Chapter 691 She is here to fulfill her regrets from many years ago

The voice on the other end of the phone sounded panicked and urgent.

Qiao Xi's expression became more and more ugly, and she finally said, "I know."

Then hang up the phone.

Her fingers were trembling slightly.

It was as if I heard the news of the young boy’s tragic death on that rain-washed night many years ago.

Qiao Xi's breath was choked.

That day, she didn't keep him.

This time, she couldn't leave any regrets.

Qiao Xi walked out of the bathroom quickly and shouted, "Old Chen!"

Lao Chen was nearby and rushed over when he heard the noise.

"Young Madam, what's wrong?"

"Get the car ready. I'm going to the Thirteen Bays Pier."

"Now?"

"Yes! Don't let it leak out!"

She lifted her skirt and walked towards the elevator. Old Chen looked puzzled, but still followed her closely.

"Madam, Young Master..."

"Once we get in the car, I'll send him a message to tell him where we are." Qiao Xi's heart seemed to be tightly entangled by a silk thread.

The cheeks were pale.

Seeing how panicked she looked, Old Chen quickly dispatched a few people.

The two of them went directly down from the top floor to the parking lot on the basement level, drove the Rolls-Royce out of the Tianyuan Building.

"no."

Qiao Xi looked at the dark and cold night outside, which seemed like a ferocious beast devouring flesh and blood.

"Mr. Chen, we can't drive this car through. Find an ordinary and inconspicuous car. I...we can't reveal our identities."

She couldn't drag the entire Huo family into this, and she couldn't become the other side's target.

Too conspicuous!

"yes."

Lao Chen didn't ask why, he just pulled over and switched with the bodyguard car behind.

These cars have all been modified and look ordinary from the outside. You can hardly find them among the traffic.

"Young Madam, is this okay?"

"Well! Let them stay outside the Thirteen Bay Pier and don't go in! If they go in, it will be too conspicuous."

Qiao Xi got in the car and forced herself to calm down.

She looked at her long dress and ripped off the hem.

Then he took out his cell phone, tapped the screen with his numb fingertips, and sent a short message to Huo Xingzhou.

Finally, she took a deep breath and took out the needle bag from her handbag.

Hold it tightly in your palm.

The night was dark, and the closer we got to the Thirteen Bays Pier, the more nervous we became.

This place is far away from the city center and has tens of thousands of ships docked here.

The incandescent lights were blinding, illuminating the pier as bright as day.

Freight forwarders and inspectors, as well as retail traders and workers move goods back and forth.

The Thirteen Bays Pier at night is even more noisy and chaotic than during the day.

If there is chaos, one can take advantage of the situation to fish.

Lao Chen pulled over and looked at the Thirteen Bay Pier. There were many martial artists among the crowd.

He looks no different from an ordinary person, but Old Chen can recognize him at a glance with his sharp eyes.

The alertness was also strange.

Different in and out.

The inspection when entering is very loose, but when leaving, everyone needs to be searched and their car searched.

It's like sending a signal.

You can only go in, not out.

Are you looking for someone or something?

"Young Madam, what should we do next?" Old Chen was fully prepared to obey Qiao Xi's orders. Whatever she said was the final word.

Qiao Xi slowly exhaled a breath of foul air, and was so anxious that she didn't even turn on the air conditioner in the car.

The weather was indeed very cold at the end of the year, but she was only wearing a dress.

It's too conspicuous to go out now.

"Go to the left and go around to Warehouse 0782. Put me down in a corner where no one can see me."

"yes."

Old Chen sensed a solemn atmosphere and he did not dare to delay Qiao Xi's business.

I deliberately made several detours before taking a long detour to Warehouse 0782. I parked the car at the back door of the warehouse and carefully watched the people passing by.

Noticed something was wrong.

"Madam, I will get off the car first to lead them away. You can get off when the time is right."

"Okay, thank you for your hard work."

Lao Chen deliberately opened the car door with a loud bang, with a cigarette in his mouth and a mobile phone in his hand, deliberately speaking in Northeastern dialect.

It's some jargon for picking up goods.

Those who looked suspicious just glanced at him and turned to walk to the other side.

They must be looking for someone too.

Qiao Xi took the opportunity to get off the car and sneaked into warehouse No. 0782. Her high heels were in the way, so she threw them aside.

Walking barefoot on the cold ground.

The warehouse is huge and very cold inside.

It was a warehouse full of seafood, and the strong smell of fish was there as soon as she entered. The ground was still wet, and she was shivering from the cold in her thin dress.

Sudden.

A cold dagger was across her neck, and there was a strong smell of blood.

Qiao Xi's heart was in her throat.

She turned her head carefully and saw a handsome face with graceful temperament appear in front of her.

"I like it."

Her throat tightened as she cried out the name.

Zhong Yi's eyes flashed with surprise, and her pale, bloodless lips opened: "Why are you here?"

She should be at the party.

As the protagonist, enjoy all the praise and compliments, instead of appearing in a remote and dirty warehouse at the Thirteen Bay Pier.

He put down the dagger, covered his abdomen and looked painful.

"Wan Jiang called me. He said you were seriously injured and stuck at the Thirteen Bay Pier. You can only enter but not leave. He wanted me to come... to help you."

Qiao Xi looked at him, his body covered in blood, which was still flowing.

He knew that if this continued, he would really die of blood loss just as Wan Jiang said.

The other party's purpose was simple, which was to trap him to death at the Thirteen Bay Pier.

"Mrs. Huo, you and I don't have much friendship. There's no need for you to take such a big risk to save me. Let's go as soon as possible. We have a way to leave the Thirteen Bays Pier." Zhong Yi's tone was cold. He leaned against the shelf and could hardly stand up.

But those eyes were bright and cold.

"If you meet me alone in the middle of the night, people will misunderstand that you have feelings for me. Although I really want to cheat on Huo Xingzhou, I am really unable to do so tonight. How about... another day?"

He spoke frivolously.

There is also some playful teasing.

Qiao Xi took a deep breath and said, "You are hiding here, trying to cover up the smell of blood with the fishy smell? When I came here, I saw some people outside with serious expressions, as if they were looking for someone. The exit of the Thirteen Bay Pier is now strictly blocked. Every car entering and leaving will be searched. Are you sure you want to argue with me?"

She took out the needle bag and spread it out.

He took out a long needle and asked, "Stretch out your hand."

Seeing that she was stubborn, Zhong Yi's eyes flashed with hunting fire, but his words were still annoying.

"Mrs. Huo, you'd better leave quickly. I have a solution. This is not the place for you to come. Otherwise, I will call Huo Xingzhou right now and tell him that you left him to have an affair with me."

He knew how dangerous tonight was.

He didn't expect Wan Jiang to call her over on his own initiative.

"What can you do? Wan Jiang said he called me because he had no other options. I'm afraid he's trying to lure the tiger away from his mountain retreat to buy you some time, right?"

"What does that have to do with you?"

The patient spoke in a bad tone and was extremely uncooperative.

Qiao Xi looked at his blood-stained clothes, her eyes filled with moisture.

He tried his best to suppress his trembling voice and said, "What does it have to do with me?"

Tonight, she is not here to rescue anyone.

But rushing to the regrets of many years ago.

The regret that tormented her for countless days and nights.

The corners of her eyes turned red, and she looked at him with suppressed pain: "I failed to save you last time, do you think I will watch you die this time?"
