    Alas, it’s so childish to trick her into a maze or something like that.

    Of course, no one even believes in this method.

    Qiao Qiao held her knees, calmed her breathing for a while, and continued to run forward resignedly. She remembered that she had seen the solution to the maze. As long as she touched the wall and kept moving forward, she would be able to get out sooner or later.

    She felt that the person who wrote this solution should make an extra note at the end——

    Only suitable for small mazes.

    For this kind of maze, which is almost half the size of a football field, the wall-touching method has no effect except to consume her little remaining energy.

    She checked her phone, but there was still no news from Qin Ruicheng.Come to think of it, he is grandma’s most beloved grandson. He must have gone to the hospital to pick her up early in the morning. In a place like that, the phone must be muted.

    Only 10 minutes left.

    Qiao Qiao simply refused to leave and sat down on the spot to think of a solution.

    First of all, she couldn’t give up, otherwise she would be fulfilling those people’s wishes, and she would still have to get out of the maze even if her teeth were broken.Secondly, the old lady hates people who are not punctual, so she wants to come out before the birthday party starts.

    Although she was not Qin Ruicheng’s, since she was brought back, she could not embarrass him.

    His back felt itchy. When Qiao Qiao reached out and touched it, his fingertips felt painful.

    This leguminous plant is not only hard and leafy, but also has many sharp short thorns. If she breaks through it, it will definitely be poked into honeycomb.

    If only someone knew where she was…

    Wait.

    Location????

    Qiao Qiao was so enlightened that he slapped his thigh suddenly.

    She is really stupid. She has a ready-made “gold finger” and doesn’t need it. Why is she wandering around here?

    With trembling hands, she dialed Zhou Yuanchuan’s number. The few seconds it took for her to get through felt extremely long.

    Be sure to receive it, be sure to receive it——

    “Hello?” The man’s gentle and pleasant voice sounded, and Qiao Qiao breathed a sigh of relief.

    “Mr. Zhou, is it convenient for you to answer the phone now?”

    “Wait a minute.”

    Qiao Qiao suddenly stopped panicking. She put the phone to her ear and waited quietly, listening to the vague words such as ‘urgent’, ‘suspend’ and ‘must’ coming from the other end of the phone.

    “Hey.” Zhou Yuanchuan’s voice came back, “What happened?”

    “I…I’m lost. Oh no, I broke into a maze and can’t get out.”

    After she finished speaking, she felt that she had talked a lot of nonsense, without explaining the cause and effect. She came up and talked about a maze. Zhou Yuanchuan didn’t think that she was looking for his happiness in the amusement park, right?

    Just as he was about to explain, the person on the other end of the phone said, “I understand.”

    After saying that, the phone was hung up.

    Qiao Qiao was confused.

    She dialed again, and all she heard from the phone was a beeping busy tone.

    Well, it looks like the last option won’t work either.

    She sat down on the ground and stared blankly at the tall acacia fence, reflecting on what she had done wrong to offend even the best-tempered Zhou Yuanchuan.

    Woohoo, boss, love me again.

    The sound of car horns was heard in the distance. Qiao Qiao guessed that the car was coming back to pick up the old lady. The birthday party was about to start.

    Qin Ruicheng’s phone number was also dialed. His voice was light and breathy: “Xiao Qiao, what’s wrong? I was in the hospital just now.”

    Qiao Qiao took a deep breath: “It’s okay, I’m just asking.”

    “Haha, you miss me after not seeing each other for so long?”

    “…That’s not true.”

    “Just be tough.” He suddenly lowered his voice, “I told grandma that you were my girlfriend and grandma wanted to meet you.”

    Qiao Qiao was silent for a while: “This is not good, it’s better to disappear.”

    The person on the other end of the phone was quiet for a moment and said in a joking tone: “What’s wrong? Although grandma likes big breasts and big butts for fertility, you can use them.”

    “Qin Qin, really, it’s better to say goodbye.”

    “No.” The man’s voice instantly became low and irritable, “Where are you? I’m going to catch you now.”

    Qiao Qiao smiled bitterly. She didn’t even know where this was, so it was strange that she could find it.

    “I was joking just now.” Qiao Qiao changed his tone, “You go ahead and go over there after I change my clothes.”

    “Really?” He was suspicious instinctively.

    “Of course, this is no small matter. If you don’t take care of it, how can you see grandma?”

    The two hidden words in her words pleased Qin Ruicheng, who breathed a sigh of relief, but still threatened: “Okay, if you dare to escape from the battlefield, see how I deal with you.”

    “Hmm, go get busy.”

    After hanging up the phone, Qiao Qiao felt a little sad in his heart.Qin Ruicheng has a beast-like intuition. If there weren’t too many things that needed to be done by him personally, he probably wouldn’t let her go so easily.

    Qiao Qiao looked at his watch. There were only a few minutes left.

    Just when she was desperate to accept the reality, the phone rang again.

    Qiao Qiao didn’t even look at who was calling, but numbly pressed the answer button.

    Zhou Yuanchuan’s voice was calm and steady: “Turn left at the fork in front.”

    “What?”

    Zhou Yuanchuan: “Aren’t you going to get out of the maze?”

    Qiao Qiao was dumbfounded and couldn’t say anything: “But…I…here…”

    “If you delay any longer, you won’t be able to make it to the birthday party.”

    She finally found her voice: “How do you know!”

    The man smiled and coughed twice unexpectedly. His vocal cords vibrated slightly, showing a bit of vulnerability: “Why would Qin Ruicheng take you back at this time?”

    Qiao Qiao wanted to ask him if he was sick, but Zhou Yuanchuan intercepted her first: “If you continue to sit still, I can’t help you.”

    She suddenly remembered that there was still an important matter that had not been resolved. She rolled and crawled towards the left fork in the road. Zhou Yuanchuan’s voice came at the right time: “Go straight to the end and turn right.”

    Qiao Qiao asked curiously as he ran: “Can mobile phone positioning be so accurate now?”

    Because the passages in the maze are relatively narrow, even if Zhou Yuanchuan had a bird’s eye view, he should not have given such precise instructions.

    Zhou Yuanchuan was silent for a while: “I can see you.”

    “Eh?”

    Qiao Qiao raised his head reflexively. The sky above his head was blue and clear, with no clouds at all.

    “How did you see it? A drone?”

    “Well…a little more advanced. Turn left.”

    Qiao Qiao quickened his pace: “For example?”

    “Satellite.”

    “Huh?”

    “There happened to be a weather satellite passing above your head, so I called it.” The man looked a little shy, “It’s faster this way.”

    This, this, this…

    Qiao Qiao was burned inside and out by the thunder. As the saying goes, anti-aircraft cannons are overqualified to kill mosquitoes, but Zhou Yuanchuan is using nuclear bombs to bombard paramecium!

    “Actually, you don’t have to be so, so exaggerated.” She thought for a long time before choosing a word that would not hurt the other person’s heart but could convey her shock appropriately.

    “Turn right. It’s not troublesome. It’s a piece of cake.”

    Raise your hand…Raise your hand a satellite?

    “It makes me happy if you think of calling me.”

    Qiao Qiao’s face turned red, because she found that she would only think of Zhou Yuanchuan when she encountered something that could not be solved. Zhou Yuanchuan had been in the United States for so long, and she had not even made a condolence call. Occasionally, she still asked him to help.

    Suddenly realized that I was a scumbag.jpg

    With Zhou Yuanchuan’s remote guidance, Qiao Qiao finally found the exit, but unfortunately she had gone too far in the maze. She hurriedly and slowly still passed the time.

    Qiao Qiao was very frustrated: “Forget it, I won’t go.”

    “Why?”

    “I heard that Qin Ruicheng’s grandma hates people who have no sense of time. Rather than being late, she would rather not go because she is sick.”

    The man said gently: “Let’s go. Although I don’t quite understand the relationship between people that is maintained by blood, but if I were Qin Ruicheng, I would want you to show up.”

    “But…”

    “Go.” He urged again, “If you really feel sorry, you can bring a small gift.”

    Qiao Qiao looked around, and finally picked some acacias and grass leaves to make a garland. Of course, the thorns were shaved off.

    “Are you still looking at me?”

    “Yeah.”

    Qiao Qiao waved his hand to the sky: “Can you see it?”

    “Yes.”

    “Mr. Zhou, thank you.”

    There was a smile in the man’s voice: “I’ll watch you go in.”

    “Okay!”

    Qiao Qiao stepped up the steps in three steps and ran towards the restaurant.

    She pushed the door open with all her strength. She thought that the banquet had just begun and there was a high chance that she could sneak in during the chaos. She didn’t expect that the world behind the door would be so silent…

    The sound of her opening the door attracted dozens of eyes, as if a spotlight was pinning her there, unable to move.

    There was a white-haired old lady sitting at the end of the extended red carpet at her feet. The old lady was wearing a red brocade Tang suit, her hair was neatly combed, and she looked at her with an extremely stern look.

    Qin Ruicheng was half-bending to serve her tea when he saw Qiao Qiao and almost dropped the tea bowl.

    “Happy birthday grandma!” Qiao Qiao’s forehead was sweating, and she couldn’t help but get stage fright at this time.

    She preemptively shouted sweetly, then took out the garland she had made, showing courtesy on the surface but actually easing the embarrassment, and trotted over: “Grandma, let me put it on for you!”

    Oh haha.

    When she was still ten meters away from the chair, she was caught by two bodyguards in black who appeared out of nowhere.

    Qiao Qiao didn’t dare to move anymore, because the bodyguard in black seemed to think she was an assassin.

    Qin Ruicheng was anxious. Just as he was about to speak, the old lady opened her mouth: “Who are you?”

    Qiao Qiao endured the pain of his arm being twisted and smiled: “My name is Qiao Qiao, and I am Qin Ruicheng’s girlfriend.”

    The whole place was in an uproar.

    There happened to be a table of young girls next to her. Qiao Qiao heard someone whispering “bitch”, but she had no time to care who it was.

    The eldest lady’s expression was quite kind: “Mom, this girl was indeed brought by Ruicheng, but I heard that she and Ruicheng only have a working relationship.”

    The old lady looked intently: “Did I ask you?”

    The eldest lady’s smile split into two pieces, she lowered her head and remained silent.

    “Ruicheng, tell me.”

    Qin Ruicheng put down the tea bowl respectfully: “Grandma, she is indeed my girlfriend.”

    One word after another, each word is clear and clanging on the ground.
