3033 We Have Nothing to Talk About
At this moment, a strong urge to flee gripped the young woman. It felt as if she had been laid bare, her innermost thoughts exposed for all to see.
Desperately, she attempted to discreetly transport the old man and Niuniu back to Paradise Planet, but her efforts were in vain.
Observing Second Qin’s cold and threatening gaze focused on the two individuals, as if he were about to harm them again, Qiao Mu made a swift decision to place the two of them within a Storage Talisman. She had no time to explain anything to them.
Simultaneously, Second Young Sir Qin had already rushed towards her and grabbed her wrist. In the blink of an eye, he swiftly snatched the Storage Talisman, which she couldn’t retrieve in time.
A snide chuckle escaped Second Young Sir’s lips, and he shook his head. “I never expected my Qiaoqiao to show such kindness one day.”
“Why?”
“You have no quarrel or animosity with them. Why act so aggressively?”
Qiao Mu watched with a cold gaze as the Storage Talisman floated up and down in the man’s hand, her emotions momentarily thrown into turmoil.
What was this person trying to accomplish?
“Let’s find a place to talk.”
“There’s nothing to discuss between us.” Qiao Mu stepped back cautiously and struggled to free her wrist from his grip.
However, his grip was firm, and he used his full strength to keep Her Excellency Lady Qiaoqiao at his side.
Qiao Mu exerted every ounce of her strength to resist falling into his arms. Her almond-shaped eyes widened with a blend of anger and deep frustration. “What do you think you’re doing?”
“Let’s talk. Why were you so wary of me from the start?”
“We were complete strangers then.”
“Why do you always insist on keeping your distance from me?”
“Why…” His fingers grazed her temples as he spoke lightly, “are you planning to escape?”
Qiao Mu noticed the depth in his gaze, with the flicker of jadeite light in his eyes. Although he was undeniably handsome, he emitted an inexplicable sense of dread.
Her wrist tensed slightly, and she made an even more concerted effort to free it from his grasp. “Release me!”
“Isn’t an ordinary person’s life as insignificant as an ant’s?” A few violet-blue electric currents suddenly crackled between the fingers that held the talisman.
“Imagine if I were to destroy this talisman, would the people inside still have a chance at life?”
Qiao Mu sneered, offering him a silent gaze.
“You must be thinking that, given the quality of this purple talisman, it’s impossible for me to destroy it, right?” Second Young Sir Qin suddenly smiled, and his eyes seemed to radiate warmth. He appeared incredibly gentle, yet it sent a chill down one’s spine.
“That’s your assumption.” Second Young Sir eventually released her wrist and lowered his head to examine the bruise on her fair skin, which had been pinched by his fervent fingers. He frowned in dissatisfaction.
“Just because you can’t destroy it doesn’t mean there are no other options.”
“Do you still intend to escape?” He toyed with the Storage Talisman in his hand, looking at her with indifference.
“Heh.” Qiao Mu cast a cold glance at him before taking a couple of steps back.
“Have it your way.”
Second Young Sir Qin’s eyes shifted slightly as he gazed at the petite woman before him, who resembled ice and jade in her exquisite appearance. He smiled faintly and remarked, “Qiaoqiao, is it truly in your best interest to be so heartless?”
Qiao Mu maintained her icy demeanor.
After a prolonged silence, he glanced around. “Given that they’re here, why not allow them to come forward?”
A faint smile played on the lips of Second Young Sir Qin, briefly lighting up his eyes.
