Lu Yan went into deep thought for a moment and said with a deep and serene expression, “If someone from the Zhaixing Administration found this, then it must have some kind of history. But according to your analysis, if the head of the Wangyue Administration is in Qingzhou City, I think the head of the Zhaixing Administration should also be in the city.”
Qi Qingyao cradled her forehead exasperatedly. She said, “Aren’t you just repeating what I said?”
“I just picked out some points that I didn’t fully understand.” Lu Yan got to his feet as he went on. He paced around the room. After walking around for some time, he hung his head and said, “Why did the Zhaixing Administration not make a move and investigate after they received this object?”
Qi Qingyao knew he was talking to himself, trying to sort out some details.
All of a sudden.
A thought burrowed into her mind.
She gasped.
“Wait a minute…”
“???” Lu Yan paused in his steps, raising his head to look at her.
Qi Qingyao suddenly got up. She clenched her right hand into a fist and pressed it into the palm of her left hand. “Could it be because the whole thing happened in Qingzhou City? For example, the fake goods appeared in Qingzhou City, so the Zhaixing Administration is convinced that the people behind with the real goods are also in Qingzhou City?”
“...” Lu Yan’s eyes instantly narrowed.
Qi Qingyao said with a sudden realization, “They could now be waiting for me to lose my patience and make an appearance.”
Lu Yan said in a low voice, “You’re saying that they might be fishing too?”
Qi Qingyao’s dark eyes were deep and quiet as she said, “You already mentioned that all the people from the Zhaixing Administration are f*cking intellects and are good at analyzing information. How could they possibly not guess what we’re thinking now then? But they just didn’t expect me to predict their prediction! So, now that we know what they’re predicting, we’ll have to make a whole new prediction. ”
“Wow, you and your tongue twisters!” Lu Yan spat, unable to stop himself.
Qi Qingyao added calmly, “If the opponent is really waiting for me to show my hand, then there is some fun to be had.”
Lu Yan pondered for a bit then said, “We’ll see who loses their cool first.”
Qi Qingyao suddenly felt much more relaxed.
It would be great if they could figure out what the Zhaixing Administration was thinking.
They would just have to not make any moves from now on.
Then see how long the other party could remain calm.
Lu Yan concluded that they would not get any results in a short time, so he took his leave very relaxedly.
Qi Qingyao was left sitting there by herself.
She gazed at the white porcelain tea bowl in her hand while she thought about this matter.
The head of the Zhaixing Administration was in Qingzhou City? As well as the head of the Wangyue Administration?
If two of the heads of the ghost organization were really in Qingzhou City…
Just what was their purpose?
Was it Si Jin?
Si Jin truly incited the curiosity of others.
Even so, what could the Wangyue Administration possibly do?
Assign a few informants to infiltrate Lu Yan?
Wait a minute.
If that was the case…
The Lu family was the top chamber of commerce in Northern Liang.
As such, they definitely had a few informants from the Wangyue Administration among them.
It was said that the ghost organization had a legacy of three hundred years.
In other words, it would be strange if there were no informants from the ghost organization at Lu Yan’s side.
If they were with Lu Yan, then they were definitely also present in the Qi Residence.
Dong Jing was the one who carried out the plan alone, so they could be certain that Dong Jing was not the undercover infiltrator. That would also explain why the Zhaixing Administration had not taken action.
So who could it be?
Steward Zhang?
Steward Zhang usually acted very normal, so he did not look the part.
Wait…
She could not be hasty in ruling him out just because he did not look like it!
The other side might guess that this was what she was thinking.
Qi Qingyao had gone undercover before. She knew one rule—some undercover organizations did not need their agents to constantly listen in for intelligence; they just needed you to do a good job of going undercover.
When the key moment arrived, then they would use you.
After all, the moment an undercover agent was exposed, that chess piece would be completely useless.
So what was certain at present was that even if there was an informant within the Qi Residence, the informant would not reveal anything in the short run. Unless....the Zhaixing Administration did not want this chess piece anymore!
