Chapter 675 - Little Chatterbox’s Superpower~
Xue Xi was confused again.
Would she agree to anything? Would she agree to such a request?
She looked at the man in front of her.
Although his long and narrow eyes looked deep and innocent, they were filled with warmth as he looked at her. His facial features were exquisite, but his sharp features melted for her.
Hmm…
If he had pleaded coquettishly back then, she could not have rejected such a request, right?
At this thought, Xue Xi said, “Okay.”
Xiang Huai raised an eyebrow.
He did not expect it to go so smoothly this time.
He smiled and said, “Are you feeling unwell?”
Xue Xi shook her head.
Xiang Huai patted her shoulder and said, “It should be fine. I’ll go settle the discharge procedures for you.”
Xue Xi nodded.
After Xiang Huai left, Xue Xi picked up her phone and sent Omnipotent Boss a WeChat message: “Teacher, I think I’ve awakened my special power. I heard from Little Pigeon that I could fly, but I don’t have any memories of that time. May I ask what happened?”
Xue Xi did not know how much Xiang Huai knew about espers, so she could not ask him about some things and could only ask Omnipotent Boss.
Omnipotent Boss replied quickly: “Using a special power consumes a lot of mental strength. This is a side effect. It’s fine.”
Xue Xi heaved a sigh of relief. She was really afraid that her body was not well.
She asked further: “Teacher, do you know what my compensation is? Moreover, why can’t I fly now?”
Omnipotent Boss: “You’ve overused your mental strength and have been relatively weak recently. As for compensation, everyone’s compensation varies. Don’t mind it too much.”
Xue Xi continued to ask: “Then what should I take note of now?”
…
Outside the door, Xiang Huai was leaning against the wall. After replying to the message on his phone, he stared at the chat for a while. Suddenly, his lips curled up and he typed again: “Study less during this period and rest more. Don’t you have a boyfriend? You can take this chance to spend more time with him.”

After he sent the message, Xue Xi slowly replied: “Oh, alright.”
Having achieved his goal, Xiang Huai put away his phone and looked up at the two people in front of him.
Jing Fei said, “Boss, what exactly happened to Sister Xi?”
After awakening her special power, how could her mental power become so weak? She would faint after using it and would only recover after sleeping for an entire day.
Xiang Huai clenched his jaw. “The explanation I gave her was that her mental strength is relatively weak.”
Jing Fei: “…”
Sister Xi’s special ability genetic test had such strong results. How could her mental strength be weak? It must be because a drug had suppressed her special ability!
Jing Fei looked around and saw that Zheng Zhi had yet to come out of the washroom. Hence, he said, “Boss, who exactly has such a feud with Sister Xi that they’d actually suppress her special power?”
Xiang Huai narrowed his eyes. “I’ll investigate this matter, but I don’t want a third person to know.”
Jing Fei instantly extended his hand and made a zipping motion on his mouth. “Boss, don’t look at me like that. I’m afraid! Don’t worry, my mouth is definitely sealed tight!”
Xiang Huai did not speak further and walked toward the infirmary of the special department hospital.
This was a special consultation for espers, and the doctor inside still needed to be given some instructions.
After Xiang Huai left, Jing Fei was thinking when someone suddenly patted his shoulder. He turned around and saw Zheng Zhi standing there with an ugly expression. “What did you say to Boss just now?”
Jing Fei casually spouted nonsense. “Damn, it’s just that Boss asked us to take care of Sister Xi more. After all, Sister Xi is… special. Look, she fainted after using her special power. Her mental strength is too weak, so we have to take care of her more from now on!”
Zheng Zhi sneered. “Special treatment again? Ha, our special department has always been a department that abides by the rules. How many special cases have there been because of her?
“A person with such weak mental strength is really useless. I feel that instead of instructing us to take care of Xue Xi, Boss might as well tell her not to go to dangerous places! Is she the only woman who can go to the battlefield? Now that she’s injured, we’re still the ones being scolded!”
Jing Fei: “Stop talking. Let me tell you, Sister Xi is not as weak as you think. She…”
“What’s wrong with her? If she’s not weak, why would she lie there? Ha, I know you’re afraid of Boss. Lackey, if you don’t want to talk, I’ll go!”
After saying that, Zheng Zhi pushed open the door and walked in.
…
After Xiang Huai left the ward, Xue Xi got up from the bed and prepared to be discharged.
In the end, the door was pushed open again and Qin Shuang hurriedly walked in. “Sister Xi, I heard that you’re injured? Is it serious?”
Xue Xi paused. “Aren’t you filming?”
Qin Shuang’s expression froze before she smiled. “Yes, but I don’t have any scenes today, so I planned to look for you guys. In the end, I heard that you were hospitalized, so I rushed over.”
Just as she said this, the ward door was pushed open again.
Zheng Zhi walked in with a straight face. “Xue Xi, consider yourself lucky this time, but no one can guarantee what will happen next time, so don’t force yourself if you don’t have the ability! Just do your civilian work in the future!”
After saying that, he thought of something and said, “Back then, I asked you to go to the internet department to help, but you didn’t go. Coincidentally, they’re still doing that worldwide surveillance system. You should go help them later!”
Xue Xi: “?”
Zheng Zhi had always been inflexible and felt that Xue Xi was simply causing trouble. The more he spoke, the angrier he became and the worse his words became. “Do you really think that you can do anything just because you’re good at studying? But do you know how much trouble you’ve brought us? You…”
Qin Shuang interrupted him. “Who are you? Who allowed you to say that about Sister Xi?”
Jing Fei, who had chased him, also said, “Son, shut up! Aren’t you afraid of death?”
Boss was still around. He might hear him. By then, Zheng Zhi would definitely be in a worse state!
If Jing Fei had not said this, Zheng Zhi could still have controlled himself. However, when he said this, Zheng Zhi became even angrier.
Boss had always been fair and strict, but now, he was actually protecting this woman…
Zheng Zhi became even angrier. “I’ve already said it today. Boss is muddle-headed. I can’t watch him make a mistake! Even if he punishes me, I’ll still say these words! My mouth is mine. I’ll say whatever I want. Xue Xi has always…”
Just as he said this, he suddenly heard a crisp angry shout. “Shut up!”
Zheng Zhi: “?”
Jing Fei: “?”
The two of them turned around in unison and saw Qin Shuang pointing at Zheng Zhi angrily. The girl’s black hair was draped behind her back and her porcelain-white face was filled with anger. Her almond-shaped eyes were widened and she looked at Zheng Zhi coldly. When she said those words, they gave off an inexplicable sense of command.
Zheng Zhi felt even more amused.
An ordinary person actually dared to order him to shut up?
Why?
He said, “I won’t shut up!”
However, when he opened his mouth, he realized—No sound?
