"Chopin's Ballade No. 1 played on violin, hailed as a masterpiece of emotional expression, is indeed excellent, wouldn't you say... Miss Phantom Thief..."
Upon hearing the voice, Shangguan Xi was startled, then turned around abruptly, only to see "Arsène Lupin" standing behind her in casual clothes and a baseball cap.
"Kidd?"
Shangguan Xi lowered her voice and tentatively spoke.
"It's an honor to see you again, Miss Shangguan Xi."
Chen Feng took Shangguan Xi's hand and gently kissed it.
Shangguan Xi seemed to be used to Chen Feng's actions, but asked with a hint of doubt, "Why are you using Arsen's face again? Do you know him?"
"I just think this gentleman looks a lot like me, and like me, he's good-looking enough."
"You're really narcissistic." Shangguan Xi rolled her eyes.
Then, as if remembering something, he asked, "Did you just get back from Hawaii?"
"I just arrived today," Chen Feng replied.
"Second sister!"
At that moment, a voice came, and Shangguan Meng, who hadn't even changed out of her performance costume, came over to Shangguan Xi with a grin and threw herself into Shangguan Xi's arms.
"Xiaomeng, stop fooling around. You're a grown woman, and there are people watching you."
Shangguan Xi spoke to signal.
Shangguan Meng glanced sideways and immediately noticed Chen Feng standing to the side. She got off Shangguan Xi and said, "Brother Yasen is here too."
"It's nice to meet you again, Miss Shangguan Meng."
Chen Feng's undisguised voice came through, startling Shangguan Meng, who turned to look at her second sister.
"Second sister, he..."
“It’s Kidd,” Shangguan Xi explained softly.
"Alright, so that's who it is. It turns out it's Second Sister's little lover."
Shangguan Meng laughed teasingly, completely disregarding Shangguan Xi's slightly flushed cheeks.
After chatting for a few minutes, Shangguan Meng looked around but couldn't find Shangguan Lin. She couldn't help but ask, "Hey? Where's Big Sister? Why isn't she here?"
Shangguan Xi glanced around and lowered her voice to say, "Big sister went to the Su family's press conference to prepare for the next target."
"The next operation?"
Shangguan Meng's eyes lit up.
buzz~
A phone vibrated, and Shangguan Xi picked it up to see that it was a message from her eldest sister.
"Let's go back first. My older sister wants to discuss something with us, and there's also Kidd..."
Shangguan Xi glanced at Chen Feng and asked, "If you don't mind, why don't you come with us?"
“It’s my pleasure, madam,” Chen Feng replied with a smile.
The three of them left the school gate, got into Shangguan Xi's car, and started driving towards the dessert shop.
……
Chapter 158 Gems: Sky City
The three of them returned to the second floor of the dessert shop together.
Pushing open the door, Shangguan Lin was slightly taken aback when she saw "Yasen" entering with her two younger sisters. She then realized Chen Feng's identity.
He walked over, closed the living room door, and drew the curtains before sitting down again.
He crossed his straight legs and looked at Shangguan Xi sitting on the opposite sofa with a half-smile.
Seemingly embarrassed by the stare, Shangguan Xi quickly said, "Big sister! Why are you staring at me like that?"
Upon hearing this, Shangguan Lin didn't say anything, but turned her gaze to Chen Feng beside her: "Mr. Kidd, now that you're here, aren't you going to take off your disguise?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Feng smiled slightly, then waved his hand in front of him to conceal his face.
next second.
When Chen Feng removed his hand again, the disguise on his face had disappeared, revealing his true appearance.
Seeing Chen Feng's changed expression, Shangguan Xi stared at his face for a couple of seconds in a daze, until Chen Feng turned his head to meet her gaze, at which point she hurriedly looked away.
Chen Feng said, "You guys can continue. I just came to take a look."
"You've come to see Xiaoxi, haven't you?"
Shangguan Lin teased with a smile.
"Miss!"
Shangguan Xi let out a soft laugh, and a blush instantly crept onto her cheeks.
"Okay, okay, I won't say anything more."
Shangguan Lin waved her hand, ending the conversation, and then took out a stack of flyers from her bag and handed them to the group.
Chen Feng picked up the flyer and glanced at it.
"Sponsored by Mr. Su Zhongtian, Chairman of the Su Group, the exhibition 'Sky City,' the most dazzling gem among the sky's travel yachts, will be held on January 27th, just before the Lunar New Year..."
"A cruise ship in the sky, a Soviet-style group..."
Shangguan Meng muttered to herself, then suddenly looked up: "I remember now, isn't this Su Group the one where Kidd stole the [Tears of the Goddess]? Why is it popping up again?"
As she spoke, Shangguan Meng glanced at Chen Feng sitting next to her.
Seeing that he didn't react, she then looked away.
Upon hearing Shangguan Meng's words, Shangguan Xi frowned slightly and looked at Shangguan Lin.
"Big sister, this Su Group has been quiet for almost half a year, but to pull this stunt so close to the end of the year, they must have made ample preparations. And the fact that they're exhibiting on an airship is a bit..."
"A little difficult?"
Shangguan Lin took the initiative to speak.
Shangguan Xi did not deny it and simply nodded.
"I was a little hesitant at first, but now..."
A sly look appeared on Shangguan Lin's delicate face, and she said with her red lips slightly parted, "If I could get your little lover's help, I think this matter would be much simpler."
As soon as she finished speaking, the three Shangguan sisters all looked in Chen Feng's direction.
Chen Feng smiled and said, "An invitation from a beautiful woman, especially in such a novel way as aerial treasure hunting, seems to leave me with no reason to refuse."
Hearing this, Shangguan Xi breathed a sigh of relief and said softly, "Thank you."
"It's alright. If there's nothing else, I'll be going now. I still have some things to take care of."
Chen Feng stood up and spoke.
Shangguan Xi also stood up: "I'll see you off."
The two left the room and headed downstairs.
Half an hour later, Shangguan Xi returned alone, but for some reason, her face was slightly flushed, and even the color of her lipstick was a little lighter.
Shangguan Lin and Shangguan Meng exchanged a glance in the living room, their eyes both filled with a smile.
Seemingly sensing this, Shangguan Xi left with the words, "I'm going back to my room first."
He then left in a hurry.
……
the other side.
Inside a private room at an upscale coffee shop in Hawaii.
Two women were sitting on either side of the coffee table, slowly savoring their coffee.
Neither of them spoke, but the tense atmosphere made their assistants, who were standing to the side, feel nervous.
"You can go out now, Mir."
Setting down her coffee cup, Amya began to speak.
Anna's voice followed immediately: "Mona, you too, go out for a walk first, come pick me up in an hour."
The two assistants were overjoyed upon hearing this.
"Yes, Your Royal Highness."
"Good boss."
The two spoke one after the other, then quickly pushed open the door and walked outside.
With a "bang" as the door closed, only Amya and Anna remained in the private room.
The two sat facing each other, their delicate faces revealing a less than friendly atmosphere.
"Is Miss Anna feeling any better?"
Amy took a sip of her coffee and spoke first.
She had sent Anna an invitation to her birthday party, but Anna ignored it. It wasn't until after the party that Anna's assistant came forward to explain, using "Anna's illness" as an excuse.
Anna, of course, knew what Amya meant and retorted without hesitation.
"Thank you for your concern, Your Highness. I am still not feeling well, but I can still perform on stage as a magician's assistant."
click!
Amy placed the coffee cup in her hand on the table with a crisp sound.
Her eyes narrowed slightly: "It seems Miss Anna is quite confident..."
"Isn't Miss Amya the same?"
Anna showed no fear, staring directly at Amya, neither giving way to the other.
