The office was filled with cold air, making one feel as if they had fallen into an igloo.
Yu Ge looked up and saw Qiu Xingyu. He walked towards her in surprise, his eyes filled with sinister intent. He pinched Qiu Xingyu’s cheeks tightly as he whispered, “Do you still remember me?”
Qiu Xingyu shrank back and struggled to escape Yu Ge’s teasing. Her body trembled uncontrollably.
Qiu Tong sensed her uneasiness. She hurriedly used her body to shield Little Yu as she warned coldly, “Stay away from her! If you dare to touch my child, I will fight you to the death… I will never let you off!”
Yu Ge sneered sinisterly before dusting off his hands and lighting the cigar in his mouth.
Qiu Xingyu recalled that when they were still living in the dilapidated house, Yu Ge had taken the opportunity to abuse Qiu Xingyuan and Qiu Xingqiao in every way possible.
All sorts of memories surged into her mind, causing Qiu Xingyu to instinctively fear Yu Ge.
She closed her eyes tightly and leaned on Qiu Tong’s shoulder to calm her emotions.
Qiu Tong patted her back gently and walked straight to the desk in the corner to take a seat.
Yu Ge was unwilling to let them off. Propping his chin on his hands at the desk, he deliberately blew smoke from his cigar at Qiu Xingyu. The smoke made her cough non-stop. A murderous intent surged in Qiu Tong’s eyes. She wanted to slam the table and flip it against him. However, Qiu Xingyu sensibly tugged at her sleeve. “Mommy, I’m fine!”
“Oh, I didn’t expect your relationship to be so good now.”
“Back then, you wanted to elope with me and got Lin Shan to find a buyer. You wanted to sell them… could it be that you continued to keep them by your side because you saw that they were capable enough to earn money for you?”
“Qiu Tong, why don’t I help you find a buyer? Leave those burdens behind. We can…”
Yu Ge deliberately brought up the past to instigate Qiu Xingyu.
Qiu Tong covered Qiu Xingyu’s ear, wanting to prevent her from hearing his nonsense.
However, Qiu Xingyu turned to look straight at him. She said firmly, “Mommy won’t!”
“Mommy loves us. Back then, it was all because of you, a baddie, who bewitched her!”
Qiu Xingyu moved forward, wanting to slap Yu Ge. Yu Ge frowned and took two steps back. He licked his teeth impatiently and smashed the crystal display beside him. He raised his hand and pointed at Qiu Xingyu as he scolded loudly, “Shut up!”
“If I hear any more noise from you, I’ll throw you out the window. Do you believe me?”
Yu Ge pushed open the window, wanting to snatch Qiu Xingyu from Qiu Tong.
Qiu Tong turned her back to him and protected Qiu Xingyu in her arms, using her elbow to hit an injured spot that Yu Ge had sustained in the prison.
Yu Ge gasped and bent down to cover his wound. He was in so much pain that his entire body was twitching and his teeth were chattering.
Qiu Tong pretended to look down at him kindly and called the secretary to help him.
Now, only the mother and daughter pair were left in the office. She quickly lowered the blinds and blocked the surveillance cameras.
Qiu Xingyu shook her head to get rid of her fear and took the opportunity to run to the computer. She typed rapidly on the keyboard, her eyes sparkling as she cracked the password to the network.
Qiu Tong listened for any movement outside while searching for any hidden nooks that might contain information.
The Liqing Corporation’s network was set up by experts. The layers of firewalls and anti-tracking software made it difficult for Qiu Xingyu.
Qiu Xingyu was so anxious that her forehead was covered in cold sweat. She pouted gently and tried her best to think from the perspective of a cybersecurity expert in order to crack it. However, the progress was not smooth. She was stuck at the final stage and could not advance…
Yu Ge had been gone for about 15 minutes. Qiu Tong frowned and walked to Qiu Xingyu’s side. She couldn’t bear to hurry her.
Qiu Xingyu took some time to rub the tip of her nose with her thumb and hit the space button. A progress bar appeared on the computer screen!
Qiu Tong’s eyes widened in surprise. She quickly inserted the USB drive she carried with her into the computer. The office was so quiet that the sound of two hearts beating could be heard.
The sound of the elevator arriving suddenly rang out!
Qiu Xingyu saw the red dot on her wristwatch getting closer and closer to them. She tugged at her mother’s wrist in a panic. “Mommy, the bad guy is coming…”
Qiu Tong covered Qiu Xingyu’s mouth with her hand and quickly searched for a place to hide in the room. She stuffed her into a cabinet.
“Shh, no matter what you hear outside, don’t come out unless Mommy calls you. Got it?”
Qiu Tonghad stuffed the medicine produced by Qiu Xingyuan into her hand. Qiu Xingyu wanted to reject her, but Qiu Tong quickly closed the cabinet door. Qiu Tong then quickly turned around and sat on the sofa, just as the door to the room opened. She pretended to be calm as she looked up at Terrence.
Out of the corner of her eye, she saw that the cabinet door was not closed properly. She stood up to block Terrence’s view of the cabinet.
Although Terrence would not be surprised to see Qiu Xingyu in the office, Qiu Tong didn’t dare to take the risk!
If Terrence discovered something amiss, she could fight him to the death. However, if Terrence managed to get hold of Qiu Xingyu as a hostage, she would probably go crazy. Therefore, she had to hide Qiu Xingyu to prevent any accidents from happening…
The two of them stared at each other for half a minute. Terrence looked at the empty office and frowned suspiciously at Qiu Tong.
“Where’s Mr. Yu Ge?”
Terrence asked while Qiu Tong tried her best to calm her rapid breathing.. She answered steadily, “His old injury acted up and he’s getting treatment for it.”
