Chapter 6 You don't have a choice
Looking at the man in front of him, Xia Wuwu instantly had a bad premonition.
How did he come?
Although he had never met this top boss before, Xu Shi's bad reputation had already spread throughout Night City.
It can be said that where there is him, nothing good will happen.
Xia Wuwu didn't think that Xu Shi looked like a person who would patronize a cheap restaurant, let alone that he would be so polite to his subordinates.
Coupled with the fact that the talent of "Starfire" had just left, it made her even more convinced that the appearance of the other party was no accident.
What can I do?
Before she could react, Xu Shi had already taken Su Lin to sit opposite her.
This made Xia Wuwu's heart more and more uneasy.
However, next, Xu Shi simply ordered a meal, and then chatted with Su Lin about his leisure days while eating.
During the conversation, the two seemed to completely ignore her presence.
Ay?
Such a reaction made Xia Wuwu a little overwhelmed.
How does it feel...... He's really here for dinner?
Is it because you are thinking too much?
Xia Wuwu blinked, but he didn't let his guard down because of this.
In any case, it is better to go.
After taking two bites, she hurriedly stood up, "I'll go back to the company first, and Director Xu and Director Su will use it slowly." ”
“…… There are still ten minutes before the end of the lunch break, so Team Leader Xia doesn't need to be in such a hurry. ”
Xu Shi put down his chopsticks and stopped her softly, "Sit down and talk, I just have something to tell you." ”
Hearing this, Xia Wuwu secretly said that something was wrong.
But now that she couldn't leave, she saw Su Lin move her position slightly, blocking her only way.
The girl knows very well that this woman is very strong, and the odds of winning against her are slim.
Xu Dong ...... Do you have any commands? ”
So she had no choice but to sit back helplessly under Xu Shi's gaze, trying to be as calm as possible.
"Why are you so nervous, relax."
Looking at her cramped appearance, Xu Shi couldn't help laughing, "I just want to ask Team Leader Xia a question...... Have you ever heard of the name "refraction"? ”
!
As soon as these words came out, Xia Wuwu's mind was still struck by lightning.
After being silent for a while, she opened her mouth hoarsely, "I've never heard of ......."
"Huh? Isn't Team Leader Xia from Night City? ”
Xu Shi pretended to be surprised, "That was one of the two giants of Night City ten years ago, and together with another "Tianhe" consortium, they firmly controlled the lifeblood of Night City. ”
"It's a pity that such a behemoth, for some reason, turned into nothing overnight."
"The group's industry is in ruins, and all the scientific research data has been destroyed...... Chairman Xia Yuanhai was also killed, and no one in the family was spared. ”
"But I've heard that there are still people who survived this disaster."
"For example, Xia Yuanhai's sister, and his only daughter...... Even the only daughter returned to Night City nine years later and joined the "Snake Ring" incognito. ”
"Haven't you heard of these things?"
“…… What exactly are you trying to say? ”
Listening to his unhurried narration, Xia Wuwu's voice trembled unconsciously.
She thought that Xu Shi had only discovered the deal between herself and Starfire, but now it seemed that the other party knew far more than she thought.
The only daughter is naturally her, but she also knows how dangerous her identity is, and once she is discovered, the consequences will be unimaginable.
So she has been trying her best to hide this secret, and she has never exposed half of it for ten years.
Even a consortium shouldn't find out...... And when did he notice it?
Thinking that Xu Shi had probably been investigating herself, she didn't know anything about it...... Xia Wuwu suddenly felt a chill down his spine.
"What I want to say is that after such an accident, Team Leader Xia should hate this kind of betrayal of the group's interests the most, how can he knowingly commit it?"
Xu Shi looked at her with a smile, "Even if you encounter difficulties at home, with your performance this year, you can directly ask the company for help, why do you need to do such a dangerous thing?" ”
"I ......"
Xia Wuwu opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say.
"Of course, in fact, I can also understand, after all, the Shen leader of the 'Starfire' has a lot to do with you."
Xu Shi didn't give her a chance to explain, and continued to take care of himself, "Moreover, the Hualan Public Hospital in District 12 does not have the level to treat your sister-in-law's strange complications...... If it were me, I might also care about it. ”
"What are you going to do?!"
Hearing this, Xia Wuwu's emotions suddenly turned into anger, and the momentum on his body became dangerous.
This is not a boss's greeting to his subordinates, but a naked threat!
The only relative was used as a bargaining chip, and no matter how good her psychological quality was, it would be difficult for her to continue to be rational.
At the same moment, Su Lin, who was silent on the side, was also ready to go.
Anyone in front of her threatened the young master, and she would not be able to walk out of this restaurant alive today.
However, almost at the moment when Xia Wuwu took the case, Xu Shi had already prepared and buckled her wrist.
"What are you doing, you let go of ......"
Xia Wuwu wanted to break free, but the moment she met Xu Shi's gaze, a flash of red light in the other party's eyes suddenly made her consciousness a little trance.
"Team Leader Xia, I advise you to think about whether it's worth it."
Xu Shi's voice came again, but it fell on her ears a little more ethereal and cold, "Do you really think that with the strength of 'Xinghuo', it is enough for you to retreat after doing this kind of thing?" ”
"I ...... Trust him ......"
Xia Wuwu only felt that it was a little difficult to breathe, but he still tried his best to refute.
"Don't kid yourself."
Xu Shi smiled contemptuously, "You obviously know very well that Shen He is gambling with your life." ”
"If it comes to light, he's still going to maneuver, but you're going to have an accident...... Like it is now, isn't it? ”
At this point, he quickly let go of his hand.
The feeling of oppression hanging above his head faded in an instant, and Xia Wuwu sat down on the chair without worry.
Fine beads of sweat oozed from her forehead, and her fair skin became a little flushed.
And judging from her expression, her heart has been shaken.
Because what Xu Shi said is not true.
Not to mention that the deal has been punctured, even if it can really go smoothly, "Snake Ring" will definitely blame the reason for the loss on himself, the person in charge of the operation.
At that point, what if there are inhibitors?
can only let my aunt survive for another half a year...... Even before that, she may be swept away by the hospital because of the cost.
And these things may not be something that "Spark" can take care of.
At least she didn't want to, and she didn't dare to gamble with this.
The girl's mind became more and more confused, and finally she spit out a sentence, "You want me...... How? ”
"If I'm not mistaken, Starfire needs you to give them information."
Xu Shi also stuffed a note into her hand, and his tone was full of evil, "Do what you say, as for the follow-up actions, that's your job, you don't need me to teach you." ”
"In exchange, I will provide the best medical conditions for your loved ones...... Team Leader Xia should understand that what I can give you is more than just a bottle of SS-grade inhibitors. ”
He even knows that?
Xia Wuwu clutched the note tightly, his nails deeply embedded in the flesh.
Even without looking, she knows what is written on it.
However, she also knew that since the moment she was caught by Xu Shi, she had no choice.
Taking a deep breath, the girl stood up and left the restaurant in despair.
"I ...... Got it. ”
