Farewell, Ravel
Qiao Qiao paused and quickly pulled her hand back. She used her sleeve to cover her arm and muttered, "Don't look, it's a little ugly …"
Her arm was filled with small red marks from being pricked by needles. It must be very scary to look at.
"Qiao Qiao …"
He Shaochen looked at her sadly.
"Don't be so pessimistic." Seeing He Shaochen like this, Qiao Qiao panicked and quickly explained, "Although it looks serious, it's just like being pinched by ants. It doesn't hurt or itch. Look, aren't I much more energetic now … Shaochen?"
Qiao Qiao was held in He Shaochen's arms.
"Don't lie to me, you're clearly in a lot of pain! You're stuck in these tubes every day and injected with all sorts of things into your body. How can you be fine? Do you really think I don't know how painful it is to be pricked by these things? "
There were so many needle marks because they couldn't find any blood vessels. That was the proof of Qiao Qiao's weakness.
"Qiao Qiao, if it hurts, just say it. You don't have to endure it. Who knows how sensible you are? Don't you know that women who act coquettishly are more loved? Act coquettishly! "He Shaochen couldn't help but burst out.
Qiao Qiao rested her head on He Shaochen's body and muttered, "I'm indeed in a lot of pain. My body is almost numb from the pain. But if I tell you all this, you'll feel even more heartache for me. Seeing your painful expressions makes me feel even more pain. Not only my body, but also my heart. So, I want to endure it myself. Instead of everyone suffering, why don't I silently endure it alone …"
"You …"
He Shaochen didn't know what to say. He felt like he had lost all his strength and was completely defeated by Qiao Qiao.
He could only hug her even tighter. He gritted his teeth and scolded, "Stupid woman! You're really a stupid woman! Who told you to think about our feelings? It's okay to act coquettishly in front of me, idiot! "
She was obviously a hopeless idiot, but it made his heart ache.

For Qiao Qiao, He Shaochen had to speed up the process.
Because of the relationship, He Shaochen's's relationship with Momo. Because of his relationship with Momo, He Shaochen's people quickly infiltrated the J Organisation's internal. he also met with Freya's's eyes's's. although it was just their eyes met, but they understood each other.
He Shaochen wanted to rescue Freya first, but the other party refused because they had yet to find the most important thing.
Qiao Qiao, Qiao Qiao Qiao Qiao, Qiao Qiao's,.
If they rescued Freya first, they would definitely arouse the man's suspicion and it would be impossible to get the necklace back. So before they found the necklace, they couldn't act rashly.
The J Organisation had already searched everywhere they could. He Shaochen had no choice but to pin his hopes on Momo.
But Momo's answer stunned He Shaochen.
"Brother Ye, I'm sorry. Actually, I don't know where the necklace is hidden. Uncle values that necklace so much that I didn't have the chance to see it." Momo looked at He Shaochen apologetically. She was puzzled. "Why are you asking about the necklace?"
He Shaochen replied calmly, "That necklace has a magical effect. If worn for a long time, it can prolong one's life and keep them young forever. I think it's very suitable for the future queen to wear it."
Momo heard that. Future queen? Wasn't he talking about her?
Although she was happy that He Shaochen said that, she still couldn't understand. "But isn't that necklace harmful to people? I remember that woman, Lilith, is … "
"If there's no inducer, it's indeed harmful to people. But by injecting the inducer developed by the J Organisation at regular intervals, it can determine the direction of the mutation, strengthen one's body, and keep one's youth forever," He Shaochen explained.
No woman cared about their age. Momo was no exception. Her eyes lit up. She was obviously tempted. Then she frowned. "That necklace was hidden very well. Uncle didn't even tell me where it was. I'm afraid it won't be that easy to find it."
"You're going to be a queen in the future. Your uncle can't even bear to give you a necklace?" He Shaochen raised his eyebrows. He intentionally provoked Momo, and Momo's expression changed.
Her rebellious mentality towards men was getting stronger and stronger. No matter what the man said, Momo always felt that he was intentionally or unintentionally targeting her. This made her very unhappy. Now that He Shaochen had provoked her, she felt even more that the man had a grudge against her. If she continued to be so submissive, she didn't know how she would be tortured to death in the future.
If that necklace could really keep one's youth forever, she must get her hands on it. Only then would Brother Ye's heart be with her forever.
Momo clenched her fists and said to He Shaochen, "Brother Ye, I must find out the whereabouts of that necklace."
"As long as it's something you want to do, I will support you unconditionally. If you need help, feel free to look for me." He Shaochen's words moved Momo very much.
She found that she was becoming more and more infatuated with this man. He was handsome, rich, powerful, and devoted to her.
How could she not love him?
Momo walked to He Shaochen's side and wrapped her arms around his waist. She leaned against his firm chest and sighed, "Brother Ye, in this world, I can only trust you. So, I must ascend to the throne of the queen. Only then can I be with you forever."
He Shaochen chuckled and calmly separated her. "Your uncle is unreliable, so rely on me. Do as I say, understand?"
Momo's eyes were filled with trust. She nodded as if it was true. "Brother Ye, I'll go back and do as you say."
He smiled and rubbed her head. "You're such a good child."
In this situation, they really didn't know who was the one who had been hypnotized.
Before the necklace could be found, Qiao Qiao's condition had already begun to worsen. That night, she suddenly had difficulty breathing. Fortunately, the nurses were there and called the doctor in time. She was pulled back from the gates of hell.
Ravel and Adam gathered at the door. The doctors were still doing the final check-up on Qiao Qiao.
"At this rate, I'm afraid Lilith won't be able to hold on for three months." Ravel spoke the truth. Even he didn't understand why such a young girl would fall sick so many times. But she was so strong. Even so, she didn't give up the desire to live.
Adam clenched his fists. His eyes were filled with sorrow. He didn't say a word. He just quietly looked at the unconscious Qiao Qiao in the ward.
Ravel sighed and patted Adam's shoulder. "Even so, you have to be optimistic. Lilith definitely doesn't want to see you worry about her. I have a lot of things to do tomorrow. I'll leave first."

Ravel went straight back to the mansion.
The old butler, Wellman, bowed to him. "Welcome back, Your Highness Ravel."
"Mm. Go to sleep if you want, Wellman." Ravel passed his jacket to him and went upstairs. He easily went to Teresa's room. It was still dark.
The bracelet that bound Teresa was gone. In its place was an exquisitely made collar. In the dark, it shone with a red light.
"Lacey, I'm back." Ravel walked in with a smile.
Teresa looked up at Ravel and looked away. She didn't want to talk about whether she was Teresa or Lacey anymore. No matter what she said, this man wouldn't listen.
He just wanted to be comforted.
Ravel was used to Teresa's silence. He walked over and hugged her in his arms. He kissed her earlobe, her slender neck, all the way down, and finally rested his head on her shoulder. He whispered, "Lacey, Lilith's condition has worsened again. Although I seem to be very open-minded on the surface, I'm still a little sad in my heart. She should be my only family in this world. If she's gone, I'll be very lonely.
Although Ravel was sloppy, he valued family very much.
Every day, Ravel would come to find Teresa and tell her the things that were hidden in his heart.
During this time, Teresa also understood another side of Ravel. This man wasn't as sunny as she thought. On the contrary, he was very meticulous. He could notice many things that ordinary people couldn't. Teresa didn't know when it started, but she had already gotten used to Ravel coming to her every night to talk.
Although she didn't admit it, Teresa hadn't rejected Ravel for a long time.
He was a true gentleman and had never touched her.
Although Ravel was very unrestrained in his sexual life, and the number of women he had was enough to form a football field, the funny thing was that this man still maintained a ridiculous traditional view.
He and the person he loved must be married before they could be together.
In Ravel's heart, Lacey was his purest yearning for love, so he wanted to cherish her.
Lacey was really a happy woman.
Teresa thought in her heart.
After Ravel said what he wanted to say, he told her to rest early.
Teresa watched him leave. When the door closed and the last ray of light disappeared, she took out a syringe shaped key from under the blanket and inserted it into the collar. The collar made a sound of verification and fell to the ground.
After so many days of forbearance, it was all to steal the key to unlock the collar on her neck.
Previously, she had tried to escape, but in the end, she was guarded even more strictly. The collar on her neck had a GPS function, and it would explode if she left the mansion for a certain distance. This made her not dare to act rashly. But just yesterday, she finally had a chance to get the key.
Today was the best time to escape from here.
Now that the situation was chaotic, she had to quickly return to the Lord's side.
When Teresa avoided the mansion's guards and arrived outside the fence, she stopped in her tracks and looked in a certain direction of the mansion. Her heart trembled slightly.
If he found out that she was missing tomorrow, would he panic?
No.
The target of his panic would be Lacey, not Teresa.
Teresa shook her head and threw away the unrealistic thoughts in her mind.
