Lin Fan was just about to sneak away with the tea box. Such good tea leaves are rare, and he estimated he could auction them for a good price!
But as soon as Lin Fan's hand touched the tea box, a dark shadow suddenly flashed by.
Lin Fan was taken aback and quickly tried to withdraw his hand.
Having advanced to the Huajin level, Lin Fan's speed was incredibly fast, but when faced with the shadow, he could only pull his hand halfway before it was slapped hard on the back, reddening it!
"Damn! Old man, are you crazy? Why hit me so hard?" Lin Fan grumbled displeasedly.
"Taking someone's belongings without notifying the owner—is that what your mentor taught you?" Ye Shouxin said coldly.
"Who says I wouldn't tell you? I saw you sleeping soundly and didn't want to disturb you, that's all!" Lin Fan quickly fabricated a lie; he couldn't exactly admit that he wanted to steal Ye Shouxin's tea leaves, could he?
Lin Fan couldn't afford to lose face here!
