The please gets a little side eye because honestly he wasn't expecting it, it's a glimpse of a person Xie didn't even know was there and now he wonders just how long this has been planned, did he arrive knowing he wanted to steal Xie?
Well, clearly not, but did he arrive knowing he wanted to steal Zhao Jing's familiar?
The conversation, too, draws his attention, information and inferences queueing up in his head to be sorted through and figured out. More questions for his ever-growing list.
"Just some personal things. Documents, money, stuff." He shrugs "It won't take me long."
His own phone rings, then, making him flinch. The only person it rings for is Yifu. He takes it out of his pocket, stares at it until it rings out, until he gets a notification that he has a voicemail.
"I'll leave this, too. When we leave the car." He says quietly, dragging his eyes away from the phone to see they're nearly at his building "Park anywhere, I'll be back in five."
