air and landed beside Xiao Muli.
