Chapter 509 I'm not dirty, not dirty at all
"This statement is not right."
Gu Ziyi shook her head, said: "To be precise, Little Lu must leave."
Precisely because of this, Gu Ziyi had always held a sense of guilt towards Lu Shuhan. After all, she was the one who recruited her, yet she couldn't give Lu Shuhan a formal spot.
"I…"
A look of forbearance flashed in Ning Xi's eyes. Just as she was about to say something, she noticed Ye Fan's slight head-shaking gesture. She lowered her head and didn't make another sound.
Gu Ziyi often chatted with Ning Xi on WeChat, understood Ning Xi's personality very well. She explained in a slow voice: "Xiao Xi, I am now the captain and boss of the Qihai team. For every additional player in the team, a large sum of expenses will be added over a year."
"Moreover, now that I know Lu Shuhan… that about you, I can't let her stay in the team even more. Otherwise…"
Speaking to here, her gaze landed on Ye Fan, "This one will definitely have no mind for the competition. Out of both sentiment and reason, Little Lu leaving is the best result. Don't you think this logic is right?"
"That's right!"
Ye Fan interjected.
Ning Xi's jade-like nose wrinkled lightly. She patted Ye Fan's leg, reproached lightly: "Gege, can't you have a little confidence in me? I…"
Before Ning Xi could finish speaking, Ye Fan spoke up to interrupt, "Xiao Xi, I have great confidence in you. But one thing is one thing. I clearly know Lu Shuhan likes you, how could I be at ease letting you be in the same Go team with her? This is a matter of attitude!"
Gu Ziyi followed by speaking up, "This time I stand with Ye Fan. To give an analogy, if a boy likes Ye Fan…"
"Stop!"
The two spoke up at the same time to stop her.
Gu Ziyi laughed until her branches swayed . Spreading her hands, she blinked innocently, "I'm not being dirty, not dirty at all."
Ye Fan: "…"
Ning Xi: "…"
After the joke, Gu Ziyi's face turned serious, "Ye Fan, Xiao Xi; although my parents' finances are relatively well-off, wanting to acquire Qihai was not easy."
"Initially, whether it was Grandpa or my parents, they all disagreed with me acquiring Qihai. I spent a great deal of effort to get them to change their minds. Do you know why I was so insistent on acquiring Qihai?"
Ning Xi shook her head, her eyes sparkling with curiosity.
Instead, Ye Fan, after hearing Gu Ziyi's words, his thoughts turned at extreme speed. Under the blessing of level five intellect, in just a single thought, he came up with a reasonable explanation. Under the gazes of the two girls, he slowly raised his right hand.
"I should know."
In an instant, Ning Xi's face was full of question marks.
Clearly, she and Ye Fan had both just learned about the relationship between Gu Ziyi and the Qihai team. How could Ye Fan possibly know the reason for Gu Ziyi acquiring Qihai?
Equally confused was Gu Ziyi herself. She stared at Ye Fan's raised hand, froze for a full several seconds, exasperatedly rolled her eyes, pointed at the coffee table before her.
"Bullshit , if you know, I'll eat the coffee table!"
The reason for acquiring the Qihai team, apart from her grandpa and parents, she had never told anyone.
Ye Fan knows?
Nonsense!
Ye Fan smiled beamingly and glanced at the coffee table, "Is this statement true?"
"Nonsense!"
Gu Ziyi crossed her arms over her chest, said haughtily : "What if you say it wrong?"
"Same as you, eat the coffee table."
"Fine, it's a deal then!"
Gu Ziyi's face was full of teasing, "A real man's word is his bond. In front of Xiao Xi, I'm not afraid you'll go back on your word. Speak!"
Ye Fan crossed his legs with composure , spoke eloquently: "If I remember correctly, in the World Women's Team Championship at the beginning of the year, the three representing Xia Country were Mo Feifei, Zhou Yuling, and you."
"Among you three, Mo Feifei was the absolute main force. She led you two deadweights into the finals. But you and Zhou Yuling held Mo Feifei back, narrowly missing the championship."
"More than half a month ago, I happened to see a piece of news online. Genius Weiqi girl Mo Feifei terminated her contract with her team. If I haven't guessed wrong, your acquiring this Qihai team should be for Mo Feifei. Subsequently, Mo Feifei will most likely also join the Qihai team, right?"
The confidence on Gu Ziyi's face, accompanied by Ye Fan's fluent narration, gradually disappeared, replaced by a look of shock.
Light shone in the depths of Ye Fan's eyes. Although he hadn't received a response, the answer was already all written on Gu Ziyi's face. He continued: "Acquire Qihai, invite Mo Feifei to join, obtain next year's World Women's Team Championship spot in the Golden Saint Cup in early October. The final step is to help Mo Feifei reclaim the glory that originally belonged to her. This should be your plan."
Gu Ziyi's mouth gaped open, her eyes widening like saucers.
All correct!
Ye Fan's speculation and her plan had no discrepancies whatsoever!
At this moment, she even felt Ye Fan could read minds. Otherwise, how could he possibly know in such detail?
Truly...
Seen a ghost!!!
Ning Xi was astonished.
Gu Ziyi's demeanor had already given the result. Ye Fan was right!
With doubt, she looked at Ye Fan, completely bewildered , "Gege, how do you know these?"
"Pinched my fingers and calculated."
Curiosity, like an insect, made Ning Xi's heart itch. But Ye Fan just wouldn't say. Her red lips pouted slightly, her spirit-filled eyes turned around and around.
The next second, her left hand quietly climbed onto Ye Fan's waist, angrily and lowly threatened, "Are you going to say it or not?"
Ye Fan smiled with deep meaning, his lips slightly moved: "Can you bear to?"
"I… what's there not to bear? Hmph!"
Ning Xi turned her head and scoffed lightly, the small hand on Ye Fan's waist retracting without a trace.
Such an action silently interpreted what is called: saying the most hateful words, doing the most cowardly thing!
Perceiving the girl's action, the smile in Ye Fan's eyes was like a water droplet entering a lake, rapidly spreading.
"You, you… how do you know?"
After this short buffer, Gu Ziyi finally recovered, uncontrollably swallowed her saliva, her eyes astonished.
"Guessed. Just say if it's right or not?"
"…"
Gu Ziyi was silent.
The corners of Ye Fan's mouth lifted in a hidden arc. Actually, when Lu Shuhan was leaving just now, he had heard the sentence Gu Ziyi muttered in a low voice.
Plus, he usually liked to read some news. Under the blessing of level five intellect, he instantly connected these clues together, deducing the truth of the matter.
Gu Ziyi's face still held disbelief. She looked at Ye Fan with shock and uncertainty, her whole person falling into a state of confusion.
Being stared at like this, Ye Fan said unmoved: "Don't look at me like that, I'm not interested in you!"
"You…"
This time, Gu Ziyi was quite angered. This fellow is too petty!
Having gotten his revenge , Ye Fan's mood was exceptionally cheerful. He said: "To tell you the truth, these were all deduced. I am relatively good at deduction."
Gu Ziyi's face was full of disbelief.
Deduction?
Heh——
Ye Fan gently stroked the low ponytail behind Ning Xi, his face calm: "If you don't believe, you can ask Xiao Xi."
"This is indeed not false, Gege is very good at deduction."
Ning Xi confirmed, a smile curling on her lips, a look of pride appearing on her cheeks. She spoke softly: "Not long ago, Gege also helped the Order Bureau crack a major case, very formidable!"
Her showing-off appearance, a proper little girl. Paired with her animated demeanor, so cute it made a impulse rise in Ye Fan's heart, wanting to hold this little thing in his arms, and thoroughly knead her chubby little face.
As for Gu Ziyi, she was shocked into a daze. Ning Xi's words had an undeniably great impact on her.
Help the Order Bureau crack a case?
This…
"Xiao Xi."
"Hmm?"
"I suggest you change your boyfriend. Dating this kind of non-human guy is too… terrifying!"
