Chapter 226: Chapter 177: Daring to Impersonate Them

"Miss, wait a moment!"

Qin Qin was walking ahead when she heard Elder Hou’s voice behind her.

She stopped in her tracks and turned to look at Elder Hou, "Is there something you need?"

"You can tell fortunes, can’t you? I wonder if you could read mine?" Elder Hou said with a smile. He was just making conversation, wanting to chat with the girl.

Qin Qin smiled and shook her head, "Elder Hou, you’ve had a peaceful life, your children are filial, and your grandchildren are very promising. There’s really nothing to read."

Elder Hou was taken aback, then, joyful, he stroked his beard, "Indeed impressive! How should I address you?"

"My name is Qin Qin!"

"I am Hou Jianqiang. How about you call me Grandpa Hou?"

Qin Qin nodded with a smile, "Grandpa Hou."

"Very good, very good. By the way, what brings you here, Qin Qin?" Elder Hou felt that Qin Qin wasn’t just idly looking around; he’d been watching her wandering as though she was searching for something.

"Actually, I want to buy a good piece of jade, but it’s clear there’s nothing here. I’ll have to go somewhere else to look."

Qin Qin revealed her intention, feeling at ease talking to the kind-looking old man in front of her.

"A good piece of jade? That’s easy to handle. I know a place, but it’s getting late today. How about I take you to have a look tomorrow?"

Elder Hou, taking a liking to the young lady at first sight, spoke enthusiastically.

Qin Qin gave it some thought; she had time tomorrow.

After exchanging phone numbers with Elder Hou, Qin Qin left Antique Street.

No sooner did Qin Qin step out of Antique Street than she felt someone following her. She glanced at a nearby alley and quickly turned into it.

Three men behind her exchanged glances and hurriedly followed her in.

The alley was a dead end, clearly visible from one end to the other. They turned into the alley, only to find an empty dead end littered with garbage.

"Where is she? How could she have disappeared?" The speaker was the sleazy man that Qin Qin had first detected, a well-known thief named Gouzi.

"Yeah, we clearly saw her enter here. How could she vanish?" Thief A looked around, baffled.

"Could she have hidden in that pile of garbage?" Thief B glanced twice more at the garbage cans and heaps.

"Are you an idiot? She was dressed so well; how could she hide in a pile of trash?" Thief A gave Thief B a scornful look.

"Maybe she’s a ghost? She just disappeared!" Thief B said again, provoking Gouzi and Thief A to want to kick him.

"Damn it, where did that woman go? I haven’t had my revenge yet, and she’s just vanished." Gouzi spat on the ground, his face twisted in anger, considering the shame of being outplayed by a woman, he naturally wanted to get even.

"Right, and she looked so well-dressed with over ten thousand yuan I heard she made just now. I thought we could rob some money from her," grumbled Thief A in a deep voice.

Thief B, with some reluctance, said, "Let’s just leave it be, she’s just a girl after all; we don’t need to be so harsh."

"Shut up, how did I end up with such a useless worm like you? I tell you to steal, and you don’t dare; now I tell you to follow a woman, and you’re still as cowardly as ever. Don’t follow us anymore," Gouzi kicked Thief B, who stepped away, looking aggrieved. He had joined them as a last resort, and being only his second day, he had actually never stolen anything, nor did he dare.

"Let’s go!" Unable to find Qin Qin, the three men could only leave.

"Looking for me?" Qin Qin, sitting atop the wall, jumped down, smiling at the three startled men.

Gouzi and the other two were taken aback, "You... how are you on the wall?"

Qin Qin glanced at the wall, "Don’t you think the view from the wall is quite nice? Plus, you can watch a good show! Indeed splendid!"

Realizing the mockery and sarcasm in Qin Qin’s voice, Gouzi’s eyes reddened with fury as he sneered at her, "Good timing, I was worried I couldn’t find you. You’re really asking for it, surround her."

Gouzi gestured, and Thief A hurried to encircle Qin Qin. Thief B was hesitant, but after a brutal kick from Gouzi, he too joined in surrounding her.

Seeing Qin Qin trapped, Gouzi spat with content, "Tsk, you meddle too much, girl. Hand over all the money you have, and maybe I’ll let you go."

Qin Qin’s beautiful eyes swept over the three men without a trace, her lips curving into a smile, "Oh, not letting me go?! I’d like to see how you plan on doing that. Actually, you can have money if you can defeat me. I’m quite open-minded; if you can beat me, what can’t you have?"
