Chapter 9: Strange



"Ye Shuxin, please ask your friend to watch his mouth. He is such a grown-up, doesn't he know that trouble comes from the mouth?" Qin Qing turned around and glanced at Xie Yuqin, and said only to Ye Shuxin.

"Xiaoqing, don't talk about my friend like that! She didn't say anything, and you are really too ignorant. My parents are arguing over you, but you are playing in this mall. I advise you to go to our house for your own good." Ye Shuxin said to Qin Qing with a serious face.

"Xinxin, why are you being so polite to her? Qin Qing, right? You said you used Xinxin's father's money to buy things here. She is your cousin, can't she just say a few words to you? Besides, she asked you to go to her house with good intentions, but what's the meaning of your sullen face? I think if I don't care about you anymore, you will have to take drugs and have an abortion in the future?" Xie Yuqin, who was ignored, felt a blockage in her heart, and then glanced at Qin Qing's body with disgust.

"Say it again?" Qin Qing frowned when he heard this, stared at Xie Yuqin coldly, and took a step forward and said.

Qin Qing's months of physical training hadn't been in vain. Her tense muscles had transformed her from her previous languid demeanor into a sharp sword unsheathed. Xie Yuqin shuddered and couldn't help but take a step back. At that moment, she felt as if she were being stared at by a ferocious beast, and a chill spread from her heart.

Ye Shuxin was also surprised. Qin Qing had looked so downcast just now, but she hadn't expected him to have such a fierce aura. Seeing Xie Yuqin timidly hiding behind her, she secretly spat. Was she really useless?

As her mind raced, she saw the jade Buddha in Xie Yuqin's hand that the salesperson had shown her earlier. Suddenly, an idea flashed through her mind, and she stepped back. Xie Yuqin was so frightened that her mind went blank. Before she could recover, she felt a force from behind, sending her charging towards Qin Qing.

Qin Qing saw clearly that Ye Shuxin pushed her good friend towards her. She scoffed inwardly, thinking she shouldn't have bothered with these two women any more. One was cunning, the other was foolish. She would have been better off visiting a few more shopping malls to learn how to get to their warehouse.

Just as Qin Qing was about to dodge, he suddenly felt a cool sensation coming from Xie Yuqin. Qin Qing paused for a moment, and felt the palm of his left hand suddenly become hot. In that moment of hesitation, Xie Yuqin was about to throw herself at him, but Qin Qing grabbed her arm and put some distance between them.

At this moment, Qin Qing's heart was surging like waves, because when she held Xie Yuqin's hand, she actually felt her left hand touching something cool, and then the hot palm of her hand kept absorbing the coolness like a sponge. However, in an instant, the cool feeling disappeared, and the hot feeling in her palm also disappeared.

What exactly is that thing?

Before Qin Qing could examine it carefully, she heard the jewelry saleswoman exclaim in surprise, "Jade Buddha...?"

Xie Yuqin was startled, and after being pushed like that, her mind was in a mess. By the time she was awakened by the salesperson's shout, Qin Qing had already let her go. Following the salesperson's shout, she glanced at the jade Buddha in her hand and was stunned. Why did this jade Buddha feel different from before? And... it was cracked... cracked...?

Xie Yuqin was suddenly in tears. She had originally thought of framing Qin Qing, but the necessary thing was in Qin Qing's hands. Now that the jade Buddha was in her hands, what should she do? The price for this jade Buddha was not low, and Xie Yuqin was so anxious that sweat broke out on her forehead.

Qin Qing didn't want to worry about that. She just wanted to get away quickly, find a quiet place, and carefully examine her palms. What was going on? Whether it was the cool feeling just now or the heat in her left palm, she felt that it was definitely closely related to the inexplicable space she had appeared in.

"Miss, if you need this jade Buddha, I'll wrap it up for you." The salesperson, worried about the Buddha's condition when she saw Xie Yuqin rushing toward Qin Qing, couldn't help but exclaim. Now that both of them were standing safely, she breathed a sigh of relief. As long as the Buddha was alright, it was all right. She quickly forced a smile and said to Xie Yuqin.

Xie Yuqin felt like she was in a difficult situation. She didn't know which bastard had pushed her just now. She couldn't help but look behind her with resentment. Besides Ye Shuxin, there was a group of people gathered around to watch the excitement.

"Miss? Could you please give me the Jade Buddha? Thank you!" The salesperson saw Xie Yuqin stiffen and ignore her, so she raised her voice. There was already a hint of suspicion in her tone. Could it be that these people were here to steal something?

Seeing the salesperson in such a state, Xie Yuqin couldn't care less. If she couldn't find the person who pushed her, she could only find the person she bumped into. Xie Yuqin's eyes rolled around, and then she grabbed Qin Qing's sleeve as he was about to leave and said, "You are not allowed to leave. You broke this jade Buddha, you have to take responsibility."

I have to say, Xie Yuqin really told the truth!

But Qin Qing didn't know it was because of her. He looked at Xie Yuqin with a puzzled expression and said, "Let go. If you are sick, go to the hospital immediately."

When the salesperson heard Xie Yuqin say the words "the jade Buddha is broken", her face turned pale. She worked at the jewelry counter and only earned a few thousand yuan a month. If this jade Buddha pendant was broken, she didn't know if she could pay off the compensation even if she worked for her boss for ten years for nothing.

Thinking of this, she didn't care whose fault it was. She stepped forward to help Xie Yuqin grab Qin Qing's arm and said sharply: "None of you are allowed to leave, you... and you... are not allowed to leave. I don't care who broke it, you have to pay for it." She pointed her finger at Qin Qing and then at Ye Shuxin who was standing aside watching the joke.

Ye Shuxin's expression, originally looking like she was about to laugh, suddenly darkened. However, no one else should have noticed that she had pushed Xie Yuqin, so there shouldn't be any major problems. After figuring this out, she gently said to the salesperson, "Don't worry. What exactly happened? Yuqin...? Why is the jade Buddha in your hand broken? Xiaoqing, how could you break my friend's jade Buddha? Even if she said a few words on my behalf, you shouldn't have done this."

As he spoke, tears suddenly sparkled in his misty eyes, and tears hung on his eyelashes, looking like they were about to fall. This immediately caused the people who did not know the truth to whisper about Qin Qing and accuse him of what he should have done.

After hearing this, the salesperson and Xie Yuqin grabbed Qin Qing's arms and refused to let go.
