Qiu Lingxue noticed his gaze, raised her brows slightly, and said with a raised lip: "Although I am very powerful, please don't fall in love with me!"
Gu Yichen: "..."
Let me say it again, he likes gentle and intellectual people, and he will definitely not be the idiot type like Qiu Lingxue.
Immediately, a group of them got off the plane and immediately saw Clay, the butler sent by Lady Margaret to receive them.
The other person was in his thirties, wearing a suit and leather shoes, his hair was meticulously combed, and his manners were very elegant.
Clay said in fluent Chinese: "Welcome to country A. Madam has already prepared a place for you to stay. Please come with me."
Qiao Xixi nodded, "Okay, thank you for your hard work."
"It's okay Miss Qiao, this is what we should do."
Clay took them into a stretched Lincoln and left the airport.
The location where they are now is City M in Country A, and the exotic scenery comes into view through the car window.
There are skyscrapers, bridges across the water, and singers holding guitars wandering on the road. The hazy neon light and shadow cover the entire city and outline the entire city.
When they were in the car, Clay was very considerate and lowered the baffle, leaving them time to talk alone.
Qiao Xixi was stunned for a moment, a white light flashed in his mind, and he remembered something very important.
She immediately lowered her voice and said softly: "By the way, Gu Yichen, I have something to tell you. I hope you don't mind."
Gu Yichen looked at her solemn expression and felt puzzled.
"Sister-in-law, tell me."
Qiao Xixi said: "Currently in country A, you cannot admit to others that you and Ling Xue are a couple."
Hearing this, Gu Yichen's eyes lit up with a gleam of surprise.
The two of them were not a couple to begin with. Doesn’t this mean they can resume their previous relationship?!
Gu Yichen was too late to be happy, so how could he refuse.
But in order to maintain his character, Gu Yichen still pretended to be unhappy and asked later: "Why?"
Qiao Xixi explained what happened before, "Because we wanted to know the identity of the person who kidnapped Ruirui, we told Mrs. Margaret that Ling Xue liked that man and asked her to help us pay more attention."
When Gu Yichen heard this, although he knew it was all false, he didn't know why. Hearing that Qiu Lingxue liked someone else made him feel a little uncomfortable.
He smiled and said: "So that's it. Don't worry, sister-in-law. I'm not the kind of person who can't understand the overall situation and get jealous. In the coming days, I won't expose the relationship between me and Ling Xue."
Qiao Xixi glanced at him gratefully, "Then I'll be wronging you and Ling Xue."
Gu Yichen didn't take it seriously at all and waved his hand, "As long as we can rescue Ruirui, it doesn't matter."
Qiu Lingxue also nodded, "Ruirui's safety is the most important right now!"
Qiao Xixi couldn't help but feel moved when she saw that they were all thinking about her daughter.
The vehicle continued to drive, and fifteen minutes later...
They arrived at their destination.
This is a private estate under the name of Lady Margaret. It is very luxurious, with huge fountains, endless lawns, a golf course and European-style architectural design.
Margaret liked Qiao Xixi and Qiu Lingxue very much, and specially hired a dozen Chinese-speaking Filipino maids to serve them, hoping to give them the ultimate experience.
Clay smiled and said: "Miss Qiao, Miss Qiu, our wife has said that while you are working, you will temporarily live in this manor. You can choose the bedrooms inside and use the servants at your disposal. It is too late now. Tomorrow
Our lady will invite you to the palace."
Qiao Xixi didn't expect that the other party would arrange everything so thoughtfully, and said sincerely: "Thank you, Mrs. Margaret, for me."
"OK."
After Clay arranged everything, he left the manor.
They each picked a room they liked.
Qin Yihan and Qiao Xixi lived together as usual, while Gu Yichen and Qiu Lingxue lived in their own room.
After they checked in and settled their luggage.
Qin Yihan contacted Shadow and asked about Ruirui's situation in the royal palace.
The shadows said that the other party seemed to know that they were investigating the little girl and had relocated the person.
They immediately reopened the investigation...
However, after all, this is the territory of King A's royal family. They don't dare to be arrogant and can only be sneaky, so the speed may be a little slower.
Although Qin Yihan was anxious, facing this situation, he had no choice but to agree.
But he didn't have the patience to wait any longer...
Qin Yihan thought about going to the palace tomorrow, his eyes darkened, and a cold light flashed through his eyes.
Qiao Xixi also called Black Fox.
However, the phone on the other end is still turned off...
Qiao Xixi couldn't help but worry about his situation, so she sent a message.
[Qiao Xixi: Black Fox, I am currently in country A. If you see this message, contact me immediately! 】
Just when Qiao Xixi was frowning, someone suddenly hugged her from behind.
The man's deep and sexy voice rang out, and he said with relief:
"Xixi, don't worry. Now that we have arrived in country A, it will be a matter of time before we find Ruirui."
Qiao Xixi leaned on his chest and hummed softly.
Qin Yihan looked at the moonlight outside, thinking that there were still many things to be busy with tomorrow, and he couldn't help but feel a little more heartbroken when he looked down at her eyes.
He said: "Xixi, go and take a rest."
Although it is night in country A, Qiao Xixi is still experiencing the time difference in the imperial capital, and he really doesn't feel sleepy at all now.
She couldn't wait to go to the royal palace tomorrow to inquire about the situation.
Qiao Xixi shook her head, "I don't want to sleep just yet, you go and rest."
"If you don't even sleep, I won't feel sleepy alone."
With fondness in Qin Yihan's eyes, he held her hand, paused and said, "Xixi, I'll stay with you. When you feel sleepy, we'll go back to sleep."
Qiao Xixi was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but feel a warm current in his heart.
She was very lucky that Qin Yihan was still by her side during this most helpless time.
Otherwise, if she was alone, I might not be able to survive...
…
At the other end, Gu Yichen's room.
After he placed his luggage, he was humming a song and just wanted to take a comfortable bath.
At this moment, the phone suddenly rang.
Gu Yichen glanced at the screen and saw that it was a video call from his mother, and the expression on his face suddenly changed.
