CCTV News: In Beijing, Chen Shuting brings a woman to her door.

“You’re short of money right now, what would it mean for me to take your money at this time? No, I don’t want this money no matter what you say. You can take it back and use it yourself, you don’t need to give it to me.”

However, Fifth Master showed a very resolute attitude at this moment. He knew in his heart that if he accepted the money, it would bring more trouble to Gao Qilin later.

"This……"

Seeing Fifth Master's firm attitude, Gao Qilin was at a loss for words.

"Let's not dwell on this anymore. It's settled then. You can take those ships with you when you leave. Alright, enough of that. We're here to eat, so we should focus on the food. Try this; it's my favorite dish..."

Seeing that Gao Qilin didn't know what to say, Fifth Master didn't give him a chance to continue and started to change the subject.

Faced with this situation, Gao Qilin couldn't say anything, so he could only focus all his attention on what to eat, occasionally replying with a few words when Fifth Master was being cultured.

Just as Fifth Master was having a good time, Gao Qilin noticed that the teapot on their table was empty.

Upon seeing this, Gao Qilin immediately shouted:

"Waiter, we're out of water!"

However, there were too many people here, and Gao Qilin's voice was quickly drowned out by the crowd, and no one heard him at all.

Gao Qilin called out five or six times in one breath, but no one showed any interest in coming over.

This annoyed Gao Qilin, who couldn't help but complain:

"What's going on? So much time has passed, why hasn't a single person come over? Does this mean their restaurant doesn't want to stay in business anymore?"

After saying that, Gao Qilin quickly got up, wanting to have a good argument with the waiter.

Seeing this, Fifth Master immediately stopped him and said:

"There are so many people in the restaurant today, it's normal that they can't hear us. Besides, this is my favorite place. If you cause any trouble, that would be terrible. So let's just stay put and eat in peace. It's just some tea, I'll get it for you."

After saying this, Fifth Master got up, picked up the teapot, and prepared to leave.

"How could I let you fetch water? You've done so much for me. If I made you do such a small thing, it would be terrible. Just sit there and wait for me to come back."

At this moment, Fifth Master snatched the teapot from Fifth Master's hand and left as quickly as possible.

Fifth Master didn't want to argue with him. After seeing Gao Qilin leave like that, he didn't say anything more and instead focused his attention on the food in front of him.

"The food at this restaurant is absolutely amazing; I never get tired of it, no matter how many times I eat there."

Just as Fifth Master was reflecting on these things, Cai Zhongtai immediately got up and took action.

At this moment, he quickly followed behind Gao Qilin, and when he saw him arrive at the water-fetching area, he immediately stopped him and said in an apologetic tone:

"I'm so sorry about earlier. I was dealing with other things, so I didn't come over immediately when I heard you call me. You want some tea, right? I can take care of that. You can just wait over there."

......... .... ...

"Are you a waiter here? Does this place have no requirements regarding the dress code for its waiters?"

Seeing Cai Zhongtai's dirty appearance, Gao Qilin looked puzzled. He carefully examined the man and realized he didn't look like a waiter at all.

"I just started working here a couple of days ago, so my clothes haven't arrived yet. This is all I can do. If my clothes affect your appetite, then I can only apologize."

"It's nothing. I was just curious when I asked. Once the tea is ready, please remember to bring it to my table. I have someone to keep me company, so I won't wait there. Just remember to bring it over."

Seeing so many people getting water, Gao Qilin felt there was no need for him to stay, and then walked towards the dining table.

"Didn't you go to get tea? Why did you come back empty-handed? What, did you not find where to get water? It's right behind us, just walk straight ahead."

When Fifth Master saw Gao Qilin return empty-handed, he looked very puzzled.

Chapter 577 Being Troubled by the Waiter

"I found a place to get water, but there are too many places, and it would be troublesome to wait. However, I met a waiter on the way, so I thought I would ask him to help me get this done."

"Oh, I see. Let's talk about that topic again. I haven't had enough of it yet."

Seeing this, Fifth Master didn't suspect anything, after all, the restaurant's service was always very good.

And so the two of them started chatting again.

At this moment, Cai Zhongtai had already filled the water bottle. Seeing that no one was around, he immediately took out a powder packet from his pocket, poured all the contents into the bottle, and quickly put it away with a "943" gesture. Only after confirming that no one had seen his actions did he feel at ease, straighten his posture, and walk towards where they were.

Because Fifth Master was engrossed in his conversation with Gao Qilin, he didn't notice what the waiter looked like. When someone brought him tea, he simply took it and turned his attention back to Gao Qilin.

But when Cai Zhongtai saw that it was Fifth Master who took it, he felt uneasy, fearing that he would be recognized.

However, his nervousness was completely unnecessary. Fifth Master didn't even notice him and kept his attention focused on the topic long after Cai Zhongtai had left.

Seeing Fifth Master like this, Cai Zhongtai finally felt relieved and left as quickly as possible, stopping by the window to wait and see how they would react after drinking the tea.

But as he was engrossed in watching, a waiter came over again and said:

"Sir, you've been sitting here for over an hour. Why don't you order something? As you can see, it gets even busier at this time of day, and many people don't have a place to eat. If you really don't want to eat, would you please give this seat to someone else?"

"Who said I'm not eating? I just haven't decided what I want to eat yet. I'll tell you when I've decided. Don't say those things in front of me. Get out of here. I'm not in a good mood. If you keep talking like that, I'll yell at you!"

Seeing the waiter chattering on and on, Cai Zhongtai looked very annoyed.

But this is a place where talented people gather; what kind of people haven't the waiters seen? He remained remarkably calm in the face of Cai Zhongtai's behavior, saying:

"Since you've put it that way, then I have no choice but to resort to extreme measures to deal with this matter."

After saying that, the waiter immediately contacted the security personnel via walkie-talkie.

Upon hearing that someone was causing trouble, the security personnel immediately rushed over.

However, they did not take action. Instead, they said very seriously before doing so:

"Sir, please cooperate and leave. If you do not cooperate, we will have no choice but to use other means to make you leave. If anything happens then, we will not be responsible."

Although they weren't speaking very loudly, there were so many of them that as soon as they said that, everyone's attention was drawn to him, even Fifth Master glanced at him.

After just one glance, Fifth Master felt a sense of familiarity and said:

"Strange, this person looks so familiar. I think I've seen him before."

"Fifth Master, you come into contact with so many people every day, it's perfectly normal to recognize a few..."

"No, I have to go over and see what's going on. If it's my friend who's having this problem, I can lend a hand."

After saying that, Fifth Master got up and walked towards that place.

At this moment, Cai Zhongtai still wanted to argue with the security personnel, but just as he was about to speak, he noticed that Gao Qilin was walking towards him.

This made Cai Zhongtai realize that he could no longer stay there, so he made up an excuse to turn around and leave.

But the security personnel weren't very talkative. Seeing this, they stopped him again and said:

"Do you think this is a place you can come and go as you please? We've stopped you now, and we won't let you leave without giving you an explanation."

"I already said I didn't want to eat anything before, I didn't say I wouldn't give you money, I understand. You're trying to get something out of me, right? Fine, I'll give it to you."

As Fifth Master drew closer and closer, Cai Zhongtai had no choice but to use this method to extricate himself.

After saying that, he took out all his money and threw it on the table.

Seeing Cai Zhongtai's lavish spending, the others immediately fell silent, and the waiter quickly said:

"It was just a misunderstanding. Please don't take it personally. If you have something to think about, just think about it there. If you need anything from me, just call me anytime. I'll be there whenever you need me."

After saying that, the waiter left, and in no time the crowd dispersed, leaving only Cai Zhongtai alone.

"Those people are really something, always trying to cause me trouble."

Chapter 578 Someone Poisoned Him

After they left, Cai Zhongtai couldn't help but complain, but he quickly turned his attention back to what was in front of him.

At this moment, he noticed that Fifth Master was very close to him, and in order not to be recognized, Cai Zhongtai had no choice but to hide under the table.

Because the table was so large and covered with something, it was impossible to tell from the outside that someone was under it.

Seeing this scene, Fifth Master looked very confused and couldn't help but complain:

"That's strange. I remember there were people gathered here just now, but they all disappeared when I came here."

"Fine, if you don't want me to watch it, I won't. I don't care about that kind of stuff anyway."

After saying that, Fifth Master turned and left without any intention of lingering there.

Seeing Fifth Master leave, Cai Zhongtai finally breathed a sigh of relief, and thought to himself:

"What's wrong with me today? My luck is so bad. I almost got caught several times, but luckily I'm pretty agile and didn't get caught."

After saying that, Cai Zhongtai sat down and turned his attention back to Gao Qilin and the others, observing their every move.

"What's going on over there? What caused the argument?"

Upon seeing Fifth Master return, Gao Qilin couldn't help but ask questions. Although he hadn't gone over there, he was very curious about the situation there.

"I don't know why. I had just arrived when it was all over. I wanted to ask someone, but there wasn't a soul around. Faced with this situation, I had no choice but to give in."

Faced with Gao Qilin's questioning, Fifth Master told him everything about his situation, and after he finished speaking, he looked very helpless.

"If you don't know, that's fine. This matter doesn't have much to do with us anyway. As long as we do our own thing, that's fine. Fifth Master, you must be thirsty after talking so much just now, right? The tea should be getting cold by now. Let's have some first."

After saying that, Gao Qilin poured out all the tea and took a small sip first.

But the moment he took a sip, Gao Qilin immediately realized something was wrong and spat out everything in his mouth.

Upon seeing Gao Qilin's appearance, Fifth Master thought there was something wrong with his health, so he immediately went forward to inquire about the situation.
