Wei Qiao's throat was so dry and painful that he could barely make a sound, but he still shouted with all his might, "The young lady isn't inside! Run! The ship is going to explode!"
Wei Qiao desperately rushed out, shouting for everyone to evacuate. Hearing his cries, everyone began to flee the scene. Rong Mo was protected by his bodyguards as he rushed forward, but he kept looking back, his eyes fixed on Wei Qiao. Only when he saw Wei Qiao rushing after him did Rong Mo breathe a sigh of relief.
When they had retreated to a position far from the sea, they heard a loud "bang" behind them; the ship had exploded.
Wei Qiao lay on the ground, panting heavily. A bodyguard quickly brought him two bottles of water. Wei Qiao took the water, unscrewed the cap, and drank it down in one gulp. Then he unscrewed the other bottle and poured it over his head. His face was blackened by smoke, but seeing Rong Mo like this, he couldn't help but say, "Mr. Rong, Miss is not inside. She has already been moved. But don't worry, we will definitely catch Xiao Wanqing."
His hair was partially singed, and he had some scratches on his face, but his eyes remained resolute. Rong Mo felt a mix of emotions. "Thank you, Wei Qiao. Don't come with me today, get some rest."
Upon hearing Rong Mo's words, Wei Qiao shook her head and said firmly, "This is what I should do, President Rong. Protecting Miss's safety is my duty. I will not rest until I successfully rescue Miss. I hope you won't make me rest."
Rong Mo looked at Wei Qiao. He knew Wei Qiao's personality. If he asked him to rest now, he would indeed be restless. So he nodded.
far away.
Xiao Wanqing kicked Shen Zhi Qiu triumphantly. The kick wasn't hard, but it was full of insult and provocation. Watching Shen Zhi Qiu fall to the ground, a sense of satisfaction welled up inside her. Then, she slowly squatted down and removed the blindfold from Shen Zhi Qiu's face, wanting to see the look of terror on her face.
The moment the blindfold was removed, Shen Zhi Qiu squinted, still somewhat unaccustomed to the sudden light. A bright light appeared before her eyes—the screen of Xiao Wan Qing's phone. Xiao Wan Qing placed the phone screen in front of Shen Zhi Qiu; the video showed a ship engulfed in flames, with Wei Qiao's figure flashing briefly in the frame.
Shen Zhi Qiu stared wide-eyed at the raging fire on the screen, her heart filled with anger and fear. She knew that the ship was where Xiao Wan Qing had imprisoned her before, and clearly, Wei Qiao had been trapped in the flames while trying to save her.
Xiao Wanqing looked at Shen Zhi Qiu's expression with disdain. She sneered, then ripped the tape off Shen Zhi Qiu's mouth and said, "I'm showing you this to tell you that there are always fools who will fall for my traps. They won't be able to save you so easily, hehe."
Shen Zhi Qiu's lips trembled; she wanted to say something, but tears choked her throat. She could only glare angrily at Xiao Wan Qing, her heart filled with hatred and pain. She knew Xiao Wan Qing was a cruel and ruthless person who would sacrifice anyone to achieve her goals.
Xiao Wanqing looked at Shen Zhi Qiu's expression and curled her lips into a smile. She knew she had successfully shattered Shen Zhi Qiu's confidence and courage. She stood up and said coldly, "Do you know what? You look like a pathetic dog right now, begging for mercy at my feet. But, no one died, so they're lucky. But next time, who knows?"
"What exactly do you want?" Shen Zhi Qiu's face was grim. "If you want to kill me, just kill me. Don't hurt any innocent people!"
"Kill you?" Xiao Wanqing stood up, feigning surprise, picked up her coffee and took a sip. "I need to calm down. Honestly, everyone's always talking about killing each other, it's really scary."
Shen Zhi Qiu, do you know how much pleasure I feel seeing you like this? Because of you, I was forced to live in this world with a different face, secretly hiding and unable to even go home to see my parents. Do you know how much I hate you?
"If you want to blame someone, you should blame Gu Qingyan. It has nothing to do with me." Shen Zhi Qiu didn't want to focus the conversation on herself anymore, so she immediately turned her attention to Gu Qingyan.
“Of course, none of you will escape. Don’t worry, I’m always fair.” Xiao Wanqing leaned back casually in her chair, looked out the window, and said lazily, “Oh, the weather is pretty good today. I’ll call your brother this afternoon and have them come over.”
"What are you planning to do now?" Shen Zhi Qiu asked warily.
"Don't look at me like that. Do you think you can change anything? You're overestimating yourself. You're like an ant right now. I can crush you if I want, and I can withhold your food if I want." Xiao Wanqing smiled, then took out a bag of biscuits from her bag and waved it in front of Shen Zhiqi. "How about it? Are you hungry? Beg me, and I'll give you some."
"Stop dreaming!" Shen Zhi Qiu turned her head away in disgust.
With a "smack," Shen Zhi Qiu received a solid slap.
"This slap is to teach you a lesson. You think I wouldn't dare to hit you?" Xiao Wanqing leaned down, grabbed Shen Zhi Qiu's chin, and said through gritted teeth, "Don't try to act high and mighty here. If you don't eat, then go hungry!"
After saying that, Xiao Wanqing put the blindfold on her and put the tape back on her mouth.
afternoon.
After resting enough, Xiao Wanqing stretched and lay on the bed to call Rong Mo again.
"President Rong, it's been a long time! Did you like the big gift I gave you last night?" Xiao Wanqing said with a smile, resting her chin on her hand.
"Xiao Wanqing, don't go too far!" Rong Mo suppressed his anger, but his voice still rose involuntarily.
"Oh dear, President Rong, I don't understand what you're saying. How have I gone too far?" Xiao Wanqing chuckled. "If that's what you mean, then I'll hang up. And, Shen Zhi Qiu..."
"I'm sorry, that's not what I meant." Rong Mo clenched her fingers tightly, her nails digging into her flesh, but thinking that Shen Zhi Qiu was still in her hands, Rong Mo softened her attitude and retreated to advance, "I can overlook anything, as long as you are willing to release Zhi Qiu, I can agree to any condition you set."
"Where's Lu Jia? Tell him to come here as soon as possible, and remember to bring Gu Qingyan with him." Xiao Wanqing sat up with a smile. "I'm tired of playing around. I'm not going to mess with you anymore. It's time to settle things. There's only one white boat here, it's easy to spot."
“However,” Xiao Wanqing’s voice suddenly turned icy, “remember, no one is allowed to come except Lu Jia and Gu Qingyan. If anyone comes, I will kill Shen Zhi Qiu immediately.”
After saying that, Xiao Wanqing hung up the phone, jumped off the bed, pulled a huge suitcase to Shen Zhiqiu, and then put Shen Zhiqiu into the suitcase.
