Chapter 2491 — Unmoved
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 2
Naturally, Yang Qiqi did not know that Wei Zhao was doing this on purpose, nor did it occur to her to connect the man before her with the Wei Zhao and Ling Yi she had encountered before.
Wei Zhao said nothing more, turned, and walked into the bathroom. Then he locked the door and actually did take off his clothes and start showering.
Yang Qiqi heard the sound of running water from inside the bathroom and was overjoyed. She waited a while, and once she was certain Wei Zhao really was showering, she hurried to Wei Zhao's backpack, opened it, and began rummaging through it.
The Blue Crystal was right there in Wei Zhao's backpack, not hidden at all, so the moment she opened it, it met Yang Qiqi's eyes. Her hands trembling with excitement, she carefully and swiftly stole the Blue Crystal out of Wei Zhao's backpack!
Her heart was pounding. Though she had killed before, she had no experience in stealing. Carefully, Yang Qiqi restored Wei Zhao's backpack to its former state, then drew a deep breath and quickly slipped the Blue Crystal into her clothes pocket. She dared not flaunt it in her hand—if someone saw it again and covetous thoughts arose, she would be the one to suffer.
That done, Yang Qiqi cautiously made her way toward the door...
After returning to her room, Yu Xiaoke tidied up a bit and then thought of going to Wei Zhao's room. But who would have guessed that the moment she opened her door, she saw Yang Qiqi slip into Wei Zhao's room? Frustrated, Yu Xiaoke also cursed Yang Qiqi inwardly for being shameless—a true disgrace to the Thieves' Gate, having to sacrifice her charms just to steal something. How humiliating!
Yu Xiaoke did not go knock on the door right away to interrupt, because she did not know Wei Zhao's purpose and feared her appearance might disrupt his plan. So she simply waited in the corridor for Yang Qiqi to come out—and if Yang Qiqi succeeded, she would just help steal the thing back afterward.
To Yu Xiaoke's relief, not long after Yang Qiqi entered the room, the door opened and she tiptoed out...
Although Yu Xiaoke knew Wei Zhao probably had some purpose in mind, if he really did something with Yang Qiqi, she would be very unhappy. It was not that she was petty—this was only natural, and with a girl of such poor character as Yang Qiqi, Yu Xiaoke was all the more displeased.
If anything was going to happen, it should be with a thief of her own caliber, shouldn't it?
And Yang Qiqi had come out not long after going in—clearly there had been no time for anything to happen.
