This Person Has a Bit of Social Bullshit Syndrome

"Are you the newcomer who injured Qiu Wuyi on the dueling stage today?"

Qiu Wuji asked in a deep, muffled voice.

Before Tang Yu could answer, two outer sect disciples surnamed Qiu quickly spoke up, "Senior Brother Wuji, he's not that newcomer."

"Yes, senior brother, I'm also new here today. My name is Ling Jun. Are you looking for Senior Brother Ye Qiu? I know where he lives."

Tang Yu chuckled. So, it turned out they were looking for trouble with Ye Qiu, simply because everyone was a newcomer and they mistook him for Ye Qiu.

"I see. Then, junior brother, could you please lead the way?"

Qiu Wuji was quite satisfied with Tang Yu's attitude, mainly because he was moved by Tang Yu's sincere recognition upon meeting him.

This kid is an honest man.

"Okay, senior brother."

Tang Yu nodded and happily ran off to lead the way for Qiu Wuji.

He had just asked the three people who helped with the cleaning, and they actually knew where Ye Qiu lived.

After leading Qiu Wuji and the others out, Tang Yu walked for a while and then pointed to the courtyard where Ye Qiu lived.

"That Senior Brother Ye lives here, but I don't know which room exactly."

"Okay, thank you."

Qiu Wuji thanked him and strode into the courtyard, intending to cause trouble.

"Then I'll head back now. It's been cold lately, so remember to cover yourself well with blankets at night."

Tang Yu waved her hand, then happily ran to a secluded spot some distance away to sit down and prepare to watch the fun.

Sure enough, a few minutes later Qiu Wuji came out with a dark face.

Ye Qiu came out with him, and the two headed straight for the arena, knowing they were about to have another fight.

Tang Yu didn't have much hope for Qiu Wuji.

After all, the difference in strength was obvious, so he was destined to be Ye Qiu's stepping stone.

But after thinking about it, he decided to go and have some fun.

After walking a short distance, Ye Qiu suddenly noticed a shifty-looking fellow sneaking into the courtyard where Ye Qiu lived.

"Thief?"

Tang Yu looked surprised, hesitated for a moment, but decided to go and see what this guy was up to.

After deliberately walking lightly, Tang Yu entered the courtyard where Ye Qiu lived and glanced around, finding that all four room doors were tightly closed.

However, the sound of rummaging through drawers and cabinets could be heard from one of the rooms.

This thievery was rather blatant.

Based on Tang Yu's judgment, this guy was probably a repeat offender who was so bold because he knew Ye Qiu wouldn't be back for a while.

"I wonder if there's anything good in there."

With a chuckle, Tang Yu quickly walked over and pushed the door open.

The middle-aged man, who was rummaging through things in the house, was startled. He turned around and realized that it wasn't Ye Qiu who had returned, but another newcomer who had just arrived that day.

This made him feel slightly relieved, but also extremely nervous.

Yes, he is a typical repeat offender.

Before I joined the Nine Heavens Alliance.

The sect he belonged to was jokingly referred to as the Thief Sect" by the local ancient martial arts sects.

Later, after being recruited by the Nine Heavens Alliance because of his outstanding talent, he still didn't change his hobby.

He would often sneak into the rooms of his fellow students and steal some good stuff.

The person he's targeting today is Ye Qiu.

What he didn't expect was that he had been targeted the moment he stepped inside.

And how come I didn't even notice him getting close?

"What are you doing, senior brother? Stealing something?"

Tang Yu had already noticed the two small bottles in the guy's hand and knew that Ye Qiu must have left them at home.

"I advise you not to meddle in other people's business and avoid creating trouble for yourself, understand?"

The middle-aged man deliberately kept a dark expression on his face, and his mustache twitched as he spoke, making him look somewhat comical.

"No, I'm a person with moral principles. If I witness a crime, I must expose it."

Tang Yu stretched out her hand with a serious expression and said, "Unless you give me half, I will definitely report this to the elders."

"..."

The middle-aged man hadn't expected to encounter such a shameless person. After hesitating for a moment, he tossed a bottle to Tang Yu.

Tang Yu opened the bottle and smelled it, discovering that it contained several healing pills.

This stuff is far inferior to what I made myself.

Tang Yu then disdainfully tossed the bottle back, saying, "Never mind, you keep it, I don't want it."

"..."

The middle-aged man caught the bottle and felt somewhat bewildered by this guy's thought process.

But after seeing Tang Yu was about to leave...

He rushed over and blocked the door to prevent Tang Yu from leaving, asking in a low voice.

"What exactly do you mean? You think the loot isn't enough? This guy didn't bring anything good, but you want this short knife?"

After saying that, he reluctantly handed the short knife that he had finally managed to find to Tang Yu.

The dagger had a golden scabbard with a golden dragon carved on it and several gemstones inlaid on it; it was clearly a valuable item.

However, Tang Yu shook his head; he wasn't interested in that.

"So what do you want to do? Are you going to report me to the elder for stealing? That won't do you any good."

The middle-aged man got impatient. How could someone be so stubborn?

"Stealing? But I don't think you did anything wrong by stealing, so why are you reporting the elder?"

Tang Yu asked with a puzzled look on her face.

"???"

The middle-aged man stared wide-eyed at the guy's bewildering statement.

"Look, you took this knife. If you hadn't, what would Senior Brother Ye have done with it? Save someone? Impossible, right? If it's for murder, taking the knife is for his own good, isn't it?"

Tang Yu asked with a smile.

The middle-aged man nodded subconsciously, as if there was some truth to it.

"Besides, what's wrong with stealing?"

Tang Yu said righteously, "Have you ever heard this saying before?"

"What did you say?"

"In our time, migrant workers who build houses can't live in high-rise buildings and have to eke out a living in dilapidated buildings. People who are engaged in production have nothing, while those who don't engage in production have everything."

"Instead of begging for what you deserve, fight your enemies step by step. As long as you have a conscience, you can steal without any scruples."

Tang Yu spoke with great passion and fervor.

The middle-aged man suddenly had a revelation.

After years of petty theft, this was the first time he felt so noble.

The look in his eyes as he looked at Tang Yu instantly became more adoring, as if his parents had given him life and his junior brother had truly understood him.

"Junior brother, don't say anymore. I'm giving all of these to you as a token of friendship. If you ever need any help in the future, just let me know."

Wiping away his tears, the middle-aged man stuffed all the things he had stolen from Ye Qiu into Tang Yu's hands.

"No, no, no, you're too kind, senior brother. I won't accept the gift. I'll definitely ask you for help if I need it in the future."

Tang Yu was waiting for these words. She wanted him to help her steal some Heart-Questioning Incense later. But for now, there was no rush. She wanted to watch Ye Qiu fight.
