Xu Qian: ...
Now Xu Lü has two personalities, one is like a child, and the other is slightly more mature than a child, but still a child.
For so long, Xu Lü's favorability has remained at 35, unmoving.
Familial affection is hard to increase, and Xu Lü treats her like a sister.
Now with Xiao Ping, using the strategy of a romantic relationship might be faster.
Xu Qian's temples throbbed, one word: annoying.
Xu Lü and Xiao Ping were different. Xu Lü was light-footed when getting into the car. After entering, she would look at her before returning to the driver's seat.
She covered her head with the quilt and soon fell asleep.
She wouldn't dare to sleep with Xiao Ping driving, but she still trusted Xu Lü.
X Group Headquarters. W Base.
Lian Du rushed to headquarters to find Hui Feichi as soon as he got off the plane.
"Knock, knock, knock..."
"Come in."
The man, dressed in a white shirt and black trousers, stood straight and was handling official business.
He seemed to have recovered from his injuries.
"Hui Feichi, where is Xu Qian?"
Hui Feichi, without looking up, said, "She ran off."
Lian Du's lips tightened. He knew she had run off, but where she went was the key.
Hui Feichi would have certainly exploded before, but now he sat calmly...
Something was definitely wrong.
Hui Feichi casually signed his name and explained, "Lian Du, she's infected with cold poison. She can't stand it and will come back on her own."
Lian Du was truly perplexed by his attitude. He helplessly offered a suggestion, "Then give me some of the single-dose antidote."
The cold poison was agonizing when it flared up. With medicine on hand, if he could find her, she would at least be a little more comfortable.
Hui Feichi obviously wouldn't give it to him. He spoke to usher him away, "Go and focus on establishing the new base immediately. Don't worry about Xu Qian's matters; I'll send people to keep an eye on her."
Lian Du narrowed his fox-like eyes. Based on his many years of interaction with Hui Feichi,
He was acting strangely.
Especially when it came to Xu Qian. In the past, he would have been eager to capture her immediately. Now, he was unusually calm, even trying to send him away?
"Hui Feichi, you don't happen to like Xu Qian, do you?"
He had been running around to various bases for half a month, not having a single free moment.
Xu Qian was so beautiful, and Hui Feichi spent so much time with her. It was normal for him to develop feelings.
The man put down his pen and scoffed, "Lian Du, how could I like her? You're thinking too much."
Lian Du narrowed his eyes, trying to find a hint of something amiss on his face, but found nothing.
He secretly breathed a sigh of relief, hoping he truly didn't.
After Lian Du left, Hui Feichi pressed his throbbing head and leaned back on the leather sofa, closing his eyes.
But his tightly clenched hands betrayed his inner turmoil.
U Base.
Xu Qian unfolded the tattered map in her hand.
It showed that U Base was surrounded by four mountain peaks. There was no other way up the mountain except to climb on foot. It was very remote.
Xiao Ping looked up at the extremely high mountain, his expression troubled.
"Xu Qian, we have to walk?"
Xu Qian nodded indifferently and said, "We can't drive in there."
Xiao Ping crossed his arms, looking relaxed.
"I don't want to walk."
Xu Qian glanced at him and said in a flat tone, "Then you can wait here for me."
With that, Xu Qian turned and walked away, not caring if he followed.
Xiao Ping and Xu Lü had a fatal advantage: both were extraordinarily clingy to her and basically followed her wherever she went.
Unless there were special circumstances.
"Xu Qian, wait for me!!"
The mountain path was particularly difficult to navigate because it wasn't an ordinary mountain, but a rocky one. The rocks were uneven and slippery, making it even harder to walk.
The journey was long. Even though they walked cautiously, mishaps were unavoidable.
"Ouch."
Xiao Ping's foot slipped, and he fell. The rocks were very slippery, and he rolled down like a ball.
