"And this is?"
Beside Wang Qi was a beautiful woman.
At this moment, she looked a little unhappy and her expression was very cold. Perhaps it was because she saw through Dongli's deliberate touch with Wang Qi.
"Ah, she is"
"Hello, I'm a colleague from Wang Qi's unit. My name is Dongli.”
"Hello, my name is Luo Shu."
The woman replied politely, her tone slightly warmer.
Seeing this, Wang Qi could not help but scratch his head and said to Dong Li in embarrassment,""I didn't expect to meet you here.”
"I think so too," Dongli said as she looked at the two of them. She could not hide her curiosity anymore and said with a smirk,""Wang Qi, is this beauty your girlfriend?”
Wang Qi nodded generously.”
Although he didn't know whether Zhu Lin had agreed or not, he had already stepped down. Before the new director took office, the rules of the institute would not be effective for the time being, but Wang Qi still asked Dong Li to keep this secret for him.
"Alright, don't worry." Dong Li patted him on the shoulder and smiled at Luo Shu."" Then, you two can enjoy your time alone. I won't disturb you anymore. I'll be leaving first."
After bidding farewell to both of them, Dongli turned around and walked back to the dojo.
However, after a few steps, she turned around and looked at Wang Qi and Luo Shu.
The two of them were at a stall selling small items. Wang Qi and the boss were chatting and laughing. Luo Shu still had an expressionless face, but there was still some warmth in his eyes.
Nothing unusual.
His aura had also disappeared.
But just now, who was the one who released it? That evil chill that gave her goosebumps
Was it Wang Qi? Or Luo Shu?
However, there was clearly no problem.
During the conversation, Dongli had actually been checking their senses, but the results showed that their conditions were normal, no different from ordinary humans.
This result made her suspect that Zhu Lin had caused her to lose her ability, but that was obviously impossible. However, if Wang Qi and Luo Shu were excluded from the list of suspects, the list would be empty.
Wait, it could also be an expert
At the thought of this, Dong Li frowned.
Why couldn't it be? The other party knew that I knew Wang Qi, so he deliberately spread his aura on Wang Qi to lure me over. His goal was to make me suspect him and Luo Shu, and then he would have other plans.
Another operation
Wang Qi's position seemed to be in the opposite direction of the dojo.
Could it be?
The target was Zhou Xia?
Dong Li was shocked and quickly activated her ability. In the blink of an eye, she had returned to the dojo.
The short-haired man and the buzz-cut man were still standing at the door. The short-haired man was yawning and looked normal.
Dongli jogged up the steps. When she saw the two brothers, she only hurriedly greeted them before pushing the door open and entering. This made the two of them feel strange.
The scene inside the dojo was completely different from the one before Dongli left.
The crowd that had surrounded the arena had already disappeared. There was no one around, and the entire dojo had become empty again.
Da, da, da, da.
Other than the sound of her own footsteps, she could not hear any other sounds. This strange silence made Dong Li even more worried about Zhou Xia's safety. She could not help but want to send out the molecular elves to investigate the other party's location.
At this moment, a part of the white wall was opened, and a boy who seemed to have just changed into casual clothes walked out.
The boy saw Dongli's anxious and nervous expression and blinked his big eyes. Then, as if he had thought of something, he said to her,""Big Sister, are you looking for Senior Sister Zhou Xia?”
"Little brother, do you know where she is?”Dong Li's attention was attracted by the childish voice, and she stopped using her ability.
"The arena just ended. She should be in the lounge at the back.”The boy pointed at the wall he came out from.
Dong Li was stunned for a moment, then she slapped her forehead heavily.
She was really overwhelmed by worry. She had clearly known that there was a door there. Moreover, it was indeed possible that there was no one in the dojo for the time being because the arena was over.
" Thank you, little brother." Dong Li heaved a sigh of relief and gave the little boy a sweet smile to express her gratitude.
" You're welcome." The boy returned the same sweet smile and left.
Standing outside the door, Dongli first gently touched the meat bun that she had been hiding in her arms through her clothes. It was still hot. She could not help but want to share the joy of victory with Zhou Xia as soon as possible, so she pushed the door open and entered.
The renovation was very neat and concise.
The men's and women's breakrooms were separated into left and right, and there was a large table in the middle. It was probably used for meetings and discussions.
The washroom was further away, and there was a sign hanging on the wall of the girls 'lounge, thoughtfully guiding the newcomers.
Dongli went to the door of the girls 'lounge and was about to knock when she heard a discussion coming from inside. It seemed to be related to the arena this time.
"Why do you think Ning Xiang made such a big mistake in the first round? Sneezing during a competition! This is too funny, don't you think?”
"Isn't that so ~ Senior Sister Zhou Xia is really ruthless. She attacked without any mercy. Isn't she a little too serious? Hahaha!”
"She probably knew that she wasn't Ning Xiang's opponent, so she didn't let go of that opportunity. Speaking of which, tell me, isn't life full of wonders? No one expected this outcome."
"That's right. Senior Sister Zhou Xia actually lost the last two matches. It's too strange.”
"That's why she didn't let go of the opportunity to take advantage of him?”
"Aiya! Stop talking! The more you say, the more overboard you are!"
"What are you afraid of? Are you afraid that she will hear you? She must be crying in the toilet right now and won't be back for a while.”
"I wanted her to hear it! How humiliating."
"That's right. How are we going to raise our heads in front of Feng Yun and the others in the future?”
"Alright, alright! Don't say anymore!"
"That's what it is."
At this moment, Dongli's face had already experienced a round of rich expression changes, and finally, it was fixed on anger. She was surprised by Zhou Xia's failure, but she was even angrier at the group of people in the lounge who were full of nonsense.
Just as she was about to push the door open to vent her anger, she felt a familiar gaze appear beside her. She turned her head. It was indeed Zhou Xia, and he seemed to have changed into casual clothes.
"You, you, are you okay?" Like a child who had been caught playing a prank, Dong Li forced a smile at Zhou Xia uneasily.
Unexpectedly, the other party walked towards her calmly. As he held her arm, he smiled and said,"Sorry to keep you waiting ~ Let's go and start our party!”
"Ah?"
She had great doubts in her heart, but she did not dare to ask. She took out the meat bun and handed it to Zhou Xia. The other party accepted it readily and thanked her, but he did not eat it directly. Instead, he put it in his bag.
On the way to their destination, Dong Li had been carefully observing Zhou Xia's expression, but the result was no different from usual.
Her best friend's behavior was very normal. She did not look like someone who had lost a game that she should not have lost.
The only difference from the usual situation was that everything they bought today, including the restaurant bill for the two of them, was paid for by Dongli, and this was Zhou Xia's request.
"Why?"
"Because I spent all my savings more than a week ago." Zhou Xia pinched the corner of his shirt and revealed an embarrassed smile.
“.....”
"I'll return it to you in the future!"
"There's no need for that." Dongli waved her hand. Since they were best friends, there was no need to remember so clearly about treating once or twice. However, she could take the opportunity to test him. "You only need to answer one question of mine.”
"Hmm?" Zhou Xia scooped a spoonful of ice cream and put it in his mouth.
Dong Li hesitated for a while and said softly,""Will Ning Xiang also participate in the National Women's Sanda Competition?”
She had thought that the other party would change his expression after hearing this name, but it was once again beyond her expectations.
Zhou Xia only nodded and continued to focus on the food in front of him. He did not have any other reaction.
However, the more it was like this, the more Dongli felt that there was a problem.
If it was useless to ask tactfully, then he would go straight to the point.
"What's wrong? Is losing the dojo challenge that bad?”
