Upon hearing Tong Yaqi's words, Qin Ruojing turned her face away, coughed a few times, and said with much hesitation, "I... I'm just going to make a temporary retreat. Once you guys are done, I'll show up again. Yaqi, do you think that's okay?"
"This..." Tong Yaqi looked at Qin Ruojing, thinking how utterly unreliable those words sounded. No matter how she looked at it, she felt Qin Ruojing was joking. She rubbed her forehead, then gave a sarcastic smile and said, "Since you're asking me so sincerely, perhaps... I can reluctantly agree?"
"Great, great! Then I'll take it as you've agreed!"
Qin Ruojing's eyes lit up, as if afraid Tong Yaqi would backtrack, she quickly added, "Starting today... uh, let's make it tomorrow. I'll officially start implementing this plan. With your help, I don't believe I can't get it done! But Yaqi, you absolutely can't let a third person know about this. You must keep it a secret for me."
"Mhm, don't worry, I won't tell anyone."
