Lost in thought.
The man looked up and reminded her, "Your phone rang several tis. However, I didn’t answer."
Qin Xin’s heart skipped a beat, her long lashes fluttered.
She mumbled an "Oh" and quickly picked up her phone to check.
It was Xiangxiang’s location.
Before leaving, at the barbecue site, she installed a hidden tracking app on Xiangxiang’s phone.
This way, no matter where Xiangxiang went, she was under her surveillance.
Especially when she left school and went to the madhouse to see Wu Zhiming, the system would send alerts.
She could imdiately find out who Xiangxiang t or what deals she made with Wu Zhiming, getting ahead of events.
She held the phone: "It’s a bit hot, I’ll go get so air."
She walked to the balcony with her phone.
She opened the surveillance interface.
Unlike tracking software, the surveillance interface not only shows the route but also allows her to hear through the phone’s microphone.
She only heard Xiangxiang leave the school, taking a bus for about two stops towards the madhouse.
Then she got off halfway.
Getting off before reaching the madhouse? What kind of mission is this? Or who is she eting?
Qin Xin listened on, filled with curiosity.
But she saw that the bus stop where Xiangxiang alighted was a popular comrcial street near Royal Academy.
Unlike luxurious malls like the Golden Diamond Corridor and Galaxy Family, the small comrcial street Xiangxiang went to was full of inexpensive small shops.
Xiangxiang found a store selling phone cases and went inside.
Upon entering, she asked the owner, "Hello, did the materials I ordered last ti arrive?"
Qin Xin’s heart tensed.
Trading in a phone case shop?
So discreet?
How unexpected.
The owner rustled around and brought out a big bag of items, picking and choosing for her: "Considering your sincerity, I arranged for your order. This rhinestone is expensive, and the queen’s crown alone costs 50... Oh, young lady, be careful, the cost of this set of materials is 300, if you damage it, you can’t afford to pay."
Xiangxiang replied awkwardly, "Well, I only have 250 pocket money, can I give you all of it?"
The owner exclaid, "No way! That’s too little! The materials you chose are the most expensive for making phone cases. This rhinestone is Austrian crystal, it’s pricey. Swarovski uses this kind of crystal for their necklaces, and you’re offering so little, do you think I’m a charity?"
Feeling criticized, Xiangxiang was a bit embarrassed: "I’m sorry, I’m sorry..."
The owner, seeing her reluctance, sighed heavily, "Alright, alright, pity on you, let’s call it 300, and I won’t make a penny. Pay 250 now, and owe 50 for next ti."
Xiangxiang was so grateful that she thanked profusely: "Thank you, really, thank you!"
The owner curled his lips, "Young lady, I noticed your phone isn’t this size. Are you making a phone case for your boyfriend? If you’re investing so much, let remind you, n don’t like rhinestones..."
Xiangxiang blushed, "No, I’m making it for our family’s young lady. Her phone case got damaged last ti because the school building collapsed..."
Owner: "Oh dear, what kind of lousy school do you attend that even buildings collapse?"
Xiangxiang coughed, "Cough, maybe it’s poor quality."
Qin Xin’s hand, resting on the phone, felt warm, perhaps from the phone heating up.
She didn’t continue listening to Xiangxiang and the owner’s chit-chat afterwards.
This was not so mission handover or any deal.
It was just a simple scene of a girl buying materials for making a phone case.
She could even imagine how red-faced Xiangxiang was, with her shy nature, bargaining with the phone case store owner.
Why such contradiction?
ticulously plotting to kill her, yet out of concern, wanting to make her a new phone case by hand?
