Shi Yue didn't know how to thank him: "Zhou Mian, I leave this matter to you."

Just then, the coffee Zhou Mian ordered for her was delivered. He helped to add sugar and condensed milk, stirred it before sending it to Shi Yue: "You don't need to say such polite words to me, it's just a little effort."

He stared at Shi Yue's face for a few times, but he always felt that something was wrong with her expression. She also had a nasal voice when she spoke, and asked worriedly: "Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"

Shi Yue took a sip of the coffee. The temperature was just right and the sweetness was right. She explained: "It's just a slight cold, it doesn't matter."

Zhou Mian smiled when he heard this: "If you have a cold, just eat Sichuan food. I recently discovered a restaurant. Do you want to try it together in the evening?"

Speaking of eating, Shi Yue remembered the last time she had dinner with him and was sent back drunk by him.

In addition, she wanted to ask someone for help, and Shi Yue planned to ask him for help in the evening. As soon as she agreed, Qiu Xichen's message was sent.

"Come to a party with me tonight."

Shi Yue thought it would be the same as before, just entertainment and the like. As the young lady of the Qiu family, these were her obligations.

Zhou Mian was just about to call to book a private room when he saw her looking strange: "What? What's the matter?"

Shi Yue looked embarrassed and said a little apologetically: "We can't have dinner together tonight. I have something to do at the moment..."

Zhou Mian smiled faintly, "Since I have something to do, I'll just make an appointment next time."

Pedestrians are hurrying on the road, and fallen ginkgo leaves are blowing in the wind. In the square opposite the cafe, children are laughing with white pigeons.

Today is a rare sunny day. The autumn afternoon sun shines warmly through the glass.

If Shi Yue pays a little attention, he can find the familiar Bentley parked on the other side of the road.

Behind the car window, Qiu Xichen's eyes were locked on the woman sitting by the floor-to-ceiling window of the cafe. She was wearing a slim turtleneck sweater and a long woolen skirt. Her black hair was draped softly behind her, with a slight smile on her lips.

But it was towards that man.

Secretary Jiang sat in front and handed him the tablet: "Mr. Qiu, the bidding results for the land in Zhoucun, west of the city, have come out."

Qiu Xichen withdrew his gaze, glanced at the bidding company and price, and asked with a cold expression, "What's the reaction from the Shen family?"

The company that won the bid was Shen Zexi's company. His clothing business has grown bigger and bigger, and he recently plans to turn to the real estate market.

"The Shen family has been looking for partners recently and wants to introduce funds." Secretary Jiang answered truthfully.

Qiu Xichen sneered: "How can Zhou Cun chew off such a big piece of fat? Just keep staring over there."

Secretary Jiang glanced out of the car window and said worriedly: "Mr. Qiu, are you still investigating the car accident?"

The car accident that occurred at the Sea Bridge was not an accident, but someone deliberately framed it. Qiu Xichen never gave up looking for the person behind the scenes. This investigation found Shen Zexi.

Now that the target has been identified, all that's left is to look for clues.

"Stop for now, don't alert him, let him put down his guard and have a good time for a few days."

In the coffee shop, Shi Yue stood up with her bag in hand, preparing to say goodbye to Zhou Mian, before Qiu Xichen ordered the driver to leave.

It gets dark earlier and earlier, and it's only after six o'clock. The neon signs on the streets light up, changing endlessly, and the entire city of Kyoto is plunged into a sea of ​​lights, which is dazzling and dazzling.

When Shi Yue arrived at Liujin Club, before she could ask which floor the private room was on, a waiter came forward to greet her.

"Mrs. Qiu, please come with me."

Shi Yue came here for the first time, but he had already heard the name of Liujin Club. To become a member, one must have assets of over 100 million. It is a gold-selling den for wealthy people in Kyoto City.

It is said that the waiters inside are all highly educated beauties.

The splendid decoration seemed to be correct. Even the decorative paintings on the wall were auction items from abroad last year. Shi Yue couldn't help but click his tongue.

The party Shi Yue thought was Qiu Xichen's work entertainment. Bai Ke entered the private room and saw several young men in the room gathered around the mahjong table to play cards, and several women sitting aside either watching cards or playing cards.

While chatting, she almost thought she was in the wrong place.

This is obviously a private party.

Qiu Xichen sat at the card table, holding a cigarette between his fingers, his eyebrows lazy and indifferent, until the last player finished playing a card, he showed the cards with both hands, knocked on the table with a lighter: "Hu cards."

The other three people suddenly wailed: "Third Master, can you let us go? You have won all afternoon."

Zheng Shen was sitting on the sofa in the corner, with his hands on a young girl, chatting and laughing with others, and was the first to notice Shi Yue's arrival.

He immediately let go of the woman beside him and stood up to greet her: "Hey, sister-in-law is here, come in and sit down."

Only then did Qiu Xichen notice her arrival, and his dark eyes looked at her calmly, without any emotion.

Seeing that he didn't respond at all, Shi Yue felt a little strange, so she followed Zheng Shen and sat down on the sofa.

There were appraising glances all around. Shi Yue was used to such occasions, but it felt strange to think that these people were all Qiu Xichen's friends.

Zheng Shen was very attentive, bringing her snacks and pouring water, "Sister-in-law, we have to play for a while before dinner, do you want to play cards with everyone?"

Shi Yue refused again and again: "No, I can't play cards."

Zheng Shen was bored. The people at the card table thought his cards were poor and wouldn't let him play. He was about to join another table, but was a little disappointed when he learned that she wouldn't.

Who knows the next moment, Qiu Xichen suddenly stood up: "Come here, I will teach you how to play."

Everyone immediately looked like they were cheating on each other. How could the third master, who rarely had women around him, have the patience to teach others how to play cards?

Zheng Shen saw the excitement and didn't think it was a big deal. He started making noises and said to the other brothers at the card table: "Why don't you seize the opportunity and win back the money you just lost from my sister-in-law?"

Shi Yue looked at the chips in their hands and knew that they were playing a big game. She still refused and said: "Forget it, I really don't know how."

Qiu Xichen smoked out his cigarette, held her hand and pulled her over, asking her to sit down in her seat while he stood aside.

Shi Yue was pushed to the shelf. She had never been exposed to this before and couldn't even recognize all the cards. She was a little helpless.

Several friends nearby were determined to win back their money, so they started a game regardless of whether Shi Yue wanted to play or not.

Seeing that she wasn't even good at catching cards, Qiu Xi chuckled softly, stretched out his hand to help her touch the cards, and then straightened them out for her.

Someone immediately protested: "Hey, Third Master, didn't you agree to let my sister-in-law come and play? Why did you get started?"

Qiu Xi gave her a sideways glance: "You said I'm here to teach you. Since when did you let her play?"
