Chapter 1089: Chapter 1085: Bold Speculation

"You!..." Ban Qiyun was both angry and furious, but realized that Xiao Tian was actually retaliating against her previous actions.

However, Xiao Tian looked her up and down, muttering to himself, "Doesn’t look that flirtatious, how can she be so frivolous?"

While speaking, he sighed deeply, "Truly, it’s just like that old saying... Morals are declining, and people’s hearts have lost their integrity!"

"Lost integrity? Seriously your sister’s lost integrity!" Ban Qiyun finally couldn’t hold back and cursed, grabbing Xiao Tian’s face, her gaze fierce beyond comparison!

As their eyes met, Xiao Tian’s face flushed red again, "I... I say, miss, I... I... I’m a decent person!"

"Oh?" Ban Qiyun laughed in anger, "Are you saying I’m not a decent person?"

Xiao Tian seemed very terrified, trembling as he spoke, "A decent person... Who would stand so close? There’s a saying, oh, with the distance between us now, it’s either preparing for a fight or for a kiss!"

"Ah!" Ban Qiyun screamed sharply, hurriedly releasing Xiao Tian’s collar, recalling that face just inches away, her heart pounding wildly, a feeling of panic she had never experienced before.

At this moment, thinking again of Xiao Tian’s previous words, she immediately wanted to use her cultivation technique, intent on fighting him first, otherwise, the anger in her heart would truly be hard to calm.

But Xiao Tian’s face had already turned solemn, raising the letter he just held, speaking with a heavy tone, "Now we can confirm that the person watching us is either the same person, or the same organization or force."

Ban Qiyun saw the letter in Xiao Tian’s hand, then looked at the letter in her own hand, and her anger suddenly dispersed.

In the next moment, they both simultaneously extended the hands holding their letters forward, as if comparing them side by side.

The contents of their letters were identical except for a slight difference at the beginning.

The small differences at the beginning, they both understood... It was the difference in forms of address.

After a long silence, Ban Qiyun seemed to feel a sense of melancholy, and said, "It seems that the person hiding in the shadows didn’t take us seriously at all, not even bothering to change the content."

Xiao Tian, however, solemnly said, "I have a bold hypothesis..."

"Let’s hear it?" Ban Qiyun looked at Xiao Tian, feeling inexplicably complex, unable to guess his thoughts.

"Is it possible that the recipients of such letters are far more than just us two?" Xiao Tian looked straight into Ban Qiyun’s eyes and said, "To be honest, if not for chance, I wouldn’t have thought that the person watching me wasn’t watching only me."

Ban Qiyun fell silent and then slowly nodded, obviously feeling deeply what Xiao Tian had said.

For a moment, there was a feeling of shared hardship, a sense of belonging.

This feeling startled Ban Qiyun, and she quickly retracted her thoughts, not allowing them to spread further.

"You dared to imitate me before, so you must have some knowledge of the people around me," Xiao Tian asked, "Is there anyone we both know?"

After thinking for a moment, Xiao Tian added, "Even if the relationship isn’t that close, even insignificant people can count."

Xiao Tian’s question made Ban Qiyun feel this could be a good approach, so she seriously thought about it, but after a long while, she shook her head in disappointment, "No."

Xiao Tian didn’t reply, just nodded simply, not surprised by the outcome; if the person in the shadows was that easy to find, it would indeed be strange!

However, this time it couldn’t be said that there was no gain; at least he had realized that there was another woman named Ban Qiyun who was experiencing the same plight as himself.

As for the identity mark of the Dark List, Xiao Tian truly didn’t care much!

For him at present, the identity of being first on the Dark List isn’t necessarily a good thing, with a year’s promise with Kojima Minako and the hope of meeting Liu Hanyan as soon as possible, the so-called first place on the Dark List isn’t that significant!

Thinking of this, Xiao Tian suddenly curiously looked at Ban Qiyun, and said, "You want the first place on the Dark List position so badly, there must be some hidden reasons, right?"

At this moment, the breeze blew, moving Ban Qiyun’s hair, while Xiao Tian lit a cigarette and quietly awaited her answer.

After a long pause, Ban Qiyun spoke, "I can only tell you that this position is far more complicated than a mere first on the Dark List, and one day when you understand it, you might regret it!"

Xiao Tian nodded without further questioning, exhaling a puff of smoke, "Since that’s the case, you’ve achieved your goal too. Shouldn’t you give me the antidote now?"

Ban Qiyun originally wanted to say outright, "Actually, I didn’t poison," but instead asked, "Are those two people your reason for giving up the first place on the Dark List?"

Not knowing why Ban Qiyun asked this, Xiao Tian still nodded, "Yes, and partly because I really don’t care about being first... Whether you believe it or not!"

"I believe!" Ban Qiyun nodded earnestly, then her tone returned to coldness, "I haven’t poisoned those two people; they only took candy beans available at supermarkets..."

While speaking, she suddenly looked at Xiao Tian, and said slowly, "Do you believe me?"

"I do!" Xiao Tian said with a smile, "Why not believe?"

Upon hearing the reply, Ban Qiyun’s feelings truly became extremely complex, not knowing whether if Xiao Tian had known earlier that she indeed hadn’t poisoned Lin Bingxuan and Le Yaoyao, and was just verifying, would they have fought fiercely?

Thinking, the possibility is there, and it’s very likely they’d fight fiercely!

"Alright, I should go now!" Ban Qiyun turned her back, activating her body technique slowly, and said, "I bet I’ll be the first to pull out the one spying on us, then I’ll find you and tell you who that person is."

Xiao Tian laughed, "Since you’re so sure, I’ll say thank you in advance; however... what if I pull out that person first?"

"Then I’ll agree to one of your conditions, within my capabilities, without any refusal at all!" Ban Qiyun said heroically.

"Including seeing your true face?" Xiao Tian joked lightly.

Ban Qiyun was silent for a long time before saying, "If you can oust that person first, what’s wrong with allowing you to see the true face?"

Thinking, then I’d scare the hell out of you, you bastard, with my unparalleled beauty!

"It’s a deal then!" Xiao Tian said with a faint smile.

"Aren’t you curious about how I’ll use your jade token?" Ban Qiyun was about to leave, but inexplicably asked such a question.
