From Runaway Bride to Global Queen-Chapter 103 - Will You Help Me?
Chapter 103: Chapter 103 Will You Help Me?
“I have to go back home to handle some sudden matters, I’ll hang out with you next time!”
Before Qiao Yi left, she gave Han Wenle a small package, reminding her to bring it along when she goes out these days.
“Keep this safe, don’t let anyone see it!”
Qiao Yi didn’t know what about her words made this girl blush.
Qiao Yi was baffled, she meant to say Qiao Xin, what’s there for Han Wenle to blush about!
Not sure what Han Wenle misunderstood, Qiao Yi thought about it and explained.
“When you go out, bring this with you and try to avoid Qiao Xin, don’t tell her I’ve already left!”
The Qiao sisters’ discord isn’t new, it used to be just Qiao Xin picking on her, but now Qiao Yi is fighting back.
Han Wenle felt awkward, realized she had misunderstood, and quickly coughed, nodding seriously.
“Don’t worry, I won’t tell Qiao Xin!”

Qiao Yi was, of course, very relieved, whether Qiao Xin would be infuriated upon discovering she had been duped wasn’t Qiao Yi’s concern.
Lu Yanchuan didn’t leave with Qiao Yi; before Qiao Yi left, Lu Yanchuan vanished, only telling Qiao Yi to go back first and that he’d return in a few days.
Qiao Yi never planned to track Lu Yanchuan’s whereabouts, and she was momentarily stunned when Lu Yanchuan reported his movements to her.
“Sister! I’m here to pick you up!”
This time, Qiao Yi only informed Qiao Qiao, she didn’t even tell Qiao Benqing.
“Sis, why didn’t you bring me along on your trip! Don’t you care about me anymore?”
The twenty-something big boy still overwhelmed people with his childishness, Qiao Yi forcefully pushed away Qiao Qiao’s fluffy head and tousled his hair.
“Stop joking, I asked you to pick me up because there’s serious business, you didn’t tell mom and dad, did you?”
“No, I told them I was out to meet a friend, didn’t tell them you’re back.”
Qiao Yi was very pleased and gave Qiao Qiao a smile, “Sis will take you to meet someone, see if you can handle her.”
Qiao Qiao suddenly widened his eyes, zipped to the other door of the car, crossed his arms as if he were a maiden encountering a pervert.
“Sis! What are you doing! You’re not going to make me sell my charm, are you!”
Qiao Yi scowled and slapped Qiao Qiao, what had this naughty guy learned abroad! Why did he turn into this mess!
“What are you thinking! Even if you’d sacrifice your charm, others have to agree first. When we get there, keep quiet until I tell you to speak, got it?”
Qiao Yi laid down the order, Qiao Qiao pouted and reluctantly nodded.
But his arms protected his chest, a defensive posture, he probably still didn’t trust Qiao Yi.
Qiao Yi clenched her fists tightly but didn’t hit Qiao Qiao, silently chanting ten times that this is her own little brother, she shouldn’t beat him to stupidity, and she finally let out a snort sparing Qiao Qiao’s life.
The car reached Gela Hotel, the hardest place to book in the second ring of the Capital City.
Qiao Yi was in such a rush to return mainly because she wanted to use the Qiao and Lu families’ influence to silence those chasing after Mr. Tao’s artworks.
Another reason was the special message she received on her phone.
Sun Keke had sent her an invitation, asking to meet at Gela Hotel.
Qiao Qiao could only be considered an extra, the main reason Qiao Yi brought him was because of the message from Sun Keke, which stated that the Sun Family wanted to form a marriage alliance with the Qiao Family.
Since Qiao Xin and her were both married, the only one in the Qiao Family who could form a marital alliance was Qiao Qiao, so Qiao Yi could only bring him along.
After learning from Qiao Yi through soft persistence and hard bargains what his role in this was, Qiao Qiao was already preparing to escape.
However, before he could even step out, he was already dragged into the hotel by Qiao Yi.
A grown man, standing over one meter eighty, was carried by Qiao Yi as if he was a small chick, it was pitiful to see.
“Why are you running? I’m not necessarily going to make you marry into the Sun Family, I’m just bringing you along to take a look.”
“Besides, if you leave now, do you expect me, your older sister, to attend this ambiguous dinner alone? Aren’t you scared that something dangerous might happen to me?”
Qiao Qiao was on the verge of tears, could he dare to retort? Could he dare to argue! He didn’t dare!
What could he say? Did he expect him to say, ‘Don’t worry, sister, you won’t encounter any dangers, you’ll only bring dangers to others’?
It’s not like he was tired of living!
Wanting to continue living well, Qiao Qiao gave up on the possibility of communicating with Qiao Yi and was dragged into the hotel with Qiao Yi’s firm grip.
Fortunately, Qiao Yi still left Qiao Qiao some dignity; before entering the reserved private room, she let go of a disheartened Qiao Qiao.
Sun Keke had already been waiting for a long time. To be exact, she had already been in Gela Hotel, waiting for Qiao Yi’s arrival, when she sent the message to Qiao Yi.
The private room was very spacious, but inside, there was only Sun Keke sitting alone.
“Keke…how…how did you end up like this!”
Sun Keke was sitting with her back to the door. Qiao Yi circled around the half-person-high chair and finally got a clear view of Sun Keke’s appearance.
If not for seeing Sun Keke’s face clearly, Qiao Yi almost couldn’t believe that the emaciated, haggard, and frightening woman in front of her was the same shy and gentle girl from before!
Sun Keke sat on the chair, expressionlessly looking at Qiao Yi, and motioning with a slight wave of her hand for her to sit down and talk.
In less than a month, Sun Keke had lost a lot of weight, her cheekbones deeply sunken in, and her arms that stretched out were also terribly skinny.
What caught Qiao Yi’s attention the most were the scars visible all over her body.
Burns, scalds, cuts – on her face, hands, legs!
Almost all visible areas were covered with scars.
“What…what exactly happened…”
Qiao Yi didn’t consider herself a good person; she had gotten into fights and even knife fights, but she had never seen or imagined such scars as those on Sun Keke’s body in her entire life.
Just looking at these scars, she was already terrified, not to mention the other marks on Sun Keke’s skin that evoked many thoughts.
“Qiao Yi, are you willing to help me?”
Sun Keke spoke, and Qiao Yi was even more shocked.
“Your voice…”
“As you can see, I’m practically a wreck now.”
Sun Keke shrugged nonchalantly, even taking the liberty to lift her clothing, showing Qiao Yi even more hidden scars beneath her clothes.
Qiao Yi grabbed Sun Keke’s hand, tears welling up as she looked into her eyes.
“I’m willing to help you, as long as I’m capable.”
