He Jing unconsciously clenched her fist. A slasher’s smile crossed her lips, “Now, wouldn’t you like to know?”
Yan Hanxi was speechless.
Ah! It was such a shame. It seemed he had no intention of pursuing the matter.
He Jing lost interest. She could not be bothered to deal with Yan Hanxi at the moment. Instead, she contacted He Zhou. She had already uncovered the answer.
Soon, the call went through. He Zhou’s frigid voice sounded from the other end of the line.
“Third Brother, it’s me.” He Jing took a deep breath and got straight to the point.
He Zhou did not expect He Jing to be the one to exchange clues with him. He fell into a short silence. “You only have one chance to contact other team members. Are you confident I’ll tell you what I know?” He Zhou was as blunt as usual.
The response did not annoy He Jing at all. “Is Xiaoguo alright?” she asked.
“He is.”
“I’m glad.”
It was the same thing He Jing could do to him. After all, no one could complete this challenge without a concerted team effort.
Shortly after, he passed on the clues he had discovered. It was a mixed bag of truths and falsehoods. Still, he threw her a bone by warning her about them. “I have four clues. Two will lead you on, while the rest will not. It’s up to you to judge for yourself which is which.”
He Jing did not need to make a judgment call. When He Zhou revealed what he knew, it was more than enough to confirm her initial thoughts. She was sure she knew the right way to escape.
Unlike He Zhou. however. He Ting shared what she knew without hidden tricks. saying, “Thank you, Third Brother.”
Her words sounded calmly in He Zhou’s ears.
He Zhou grew exceedingly dissatisfied with He Jing. Why did she always act like she was in complete control of the situation? She must have called him to gloat, praising his cooking like that. It was simply humiliating…
“He Jing, I will always treat Xiao Yi as my sister. No matter what you do, I will never accept you. I hope you won’t do such a stupid thing again. Don’t say I didn’t warn you. Just because I’ve helped you this once doesn’t mean I’ll do it again in the future.
He Jing did not know what to say; He Zhou’s words had caught her flat-footed.
Barely able to conceal the hint of joy, she cried, “Really? I can’t wait for Third Brother to treat me as his younger sister.”
“You…”
He Zhou was so angry he nearly screamed in rage. He was about to hang up on her when her voice drifted into his ears.
“Third Brother, I have many things, but a worthwhile opponent isn’t among them. It’s been a long time since I’ve had the pleasure to trounce someone so completely. Thank you, Third Brother, for reigniting my passion..”
