Chapter 826: Cannot Afford
The three actors were also scared silly and stayed where they were, not daring to move.
Xie Qiao raised her head and looked at the ghouls above her.
There were quite many of them. After the thing fell, they actually ran out directly.
Xie Qiao thought something was off about these ghouls, so she did not think too much about it. She immediately said, “Master Yu, stay with Ms. Ying. I have something important…”
“We’ll go with you!” Yu Xian said immediately, “With your body, what if something happens to you? My body is similar to a man’s. If you need my help, just tell me.”
Earlier, she saw Xie Qiao’s expression change, but she did not know why.
It was probably an important matter, so she could not let Xie Qiao go alone.
Young Lady Xie had almost fainted when she was angered by Xie Pinghuai earlier…
Yu Xian felt that Xie Qiao was like a snowflake on an iceberg. She was beautiful and flawless, but she was very fragile.
With a light touch, she would break.
Yu Xian did not bother to talk to the shopkeeper. She jumped through the wooden board and dragged Feng Yingying along with Xie Qiao.
Inside the theater, everyone was confused. They had no idea what was going on…
Since Yu Xian and Feng Yingying wanted to follow, Xie Qiao did not stop them.
“Your eyesight is amazing. You said that the wooden board would fall, and it did. I have a feeling that it would be very interesting for me to follow you today,” Yu Xian said in a reserved manner and scratched her head.
She had been wandering around like a little boy since she was young. She could feel that what Xie Qiao wanted to do was definitely different from what an ordinary young lady would do!
Xie Qiao looked at her with a strange look. “Maybe it’s not interesting, but scary. Do you want to follow me?”
“Of course. I am not afraid of a young lady like you… I… Of course I am not afraid.” Yu Xian was even more interested now.
Shopping and watching a show in the garden was really… boring.
Now that Xie Qiao wanted to leave her and Feng Yingying to do other things, that was absolutely not possible.
They had agreed that Young Lady Xie would accompany them for a stroll today.
Yu Xian was very determined.
“Alright, you can follow me.” Xie Qiao did not stop them.
They followed behind the ghouls.
There were seven or eight ghouls. They should not be old. They were all teenagers.
After leaving the garden, they entered an antique shop in the blink of an eye. They touched the things and started sawing again.
This time, they were sawing the shelf.
The ghouls’ tricks usually did not have much of an effect. At most, they would blow at people, making people feel itchy. There were only some minor effects.
The ability of this saw was the same. It was not very strong, but it had some uses.
It could really cut things bit by bit.
Xie Qiao was not in a hurry. She just waited inside.
The boss of this antique shop was a little unhappy, but he did not dare to say or ask. His eyes would glance at them from time to time.
Yu Xian and Feng Yingying were even more confused.
Perhaps it was because these seven or eight ghouls gathered together that the effect was strong. In less than twenty-five minutes, Xie Qiao looked at the thing that was being sawed. It was going to break.
She said to the boss, “Take down all the things on this shelf. I want to take a closer look.”
The boss’s eyelids trembled.
Does this young lady know how many things were on the shelf?!
“You want to look at all of them? Why don’t you pick two, and I’ll take them down first…” the boss looked quite pitiful.
Xie Qiao shook her head. “My eldest brother is an official at the criminal division. Are you suspecting that I can’t afford it?”
The moment the boss heard that it was the criminal division, he jolted. He did not dare to ask any more questions and immediately got someone to remove everything on the shelf.
Creak… Thud!
