Before Qiao Xi could continue to persuade her, she had already placed her hopes on Jun Jiuge, "Ninth Master, I'm begging you."
To Qiao Xi's surprise, Jun Jiuge readily agreed, "Okay."
"Thank you, Ninth Master!" Li Xiaoxiao said gratefully.
Qiao Xi looked at Jun Jiuge in disbelief, "You agreed?"
Jun Jiuge continued listening to the lesson without making a sound.
After class, Li Xiaoxiao had already disappeared. No one knew where she went. Maybe she went to set up a fan club. I bet quite a few girls in this school know about Er'er.
Qiao Xi caught Jun Jiuge looking utterly dejected and asked, "Ninth Master, didn't you agree a little too readily?"
“She’s made up her mind to leave,” Jun Jiuge replied decisively.
Qiao Xi muttered angrily, "I don't want to participate yet."
"You want to go see it too?" Jun Jiuge looked at him with a strange expression.
"You're overthinking it. I have a family," Qiao Xi said, showing her strong sense of family responsibility.
However, this answer didn't seem very convincing to Jun Jiuge, and Qiao Xi almost forgot to remind her of the important point, "Do you know who Li Xiaoxiao is going to meet?"
“I know,” Jun Jiuge said coldly. “He is the only survivor.”
"Huh?" Qiao Xi didn't understand at all.
Seeing Qiao Xi's puzzled look, Jun Jiuge found it strange, "You don't know?"
"What do you know?" Qiao Xi's curiosity was instantly piqued. "Tell me quickly."
Jun Jiuge regretted speaking up, but remembering what Qiao Xi had told her before, she didn't dare to hide it from her and could only tell her the truth, "Ma Qianbang is dead. Apart from that person, no one who was with him was left alive."
Qiao Xi's throat tightened immediately. "Who did this?"
Meanwhile, Qiao Xi had a rough idea of who to choose from, but if A Jin were to make a move, wouldn't he tell her?
"I don't know." Jun Jiuge had no choice but to lie to her; there was something she really couldn't tell her.
Qiao Xi asked with a suspicious look, "Then how did you know?"
"It was passed down from the Dao," Jun Jiuge answered readily.
When she heard this, Qiao Xi didn't think it was a big deal. "It's just that I'm too out of touch with the world."
Jun Jiuge offered her a rare moment of comfort, saying, "You're not in the underworld, so it's normal that you don't know."
Speaking of this, Qiao Xi felt a little sorry for her. She was so young, yet she had to experience things that happened in the underworld.
However, she was destined to be an extraordinary person, so she would not have an ordinary life.
Qiao Xi didn't hide anything from her and said, "To be honest, when A Jin caught him before, I interrogated him. He told me that Ma Qianbang saved his life, so he served Ma Qianbang."
“Now that everyone in Ma Qianbang is dead, he’s the only one left. How dare he perform so openly in a bar?” Qiao Xi looked at Jun Jiuge with a puzzled expression, wanting to hear his thoughts.
Jun Jiuge only knew that Yan Luoheng had hired someone to do it, but she didn't know why one of them was let go. She could only guess, "Maybe he wasn't their target."
As she voiced this possibility, a bold guess suddenly popped into Qiao Xi's mind: "I have a bold guess."
"Could it be that he deliberately made a big fuss to let those people know he's alive, so they'd come looking for him, and then he could avenge Ma Qianbang?"
"Because Li Xiaoxiao told me that this was his last performance," Qiao Xi added.
After pondering for a moment, Jun Jiuge nodded and said, "Maybe."
"Then should we..." Qiao Xi was interrupted before she could finish speaking, "It's none of your business, don't interfere."
Jun Jiuge knew what she wanted to say. Although she didn't know who did it, she couldn't be completely without thoughts in her mind. She probably suspected that Qi Jincheng did it, since only he would have such a reason to do it.
Qiao Xi did have such thoughts, but A Jin knew Er Er and knew that he was a member of Ma Qianbang. If they really wanted to wipe him out, they wouldn't leave him alive.
To find out the truth, you either need to go to the scene to verify her conjecture, or you need to ask Ah Jin directly for the answer.
If her suspicions are proven true, there will definitely be casualties on Ajin's side, since Er'er is quite skilled.
"Are you going to the welcome party tomorrow?" Qiao Xi deliberately probed Jun Jiuge, wanting to know if she would secretly go to the bar tomorrow.
Jun Jiuge's answer was very firm: "I promised Li Xiaoxiao."
"It's rare to see you so considerate of your classmates," Qiao Xi asked with a sigh and a hint of sarcasm.
"You'll have to wait until next time," Jun Jiuge 'comforted' her.
Before Qiao Xi could say anything, she added, "I can't handle this by myself."
Qiao Xi understood what she meant. She simply meant that she couldn't find excuses for two people on her own, especially since she wasn't good at speaking. So, in the end, the heavy responsibility of helping Li Xiaoxiao get away with it fell on Qiao Xi.
Qiao Xi suddenly asked her again, "What are you planning to wear tomorrow?"
Jun Jiuge didn't seem to understand what she meant by those words.
Qiao Xi smiled and reminded her, "It's a party, so dress up."
She understood after hearing that, but she wouldn't do it. "No."
"Shall I help you prepare?" Qiao Xi asked her proactively.
After hesitating for a moment, Jun Jiuge reluctantly agreed, "Okay."
After one of her afternoon classes, Qiao Xi went directly to the Dihua Group. She felt she still needed to verify with Qi Jincheng whether he was the one who did it.
Of course, even if he did it, she would still be on his side. He was doing this to avenge her. If not, she would be even more curious about who did it and what deep-seated grudge they had against Ma Qianbang.
After disguising herself, Qiao Xi, with the help of Assistant He, arrived at Qi Jincheng's office.
Upon seeing Qi Jincheng, Qiao Xi immediately reported, "Reporting to President Qi, I have already gathered the information."
"Speak," Qi Jincheng said, playing along with her.
Qiao Xi began solemnly, "Tomorrow during the day there will be an inspection meeting of the school board and people from all walks of life, and the welcome party will start at four o'clock in the afternoon."
"I think they probably invited you to the inspection meeting first, and then the welcome party."
"Can I see Xi'er?" Qi Jincheng asked the key question directly.
Qiao Xi smacked her lips and said uncertainly, "It should be okay."
"I don't know what the school will do with you after your visit."
Qi Jincheng nodded knowingly, then got up and walked to Qiao Xi, pulling her into his arms in a domineering manner. He said in a serious tone, "Now that Xi'er is a member of Peking University, I should follow her lead."
"Are you going?" Qiao Xi asked him to confirm.
