740: Chapter 727 Breakthrough (1)_1 740: Chapter 727 Breakthrough (1)_1 However, Situ Xin’s view on this changed unexpectedly one day.
The change in Situ Xin’s perspective happened after the child of i and Xiang Yang was born, when she visited i and the baby.
Watching the heartwarming scene of i and Xiang Yang holding and playing with the baby, Situ Xin suddenly felt that so aspects of The Dark Division needed to be improved.
For The Dark Division to rely solely on the funds allocated by the nation and the rewards earned from missions wasn’t a wise choice.
The forr ant they would always be dependent on the nation, and continuously put their lives on the line for the country without conditions.
Although this was The Dark Division’s original mission upon its establishnt, Situ Xin did not want The Dark Division to beco a tool of the state, a machine that unconditionally and endlessly carried out tasks for the country.
Taking on missions was also dangerous, with the risk of losing one’s life in a single misstep.
It wasn’t a big deal in the past when they were all solitary individuals, but now, starting with Xiang Yang and i, the mbers of The Dark Division were changing.
They were getting married or marrying off, having children, and with family, everyone would have concerns and things they hold dear.
So, a life of earning rewards through missions was not a good choice.
Originally, Situ Xin was worried about how to change the status quo, unable to find a breakthrough.
This ti, The Dark Division’s handling of the matter with the Gu Family sparked an idea.
Since she had never planned to let the Gu Family off the hook, why not transfer the ownership of the Gu Family’s company directly to The Dark Division’s na?
With elites from all walks of life within The Dark Division, handling the modest Gu Food was not difficult at all.
Wouldn’t this resolve the issue of The Dark Division’s funding source?
The mbers of The Dark Division wouldn’t have to keep taking on missions constantly.
Of course, Situ Xin wouldn’t let them slack off in their training.
Although they wouldn’t have to constantly take on missions to earn rewards, nor beco the nation’s tools, The Dark Division still had their own principles and loyalties.
They had their duties to perform, such as investigating and eliminating spies from other nations within Country H, tasks ant for The Dark Division.
As for those collateral mbers of the Xiao Family, there was even less need for Situ Xin to intervene—this was Xiao Muli’s responsibility.
It was up to him to deal with it, and he was the only one who could.
With that, Xia Yujie and Liu Yuxiang had nothing to do with it.
Liu Yuxiang couldn’t sit idle; such matters couldn’t go on without him.
He snatched the phone and complained to Situ Xin on the other end, demanding vehently that he personally help avenge his master.
However, Liu Yuxiang was silenced by a casual remark from Situ Xin.
She said he needn’t worry about revenge; instead, he should hurry up and give her a grandchild, which was the proper business to attend to.
At Situ Xin’s words, Liu Yuxiang had no more to say, no matter how much he had in mind.
Liu Yuxiang’s many words were cut short by Situ Xin’s teasing, and fearing that another word would lead to Situ Xin sending him directly to Lu Nini, he decisively said goodbye to Situ Xin and hung up the phone.
Ever since the day Xiao Muli and Situ Xin hurried back from the Xiao Family Old Mansion, Xiao Muli had been called to Situ Family’s study and stayed there for half a day.
Since then, Xiao Muli had disappeared from Situ Xin’s presence.
However, no matter what, he insisted on calling Situ Xin every night before she slept.
What puzzled Situ Xin was that every ti Xiao Muli called, the timing was impeccable—always just as she lay down in bed.
Concerned about this, Situ Xin had once asked Xiao Muli how he always managed to call at the perfect ti, almost as if he had placed sothing around her.
Xiao Muli simply laughed and replied, “We are just telepathically linked.” His response even caused Situ Xin to blush unconsciously.
On her way ho from school, Situ Xin found herself thinking of Xiao Muli, wondering what he might be doing at that mont.
At that very mont, Xiao Muli, busy dealing with the elders of the Xiao Family and the Gu Family mbers who couldn’t find Situ Xin and ca pleading to him instead, suddenly sneezed.
The sneeze startled his assistant, who wasn’t used to seeing such a thing.
“BOSS, are you coming down with a cold?
I’ll go call a doctor right away,” his assistant said, fearing that the sneeze was a sign of a cold, imagining his BOSS might have caught it due to his hectic schedule.
“I’m not sick, and don’t cause a fuss by calling a doctor.
Better you quickly finish the tasks at hand,” Xiao Muli said.
At first, he wondered why he had suddenly sneezed, but then he rembered hearing that a sneeze ant soone was thinking about you, and he automatically attributed those thoughts to Situ Xin.
On this occasion, Xiao Muli wasn’t mistaken about who was on his mind.
Feeling that Situ Xin was thinking of him, and missing her greatly, Xiao Muli, who was already working overti to deal with the parasites in the Xiao Family, picked up his pace to return to her sooner.
His action exhausted his people, who accompanied him to the Xiao Family, their dark circles a testimony to their fatigue.
Unaware that her thoughts had further accelerated Xiao Muli’s efforts, Situ Xin proceeded ho as usual.
“Grandpa, grandma, maternal grandfather, maternal grandmother, I’m back,” Situ Xin called out as she arrived at the front door.
However, as Situ Xin entered the house, she imdiately sensed that the atmosphere at ho was off.
Her grandparents and maternal grandparents smiled when they saw her, saying, “Baby’s back.”
But it was clear that their smiles were forced, very different from the heartfelt ones usually shared.
Situ Xin wondered what had happened at ho.
If sothing significant had transpired, she would have been notified at school through ssages from The Dark Division or the Dragon Society, but she had received nothing all day.
