The Lady is Beautiful and Sassy

Chapter 819 - 789

"I knew it. Why else would you appear in such a dangerous place in the dead of night if not to look for your missing boyfriend?" Feng Xiling asked with a smile.

Qiao Qiqi stared at the injured, fragile man. His face was very pale, "Do you know where my boyfriend is?"

"The word boyfriend doesn’t sound so nice, you know. Doctor Qiao, why not be my girlfriend instead? What’s so good about Gu Shili? He’s weak and there’s nothing worth holding on to." Feng Xiling said with a smile.

"So you do know where Gu Shili is." Qiao Qiqi raised her eyebrows, looking at the man with certainty.

"...You’re smarter than I expected." Feng Xiling smiled.

"I wouldn’t dare. You still managed to fool me into curing your illness."

"You treated me simply because of your benevolence. I’m a patient, and of course, you wouldn’t watch a patient die in front of you." Feng Xiling was well aware that Qiao Qiqi had a soft and kind heart, but this was only towards her own people.

"Since you know, you should be aware that if I can save you, I can also take your life... Where is Gu Shili?" Qiao Qiqi’s voice had turned cold.

"..." This time, Feng Xiling was truly startled because he could sense the hostility from the young woman.

Yet, he really wanted to be her friend.

"No one knows where he is, only I do. But... why should I tell you?" Feng Xiling suddenly smiled gently and lowered his long eyelashes, a hint of desolation in his eyes.

"What are your conditions?" Qiao Qiqi also knew there’s no such thing as a free lunch. Since he was looking for her, he must be seeking something.

"Conditions..." Feng Xiling lifted his eyelids to look at the young woman in front of him, pondered for a moment, and said, "Spend a week with me, and after that, I’ll tell you Gu Shili’s whereabouts and those of the others."

"Then you have to ensure his and their safety." Qiao Qiqi considered it and said.

"Of course, since I’ve promised you, I won’t go back on my word."

"You mean Gu Shili is safe now?"

"As long as nothing unexpected happens to me, he is safe. If something happens to me, then it’s uncertain."

"...Oh, fine, let’s go back to the hotel." Qiao Qiqi thought about it. At the moment, she couldn’t think of a better way to find him. She said she would check his routes, but what could she find?

She wasn’t omnipotent.

Especially in this unfamiliar place, finding a missing person is easier said than done.

Actually, she also remembered Gu Lizhe. Gu Lizhe might have some connections here, but she truly had nothing.

Feng Xiling, "..."

We agreed you would accompany me for a week?

Weren’t you supposed to follow me?

Thinking of this, he didn’t say much more and followed Qiao Qiqi out of the temporary hotel they were staying at.

When they returned to the hotel, it was already late in the night. As soon as Qiao Qiqi entered the room, Jiang Meng rushed over and anxiously asked, "Qiqi, where have you been?"

"Oh, I went out for a bit to take care of something." Qiao Qiqi walked in, and Feng Xiling followed her in.

The man glanced around the room, his eyes showing a hint of disdain.

Jiang Meng, "..."

Where did Qiao Qiqi find such an extraordinarily handsome man!!

Jiang Meng quickly ran to Qiao Qiqi’s side and whispered, "Who is this person?"
