Shrewd Monk

She looked at him with eyes that said, 'Do you think I'm blind?'

"I like you because of your kindness, marry me and stop being a monk." 

Her acting skills were complete dog shit, and her vocal tone was like a flat stone board. 

Bai Yu could tell, but smiled widely and played along. 

"Amitabha, what a sin, what a sin. Although miss is exceptionally beautiful, I am after all a monk and thus can't marry. I am sure that you will find the right person within time."

Feng Jia smiled.

'My acting is truly great.'

"I'll follow you until you say yes."

"...Hiss....Huhhhh...." He breathed in deeply and breathed out deeply. 

He looked at her. 

His smile twitched ever so slightly, but his years of being a scam artist was being pushed to their absolute limits. 

"Miss, persistence is a virtue, but so is letting go." His right hand became a half prayer, "It would be better to find a man who's more handsome instead of chasing after a bald man such as myself."

"I'll follow you forever."

'Why the hell are you stalking me?'

This was what was running in his head at this exact moment. 

Anything that he said would result in the same answer over and over again. It was like talking to the sky or saying hi to the lake. It was pointless and now it was testing his patience.

"Miss..." 

He then looked shocked! His eyes widened, his mouth agape, sweat covered his face as he flinched. Bai Yu's shivering figure pointed behind Feng Jia. 

"B-B-Behind...."

Feng Jia immediately looked behind her!

She had her eyes full focused for any and all attack. But as she got into her stance, nothing happened. 

"What was behind..."

She turned to where the monk was and found that he was long gone. 

"Shrewd Monk! You dare trick me!?"

With a insane speed, she flew like the wind chasing after him. 

However, right at the spot where he was, he was actually just laying right above on the roof. 

"Yawn~ Interesting miss."

He jumped off the roof. 

While walking back, the rich fat man yelled out from behind him, "M-master please save me!!"

He held his hair in his hand as a bald patch could be seen. 

"Er...I'm sorry. All I can do is to pray for you now."

It wasn't that he couldn't help. 

But he had already stolen the rich mans money and didn't want to help for free. 

Plus the fact that he needed some consequence for their actions for his his scams to be seen as legit.

"I'm...sorry for your loss."

Like carrying a lifeless beloved in his arms, he could only cry his heart out.
