"Xiao Yue isn’t here, so I’ll be leaving," Zhou Xiaoqi had come here just to see Xiao Yue. Jason would wake up soon, and if he discovered she was gone, he would surely become suspicious, and then there would be a thunderous rage. Although she had a bracelet on her wrist, she felt a fear of Jason that seemed to come from the depths of her soul. It just took one look from him to make her tremble uncontrollably.
"He won’t wake up that quickly," Song Yan Ning placed the fruit tray on the table.
"You know?" Zhou Xiaoqi looked at Song Yan Ning in surprise. Had she heard wrong?
"Are you afraid of him because he hits you, or is it for some other reason?" Song Yan Ning picked up a slice of apple and placed it in her mouth, speaking slowly.
"You really know? How could you know?" Zhou Xiaoqi looked at Song Yan Ning in disbelief. She hadn’t told Xiao Yue, so how could this child know?
"I saw the injury on your arm yesterday," Song Yan Ning did indeed notice the marks on Zhou Xiaoqi’s wrist yesterday, but at the time, she thought Zhou Xiaoqi had bumped into something and didn’t think much of it.
"Are you really just a child?" Zhou Xiaoqi looked at Song Yan Ning incredulously. Even adults didn’t have such sharp observational skills.
"I just like reading some detective novels, it’s actually a wild guess, but now I know I guessed it right," Song Yan Ning smiled innocently.
Zhou Xiaoqi smiled. So she had guessed it, no wonder. After all, she was just a child, how could she really know.
"Aunt Zhou!" Qin Yushen walked out of the room. He had just been investigating the forces behind Jason, and the results he found were truly surprising. Jason had a huge organization behind him, and that organization dabbled in anything profitable, to say they were utterly evil.
"Hello!" Zhou Xiaoqi smiled at Qin Yushen. Even though she had met them yesterday, seeing these two children again still dazzled her with their appearance. As these kids grew up, their looks would definitely drive countless young men and women crazy.
Qin Yushen sat down next to Song Yan Ning, "Did Aunt Zhou come to see my mom for something?"
"No, I just came to see her and catch up," Zhou Xiaoqi naturally wouldn’t tell the two children about her own matters. It would be harmful to them.
"Have you ever thought about leaving him?" Song Yan Ning asked.
Zhou Xiaoqi gave a bitter smile, nodded, and stood up, "I should go now. Please tell Xiao Yue that I left the hotel this morning." She of course wanted to leave Jason, but she couldn’t escape, nor did she dare to.
"Mhm." Song Yan Ning and Qin Yushen nodded.
When Liu Shanyue left the room, Song Yan Ning turned her head to Qin Yushen, "What did you find?"
"That Jason is a small leader of the Black Group, which is a very mysterious and powerful organization. They are involved in everything including weapons, viruses, trafficking, etc., and every year, many people die at the hands of the Black Group," Qin Yushen explained in detail what he had found to Song Yan Ning.
The more Song Yan Ning listened, the tighter her brows furrowed, "Truly heinous and crazy." What the Black Group had done sent chills through her body.
Qin Yushen nodded, "I just located the Y country branch of the Black Group. But this Black Group is really not simple; even their branch is guarded by many superpower users."
Song Yan Ning thought for a moment, "Why don’t we do this?" She shared her plan with Qin Yushen.
"It’s too risky." Qin Yushen knew that Song Yan Ning was capable of escaping, but he still felt uneasy.
"There won’t be any problems, I made a Golden Core breakthrough last night," Song Yan Ning thought of her newly elevated strength and couldn’t help feeling elated. She felt full of power and had nowhere to test it, the Black Group was the perfect opportunity to test her strength, and she also wanted to test the strength of those superpower users.
Qin Yushen looked down at Song Yan Ning and tapped her pert nose with his long finger, "But I’m still not at ease." He had known about Yan Ning’s Golden Core breakthrough when it happened, but no matter how strong her abilities were, he couldn’t help worrying as long as she wanted to take risks.
"I know my limits." Song Yan Ning’s heartbeat uncontrollably quickened when she looked into Qin Yushen’s profound eyes that seemed to draw people in. This enchanting being didn’t miss a single chance to flirt with her.
Feeling Song Yan Ning’s accelerated heartbeat, Qin Yushen’s lips curved into an enticing smile, "I really like it when you get a fast heartbeat for me."
"Nonsense, as if my heart would race for you," Song Yan Ning glared at Qin Yushen playfully, pushing his dangerously handsome face away with her hand.
"Hahaha..." Qin Yushen couldn’t help but burst into laughter. Seeing Yan Ning’s reaction made him very happy. Unfortunately, for now, all he could do was tease without taking any further steps.
Song Yan Ning rolled her eyes at Qin Yushen and stood up to walk outside.
"Where are you going?" Qin Yushen quickly stopped laughing and stepped forward to follow.
"To Lundao Street," Song Yan Ning headed towards the elevator.
Qin Yushen shook his head with a smile, stepped forward, and took Song Yan Ning’s hand. Since she had decided, even if he was uneasy, he could only follow her. If anyone dared to harm a single hair on Yan Ning’s head, he would make them pay a terrible price.
Zhou Xiaoqi returned to her room and saw that Jason was still asleep; she breathed a sigh of relief. All the way there she had been thinking about Song Yan Ning’s words. Initially, she thought Yan Ning had guessed because she read too many detective novels, but now she was unsure because she had just remembered, Yan Ning’s first sentence was that he wouldn’t wake up so quickly, and indeed, Jason hadn’t woken up yet. She wondered if she had heard wrong, or if Song Yan Ning really knew something.
At that moment, the Jason on the bed moved, and Zhou Xiaoqi knew he was waking up. She stood still, not daring to make a move. She knew whether Jason remembered being stunned yesterday when he woke up.
Jason opened his eyes and recalled yesterday’s events, looking towards Zhou Xiaoqi, "What happened last night? Why was I thrown off?" If the room wasn’t clean, then it wouldn’t have been problem-free the previous days. To say that this had to do with Zhou Xiaoqi, unless she knew a superpower user, only a superpower user could have such abilities.
"I don’t know." Feeling Jason’s gaze sweeping over her, Zhou Xiaoqi was even more frightened. The thing she feared most now was Jason seeing the bracelet on her hand. If he discovered it, he would definitely take it away.
"What do you have in your hand?" Jason noticed Zhou Xiaoqi had been keeping her hand behind her back.
