Long Hui carefully scanned the girl standing in front of him. She had claimed that her shot was just a lucky one. However, he did not believe that at all. It was a lie, completely a lie. Her posture when she aimed at that man was far from ordinary. The way she pulled the trigger clearly showed that she had plenty of experience handling guns.
"Brother Hui. Brother Hui." Feng Yue waved her hand in front of Long Hui when she noticed him staring at Yu Qi in a daze.
"What?" Long Hui responded calmly, not startled at all.
"Why are you looking at Yu Qi like that?" Feng Yue asked suspiciously.
Long Hui coughed lightly. "Nothing."
"Brother Hui is in the military. He's the youngest major in history." Feng Yue said proudly.
Compared to her paternal family, Feng Yue was much closer to her maternal relatives. She shared a particularly good relationship with Long Hui. Her personality was also more similar to her maternal side, straightforward and direct. That was largely due to the military influence from her mother's upbringing.
"Military?" Yu Qi narrowed her eyes slightly before returning to her usual calm expression.
'So that's why he doubted my explanation about the random shot. He knew I was lying to Feng Yue. But even if he suspects something, he can't prove it.' Yu Qi thought quietly.
Long Hui noticed the subtle change in Yu Qi's expression. In fact, he had been observing her closely since the moment she took action earlier.
"Humph… You two have been staring at each other for quite some time. Are you having some kind of contest here?" Feng Yue, who had been completely ignored by the two of them, finally snapped in annoyance.
Yu Qi quickly coaxed her friend, easing the tension. Meanwhile, the situation in the bank was already under control. The authorities had arrived, and those with minor injuries were being treated by the medics.
"Miss, we want to thank you. Because of your actions, everyone is safe. Only Mr Han was injured." A group of people approached and expressed their gratitude to Yu Qi sincerely.
"It was just a coincidence. That man happened to be close to me, so I acted without thinking too much." Yu Qi replied humbly.
Of course, people had their own interpretations of what had happened. They had witnessed everything. How she acted decisively and how she treated their manager afterwards. In their eyes, this girl was not only capable but also kind-hearted.
"We have to leave now. Excuse us." Yu Qi said politely before walking away from the bank.
Long Hui quietly followed behind the two girls.
Yu Qi, on the other hand, remained focused on her earlier plan. She had already decided to buy that blood jade necklace.
"Yu Qi, where are we going? What is it that you want to buy?" Feng Yue asked curiously as she followed her.
When they had been browsing earlier, Yu Qi had not shown much interest in anything. So what exactly made her suddenly decide to buy something?
The answer became clear when they stopped in front of the same shop they had visited before lunch.
