Chapter 2492: It’s me!

Yu Xiaoke’s sudden arrival gave yang Qiqi a shock. She quickly pulled back her hand that was going through Lin Yi’s bag and glared at Yu Xiaoke. What was wrong with this person? He didn’t know them, there were so many seats beside them, but he just had to come to their side, wasn’t this just being annoying?

But, Yu Xiaoke was already sitting next to them-Qiqi couldn’t just kick her out, could she? Helplessly, Qiqi gave up and looked for another chance.

“Ahem …” You Xiaoke turned to look at Lin Yi and realized that he didn’t seem to notice her. She quickly coughed.

Qiqi was about to hit her when Xiaoke sat down and started eating, but who would’ve thought that Xiaoke would cough again? she jumped, and her heart almost fell out of her chest. She quickly pulled her hand back.

Lin Yi turned to Xiaoke helplessly as well, but he didn’t say anything after some hesitation. He knew that Xiaoke might have noticed something, but he couldn’t say anything in front of Qiqi.

At that moment, Qiqi’s phone rang. She took it out and looked at the caller ID. She quickly stood up and turned to Lin Yi,”Young hero, I’m going to take a call. Wait for me …”

With that, Qiqi walked away quickly to a corner of the restaurant and picked up the phone carefully.

Qiqi’s departure gave you Xiaoke some space to interact with Lin Yi.

“Hey … It’s me …” Yu Xiaoke lowered her voice and hinted to Lin Yi,””It’s me!”

Lin Yi was speechless. He didn’t want to meet Yu Xiaoke because he didn’t want her to be involved. He didn’t want to avoid her, but now that she took the initiative to meet him, Lin Yi couldn’t pretend that he didn’t know her.

“It’s the flying Sparrow, long time no see!” Lin Yi said.

“It’s you indeed!” Yu Xiaoke heard Lin Yi call her the flying Sparrow and was excited. This man was the male thief, but if he was, why was he so perverted? And so, Yu Xiaoke lowered her voice,””Male thief, that girl just now was …”

“Flying Sparrow, it’s not convenient to talk here. Let’s talk in my room tonight.” Lin Yi didn’t want to explain much.

“En, okay!” Yu Xiaoke heard Lin Yi’s words and knew that he might have something he couldn’t tell her. She didn’t force him and nodded.

Lin Yi’s attention, on the other hand, was on Qiqi, who was not too far away! Qiqi was far away, and her back was facing Lin Yi-he couldn’t read her lips, but she forgot an important fact-Lin Yi was Earth Class mid phase peak, and if he wanted to eavesdrop on her, he’d hear every word.

“Hey … Yes, I found the blood of an earth element Sky Class spirit beast, it’s indeed here … I know, I’ll try my best to get it back … Yes, for the sake of little 9th’s illness, I’ll get it for sure …” Qiqi’s tone was sour as she spoke. She was confident that she’d be able to bring the blue crystal here, but who would’ve thought that it’d be taken away right in front of the market? she didn’t know if she could get it back from Lin Yi.

In order to stop her family from worrying, Qiqi didn’t tell them the truth-even if she did, it wouldn’t help, and it’d only make them worry. She might as well think of a way to get the blue crystal back herself.

“Yes, I know, I’ll be careful-I’ll go back as soon as I get the blood, and we can’t delay little Jiu’s illness any longer …” Qiqi said,””Alright, I know. Goodbye …”

After the call, Qiqi let out a long sigh and put her phone away, worried. She looked at Lin Yi not far away with a complicated gaze, gritted her teeth, and walked back with determination.

What Qiqi didn’t know was that Lin Yi had heard every single word she said, and his feelings were getting complicated!

Yang Qiqi was trying to save someone? Using the blue crystal to exchange for the earth element heaven rank spirit beast’s blood to save his life?

Thinking about it, it made sense-Qiqi was a rather conservative person. Last time, she was about to stab him to death because she saw her body, and now she was throwing herself at him to seduce him. She wouldn’t do this unless she had no other choice!

If Qiqi was only after the blood for something else, Lin Yi wouldn’t have helped her. Getting the blue crystal was a given, but Qiqi was trying to save someone. Lin Yi thought differently.

Saving people … Lin Yi knew how it felt to do it even if he had to-wasn’t it the same back in the Ice Palace? In order to cure Feng Xiaoxiao, no matter how hard it was, even if he had to pay with his life, Lin Yi gritted his teeth and endured it.

And that was probably what Qiqi was feeling right now. Otherwise, Qiqi wouldn’t have gritted her teeth and endured him touching her.

At that thought, Lin Yi felt a little apologetic towards Qiqi-this cool girl wasn’t that bad after all. At least she stole the blue crystal to save someone, and Lin Yi could understand and accept that reason …

Whatever, he’d find a chance to get her to steal it back. The Sky Class practitioner with the blood of an earth element Sky Class beast wanted something from a water element Sky Class beast anyway, and Lin Yi just so happened to have that bottle on him. He’d just wait for Qiqi to return the blue crystal to him, and then go get the thing he needed back for the blue crystal.

Qiqi didn’t say anything after she came back, eating quietly. To her surprise, Lin Yi’s lecherous hands seemed to have stopped touching her, and she had dinner in peace.

After the meal, Lin Yi, yang Qiqi, han xiaopo, and Yu Xiaoke went to the service desk in the main hall and booked four adjacent rooms before going upstairs together.

Yang Qiqi didn’t know what Lin Yi’s relationship with Yu Xiaoke was, but from their conversation, she could guess that the two knew each other. However, yang Qiqi didn’t have the intention to talk to Yu Xiaoke. She just wanted to get the blue crystal back. As for who Lin Yi knew, it didn’t matter to her.

The four of them went back to their rooms after they got upstairs, and Lin Yi threw his bag on the sofa as soon as he got back-it was a chance for Qiqi to steal! Of course, other than the blue crystal, there was nothing else in his bag. (To be continued.)
