"I was just asked to protect her!" Zhu Zhuqing's voice remained indifferent; she only wanted to do her job.
"Okay, I'll go with you..."
A glimmer of light appeared in Xiao Wu's eyes, and she agreed without hesitation.
This must be someone Xiao Qiu found.
"Yes, come with me..."
Zhu Zhuqing nodded and slowly walked out of the Rose Hotel, with Xiao Wu immediately following behind.
She couldn't wait to find out about Ye Qiu's situation!
"Xiao Wu! Damn it..." Tang San called out, but received no response. His face turned grim, and he had no choice but to follow.
The hotel that Zhu Zhuqing booked wasn't far from here.
Xiao Wu followed behind her, watching her back, her mind filled with many questions.
Click!
After following Zhu Zhuqing into the room, Xiao Wu glanced at Tang San behind her and then closed the door behind her.
Tang San stood outside the door, his expression somewhat stiff. He forced a smile and gently knocked on the door a few times.
"Xiao Wu, you must be hungry now, right? Do you need me to buy something upstairs?"
"I'm not hungry, you go eat!"
"Oh, alright then!" Tang San took a deep breath; he had no other choice.
On the way, he warned Zhu Zhuqing several times and tried to dissuade Xiao Wu, but she ignored him and was determined to come along.
Tang San silently walked downstairs to the front desk and booked a room.
He then went out to find food on his own. Having just arrived in a new place, he needed to familiarize himself with it as soon as possible.
……
Inside the room, the sunlight streaming in through the window made it exceptionally bright.
Neither of them spoke.
Xiao Wu was sitting on the bed, while Zhu Zhuqing was leaning against the window with her arms crossed.
I watched Tang San walk down the street until his figure disappeared into the distance.
Zhu Zhuqing was a little curious. She could sense that Xiao Wu disliked, even loathed, that guy named Tang San.
But Xiao Wu let him follow her.
It's really incomprehensible...
"Where is Xiao Qiu now?! Is he alright?"
Her crimson eyes, facing the sunlight, were fixed on Zhu Zhuqing, her two small hands clasped together.
"Xiao Qiu?"
Hearing her address Ye Qiu, Zhu Zhuqing turned to look at her, her eyes seemingly filled with a hint of reminiscence.
"I don't know either... I haven't seen him for almost two years..."
Xiao Wu's eyes were filled with deep disappointment, and there were tears welling up in them. Her little hand kept rubbing the pink ring on her ring finger.
"So... what's your relationship with Xiao Qiu?"
"..."
Faced with Xiao Wu's question, Zhu Zhuqing's face suddenly flushed slightly, and she pursed her lips and remained silent for a moment.
"I...I like him!"
Without any attempt to hide anything, the words left her mouth, and her face flushed even more, yet she felt a great sense of relief.
He stared straight at Xiao Wu, wanting to see her reaction.
"That's it..."
Xiao Wu was also stunned for a moment. She blinked her crimson eyes, slowly lowered her head, and suddenly felt a little flustered.
"What about Xiao Qiu? Does he like you too?"
"I do not know either!"
Zhu Zhuqing looked out the window again with her pale purple eyes. She should have... confessed to him before, right?
But he didn't seem to agree?
But it doesn't matter, he's already seen and touched almost every inch of my body, and knows everything about me...
If that filthy thing... dares to shirk responsibility...!
Xiao Wu looked up and stared at Zhu Zhuqing, who was blushing and gritting her teeth, wondering what had happened between them.
Xiao Qiu must have told her about her relationship with him, and she also likes Xiao Qiu...
"By the way, why did you come to protect me?"
"Because...he needed me, so I came!"
……
Meanwhile, Tang San, who was out looking for food, arrived at a rather dilapidated shop with a circular mark engraved on its signboard.
The special symbols on it caught his attention; they were somewhat similar to the token in the master's hand.
They are the Seven Kill Sword, the Clear Sky Hammer, and a Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex, which are intertwined to form a pattern.
Just as I reached the door, a girl in a light blue dress came out to greet me.
He was holding a piece of transparent crystal in his hand, muttering curses under his breath.
"Hmph! What a swindler! He actually dared to charge me five hundred gold coins. If it weren't for Ye Qiu needing it, I would have torn this shady shop down!"
This young girl was none other than Ning Rongrong, who had left the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
Before she left, Ye Qiu gave her many instructions, including mentioning this crystal.
Although he only mentioned it vaguely, Ning Rongrong would naturally do her best to find anything he needed.
Moreover, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's intelligence network is quite good; she only needs to go to her own hotel and instruct her servants to search for it.
Having just passed by, Tang San, whose eyesight was extraordinary, immediately noticed something was wrong and stopped in his tracks.
What did he see?!
What the girl held in her hand was actually the finest type of rutilated quartz, a plate-shaped crystal! The golden threads inside had already coalesced into a block!
"Miss, please wait!"
Excitement flashed in Tang San's eyes, and his somewhat dull face flushed slightly, showing just how excited he was.
"Huh? Are you calling me?"
Ning Rongrong turned around and looked at the dark-skinned, thin boy who had called out to her with a puzzled expression.
"That's right, miss. May I ask if you would be willing to sell me what you have?"
Approach with a smile, trying to keep your voice calm.
But the bloody welt on his face, caused by Xiao Wu's punch, made him look rather comical.
"Hmph! Don't get so close to me, you stink..." Ning Rongrong frowned, covering her mouth and nose in disgust.
"Hehe...sorry." Tang San chuckled dryly and took a few steps back.
Under the scorching sun, after working as a rickshaw driver for so long, he was indeed sweating a lot.
"Hmph! I spent five hundred gold coins to buy this. Can you afford it? Besides, I'm not selling it, so don't even think about it!"
Looking at Tang San's attire, apart from the soul tool at his waist that seemed to have some value, everything else looked worthless.
Ning Rongrong didn't linger and immediately turned to leave.
"Wait a moment!"
"I already said I'm not selling anymore, are you ever going to stop?!"
Ning Rongrong looked at Tang San impatiently. She was not a patient person, except when it came to Ye Qiu.
"Miss, I think I can trade this silent hidden dart for you!"
Tang San produced a delicate, wristband-like object in his hand.
His face radiated confidence. Although he didn't have that many gold coins, he had Tang Clan hidden weapons!
His hidden weapons are absolutely poisonous in the Douluo Continent!
Trading it with a native for a piece of crystal that ordinary people would consider of poor quality would be a piece of cake!
Seeing the surprise in Ning Rongrong's eyes, Tang San couldn't help but show a proud expression.
"Miss, this is a weapon. It's lightweight and portable. Even a Soul Master could be fatal if caught off guard. For a girl like you, it's definitely an essential companion for home and travel!"
puff!
As he spoke, Tang San fired a shot at the wall of the shop, the arrow tip penetrating about an inch.
