The male protagonist of a sweet romance novel went on a killing spree in the world of angst novels.

Yan Ting raised her eyes and stared intently at the man in front of her. Her voice, as clear as pearls, was deep and cold as she said, "He and I are not lovers."

Qi Yang raised his long legs and crossed them on the coffee table. After hearing Yan Ting's words, he gave a cold sneer.

"If you weren't lovers, do you think you could have escaped those three men that night at the Golden Splendor Hotel if it weren't for his appearance?" Although Chen Xiao hacked the hotel's security cameras that night, he still discovered Xu Rou's plan to drug Yan Ting.

As the heir of the Qi family, he was no fool.

Sometimes, you can deduce the general process of an event just by looking at a tiny clue.

That's why Qi Yang was so certain that Yan Ting and that guy were having an affair.

Upon hearing this, Yan Ting was stunned.

It was only then that she realized what had happened.

So the person who was watched over at the hotel all night and who even cooked for her in the morning was actually Chen Xiao?

This left Yanting somewhat incredulous.

I really can't understand it.

She and Chen Xiao were complete strangers before that, so why did he do that?

There was no record of Chen Xiao in Yan Ting's memory.

If you've truly seen it, you can't possibly forget it.

After all, she could never forget Chen Xiao's exceptionally handsome face, even if she had another fifty years.

After sending the message, Qi Yang casually tossed Yan Ting's phone onto the coffee table.

The next second, there was a cracking sound.

The lighter with gears was slid down by the thumb, and a flame suddenly appeared, igniting the cigarette.

Yan Ting inadvertently noticed a tattoo on the web of his hand, which looked like a skull and perfectly matched the violent aura emanating from him.

"Do you know where this is?" Qi Yang asked, a cigarette dangling from his lips, as he turned to look at the fiercely contested ring match downstairs.

Yanting followed his gaze.

Because she was on the second-floor stands, she could see the bloody and violent scenes below more clearly.

A large crowd of spectators had gathered around the ring, and upon closer inspection, their expressions were invariably excited, enthusiastic, and even fascinated.

Not a gambler, but better than a gambler.

This sentence suddenly popped into Yanting's mind.

She pursed her lips and did not answer Qi Yang's question.

Qi Yang didn't seem to need her answer. Although his expression was lazy, the violent tendencies in his bones were gradually boiling as the competition intensified.

"This is a death arena." Qi Yang flicked his cigarette ash, his deep voice revealing a hint of cold cruelty: "Before entering this arena, you must sign a life-or-death contract. Once signed, you will either walk off the arena or be carried off by others."

"If Miss Yan goes up, I think this competition will be very exciting."

Women rarely participate in these life-or-death arenas.

After all, the risks are too great. One wrong move and you could very well lose your life in the ring, and in a very undignified way.

However, in many people's eyes, women's competitions are actually more entertaining.

Imagine a ferocious beast slowly but surely slaughtering and devouring its beautiful prey; the scene must be incredibly beautiful. The extreme contrast between fragility and violence would ignite the desire and fascination in the audience.

Upon hearing this, Yan Ting felt an overwhelming nausea and vomiting.

It was her first time experiencing such a scene, so it was impossible for her not to feel any fear.

Qi Yang leaned forward and stubbed out the nearly burnt-out cigarette in the ashtray.

"Let's make a bet and see whether your fiancé or your lover arrives first."

In Yanting's eyes, the man's smile was wicked.

Yanting's disappearance went unnoticed by anyone.

The main reason was that the cruise ship was too big, and they naturally assumed that even if the person wasn't in the bedroom, they must be somewhere on the cruise ship.

No need to worry at all.

His eyes darkened immediately after he received a text message.

Qi Yang is actually on this cruise ship?

"What?" Sheng Yuanze held a cigarette between two fingers, looking at Lu Huai with a questioning gaze through the thin smoke.

Lu Huai handed the phone screen to Sheng Yuanze.

Sheng Yuanze took it and looked at it.

After reading the information above, he raised an eyebrow and asked with a slightly surprised tone, "Where did your fiancée offend Qi Yang?"

After all, Qi Yang is a madman.

Once you get involved, it's not easy to get away.

Yan Xun suddenly pushed open the office door and came in.

His usual carefree smile was gone, replaced by a look of anxiety.

"Brother Huai".

"Sister Qiu is missing."

***

Under the blazing sun, the vast sea shimmered with light, and a group of people stood on the deck gazing into the distance.

Some even wore binoculars to watch, while others wore swimsuits and rode in the boats to play in the water, and still others rode jet skis freely on the sea.

at this time.

Someone suddenly exclaimed in surprise.

"Look, there's a cruise ship heading this way."

As soon as these words came out.

Immediately, many people's eyes fell on the cruise ship.

Suddenly, a huge, beautifully decorated, and luxurious cruise ship began to approach the cruise ship in front of them.

The sight of two equally luxurious cruise ships appearing simultaneously in the same sea area was truly breathtaking.

After all, this is a cruise ship!

But wasn't this sea area contracted out to the Lu family?

Generally speaking, only one cruise ship can cruise in a given sea area.

Therefore, the appearance of this cruise ship attracted the attention of the cruise ship organizers.

They assumed the cruise ship belonged to the organizer, but little did they know it was actually privately owned property.

And this person was none other than Chen Xiao.

The system will never forget how awestruck it was when it saw this luxury cruise ship.

So its host is really rich?

No, is it reasonable for an ordinary passerby like you to be so extravagant?

Unlike the cruise ship that the male protagonist chartered, there weren't many people on this cruise ship besides the waiters, cleaning ladies, and staff.

After receiving a WeChat message, a deep, unfathomable darkness flashed across Chen Xiao's dark eyes, and his handsome features remained eerily calm.

The sea breeze tousled his pink hair, and Chen Xiao narrowed his delicate phoenix eyes. Standing on the deck, facing the sunlight and sea breeze, he decisively took out his phone and made a call.

The voice on the phone was neither male nor female, but it was extremely respectful: "Chen Meng, what are your orders?"

Chen Xiao pinched his brow with his pale, cold fingers. His voice, no longer as casual as before, became cold and stern as he said, "Connect cruise ship No. 71 with cruise ship No. 11 via a passageway."

After hearing something said on the other end of the phone, the young man chuckled and said, "Unwilling?"

"If you don't want to, then go die."

The arrogance and swagger are unspeakable in those six simple words.

This was Chen Xiao, the young master of the capital city, always maintained this style before he transmigrated.

The system had good reason to suspect that if anything happened to the female protagonist, its host might even blow up the entire cruise ship.

Including Qi Yang.
