Chapter 178: Strange Disease_1

"Am I the person you want to protect?"

These words from Zhao Wenqi left Xiao Qiang stunned.

They had known each other for a while, but this was the first time Xiao Qiang had heard such a direct question from Zhao Wenqi, essentially a confession.

Hesitating for a moment, Xiao Qiang quietly said, "Of course, you are someone close to me."

He didn't know how to answer Zhao Wenqi, so he could only say these words.

Zhao Wenqi didn't say anything more. She felt a little disappointed, but also somewhat happy, after all, Xiao Qiang had counted her among those he was close to.

"You should go back and rest, I have to leave now," Xiao Qiang thought for a moment and said to Zhao Wenqi.

Zhao Wenqi was taken aback: "Aren't you going to see Little Yu and the others?"

Xiao Qiang shook his head lightly: "Better not, seeing them would only complicate things. You can pass the message on to them."
