Chapter 1254: Chapter 1253: Xue Tongtong, Say Ah~ Open Wide~

"I also think Han Shang is kind of weird..."

Xia Xi pressed her lips together, deep in thought.

The Han Shang now is completely different from before. You can feel it in his eyes, his expression, his aura—everything.

You have to know...

Back then they all went through that period; they knew very well how decisive and ruthless Han Shang used to be.

Gu Tong nodded and said, "So I think Han Shang hasn’t been reborn..."

"But if that’s the case, then why is he so good to you, and how does he know the name ’Xue Tong’..." Xia Xi paused slightly, then said, "That doesn’t add up either..."

The original theory now contradicts the facts; anything they discuss turns into a paradox.

They felt this whole thing was beyond bizarre, yet they just couldn’t figure out where the key problem lay.

After going back and forth, they ended up in a stalemate...

...

’Rip--’

The tent flap was tugged open again.

A pair of black leather shoes stepped into the tent first. Han Shang walked in slowly, his King’s aura completely innate, and said, "I heard from Amis that you woke up!"

It was only a few words, yet they were full of an indescribable feeling, like he’d finally put down all his worry.

This was an emotion the Han Shang of the past should never have had toward the current Gu Tong.

Inside the tent, Gu Tong and Xia Xi were a bit dumbstruck. They had no idea what medicine Han Shang was selling in his gourd.

Gu Tong lifted the blanket off herself, wanting to stand up, and said, "Mm, it’s nothing serious anymore."

Han Shang stopped her. "The Sicuro Mafia members haven’t eaten yet. The operation is still about an hour away. You can rest a bit longer."

"..." Since when do Sicuro Mafia members take that long to eat in the middle of a mission...

You have to know, Sicuro’s meal requirements are even stricter than the Academy’s three-minute rule. When they were on missions before, they always stuck to a seven-minute mealtime.

Five minutes to prep and heat the rations, two minutes to eat.

And now Han Shang is saying an hour...

Totally unconvincing.

Xia Xi coughed, lowered her head to glance at Gu Tong; her eyes clearly said, ’The small boss is opening a back door for you.’

Gu Tong ignored Xia Xi’s eye signals.

"..." Xia Xi’s mouth twitched twice as she lifted her head.

However, at the instant she raised her head, Xia Xi froze for a moment.

Because...

The Sicuro Mafia small boss, Han Shang, was staring straight at her!

"???" The hell! What’s he staring at her for... Han Shang’s eyes were icy cold, making Xia Xi’s skin crawl; scared her half to death...

Xia Xi felt a bit awkward and said, "Small boss, do you need something?"

Han Shang’s gloomy expression didn’t change. His thin lips parted as he said, "Beckett has prepared dinner for Miss Xia Xi."

"..." Beckett prepared dinner for her too??? Could he be any more considerate...

Xia Xi’s heart was full of questions, but even more full of doubt.

Her eyelids drooped; she was just about to say something when she suddenly caught sight of the bowl of soup in her hand...

Uh...

She kind of understood what small boss Han Shang meant now...

He was hinting that since Beckett had made dinner for her, she should give this bowl of soup back to Xue Tong.

Damn! Does he have to be that stingy!

Hmph, it’s just a bowl of soup, it’s not like she has to snatch it from Xue Tong. He’s totally judging a gentleman with a petty heart!

Xia Xi couldn’t be bothered with Han Shang anymore. She squatted down, pinched the spoon between two fingers, scooped up a spoonful of soup, and said, "Xue Tongtong, c’mon~ open up~"

Gu Tong’s mouth twitched twice. "..." What is this girl up to now...
