Chapter 695 - 683
Qiao Qiqi handed the Heavenly Stone to her brother and looked at the person opposite. The Ghost faced Man was wrapped up tightly, making it impossible to see his appearance, but Qiao Qiqi felt this person seemed somewhat familiar.
Who on earth is he?
"Also, the money for the first auction item you bid on will be fully refunded, as my compensation for the fright Miss Qiao experienced," the Ghost faced Man spoke again.
"That’s not necessary. Since I’ve gotten what I deserve, I’ll be taking my leave."
Qiao Qiqi wasn’t interested in causing a scene. Since the other party was being sincere, she decided to let it go.
After all, their purpose for coming here was the Heavenly Stone, not to make enemies.
She really didn’t want any additional complications.
"Brother, Gu Shili, let’s go." Qiao Qiqi now just wanted to leave quickly. It was still uncertain whether the person in front of her was a friend or foe, and who knew what his true intentions were.
Gu Lizhe had already brought Yang Xiaoqing and Yao Yao out and had gotten them onto the helicopter.
Yang Xiaoqing looked at the scene outside, and not only was she not afraid, but she was also quite excited, just like in a movie. It was so cool!
Yao Yao, on the other hand, was clinging onto Yang Xiaoqing, with a terrified look on her face, not daring to look outside.
Yang Xiaoqing already knew that Yao Yao’s mind wasn’t like a normal person’s, that she was just like a child, so her earlier hostility towards her disappeared, and she continued to fulfill her duty to protect her.
The Ghost faced Man saw she was leaving, but said nothing, only watching Qiao Qiqi board the helicopter. After she was seated, Qiao Qiqi turned to look at the Ghost faced Man. He still stood there until the helicopter took off before turning away.
Gu Shili noticed she seemed deep in thought and asked, "Are you still thinking about that person just now?"
"It feels like I’ve seen him before."
"He’s covered so tightly, probably disfigured, you might have nightmares if you saw him! You saying you’ve seen him must be a delusion."
Gu Shili felt a bit sour in his heart because, after all, who wouldn’t be annoyed when one’s own girlfriend was thinking about another man in front of them?
Qiao Qiqi, "..."
Upon returning, Gu Shili wanted to take Qiao Qiqi home to spend more time with her, since they’d been spending a lot of time apart recently, and he was about to leave for about half a month.
Rong Yuan had calmed down completely by this time and blocked the young man who was about to take his sister away. "Gu Shili, if you want to be with my sister, you need my approval!"
"Brother Rong, I truly like Qiqi, rest assured, I will treat her well in the future! If I dare to treat her badly, you can kill me." Gu Shili immediately declared his loyalty.
"Brother, it’s my choice to be with Gu Shili, please respect my decision on this matter, and don’t make things difficult for Gu Shili, and don’t look at him with disdain." Qiao Qiqi quickly stepped forward upon seeing the situation. She didn’t want anyone to make things difficult for Gu Shili, not even her own brother.
Rong Yuan felt a pang of frustration in his chest, feeling like before anything had even happened, his sister was already wholeheartedly leaning towards this punk.
Gu Shili was extremely moved by his wife’s words. Every time someone criticized him, she was always the first to stand up for him, and she did so unconditionally.
"But right now, I have an important task to do, and I can’t accompany you. You go home first, and when you return, I’ll be with you." Qiao Qiqi was currently preoccupied with Fourth Brother’s health, and also the function of the Heavenly Stone, which was mentioned in the old man’s book but had yet to be truly verified.
