Whether this reason was fabricated or not, it seemed reasonably sufficient. Even if Chu Tian Tianqiu were to arrange a confrontational game, for safety's sake he should have his own people “echo” first. Moreover, since he and Yun Yao formed a team, if danger arose she certainly wouldn't be able to escape.
How could Chu Tian Tianqiu casually sacrifice the organization's second-in-command? If he always operated with such tactics, Zhang Shan and Yun Yao wouldn't have kept following him. Unfortunately, Officer Li's team was completely wiped out, leaving this seemingly conspiratorial action without witnesses.
In that case… everything became very interesting.
“I understand how you feel, Qi Xia,” Chu Tian Tianqiu said sadly.
“Losing a teammate in a game is extremely painful. Sometimes we'd rather be the ones who died.”
“But you don't even participate in the games yourself, so how would you know that feeling?”
Qi Xia replied calmly.
“Who says I don't participate in games?”
Chu Tian Tianqiu shook his head.
