After understanding the language of animals, I quit the entertainment circle and started working for

Chapter 288: Is the target Lin Xiao?
Just as Lin Xiao and his group hid, they saw several people slowly walking towards them from the other side of the border.

"Do you think this is going to work? We're just holed up in the forest doing this kind of thing every day. They might not be annoyed, but I am... I don't know how long we'll be staying here."

The two men carried weapons on their shoulders, and their words were filled with anger.

"He's just a researcher, is it really necessary to go to such lengths?"

The other person sighed, patted the person next to him, and spoke up.

"Why so much nonsense? Just get to work and stop talking such rubbish."

"Besides, it's not something we can guess what the boss is thinking."

"I've heard that its abilities are extremely special. If it can really submit to us, it would be a great help."

The two people spoke mysteriously, leaving the three people hiding behind the tree looking at each other in bewilderment.

Especially Lin Xiao.

She blinked, seemingly still not quite recovered from what had just happened.

What's the matter?

Judging from their words, it seems like their target is... her?

Lin Xiao turned her head uncertainly to look at the two people next to her, blinking as if to confirm with them again.

Lu Chengshen and Gu Ming were speechless for a moment, but they still nodded very formally.

She was right.

Those two people came here solely for her!
Lin Xiao couldn't help but roll her eyes.

Is this organization sick?
He's like a piece of chewing gum; once he's stuck to you, you can't peel it off.

Fortunately, there were only two people here.

Lu Chengshen and Gu Ming had received very special training. They exchanged a silent glance and immediately understood each other's plans.

They gave Lin Xiao a hand gesture, indicating that he should stay where he was with the green peacock and the red panda.

The two of them followed silently.

The two men swaggered around without making any attempt to avoid it, as if they had long considered this forest their home.

Unexpectedly, just a second ago they were walking slowly forward, and the next second the world spun around them, and before they could react, they were suddenly pushed to the ground.

The two men didn't realize what was happening until their necks were pressed down hard and slammed to the ground.

They struggled to lift their heads and turned to yell at the two people behind them.

"Where did this brat come from? Why would he launch a sneak attack for no reason?"

"If you're so capable, let me go and we'll have a one-on-one match."

Hearing their words of chivalry, Lu Chengshen couldn't help but let out a cold laugh, completely unaffected by their provocation.

Lu Chengshen pulled up the person he had pinned to the ground before turning to look at where Lin Xiao was hiding.

Lin Xiao had already stood up while holding the little panda when they caught the two guys.

The green peacock angrily ran forward a few steps, then lowered its head and unceremoniously sat on the two people.

If those two bastards hadn't had weapons in their brains, they wouldn't be homeless now.

The two guys were pecking at by the peacock and cried out in pain, but unfortunately, the three people from before seemed not to see it and tacitly looked away.

Even the little panda in Lin Xiao's arms was baring its teeth at them.

In the end, Lin Xiao petted the red panda and then stepped aside to stop the green peacock.

"Okay, okay, don't be angry!"

"It's about time. Let's send you back first, and then take these two bastards back to the research institute to deal with them."

The green peacock nodded angrily, and even before speaking, it rubbed against Lin Xiao affectionately.

"You must keep your word and absolutely not let him off so easily just because they are your kind."

"it is good!"

Lin Xiao nodded, bent down and patted the green peacock's head, then led them back. But they had only taken one step when a voice of approval came from the side.

"You really can communicate with these animals."

Lin Xiao turned around while holding the little panda and saw that the person who spoke this time was the same man who had comforted his companion earlier.

She raised her eyebrows slightly, her tone carrying an unusually obvious sneer.

"Oh? What communication? I don't understand what you're saying."

The man bluntly exposed Lin Xiao's words.

"Stop pretending! Our boss has known you have this ability for a long time. This time he asked me to help him. I'm passing something on to you."

"Give it to me?"

Lin Xiao's eyes widened slightly, her face filled with disbelief.

What the hell?

Should I have one of his men bring me something?
How did he know about these two people...?

A thoughtful look flashed in Lin Xiao's eyes. She immediately frowned and asked again.

"What do you mean by that? When did your boss tell you that? And I don't think I even know him."

"It doesn't matter whether you know him or not, as long as our boss knows you."

The man looked at Lin Xiao and laughed extremely arrogantly.

He glanced at the people around him with a look of disdain, and then began to solicit business without any politeness.

"What can you possibly accomplish by following this bunch of penniless bastards?"

"You might as well work for our boss. Our boss guarantees you'll live a life of luxury."

"Besides, aren't you short of money? If you follow our boss, you'll live like a god."

Lin Xiao glanced at him with amusement, "Are you living like a god? Or can't you even control your own destiny?"

The man's expression changed instantly. "What do you mean by that? Don't push your luck."

Lin Xiao let out a cold laugh. She lowered her head and gently combed the red panda's fur as she spoke slowly.

"What I said was exactly what it said. Didn't you ever think about why your boss would have you hand over this box to me beforehand?"

The man fell silent.

His eyes were wide open, his pupils were trembling, but he couldn't utter a single word.

Lin Xiao, however, bluntly exposed this false sense of brotherhood.

"The fact that he asked you to hand this box over to me means that he was already certain that I would come to handle this matter. Not only that... he was also certain that you would fall into my hands."

"So... this is the good boss you were talking about?"

Lin Xiao's tone was flippant, immediately radiating sarcasm.

With Lu Chengshen and Gu Ming holding his arms, the man could only stand there, raging helplessly.

His mouth is dirty.

Unfortunately, nobody cared about these words.

Lin Xiao looked at the box in her hand, then opened it with a puzzled expression, only to find a finely carved white jade pendant inside.

Only one pendant?
Lin Xiao exchanged a surprised glance with Lu Chengshen, then looked at the box in front of her again.

At that moment, Lu Chengshen narrowed his eyes, vaguely sensing that something was amiss.

"The material of this pendant doesn't seem to be jade; it's more like..."

"ivory?!"

"ivory!"

The two answered in unison.
