Lin Haoyang hesitated for a moment, then spoke in a low voice, "What is your relationship with Qiao Rui?"
"Huh? I don't know you."
Bai Xiaowen was a little stunned for a moment. This change in his expression was naturally caught by the attentive Lin Haoyang.
Beside her, Fang Ziyi laughed softly and said, "You really don't know me? Ouyang Heng almost hit the wall because of you."
"Okay Ziyi," Lin Haoyang shook his head and said, "It seems that Bai Xiaowen really doesn't know Qiao Rui. Maybe Ouyang Heng made a mistake." Lin Haoyang believed in subtle expressions more than words.
"What are you talking about? I don't understand at all." Bai Xiaowen said.
"If you don't understand, we can't even tell you," Fang Ziyi laughed, not much depressed after the defeat, and extended her hand generously: "Congratulations, and thank you for your participation in the first game.
Show mercy."
Bai Xiaowen and Fang Ziyi shook hands gently, and he narrowed his eyes thoughtfully.
The two teams separated, and the Jinghai University team stayed on the stage. White lights flashed, and reporters from all walks of life took photos. The Jinghai University team, which was the first to advance to the CUAAA finals, became a hot spot for the media. The information of Bai Xiaowen and others will fill the entertainment section.
one of the contents.
Bai Xiaowen, who performed one through five in the first game and also performed extremely well in the second game, has received a lot of media attention as the biggest contributor to Jinghai University's promotion. After selectively answering a few questions, Bai Xiaowen was polite.
He said goodbye and left the interview opportunity to other teammates.
Bai Xiaowen himself left the stage. Compared with ordinary entertainment stars, one advantage of Awakened stars is their psychic power field. If they open the force field slightly, they can push ordinary people away and escape.
There is only one way to come, and there is no need for bodyguards from all walks of life to support you.
"I didn't expect that even Qingdao University would lose. The strength of your Jinghai University... really surprised me." A slightly familiar voice sounded.
Bai Xiaowen followed the sound and saw Qiao Qi, the young man who killed Matt, standing at the corner door of the auditorium.
Now it is no longer appropriate to say that Qiao Qi is a killer. Last time we met, he dyed his hair back to black. This time, he even cut off a large section of his long hair, leaving only a slightly dull look.
The middle-parted hairstyle can slightly cover the eyebrows and eyes, making her look very melancholy.
"You are also in the capital." Bai Xiaowen nodded.
"Yes, this is my territory," Qiao Qi folded her arms and said in a rude manner, "If you have any trouble, come to me and I will settle it for you."
"Thank you. Can you settle the troubles behind me first?"
Several reporters chased after him, insisting that Bai Xiaowen accept their exclusive interview.
Qiao Qi coughed and felt a little embarrassed: "These reporters are not from the capital and don't know me."
Bai Xiaowen also found it quite amusing to see Qiao Qi's showmanship only last for one second before collapsing.
Suddenly, a tall and strong man in black came over, crossed his arms, and stopped in front of the reporters. He did not attack the reporters, but those ordinary reporters could not squeeze through no matter what.
It was as if there was an invisible wall of air blocking their way.
"Awakened?" Bai Xiaowen was slightly startled. He noticed that the man in black's psychic field was at least at the level of a high-level awakened person.
The man in black glanced at Bai Xiaowen. He wore sunglasses and could not tell his expression, but the corners of his mouth twitched as a greeting. From his body, Bai Xiaowen could see some special temperament, a brand from the military.
Even if he wasn't wearing a military uniform, Bai Xiaowen could still sense the military aura from the opponent's straight waist and closed legs.
"Uncle Wang?" Qiao Qi called.
The man in black waited until several reporters retreated, then nodded to Qiao Qi and turned to Bai Xiaowen and said, "Follow me, someone wants to see you."
Bai Xiaowen quickly determined the identity of the man in black.
Awakened person, soldier, Uncle Wang in Qiao Qi's mouth...this identity is not difficult to guess.
"Who is it? Do you need to check whether you are carrying any dangerous goods?" Bai Xiaowen said half-jokingly, but he was actually testing.
The man in black spoke in a strict manner and remained silent.
However, she was afraid of her pig teammates, so Qiao Qi who was following behind shouted: "Uncle Wang, is my sister here too? Hey, I want to bring her with me today, but she refused, and in the end she didn't do it secretly
The earth is coming..."
Bai Xiaowen smiled secretly in his heart. He also knew the person who wanted to see him. Fortunately, he was not an elder of the Qiao family, so he felt much more relaxed mentally.
While they were talking, the three of them had already walked along the corner door to the corridor outside the auditorium.
"Qiao Qi." A soft voice sounded.
Qiao Qi, who was chattering endlessly, was like a duck whose neck was pinched. His head shrank and he suddenly stopped talking.
Bai Xiaowen was very surprised that he could treat Qiao Qi docilely. This young lady from the Qiao family was quite capable.
The next second, Bai Xiaowen crossed the threshold and saw the girl, the eldest daughter of the Qiao family.
"First time we meet, my name is Qiao Rui."
The girl's clothing, or the illusion shape she chose, was very simple, but that simple clothing became unique and alluring because of who she was.
The light blue short sleeves could hardly cover the peaks of the chest. The hem of the shirt was lightly knotted, slightly exposing a small piece of snow-white skin on the waist. The dark green jeans made the legs look longer and straighter.
Bai Xiaowen saw Qiao Rui's face from her legs up, and said habitually: "First meeting... huh?"
Bai Xiaowen was a little stunned.
Qiao Rui's delicate little face wore a gentle smile from the first meeting, but there were two tears rolling down quietly from the corners of her eyes.
Qiao Qi was stunned: "Sister, why are you crying?"
"Is there any?"
Qiao Rui felt a little dazed. She took out a handkerchief and gently wiped the corners of her eyes.
"Oh... maybe a grain of sand just got in. I'm sorry to make you laugh."
Qiao Rui smiled apologetically and then said: "Brother Xiaowen, I feel very friendly as soon as I see you. I am two years older than you, can I be your sister?"
Qiao Qi's eyes almost popped out.
The man in black on the side, Senior Awakener Uncle Wang, also showed a look of surprise, as if he saw a rooster laying eggs.
"elder sister?"
Bai Xiaowen was a little confused. The memories of the past quietly replayed in his mind.
A girl with a slender and straight figure, like a birch tree, quietly walked out of the dusty memory. She had long shawl hair like a waterfall and a warm smile that seemed to be able to heal all the pain and dispel all the haze.
.
"Xiaowen, you are the elder brother and you have to protect your sister. I am the eldest sister, so of course I have to protect you and the younger sister. I, Xiaowen and Xiaojun should never be separated."
"The answer to this riddle must be Niu, right? Of course the girl standing next to you is 'Niu'."
"Don't be discouraged, Xiaowen. You will become very smart one day. Even your sister can't compare with you. This is what dad said."
"Don't worry! My sister will definitely get our father and mother back. No one will ever say that we are children without parents."
…
Memories are flooding back and thoughts are lingering.
It only took 0.1 seconds for Bai Xiaowen to return to reality from his trance. He looked across at Qiao Rui, whose delicate and pretty face was slightly red with a hint of eagerness, and shook his head slowly but firmly.
"I'm sorry, Senior Sister Qiao Rui."
No one can take the place of sister. This is what Bai Xiaowen hides in his heart.
The look of hope on Qiao Rui's face disappeared, and there was a hint of disappointment that disappeared in an instant.
"It's okay, I was a little abrupt."
Qiao Rui smiled softly, and Bai Xiaowen felt a little dazed again, as if he saw the shadow of his sister Bai Xiaohua.
"Speaking of which, I want to thank Mr. Qiao... for what happened last time at Botu Guild, if he hadn't spoken out, maybe Zhao Yannian wouldn't have received the sanctions he deserved." Bai Xiaowen said.
Qiao Rui shook her head slightly: "...I have also heard about this matter. In fact, if it were other victims, grandpa would have given the same instructions. So, you're welcome..."
Qiao Qi on the side opened her mouth to speak, Qiao Rui's slender eyes glanced at him, and he suddenly fell silent.
Of course, this subtle expression could not escape Bai Xiaowen's eyes. The suspicion in his mind became even more intense, but Qiao Rui made it clear that he was not taking credit, so he could not continue to ask about this matter, after all, the high-ranking Duke Qiao was involved.
"Senior Qiao Rui, what do you want from me?" Bai Xiaowen saw that his teammates had all ended their interviews and were walking in this direction, so he got to the point.
Qiao Rui said softly: "I want to ask you to do me a favor."
"Senior, please tell me directly."
"The International Pharmacist Competition will start next Wednesday," Qiao Rui said quietly, "You have a spot to participate in the Young Pharmacist Exhibition Competition."
Bai Xiaowen nodded. This quota was recommended by the Qiao family.
"There is a pre-match training camp for this exhibition match. I have always wanted to go and see it. Can you go with me?"
"Senior Qiao Rui should be able to go in, right?" Bai Xiaowen asked, "Is the training camp closed and no one else can enter except for the pharmacists participating in the exhibition match?"
"That's not true. It's just that it will feel better if there is a pharmacist by your side." Qiao Rui laughed softly.
At this time, Yan Xiaoxin led the school team members to Bai Xiaowen.
"Xiaowen, what happened? Who is she?" Li Shuyi looked at Qiao Rui with some confusion, feeling that she looked familiar.
Bai Xiaowen glanced at Qiao Rui with a questioning look.
Qiao Rui was very generous and waved to everyone: "You are Xiaowen's alumni, right? Congratulations on playing a wonderful game. My name is Qiao Rui, a member of the YSU team. Please give me your advice."
Xiang Hui and others were a little surprised. Qiao Rui was their formidable enemy, and her threat level was no less than that of Ouyang Heng's hero class.
They had already seen Qiao Rui's photos, but there were some differences between the photos and the real person. At first, they just thought it looked familiar, but they never thought about it that way.
Bai Xiaowen then briefly talked about the International Pharmacist Competition and finally said:
"Senior Sister Qiao Rui invited me to visit the training location...Teacher Yan, if there are no important arrangements for the school team in the future, I hope to take a leave."
"Well, I have a rest today, and I plan to go to Yanda University tomorrow..." Yan Xiaoxin stopped here. She will go to Yanda University tomorrow, of course, to watch the confrontation between Yanda University and Yunnan University. As a competitor, she must carefully study the latest information of her opponent.
But opposite was Yan University's ace assistant, and she felt a little embarrassed.
Qiao Rui smiled slightly: "Actually, there is no need. Yunnan University cannot force out the strength of the Yan University team... If you need it, I can send you the latest information about the school team."
Several people from Jinghai University looked at each other.
Chen Guowei looked at Bai Xiaowen with admiration and whispered to Xiang Hui: "What is awesome? Lao Bai is awesome. He hooked up with his ace support just after we met. I think the final is safe, Miss Qiao."
If you let the water go casually, why don’t you attack Yan Da casually?”
"Shut up." Xiang Hui kicked Chen Guowei's ass.
Qiao Rui glanced at Chen Guowei and said with a smile: "Even if it's Disciple Xiaowen's team, I will never give in. Don't you think so, Senior Ouyang?"
The perception of those with mental expertise is indeed extraordinary.
Two figures slowly walked out from behind the corner door.
Bai Xiaowen also sensed two auras of awakened beings hidden near the corner door, but he was not familiar with these two auras and didn't think much about them. Looking at the two people, one of them, a tall and strong young man, took off his big sunglasses, wasn't he?
Have you seen Ouyang Heng in photos and videos?
"I... was just passing by." Ouyang Heng explained.
Wu Chaojie, a square boy, said in disbelief: "Sister-in-law, you are not really going to surrender to the enemy, are you?"
Qiao Rui's slender eyes stared at Wu Chaojie, and the square, muscular man shrank his head.
Ouyang Heng felt a little depressed.
"Bai Xiaowen, have you met Qiao Rui before?" Ouyang Heng's voice was a little deep.
Bai Xiaowen frowned slightly, and suddenly smiled bitterly and said, "I don't know either."
"You are so brave, you dare to trick the boss!" Wu Chaojie shouted.
Bai Xiaowen ignored Wu Chaojie and said to the gloomy Ouyang Heng: "If you asked me this question before, I can clearly tell you that I don't know you. But now... I really don't know if I know Senior Qiao Rui."
Already."
"You still dare to quibble. Last time on the player battle platform, it was Senior Qiao Rui who logged in to your character account..." Wu Chaojie shouted.
"Super hero."
"Wu Chaojie!"
Ouyang Heng and Qiao Rui shouted to stop Wu Chaojie almost in unison, but Ouyang Heng's tone was lower, while Qiao Rui looked a little embarrassed.
Ouyang Heng glanced at Qiao Rui, who was shy and timid, and felt uncomfortable.
"Bai Xiaowen, we'll see you on the field." Ouyang Heng said the next sentence, turned around and left.
"Boss, is it okay to let Qiao Rui stay here?" Wu Chaojie chased after him and whispered. But even if he lowered his voice, people with higher mental strength could still hear him.
Ouyang Heng paused for a moment, turned to look at Qiao Rui, then turned around again and left.
"Classmate Xiaowen, the school team will stay at the Jinyue Hotel before the finals. This is your room key... Remember to report to the hotel after finishing the work. Keep in touch."
After witnessing this strange scene throughout the whole process, Yan Xiaoxin felt that it would be better to retreat temporarily.
