'Tao Quan took a bullet for me.'
"Why?"
It was An Ning's question, and Jiang Xia's as well.
When Jiang Xia visited the hospital, he had asked Tao Quan, but Tao Quan had only smiled mysteriously, not saying a single word.
An Ning's head ached.
'This Tao Quan... I can never understand his motives or his goals. This feeling of powerlessness is goddammit frustrating!'
"Let's focus on the competition. I'll get to the bottom of this when we get back."
"Okay."
An Ning and Jiang Xia said no more. They boarded the bus and rested with their eyes closed, arriving safely at the competition venue after an uneventful trip.
As everyone stepped off the bus and stood before the entrance, they were filled with rage.
'So *this* is the kind of hotel the other teams are staying in.'
A high-rise of over twenty stories, with transparent glass, a modern design, a clean environment, and secure protection.
And them?
Their rooms weren't even as large as a single bathroom here.
