Jiang Shen nodded seriously.

He then looked at Chi Jiao hesitantly.

“Miss Chi, is the mission you want Xiaoli to go on related to the Soul Stone?”

Chi Jiao gave a faint grunt of acknowledgment.

Jiang Shen could imagine that it would be very dangerous if it was related to the Soul Stone.

Thinking of Jiang Xiaoli’s useless superpower, Jiang Shen was a little speechless.

“It’s not too late to regret now. This mission should be very dangerous,” Chi Jiao said calmly.

“It doesn’t matter if it’s dangerous.” Jiang Shen smirked. “Which mission in 117 is not dangerous? Jiang Xiaoli really needs to train herself…”

As he spoke, he looked at his watch.

“It’s getting late. I have to rush back to Shang Jing for a meeting today. I have to go now.” Jiang Shen said, “Xiaoli will stay in White City for the time being. If you have anything that needs doing, get her to do it. Don’t hesitate.”

Chi Jiao and Jiang Shen had said everything they needed to say, so they stood up and she saw him off.

After leaving the branch, Jiang Shen got into the car and said to Jiang Xiaoli, who was playing with her phone in the passenger seat, “I’m going back to Shang Jing. You’ll stay in White City and wait to complete the mission with Miss Chi.”

Jiang Xiaoli looked up from her game and stared at him in disbelief. “Uncle, you really want me to go on the mission with Chi Jiao?”

She thought it was just a stalling tactic.

She didn’t expect Jiang Shen to really keep her in White City.

The memory of being nearly pushed off the edge by Chi Jiao was especially vivid. Jiang Xiaoli subconsciously resisted being with her.

“What else can you do? Apart from making up for your mistake, do you have any other solution?” Jiang Shen asked coldly.

“But that mission must be very dangerous, right? Uncle, you know that Chi Jiao and I are at odds. What if she makes things difficult for me?” Jiang Xiaoli looked worried.

“Going on a mission with Miss Chi is a very good opportunity to train. You should take this opportunity to build a good relationship with her and eliminate the grudge between you two. If you still want to stay in 117, then cut the crap and get out of the car,” Jiang Shen said.

Jiang Xiaoli still wanted to argue, but seeing his cold expression, she swallowed her words and obediently got out of the car.

Watching Jiang Shen’s car leave, Jiang Xiaoli stomped her feet in exasperation. “Chi Jiao, I’ll make you pay the price sooner or later!”

Gritting her teeth, she muttered to herself before leaving.

At that moment, a black raven was perched on a tree at the entrance of the branch. As it watched Jiang Xiaoli leave, its round eyes flashed with a cold glint.

At night, Chi Jiao went to the entrance of Xing Teng Academy to wait for Quan Jue to finish school.

She didn’t tell him that she was picking him up from school. It was a surprise.

The chauffeur, Uncle Liu, came with Chi Jiao and waited by the road with her.

When night fell and most of the students had left, a familiar figure slowly entered her line of sight.

The moment Chi Jiao saw Quan Jue, a radiant smile appeared on her little face.

However, the smile stiffened when she saw the girl following him.

Chi Jiao had seen that tall and beautiful, long-haired girl before.

It was Jian Manman, Quan Jue’s female classmate whom she had met at the bar where he worked.
