Your eyes sparkled with anticipation as you waited to hear Qin Che's praise.

"It's barely enough to put on a show."

Your face instantly fell, and you pouted, "...That's a rather weak statement indeed."

Seeing your expression, Qin Che added, "It's a bit difficult for you to grasp this aura in a short time, but you can use external objects to help you."

He put down his wine glass, took your hand, and walked straight outside.

You quickly caught up with him, asking, "Wait, where are we going? Aren't we continuing the special training?"

Qin Che raised his hand and pinched your mouth shut: "Rule number two: Speak less."

You pretend to bite him, and he lets go of you while laughing.

Ten minutes later, you followed Qin Che to a high-end shopping mall near the N109 district.

Although it was already midnight outside, the mall was brightly lit.

"Here we are, right here."

"What are we doing at the mall? We already bought so much at the auction, isn't that enough?"

"I'll get you some new clothes." He looked down at the rows of sunglasses displayed in the high-end glass case. "Besides, you said you couldn't bring things from the auction to work, so these are better."

You look at those sunglasses with their gold rims and diamonds shimmering with a captivating glint, exuding an air of "luxury."

These aren't much better, are they?

"Is this what you mean by 'external things'?" You tried your best to swallow your disagreement.

Qin Che stopped in front of a counter: "Since you can't be mysterious, just use sunglasses to cover your eyes. It will have the same effect."

He pointed with his finger: "Bring out these two models."

The sales assistant politely replied, "Yes, sir."

You watched as the sales assistant took out the two pairs of sunglasses and glanced at the price tags.

"I knew it, this price is enough for me to buy several truckloads of bullets... and it's not even that much cheaper than what we bought before..."

Qin Che didn't rush to refute you, but instead chuckled and said, "Do you usually use weapons to measure prices?"

As soon as Qin Che finished speaking, you noticed that the saleswoman's gaze towards you changed.

You froze for a moment, thinking that although this was N109 district, there were still ordinary people living normal lives here, so you quickly laughed it off and said, "Ha...hahaha...of course I was just joking!"

"This joke is very fitting for your current 'identity'."

Qin Che put on the sunglasses he had taken out with one hand and handed over the other pair he was holding.

"Come on, try it on."

He tilted his head slightly, his long, slender fingers brushing along the edge of the glasses frame.

Beneath the black lenses, you could vaguely see a pair of deep red eyes. The look in their eyes when they looked at you was not as sharp as it was in the bar. It was as if, whenever they looked at you, their eyes would become more tender.

"That's not right." You frowned slightly.

"Hmm?" Qin Che raised an eyebrow at you.

"Come on, let's get into the mood and remember the first time you saw me, yeah, the way you looked at a dog."

"Did I look at you like that?" Qin Che frowned as he recalled.

"It's just a figure of speech, don't worry about the details. Just try giving me a cold look, you always seem too gentle to me right now." You pinched his chin and spoke bluntly.

"Only you would use the word 'gentle' to describe me." Although Qin Che said this, he listened to you and composed himself.
