After hearing what Xiao Chen said, Qiong was stunned. Having a midnight snack?
"Why, you're not hungry, are you? Haha, by the way, let me introduce you to a friend."
Xiao Chen saw Qiong looking at him and said with a smile.
"good."
Joan nodded.
"Wait a moment, I'll change my clothes."
"Well, let's change."
Xiao Chen sat on the sofa, while Qiong returned to the bedroom.
Before she had finished her cigarette, Joan came out of the room.
"let's go."
"Um."
The two men left the room, and the two men guarding the door followed them from a distance.
"Xiao Chen, did the Gabil family call?"
Suddenly, June asked.
Xiao Chen was a little surprised when he heard Qiong's words, and then he looked at her.
It seems that she is well aware that the Gabil family will not let it go just like that.
"Well, I beat him and asked Zi Yi to hand you and me over... Zi Yi refused."
Xiao Chen nodded and said.
"Purple?"
Qiong looked at Xiao Chen, who is this?
"Ye Ziyi, my girlfriend."
Xiao Chen smiled.
"You'll see her soon."
"Ye Ziyi... that amazing woman from the Ye family? Is she your girlfriend?"
Qiong thought about it and seemed to remember who Ye Ziyi was, then she was a little surprised.
"A strange woman? Is this what the outside world calls Zi Yi? Haha, I always thought she was quite enchanting."
Xiao Chen chuckled.
"Yes, she is my girlfriend, and I came to Kresna Island for her this time."
"Um."
Joan nodded but said nothing.
For some reason, she felt a little uncomfortable.
Soon, they arrived at the restaurant.
"Mr. Xiao, Miss Qiong, please come in."
Tian Kun was already waiting at the door.
"Um."
Xiao Chen nodded and took Qiong in.
When Ye Ziyi saw the two of them, she slowly stood up and her eyes fell on Qiong.
And Qiong's gaze immediately fell on Ye Ziyi.
The two women kept looking at each other.
"Haha, Ziyi, let me introduce her to you. She is Qiong... Qiong, this is my girlfriend, Ye Ziyi."
Xiao Chen introduced.
"Hello, Miss June."
Ye Ziyi smiled and stretched out her right hand.
"Hello, Miss Ye. I have heard of your name several times."
Qiong nodded and shook hands with Ye Ziyi.
"Oh? Miss June, have you heard of my name?"
Ye Ziyi was a little surprised.
"Yes, although I was imprisoned by the Gebir family, I also know some things... Being able to gamble with the Gebir family shows that Miss Ye is very powerful."
Joan nodded.
"Not really, Miss June. Please take a seat."
Ye Ziyi chuckled and said to Qiong.
"Thanks."
Joan nodded and sat next to him.
After Qiong sat down, Ye Ziyi looked at Tian Kun, who nodded and went to order a midnight snack.
Soon, the midnight snack was served.
"Just now I heard from Achen that Miss Qiong was imprisoned in the Gebir Building?"
Ye Ziyi looked at Qiong and asked casually.
"Yes, but they only restricted my freedom... But for me, freedom is the most precious thing."
Joan nodded and said.
"Um."
Ye Ziyi didn't delve too much into Qiong's identity and started talking about other things.
Sometimes, if you want to understand a person, you don’t have to ask about his or her identity or something, but you can see his or her level from some conversations.
Obviously, Qiong did not disappoint Ye Ziyi. She was not an ordinary girl.
The midnight snack was served quickly.
Although it was called a midnight snack, it was very rich and filled the table.
Xiao Chen didn't pay any attention to Ye Ziyi and Qiong. He was really hungry and started eating in big mouthfuls.
Just as they were eating, Tian Kun came in from outside and whispered a few words to Ye Ziyi.
Ye Ziyi frowned slightly, picked up the tissue on the table, and gently wiped the corners of her mouth.
"I see. You make the arrangements and I'll go meet him."
"yes."
Tian Kun nodded, glanced at Qiong out of the corner of his eye, then turned and left.
"Achen, you accompany Miss Qiong for supper first, I'll go over for a while."
Ye Ziyi slowly stood up and said to Xiao Chen.
"Are the people from the Gabil family here?"
Suddenly, Joan asked.
Hearing what Qiong said, Ye Ziyi looked at her and smiled, "Anasi is here, I'll go meet him... Miss Qiong, you can live here with peace of mind. Since Achen brought you back, you are my friend, Ye Ziyi."
"Thank you, Miss Ye."
Joan nodded, feeling somewhat grateful.
"Do you need me to join you?"
Xiao Chen looked at Ye Ziyi and asked.
"No, I can do it myself. Please accompany Miss Joan for dinner."
Ye Ziyi shook her head and left the restaurant.
"Eat your meal in peace, don't think too much."
Xiao Chen turned around and said to Qiong.
"If... Miss Ye can't stand the pressure anymore, you can hand me over... That's fine too."
Joan hesitated and spoke slowly.
"Haha, I told you, don't think too much... Since I brought you out of the Gebir Building, I will naturally not send you back."
Xiao Chen smiled.
"Come on, eat more."
"Thanks."
Joan said softly.
On the other side, Ye Ziyi met Anas.
"Hello, Miss Ye."
"I wonder what's the matter with Mr. Anas coming to my place so late at night?"
Ye Ziyi looked at Anas and asked.
"Ms. Ye, it's still about the phone call..."
Anas didn't waste any words and spoke directly.
"Mr. Anas, if you still want to say what you said on the phone, I'm sorry, I don't think we have anything to talk about."
Ye Ziyi interrupted Anas and said lightly.
"Ms. Ye, you and I both know that Lu Kai is dead. He is just a chess piece... As long as you are willing to hand over the killer, my Gebier family can give up the bet we agreed on last time. How about that?"
Anas said solemnly.
Ye Ziyi was a little surprised when she heard Anas' words. Giving up the bet? Qiong, is it worth it for the Gebil family to do this?
"Ms. Ye, to put it bluntly, what I want is the girl named 'Qiong', the one the killer took away from the Gebir Building."
Anas looked at Ye Ziyi and said slowly.
"As long as Miss Ye hands her over to me, I can give up the bet we made last time and gamble with the Ye family again."
"No need. I don't know any killer, let alone the 'Qiong' you mentioned, so... it's still the same as it should be."
Ye Ziyi shook her head and said.
"It seems that Miss Ye has made up her mind not to hand the person over?"
Anas looked at Ye Ziyi and asked in a deep voice.
"If this is what Mr. Anas came for, then he can leave now."
Ye Ziyi said lightly.
"Okay, I can leave, but I hope Miss Ye can understand that there are some people who cannot be touched... When we win the next bet, I hope... I can exchange Miss Ye for Qiong."
Anas said, then stood up and left.
Ye Ziyi looked at Anas' back and narrowed her eyes.
"Miss."
Tian Kun stepped forward.
"Go check 'Joan's' identity."
Ye Ziyi retracted her gaze and spoke slowly.
"yes."
Tian Kun nodded.
"I am getting more and more curious about her. Let me first check with the Gabil family to see if anyone knows her identity."
Ye Ziyi said to Tian Kun.
"good."
Tian Kun agreed and left.
After staying alone for a while, Ye Ziyi returned to the restaurant.
She noticed that June was looking at her and seemed a little nervous.
"Gone?"
Xiao Chen asked.
"Well, let's go."
Ye Ziyi nodded.
"Let's continue with our midnight snack."
"Haha, okay."
Xiao Chen smiled.
Qiong next to her also breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that Ye Ziyi had no intention of handing her over.
After dinner, Joan returned to her room.
She was considering whether to leave.
She didn't know whether the Ye family and Ye Ziyi could withstand the pressure from the Gabil family.
"Are you really not curious about Joan's identity?"
In the room, Ye Ziyi looked at Xiao Chen and asked.
"A little bit, but she didn't say it, and I didn't want to ask."
Xiao Chen shrugged.
"We just met by chance, why bother to find out her background... As long as she has no ill will towards us, that's enough."
"Um."
Ye Ziyi nodded, but she would still check what she needed to.
"You've been tired all day, go to bed early."
"I'm not tired. I think... I can still exercise for a few hours."
Xiao Chen shook his head and said seriously.
“…”
Ye Ziyi was speechless. Of course she understood what Xiao Chen meant.
"I'm going to take a shower first."
Xiao Chen said as he was about to go to the bathroom.
"oh?"
Ye Ziyi was a little surprised when she heard Xiao Chen's words.
"Didn't you say that it doesn't matter whether I take a shower or not? I have to take a shower after exercising anyway."
"Today is different."
Xiao Chen shook his head.
"Why?"
Ye Ziyi was curious.
"Because...I killed someone today."
Xiao Chen finished speaking and walked into the bathroom.
Ye Ziyi was stunned, looking at the bathroom door, and took a long time to recover.
About ten minutes later, Xiao Chen came out of the bathroom.
Ye Ziyi stepped forward and was about to put a bathrobe on him.
However, before she could put it on, Xiao Chen picked her up by the waist.
"I have to take it off anyway, so why put it on?"
Xiao Chen said as he strode towards the big bed.
The lights are out.
Soon, an alluring voice was heard in the room.
At dawn, Ye Ziyi got up first.
She looked at Xiao Chen beside her, stood up, put on her clothes, and tiptoed out of the bedroom.
When she arrived at the restaurant, Tian Kun was already waiting for her.
"Miss, I found it."
"Um."
Ye Ziyi nodded and took the information handed over by Tian Kun.
"Did you find out from the Gabier family?"
"no."
Tian Kun shook his head.
“Only a few people know about it over there, and it’s impossible to find out…Miss, you should take a look first.”
After hearing what Tian Kun said, Ye Ziyi became curious and opened the information.
When she saw something, her eyelids twitched slightly.
"Are you sure?"
"Sure."
Tian Kun nodded.
“I never expected that…”
Ye Ziyi narrowed her eyes, then began to look at the information carefully again.
After reading it, she thought about it and gave the information to Tian Kun: "Destroy it."
"Miss, don't you need to show it to Mr. Xiao?"
Tian Kun was stunned and asked.
"No, don't tell him about this."
Ye Ziyi shook her head, revealing a look that seemed to be neither a smile nor a smile.
"Haha, I just saved a beautiful woman, but... Tian Kun, you are not allowed to tell anyone, understand?"
"yes."
Tian Kun was surprised, but still nodded.
