Forced to Date a Big Shot

C761: Time to Pay

Fang Yi did not expect Xiang Huai to be so ruthless. He clearly would have been able to reduce Qian Xin’s sentence by giving Pei Ren a light punishment, but he actually did not go with that.

Was it just to avenge Xue Xi?

It’s true that this outcome would be the most advantageous to Fang Yi—after all, if Qian Xin was released, the God of Fortune Group would be returned to him. All the calculations and efforts she had made previously would be in vain. However, when she thought that Xiang Huai was doing this all because of Xue Xi, she felt her chest tighten.

Before Fang Yi could speak, Fang Ming had already recovered from the suppression he felt. He lowered his head and said, “We’ll do as you say.”

Just as Fang Yi was about to say something, Xiang Huai waved his hand and someone walked in. He grabbed Pei Ren and led him out.

Anger appeared in Pei Ren’s eyes. Just as he was about to say something, he saw Fang Yi showing him a calm expression. Only then did he suppress all his emotions and obediently follow the person out.

After he left, the monitoring team quietened down.

Seeing that his boss had no intention of leaving, Jing Fei recalled his boss’s words last night. Hence, he silently raised the next topic. “Then who is in charge of the God of Fortune Group now?”

Fang Yi looked at Fang Ming.

Fang Ming also pondered for a moment and probed, “The P9 and P10 from the Military Affairs Department have important positions and can’t be transferred out for the time being. Other than Jing Fei and Zheng Zhi, the Police Department doesn’t have many P8s. In contrast, Fang Yi is more free. I think it’s better to let Fang Yi do it...?”

The moment he said this, Fang Yi looked at Xiang Huai.

She was the only person in the department who was a P10 but did not have a job! She looked like an inconsequential employee, but she also understood that this was because of Fang Ming’s existence.

As an esper, Xiang Huai clearly had a high position in the special department, but he still had to be monitored by three ordinary old men. No matter who it was, they would be unhappy.

Especially... Fang Yi knew Xiang Huai very well. This man had never been a disciplined person.

After accepting the special department post, he had been weakening the existence of the monitoring team. In the past, the monitoring team had had an extraordinary position in the special department. In recent years, they had only become a small department that could only control the internal rules!

As Fang Ming’s niece, Fang Yi had always thought that she had not been put in an important position by Xiang Huai because she had been implicated by Fang Ming.

This was also why she, who loved power, became even more obsessed with it.

However, it was also because of this that after the God of Fortune Group’s posting was vacated, she made Fang Ming suggest that the most senior Pei Ren take over instead of her.

Now that Pei Ren could not do it either, if she could... would Xiang Huai agree?

She looked at Xiang Huai uneasily and saw that the man was indeed silent. The face behind the black mask was hard to see, and she could not understand his thoughts.

After some time, Xiang Huai spoke again. “Sure.”

Fang Yi heaved a sigh of relief.

Success!
