Qi Xiang teased the Mutated Rat King with the Crystal Core in her hand while shooting Wei Heng a look. 'Pikachu, you're up.'
Wei "Pikachu" Heng didn't much want to play the bad guy, but he was genuinely curious about the direction of the rat's mutation. Besides, Miss Qi's temper made her a real handful.
Resigned, Wei Heng had no choice but to pull out the syringe Qi Xiang had given him earlier.
But unexpectedly, the moment the Mutated Rat King saw the syringe, it seemed to realize what was happening. It snatched the Crystal Core from Qi Xiang's hand in a flash and vanished in an instant.
Wei Heng: "..."
He turned to Qi Xiang and said with a sigh, "Couldn't you have just gotten it over with while you were teasing it?"
Qi Xiang stood up, dusted off her hands, and said righteously, "I plan on keeping this little guy in the future. How could I be the bad guy?"
Wei Heng stared at her, his face blank. '...So I guess that makes me the perfect person to be the bad guy?'
