Bai Feng figured that since there was a convenience store right downstairs from her apartment, the short trip was close and safe enough.
Xu Fei nodded at her words, not objecting.
After Bai Feng left, Xu Fei quietly slipped out, taking the nearby emergency exit to head downstairs first.
Meanwhile, the men surveilling Bai Feng immediately reported to Qian Jiahang.
“Boss, the target’s out. Should we make a move?”
Qian Jiahang, lounging in his car, slapped the man upon hearing this.
“What are you talking about? Don’t you see all the cameras in front of that apartment?”
“And if I wanted to use brute force, would I need you useless lot? Keep waiting patiently!”
Qian Jiahang wasn’t fond of using forceful tactics to get a woman; he found it dull.
So he ordered his men to keep watching and wait for the right moment.
Xu Fei stayed hidden in a corner, quietly ensuring Bai Feng’s safety after she entered the convenience store.
Inside, Bai Feng browsed and realized this store wasn’t quite what she expected.
Though decently sized, it mostly sold daily necessities, with very few food items.
Not finding what she wanted, Bai Feng checked her phone and found another convenience store about five hundred meters away.
So she left, deciding to walk there.
This spontaneous decision created an opportunity for both Qian Jiahang and Xu Fei.
The lackeys in the van saw Bai Feng leave the store, not heading back but turning toward another street.
Excited, they quickly reported to Qian Jiahang again.
“Boss! Looks like we’ve got a real chance this time!”
Qian Jiahang peered out the window, noticing Bai Feng’s intent to leave, and slapped his chair in delight.
“Here’s our chance! Get ready, you know what I told you, right?”
“No problem, Boss, leave it to us!”
Qian Jiahang’s earlier instructions to his men were, of course, a classic hero-saves-the-damsel plan.
They’d soon pose as local thugs to corner Bai Feng, allowing Qian Jiahang to swoop in and “rescue” her.
Though the tactic was cliché, it was undeniably a solid plan for this situation.
Being a girl in a foreign land naturally made one feel less secure, making Qian Jiahang’s choice rather clever.
What he didn’t account for was Xu Fei, lurking nearby.
After switching stores, Bai Feng indeed found plenty of food and drinks she liked at the second convenience store.
Satisfied, she carried a large bag and headed back home.
In a nearby dark alley, Qian Jiahang and his crew were ready to act, but before they could, they ran into someone else.
Naturally, it was Xu Fei, who had just used his clairvoyant vision to observe and discern their entire scheme.
“Isn’t this the opportunity I’ve been dreaming of?”
