There were only two things Gu Xi could be certain of now.
One, someone had tampered with her ability.
Two, the three wanted criminals definitely held a clue.
Gu Xi lowered her eyes, concealing her deep thoughts.
After a moment, she looked up and asked Qi Xiang, "Did they ask you about the Crystal Core Fragments?"
Qi Xiang froze for a second, then shook her head. "No."
She immediately patted her chest, looking at Gu Xi with an expression of pure loyalty. "Gu Xiaoxi, you..." 'Don't worry. Even if someone asked, I wouldn't say a single word.'
Gu Xi asked another question. "Have you been with Dr. Qi all these years?"
The topic changed so abruptly that Qi Xiang paused again. 'There's something strange about the way Gu Xi is asking this,' she thought.
Still, she answered truthfully. "Yeah. Because my ability is rather special... my adoptive father has indeed liked to keep me by his side all these years..."
