Chapter 605: Chapter 605: I’m Here, Let Her Go Chapter 605: Chapter 605: I’m Here, Let Her Go The woman was infuriated by Qiao Yun again, and said in a fit of rage, “If it weren’t for Dr. Qiao’s sake, do you think we would be treating you to good food and drink? We would have thrown you into the warehouse and tied you up by now! Dr. Qiao, if you don’t take care of her, don’t bla for being rough.”
Qiao Xun ignored the woman jumping up and down and said to Qiao Yun in a gentle voice, “Qiaoqiao, are you tired? Why don’t you go and rest for a while?”
Qiao Yun didn’t respond to Qiao Xun, but she stood up, as just waiting like this was not an option.
Seeing that Qiao Yun was ignoring him, Qiao Xun felt a trace of bitterness in his heart. He must have disappointed Qiaoqiao, hadn’t he?
Qiao Yun actually wasn’t as composed as she appeared on the surface. The fact that this group knew about Li Hanzhou’s existence had thrown a wrench into her plans.
Qiao Yun lowered her eyes, pondering her next move in her mind.
Elsewhere.
Pei Yao was searching for Qiao Yun so frantically that he nearly got blisters on his lips. As ti went on, he beca more and more restless.
He didn’t know what Qiao Yun was up to, why she still hadn’t contacted them.
Even though the organization had thrown all the trackers on Qiao Yun into the sea, it wasn’t impossible for Qiao Yun to contact them if she wanted to – after all, the thing she had asked him to bring to her before going to Hai City was a small tracker.
This tracker had been personally developed by Qiao Yun.
Thin as a cicada’s wing and only the size of a fingernail, it could change its color to blend in with its surroundings, aning if it were attached to the skin, it would take on the color of the skin, just like a chaleon.
Most importantly, no machine could detect its presence.
Pei Yao, annoyed, pounded the table with his hand. How had he failed to notice at the ti that Professor Qiao had the intention of risking her own life?
Just then, Pei Yao received a ssage. He opened it and his pupils contracted sharply. He shot up from his chair.
Then he took out his phone and made a call, his handso face stern.
“I know where Professor Qiao is now. Get your n ready and co with to pick her up!”
He also notified his private plane to co imdiately. After confirming that everything was arranged properly, he hurried to the rendezvous point.
He had just taken a step when he paused. He made a phone call to Lu Zhanxing.
Lu Zhanxing, with no heart for work, had suspended all his work, and had not closed his eyes all night, staring blankly at his phone.
It was almost driving Xie Ying crazy with worry.
Suddenly receiving a call from Pei Yao, Lu Zhanxing asked anxiously and flustered, “Did they find my sister?”
“We have news of Professor Qiao,” Pei Yao said calmly. “I’m on my way to find Professor Qiao now. Don’t worry, I will bring her back safely.”
“Wait, I’m coming too!” Lu Zhanxing rose from his chair.
“No.”
Pei Yao declared bluntly, “Professor Qiao didn’t tell you about this, which ans she didn’t want you involved. Just wait for my news.”
To make Lu Zhanxing give up, he rcilessly added, “Don’t cause any trouble.”
Lu Zhanxing opened his mouth, his hand gripping the phone tightly. After a mont, he said softly, “I understand.”
He couldn’t be of any help, so the least he could do was not to cause any more chaos.
…
Over here.
Qiao Yun glanced at the exquisite breakfast in front of her and then looked up at Qiao Xun, who was staring at her from across the table.
“Don’t worry, it’s not poisoned. Don’t starve yourself,” Qiao Xun said as he took so food and put it into his mouth first.
The woman who had been watching them snickered with scorn and disdain, “Is Professor Qiao really that cowardly? Don’t worry. As long as Dr. Qiao wants to protect you, we won’t do anything excessive to you.”
Qiao Yun ignored the woman’s sarcastic tone. She picked up her chopsticks, nodding to Qiao Xun, “I’m reassured, uncle won’t hurt .”
She was just wondering, as a hostage, was it really okay to eat so well?
Seeing that Qiao Yun was willing to eat, Qiao Xun also breathed a sigh of relief, but upon hearing her latter words, he couldn’t help but chuckle, “After all this, how can you still trust .”
Qiao Yun ate quietly, while Qiao Xun just quietly watched her.
After Qiao Yun finished eating, she slowly replied, “I don’t know, it’s instinct.”
Qiao Xun was stunned for a mont, and realizing she was responding to his earlier comnt, he said with a wry smile, “Instincts aren’t always right.”
“Is that so,” Qiao Yun said indifferently.
But her instincts were always very accurate.
Qiao Yun lifted her eyelids, staring intently at the person opposite her, that odd feeling within her resurfacing.
At this mont, another man who had been watching Qiao Yun ca in, followed by a group of rcenaries. His voice devoid of any emotion, “Professor Qiao, please co with us.”
He turned his head, addressing Qiao Xun, “Doctor Qiao was right, capturing Professor Qiao would be enough to draw out Li Hanzhou.”
Qiao Yun’s indifferent face showed no emotion, her brows tightly furrowed.
Qiao Xun smiled at Qiao Yun, “You see, I was right. You want to protect him, and he very much wants to protect you.”
Qiao Yun pursed her lips and silently stood up, walking outside under the watchful eyes of the group.
Even though it was nearly spring, the temperature near the sea was still very low. A sea breeze blew in her face, and Qiao Yun wrapped her coat tighter, her fingers touching the button on her cuff.
She had already decided that if these people dared to do anything unfavorable to Li Hanzhou, she would blow them up first.
Although this was different from her initial plan, wasn’t her goal to avoid seeing Li Hanzhou get involved?
As for the mastermind behind the secret organization, she would catch them one day.
With these thoughts, Qiao Yun was brought to the seaside.
The sea breeze was strong. She blinked against the wind and saw Li Hanzhou getting off a boat, wearing an exquisite suit, his hair combed perfectly, his dignified and elegant deanor like he wasn’t there to et a group of ill-intentioned people, but rather to attend a high-class cocktail party.
Qiao Yun’s gaze followed Li Hanzhou, her eyes still bright, and it seed there was sothing else indescribable in them.
She only knew that when she saw Li Hanzhou approaching,
Her heart uncontrollably skipped a beat, feeling complicated yet joyful.
This was a man who would not hesitate to give up his life for her.
Li Hanzhou’s gaze fell directly on Qiao Yun, giving her a head-to-toe once-over, “Kid, are you hurt?”
“I’m fine,” Qiao Yun reassured him. “I’m very good.”
Seeing that she didn’t have a hint of fear, Li Hanzhou smiled lightly, “You did well. Leave the rest to .”
Qiao Yun lowered her voice, “You shouldn’t have co, I told you, trust .”
“I trust you,” Li Hanzhou sighed. “But I also want to protect you.”
Hearing him say this, Qiao Yun unexpectedly felt a bit cheerful.
She and Li Hanzhou had no blood relationship and hadn’t had any interaction over the past decade.
Yet he said, he wanted to protect her.
Li Hanzhou then looked at the people holding Qiao Yun, his gaze finally resting on Qiao Xun. With a smile that wasn’t quite a smile, he said, “I’m here, let her go.”
