    After listening to Zhou Yuanchuan’s explanation, Qiao Qiao realized how much trouble he had caused the three men.

    “I’m sorry…” She squeezed out these three words dryly, “I, I didn’t think about it that much at the time.”

    “I’m not here to hear an apology.” The male voice in the headset said calmly, “I need an explanation.”

    Qiao Qiao: “…”

    “Still not telling?”

    Qiao Qiao’s back was dripping with sweat. Zhou Yuanchuan was actually far less oppressive than Song Qiyan gave her. Qiao Qiao was even sure that even if she made up her mind not to speak today, Zhou Yuanchuan would not force her.

    But when he thought that the other party had gone to the hospital and fell into a coma in order to find her, Qiao Qiao felt that he was worse than a beast for hiding everything at this time.

    But just because these men are good to her, doesn’t that mean they will be good to Qin Ruicheng?They have such great authority now that they can browse the entire backend data of Paradise Island at will. Once the information is revealed, they may be able to find Qin Ruicheng immediately.

    Qiao Qiao really had no idea what would happen after he found it.

    “I…I want to tell you later.” Qiao Qiao whispered, “When I finish confirming, I will explain everything clearly. I don’t say it now because I have difficulties.”

    There was silence in the headset, and Qiao Qiao was extremely uneasy. Finally, he waited for some movement, but his voice changed.

    “What on earth are you thinking about?”

    Qiao Qiao breathed out, and sure enough, someone was replaced.

    Liang Jize’s voice is hard to mistake, and such cello-like timbre is very rare among the crowd.It’s just that the words spoken are far less pleasant than the voice.

    “Come back from that damn island quickly, or I will catch you myself.” He gritted his teeth on every word, showing that he was extremely angry.

    Even though he was far away across the ocean, Qiao Qiao subconsciously shrank his neck.

    However, her body was frightened, but her mind was not. She whispered: “You shouldn’t be able to get through, otherwise you would have come to arrest me long ago. Why don’t you wait until now…”

    “Say that again?!”

    Qiao Qiao: “Wow, wow, I was wrong!”

    At the same time, all the electrical appliances in the house began to switch on and off like crazy, and there was a loud beeping sound, and the whole house felt like it was about to explode.

    Qiao Qiao: “…”

    Ah, I really feel Liang Jize’s anger.

    Seeing that he could not comfort the other party, Qiao Qiao had to resort to the stupidest but most effective method – passing out.

    When she woke up again, there was a nurse in white standing beside the bed. She took Qiao Qiao’s temperature and blood pressure, and brought her a meal.

    To be honest, Qiao Qiao has no appetite at all.Although she was very hungry, it took time to adapt after she had just escaped from a depressing environment. Now that she closed her eyes, she was still in the narrow corridor and endless darkness. How could she swallow anything?

    After only taking a few bites of the meal, she put it down and waved her hand for the nurse to leave.

    “Keep eating.” Song Qiyan’s voice suddenly sounded.

    Qiao Qiao was startled and almost knocked over the plate in front of him.

    She subconsciously raised her head and met the nurse’s gaze. The nurse looked at her strangely: “What’s wrong with you?”

    “It’s okay…you go out first, I will eat for a while.”

    “Okay, I’ll come back in an hour.”

    After the ward door was closed, Qiao Qiao whispered: “I really can’t eat anymore. I’ve had a nutritional injection.”

    There was silence in the headset. Qiao Qiao sighed and had no choice but to pick up the chopsticks again and try to stuff various foods into his mouth.

    It wasn’t until most of the food on the plate was eaten that Song Qiyan spoke again: “That’s it.”

    Qiao Qiao burped: “It’s okay, as long as it can calm you down, I’ll have no problem eating ten more plates.”

    “I’m not going to let that deter me.”

    Qiao Qiao: “…”

    Neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere gradually became awkward. Qiao Qiao wanted to say something else to change the topic, but he still talked about the maze: “Ah Qing and Zhang Jie, how are they?”

    Song Qiyan: “Are you afraid that I won’t fulfill my promise?”

    “Uh, that’s not what I meant…”

    “Don’t worry, they are fine.”

    “…”

    Qiao Qiao felt that she was shrinking smaller and smaller. She was almost embarrassed to talk to Song Qiyan.

    “Well, thanks to you for this maze, wait, when I go back, I will treat you to a meal, a big meal!”

    “No need.”

    Qiao Qiao: Woohoo, how should you deal with a man who is out of touch and angry?Waiting online, urgent!

    She was at a loss when she didn’t expect Song Qiyan to take the initiative to change the subject: “You already know the content of privileges, right?”

    “Well, choose one of three, the first one is-”

    “I also know the content.”

    Qiao Qiao immediately shut his mouth.

    Song Qiyan: “I want you to choose the third one and withdraw from the competition.”

    “Eh?”

    “After quitting the competition, don’t take the charter flight from Paradise Island and return to the ‘human world’ as quickly as possible. I have already booked a hotel. Once you check in, don’t go out again. Wait for me to pick you up.”

    “Wait a minute!” Qiao Qiao quickly interrupted him, “Why should I withdraw from the competition?”

    Song Qiyan asked: “Why can’t you withdraw from the competition?”

    “Because I need the championship reward of the insect fighting competition. If I withdraw from the competition, I won’t be able to realize my wish…”

    “What is your wish?”

    Qiao Qiao was silent for a while: “I can’t tell you.”

    The man smiled slightly: “It seems that the realization of this wish depends on whether I know it or not.”

    “…”

    Song Qiyan: “There is only one possibility. I will definitely stop you after I know your wish.”

    Qiao Qiao pursed her lips tightly and remained silent.

    She knew Song Qiyan was testing her, and she didn’t have the ability not to be tested by him, so the only way was to grit her teeth and say nothing, not even a single syllable.

    Fortunately, the two of them were on a voice call, so she could hold on for a while longer. If she had faced Song Qiyan’s face, she would have been defeated long ago.

    “I consider myself not to be harsh, and there aren’t many things that I can ‘definitely stop’.”

    Qiao Qiao swallowed nervously.

    “Unless you want to leave me.”

    Right!That’s why!Please don’t dwell on it any more!

    “No.” Song Qiyan quickly overturned himself, “You chose to hide it from three people at the same time, which means that this wish is related to at least three people.”

    Qiao Qiao’s heart sank, and she had a bad feeling.

    “It’s something we will definitely stop you from doing.” Song Qiyan said those three words softly, “Qin Ruicheng.”

    “What does it have to do with him? He is staying well in the country.” Qiao Qiao said firmly, “It’s really not what you think…”

    “Qiao Qiao, I sent the news of your disappearance to the Qin family three times, but Qin Ruicheng didn’t respond at all.”

    “…”

    “I have known Qin Ruicheng for as long as you.”

    “…”

    “It doesn’t matter if you don’t want to say it, I can wait.”

    Qiao Qiao lowered his head: “No, I said…”

    She failed completely. After working hard for more than a month, Song Qiyan guessed everything. Although she had a premonition, the frustration was still extremely uncomfortable.

    Qiao Qiao started talking about it when she discovered something was wrong with Qin Ruicheng, and continued until Jian Baiyou brought her to Paradise Island.

    “You should know what happens next.” She said in frustration, “I didn’t mean not to say it, I was just afraid -”

    “You’re afraid we’ll kill him.”

    Qiao Qiao couldn’t help but said: “Can you do it?”

    The room was very quiet, and the ticking of the clock on the wall could be heard very clearly. Qiao Qiao felt that the few seconds of waiting were as long as decades.

    “No.” The person in the headset seemed to smile, “Xiao Qiao, how could I do such a cruel thing?”

    Qiao Qiao was immediately heartbroken.

    She moved her lips: “I will withdraw from the competition, or I can never see him again… I just ask you to save him. As long as he returns home safely, I can promise anything!”

    “You’re tired, rest.”

    Qiao Qiao couldn’t help it anymore and cried: “Song Qiyan, I beg you! Qin Ruicheng is no longer a threat to you! If he loses his family, he will no longer argue with you! Isn’t this the case?!”

    “You think too much. I won’t do anything to him. Qin Ruicheng is also my friend.”

    Qiao Qiao became more and more desperate: “You swear.”

    Song Qiyan: “I swear.”

    “We can’t hurt him, we want him to return home safely.”

    “Okay.”

    Qiao Qiao suddenly covered his head: “No, you can let others do it, or you can pretend it’s an accident… You can do too much, swearing is useless, nothing is useful…”

    “Xiao Qiao, quit the game.”

    Qiao Qiao whispered: “Can you find him?”

    Song Qiyan was silent for a moment: “It’s not difficult. Paradise Island is highly informatized, so you can definitely find it if you search slowly.”

    “I’m going to quit.”

    “Okay.” The man’s voice became gentler, “Wait for me to pick you up.”

    “I won’t get on the plane until I see Qin Ruicheng.” Qiao Qiao pursed his lips, “If he’s not on the plane, I won’t go back.”

    There was silence in the headset for a moment, and Song Qiyan sighed: “Xiao Qiao, you should seriously learn how to negotiate.”

    “Why?”

    He hinted cryptically: “Because you can easily have the opposite effect.”

    Qiao Qiao choked.

    In fact, she also knew that the more seriously she valued Qin Ruicheng, the more likely Song Qiyan would kill him.But I understand the truth, and if it really comes down to myself, I won’t dare to take any risk.

    She was really afraid that Song Qiyan would finally give her the news that Qin Ruicheng had died accidentally.

    At least with this arrangement, he can return home alive.

    This was the only thing she could do for him right now.
