Xi Wan calmed herself down and climbed out of the pool. She took a towel from the side and wrapped it around her body. She walked to Su Xun’s side and asked, “Didn’t you say you wouldn’t be back tonight?”

“I just came back to get something,” Su Xun replied uncomfortably.

“Oh.” Xi Wan replied slowly and skipped past Su Xun before heading back to the bedroom.

As she walked, she said, “Hurry up and take whatever you want.”

Su Xun crossed his arms in front of his chest and silently looked at Xi Wan’s back.

He did not know why he had that sudden thought. He wanted to come back and take that ugly sheep doll. Did he really care about that doll that much? It was something that could be seen casually on the street, but Su Xun could not figure out why he had such thoughts.

Xi Wan walked up to the second floor and was about to return to the bedroom when Chen Tong walked over and called out to her, “Madam, Mr. Su is back.”

“I know. I saw him just now.” Xi Wan placed her hand on the doorknob and was about to enter the bedroom.

Chen Tong stopped her and handed her the box. “Madam, this is the gift you asked me to give to Mr. Su. Since Mr. Su is back, you can give it to him personally.”

Xi Wan looked at the box. She was shocked and surprised. “I remember that I told you to give it to him, right?”

Chen Tong said seriously, “Mr. Su’s expression today is too scary. I don’t dare to go to him.”

She wanted Madam to give this gift to Mr. Su personally and take the opportunity to strengthen the relationship between the two of them!

After Xi Wan took the box, she looked at the time on her phone and realized that it was almost midnight. Logically speaking, Chen Tong should have gotten off work by now, but she had been waiting here.

Xi Wan was moved with compassion and her tone became much gentler, “It’s already so late so you should go back and rest. I’ll give this gift to him personally.”

“Thank you, Madam.” After saying that, Chen Tong turned around and left.

After she left, Xi Wan was still lamenting, “Chen Tong is really responsible. She’s clearly just a chef, but she’s doing the job of a butler.”

The system replied: [Although she has a lot of work, her salary is also very high. It’s more than twice as much as the other maids in this villa.]

Xi Wan was silent for a long time and did not say a word.

It was no wonder why Chen Tong worked so hard. It turned out that it was for the high salary.

The saying that ‘money makes the world goes round’ was indeed true.

Xi Wan stood there for a while before Su Xun came in from the backyard.

When Xi Wan saw him come in, she quickly walked over and handed the box in her hand to him as she said, “This is my gift to you. Although it’s not as valuable as the pink diamond that vou gave me, I selected it carefully for you.” Su Xun took the box and weighed it in his hand. He guessed that it should be a watch.

However, he did not say much. He just nodded slightly and said, “I understand.”

“If there’s nothing else, I’ll go back first. It’s getting late and I’m feeling a little sleepy.”

At this moment, Su Xun spoke again. “I heard that you’re investigating Wang

Rui.”

Xi Wan paused. She did not expect Su Xun to be so well-informed.

She had just gotten someone to tail Wang Rui and Su Xun already knew about it.

However, it did not matter even if he knew. Although he was not on her side, he definitely would not help Wang Rui.

Hence, Xi Wan said nonchalantly, “That’s right. I just suspect that there’s something fishy about the things she did in the past, so I’m going to investigate her.”

She originally thought that Su Xun would not ask any more questions after hearing this, but she did not expect him to say, “I can send people to help you if you need help.”

“Really?” Xi Wan’s eyes brightened up. “How many people do you plan to lend

“How many people do you want to borrow?”

“Of course, the more, the better.” Xi Wan said, “The more people there are, the more information I’ll receive, and the higher the accuracy of the information.”

After Su Xun heard this, his expression did not change much. He looked at Xi Wan with the same gaze as usual. “I understand.”

“Thank you in advance.” Xi Wan snapped her fingers to express her gratitude, then skipped past Su Xun and walked into her bedroom.

Su Xun stood still on the spot for two seconds before returning to the study room.

After Xi Wan returned to her bedroom, she discussed this matter excitedly with the system, “How many people do you think Su Xun will lend me?”

[Are you really not afraid of the antagonist at all?]

“That’s right,” Xi Wan replied cheerfully..
