Chapter 585 All My People Are at Your Disposal

"Brother Shiqian, could you talk about your ’hearsay’?" Xia Chuyi asked Uncle Liberation Army with a grin.

Huo Shiqian slightly raised his eyebrows, looked at her, and asked, "Are you very interested in this matter?"

Xia Zhuyi pursed her lips, shrugged, and said, "It’s not that I am interested, but Xia Lan, do you still remember her?"

"The one who is my cousin Xia Lan, the one I had a conflict with before?"

Hearing Xia Chuyi ask this, Huo Shiqian nodded and replied, "Your cousin Xia Lan? I remember."

That woman named Xia Lan, she was the one who had framed Chuyi, he naturally remembered.

He remembered everyone who had ever hurt Chuyi.

Huo Shiqian’s eyelids slightly drooped, concealing the emotions in his eyes.

If it weren’t for the fact that Xia Lan was Chuyi’s relative and he had promised Chuyi not to interfere in this matter, he would have dealt with Xia Lan long ago.

Only to hear Xia Chuyi, arm in arm with him, walking and saying, "Xia Lan, she seems to be getting along quite well with that Ou Jiao now."

Hearing this, Huo Shiqian slightly furrowed his brows.

Then, Xia Chuyi continued, "Actually, I’ve already asked Huang Xiaoyun to keep an eye on her for me."

"But..." Xia Chuyi deliberately elongated her tone, "Xiao Yun is your subordinate, who knows if she might hide something from me?"

Hearing his own girl say this, Huo Shiqian immediately stopped walking, turned to face her, lowered his gaze, and said, "My people, you can use them with confidence."

Hearing this, Xia Chuyi’s eyes immediately curved into crescents, and she cheerfully said to him, "Really? In that case, Brother Shiqian, could you let me use all your contacts in Beijing?"

A slight breeze tousled Xia Chuyi’s loose hair on her forehead.

Seeing this, Huo Shiqian couldn’t help but reach out to tidy up Xia Chuyi’s windswept hair, before saying, "As long as you don’t use them to betray the country or do anything illegal."

"My people can all be at your disposal."

A simple sentence, yet it carried the weight of a promise, as if spoken by Uncle Liberation Army.

Xia Chuyi, looking at Huo Shiqian’s incredibly serious eyes and tone, felt inexplicably sweet inside, and involuntarily broke into a delighted grin, saying, "Brother Shiqian, you’re really wonderful!"

She threw herself into Huo Shiqian’s arms.

With his own girl throwing herself at him so willingly, even someone as composed as Huo Shiqian couldn’t help but let his lips curl upwards stealthily.

Huo Shiqian still held her, gently saying, "I will notify Huang Xiaoyun."

"The personnel in the Capital City can be fully under your command; there’s no need to hide anything."

As he said this, Huo Shiqian paused, then continued, "As for Xia Lan... I will have a word with Ou Jun."

Xia Chuyi, being in his embrace, couldn’t see the concealed annoyance in Huo Shiqian’s eyes.

"Ah, never mind!" Hearing Huo Shiqian’s words, Xia Chuyi immediately tilted her head up from his embrace and said, "Such a small matter, there’s no need for Brother Shiqian to step in!"

If he got involved, it would make the whole thing feel different—as if what Xia Lan was doing could endanger national security!

That’s why being too righteous can make one’s "enemies" seem like the villains of the world in no time.

Xia Chuyi, with a warm smile, said to Huo Shiqian, "Why use a sledgehammer to crack a nut? Shuqin has already agreed to thank Brother Ou for me."

Huo Shiqian’s lips twitched almost imperceptibly, his expression calm and composed as he said, "What I say to her will have a different effect."
