Chapter 1289 Washing hands in a golden basin
"Is it the handsome old guy who took me to the manor..." Kelly raised an eyebrow and asked with a smile.
Xia Chuqi was amused by her description and couldn't help but laugh: "He is not too old, but he is indeed a handsome guy. He is very gentlemanly and has a reliable job. He is very strict and trustworthy!"
"He is indeed very good..." Kelly nodded slightly, smiled and praised: "To be precise, all the subordinates Feng Xun used are very skillful. They are worthy of being the heirs of the Feng family, and it is not in vain that my mentor saved his life back then!"
Xia Chuqi responded softly, and heard her mention her mother together, and then slowly said, "Kelly, you should know why we took you here. Members of the Crusaders are also here today, and talk to us about my mother..."
Kelly waved her hand and stopped her from talking, saying in a deep voice: "Of course I understand that Feng Xun contacted Mr. Bai before, and it was also the phone number I gave him! In fact, if Feng Xun didn't say it, I also knew that they would come to visit you!"
"So even if you quit the Rose Cross, you will keep in touch with them?" Xia Chuqi asked tentatively.
Kelly shook her head and replied in a faint tone: "I only keep in touch with Mr. Bai. As for the others, I have never contacted them. I have never met them in the past few years since I quit!"
Xia Chuqi nodded in a clear understanding, not surprised by her answer, and sighed in a low voice: "I don't know them, but this time I was on Pedro's side and was rescued by them desperately. I think they should be like you, all excellent soldiers. They are just a blonde woman who is good at disguise. She was shot and almost died in order to save me. She is still lying in the hospital. I feel very guilty..."
"You don't have to feel guilty. Your mother saved these people more than once. If they don't save you, they will be dissatisfied!"
Kelly shrugged indifferently and said with a sneer, she didn't seem to have a good attitude towards these members who were once teammates with her!
"Maybe, but I think they can come to save me desperately, and this kindness will be repaid!" Xia Chuqi smiled slightly and whispered: "After all, not everyone can repay the kindness, not to mention that my mother has passed away for many years..."
"If it weren't for this, I wouldn't have been here to meet them!" Kelly snorted and said coldly: "They are a group of cowards. When my mentor had an accident, they all knew there was something wrong, but they didn't dare to quit like me and thoroughly find out the truth behind it!"
If it weren't for this time, they finally found out with conscience that the daughter of the master might not have forgiven these former comrades in the whole life!
Xia Chuqi was silent for a moment and said with a wry smile: "I can't blame them. After all, if you withdraw from this organization, it is equivalent to betrayal, and you will be chased by the Rose Cross for life. Not everyone has the courage of Kelly! The truth about your mother's death, I, as a daughter, will find out!"
"After I quit that year, I wanted to find out, but I was so nervous that I was chased, so the clue was interrupted..." Kelly frowned, and she couldn't help but feel a little upset when she mentioned this.
Xia Chuqi patted the back of her hand and smiled and comforted: "Kelly, I am very grateful that you can do this. In fact, this time I met Morgan in Pedro's territory and learned something from Morgan. He told me that the senior officials involved in the internal strife behind the death of his mother actually had a confidential document, which contained a list of senior officials involved!"
"Is that right? I don't know about this!" Kelly shook her head and asked in a deep voice: "Isn't that Morgan lie to you, right?"
"Using his situation at that time, there is no reason to lie to me!" Xia Chuqi said this, sighed softly, and said regretfully: "It's a pity that he was beaten to death before I asked clearly from him!"
"People like Morgan deserve to die!" Kelly snorted coldly, and when she mentioned Morgan, she was a little angry: "I heard that he is the president of the branch. People who climb up with such unyielding means can also become the president of the branch. I think the Rose Cross is not far from being ruined!"
"Maybe since the time my mother was killed, she was destined to be shaky..." Xia Chuqi nodded and held her chin and said helplessly: "Actually, it's good to have a big cleaning, but I'm not interested! He encouraged me to join in all kinds of ways, but I didn't agree. Unexpectedly, I was forced to become one of them now. It's ridiculous!"
Kelly also learned from Feng Xun that Xia Chuqi had made a deal with Morgan in order to save him. She couldn't help but say guiltily: "I'm sorry, I hurt you! Actually, you shouldn't have saved me!"
The reason why she appeared was that she didn't want her mentor's daughter to join the Rose Cross, but she didn't expect that because of her, her mentor's daughter was involved again!
"Kelly, this is not your fault. You don't need to apologize to me. I voluntarily save you. If you didn't show up at the beginning, you wouldn't be targeted by Morgan's people. Speaking of which, you were arrested for me!"
Xia Chuqi shook his head and smiled lightly, comforting in a sincere tone: "If you want to blame, just blame Morgan for being too treacherous and vicious. He caught you and threatened me, but he was still working with Feng Yan behind his back to let Feng Yan's people capture me!"
"If he wasn't dead, I would have to count this account on him and wouldn't let him live a better life!" A cold light flashed in Kelly's eyes. She had never been so embarrassed in her life, but was tortured by Morgan and even lost a finger.
Xia Chuqi lowered her head and saw her bandaged fingers. She remembered the photos and videos Morgan sent to herself before. She suddenly shook her heart and said hesitantly: "Kelly, your fingers..."
She didn't know how to comfort her, but fortunately, Kelly looked calm and probably had accepted this fact.
"It's nothing, just half a finger, it won't affect anything!" Kelly chuckled, stroked her hand, and said in a faint tone: "At worst, I'll wash my hands from now on, and retire and retire!"
"It's nothing if you don't become a bounty hunter. That job is too dangerous after all!" Xia Chuqi comforted her with a smile, and suggested: "If you don't mind, you might as well mess with me and Feng Xun. Maybe you may not be as high as your bounty hunter. But you will try your best to give you a satisfactory salary, as long as you are willing!"
Kelly was also amused by her invitation, raised her eyebrows and smiled, "Is that right? If you really want to take me, a useless person, I certainly don't mind. Just be your personal bodyguard!"
