The two women stood about ten meters apart and, across this distance, they exchanged a glance.
Purple Fairy, guilty, inevitably averted her eyes.
On the other hand, she was indignant.
She had never said she was Xiao Qiao. That was only what everyone had assumed. She had merely kept quiet.
Hence, she had no reason to feel guilty.
At this thought, she looked up and continued to glare fiercely at Qiao Lian.
Alas! To her dismay, Qiao Lian had already looked away and had her attention on CQ Team, that was coming from the other direction. It looked like Qiao Lian had totally disregarded the other woman.
Purple Fairy was furious and had to take a few deep breaths before she could calm down.
It was true, Qiao Lian had no regard for Purple Fairy. Instead, her gaze fell on the injured hands of The Godfather and The Deputy Godfather.
Because it was a burn injury, it was covered with a light gauze.
She was full of concern. “How is it?”
The Godfather and The Deputy Godfather exchanged a look and with disappointment written all over their faces said, “The injuries are not all that serious, but we just need to rest for a week or two.”
Qiao Lian nodded, feeling a little gloomy about the situation too.
It was such an important match, so being down by two people was a sad situation.
She pursed her lips and then heard a voice say, “How are your injuries doing? Are you able to play in tomorrow’s match?”
Qiao Lian turned around and saw that Purple Fairy had walked over to them, pretending to be worried.
The Godfather and The Deputy Godfather were infuriated by the sight of her. The Godfather was a hot-tempered person, so he immediately said, “We don’t need your fake kindness here!”
Purple Fairy quickly put on a hurt expression. “Don’t be like that. I didn’t do it on purpose…”
At this point, a small group of organizing staff came out and seeing what was happening then, they thought that CQ Team members were bullying Purple Fairy.
Hence, they said immediately, “What are you doing? You’re a man and you shouldn’t be talking to a sweet delicate lady like that.”
The Godfather was livid. “She—”
Before he could say anything, Purple Fairy hung her head and interrupted, “This was all my fault, please don’t blame them. His hand is injured, so it’s understandable that he’s in a bad mood.”
Her words only served to confirm what the organizing staff had thought.
See? There was even a good reason for his behavior. The Godfather was injured and therefore in a bad mood, and that was why he had taken it out on her.
One of the worker’s expression darkened. “In a gaming competition, friendship comes first, competition is secondary. As a man, surely you can’t be seeking revenge for every single grievance. That would be so petty.”
The Godfather was speechless with anger.
Seeing the situation unfold, Su Penghao took a step forward and began, “She—”
Before he could go on, Qiao Lian stopped him.
She gave the organizing staff a huge smile. “It’s just a small matter, let’s not take it out of proportion. Okay, okay, hurry up and get your pictures taken.”
As Su Penghao and the team members heard this, they looked at Qiao Lian strangely, wondering why she was being so afraid. However, now all the team members were obedient with her, so they didn’t say another word.
Smiling, the organizer took the team members through to the photoshoot.
After the photoshoot, the team left the building.
Su Penghao looked around for Qiao Lian and saw that she was walking towards them, carrying six packages of milk tea.
She ran clumsily, straight at Purple Fairy!
And then, without much effort, she aimed the hot milk tea at Purple Fairy and released the packages so that their content splashed right on her.
“Ahhhhh!” Purple Fairy shrieked sharply as the hot milk tea drenched her.
