Smiling Tiger looked at Qiao Lian with a hopeful expression.
Qiao Lian suddenly burst out laughing when she saw how sorry he looked.
She recalled how terrible she had felt when he was poached.
And at that time, his decisiveness had cut her like a knife.
Now it seemed they had reversed their roles.
Qiao Lian looked at him and asked, “Who’s going to pay for the breach of contract fee if you left now?”
Upon hearing this, Smiling Tiger immediately answered, “The penalty is actually only 100,000. It wouldn’t be too much for CQ to pay!”
Qiao Lian raised an eyebrow. “100,000? But why would CQ pay the penalty for a person who once betrayed our team?”
Smiling Tiger was stumped by her question.
Qiao Lian continued, “Now that you’ve realized Purple Fairy is not Xiao Qiao, you wish to return. So in the future, if some other team’s coach happens to be your idol, will you run away and join them too?”
Smiling Tiger froze.
Qiao Lian pointed at the team behind her and said, “You see these people here? At that time, Purple Fairy not only poached you. She tried to poach them too. But no one left except you.”
She looked at him intently. “What CQ wants is a united team and not someone who is easily persuaded to leave.”
Seeing that Qiao Lian was firm and decisive, Smiling Tiger turned to glance at The Godfather and The Deputy Godfather, and their injured hands.
After a pause, he said, “But aren’t you afraid of losing the match next week, if their hands have not recovered by then?”
Qiao Lian pursed her lips and shook her head after a short pause. “We would rather lose than have a team member who doesn’t qualify! Even if we lose, we always have the opportunity to start again from scratch.”
On this note, she turned and started to walk away.
At this point, she heard Smiling Tiger shouting, “Ancestor White Bones, aren’t you going to help me?!”
Qiao Lian paused and looked at Ancestor White Bones.
Ancestor White Bones used to look quite haggard, however during the time with the team, Qiao Lian had put a stop to bad practices like staying until late at night. Hence, she had also somewhat plumped.
Ancestor White Bones turned to Smiling Tiger at this question and replied, “The moment you left the fighting team, I decided I’d no longer speak up for you.”
Smiling Tiger bit his lip, obviously upset. “White Bones! Don’t you want us to be together every day?”
Ancestor White Bones shook her head and said resolutely, “We already broke up.”
The implication of that remark surprised Qiao Lian greatly.
She looked at Ancestor White Bones questioningly. “You- you two were together?”
Ancestor White Bones glanced at Qiao Lian and nodded in confirmation.
Qiao Lian was stunned by this discovery.
“But not anymore. We broke up.”
Qiao Lian nodded to show she understood.
The six of them got in line and into the car. The car then drove away, leaving Smiling Tiger behind by himself. He clenched his fists tightly.
After a pause, he took in a deep breath and said, “One day you will come begging me to join your competitive team!”
As though suddenly recalling something, he picked up his cell phone and dialed a number...

Qiao Lian took the team members to the villa, before asking the driver to drive her back to the villa.
She looked at the time and guessed that Shen Liangchuan should be home by now.
However upon arrival, she realized he was not back yet. And even Xia Yehua was not home.
Raising an eyebrow in slight surprise, she asked Auntie Li, “Where are Sir and Senior Madam?”
Auntie Li answered, “Sir said he has a meeting and won’t be back tonight. Senior Madam... has gone to see Ms. Song.”
Qiao Lian was slightly surprised and asked after a pause, “Which rehab home is Song Yuanxi in?”
