For the past few days, Xia Zheng had been vigilantly guarding this spot to catch the thief.
But perhaps because the little thief knew he was on the lookout here, for so many days not even a glimpse was caught, let alone apprehending the culprit.
Xia Zheng led Lin Yuan by the hand and they quietly hid behind a large rock on the opposite side of a narrow walkway, intently staring at the small window there.
Lin Yuan glanced at the large bamboo basket standing next to the large rock and couldn't help but snicker.
Xia Zheng turned his head and inquired with his eyes: What's funny?
To avoid being detected by the little thief, the two of them had dodged all the servants in the General Mansion on their way here, agreeing not to speak and to communicate with hand gestures if needed.
Lin Yuan squeezed her eyes towards the large bamboo basket.
Xia Zheng glanced at it and immediately his eyes turned into crescents, giving Lin Yuan a smug look as if to say, "Aren't I clever?"
