When the little vendor completely focused his attention on the two of them, he realized that something was wrong. The more he looked at them, the more familiar they looked. Suddenly, a thought flashed through his mind. His eyes lit up and his expression immediately became excited.
“Could the two of you be the famous Mr. Zhou Xuan and Miss Shan Yue in the Federation City?” The peddler looked even more carefully. “That’s right, that’s definitely right. It must be the two of you. I’m really lucky to meet you here to buy my things.”
Since the other party was so certain and the two of them did not intend to hide it today, they generously admitted their identities.
“You’re right. However, the two of us are only out for a stroll. We don’t want to attract everyone’s attention. Otherwise, the time we’ve finally squeezed out will be wasted again.” As Shan Yue spoke, she placed her index finger between her lips and made a shushing gesture, signaling the vendor to lower his voice so that no one else on the road could hear him.
“I understand, I understand.” The vendor nodded repeatedly. “I’m just too excited. I didn’t expect a working person like me to meet you two celebrities. It can be considered that I’ve fulfilled a small wish of mine.”
“Boss, how much is this hair clip? We’ll take it.” Shan Yue chuckled.
“Look at what you’re asking. I can’t accept your money for this.”
The vendor hurriedly shook his head and refused. “About half a month ago, my family was sick. It was your free antidote that saved them. No matter what, you’re our family’s second parent. How can I accept your money?”
“No, no. I have to give you money for this.” Zhou Xuan immediately said, “If you don’t want money, we don’t want this hair clip either.”
In the end, the vendor symbolically offered a price of ten yuan. Zhou Xuan knew that he must be asking for too little. After paying twenty yuan, he took the hairpin and left with Shan Yue.
“I didn’t expect that the two of us are quite famous in Federal City now. Even small merchants by the roadside could recognize us.”
“Of course.” Zhou Xuan interlocked his fingers and held Shan Yue’s hand. He half-joked. “This is all thanks to you. You also made me a celebrity all of a sudden. In the end, I’m the one who benefited from you.”
“Why? The eldest son of the Zhou family, who has been famous since he was young, will still benefit from me?” Shan Yue’s eyes curved.
The two of them started chatting and did not notice that an invisible pair of eyes was staring at them in the corner, recording their every move. A black shadow flashed past. With a thought, Shan Yue glanced into the slightly dark alley from the corner of her eye. The black shadow had long disappeared without a trace.
“What’s wrong, Shan Yue?” Zhou Xuan noticed Shan Yue’s reaction and was a little puzzled. He was not that perceptive and did not know what was happening around him.
“No… nothing. 1 was mistaken. I thought it was someone I knew.”
The reason why Shan Yue did not tell Zhou Xuan what she had noticed was firstly because she did not want him to worry about her. Secondly, Shan Yue did not want Zhou Xuan to come into contact with the competition with the organization too early. At that time, it would only bring him countless dangers.
She immediately retracted her expression and replied to Zhou Xuan with her usual smile. “Don’t worry about that. Let’s continue shopping.”
Shan Yue stole a last glance at the same spot and continued walking as if nothing had happened.
However, Shan Yue’s intuition was right. It was mainly because the night in the alley was very dark and there were no lights. Otherwise, the first time Lan Ying came out to follow Shan Yue, it would be exposed to her.
Lan Ying was hiding behind the trash can in the box. She endured the stench and did not dare to breathe. Her back could not help but break out in cold sweat.
How dangerous. I was almost discovered by the target. Who exactly is this Shan Yue? She actually sensed my existence. Damn it, Lan Ying thought..
