Li Qiao furrowed her brows, glaring at his slightly smug expression, "Who did you find?"
"It’s none of your business, I didn’t plan to kill him, but since I got shot, I have to earn some interest."
What the hell is brotherhood!
What does it matter if we were willing to die together?
Xiao Yehui should have thought about this day when he first made his move against me.
At that moment, Li Qiao faintly felt that something was off, she fell silent for a few seconds, temporarily suppressing the doubts in her heart, "Do you want to get out?"
Shen Qingye was slightly surprised, then chuckled in a deflated way, "I might not be able to get out, my dad has arranged quite a few people around the villa, and he has cut off all my retreats."
This time, his post on the black market to snipe Xiao Yehui had completely enraged his old man.
Li Qiao looked at his gloomy demeanor and shrugged, "Aren’t I your way out?"
Shen Qingye’s heart warmed, and he suddenly looked up, his eyes rolling with waves.
But, in just a moment, he shook his head and refused, "Forget it, I’m quite comfortable as I am now, I’ll find a way after he lets his guard down."
If he rushed out now, he would definitely startle the snake.
Seeing that he was adamant, Li Qiao didn’t insist, instead, she opened her palm, "Give me your phone."
Shen Qingye didn’t understand but obediently took out his phone from his pajamas and handed it to her.
"Your phone is being monitored, did you know that?" Li Qiao asked in a low voice as she fiddled with the phone.
Shen Qingye nodded honestly, "I know, that’s why I installed anti-surveillance software, they can’t trace my call history."
Li Qiao’s fingers paused, her eyebrows raised slightly in surprise, "Who gave you the software?"
"I don’t know. A couple of days ago, a local number sent me a text, there was nothing written, just a URL, I saw it half an hour later, tried to call back, but the number had already been disconnected."
As Shen Qingye spoke, he opened a bottle of mineral water and took a gulp, then continued, "Later I logged onto the URL, and inside was a package for anti-surveillance software, what a coincidence."
More than just a coincidence.
Li Qiao bowed her head to look at Shen Qingye’s phone, a certain idea almost escaping her.
As evening approached, Li Qiao left the house.
Shen Qingye stood in the yard, reluctant to say goodbye to her, "Be careful on your way."
Li Qiao stood outside the gate, looking back at him from a distance, "Let me know whenever you want to leave."
Shen Qingye felt reluctant inside, but he didn’t want to bother her.
Which is why he didn’t tell Li Qiao that a well-known Mercenary Group on the international scene had already taken up the job he had posted.
In the evening, Shang Yu arrived in Aida State as promised.
Cheng Mo and Liuyun went to the airport, while Li Qiao sat in a suite listening to Luoyu’s report.
"Miss Li, that’s roughly what happened; they’re not accepting the compensation of eight hundred million."
Li Qiao held Qianmu Group’s compensation proposal in her hand, flipped through two pages, and curled her lips sarcastically, "Fifty million?"
Luoyu tugged at the corner of her mouth in response, "Yes, that’s the amount they’re offering."
This was thirty million less than their initial compensation calculation.
Li Qiao nonchalantly tossed aside the proposal, "Didn’t the negotiation letter state that the compensation amount was open to negotiation, are they having regrets now?"
Luoyu’s nostrils flared, her eyes brimming with a murderous intent, "The negotiation letter was just a joke, they are intentionally making things difficult for us."
"Is that so?" Li Qiao replied indifferently, her gaze then shifting to the wooden box on the table; she did not pursue the topic further, "Where’s the toolbox?"
Luoyu was startled, and quickly replied, "It was prepared last night, do you need it now?"
"Yes, he’ll be here soon, bring it over."
