Stolen Life of the Poor Girl, Top Luxury Family's Group Favor

Chapter 244: Don’t Look, You’ll Regret It

Qin Yue\'s fleeting sense of shame quickly subsided.

She was numb. Already numb.

At least Zhang Ruoshui hadn\'t carried her around in front of so many people.

Just then, Gui Wenxin glanced back, observing Xiao Ya\'s skillful wheelchair maneuver, and chuckled, "I didn\'t expect you two to be so close. Were you friends back in China?"

...Of course not, Qin Yue thought.

But she held her tongue, unsure of how Zhang Ruoshui would respond.

"She\'s my foster sister," Xiao Ya said.

Qin Yue was taken aback but quickly realized that wasn\'t entirely incorrect.

Gui Wenxin was also surprised: "Is that so?"

Edith, without looking back, chimed in: "That\'s wonderful. It makes our relationships even closer, doesn\'t it?"

Qin Yue lowered her head thoughtfully, not letting anyone see her expression.

The cruise ship slowly set sail.

The previously silent interior of the ship suddenly lit up, with the violin and piano playing simultaneously.

Light fell, illuminating the dancing girls in the ballroom.

Judging by their stature, they were not very old.

But their attire was quite revealing, and they wore makeup, their dance moves exuding a "charm" that didn\'t match their age.

Qin Yue had frowned the first time she saw them, feeling an intense discomfort.

Then she realized that the new world she had stepped into was somewhat strange.

But it was too late to escape.

Recalling this, Qin Yue couldn\'t help but look back at Xiao Ya.

Xiao Ya\'s expression was calm, almost cold.

Qin Yue thought, compared to the last birthday party, Zhang Ruoshui\'s features had matured even more. When she didn\'t speak, she exuded a certain presence...

Edith suddenly asked, "Have you seen this before? It\'s a very popular show abroad."

Before Xiao Ya could respond, Edith continued, "You probably wouldn\'t be interested in this. It\'s for the guests upstairs."

Upstairs?

Xiao Ya looked up and saw balconies on the second floor, each with a private room behind a one-way glass.

She could only see a layer of fog.

"Have you seen a ladyboy show?" Edith tapped her temple, "Maybe you\'d be more interested in that?"

Xiao Ya had no idea what that was.

She shook her head.

Edith\'s eyes lit up with excitement; she particularly enjoyed bringing newcomers in.

Because each time, she could fully appreciate the expressions on their faces.

Some were shocked to the point of losing color, some cried in fear, and a few were equally excited...

What kind of reaction would you have?

Edith turned to a servant-like person and gave some instructions.

Soon, the performers in the ballroom changed, and the music became more intense.

Qin Yue grabbed Xiao Ya\'s sleeve: "I... don\'t feel well. Can you take me to rest?"

Xiao Ya looked down at her, then suddenly bent down, getting close to Qin Yue\'s face.

Qin Yue breathed a sigh of relief, thinking Zhang Ruoshui was indeed smart.

She whispered in Xiao Ya\'s ear, "Don\'t watch this show, you\'ll regret it..."

Xiao Ya was silent for a moment: "I\'ll take a look, it\'s fine."

Qin Yue was anxious, her brows furrowed, resembling Qin Sui\'s: "Are you here because my brother asked you to? Did he want you to investigate what I\'ve been through?"

"What\'s with the title of Chief Inspector? It won\'t fool anyone. Edith\'s connections are more complex than you imagine. You don\'t understand; it\'s not something that can be resolved with a couple of phone calls."

Xiao Ya placed her hand on Qin Yue\'s shoulder, thinking for a moment, and said, "That\'s exactly why I need to stay and see it clearly."

Qin Yue: "..."

Edith walked up behind Xiao Ya, grabbing her shoulder and turning her around with a smile: "How can you not watch our ballroom? The performance has already started. Come closer."

She pushed Xiao Ya forward.

Qin Yue watched this scene with a thundering heart, her teeth clenched.

As Xiao Ya was pushed to the edge of the ballroom, the music reached its climax.

Two "men" in the ballroom suddenly started fighting each other.

It happened in the blink of an eye.

"Pfft—"

One with a blue feather crown, holding a syringe, stabbed it into the other\'s eye.

The one with the red feather crown, without a sound, only had bulging veins and trembling limbs.

Clearly in pain.

The blue feather crown gripped the syringe with great force, trying to pry out the other\'s eyeball.

—Something flew out.

Blood splattered onto Xiao Ya\'s face.

But the red feather crown still didn\'t cry out. He desperately tugged at the pocket on his waist, eventually pulling out only a banana.

The action was both ridiculous and pitiful.

The next second, he was completely pushed to the ground by the blue feather crown.

The blue feather crown mounted him, pulling out the syringe and stabbing it into his neck again and again.

It seemed harmless, but at this moment, it appeared exceptionally cruel.

The red feather crown could only struggle like a fish unlucky enough to be caught.

"Isn\'t this interesting?" Edith leaned down and asked Xiao Ya by her ear.

She continued slowly, "Before each performance, they draw lots. Those who draw red and blue lots have to perform like this."

"What\'s even more exciting is that they also randomly select weapons. Today, the red one wasn\'t very lucky; he drew a banana."

"This rule was set by her," Edith glanced at Gui Wenxin.

Then she continued, "Doesn\'t this add a lot of drama? The performance becomes very interesting, doesn\'t it? Gui Wenxin is a genius, right?"

Xiao Ya also looked at Gui Wenxin.

The girl immediately smiled at her.

Gui Wenxin\'s confidence lay here; Edith couldn\'t do without her.

If Gui Wenxin had woven her story with Ke Muning in this vein, perhaps it would have been more like the tale of Ke Muning\'s goddaughter?

Qin Yue couldn\'t help but grip Xiao Ya\'s hand at this moment.

Aliali:

Even after seeing it again, she still felt like vomiting.

But... Zhang Ruoshui\'s hand didn\'t tremble.

Edith said half-jokingly, half-surprisedly, "You\'re not satisfied, are you?"

Edith thought for a moment and asked, "How about trying whale hunting? That\'s fun too."

"If you don\'t like this, then there\'s only trying to hunt humans."

"It can satisfy one\'s desire for control. You can clearly feel that in this world, you can control someone else\'s life and even their death. Isn\'t it interesting?"

Edith sighed: "Why are you so quiet?"

She took a glass of wine from a servant\'s tray and handed it to Xiao Ya: "Try this first; you\'ll like the taste."

Xiao Ya smelled it and said, "I don\'t drink anything that\'s been tampered with; it stinks."

Edith\'s smile faded: "You seem to have seen more of the world than I imagined... To be honest, are you here to help Qin Yue?"
