Pregnant After Healing the Alpha

Chapter 699: Chapter 688: Intolerable, No Need to Endure Any Longer

Perhaps because the previous level had been somewhat difficult, this one wasn’t as hard, lowering the difficulty to give them a chance to catch their breath.

Li Yunyun quickly found several clues and pieced together the fragmented scraps of paper to reveal the words on them.

She directly pulled Zhou Yunxiang to her side, deliberately blocking Qiao Jing’s line of sight, refusing to let the other party see.

"Yunxiang, come look with me, is this a fence code?"

Little did she know, Qiao Jing didn’t even need to piece the fragments together; just a glance was enough for her to memorize and mentally assemble the picture, and she had already figured out what the password was.

Zhou Yunxiang glanced at the letters on the pieces, nodding uncertainly.

"It should be."

Upon hearing this, a smile appeared on Li Yunyun’s face. This happened to be the type of code she was very good at solving, something she could crack with ease.

With that thought, she said, "Leave it to me," then pushed Zhou Yunxiang aside and stared at the scraps of paper for about five minutes before she figured out the password.

Li Yunyun went to the door and entered the password. When it showed as correct, she immediately raised her chin proudly, deliberately raising her voice.

"Yunxiang, come quickly, I’ve opened the door!"

After saying that, she purposefully looked toward Qiao Jing, once again lifting her chin.

"Qiao Jing, you started searching for clues earlier than us, yet how could you miss these pieces? And such an easy code you couldn’t even solve. I’m starting to think you were just guessing wildly before!"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yunxiang’s expression changed, and he pulled Li Yunyun aside.

"Yunyun! You can’t talk like that. If it weren’t for Miss Qiao opening the door in the last level, we might have been caught by the npc!"

Li Yunyun did not take Zhou Yunxiang’s words to heart at all. All she knew was that she was the one who opened the door to this level, and she was brimming with pride.

"Zhou Yunxiang, keep defending Qiao Jing if you dare! She came in earlier than us, couldn’t find even a single fragment, and couldn’t solve such an easy code. What use is such a teammate?"

Now that she finally had the chance to gloat, she was definitely going to hold onto this point to mock Qiao Jing!

Qiao Jing raised her finely-arched eyebrows slightly, laughing with a snort.

"Yes, such a simple code."

She didn’t solve the code because she wanted to leave some game experience for these two, not to give Li Yunyun a chance to mock her.

Once or twice was still fine; she could ignore it. But now it was the third or even more times, and she wouldn’t tolerate it any longer.

As for their game experience, that was none of her business anymore.

When Li Yunyun heard Qiao Jing repeating her words, she was startled for a moment, not immediately catching the meaning in Qiao Jing’s tone.

"What do you mean by that?"

Qiao Jing didn’t bother with Li Yunyun and directly went on to the next level.

After Qiao Jing had left, Li Yunyun finally realized that Qiao Jing had been mocking her for only being able to solve such a simple code!

She clenched her fist and hurried into the next room, determined to find clues and unlock the door again, eager to prove Qiao Jing wrong!

Zhou Yunxiang frowned and sighed.

"Yunyun, let’s just focus on playing the game."

He almost felt like he wasn’t playing an escape room game, but The Legend of Zhen Huan instead.

Fortunately, Qiao Jing wasn’t the type to quibble over every little thing with Yunyun, otherwise, they wouldn’t have been able to play the game at all, just arguing instead.

Li Yunyun "hmphed" and started looking for clues.

She soon discovered a bottle containing a note. Recalling that Qiao Jing had also looked at this bottle earlier but hadn’t found the clue inside.

Li Yunyun rolled her eyes at Qiao Jing’s retreating back, directly pulling out the note from the bottle and deliberately said loudly:

"There’s a clue here!"

She knew that in the second level, it had been mere luck and Qiao Jing’s expertise that had won the round. Now it was her turn to be the most useful.

Zhou Yunxiang’s eyes lit up when he saw Li Yunyun so quickly find a clue, and he hurried to her side.

"Let me see, what is it?"

Qiao Jing didn’t even glance at Li Yunyun and her group. She went straight to the coded door, raising her hand to start entering the password. noveldrama

From now on, she wouldn’t care whether Li Yunyun and her group had a sense of game experience or not. After knowing what the password was, she would open the door directly.

As for whether those two wanted to keep up or not, it was none of her business. What she wanted was to solve the puzzles and get out.

When Li Yunyun saw Qiao Jing entering the password, she disdainfully said:

"Qiao Jing, are you planning to give up and smash the pot? You want to open the door without finding a single clue? I advise you not to enter the password randomly, otherwise, if the password is wrong, there will be a punishment—"

She didn’t finish her sentence when the door opened with a "click," showing the password was correct!

Li Yunyun was dumbfounded. They had just found one clue, and Qiao Jing had already opened the door?

Didn’t the words she just said not only fail to slap Qiao Jing’s face, but instead slap her own face?

Before she could figure it out, Qiao Jing had already moved on to the next challenge.

Zhou Yunxiang also stared blankly, looking incredulously at Qiao Jing’s departing figure.

There wasn’t time for him to understand because from somewhere came heavy footsteps and the sound of knocking on a door.

In an instant, he realized that the upcoming challenges might involve NPCs, setting up a scene of a chase where they were unable to escape even with wings.

With this thought, he pulled Li Yunyun into the next challenge.

"Yunyun, we need to go."

But what followed was, Zhou Yunxiang had barely arrived at the next room with Li Yunyun, or had just found the first clue, and Qiao Jing had already placed various other clues on the table and opened the door.

In the meantime, some NPCs joined in, but by following behind Qiao Jing, they managed to evade their pursuit.

Before long, they had left the escape room and returned to the original hall.

When Qiao Jing came out, she saw at first glance that Zhan Qipei was sitting on the sofa with a gloomy face.

On the other side of the sofa sat two young men who were somewhat trembling due to the man’s aura.

Seeing Qiao Jing’s figure, Zhan Qipei’s dark pupils brightened and he quickly came to the woman’s side.

"Why did it take you so long to come out?"

After entering and realizing that his team did not include Qiao Jing, he lost the mood to keep playing and directly and swiftly solved all the puzzles, achieving a rapid clearance.

Qiao Jing pursed her red lips and looked up at Zhou Yunxiang and his group.

"Waiting for teammates."

She truly hadn’t expected that Zhan Qipei would come out faster than her.

But upon further thought, she could somewhat guess that Zhan Qipei probably hadn’t cared about the game experience of the two young men and just quickly cleared his way out directly.

Zhan Qipei glanced at Zhou Yunxiang and the other person, gathered his brows that were heavy as mountains and misty as fog, and then turned to look at Qiao Jing.

"Did they slow you down?"

Qiao Jing didn’t say a word, but took off the nurse’s uniform she was wearing and returned it to the staff.

At this moment, Zhou Yunxiang was still somewhat in shock.

He had played many escape rooms, but it was his first time experiencing this theme, and the difficulty of this place was much higher than any he had played before. He even doubted if he could have passed the challenges.

Yet Qiao Jing had effortlessly solved the puzzles after just a few glances at the clues, and along the way, she had led them to avoid several NPCs.

He had encountered a true master! Moreover, he experienced the feeling of being swiftly carried through the challenges.

Thinking this, Zhou Yunxiang’s eyes turned even more admiring when he looked at Qiao Jing.
