Chapter 906  : Xiao Qiao, Where Are You? (5)

Soul Fighter died in an accident. Song Yuanxi had always thought that the accident had happened because Shen Liangchuan and Soul Fighter were raising money to pay off the penalty incurred by Qiao Lian. For this reason, she had taken it out on Qiao Lian.

But there was something that Shen Liangchuan knew, which he had never told Song Yuanxi.

At the time, Qiao Lian had suddenly withdrawn from the team club.

After he got over his depression, he and Soul Fighter decided to go ahead and form a team anyway.

However, the people from the team club demanded for a large penalty because of Xiao Qiao’s withdrawal.

thousand.

In the past, that money would have been nothing to Shen Liangchuan.

But because they had left the Shen family and were on their own, they could barely scrape by. That amount of money was impossible to get.

What sort of work could get him 200 thousand just like that?

At that time, both he and Soul Fighter were poor.

It was under these circumstances that Xiao Qiao sent him a message in the Lot chat out of the blue:

[Xiao Qiao: Zi Chuan, could you return me the 100 thousand that I gave you? I need it for an emergency.]

The 100 thousand that she had given him.

That was the money she had given to him for renting a space, and for taking care of all sorts of business matters before the team club had been established.

Hence at this point, Shen Liangchuan could no longer bring himself to ask her for the 200 thousand.

If she said that she needed the money for an urgent matter, then it must have been something really urgent.

So in the end, he had told Soul Fighter that they would settle the money issue themselves.

There were very few ways of making so much money in a short time.

Just around the same time, there was a gamer who wished to have a specific build and skin set for a particular game.

This build required the player to pass a certain level in the game.

So he and Soul Fighter were glued to the internet for a whole week, just so that they could pass the level for the build set. Then, they sold this build to pay for the penalty.

Finally…

As the were walking out after that gaming session…

He did not notice the approaching car, so he was pushed out of the way by Soul Fighter.

After Soul Fighter was hit, he was taken to the hospital.

At first, the doctors only examined him and things looked fine.

There was a pain in his chest but he took it lightly, and even joked about it.

Later on… he recalled that it was the day he had arranged to meet with Xiao Qiao.

Hence, he had made an excuse to leave the hospital and meet with Xiao Qiao.

But at that time, unexpectedly, he overheard Xiao Qiao talking on the phone.

She was talking to her best friend, saying something about a bag that had cost 100 thousand. She had bought it without thinking twice.

So it turned out that the 100 thousand that she needed urgently had been to purchase of a bag?

Ultimately, she had no idea that because of this bag, his friend was lying on a hospital bed.

And he himself had had a narrow escape.

The moment he was standing there, trying to make peace with himself, Song Yuanxi sent him a message. Soul Fighter had suddenly gone into critical condition.

He left the cafe and headed quickly back towards the hospital.

They weren’t able to save Soul Fighter. He died.

After everything that had happened, Song Yuanxi had maintained that it was Qiao Lian who killed her brother.

Shen Liangchuan never had a counter-argument for this.

Soul Fighter had died to save his life.

They had both been in that situation because of the 200 thousand.

Right at the bottom of this was the fact that Qiao Lian had withdrawn from the team club with no explanation, the fact that it had been to buy an expensive bag.

Shen Liangchuan hung his head at these thoughts.

He knew that Qiao Lian was innocent.

She had not caused Soul Fighter’s death directly.

But he couldn’t stop thinking about it.

He had never dared to tell Qiao Lian the truth, because he was afraid that she wouldn’t be able to deal with the pain and guilt.

For the last eight years, she had had a hard life. Surely, she would have come to understand how much 100 thousand had meant to them eight years ago.
