Chapter 214
In a trance, Jiang Chao went back to many years ago and saw the proud and dazzling girl under the rose flowers. She was like the scorching sun in midsummer, leaving no place to hide.
Jiang Chao was not angry even after being scolded. His face was soon covered with a smile again, and his tone was gentle: "Are you deliberately trying to provoke me?"
"You think too much." Jiang Qiao said slowly.
The fingers holding his chin suddenly tightened, but Jiang Qiao's expression did not change much. Instead, he smiled, tilted his head and asked, "Did you kidnap me for money or for Song Qingying?"
Logically speaking, as the person who carried out the mission, Jiang Chao should have lived a good life since he had failed the mission and escaped punishment. Why did he go to the trouble of kidnapping her?
This is totally inconsistent with the behavioral logic of normal people.
Her expression was one of genuine confusion and incomprehension. Jiang Chao suddenly felt like laughing, but he didn't laugh in the end. He asked, "Guess?"
Jiang Qiao raised an eyebrow: "It can't be for me, right?"
As if he knew the answer and asked with disdain, Jiang Chao's bright smile disappeared. He moved closer and said in an unclear tone: "What do you think..."
The air was silent for a while, like a silent confrontation, Jiang Qiao's eyes turned colder: "Don't be crazy."
Jiang Chao likes her? This is really the funniest joke Jiang Qiao has heard in recent years, no less than Wang Jie liking Lu Xun.
No one's love is like this, wanton harm, verbal insults, ghosts, not, scattered,
At best, he was just attracted by her pretty face, or maybe he was trying to pretend that he was still a normal person with normal emotions.
A selfish person like Jiang Chao will never truly fall in love with anyone.
Jiang Chao's expression changed for a moment, but he quickly adjusted his mood and said in an unclear tone: "Do you think Lu Xun will be able to rescue you soon, so you are so reckless?"
Jiang Qiao didn't say anything, he just raised his eyelids and glanced at him lightly, the meaning was very clear,
Jiang Chao was silent for a while, then slowly stood up and suddenly asked without any context, "Do you want to meet Song Qingying?"
Jiang Qiao: “?”
"You will be able to see her soon." Jiang Chao narrowed his eyes and left this ambiguous sentence.
The door was closed again. Jiang Qiao heard the sound of it being locked. She suddenly leaned against the wall as if she had lost all strength and closed her eyes tightly.
There was a nicely presented sandwich on a small table not far away. She had to raise her head slightly to eat it. It was a completely insulting way to eat with her hands tied.
Jiang Qiao struggled hard for a while, but failed to break free from the straps on his wrists. Instead, he became even hungrier. He had no choice but to move slowly a few steps and look up to eat the sandwich on the table.
Compared to so-called dignity, filling one's stomach is more important. Only when one has the strength can one think of how to escape.
She didn't know when Lu Xun would find this place. Before that, she could only conserve her strength and look for opportunities to save herself.
After finally finishing the sandwich, Jiang Qiao suddenly heard a subtle sound, as if coming from the window. Before she could react, there were two clear knocking sounds, one light and one heavy.
*
It has been 7 hours since Jiang Qiao disappeared.
The old house of the Liu family was brightly lit.
"Don't worry, Mr. Lu. Yang Huai has already found some clues. Miss Jiang will be fine."
Liu Lin said this, but the man's expression did not improve.
In just a few hours, Lu Xun was already in disarray. His eyes were bloodshot and his face was cold, not trying to hide his concern.
Liu Lin still remembers how the man broke into the Liu family in a forceful and unreasonable manner and forced him to tell him the whereabouts of Jiang Qiao. He was so ruthless that he wished he could tear him to pieces alive the next second.
After finding out that Jiang Qiao's disappearance had nothing to do with him, the man's attitude did not improve.
It's unique that he is so arrogant when asking others to do something for him.
Liu Lin sighed and was about to say something to ease the atmosphere when several men in black hurried in. The leader, Wang Jie, lowered his head and said something.
Lu Xun's face flashed with an undisguised gloom and anger. He didn't even have time to put on his coat and strode out the door.
Wang Jie hurriedly picked up his coat and quickly followed him. Several men in black also left.
He came in with a dignified manner and left without any hesitation, without even glancing at the owner of the house.
Hearing the sound of the car starting outside, Xiao Liu, who was sitting on the sofa, leaned back suddenly, breathed a sigh of relief, and frowned, "How rude, like a bandit who broke into the house and robbed it."
She complained a few words, but didn't wait for a response. She looked up and saw someone drinking tea without changing his expression. It seemed that he felt it was not very tasty, so he put it down lightly.
Xiaoliu: "……………………"
Perhaps it was because Xiao Liu's eyes were too resentful that Liu Lin finally paid attention to her and smiled elegantly and calmly: "You are quite brave, aren't you afraid that I will tell him?"
Xiaoliu: "!"
How could you threaten her like this! Don’t you know that she is most afraid of Lu Xun? !
Xiao Liu was furious and said directly: "You lied to him too, I will tell him too!"
She had clearly sensed Jiang Qiao's whereabouts and knew who had kidnapped her, but she pretended to be ignorant in front of Lu Xun. She was not honest at all. Xiao Liu did not understand: "Why don't you go and save the beauty? Maybe Jiang Qiao will fall in love with you."
A hero saves a beauty, and then Jiang Qiao naturally marries him. Isn't this what Liu Lin wants?
Liu Lin paused for a moment at such a simple and brainless statement, then sighed heavily, filled with unspeakable helplessness.
The sky outside the window was turning white, and the sun was rising from the horizon. The first ray of sunlight in the morning shone into his eyes. Liu Lin squinted his eyes, and a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes.
Some things have to be tried yourself before you know how fantastic they are. He also wanted to know what Jiang Chao was going to do.
*
There was only a white bed in the empty basement. Song Qingying was lying in the middle of the bed with her eyes closed, as if she had fallen asleep.
If she had opened her eyes, she would definitely have seen a floating light blue figure beside the bed.
This is an almost eerie scene, with a pale blue figure floating around, sometimes clear and sometimes disappearing.
Jiang Chao walked in, and a light blue figure immediately floated over and asked, "Host, what are you going to do? This is not the same as what you told me!"
There was obvious anger in the mechanical voice, which was a manifestation of its growing self-awareness.
Jiang Chao's expression was calm: "What's the difference? You want to upgrade to the first-level system. Am I not helping you? Aren't you getting stronger?"
"But you clearly said that you only wanted to extract a little of the heroine's energy!" 014 was not fooled by him: "Why did you bring another tasker here? What exactly do you want to do?!"
The mission failed. As a high-level system, it was demoted three levels. It was mocked openly and covertly by other systems in the same batch. Its consciousness gradually degraded, and it felt like watching life slip away with its own eyes.
Hehehe, the next chapter will be here soon!
