I bought a secret manual of the Hehuan Sect for ten yuan.

"Take it back to your Uncle Fu, so people won't say you're freeloading!"

Qin Ge shoved the entire bag into Shen Yulan's hands. "You go back first, I have other things to do!"

More than half an hour later, Qin Ge arrived at Jiangcheng Hotel.

"Why did you let me come back? Isn't it okay that Gu Yuexuan isn't keeping an eye on things?"

Not long after Qin Ge entered the room, Xie Bingning returned. Her military green overalls couldn't hide her impressive figure.

"It's alright. Mo Yitang probably already knows I'm in Jiangcheng. You probably won't gain anything by continuing to keep an eye on things."

"You saw it, right? Jia Yun, the manager of Gu Yue Xuan, should be from Mo Yi Tang, right?"

Qin Ge felt that the robbers were likely after him, and that their purpose was to test him.

But he couldn't understand how the people from Moyi Hall knew he would come to Guyue Pavilion today and arranged this whole thing in advance.

Qin Ge carefully recalled the events again and again, and found that no one had followed him from the time he left the Fu family home to the time he went to Guyue Pavilion.

"Yes," Xie Bingning answered readily. "Jia Yun is mainly responsible for the information transmission work of Moyi Hall in Guyue Pavilion."

"Since the situation has come to this, should we just arrest him and interrogate him?"

Qin Ge shook his head. "It's no use. What we can think of, the enemy can think of too."

"The opportunity our opponent is giving us isn't a real opportunity; it could very well be a trap!"

He beckoned with his hand, "Come on, relax a bit, clear your head, and then think about it slowly."

Xie Bingning was taken aback. Weren't we talking about serious business? This is quite a roundabout way of doing things.

......

Night falls at the Fu family residence.

"Xiao Qin is being too kind. Why did you buy all this stuff?"

"Where would a student get the money? No way, Yulan, have him return these things tomorrow!"

"Stay at Uncle Fu's place as if you were at home, there's no need to be so polite."

Fu Cheng had a stern face, behaving like a true elder.

"Uncle Fu, this is Qin Ge's own idea, it has nothing to do with me."

"You should talk to him yourself; I can't persuade him!"

After finishing her sentence, Shen Yulan slipped upstairs.

That evening, Qin Ge returned to the Fu family home. Not long after she entered her room, there was a knock on the door.

"Hey Miss Shen, why do you always have so many problems to solve?"

"Why don't you just come and live here with us..."

Qin Ge opened the door and saw Fu Xixue, stunned for a moment. "What are you doing here?"

"Excuse me, did I disturb you?"

Fu Xixue's makeup was exquisite, and she was dressed in formal attire. The deep cleavage below her delicate collarbone was just right and very eye-catching.

"Miss Fu, are you getting ready to go out? What can I do for you?"

Qin Ge and Fu Xixue had barely exchanged a few words, and he really couldn't figure out what Fu Xixue could want from him.

"I have a party tonight and I'd like you to come with me. Is that convenient?"

Fu Xixue, on the other hand, was straightforward and poised.

"A gathering?" Qin Ge was taken aback again. "Isn't that inconvenient?"

"Why did you suddenly think of asking me to go with you? Wouldn't it have been more appropriate to ask Miss Shen?"

Fu Xixue smiled faintly, "She's not as suitable as you; she's a woman."

"It would be so weird to bring a woman to a gathering with my friends. People might even suspect I'm... you know!"

"I see you've got nothing better to do, so could you lend a hand? You just need to eat and drink; I'll handle the rest!"

"It can't be that simple, can it?" Qin Ge became suspicious. "You don't want me to pretend to be your boyfriend, do you?"

"I've seen this kind of trick many times. There will definitely be your admirers there, and they'll make sarcastic remarks at me."

"I'm not going to put up with this kind of mockery. I'm not going!"

"No way!" Fu Xixue refused to give up and solemnly promised, "My friends all brought their boyfriends, so there are no admirers of mine present."

"However, if necessary, you might need to pretend to be your boyfriend."

"Please help me out, among all the male friends I know, you're the only one as handsome as me who can handle a scene like that!"

"I like hearing that!" Qin Ge pondered for a moment, "Alright, just for that, you flattered me so well, I'll go with you!"

......

"Your family is really hardworking! You're so rich, yet you still work so hard. Do you all go to work that early every day?"

On the way, Qin Ge started a conversation out of boredom.

"Work? I don't have a job!" Fu Xixue understood Qin Ge's meaning after a moment's thought. "You think I went to work with my parents this morning, right?"

"My parents did go to work, but I didn't."

"I went to practice my physical fitness and vocal skills to prepare for my interview at Qingyin Company!"

Qin Ge didn't quite understand. "Doesn't your dad make a lot of money in construction? Why not work with them instead of going to a regular job?"

"That's different," Fu Xixue explained patiently. "My dad is doing well now and making money, but who can guarantee he'll always be doing this well?"

"If we don't get any work one day, we'll just be left staring blankly!"

"Besides, I don't know anything about engineering, and I have my own dreams."

"If I become a full-fledged contracted streamer on Qingyin, who knows, I might become famous someday and earn more than my dad!"

Qin Ge was even more confused. "Can't anyone just open an account to become a streamer? Why do we need an interview?"

"If you do well and gain more fans, won't the platform proactively approach you to sign a contract?"

"Did I misunderstand?"

"You're not wrong!" Fu Xixue smiled slightly, "but this Qingyin Company is rather special."

"They directly recruit and sign streamers. Once signed, they will invest resources in training and provide traffic support, so you don't have to start from scratch as an unknown streamer."

"And the benefits after signing the contract are quite good, but their requirements are high; I've already been rejected once!"

"You have no idea, to maintain my figure, I don't dare to eat even a single extra bite of food. It's really tough!"

"Right now, all I want is to indulge in a feast, no matter what: braised pork belly with perfect balance of fat and lean meat, whole roasted lamb, sizzling roasted goose, steak..."

"You have no idea how envious I am of Sister Yulan. She doesn't watch what she eats, but she never gains weight."

As Fu Xixue spoke, her mouth was practically watering, and she seemed a little annoyed.

Qin Ge glanced at her sideways; her curves were perfect, with no excess fat, just right!

So that's how you got such a great figure? It's the result of hard work!

Shen Yulan is a martial artist; she probably doesn't consume as much energy as she eats. How can you compare to her?

It really wasn't easy.

Something seems off. What was I about to ask?

"What company did you just mention, Qingyin?"

Qin Ge remembered that the Lianqing Group, which Xia Siyuan and his group founded, had a subsidiary company called Qingyin.

What a coincidence! I just don't know if it's the same company that Fu Xixue mentioned.
