"This is definitely a conspiracy!" Li Siqi affirmed, "However, Ye Xiao will certainly go back."

"Why still go?" Jiang Miaoke and Lan Lan spoke almost simultaneously, "There will definitely be great danger, Ye Xiao, you can't go."

Ye Xiao glanced at Jiang Miaoke, smiled slightly, and said, "I still have to go, otherwise, Feng Hai will definitely think Jiang Miaoke found an unreliable man, and you'll be despised by him."

"Let him despise. That doesn't warrant your taking risks. Who knows the strength of that group? What if they're all a bunch of monsters?" Jiang Miaoke said, "How about I call my grandpa and dad and see what they think."

"Don't call!" This wasn't said by Ye Xiao, but by Li Siqi.

Hearing Li Siqi's words, Jiang Miaoke immediately looked at Li Siqi in confusion. She truly didn't understand what was up with Li Siqi today. Did she really want Ye Xiao to get into trouble? Why isn't she helping persuade him now?

"Qiqi, if you're not helping to persuade, then don't speak." Jiang Miaoke was a bit annoyed. Is this the time to add fuel to the fire? What if Ye Xiao goes and something unfavorable happens to him, what then?

Upon hearing Jiang Miaoke's voice, Li Siqi immediately smiled slightly and said, "You little brat, you said you're pretending to be a couple with Ye Xiao. Now, why do I feel this doesn't seem like pretending?"

"I... I..." Jiang Miaoke immediately felt at a loss and then said, "At the very least, we're friends. We're all friends, so we shouldn't stand by and watch friends in danger and not try to dissuade them."

Jiang Miaoke felt she had found a very good reason. After all, since we're friends, if we see friends in danger, naturally we should give a heads-up.

However, upon hearing this, Li Siqi just lightly smiled.

Lan Lan also spoke, "Close friends, huh?"

Jiang Miaoke's cheeks immediately reddened, she looked at Lan Lan and said, "Lan Lan, do you also want to see Ye Xiao in danger?"

Hearing Jiang Miaoke's words, Lan Lan immediately looked at Ye Xiao, sighed, and said, "You better not go. Joking aside, Coco is right. Since you know there's danger ahead, why insist on going? Moreover, it was won through a bet; there's no need to really take this risk. And besides, don't you have an IOU, at worst, go, take him to court."

Clearly, Lan Lan also didn't want Ye Xiao to take the risk.

At this time, Li Siqi smiled again and said, "I dare to bet, Ye Xiao will definitely go."

"Qiqi!" Jiang Miaoke immediately frowned and looked at Li Siqi, expressing her dissatisfaction with Li Siqi's words.

At this time, Ye Xiao's eyes were still fixed on Jiang Miaoke, staring at her intently, which made the originally slightly annoyed Jiang Miaoke feel a bit unnatural.

Jiang Miaoke looked at Ye Xiao, and asked with some curiosity, "Ye Xiao, why are you looking at me like that?"

Ye Xiao smiled and said, "I was just thinking about something very important."

"What is it?" Jiang Miaoke asked curiously upon hearing Ye Xiao's words.

"What part of me as Ye Xiao is worth the concern of a beauty." Ye Xiao said.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Miaoke's cheeks reddened again, feeling somewhat embarrassed.

Then, Ye Xiao said, "Qiqi is right, I will definitely go, because I am Ye Xiao, and also because of a man's pride."

"A man's pride?" Jiang Miaoke heard this and was even more puzzled, saying, "What does this have to do with a man's pride? This is clearly a trap."

"If I don't go, he'll say I'm a cowardly turtle. Do you like a cowardly turtle?" Ye Xiao said with a smile, "I will definitely go, otherwise, Feng Hai will still think I'm not worthy of you. I promise, once I go, Feng Hai won't trouble you anymore."

"Ye Xiao, I don't want you to be in danger because of me." Jiang Miaoke looked at Ye Xiao, with a serious face.

"Don't worry, I won't be in any danger. You should rather consider whether that so-called Feng family young master will be in danger." Ye Xiao said with a carefree smile.

Jiang Miaoke didn't expect Ye Xiao to be in a mood for joking and said, "Then take me with you. If I go, I believe Feng Hai won't be too excessive."

Ye Xiao shook his head and said, "I really can't take you there, I'm really afraid he won't be excessive."

"Ah?" Hearing Ye Xiao's words, Jiang Miaoke was even more puzzled.

However, Ye Xiao then said, "I promise, I'll definitely come back alive."

Alive!

That is evidently the biggest guarantee.

Jiang Miaoke sighed; she knew she couldn't persuade him.

At this time, Li Siqi looked at Ye Xiao and said, "You're carefree, but nothing is ever 100%, so don't be overconfident."

Hearing Li Siqi's words, Ye Xiao smiled and said, "You're quite concerned about me."

Li Siqi immediately felt somewhat uncomfortable and hurriedly said, "You're overthinking, I am not. Isn't Coco's concern for you enough? Such a flirt."

"Alright then, just consider it me overthinking." Ye Xiao said, "If I make a hundred billion Northern Federation Coin, I'll take you all to eat KFC."

The three women immediately fell silent, evidently feeling Ye Xiao was not very generous.

Afterwards, Ye Xiao and the three girls chatted and laughed for a while, then Ye Xiao left driving Jiang Miaoke's Porsche.

Originally, Ye Xiao didn't want to drive it, but Jiang Miaoke insisted that he must.

Ye Xiao thought, since he was going out anyway, he would have to call a taxi, so he might as well just drive there.

Watching the Porsche speed away from Liangju Bay, Jiang Miaoke immediately felt a sense of loss and worry, sitting quietly on the bench outside the track.

"What's wrong?" Li Siqi walked over with a smile, "You're that worried about him?"

"Of course not, no way!" Jiang Miaoke denied, but her face was still full of concern.

Li Siqi sat beside Jiang Miaoke, looking at her worried face, and said with a smile, "Are you still mad at me?"

"No!" Jiang Miaoke replied.

Li Siqi said, "It's normal to be angry, but I'm just telling the truth. Ye Xiao's personality shows that he's someone who doesn't like losing. Danger is definitely a challenge for him. Without that danger, he might not even be happy. That's why I said he would definitely go. You've known Ye Xiao longer than me, you should know this about him."

"I know, but..." Jiang Miaoke sighed.

"But you still don't want him to be in danger, right?" Li Siqi asked.

Jiang Miaoke nodded slightly.

"You've grown fond of him," Li Siqi said.

Jiang Miaoke was a bit taken aback by Li Siqi's words and quickly said, "I... I don't, I haven't."

"Still denying it? Ye Xiao isn't here." Li Siqi laughed, "And it's not just you, it's also Lan Lan."

Lan Lan, standing nearby, was startled when the conversation suddenly shifted to her, froze for two seconds, then said, "No way, Sister Qiqi, you're overthinking it!"

"Really?" Li Siqi raised an eyebrow at the slightly blushing Lan Lan and said with a smile, "Ye Xiao isn't here now, it's just the three of us, no need to be embarrassed. But liking someone and caring for them is right, yet treating him like a caged bird might not be what that bird wants."

Jiang Miaoke listened to Li Siqi's words and somewhat understood, but still said, "But I don't want him to be hurt."

"Men always have a bit of masculinity, and Ye Xiao is a traditional male, so that masculine mindset is even stronger. For someone like Ye Xiao, you should let him have his freedom," Li Siqi said with a smile, "Besides, a person like Ye Xiao is naturally adventurous, how could he live safely?"

Jiang Miaoke and Lan Lan listened to Li Siqi's words and were both a bit moved, clearly acknowledging that she was right.

But!

"Sister Qiqi, do you also like Ye Xiao?" Lan Lan suddenly asked Li Siqi.

"Eh?" Li Siqi was caught off guard by Lan Lan's sudden question and quickly laughed it off, "How could that be, you're thinking too much. Ye Xiao is a competitive guy, and I'm coincidentally competitive too. How could I like him? If I'm looking for a boyfriend, it has to be a dream man, understand? Someone perfect in every way. Ye Xiao is just a small rascal with a common touch."

"Qiqi, you may be right, but we have a very serious question we all want to know," Jiang Miaoke said seriously.

Li Siqi saw Jiang Miaoke's serious expression and asked, "What is it?"

"Why are you blushing?" Jiang Miaoke asked.

Hearing Jiang Miaoke's question, Li Siqi suddenly felt like her face was heating up. She quickly touched her cheeks, getting more embarrassed, and hurried to explain!

Meanwhile!

After leaving Liangju Bay, Ye Xiao didn't immediately head to Lotus District.

He had already promised An Meihui to call her before four o'clock, and if he went to Lotus District now, who knows how long it would take? Wouldn't that mean breaking his promise?

So, that was definitely something Ye Xiao didn't want to see.

Thus, after leaving Liangju Bay, Ye Xiao immediately took out his phone and called An Meihui.

"Why are you calling so soon?" An Meihui said with a laugh to Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao said, "What? If it's too early, are you not welcoming?"

An Meihui quickly said, "How could it be, I'm just afraid you'll be too late. Are you coming over now?"

"Yes!" Ye Xiao said.

Upon hearing Ye Xiao say he's coming over now, An Meihui quickly said, "Where are you? I'll come pick you up."

"No need, I'm driving. Just tell me the location and I'll head straight there," Ye Xiao replied.

"Okay!"
