"Ninth Master!" Qiao Xi couldn't care less about Ma Qianbang anymore; she was anxiously checking on Jun Jiuge's condition.
In a short while, the lower half of Jun Jiuge's sleeve was stained red.
"Ninth Master." Qiao Xi looked at her with a worried and nervous expression.
Brother Jin didn't recognize the person who suddenly appeared, but he could tell that he was one of Ma Qianbang's men.
Moreover, the current situation was clear, but Brother Jin did not want to give up this opportunity to make a contribution. He called his men and wanted to rush up to help, but Ma Qianbang stopped him, saying, "Don't worry about it, he can handle it on his own."
Qiao Xi recognized the person at a glance. "It's you?"
"You know him?" Jun Jiuge frowned.
Qiao Xi remembered that Jun Jiuge was also there that day, and quickly reminded her, "Don't you remember? The person who sang at the bar that day completely captivated Li Xiaoxiao."
Yes, it's him, just look at his harmless face.
But it was precisely this face that exuded an unusually strong murderous aura at this moment!
Qiao Xi couldn't help but wonder if they were really the same person. When he was singing on stage, he seemed so... pure and holy.
"You are Er'er, right?" Qiao Xi couldn't help but ask.
Er did not give her a verbal answer, but his silence was the best affirmation.
"You're actually from the Ma Qian Bang." Qiao Xi couldn't help but say again.
He looked to be about the same age as them, but he had the same coldness as Jun Jiuge.
No, compared to Jun Jiuge, he seems even colder, especially now, with not a trace of human warmth in his eyes.
Jun Jiuge, unwilling to sit idly by and wait for her fate, prepared to fight back. Just as she was about to make her move, Qiao Xi stopped her, saying, "You're injured like this, let me do it."
"Are you looking for death?" Jun Jiuge also grabbed her.
Qiao Xi's rudimentary skills were utterly insignificant to her. The man in front of her was definitely no less skilled than her, and might even be more so. For Qiao Xi to fight him would be tantamount to suicide.
"We can't just sit here and wait to die," Qiao Xi said with great pride. "I'm Qi Jincheng's woman, I can't let him down."
“I’ll do it.” Jun Jiuge ignored her injuries and stepped forward again.
"Forget it, let's not waste our energy," Qiao Xi said suddenly, giving up.
The outcome is already clear. Let's stop causing unnecessary damage and conserve our energy to think of another way to escape.
Jun Jiuge clearly didn't want to surrender easily, and Qiao Xi grabbed her hand and gave her a meaningful look.
Thinking she understood, Qiao Xi suddenly smiled and said, "So, are we going to the Yellow Springs together today?"
“You insisted on coming to keep me company,” Jun Jiuge said cooperatively.
Qiao Xi smiled and said frankly, "Good friends are for life."
Ma Qianbang then gave the order to Er'er: "Bring them here."
Without him having to lift a finger, Qiao Xi and Jun Jiuge walked over on their own.
Ma Qianbang put on a kind-hearted act and said earnestly to Jun Jiuge, "Little Jiuge, I'm giving you one last chance. If you tell me where the item is, I can let you go."
"Don't believe him," Qiao Xi said firmly. "He will never let us leave alive. If we leave alive, he will be the one who dies."
However, she knew that even if she didn't say anything, Jun Jiuge wouldn't give him the thing.
"Fine, if you don't want to talk about it, then don't." Ma Qianbang sighed and shook his head, then said with a confident look, "As long as the item is with you, it's not hard to find."
Qiao Xi was becoming increasingly curious about what they were talking about that was worth all the trouble he had gone to such lengths to ask Jun Jiuge for.
Without further hesitation, Ma Qianbang waved his hand and said, "Lock them in the cold storage."
"Madam! Madam!" Little Li shouted, expressing his helplessness.
Soon, Qiao Xi and Jun Jiuge's hands were tied, and Er Er personally escorted them to the so-called cold storage.
Before leaving, Qiao Xi gave Xiao Li a comforting look, wondering if another miracle would happen to her this time.
Although the factory is abandoned, the cold chain area behind it is still in operation, containing several cold storage facilities.
I don't know how they got the key to the cold storage; maybe the cold storage is theirs.
As soon as the door opened, Er'er coldly pushed them inside, then closed the door from the outside.
The world inside the cold storage is completely different from the outside; the cold is indescribable!
"Ninth Master, we need to get out of here quickly, I'm not very resistant to the cold." Qiao Xi was shivering and her nose was running.
Although Jun Jiuge was also cold, she remained calm and said something that chilled people to the bone: "There's no chance anymore."
"Didn't you leave any backup plan?" Qiao Xi asked knowingly.
Jun Jiuge retorted, "Didn't you tell me to surrender?"
Qiao Xi, “…”
No problem, but they just couldn't find an opportunity. Now it's a done deal, and I doubt there will be any more miracles.
Qiao Xi calmly accepted reality and said, "It seems that this time we really are going to the Yellow Springs together."
"Do you have any unfulfilled wishes before you die?" Qiao Xi suddenly asked her again.
Jun Jiuge shook her head firmly, "No."
No one can face death without regrets, but compared to her previous life, Qiao Xi is quite satisfied with this one.
But right now, Qiao Xi's mind is filled with Qi Jincheng's image. If she were to die here like this, she would really be unwilling.
Thinking about how her mother's cause of death had not yet been fully determined, and thinking about... thinking about the happy life she would have with Qi Jincheng in the future, her will to survive suddenly became very strong.
Qiao Xi didn't think Jun Jiuge had no regrets at all. "Don't you think your life has only just begun?"
"We're all going to die sooner or later," Jun Jiuge said nonchalantly. "Won't thinking too much just cause more trouble?"
Qiao Xi couldn't find anything wrong with her answer, but what she said was like saying, "You're going to die sooner or later anyway, so why bother eating?"
"It is precisely because I know that I will die sooner or later that I should cherish every day even more," Qiao Xi murmured to herself involuntarily.
However, saying such things at this time seems a little sad.
But if she didn't say anything, she worried that Jun Jiuge would lose the will to survive, and losing the will to survive in such an environment would be very dangerous.
Jun Jiuge suddenly said again, "You shouldn't have come along."
Qiao Xi rested her chin on her hand, enduring the cold as she said, "There's nothing I can do, I'm just too kind, but kind people never seem to get good rewards."
"Don't be stupid in your next life," Jun Jiuge said coldly.
