If she stayed, wouldn't that mean letting the cat out of the bag at the Lu family's main villa?
At the thought of this, Qiao Yiyi gave her usual answer, "It's ok, I have somewhere to stay at."
Then she walked to the door.
Lu Nanze: …
He would have tried to talk her around, but he knew Traceless well enough. She wasn't one to go back on her word, so if she said she wasn't staying, she wouldn't.
But suddenly recalling something as Traceless neared the doorway, he asked, "Why are you here, by the way?"
With a casual wave of her hand, she said, "To retrieve my merchandise."
Since she had the gemstone with her now, it didn't matter if she told him the truth.
But as soon as she had said this, the man turned pale. He rushed towards her, but she quickly dashed into the courtyard.
He panicked wildly.
Darn!
Why had he forgotten to tell the girl?
The new owner of the item could no longer be trusted.
