"Is what he said true?"

Ji Xiunian looked at Lu Xu standing in front of him with complicated emotions.

Lu Xu never thought about talking about this in front of customers, he just felt that Peng Hanfei was more annoying.

However, Ji Xiunian's gaze was impossible to ignore, stubbornly waiting for an answer.

Lu Xu didn't want to answer but didn't want to lie to him either, so he was silent for a while.

Peng Hanfei, on the other hand, sneered and said in a sarcastic tone: "It's the truth. Why don't you dare to admit it in front of him? Is it possible that during this period of lurking, you had a real feeling for the stowaway, so you didn't even have the courage to speak?"

Lu Xu didn't want to talk to Peng Hanfei. After a moment of silence, he said to Ji Xiunian, "That's pretty much it."

Lu Xu is not a person who particularly likes to explain, and he is even less likely to fully analyze his thoughts to others.

To a certain extent, Peng Hanfei is right.

His original intention was to come here to investigate the mystery of Ji Xiunian's immortality. If he was a stowaway, he would never tolerate it. This is a fact and there is really nothing to explain.

Peng Hanfei pursed his lips when he heard this and said to Ji Xiunian: "Well, you heard it all. You were originally the target of our Death Department's surveillance. As the person in charge, Lu Xu did not play a supervisory role and watched helplessly as you were saved. A dying man. This is considered dereliction of duty, and you are not innocent either."

Ji Xiunian didn't seem to hear what Peng Hanfei said. He just chased Lu Xu and asked, "Then you and I are needed for the mission?"

"No." Lu Xu shook his head, not lying.

Seeing that he didn't hesitate, Ji Xiunian felt a little more comfortable: "Have you considered me a friend for so long?"

This question made it difficult for Lu Xu to calm down and think about it. If he simply regarded Ji Xiunian as a single, he could just sit back and wait for something to happen to him.

However, he didn't and even helped Ji Xiunian more than once.

Lu Xu suddenly smiled at Ji Xiunian: "Brother Nian, don't you feel it yourself?"

The moment you ask many questions, you actually already have the answer in your mind.

Lu Xu just said this sentence, but it woke up Ji Xiunian.

Ji Xiunian, who originally felt deceived, was stunned for a moment, but felt relieved when he saw that Lu Xu still had a familiar smile on his face.

Maybe Lu Xu took him as a task at first, but no one stipulated that he couldn't care about the task midway.

Ji Xiunian thought this, and a smile appeared on his face.

Peng Hanfei said that they were just trying to cause trouble for Lu Xu, and also wanted Ji Xiunian to see what kind of person he thought his friend was.

However, the expected scene of fighting did not appear. In fact, the two people only had eyes for each other, as if they completely ignored his existence.

"...."

Seeing that they were still whispering, Peng Hanfei couldn't help but interrupt the atmosphere: "Ji Xiunian, I highly suspect that you are a stowaway, so I ask you to go to the underworld with me to cooperate with the investigation."

Before Lu Xu could speak, Ji Xiunian had already expressed his attitude: "You just have suspicions but no evidence. I have no obligation to cooperate with you." After saying this, he couldn't help but look back at Ji Xiunian, his eyes gradually firming up. , "And I am Lu Xu's client. Even if something happens, he will still be there..."
