Just then, Huo Changzhou came running over with a large group of people.
"Hey, that looks like the farm's security department!"
Someone shouted from a distance.
There hadn't been too many people working nearby, but with that shout, everyone in the vicinity instantly turned to look. Seeing that the security personnel seemed to be carrying weapons, many of them started running toward Gu Xi.
Most of them were just coming to watch the commotion, but a fair number were genuinely worried that something had happened... and of course, there were also prying eyes from other factions.
Gu Xi paid them no mind. She simply stood up and waited quietly for Huo Changzhou to approach.
Huo Changzhou seemed to be in a great hurry, running until he was drenched in sweat and panting for breath.
"Mr. Huo, what's with you... Did a mutant dog chase you all the way here?" Qi Xiang asked with a grin.
She was the most familiar with Huo Changzhou, so her tone was very casual.
