Chapter 41 - Chapter 41 A Word That Startles the Sleeper, Zhu Zhuyun's Painstaking Efforts

"You...hello, I'm Zhu Zhuqing!"

Looking at Xiao Wu's smiling face, Zhu Zhuqing was slightly stunned and subconsciously reached out to shake her hand.

After reacting, Zhu Zhuqing immediately said gratefully, "Thank you just now, otherwise, I'm afraid I would have been in great danger."

Xiao Wu waved her hand dismissively and said, "It's a small matter, no need to thank me."

"If it wasn't for Xiao Lin Ge's sharp eyes just now, I really wouldn't have noticed you."

Zhu Zhuqing immediately looked gratefully at Qi Lin.

Noticing Zhu Zhuqing's gaze, Qi Lin smiled slightly and introduced himself, "My name is Qi Lin!"

His smile had a clean and sunny feel, and his body exuded an approachable aura.

This aura made Zhu Zhuqing unable to resist taking another look.

But immediately, she shyly withdrew her gaze and said slightly quickly, "You...hello!"

At this moment, Xiao Wu leaned over and asked curiously, "By the way, why were these guys attacking you?"

Hearing Xiao Wu's question, a trace of hatred flashed across Zhu Zhuqing's slightly cold face, and she said mockingly, "Maybe I posed a threat to someone, so she sent these people to eliminate me completely."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Wu's eyes sparkled, and a gossipy expression appeared on her pretty face.

Although she didn't know the specific situation Zhu Zhuqing was in, her mind had already conjured up several melodramatic stories.

At this moment, Qi Lin suddenly spoke, "Although I don't know what happened to you, I don't think these few people look like they want to eliminate you completely."

As soon as these words were spoken, a hint of anger subtly appeared on Zhu Zhuqing's face.

Her 'good' older sister, just because she was worried that her coming to Suotuo City to find Dai Mubai might pose a threat to her and Davis, sent people to follow and hunt her down all the way.

They chased her all the way from the Imperial Capital of the Star Luo Empire to Suotuo City.

If this isn't called complete elimination, then what is!

In contrast to Zhu Zhuqing, the four people lying on the ground, except for the one who had fainted, all looked at Qi Lin with grateful expressions.

Finally, someone understood them!

At this moment, Xiao Wu asked curiously, "Xiao Lin Ge, is this why you asked me to show mercy?"

"Yes!" Qi Lin nodded.

"Then how did you tell that these few people didn't intend to eliminate completely?"

After Xiao Wu finished speaking, Zhu Zhuqing also couldn't help but cast her gaze over.

Qi Lin explained, "Are you silly? The lowest level among these four is Soul Grandmaster. If they really wanted to eliminate completely, could this girl still be alive?"

"Also, looking at how they fought for a long time just now, if they really wanted to kill, would they not even use a single soul skill?"

"Uh... it seems so!" Xiao Wu nodded, half-understanding.

"I told you to read more books usually, but you insisted on playing games, and as a result, you can't even analyze this little detail, you idiot!"

As Qi Lin spoke, he also raised his hand and flicked Xiao Wu's smooth forehead.

Meanwhile, Zhu Zhuqing, who was listening from the side, suddenly had her brain freeze for a moment.

In her mind, she couldn't help but start recalling the scene when she escaped from the Imperial Capital.

After sneaking out, she had been pursued by assassins sent by Zhu Zhuyun all the way to here.

Because of her hatred towards Zhu Zhuyun, she never thought while being pursued, only blindly believing that Zhu Zhuyun wanted to kill her.

Now, after hearing Qi Lin's analysis and calming down, Zhu Zhuqing put aside her prejudice against Zhu Zhuyun and went back to analyze.

Suddenly, she discovered many details she had never noticed before.

Could... could it be!

Did older sister really not intend to kill me?

But why did she still send people to follow and chase her?

Was it just to make herself hate her?

Wh...why!

Just as Zhu Zhuqing was doubting life, Xiao Wu poked Qi Lin's waist.

"Xiao Lin Ge, what's wrong with her?"

"How would I know?" Qi Lin spread his hands.

At this moment, Zhu Zhuqing walked up to the four masked men and questioned them sharply.

"Tell me, what exactly was the mission you received?"

"Was it to eliminate me completely?"

"Along the way, why didn't you use your full strength against me before!"

"Gulp!" The masked man in the lead swallowed a mouthful of saliva and exchanged glances with the two people next to him.

How were they supposed to answer this?

If they told the truth, it would be difficult to explain to the Eldest Miss.

If they didn't say anything, they were worried about being killed directly by the Second Miss in her rage.

But with their meager monthly salary, why risk their lives?

The best way was only...

One of them gritted his teeth and directly chopped himself on the neck with a hand.

The next second, his neck tilted, and he fainted directly.

This scene instantly stunned his companions beside him.

But soon his eyes lit up, fearing he would be questioned, so he followed suit and also gave himself a hand chop to the neck.

Bang!

Another one fell!

Only the last person remained, looking left and right, finally meeting Zhu Zhuqing's questioning gaze.

But at this moment, whether he spoke or not, Zhu Zhuqing had already guessed the truth of the matter.

Older sister didn't want to fight against her sibling, but that was fate.

So she had to make herself hate her, fear her, and make herself cowardly escape from the Imperial Capital like Dai Mubai, never to return.

Waving her hand weakly, Zhu Zhuqing slightly lowered her head, her expression complex.

"Go back and tell older sister that I appreciate her good intentions, but I still won't choose to accept my fate!"

After speaking, Zhu Zhuqing turned around, turning her back to the few people.

Recalling the scenes of older sister being close to her in childhood, the hatred she felt towards her older sister also dissipated at this moment.

But soon, her gaze became firm again!

She came to Suotuo City precisely to find Dai Mubai and fight against fate with him!

Although Dai Mubai was several years younger than Davis, his talent surpassed that of his older brother.

The outcome was still undecided, but as long as Dai Mubai was willing to work hard, they would definitely still have hope!

At this moment, Xiao Wu saw that Zhu Zhuqing's mood was off and immediately said, "Zhu Zhuqing, are you alright?"

"I'm fine, thank you!" A forced smile appeared on Zhu Zhuqing's face, and she shook her head.

"That's good. By the way, where are you planning to go next?"

Zhu Zhuqing didn't think much and said directly, "Suotuo City!"

"Suotuo City!"

"What a coincidence, we're also going to Suotuo City!"

Xiao Wu's voice rose by a notch, and then she said happily, "In that case, we're going the same way! Zhu Zhuqing, why don't you come with me to Suotuo City? We're really fast."

Hearing Xiao Wu's invitation, a hesitant look appeared on Zhu Zhuqing's face.

After all, she and Xiao Wu had just met.

But before Zhu Zhuqing could refuse, Xiao Wu had already pulled her to the door of the off-road vehicle.

"Alright, hurry in!"

As she spoke, Xiao Wu also enthusiastically helped Zhu Zhuqing open the back passenger door.

Seeing this, Zhu Zhuqing simply got in and curiously looked at the interior furnishings of the car.

Although she was the Second Miss of the Zhu family in the Star Luo Empire, it was the first time she had seen such a miraculous mode of transportation.

At this moment, Qi Lin and Xiao Wu also got in.

Xiao Wu sat in the driver's seat and cheered.

"Let's go!"
