<h4>Chapter 1090: Chapter 1082: At a Loss</h4>


    Hearing that old Hua supported him like this, Xiao Yifei couldn’t help but feel a warmth in his heart. By rights, old Hua had no obligation to help Xiao Yifei this way. Although Xiao Yifei once saved old Hua’s life, old Hua had helped Xiao Yifei many times before, which was enough to make them even. So now, old Hua helping Xiao Yifei like this indeed moved him deeply.


    These thoughts prompted Xiao Yifei to want to thank old Hua, but recalling that day, he dismissed the idea, merely nodding heavily. On the other side, Ren Tianye’s mind was uneasy following themotion caused by Xiao Yifei today. Originally, he thought he only needed to wait quietly for people from the top toe.


    But he never expected the owner of the item toe looking for him voluntarily. That is something Ren Tianye never anticipated. Thinking of this, Ren Tianye couldn’t help but dial a phone number. The call was quickly connected, as if the line was meant specifically for Ren Tianye.


    "Hello? When are you sending someone over?" Ren Tianye’s tone sounded somewhat impatient, and the reason was naturally due to today’s encounter with Muyun. Hearing Ren Tianye’s tone, the person on the other end of the line became a bit exasperated and said, "Why do you care so much? Just take good care of the item, and that will suffice."


    Hearing the impatience from the other end, Ren Tianye also became somewhat irritated. "When exactly are you sending someone to pick up the cargo? Give me a definite answer, or don’t even think about getting those things." Ren Tianye’s tone was extremely firm, and this was the first time he spoke to the person on the other end in such a manner.


    Sure enough, hearing Ren Tianye’s tone, the person on the other end of the line’s voice became deeper, "Think about whom you’re talking to!" Hearing this, Ren Tianye suddenly realized it must be due to Xiao Yifei making him worried today, which led him to speak that way.


    "Damn, it’s all because of that Xiao Yifei," Ren Tianye muttered quietly. However, the person on the other end carelessly heard him clearly, "What did you say?" Assuming it was about himself, the person sounded a bit angry.


    Hearing this, Ren Tianye quickly said, "No, I mean, pleasee take the cargo as soon as possible. I’m worried." Ren Tianye’s tone became much more respectful, and the person on the other end seemed to pick up on Ren Tianye’s increased respect, so their tone naturally became less angry.


    "I understand, I’lle over as soon as I can. But what are you worried about?" The person on the other end sounded a bit confused, not knowing what Ren Tianye meant. "Juste quickly." Ren Tianye sighed and helplessly hung up the phone.


    "Bang!" Ren Tianye mmed the table hard, appearing quite furious. His eyes turned icy cold, and in his mind, it was full of images of Xiao Yifei.


    In the Central Bureau in Beijing, Xiao Yifei found Hua Xiangrong. However, Hua Xiangrong seemed very surprised by Xiao Yifei’s visit, "What are you here for?" Hua Xiangrong asked, looking at the hurried Xiao Yifei with a puzzled expression. Hearing this, Xiao Yifei smiled and, emting the joke Hua Xiangrong once made with him, said, "What, came to see you for a chat."


    Hearing Xiao Yifei’s words, Hua Xiangrong actually blushed a bit and quickly turned around to pick up the files on the table. It seemed they didn’t want Xiao Yifei to see their awkward expression. However, Xiao Yifei didn’t think much of it, assuming Hua Xiangrong had some other things to attend to.


    "Really missing me?" Hua Xiangrong, with his back to Xiao Yifei, asked because hearing Xiao Yifei not respond for a while aroused some confusion in his heart. Xiao Yifei didn’t understand why Hua Xiangrong would ask that, but this visit was entirely about Ren Tianye’s matter.


    "No, no, there’s something I need to talk to you about." Xiao Yifei said with a carefree smile. Hearing Xiao Yifei’s words, Hua Xiangrong couldn’t help but feel a bit disappointed. Even he thought his reaction was strange; the sudden disappointment left him at a loss.


    However, suppressing these emotions, Hua Xiangrong still slowly turned around to face Xiao Yifei and asked coldly, "What’s the matter?"


    Seeing this, Xiao Yifei felt a bit confused, not knowing why Hua Xiangrong’s mood changed so drastically in just a few seconds. Thus, his tone became somewhat unnatural, "Well, it’s about my silver needle..." he said, curiously observing Hua Xiangrong’s reaction.


    However, she remained in a cold demeanor with no changepared to before. "Speak," Hua Xiangrong said, turning around to organize the files on her own. Seeing Hua Xiangrong like this, Xiao Yifei was suddenly a bit at a loss because it was the first time he’d seen Hua Xiangrong like this.


    "Are you okay?" Xiao Yifei tentatively asked, while also moving to stand in front of Hua Xiangrong. Hearing this, Hua Xiangrong shook her head, not looking at Xiao Yifei. Seeing the shake of Hua Xiangrong’s head, Xiao Yifei broke into a grin, "Good to hear you’re okay, I thought something was wrong."


    This statement seemed to trigger Hua Xiangrong, who looked up at Xiao Yifei, her face full of indignation. Before Xiao Yifei could react, he felt a sharp pain under his foot; Hua Xiangrong’s foot was fiercely stamping down on Xiao Yifei’s foot.


    "Ah!" A stunning scream erupted in therge police station, startling everyone. And at this moment, Hua Xiangrong, stepping on Xiao Yifei’s foot, was furiously venting her anger.


    "It hurts, it hurts," Xiao Yifei said, looking at Hua Xiangrong with a pleading expression. Hearing this, Hua Xiangrong finally released her foot and, casting a sideways nce at Xiao Yifei, turned her head away. After his foot was released, Xiao Yifei quickly shook his foot since Hua Xiangrong’s previous stomp was really painful.


    "What are you doing?" Xiao Yifei’s tone sounded a bit helpless, yet a bit amused. Hearing this, Hua Xiangrong snorted coldly, "Who told you to make me mad?" Xiao Yifei was immediately baffled, not knowing what exactly he had done to anger Hua Xiangrong.


    Previously, in Xiao Yifei’s eyes, Hua Xiangrong was always gentle and charming, but unexpectedly, Hua Xiangrong had moments akin to Qianxi when she lost her temper. It’s true what they say, birds of a feather flock together; when angered, she seemed even fiercer than Qianxi.


    Thinking this, Xiao Yifei looked at Hua Xiangrong with an aggrieved expression. Communicating with girls is really like apanying a tiger. But after being stomped like that, Xiao Yifei’s foot stopped hurting gradually, and thus he didn’t bother to argue with Hua Xiangrong. "I came to talk about something, can we discuss that first, please, mydy?" Xiao Yifei pleaded, looking at Hua Xiangrong.


    Hearing this, Hua Xiangrong nodded, but her expression still appeared very haughty. Seeing this, Xiao Yifei decided not to mind anymore, and so he began to speak about the purpose of his visit today. "I found that silver needle of mine."


    Quite surprised by what Xiao Yifei said, Hua Xiangrong curiously looked at him. Evidently, what Xiao Yifei mentioned piqued her curiosity. "Found it?" Hua Xiangrong asked tentatively.


    Xiao Yifei nodded, confirming he was speaking the truth. "However, it seems the person isn’t willing to return it easily." Xiao Yifei said, appearing somewhat helpless. Hearing this, Hua Xiangrong was puzzled. This item was supposed to be stolen goods, so why wouldn’t it be handed over?
