Chapter 3640 What we want to protect is more important than life

Simon looked at the girl, his azure blue pupils flashed behind the gold-rimmed lenses.

He raised his hand and pushed down his glasses: "Miss Qiao, forgive me. That man seems to have a grudge against you, and the grudge is not small. He came at you from the very beginning!"

"Oh?" Qiao Nian narrowed her eyes to examine the expression on his face, as if judging whether he was lying.

Simon straightened his back and let her look at him, his heart was calm and his eyes didn't change: "I don't need to lie to you when things have come to this point."

"I feel like that person is here for you. To put it bluntly, even if he doesn't have the support of the Queen behind him, he will probably cause trouble for you."

He paused: "As for the reason why he troubled you...I don't know... Only Ms. Qiao can think about whether she has offended this person."

Qiao Nian put down his legs, and said casually: "I have offended many people, I don't know which number you are talking about."

Simon glanced at her, and rarely said seriously: "This person is very dangerous, I advise Miss Qiao to find out."

Qiao Nian tilted his head: "Are you using me?"

"yes."

Simon didn't hide his purpose, and said confidently: "If he didn't come to me and asked me to cooperate, I wouldn't be where I am today. After the incident, he left me and ran away. Replace me with you, you I won't let him go! But..."

He changed his voice and met Qiao Nian's eyes again: "I have the intention of taking revenge on him by your hand, but what I said was all sincere - this person is very dangerous, and there is another one who seems to have a deep hatred against you. Miss Qiao is a smart person, you don't feel at ease leaving such a person outside, don't you?"

Qiao Nian got up and dusted off his clothes, but didn't give a clear answer: "...Let's talk about it, I'm not short of one or two enemies!"

Simon saw the girl get up, pick up her things and turn around to leave, her expression changed, and just before Qiao Nian walked out the door, she clenched her fists and called out in a hoarse voice: "Miss Qiao."

Qiao Nian held the doorknob with one hand. Hearing this, he stopped and didn't turn his head: "Say."

"How do you know that I am willing to agree to your conditions?" Simon still confessed all his doubts.

He has been guessing how Qiao Nian plans to deal with him these two days.

He thought of many possibilities.

For example, Qiao Nian brought people to kidnap him, or threatened him with a gun to his head... I didn't expect such a peaceful conversation today.

He just said everything.

Simon's throat was dry: "How do you know that I will tell you...what if I refuse to say it?"

Qiao Nian didn't understand what he was asking this for, and turned his head and squinted at the past, just catching the pain and loneliness on the man's face.

She seemed to understand what Simon was asking, pursed her lower lip, took a rare breath of relief, and said softly: "Because everyone has something in their heart that they want to protect, and this is more important than life."

"..."

"I have something to protect, and you have it too."

What Simon wants to protect is not the reputation and interests, but the chamber of commerce alliance that he has fought for most of his life. Qiao Nian saw this clearly and never thought of using violence to solve this problem.

For an old fox like Ximeng who has been wandering around the independent continent all the year round, even if you catch him and break his leg, he may not be willing to tell you the truth.

Only when you talk to him on the condition of something he really cares about, will he tell you the truth.

Qiao Nian left this sentence, and without looking at Simon's follow-up reaction, turned around and opened the door to go out.

Only Simon was left standing in the office blankly, watching her walking away, abruptly pulled the corner of his mouth, and shook his head with a smile: "I'm really old, and I was actually seen through by a little girl in her early twenties..."
