605: Chapter 605 No Title 605: Chapter 605 No Title The rooms in the courtyard, she had never even stepped into before, yet unexpectedly, a girl called Yellow Hair, who came out of nowhere, moved in.

After entering the room, Su Miaoyi looked around before she settled down on the couch, then, looking up at Gu Zhiqi, she began to speak in a very familiar way, “If your name is Gu Zhiqi, from now on, I will call you Xiao Qi.”

Gu Zhiqi sat opposite Su Miaoyi, listening to her forward manner, she was just about to say something when Su Miaoyi cut in first.

“Xiao Qi, where is your family from?

I don’t know, how long have you known Third Brother?”

“It shouldn’t be too long, right?

Otherwise, I shouldn’t have never heard of you.”

It sounded as if she was asking Gu Zhiqi, but she didn’t give Gu Zhiqi a chance to answer, going right ahead and answering her own question.

“Hmm.” Conveniently, Gu Zhiqi wasn’t in the mood to respond and simply uttered a very concise sound.

Seeing Gu Zhiqi appear lazy and disinterested, not even putting on an act, the smile at the corner of Su Miaoyi’s mouth slightly stiffened.

She seems to be a naive girl who knows nothing about the ways of the world.

Thinking this, the smile returned to Su Miaoyi’s lips, “Xiao Qi, how did you meet Third Brother?”

“Fortune telling.”

Su Miaoyi: “…”

The smile she had just regained barely held up, after being silent for several seconds, she bounced back, continuing to smile cutely, “You’re quite the joker.”

Upon hearing this, Gu Zhiqi did not elaborate further.

Seeing Gu Zhiqi remain silent, Su Miaoyi inwardly cursed her for being tight-lipped, and then continued to introduce the capital city to Gu Zhiqi with a charming smile, “Xiao Qi, you’re not from the capital, are you?”

Gu Zhiqi replied, “Hmm.”

Su Miaoyi asked, “So this must be your first time in the capital, right?”

“Hmm.” Perfunctory x2.

“There are so many fun places to go here in the capital…”

Su Miaoyi went on talking to herself while Gu Zhiqi, sitting on the couch, occasionally replied with a seemingly polite but actually perfunctory comment.

Gu Zhiqi slightly lowered her gaze and thought to herself that she might as well have just stayed in a hotel.

At least in a hotel, if she encountered someone like Su Miaoyi who loved to chatter endlessly and be overly familiar, she could simply throw them out.

“So you’re suspecting that Lu Xingzhe is Number 5?” In the study, Tang Yichen stroked his chin, looking thoughtfully at Su Yunling and asked in a low voice as he lay sprawled across the conference table.

“Not much evidence, it’s just a conjecture for now,” Su Yunling replied, eyes slightly downcast, her fingertips gently tapping on the conference table.

“Who could have erased the traces of these people?

We’ve been searching for four years with not a single lead.

Now that we finally have a little clue, it’s still uncertain,” Tang Yichen said gloomily, then exhaled a breath of frustration.

“This is actually a good thing,” Su Yunling murmured, her gaze still downward as she spoke softly.

“Huh?

Good?

What’s good about it?” Tang Yichen lifted his chin from his arm, gazing at Su Yunling with a questioning look.

“If we can’t find them, it’s likely difficult for Angel’s people too.

This way, they are at least safe,” Su Yunling explained at a measured pace.

Tang Yichen thought for a moment, then nodded in agreement, “True.”

After nodding, he was silent for two seconds, then remembering the incident of Angel targeting Lu Xingzhe, Tang Yichen looked at Su Yunling and posed another question, “Third Brother, that’s not necessarily true though.

Look, we didn’t find Lu Xingzhe, but Angel’s people clearly knew of Lu Xingzhe’s identity, otherwise they wouldn’t aim for his legs and arms.”
