With Shen Guoguo turning a blind eye and tacitly allowing it, Jiang Linyuan played the bandit and openly carried off the Starry Sky Projector.
In terms of the result, it seemed to be no different from what had happened in the book.
But the process was completely different. Department Head, this wasn't your sacrifice—it was my theft.
I, Jiang Linyuan, was the Great Thief Official!
After leaving Shen Wanyu's room, they wandered around before returning to the place where they had stayed on their first night in Yanjing.
"I'm going to take a shower first."

"Want to come with me?"
"Go play somewhere else, Little Virgin."
Jiang Linyuan sat on the bed and replied.
Su Muzhi gave a chuckle and shut the door with a click.
Listening to the faint rustling from inside the bathroom, Jiang Linyuan began thinking about the book again.
There was far too much ambiguity in its account of events.
Little Su was fairly straightforward: two arguments, two hospital stays.
The first argument had probably happened after she talked with Xiao Yilin, while the second had been after she and Department Head watched the stars.

Jiang Linyuan couldn't shake the feeling that something was off. Little Su knew the Saint of Thieves was her attending physician, yet still let her treat her? Why not
