The Genius System Without Equal

“Sir, please show us your ID card.”

Xiao Luo was stopped by three members of the airport staff, who were also the security personnel responsible for the airport"s safety. They already had their eyes on him when he kicked the rubbish bin, and now that he was dragging around a female pa.s.senger who was about to board the flight, they found him exceptionally suspicious and thus approached him.

“It"s none of your business. Get lost!”

Xiao Luo shouted at them immediately. His mood was already terrible, to begin with, so his att.i.tude was appalling.

“Sir, please cooperate with us.”

The security personnel in charge repeated in a more serious tone. At the same time, some of the airport auxiliary police noticed the situation and headed over quickly. They placed their hands on the batons that were at the side of their waist.

Xiao Luo was slightly annoyed and was about to push them away, but Ji Siying held onto him tightly. She shook her head, indicating for him not to create any trouble.

Trying his best to suppress the frustration, he quickly found an excuse and said: “She"s my girlfriend. We had a small argument, and she got so angry that she said she wanted to leave. You guys should stop overthinking; it"s nothing much.”

Girlfriend?

Ji Siying"s face turned red, and she thought to herself—who the h.e.l.l is your girlfriend!

At the same time, she pinched Xiao Luo"s waist.

Xiao Luo turned his head, “Why did you pinch me?”

“No… no reason why…”

Ji Siying was already blus.h.i.+ng. She looked down and tried to avoid looking into Xiao Luo"s eyes. She no longer had any intentions of leaving anymore when this man appeared here and then forcefully dragged her away from the security checkpoint. She knew that she had already occupied a significant position in this man"s heart, and it didn"t bother her anymore even when she wasn"t clear about where their relations.h.i.+p would lead. She was satisfied and happy as long as she could stay by his side.

The security personnel noticed the intimacy between them and no longer had any suspicion toward Xiao Luo.

“It"s normal for couples to have small arguments, but don"t take your anger out on the airport rubbish bin. We"ll let you go this time around, but don"t ever do that again!” The head of the security personnel coughed a little and reprimanded.

Ji Siying quickly laughed along and nodded her head, “Yes, we won"t do it again… we won"t do it again.”

The three security personnel then walked away. The airport auxiliary police that came over from a distance also stood down and holstered their arms.

Xiao Luo continued dragging Ji Siying with him and headed for the airport exit.

“You can let go of me now; I won"t leave anymore.”

Ji Siying gave in to Xiao Luo. Although it felt good having Xiao Luo grabbing onto her hand, she kept thinking of her luggage and ID that she left behind. It was going to be quite troublesome if she were to really lose them.

Xiao Luo stopped and turned around to look at her with a bit of doubt. “You"re not lying to me?” he asked.

“I"m really not lying to you. Look, the security checkpoint is already closed, and the plane is about to take off. Even if I wanted to, there"s nowhere for me to go.”

Ji Siying sighed and said, “My luggage is still there, and there are many important things inside. I can"t lose them.”

Xiao Luo could tell that she meant it and finally believed that she would no longer try to leave. Hence, he let go of her.

Ji Siying looked at her wrist that was numb. There were still some marks that Xiao Luo left behind, and with a grievous look, she said, “It"s so painful!”

“I"m sorry!”

Xiao Luo avoided Ji Siying"s accusing eyes and said, “I didn"t do it intentionally.”

“That means you did it on purpose then,” Ji Siying said, pouting her lips.

“It wasn"t on purpose. Your hand is just too fine and tender,” Xiao Luo replied.

“Pft!”

Ji Siying couldn"t help but laugh a little, and for the first time, she thought that this man could be rather cute.

…

“Because of you, I couldn"t even work properly. As long as I"m not doing something else, images of you keep appearing in my head again and again. That"s why I was thinking of changing my workplace and adjust myself to a new environment.”

In the car, this was the answer that Ji Siying gave when Xiao Luo asked her why she chose to leave. She had already taken off her sungla.s.ses, and her eyes resembled a pair of peaches and looked as gentle as clear water. She gazed at Xiao Luo as sitting in the driver"s seat with deep admiration.

Xiao Luo stepped on the brakes and stopped the car immediately.

He turned his head to her and said, “Ji Siying, please take note of the things that I"m about to say. Stop thinking of leaving. When you became the liaison for a demon, your destiny has already been closely tied together with that demon. Even if you try your best to escape, you can never run away from his long reach. Even if you escape till the ends of the earth, he will still be able to find you and bring you back, do you understand?”

The tone he used made it sound like he would never allow anyone to defy him.

Ji Siying felt her heartbeat race. Her face started becoming warmer, and she was about to turn red. Her eyes were a little bit teary, and she said, “You"re bullying me!”

“You can"t blame me for that. You asked for it!”

Xiao Luo couldn"t make her any promise, but there was something that he was really sure of, and it was that he"d never allow this woman to leave his side.

He recalled the night of the lantern festival, at the roof of the house in the countryside. He lent her a shoulder to cry on as they gazed at the colorful fireworks that filled the night sky, and he was very touched. That was the very moment that Ji Siying left a mark inside his heart. He never gave it much thought, but it all changed when he found out that she was about to leave.

He stepped on the pedal after he said that, and the car screeched away like an arrow. The speed was insanely fast.

“Nemesis, you"ll turn out to be my nemesis!”

Ji Siying shed a tear, but she chuckled to herself. She stared at Xiao Luo with much affection, and she could see nothing else right now. In her eyes, all she could see was Xiao Luo, and she would forever remember this warmth that she felt right now and was resolved to do her best as his liaison officer.

…

When he sent Ji Siying back to NSA headquarters, Xiao Luo went to meet Gu Zhanguo.

Gu Zhanguo and Dongfang Zhuoyu welcomed him with smiles on their faces. But when Xiao Luo stepped into the office, he only had an indifferent look on his face.

Gu Zhanguo still had a sly smile on his face. “Why the long face? You"ve already completed the first mission successfully, and Nightbird is back too, but yet you don"t seem very happy. What"s going on here?” he said.

Dongfang Zhuoyu opened his mouth and pitched in as well, “Mie, you"re still young. It"s natural for you to be trapped in love, so try to look on the bright side.”

Xiao Luo stared into both of their eyes. “Director Gu, Director Dongfang, I shall not beat around the bush—I"m sure you a.s.signed that woman from the Bai family as my liaison on purpose. I can clearly remember all the things she said,” he said, “She said that as a member of the NSA, I have to follow the orders and arrangements that the higher-ups have given. This is the most basic rule that I"ve to follow, and if my guess is correct, those are also the words you"re trying to tell me. You"re just making use of her and had her deliver that message to me, am I right?”

Gu Zhanguo and Dongfang Zhuoyu stiffened up, and their faces turned pale. They looked at one another with a bitter smile. “That"s not true. You"re a super talent from our country that only surfaces once in a hundred years. There"s no way we looked at you in that manner, and I can a.s.sure you that that wasn"t our intention,” Gu Zhanguo said.

“Yes, yes, yes. That"s way too despicable, and that"s something that only narrow-minded people would do,” Dongfang Zhuoyu said.

Despicable? Narrow-minded?

Gu Zhanguo cursed at him inwardly when he heard that. Of course, with Xiao Luo in their presence, he couldn"t speak his mind and could only smile along, nodding his head in agreement. Otherwise, wouldn"t it be obvious what they did?
