He had always observed Xiao Qiao in silence. In the games, she showed an inevitably chivalrous character.
She would always fight for justice, and had a straightforward and candid personality.
She bore no grudges and would never stab people in the back.
She would even generously share her gaming techniques and knowledge with those who asked.
He didn’t know her too well.
After all, they had only met online.
But at that time, Xiao Qiao had been like a big sister, guiding him as he entered the amazing world of gaming.
Hence, Su Penghao was exceptionally tolerant towards Purple Fairy.
After speaking, he looked at Purple Fairy again and said calmly, “Can you tell me then who among us leaked the information?”
Purple Fairy’s expression was vague.
Her boss had said that, no matter what the price was, they had to come in champions.
But she had seen her boss with Qiao Lian a few times.
If her boss found out that Qiao Lian was working for CQ Team and was responsible for logistics, then would he favour CQ Team?
She hung her head and replied, “Actually our boss Mr. Sun knows one of the staff members of CQ.”
“Who?” Su Penghao asked anxiously.
Purple Fairy smiled and replied, “I only know her surname is Qiao, but who exactly, I don’t have a clue.”
Su Penghao was stunned when he heard this.
“Surname Qiao?”
Purple Fairy nodded. “That’s all I know.”
Switching the topic, she said, “Zombie Leader, your manoeuvring during the match today was really smooth…”
When Qiao Lian finally located them, she saw that Purple Fairy and Su Penghao were talking happily.
Qiao Lian immediately twitched her lips.
This Su Penghao, he never learns!
She caught up to them and interrupted, “Hey, Zombie Leader, are you coming now? Everyone’s waiting for you!”
Purple Fairy glanced at her and immediately looked away.
Su Penghao frowned impatiently and said, “I’m coming now!”
His gaze fell on Qiao Lian and lingered for a while, remembering Purple Fairy’s remarks. A look of suspicion spread across his face.
But Ancestor White Bones’ words also echoed in his mind.
For sure, Qiao Lian was not too bad at gaming.
But if she had been the one who leaked the information, Shen Liangchuan would not be so protective of her.
He was sure that there must have been some misunderstanding somewhere.
At this thought, he pushed all suspicions to the back of his mind and followed Qiao Lian.
Qiao Lian turned to shoot a glance at Purple Fairy. As she did so, she saw Purple Fairy staring back at the two of them with a scheming expression on her face.
She narrowed her eyes.
As she turned around the corner, still looking at Purple Fairy, she walked right into someone.
The impact caused her to take a few steps back to steady herself.
She turned to look at the person she had ran into. He was in his early thirties and wore a suit that made him look rather mature. The man smiled at her and said, “Are you okay?”
As Qiao Lian looked at the man’s face and registered his features, she frowned slightly.
Why did he look so familiar?
As she tried to think where she had seen him before, he looked like he was in a hurry. He peered into the distance and nodded at Qiao Lian. “If you’re okay, I have to run now.”
Then he walked past her and hurried towards Purple Fairy.
But when he walked past, Qiao Lian’s eyes suddenly lit up with a flash of realization. She remembered who he was!
Years ago, when she gamed with Zi Chuan, they had joined a compet.i.tive team and this man had been the leader of that team.
