"I mind." Qiao Lubai stared at Daisy and slowly uttered a few words, "Mu Qiao is coming, I don't want her to misunderstand, I will come to Duan Lao for treatment in the future, and she will accompany me."
What I mean is, please don't follow me in the future as it may easily lead to misunderstanding.
Daisy's eyes flashed quickly, her expression normal, "When will she arrive?"
"These days." Qiao Lubai didn't say much.
He hoped Daisy would understand her position and not cross the line.
Daisy stared at him. "When I was receiving treatment in the military hospital, Mu Qiao came to see me. I owe her a favor. Now that she is here, I have to show some hospitality."
"No need for that." Qiao Lubai refused and said, "Daisy, she only went to see you because you were poisoned by the revolver because of me. Now you are well, there is no need to talk about other things."
Daisy looked at him. After a long silence, she asked, "Because of Mu Qiao, can we no longer be friends?"
Qiao Lubai said without hesitation, "If you are just a friend to me, we are still friends. If you intend to destroy this friendship, then we will take care of each other."
...
...
"Qiao Lubai, I find that you are a very hard-hearted person." Daisy tilted her head and stared at the man beside her with a bitter face.
"When we were undercover, I was the only one by your side. You always put me first in everything. I thought that besides me, you would never have another woman in your life. Unexpectedly, you married Mu Qiao not long after you went to Snow Wolf. Do you know how I felt at that time?"
Qiao Lubai's dark eyes darkened, "I took care of you when I was undercover, and you were my priority. I was simply protecting my comrades-in-arms, and it had nothing to do with feelings."
Daisy was stunned for a moment, a little angry and puzzled, "Am I uglier than Mu Qiao? Am I less capable than her? Why did you choose her instead of me?"
Qiao Lubai was a little speechless, but since things had come to this point, he was no longer silent. Perhaps it would be better for everyone if they talked it out.
Especially since Mu Qiao is about to come to Zhouquan, he doesn't want Mu Qiao to be jealous because of Daisy.
"Mu Qiao is not as pretty as you, but she is more capable than you. Most importantly, she is frank, sincere, and upright, which other girls don't have."
Qiao Lubai continued, "I feel at ease with her. She understands what I am thinking, and I can understand what she is thinking. This is tacit understanding, and it is also a bond that can maintain our relationship."
Daisy was silent for a long time after hearing this, then she opened the car door and walked out. "I know, but I won't give up liking you."
"Why bother?" Qiao Lubai looked at Daisy's back and shook his head helplessly, "You are so outstanding, you deserve better!"
Daisy got into a taxi on the side of the road. The moment she got in the car, her face instantly became gloomy and her eyes were dark.
Qiao Lubai drove back to the rented Sakura Apartment when Hei Cheng called him, "Ye Tan has been transferred to Zhouquan City Hospital, and we have also contacted Elder Duan."
Qiao Lubai can rest assured that Heicheng can do the job.
"Mr. Qiao, Ye Tan wants to see you." Hei Cheng said hesitantly, "She said that you have always helped her unconditionally, and she wants to tell you something. This matter cannot be conveyed, and must be said face to face."
What exactly will it be?
Ye Tan had come into contact with Yun Ji and the Tian family. Could it be that she knew something about Yun Ji and the Tian family?
Qiao Lubai hesitated for a moment and agreed to meet.
In the afternoon, Qiao Lubai went to Zhouquan City Hospital and saw Ye Tan with his face wrapped in gauze.
The area of her face that has been rotten due to the virus is so large that she may need skin grafting.
In front of Ye Tan, Qiao Lubai took off his mask, revealing the burn scar on his face.
He did this to tell Ye Tan that disfigurement was nothing and that he would get better as long as he actively received treatment.
His confidence infected Ye Tan. She smiled slightly and told a hidden truth, "I have been working at Tian's Zun Shang Culture for many years. I occasionally go to the headquarters to deliver documents. I often see Yifeng's CEO Zhu Xiao and CEO Tian together. Once, in an underground bar on the sea, I heard them talk about developing a CC virus."
"They said this virus could be developed and launched, and then a cure could be produced to make a lot of money."
"I was still working at Tian's at the time. I didn't want to lose my job, so I pretended I didn't hear anything. It wasn't until I was poisoned by Yunji's people that I realized how harmful this virus was."
"Mr. Qiao, I'm sorry. I was too selfish at the time, which is why I ended up with a disfigured face today. If I had told you earlier, I would... I wouldn't have become what I am now."
When he finished speaking, Ye Tan burst into tears and was filled with deep regret.
Qiao Lubai looked at her indifferently without any comfort.
According to his temper, he would have cursed someone right now, but he knew that people are selfish and no one can be truly selfless.
However, Ye Tan's legal knowledge was too weak, so he had to remind her that "any adult citizen has the responsibility to report crime."
She clearly heard the conversation between Mr. Tian and Yifeng President Zhu Xiao, but she did not report it in time, resulting in Zhu Xiao being caught.
After Mr. Tian was arrested, Zhu Xiao must have fled from Country Z.
Qiao Lubai knew this even with his toes.
"I was wrong." Ye Tan saw Qiao Lubai's expression, realized his mistake, and repented deeply.
Qiao Lubai looked at her calmly, "You should get treatment first. You may need to go back to Yishui City Police Station to explain your cooperation with Yunji in setting up Mu Qiao."
If you break the law, you must accept legal sanctions. This time, Qiao Lubai can't help her.
Ye Tan nodded in self-blame, and after a moment of silence, he explained, "I know I committed a crime, but I am not hiding to escape the crime, but because I don't want to go to jail like this."
"I can understand you." Qiao Lubai only represented himself and could not understand her on behalf of the law.
Hearing this, Ye Tan raised his head with a faint smile in his eyes, "Mr. Qiao, it's enough that you understand me."
This is what Ye Tan wants to hear most these days.
Now that she heard it, she was very happy and satisfied.
"Over the years, I have been imitating you in doing good deeds, but my ability is limited. I can only help those helpless orphans, while you have been protecting the millions of people in Country Z. I cannot follow in your footsteps. This is destined and inevitable. Therefore, I want to live a peaceful life and no longer have any illusions."
This is what Ye Tan specifically told Qiao Lubai when he chased him to the door of the ward when he left the municipal hospital.
He understood what she meant. He knew that he had helped her that year and made her feel warm. Therefore, she also started to help others, thinking that she could catch up with him and walk side by side with him. However, she found that no matter how hard she tried, she could not get close to him, and she only got further and further away.
So, she let it go!
Qiao Lubai sighed deeply for Ye Tan in her heart. She helped her at the beginning just because she saw that she was a young girl who had to support her family, so she lent a helping hand. She didn't expect that she would fall so deeply.
