63: Nighttime Plans

“These next few days are the best time to resolve this.”

“She’s suffering from the backlash of her spirit pet’s death, so these next few days are when she’s weakest.”

“We need to take advantage of her weakness and successfully deal with her.”

Su Mianmian said with a cold expression.

The fact that she could sign the lowest-level contract with this spirit pet indicated that she wasn’t a good person.

If she were good, it would have been an equal contract.

Su Mianmian wouldn't feel sad for bad people.

Especially when she heard book book say that the spirit pet clearly looked like it had been frequently beaten and scolded, she felt even less emotion.

Su Mianmian just wanted to get rid of her quickly now.

As for other matters, she didn’t want to bother with them at the moment.

Shi Xu nodded, looking at Su Mianmian, who was busy attending to him, and couldn't help but feel a pang of heartache.

“Mianmian, you’ve worked hard. I won’t let you work so hard again in the future.”

Shi Xu promised with a smile.

Su Mianmian, however, was indifferent. Shi Xu had helped her a lot too, so helping him now, she had no complaints.

Shi Xu left to make arrangements.

Su Mianmian pulled back the curtains and looked across.

Her eyes were fixed on the thirty-eighth floor opposite, as if she wanted to see that person through the reinforced concrete.

When Su Mianmian went out, she heard noisy discussions.

Xu Qing thought that person probably wouldn't dare to do anything and could be ignored.

Su Jinxuan, on the other hand, believed that they must eliminate future troubles.

Listening to their heated discussion, Su Mianmian looked at Shi Xu, who hadn't spoken a word the entire time.

His expression was calm, as if their words hadn't reached his ears.

Su Mianmian couldn't help but wonder what Shi Xu was thinking.

She slowly walked over to Shi Xu, reached out and tugged him, “What are you thinking about?”

Su Mianmian was worried that Shi Xu would be influenced by Xu Qing’s words and really ignore that person.

If that were the case, it would be dangerous.

Su Mianmian’s worried expression was impossible for Shi Xu not to notice.

He shook his head, pondering, “I’m thinking if tonight would be a good time to go.”

Upon hearing this, Su Mianmian quickly nodded in agreement, “I think it’s a good idea. These next few days are the only good time, so we should deal with this matter quickly.”

Seeing Su Mianmian agree, Shi Xu finally made up his mind.

He ignored the two noisy people and directly announced, “We’ll act tonight.”

Xu Qing and Su Jinxuan immediately fell silent upon hearing this.

Su Jinxuan didn't have much of a reaction; he was already on the side that agreed to deal with it.

Xu Qing was a little confused. He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but Shi Xu looked at him coldly, and he swallowed his words.

When Shi Xu made up his mind, a hundred oxen couldn’t pull him back. Xu Qing thought about it and finally stopped refusing.

After seeing everyone settle down, Su Mianmian began to explain why they needed to eliminate future troubles.

After hearing what Su Mianmian said, Xu Qing felt extremely guilty.

“Boss, I’m sorry, I didn’t know things were so complicated.”

“If I had known, I definitely wouldn’t have said anything extra.”

Xu Qing was someone who corrected his mistakes. When he realized his thinking was off, he immediately apologized.

His expression was very remorseful. Seeing this, Su Mianmian said on behalf of Shi Xu, “I knew Shi Xu wouldn’t explain all this. He probably just gave you commands, which led to you not being clear about the whole situation.”

Su Mianmian had a smile on her face, and there was a hint of playfulness in her eyes as she looked at Shi Xu.

Shi Xu smiled back at her, a little helplessly.

Xu Qing gave Su Mianmian a thumbs-up. Although he didn’t speak, his actions already conveyed his answer.

Shi Xu didn't waste any more time. His gaze changed, becoming serious.

According to Shi Xu’s plan, they would take an inflatable boat to the building next door in the middle of the night.

However, Shi Xu didn't say how they would deal with that person.

Su Mianmian looked at him curiously, not understanding what other plans he had.

“Shi Xu, just say what’s on your mind.”

“How to deal with that person, I don’t believe you haven’t thought of it.”

Su Mianmian looked at Shi Xu seriously. She felt that he always liked to hide things from them.

This behavior really needed to change.

Shi Xu hesitated. He looked at Su Mianmian, then turned to look at the others.

Just as he was indecisive, Su Mianmian spoke, “Are you worried that person is too powerful, and we’ll be in danger if we get involved, so you want to go alone?”

Su Mianmian looked exasperated. Why was Shi Xu always like this?

She felt that everything she had said before was pointless.

When the others heard her say this, they all looked at Shi Xu with disapproval, their faces full of anger.

Shi Xu lowered his head helplessly, and when he looked up again, there was a glimmer of light in his eyes.

Having someone understand him was indeed something that made him both helpless and pleasantly surprised.

“I was wrong. I won’t do this again in the future.”

“If that person is on the thirty-eighth floor, we’ll try not to alarm anyone on other floors and go directly to the thirty-eighth floor.”

“What makes me a little hesitant is, if there are many people living on the thirty-eighth floor, how will we know who its owner is?”

“And if we only kill one person, will it make others hate us?”

Shi Xu said, rubbing his chin, looking troubled.

This matter had indeed troubled him for a while, which was evident from his expression.

Normally, Shi Xu wouldn't frown occasionally or constantly be in deep thought.

After hearing what Shi Xu said, Su Mianmian finally understood why he hadn’t spoken when Xu Qing and Su Jinxuan were arguing. It turned out he was troubled by this.

She communicated with book book in her space using her mind, wanting to see if it had any ideas.

Seeing her troubled by this, book book told her to take a feather from the small bird and instructed her on how to use it to find its owner.

After listening, Su Mianmian’s eyes instantly lit up.

“Alright, I know how to find its owner now, so you don’t need to think about this anymore.”

“As for what to do if there are other people?”

“Don’t we have knockout drops?”

“Before going in, couldn’t we just knock out everyone inside?”

Su Mianmian felt that these were not issues. She liked such simple and crude methods of handling things.

Upon hearing this, Shi Xu reached out and patted Su Mianmian’s shoulder, saying with a smile, “Mianmian, you’re amazing!”

It had to be said that Su Mianmian was indeed becoming smarter and smarter.

Su Jinxuan also looked at Su Mianmian with a smile, very proud of her.

Shi Xu didn't often praise people, but he frequently praised Su Mianmian.

This was enough to show that her charm was limitless.

Although Su Jinxuan thought his sister was the best, he often worried about why Shi Xu had fallen for Su Mianmian.

Now, he no longer worried. Su Mianmian herself was the reason he liked her.

His sister was so smart; it would be abnormal not to like her.

After the discussion, Shi Xu began to arrange manpower and prepare the necessary tools.

Su Mianmian couldn’t help, so she saw Butler Li cooking alone and went over to help him.

Butler Li had awakened a water-based ability, which was very convenient for them.

The water in the house was basically supplied by him.

At one o’clock in the morning, Shi Xu took Su Mianmian, Su Jinxuan, and Xu Qing out.

Upon reaching the sixth floor, Su Jinxuan and Xu Qing inflated the inflatable boat.

After it was inflated, the two of them threw it into the water like trash.

They both jumped into the inflatable boat first, and Su Mianmian jumped before Shi Xu.

She was a little nervous when she jumped.

Sitting in this thing later, she was a bit worried it might capsize.

“Don’t be afraid, it’s very safe.”

“I’ll help you, just jump down.”

“They will catch you.”

Shi Xu noticed Su Mianmian’s fear. He reached out to support her and comforted her.

Su Mianmian nodded, gaining courage. She jumped down without thinking.

It swayed a bit at first, but Su Jinxuan caught her in time.

Shi Xu descended steadily. Seeing everyone present, Xu Qing steered the boat to the building next door.
