My Arms Can Turn into Blades-Chapter 100 - 93: Keeping Up with the Times

"What’s up?"

Chen Lusi’s long-standing doubts were finally answered. Just as she was about to speak, she suddenly heard Si Yujie’s sigh, which made her a little curious.

"Xia Yue told you, right?"

Si Yujie didn’t hurry to answer but instead asked back, "Your Authority Ability issue."

"Yeah, he told me." Chen Lusi responded.

"The news has definitely spread. Although Xia Yue made an appearance... it still couldn’t stop the curiosity of the other members, and the group chat has already started discussing it."

Si Yujie tidied up Chen Lusi’s long hair and quietly said, "In such a situation, there will definitely be pressure, especially in the third team. After all, Xia Yue forced Xiaoyan to go to school, which offended quite a few people.

In a few days, after you talk with Xia Yue... no matter what choice you make, I can understand, but if you have time remember to come back and visit, I still owe you two favors."

"..."

Chen Lusi understood.

She assumed that she was meant to leave.

But what exactly happened with the third team? Why do they all assume she would leave?

Is the pressure that immense?

Thinking of this.

Chen Lusi couldn’t help but ask, "Is the third team really that annoying?"

"... It’s not really that they’re annoying, mainly because Xia Yue is too self-oriented. If it weren’t for Xiaoyan, I couldn’t stand him either."

Si Yujie chuckled lightly, "Although he’s willing to stand in line and follow the rules... this willingness is more troubling than unwillingness because he adheres to his own set of principles. As long as he believes something is right, no one can persuade him otherwise, and he’ll just step outside the lines to do what he thinks is right, then jump back in again, and he happens to be quite capable.

Unstable, domineering, difficult to communicate with, willing to confront the old guys and ’Self’... and will enforce his perspective on the other Celestial Strategy, such as the matter of Xiaoyan attending school. He believes that a bunch of adults shouldn’t force an elementary student to be a savior, so he directly took him back to Peng City."

"He neither pleases the old guys nor ’Self.’ They hate him to the core, and other teams also have grievances about his domineering nature. Many have always hoped he’d bow down, at least become a genuine ’Celestial Strategy’ of the Celestial Mansion, instead of a free agent walking a gray line."

"But Xia Yue has never bowed his head. Over time, many have butted heads with Xia Yue... consequently, the situation of the third team has also become delicate."

"Rest assured, although sometimes I can’t stand him, he has no issues with the internal members... even if the trend is for poaching, he can still accept it calmly and let them leave if they want."

"... Understood."

After listening, Chen Lusi found that it quite matched her impression of Xia Yue, and couldn’t help but smile, "Quite interesting."

"Interesting?"

Si Yujie couldn’t help but shake her head.

What’s interesting about it?

"By the way, what is the group?" Chen Lusi curiously asked again.

"..."

Si Yujie was stunned upon hearing and then sighed, "That idiot Wu You, how could he forget even something like this?"

She left a ’wait a minute,’ then grabbed Chen Lusi’s long hair with one hand, leaned over to take her phone from the table, operated a few times, and displayed a QR code in front of Chen Lusi.

"Scan it, I’ll add you to the group later."

Chen Lusi glanced down.

... An enterprise WeChat QR code.

"..."

Really keeping up with the times.

...

Chen Lusi finally scanned it.

After all, it doesn’t take long to download an enterprise version of WeChat.

And after doddering for so long.

Si Yujie finally finished tying his hair.

"All done." Si Yujie let go and took a step back.

"Thank you."

Chen Lusi expressed her gratitude, not paying it much attention, and instead looked down at her phone.

"Why do you choose to keep long hair?" Si Yujie curiously asked.

"Partly because of friends I grew up with, and another part... probably due to rebellion."

Chen Lusi pondered for a moment and replied, "I was eighteen at the time, so it wasn’t strange to do anything, and having kept it for so many years, I’m used to it now."

"Rebellion... ha, it looks nice."

Si Yujie was momentarily stunned to hear that, seemingly not expecting this kind of answer, and couldn’t help but suppress a smile.

Then.

She couldn’t help but reach out, gently grabbing Chen Lusi’s ponytail, and lightly tugged back.

"..."

Chen Lusi felt a sharp pain in her scalp, turned her head to look at Si Yujie dressed in a business suit, high heels, and all mature elegance, and her expression was somewhat unusual.

He thought matured older sisters wouldn’t be this childish...

What’s the difference from Lin Ying’s little sister?

Holding onto Chen Lusi’s ponytail, Si Yujie saw the peculiar expression on his face, stifling a laugh, just about to speak.

"..."

Suddenly.

Gentle footsteps could be heard approaching.

Xia Panqiu appeared at the doorway, paused slightly at the scene.

"Good morning."

Chen Lusi noticed the footsteps, turned to look at Xia Panqiu in flowing attire, and greeted her.

"Good morning."

Xia Panqiu came to her senses, walked into Celestial Strategy Trading, then hesitated a moment, and asked, "What are you guys doing?"

Si Yujie was stifling her laughter, pulling on Chen Lusi’s ponytail.

It was the first time Xia Panqiu had seen Xiaoxiao... act so immature.

"Ahem."

Si Yujie cleared her throat, let go of Chen Lusi’s ponytail, trying to maintain her authority.

"Nothing much."

On the other side.

Hearing this, Chen Lusi thought for a moment, then responded, "She was helping me tie my hair, and I was just going to ask her... oh right, Si Yujie, do you have any experience in naming children?"

Xia Panqiu: "..."

Si Yujie: "..."

Chen Lusi genuinely wanted to ask.

After all, among the people he knew, only Si Yujie had children.

If he were to ask for advice on naming children... she was the best choice.

But the other two seemed to misunderstand.

"... I didn’t expect, not only can you handle the light, but the dark as well."

Si Yujie glanced at her own shapely legs wrapped in smooth black stockings, showing a conflicted expression.

She looked at Chen Lusi’s face, hesitated, as if organizing her thoughts.

After a long while, she reached out and patted Chen Lusi’s shoulder gently, speaking earnestly, "But Lusi, only someone strong is worthy to walk beside me... wait, you do seem quite strong."

Saying this.

She paused, hesitated for a moment, patted Chen Lusi’s shoulder again, and said, "I’m a woman with a child, and I’m three years older than you..."

"..."

Chen Lusi understood.

He explained with a straight face. 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

Si Yujie, after listening, was taken aback, then burst into laughter, quickly bending over with an enchanting smile.

She laughed at the misunderstanding she created, laughing at her own serious demeanor.

"My apologies..."

After a while.

She finally managed to restrain her laughter a bit, apologized, and hastily left, stepping on her high heels.

But looking at her back, as she turned away, she still seemed to be laughing.

Her laughter was full of grace.

"Xiaoyan is adopted."

Xia Panqiu stood next to Chen Lusi, looking at his side profile, whispered, "Xiaoxiao just changed her last name..."

Chen Lusi remained silent for a moment: "How would I know."
