Campus Ace Girl-Chapter 655 - 656: Wang Yuan, why do you always speak for Gu Anxi?

Min Xin stared at Wang Yuan.

Wang Yuan nodded. "What are your thoughts?" 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

Min Xin closed his eyes. "In South Africa, Bo Xichen will surely go! This means if anything happens to Bo Xichen, she won’t spare us. If Bo Xichen returns safely..."

Wang Yuan slapped his thigh. "That’s precisely it. Think about it, even if Professor Bo brings that thing back, as long as..."

Min Xin squinted. "Right. As long as the technical talents here disappear, then even if they get it, they won’t be able to crack it."

Wang Yuan grew even more excited. "Exactly! As long as Professor Bo is safe, then this won’t concern us. Let Dark and the Bo Family fight it out."

Min Xin glared at him. "So by your reasoning, if Bo Xichen encounters danger in South Africa, I should send people to protect him?"

What’s the logic in that? He’s clearly on the opposing side, so why would I have to protect Old Wang’s people?

Wang Yuan tried to placate him. "I know you’re not happy, but right now, what choice do we have? Little Gu made herself very clear."

Min Xin scoffed. "So that’s why she was so concerned about my personal life. Turns out she had an ulterior motive."

Wang Yuan gave a bitter smile. "She’s openly threatening you. Think about your wife’s safety. Why not... just play the good guy this once? Besides, Professor Bo is very capable. If you were to replace Mr. Wang one day, you’d need a strong right-hand man like him, wouldn’t you?"

Min Xin thought for a moment. "You do have a point."

He beckoned Wang Yuan closer and instructed, "Deal with those top talents from Beicheng."

Wang Yuan instinctively asked, "How should they be dealt with?"

In the past, Min Xin would have adopted a sweeping, uncompromising approach. But now, he hesitated. He remembered what Gu Anxi had said. He had a child now, and he felt he should always leave some leeway in his actions. So he thought for a while and said, "Find a safe place to lock them up for now!"

Wang Yuan smiled. "That’s the right approach. Don’t offend either side."

Min Xin, however, sighed. "Wang Yuan, when have I ever been so soft-hearted?"

Wang Yuan flattered him, "You’re about to become a father. It’s natural to become a bit more kind-hearted."

His boss immediately glared at him. "Are you saying I wasn’t kind-hearted before?"

Wang Yuan quickly exclaimed, "Absolutely not!"

After some banter, they returned to serious matters. Wang Yuan said gravely, "This time, the bomb was developed by Hong Fu. You might not know this."

Min Xin was genuinely surprised. "It was her?"

Wang Yuan nodded. "Indeed, it was."

He sighed again. "Even if we retrieve that bomb, our top people might not be able to develop an interception system."

Min Xin’s expression turned gloomy. "We really need to be wary of her; we didn’t know about this before."

Wang Yuan agreed. "That’s right. After all, she’s always with Bo Qing. Her loyalties could have secretly shifted without us realizing."

Min Xin glanced at him suspiciously. "Wang Yuan, you’ve been acting strange lately."

Secretary-General Wang’s heart skipped a beat. "Strange in what way?"

Min Xin frowned. "You seem to be siding with Gu Anxi a lot lately."

Wang Yuan hastily denied, "Of course, I’m always thinking of your best interests, Mr. Min! I would never speak up for Little Gu. I despise Little Gu just as much as you do! She’s a little brat, a complete scoundrel, the kind of person everyone can’t stand!"

Min Xin waved his hand dismissively. "Enough, enough. You don’t even know how to curse someone properly! Besides, when did I ever say I despised her?"
