She should be in Rao City right now!

But that figure really resembled Qiao Nian.

Fu Ge had inexplicable feelings. He simply thought that he had thought about her too much recently and somehow saw a semblance of her around.

“Is it?” Wen Ziyu didn’t seem to believe him. “You were in a daze for so long, I was wondering who you could’ve seen.”

“Who could I have seen? I barely know anyone in Lan Pavilion. Must’ve gotten the wrong person.”

Fu Ge raised a brow and forced himself to stop thinking about it. He then patted Wen Ziyu on the shoulder and said, “Let’s go, they must be waiting for us.”

Wen Ziyu did think of someone. But seeing that he did not appear to be lying, he did not probe further. The both of them headed towards the private room…

…

In A1869 private room.

A group of men and women were gathered.

Zhang Yang and Qin Si were around. Qin Si was seated on the couch after having showered and changed into a fresh outfit. He looked tired, annoyed, and extremely unapproachable. Nobody dared to get close to him now.

Zhang Yang was a social butterfly and was best at engaging with people.

He could mix around with anyone present. With him here, the atmosphere in the private room was comfortable for all.

Everyone was having fun.

After he raised his glass for a round of toasts, he went back to sit beside Qin Si and put his glass down. He asked cheekily, “Young Master Qin, you’re the host. Why aren’t you having fun with everyone?”

Qin Si was even more tired after he changed into fresh clothes following his shower. His eyelids were fighting to stay shut. As he heard Zhang Yang’s question, he turned to him in a rather pissed-off manner. “Do I look like I can bring myself to have fun?”

“Tsk.” Zhang Yang looked at his handsome but gloomy face and shook his head. “Honestly, no. You look like you’re here to ruin the party!”

He looked as if he had the words “I’m tired and want to sleep, do not disturb” on his face. Was this not the look of someone who was here to ruin the party?

Since he was so tired, Zhang Yang couldn’t understand why he had to force himself to host this event. Out of curiosity, he asked, “Young Master Qin, this youngster from Rao City, is she your relative?”

If it wasn’t a relative, why would someone of his character, who did not take orders from anyone, be willing to sacrifice his sleep to be here?

Qin Si’s head hurt just thinking about it. He frustratedly snatched his glass and poured some alcohol directly into his mouth.

After that gulp, he was slightly more awake. He turned and said, “Relative, my foot! If it was my relative, I’d be at home sleeping now. Why would I be waiting here? She isn’t my mom!”

“Then…”

Qin Si put the glass back on the table and leaned back. “Master Wang’s sister.

“Master Wang personally got me to host her. He said the young girl is new to this place, he didn’t want her to feel bored.”

He chuckled.

She was already 18, how bored could she be?

Couldn’t she find things to entertain herself with?

She could just study if she didn’t know how to have fun!

He was full of frustrations, but he didn’t know how to vent them. Seeing how everyone in the room was having fun, he waved his hand and yelled, “All of you, keep all the alcohol. Everyone’s going to drink beverages later. A little kid will be here, no alcohol will be allowed! Get someone to bring a carton of Coke. Everyone, drink up the bloody Coke later!”

A girl with highlights put her glass down seductively and said coquettishly, “Master Si, the little kid you mentioned isn’t here yet. Could she have lost her way?”
