Yue Qingqing felt a chill listening to the other person’s tone.
It seed Quentin also realized that acting was useless on her and decided to take matters into his own hands.
"What do you want?"
Listening to Yue Qingqing’s still relatively calm voice, Quentin chuckled lightly.
"Tomorrow, south entrance of Beijing train station, I’ll be waiting for Miss Yue."
Yue Qingqing responded coldly, "What makes you think I’d put myself in danger for soone else?"
She knew that the more she showed she cared about Fan Yingxue, the more dangerous it was for the other person.
However, Quentin had long investigated Yue Qingqing.
"Don’t speak in that tone, cutie. We found so of your deeds while you were in China. You noticed sothing was wrong on a plane and took the risk of being considered crazy to alert the crew, asking all passengers to disembark. You even care about strangers’ safety. How would you possibly watch your roommate die?"
Yue Qingqing felt a chill in her heart.
Not only because of the things he ntioned offhandedly but also because of the "they" in Quentin’s words.
This made Yue Qingqing realize that he was not acting alone and that there was likely a large organization behind him.
More frightening than she had imagined.
Given this, Yue Qingqing no longer tried to probe.
"How can I ensure her safety? I’m no fool. It would be a one-way trip for . Why would you release her after getting ?"
Quentin’s tone carried so appreciation, "I like smart girls, but being too smart isn’t great. Don’t worry, we have our credibility. The value of you and her is worlds apart. With you, we naturally don’t need her."
"Cut the crap. I need a guarantee of her absolute safety."
Quentin sighed, "Fine, what do you suggest?"
"Tomorrow I’ll leave from school. You’ll escort her back. Soone will be waiting for her on campus. When I get a call confirming she’s safely returned, I’ll go with you."
"Do you think you have a choice?" Quentin said flatly, "Or maybe you want to hear the screams as her fingers are cut off?"
Yue Qingqing laughed coldly, "You can try. I want my friend back intact. That’s the bottom line. If you harm her, I won’t show up at the station as you wish."
Yue Qingqing’s tone was resolute, making Quentin squint his eyes unconsciously.
Weighing the pros and cons in his mind.
He didn’t expect Yue Qingqing to be so clear-headed, but fortunately, people in China hold emotional ties dear, and she was indeed willing to trade herself for this girl.
All in all, this deal was worth it.
Otherwise, with Yue Qingqing hiding on campus, even they found it hard to make a move.
Since the assassin incident, the school’s security asures had been significantly strengthened.
Every ti soone entered or left, anyone from outside had to go through a security check.
Killing might be possible, but quietly kidnapping soone was quite challenging.
If it weren’t for enticing Fan Yingxue under the guise of romance, there might not have been a breakthrough in this matter.
"Such a stubborn girl. Alright, as you wish."
Quentin finally agreed to Yue Qingqing’s demand.
Hanging up the phone, Yue Qingqing felt as if she had been thrown into a freezing wilderness.
Her whole body was cold.
She never expected that despite all her precautions, they would despicably exploit soone close to her.
Before Yue Qingqing could co up with a plan, her phone received another ssage.
"Cutie, don’t think about calling the police. We’re watching your every move. Calling the police will only have your friend end up in a body bag."
Yue Qingqing thought of the constant feeling of being watched these days and understood that the threat was not empty words.
