Yun ngyao rushed up to the second floor, stord into her room, then lifted her bedding and let out a sigh of relief—thank goodness, the money was still there.
Qin Yi could be quite the gentleman at tis. Yun ngyao thought to herself as she picked up her money pouch, listening to the clinking of gold coins inside, and her eyes curved into crescent moons with her smile.
"I've beco a rich lady now! Once I leave here, I'm going to buy loads of pretty clothes and delicious food, hehe..."
Yun ngyao bead with delight, feeling so content, and subconsciously reached into the money pouch to take out two gold coins to play with. Suddenly, she froze, as the texture felt wrong. Her expression changed, and upon looking inside, her smile instantly froze on her face.
The entire pouch full of gold coins had turned into stones.
"Ah!" Yun ngyao let out a heartrending howl.
Then, clutching the money pouch, she dashed out of her room, went straight to Qin Yi's doorstep, and burst in.
"Qin Yi, you bastard."
Yun ngyao saw Qin Yi lounging in a wicker recliner by the window, eyes half-closed, swaying leisurely. Imdiately infuriated, she rushed over and kicked Qin Yi's leg fiercely.
Qin Yi slowly opened his eyes, looking dazed as if he just woke up, frowned and said, "Miss Yun, what's gotten into you?"
Yun ngyao tossed the pouch filled with stones to Qin Yi, saying, "Qin Yi, I'm giving you three minutes to return my gold coins, or else you're gonna regret it."
Qin Yi caught the pouch, opened it, couldn't help but laugh, "Miss Yun, are you going crazy over money? Using stones to swap for my cash, how does that work?"
"Stop playing dumb; my pouch full of money turned into stones. If you didn't do it, then who did? I worked hard for that money—you can't treat like this."
Qin Yi looked aggrieved, "Miss Yun, your skill in accusing others is truly refined. Which eye of yours saw turn your gold coins into stones?"
"It's you! Who else could think up such a dastardly sche?"
"Hey, is my character that worthless to you?"
"Two thousand gold coins are quite valuable."
Qin Yi: "..."
"Anyway, I didn't take your money. Go find soone else if you must; just don't disturb my nap."
Yun ngyao circled behind Qin Yi, suddenly wrapped an arm around his neck, and mindlessly rummaging him all over.
"Hey, this is too much! n and won should keep their distance. Are you seriously taking advantage of ?" Due to their position, Qin Yi's head ended up on Yun ngyao's chest, and it felt way softer than a pillow, but he dared not indulge—if Yun ngyao noticed, she would fight him tooth and nail.
Even though Yun ngyao unwittingly caused this, it wasn't like he intended to take advantage. But arguing with won was just futile.
"Tell , where did you hide the money?"
Qin Yi looked utterly wronged, "I really didn't take your money."
"Humph, pigs would believe you!"
"I get it, so you don't trust ! But you don't have to embellish yourself."
Yun ngyao tightened her grip around Qin Yi's neck, "Talk or else I'll choke you."
Qin Yi struggled, "Choke away, dying of suffocation and dying from being wronged are no different."
"You still dare to claim innocence? Will you cough it up or not? If not, I'll really go ruthless on you, so rciless even I scare myself."
Qin Yi almost burst into laughter at this unconventional threat.
Yun ngyao exerted more force on Qin Yi's neck, gradually realizing sothing wasn't right—Qin Yi's head was resting in the wrong place. Her lovely face instantly turned scarlet, and she pushed Qin Yi away fiercely, "You rogue."
"Hey, who's the rogue here? You're the one groping all over, and you dare to turn the tables?"
Yun ngyao's rosy face was ablaze, "Stop acting innocent while taking advantage. Just give the money back!"
"What advantage have I taken?"
"You..." Yun ngyao was ashad and furious.
But then, her expression changed abruptly to pitiful, tears brimd in her eyes, and she pulled on Qin Yi's sleeve, "Qin Yi, just return the money, won't you? Look how pitiful I am—do you have the heart to take away my hard-earned money?"
"Stop!"
Qin Yi disdainfully threw off her hand, rubbed the goosebumps on his arms, "Can you talk straight without the dramatics? Who are you trying to disgust?"
Yun ngyao's expression froze, glaring resentfully at Qin Yi, "This is your last chance, are you giving it back?"
"What's there to give back? I'm not your dad, yet you're asking for money with such audacity."
Yun ngyao's delicate face turned ashen, gritting her teeth with a faint grinding sound.
Seeing her about to explode, Qin Yi was already prepared to bolt.
Unexpectedly, Yun ngyao suddenly pleaded earnestly, "Qin Yi, just return it to , won't you? Or how about this—let's split fifty-fifty; you give a thousand gold coins, how's that?"
"No way. I didn't take your money. Why should I give you a thousand gold coins? Do you think I'm a fool?"
Yun ngyao's expression completely darkened, and she glared at Qin Yi through gritted teeth, "You leave no choice."
With that, multicolored rays flickered around her, and the room's air twisted instantly.
Damn, she's gone crazy over so money.
Seeing the situation turn dire, Qin Yi jumped out of the recliner like a rabbit and dashed out the door.
"Qin Yi, stop right there."
Yun ngyao chased after him, only to find Qin Yi escaping downstairs, and she imdiately followed.
Once downstairs, seeing Qin Yi had stopped running, she couldn't help but rejoice, "Qin Yi, accept the wrath of a goddess now."
Qin Yi turned to face her, frowned, and asked, "Where's Ran Zitong?"
"Huh?" Yun ngyao paused, looked around, and instinctively said, "She was still here when I went upstairs, probably went back to her room, right?"
"It's not appropriate for to enter her room; you better check to ensure everything's okay?"
"This is the Sword Sect; what could happen? Don't change the subject; quickly return my money."
Qin Yi slightly furrowed his brows, extended his Divine Thought, and then said, "Ran Zitong is not in her room."
Yun ngyao paused, "Really? Don't think I haven't seen through your ploy to trick upstairs and slip away."
Qin Yi said seriously, "I'm not kidding; I can't sense Ran Zitong's Qi anywhere in this building."
After speaking, Qin Yi called the two Sword Sect disciples who served them outside.
"Have you seen Miss Ran?"
"The Great Elder ca looking for Miss Ran earlier, and soone took her away," said one disciple.
Yun ngyao asked, "Could Wu Zihua have returned?"
"No way; if Wu Zihua returned, the Great Elder would invite us along, not just Miss Ran."
"Maybe the Great Elder sought Miss Ran to discuss so matters. He's a good chap, you should stop worrying."
Qin Yi raised his sword-like eyebrows, told the two Sword Sect disciples, "Take to see the Great Elder."
