Xi Chenxiao maintained his expression when he heard Su Jin’s words. He could tell that Su Jin didn’t like his gift very much, but he must give it to her. It was something very useful. Xi Chenxiao did not get angry and looked at Su Jin affectionately as he replied solemnly,

“This is for self-defense!”

Su Jin was even more curious when she heard this. Wasn’t she already practicing martial arts? Why did she still need this for self-defense? Besides, even if her martial arts skills were not great, she still had many bodyguards to protect her. Wasn’t this weapon a little redundant? Su Jin looked at Xi Chenxiao curiously and asked in confusion,

“Am I not practicing martial arts for self-defense? Why are you still giving me this concealed weapon?”

Xi Chenxiao maintained his facial expression when he heard this. The reason he gave this gift to the girl was because she said she did not want to practice martial arts. For some strange reason, she was practicing martial arts diligently now. Nonetheless, this concealed weapon would still be an extra layer of protection for her. Xi Chenxiao replied calmly,

!!

“It’s because you said that you didn’t want to practice martial arts.”

Xi Chenxiao put the box in Su Jin’s hand as he said this. He then used a handkerchief to wipe the sweat off Su Jin’s forehead. To Xi Chenxiao, nothing was more important than Su Jin now. With this concealed weapon, even if she met with professional assassins, as long as they were caught off guard, Su Jin could still kill them instantly. Xi Chenxiao continued,

“I gave you this so you could protect yourself better. I sent people to find the descendants of the Tang sect and paid them a lot of money to make this weapon!”

Su Jin felt conflicted when she heard this. Paid a lot of money to make this thing? The devil was being wasteful. Wouldn’t it be nice if he just gave her the money? He spent all this money to give her an extra layer of protection? What a waste! Su Jin looked at Xi Chenxiao and said a little unhappily,

“What? Paid a lot of money for this piece of metal? How expensive can this be? I don’t believe it!”

Xi Chenxiao heard Su Jin’s words and did not say more. Anyway, this money was nothing to him. As long as the girl was safe, everything else was not important. Price was just a string of numbers; everything’s fine as long as Su Jin liked it. Xi Chenxiao replied,

“That’s right. Since darling said it’s not expensive, then it’s not that expensive!”

Xi Tian, who was standing at the side, felt unhappy when he heard this. This thing was not expensive? One needle was already equivalent to Xi Tian’s annual salary plus bonus. And Xi Chenxiao ordered so many needles in one go. The total amount was an astronomical figure! An average person would not be able to earn so much money in ten years, not even in a hundred years! Xi Tian said gloomily,

“Chairman, I don’t think what you said was accurate!”

“This tiny needle costs two million yuan each. There are only 10 in this box, but how many did you order for Madam? A whole two hundred needles! Moreover, you’ve left instructions that you would need 200 needles every six months and asked them to make them quickly. If they had to work overtime, you would pay them an additional 20 million yuan for working overtime!”

When Su Jin heard Xi Tian mention so much money, she suddenly didn’t have the courage to continue counting. So much money just to get such this small gadget? And it might not even be used. And to order 200 needles every six months? No matter how rich the devil was, he couldn’t withstand such a disaster, right? Su Jin grabbed Xi Tian’s clothes and said anxiously,

“But this needle is all iron, not gold. How can it be so expensive? Each needle actually costs two million yuan? Two hundred needles every six months. How much will that cost per year? Xi Tian, I’m not good at math. Help me calculate!”

Xi Chenxiao stood at the side and was stunned when he saw Su Jin’s big reaction. Wasn’t Su Jin always good at her studies? Why couldn’t she work out such a simple sum? She actually asked Xi Tian to help her calculate? Xi Tian might not even be as good as her in math! Without waiting for Xi Tian to say anything, Xi Chenxiao interrupted,

“Xi Tian is not as good as you. He’s only had primary school education. How could he calculate this better than you?”

Xi Tian was speechless when he heard this. The chairman’s words were too harsh. He did not give him any face at all. Moreover, he did not just have primary school education! Was it because Madam grabbed his clothes? Was there a need to hold such a grudge? Xi Tian answered respectfully,

“Madam, the Rainstorm Pear Blossom Needles are 208 needles in total. They will all shoot out the moment you press the trigger!”
