Chapter 718 - 718 718 Play a Big Game
718: Chapter 718: Play a Big Game 718: Chapter 718: Play a Big Game “Wait a minute, you’re the only one who has a hostage, and that doesn’t seem fair to me.” A voice filled with malice, a pair of sharp eyes, his arrival, and the hostage in his hands, Qian Ying, all together made Qian Feng’s momentum plummet.
It was the big boss who arrived, Hai, Leng Le, they just happened to catch Qian Ying while she was casting a spell.
They captured her and found out what was happening here through interrogation, so the big boss decided to join the fun.
Qian Feng was angry, “This is a matter between them and me, you shouldn’t interfere.”
“Sorry, I’m protecting Gu Fan.
If you don’t want anything to happen to your good sister, release Gu Fan and Su Hui immediately.” The big boss wasn’t bluffing, if he used a bit of strength, he could snap Qian Ying’s neck.
Qian Ying was scared, “Elder sister, save me, I don’t want to die.”
Hearing Qian Ying’s plea for help, Qian Feng did not budge, “I won’t abandon any sister from Shennv Xuanhui.
But I don’t do losing business either.
One hostage can only be exchanged for another.
If you disagree, we can call it off there.
I will avenge Qian Ying later.”
“You really are…” The big boss didn’t expect Qian Feng to be this adamant.
He was somewhat on the back foot now.
Lin Xi was also in a difficult position.
Choosing between Gu Fan, her boyfriend, and Su Hui, a person worth respecting, was incredibly hard.
“Made up your mind yet?
I am not known for my patience.” Qian Feng huffed coldly, her resolute gaze pushing for an answer.
Gu Fan, however, said, “Listen to me, pick Sister Su.
I’ll figure out another way.”
“What?” Lin Xi, the big boss, and Leng Le knew Gu Fan’s character well.
They were certain he would opt for Su Hui’s safety.
But Qian Feng didn’t expect Gu Fan’s righteous heartedness.
She looked at him differently.
Su Hui wanted to say something but was stopped by Gu Fan, “Sister Su, stop arguing with me.
We all came here on this adventure together.
It’s my responsibility to ensure everyone’s safety.
Trust me, I really do have a plan.”
After hearing this, Qian Feng couldn’t help but scoff, “Very well, I really want to see what good ideas you have when you’re at your wit’s end.”
Qian Feng agreed to exchange Su Hui for Qian Ying, and now, with Gu Fan still in her grasp, she suggested trading him for the chip.
Without giving it a second thought, Lin Xi agreed and brought out the chip.
As for the three scientists, Lin Xi figured they weren’t too relevant to herself.
There were no feelings attached, so if they had to be sold out, so be it.
However, Gu Fan disagreed, “Lin Xi, absolutely not!
I said I have a way to survive.”
“But!” Lin Xi was incredibly worried.
Given Qian Feng’s strong hold, even the big boss couldn’t find a chance to save anyone.
How could Gu Fan possibly manage to escape?
Qian Feng was not pleased.
She clasped her hand around Gu Fan’s neck, “You’ve been on my last nerve for a while.
If you don’t shut up, don’t blame me for not being polite.”
“Sorry, since fate chose me, I won’t possibly die in your hands.” Gu Fan spoke confidently, but his heart was pounding.
He really didn’t know if his plan would fail this time.
Su Hui had seen Gu Fan turn dangerous situations into lucky escapes several times.
She also trusted that he would be okay, but one could never be too sure.
“Is that so?
What if the Destiny Stone has fated you to die at my hands?” Qian Feng gave a cold laugh, appearing ready to make her move.
Gu Fan could clearly feel Qian Feng’s fingers tightening around his neck.
He was finding it harder and harder to breathe.
Just then, the secret base started to tilt suddenly.
Unprepared for this, everyone lost their balance and began to tumble over.
Clumsily, Qian Xue tried to brace herself against the wall, but this interrupted her spell-casting.
Gu Fan was free to move again.
He immediately pried Qian Feng’s arm away and attempted to subdue her.
“Dream on!” Qian Feng’s eyes flashed icily, scaring Gu Fan into immediately letting go of her.
At that moment, Qian Xue finally steadied herself and attempted to cast her spell again, only for Gu Fan to pin her head against the wall.
Quick as a flash, Su Hui rushed over to knock out Qian Xue after reeling herself in.
Seeing that things had gone awry, Qian Feng was about to retaliate, but before she could act, Lin Xi was suddenly in the air, crashing straight into her.
Lin Xi forced Qian Feng away from the scene, buying the rest time to escape.
At this point, only Qian Ying and Ning Qi were able to fight back.
However, under the encirclement of the big boss, Gu Fan, Su Hui, Hai, Leng Le, and Qiao Ya, Qian Ying promptly surrendered and said, “Gu Fan, please take care of us for the sake of second elder sister.”
“You have the nerve to ask for fair treatment as prisoners.” Su Hui shook her head in a merciless manner.
Gu Fan was worried about Lin Xi.
She had single-handedly tackled Qian Feng, and he had no idea where she had ended up.
Naturally, Gu Fan couldn’t leave Lin Xi behind.
He went to check on her.
At this point, the others had waited a while for Lin Xi and Gu Fan to regroup with them.
Everyone ran over, surprised at what they found.
Ouyang Jin wanted to ask what had happened, but the secret base tilted again, throwing everyone off balance.
They all fell to one side, some even collapsing in a heap on top of each other.
Qian Ying tried to take advantage of the situation to control a few people, but Su Hui warned coldly, “I advise you to behave yourself, otherwise, don’t blame us for not being polite.”
“I didn’t, I’m being good.” Afraid, Qian Ying hurriedly looked like a well-behaved prisoner.
Lu Yi rubbed his buttocks and complained, “My god, what’s wrong with this place?
Is it about to collapse?”
“That’s right, you’re spot on!” The woman in red popped out, scaring everyone once again.
As the woman in red was about to continue, she noticed the group’s excitement.
Everyone was beating up Lu Yi while cursing, “We told you to be a doomsayer, we told you!”
“Big Bro, Big Sis, I’m sorry.
Isn’t it enough that I was wrong?” Lu Yi, clutching his head, took the beating obediently, but he really felt like crying.
How come all the good things he predicted never happened, yet all the bad ones did?
Now even he thought he was a jinx.
The big boss also wanted to join in, but refrained for fear of accidentally disabling Lu Yi.
After giving Lu Yi a kick, Su Hui still wasn’t appeased.
She turned around and asked, “Tell me, what’s happening to this place.”
The woman in red responded with a grin, “Because, I think, you lot are just too hard to deal with.
I decided to have a bigger gamble.
Let’s destroy this place and bury all of you here.
Since you’re here, you shouldn’t leave.”
