From Runaway Bride to Global Queen-Chapter 73 - : The Most Afraid of the Sudden Silence of the Air
Chapter 73: Chapter 73: The Most Afraid of the Sudden Silence of the Air
Mr. Ning? Ning Yuze?
Sun Keke took her shopping bag from Qiao Yi with a slightly faded smile on her face.
“So it turns out we are staying at the same hotel; what a coincidence! I’ll leave you alone then, and maybe I’ll treat you to a meal sometime.”
Qiao Yi smiled at Sun Keke, nodding her head and then turned to walk into the hotel. She had only taken a few steps when Sun Keke behind her called out to her.
“Miss Qiao, wait!”
Qiao Yi paused, puzzled, and turned to look at Sun Keke, whose impression on Qiao Yi was neither particularly bad nor particularly good.
...
It wasn’t because of her illegitimate status, after all, she didn’t choose that for herself. Qiao Yi mainly disliked Sun Keke’s timorous demeanor.
Indeed, she is powerless in front of the Sun Family and Ning Family, but a person who is carefree compared to someone who is timid handles situations differently and achieves different outcomes.
If Sun Keke were in Qiao Yi’s shoes, she would never just passively accept her circumstances, certainly not being bullied in the restroom! Nevertheless, while Qiao Yi did not like it, she did not show it outwardly.
“What is it, Miss Sun? Is there anything else?”
Sun Keke hesitated, biting her lip, but finally walked up to Qiao Yi and whispered.
“Miss Qiao, could you do me a favor?”
Hearing Sun Keke’s request, Qiao Yi’s eyes brightened and a slightly strange smile appeared on her face.
“Sure, leave it to me. I’ll help you.”
Qiao Yi wanted to kiss Sun Keke on the face, but with her hands full, she couldn’t even pat her on the shoulder, so she just flapped her arms to show her sincerity.
Sun Keke felt a great relief, took a kraft envelope from her bag, stuffed it into Qiao Yi’s bag, took a few bags from Qiao Yi, and they walked towards the elevator together.
So there is some truth to the saying “narrow roads lead to enemies meeting,” especially when Qiao Yi saw Qiao Xin and Lu Ming standing outside the elevator.
“Here’s your invitation, don’t bother me again!”
Qiao Yi quickly took a kraft envelope from her bag before Qiao Xin could speak and threw it into Qiao Xin’s hands.
Seeing how readily she handed it over made Qiao Xin somewhat skeptical of the invitation’s authenticity.
Earlier in the morning, Qiao Yi refused to agree to give her invitation, so why now did she so easily hand it over?
Lu Ming took the invitation from the envelope, nodded after a quick glance – it was a secondary invitation.
The primary invite should be with Lu Yanchuan; since the secondary one could be handled by Lu Yanchuan, it wasn’t signed and only bore the same number as the primary one.
Having attended auctions before, Lu Ming could certainly verify the authenticity of primary and secondary invitations. Seeing that Lu Ming confirmed this invitation’s authenticity, Qiao Xin was even more puzzled as she watched Qiao Yi walking away.
When did she become so easy to talk to?
Sun Keke’s palms were sweating with nervousness; if not for Qiao Yi standing in front of her and Qiao Xin’s attention not being on her, she might have already given herself away.
Back in her room, Sun Keke leaned against the door, panting heavily.
“You, you mean your solution was to give her my invitation?”
Sun Keke felt like going crazy. The invitation Qiao Yi had just passed to Qiao Xin was the one Sun Keke gave to Qiao Yi, and its primary invitee was Ning Yuze!
If that were discovered…
Sun Keke could hardly imagine what would happen then.
“Yeah, what else did you think? From now on, your invitation is lost, and you never gave me any invitation, got it?”
Sun Keke nodded stiffly, Qiao Yi looked at her helplessly and pursed her lips, communicating the matter to Lu Yanchuan with her phone.
After all, they would need Lu Yanchuan’s help for cover, so it was necessary to inform him in advance.
Qiao Yi waited a while after sending the message, and only received an “okay” from Lu Yanchuan, which made her feel uncertain.
Does he have to be so casual?
Qiao Yi didn’t care about his casualness; she was eager to attend the auction, thinking about it was thrilling.
Should she try to get an invitation for Lu Ming too?
Sun Keke saw Qiao Yi standing by the window with a weird smile on her face, which scared her into continuously backing away.
When Lu Yanchuan returned to the hotel, it was already late at night, but when he got to his room, he found that Qiao Yi was still awake and seemed to be excitedly arguing with someone.
“Can’t you play at all? Help, help, I’m gonna die! Ah!!! I’m dead!!!!!!”
Strange noises came from the bedroom. Excited, Qiao Yi’s voice was breaking. As Lu Yanchuan was about to go check on Qiao Yi, he heard her screaming again.
“Ahhh! Brother Li Bai! I love you!!!!”
What’s going on? He knew Li Bai, but who was Brother Li Bai?
A flash of green went across Lu Yanchuan’s eyes. Without even taking off his coat, he walked into the bedroom, and the scene in front of him stunned him.
Qiao Yi was lying on the bed in a very twisted posture, one leg under her head as a pillow and the other leg hanging off the bed in a position difficult for ordinary people.
Qiao Yi had a greenish face mask on, a flashy hair clip on her head, and her silk pajamas were squeezed up because of her twisted posture, revealing a small section of her slender waist.
This…
Hearing the noise at the door, Qiao Yi glanced at the door with squinting eyes and saw Lu Yanchuan silently watching her.
The worst fear is the sudden silence.
The sound of the game ending broke the awkward silence in the room, Qiao Yi screamed, quickly picked up her phone, saw the glaring “defeat” on the screen, and like a frostbitten eggplant, dejected and disappointed, threw her phone aside.
Kneeling for five rounds! Not happy at all!

“Cough!”
Lu Yanchuan coughed softly and turned to leave the bedroom; Qiao Yi suddenly snapped back to reality and scrambled up from the bed into the bathroom.
Why did he come back at this time! She was just applying a face mask, doing some yoga, playing a game, and just happened to be caught by Lu Yanchuan!
Lu Yanchuan waited outside for a while but Qiao Yi did not come out, so he had to knock on the bathroom door.
“I’ll be quick!”
Something seemed to happen inside the bathroom, and after some chaos, the normal Qiao Yi finally opened the door and walked out, all the flashy items gone, Lu Yanchuan felt somewhat unused to seeing the prim and proper Qiao Yi in front of him.
Maybe, that was her most relaxed self just now?
Qiao Yi walked past Lu Yanchuan and dove into the blanket. Her phone kept ringing with notifications, it was Feng Siyu calling her to come online.
“What’s the use of playing, I’m already dead!”
