Early the next morning, when Qiao Keai woke up, she found herself lying comfortably on the bed in the study room, carefully covered with a thick quilt.

In a trance, she remembered last night when she was half asleep and half awake, as if someone was hugging her.

Her eyes lit up suddenly, Qin Xiao woke up?

She quickly got up and got out of bed, but she searched around but could not find Qin Xiao.

She couldn't help but wonder, where did he go?
She was planning to go to the bungalow to borrow a mobile phone to make a call, but Uncle Lin came to Bieyuan first.

Holding a brand new mobile phone in his hand, seeing that Qiao Keai woke up, he smiled and said, "Miss Qiao, you are awake."

Qiao Keai nodded, and said worriedly: "Where is Qin Xiao? He hasn't recovered from his injury, why did he go out?"

Uncle Lin quickly comforted her and said, "Miss Qiao, don't worry, the husband said that he is already much better, and there is an urgent matter in the company that needs to be dealt with by him."

He paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "This is the new mobile phone he ordered to prepare for you, and the SIM card has been replenished for you."

Qiao Keai took the phone and thanked her with a smile.

As soon as Uncle Lin left, she quickly used her new mobile phone to call Qin Xiao.

"Are you awake?" Qin Xiao's familiar voice sounded from the other end of the phone, but the tone still sounded weak.

She pouted her lips with some dissatisfaction, and complained in a low voice: "Is it really that busy? I'm dying!"

Qin Xiao pursed his lips and said half-jokingly: "It's not that busy, it's just..."

He purposely spoke halfway, then paused.

"Just what?" Qiao Keai asked subconsciously.

"It's just that you are by my side, which is a great test for my self-control." He sighed helplessly, and asked quietly, "Do you want me to die?"

Qiao Keai blushed suddenly, remembering the night she was kidnapped.

If it wasn't for getting rid of the medicine on her body, how could he be hurt so badly!

Not wanting to discuss such a blushing topic with him anymore, she quickly changed the subject, "I don't want to talk to you, has the person who kidnapped me confessed?"

She heard from Uncle Lin that the two burly men who kidnapped her had been handed over to the police, so she wondered if there was anything out of the interrogation.

Although she was stunned at the time, she vaguely heard the conversation between the two people afterwards, and they seemed to be just executors.

When Qin Xiao heard this, his eyes darkened slightly.

He pondered for a moment, then explained: "Tell me, originally they just wanted to steal sex, but later they found out that you are a female star, so they came up with the idea of ​​kidnapping and extorting."

He decided not to tell her the truth for now, lest she worry.

Qiao Keai frowned, and said suspiciously: "Are you sure? Why do I feel that there seems to be a mastermind behind them?"

Qin Xiao tightened his grip and subconsciously asked, "What did you hear?"

Qiao Keai denied: "No, I was in a daze at the time and didn't hear clearly, but if they want to blackmail, why..."

Hearing that she didn't know the inside story, Qin Xiao interrupted her guess before she finished speaking.

He said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, I will not let the person who caused you go unpunished. If there is a mastermind behind it, I will not let him go."

Qiao Keai thought about the matter of the Qin family and the Lu family, and his injury was not healed, fearing that he would be too tired, so she hurriedly said: "Forget it, maybe I was thinking too much, you take care of your injury, don't bother gone."

Seeing that she finally stopped pestering her, Qin Xiao smiled and said, "Okay."

"Then when will you come back?" She asked with a smile, "I'll cook something delicious for you."

"Tonight." He replied softly.

"Ok, I will wait for you."

After hanging up the phone, Qin Xiao looked at the information in his hand, his expression darkened.

After Lin Ao's investigation, for this kidnapping, he actually locked on a target - Chen Yuan.

At the beginning, he was arrested on suspicion of absconding with money and sentenced to ten years in prison, but he did not expect that his sentence would be reduced and he would come out early due to his good performance in prison.

What happened back then, Chen Yuan held a grudge. In order to get revenge on him and Xiao Wan, he probably took Qiao Keyai as Shen Xing Wan and kidnapped her.

It's just a Chen Yuan, which is easy to deal with, but now according to Cao Yi's investigation, it seems that Chen Yuan has some kind of collusion with Montenegro, and things have become more difficult.

Especially since he is in the open and the enemy is in the dark, if he wants to find Chen Yuan, he still has to rely more on Cao Yi's power.

If Chen Yuan doesn't succeed once, I'm afraid he won't let it go. Maybe he will find another chance to attack Qiao Keai. He has to ask Cao Yi to arrange some reliable bodyguards for Keai.

He was about to call Cao Yi when the intercom on his desk rang, and he subconsciously picked it up.

"Chairman, Ms. Lu Jingxi, the executive director of the Lu Group, is here to visit. Do you want to meet?"

Qin Xiao frowned slightly, and said in a deep voice, "Let her come up."

Soon, Lu Jingxi walked into his office, Qin Xiao glanced at her, and said calmly, "Sit down."

Lu Jingxi looked indifferent, and said with a sneer, "No need, you know why I'm here."

A chill flashed across Qin Xiao's face, he raised his cold eyes to look at her, and said coldly, "Since Lu Xiangrui has the guts to murder the old lady, she should be punished."

A flash of anger flashed in Lu Jingxi's eyes, "Qin Xiao, do you have to be so unfeeling? She was just afraid that the old lady would turn to Qiao Keyai, that's why she was obsessed. She didn't want the old lady..."

Before she could finish her sentence, Qin Xiao coldly interrupted her: "You can be forgiven for being obsessed with a ghost? The old lady almost died because of this, and she hasn't woken up yet. This is an indisputable fact!"

He paused, and said in a cold voice: "I just made her unable to work as a chef and go to jail for a few years, which is already very gracious!"

He stared coldly into Lu Jingxi's eyes, "You should be thankful that the old lady is not in danger of her life, otherwise her punishment would not be so light!"

Lu Jingxi met his cold gaze and felt guilty for a moment.

She always felt that Qin Xiao was speaking for her.

In order to protect her, Lu Xiangrui took the initiative to take the matter of drugging the old lady on herself.

She originally thought that Qin Xiao might let Lu Xiangrui go because of the guilt towards her for regretting the marriage in public, but now it seems that she overestimated herself.

Thinking of the humiliation on the day of the engagement, tears flashed faintly in her eyes. She looked at Qin Xiao with hatred, and asked coldly, "Does it have to be like this between you and me?"

Qin Xiao lowered his eyes and said lightly: "Jing He is my friend, and I have always regarded you as my sister. If you are willing to let go of your obsession, this relationship will not change!"

"Okay!" Lu Jingxi raised her head, tried her best to suppress the tears that were about to burst into her eyes, and said in a deep voice, "As long as you are willing to let Xiangrui go, I will let go of my obsession!"

"Impossible!" Qin Xiao refused coldly, his eyes showing no sign of compromise, "Jing Xi, I'm sorry for regretting the marriage in public, but don't think that you can challenge my bottom line because of this!"

Lu Jingxi gritted her teeth, and said in annoyed voice: "Qin Xiao, you are so unfeeling, are you sure that my love for you is so deep that I won't be your enemy?"
