"Barring accidents, no, I don't think we will," Wei Zhao said with a smile. The identity of Male Robber was about to end here; that person had never been Wei Zhao to begin with, but someone Wei Zhao had disguised himself as. Now that the mission was over, he naturally would not go on playing Male Robber — unless he had nothing better to do.
"I see..." Yu Xiaoke had actually known the answer long ago, but only by asking it aloud did she truly let her hope die.
"All right, let's part here!" Wei Zhao said. "You're beautiful, and a kind-hearted girl as well. I wish you find the happiness that belongs to you!"
How could Wei Zhao have failed to notice Yu Xiaoke's feelings along the way? But he truly had no heart now to develop anything with her — one reason was the constraint of his identity, and the other was that his mind was fixed on Feng Xiaoxiao's safety.
"Oh..." Yu Xiaoke lowered her head, as though she already understood what Male Robber's words meant. But suddenly she raised her head again and, summoning all her courage, said, "Then... could you take off your mask and let me see your face?"
"No!" Wei Zhao refused flatly. What a joke — if he took it off, would she not recognize him at once?
"Just one look! Only one, and I won't tell anyone..." Yu Xiaoke pleaded.
"What difference would it make, looking or not looking?" Wei Zhao asked mildly.
"At least... let me have a beautiful memory..." Yu Xiaoke said after a moment's hesitation.
"All right, how about this: perhaps we will meet again, and I will appear as my true self. If you recognize me, I absolutely won't deny it. That should do, shouldn't it?" Wei Zhao said, somewhat helplessly.
"Oh..." Yu Xiaoke did not think deeply about it; she assumed Male Robber was only putting her off with those words.
"Well then, I'm going. Take care of yourself on the road!" With that, Wei Zhao turned away and, with General Weiwu and Tianlei Zhu, headed into the distance.
"Male Robber, I like you!" Watching Male Robber's receding back, Yu Xiaoke finally summoned her courage and shouted out what was in her heart. Yu Xiaoke was not a coy, hesitant girl; on the contrary, she dared to love and dared to hate, and she felt that if she did not speak her heart now, she might never have the chance again.
Wei Zhao's steps paused for a moment, but then he went on as before.
"I will find you!" Having cried out her feelings, Yu Xiaoke grew even bolder. "I don't know what you look like, but people with a dog and a pig at their side must be rare indeed. As long as I remember them, I'll be able to find you!"
Damn it! Hearing Yu Xiaoke's words, Wei Zhao nearly tripped and fell flat on his face!
