Why did the system take my request to take photos with a cosplayer seriously?

Wenjing asked quietly, "What is Credit Suisse?"

Credit Suisse, a globally renowned investment bank.

Hua Qing rarely spoke up to explain, but after she finished, she lowered her head to drink water, as if she was annoyed that she had spoken too much and shown off.

She didn't really understand either; she only remembered it when her teammates talked about a certain ex-boyfriend back in the capital.

Wenjing gave an "Oh," seemingly understanding but not quite.

Lisa took a sip of her coffee and glanced at the girls again.

“Mr. Ding, you and them…”

She didn't finish her sentence, but the curiosity in her eyes was impossible to hide.

One man and five women went on a trip abroad; their relationship seemed anything but ordinary.

There was a moment of silence on the table.

Zhao Yanxi picked up her coffee cup and pretended not to hear.

Wenjing lowered her head and fiddled with the napkin.

Hua Qing remained expressionless, her gaze fixed on the view outside the window.

Bai Ma wanted to speak, but Ding Heng stopped her with a look.

Lin Man spoke first: "Ding Heng is my boss, and the others are my friends. They all happen to be free, so we came out to have some fun together."

Lin Man didn't want to explain the complicated relationships among the group, and tried to simply brush it off.

"friend?"

Kris couldn't contain her curiosity. Surely all five women and one man were friends?

Her gaze finally settled on Baima.

From the moment she entered the coffee shop, she noticed that the little girl interacted the most with Ding Heng.

Just now, when Ding Heng was ordering coffee, Bai Ma leaned over to look at the menu. The two of them were whispering to each other, their heads close together.

Baima pointed at the menu, and Ding Heng patiently translated for her, occasionally making a joke that made Baima laugh.

Lisa asked curiously, "Mr. Ding and Baima are...?"

"No, no, no!"

Baima waved her hands repeatedly, saying, "I am his sister!"

Lisa blinked: "Sister?"

"Yes! My sister! Although we're not related by blood..."

Pema emphasized, "And I'm already an adult! Eighteen! Not a little girl!"

Lisa was amused by her eagerness to clarify and quickly waved her hand, saying, "Sorry, sorry."

Baima shrank back into her seat, picked up the water glass in front of her, and took a big gulp.

Ding Heng reached out and gently patted her head: "What's the rush? They didn't say anything."

"Who's getting impatient..."

Bai Ma muttered softly, a blush still lingering on her face.

Lin Man changed the subject at the right moment: "Lisa, what are your plans for today? Show us around!"

Lisa immediately perked up.

"I know Zurich well. Where would you like to go? Stroll along Bahnhofstrasse? Or wander around the Old Town? Or take a walk by the lake?"

Aside from work clients, Lisa doesn't have many friends on weekdays, so it's understandable that she gets excited when a large group of Chinese friends suddenly appear in front of her.

Ding Heng replied, "Let's look around, we have a whole day anyway."

"Row."

Lisa stood up: "Let's go then, Xiaoman's rented car is at the door."

Lin Man rented a silver-gray Mercedes-Benz MPV, which was spacious and clean.

Zhao Yanxi was the first to squeeze in and took a seat in the middle row by the window.

Wenjing sat down next to her, Huaqing sat in the last row, and Linman sat in the passenger seat.

Bai Ma wanted to sit in the back row with Ding Heng, but Zhao Yanxi pulled her over.

“Pema, sit here, let’s have a chat.”

"Oh……"

Baima reluctantly sat down next to Zhao Yanxi.

Ding Heng was the last to board the bus and sat down next to Hua Qing.

The car slowly drove out of the hotel and merged into the streets of Zurich.

The group stopped near Hof Street, got out of the car, and began to stroll around.

Baima followed at the back of the group, showing little interest in the luxury goods in the shop window, her gaze occasionally falling on Ding Heng.

He was taking pictures of Zhao Yanxi with his camera, half-squatting to find the right angle. Her profile showed strong features and a distinct jawline.

"Brother."

Baima seized the opportunity to sidle up to Ding Heng and tug at his sleeve.

Ding Heng put down his camera: "What's wrong?"

"Nothing, I just wanted to chat with you."

"What do you want to talk about?"

"casual."

The two walked side by side, putting some distance between themselves and the girls in front of them.

Baima suddenly asked, "Brother, what do you think of Sister Lisa?"

"It's alright, they're quite enthusiastic."

Do you think she's pretty?

"It's alright."

"Brother, is 'okay' all you can do?"

Baima stopped and looked up at him: "Don't you like her mixed-race looks?"

Ding Heng continued walking forward: "Why are you asking this?"

"Just curious."

"Don't be curious, they have nothing to do with us."

"I was just asking casually."

Baima caught up with Ding Heng again, her two short legs moving incredibly fast.

For some reason, now whenever a beautiful woman appears around Ding Heng, she becomes extremely wary, just like with the tutor last time.

Bai Ma had a strong intuition that if Shen Ruoqing was allowed to teach Wen Shu, she would eventually end up teaching Ding Heng in bed.

"Brother."

"What now?"

"Have you noticed that Sister Man is especially happy today?"

Ding Heng glanced at Lin Man, who was walking ahead.

She was holding Zhao Yanxi's arm, pointing at a piece of clothing in the shop window and talking to her, her smile bright, and she did seem more relaxed than usual.

"Maybe it's because I saw an old friend, so I was in a good mood."

"Yeah……"

Baima dragged out the melody.

She felt that Lin Man's condition was off today, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it.

The group strolled along Bahnhofstrasse for nearly two hours. Zhao Yanxi bought a pair of shoes and a silk scarf, Wen Jing bought a light jacket, and Hua Qing bought a sun hat.

Lin Man didn't buy anything, but she did pick out a pair of sunglasses for Lisa, saying it was a gift for them when they first met.

At noon, Lisa took them to a restaurant hidden in an alley in the old town.

"This shop has been open for over eighty years and has been run by three generations."

Lisa explained, "Swiss cooking is really terrible, but this place is pretty good. You should give it a try."

After everyone was seated, Lisa communicated with the waiter in German and ordered food for seven people.

Zhao Yanxi picked up her knife and fork and asked curiously, "Sister Lisa, how long have you been living here?"

"It's been on and off for over ten years."

Lisa picked up her glass and took a sip: "In the past, I would come back for four or five months every year. After graduating from university, my family arranged for me to work and live here for a long time. It's been three years now."

What's it like living in Switzerland?

"To be honest, it's pretty boring..."

Lisa put down her glass and said with a sigh, "Those who like quiet can come over, but I'm someone who likes excitement. Once I've earned enough money, I'll probably go back to live in China."

The dishes were served one after another, and everyone ate and chatted.

After the meal, the group continued to stroll around.

By four o'clock in the afternoon, the sunlight began to shift westward.

Lisa led everyone back to the car, preparing to return to the hotel to rest.

Lin Man spoke up at the right moment: "Lisa, are you free later? I'd like to talk to you alone."

Lisa suddenly slowed down and glanced at Ding Heng in the rearview mirror.

"Row."
