Chapter 55: Private Parties
Shi Yue didn't know how to thank him: "Zhou Mian, please leave this matter to you." ”
It happened that Zhou Mian brought over the coffee she ordered, and he helped add sugar and condensed milk, stirred it before sending it to Shi Yue: "You don't have to say such polite words to me, it's just a gesture." ”
He stared at Shi Yue's face a few times, and always felt that her expression was not quite right, and she spoke in a nasal voice, and asked worriedly, "Are you uncomfortable?" ”
Shi Yue tasted the coffee, the temperature was just right, and the sweetness was just right, she explained: "It's just a little cold, it doesn't matter." ”
Zhou Mian smiled when he heard this: "If you have a cold, just eat a meal of Sichuan food, I recently found a restaurant, do you want to try it together at night?" ”
Speaking of eating, Shi Yue remembered the last time she ate with him, but was drunk and sent back by him.
In addition, she wanted to ask someone for help, Shi Yue planned to invite him at night, and as soon as she agreed, Qiu Xishen's news was sent.
"Accompany me to a party in the evening."
Shi Yue thought that it would be the same as before, it was some entertainment or something, as the young lady of the Qiu family, these were her obligations.
Zhou Mian was just about to call to book a box, when he saw her look strange: "What? What's the matter? ”
Shi Yue looked embarrassed, and said with a little apology: "We can't eat together tonight, I have something to ...... temporarily."
Zhou Mian smiled, "Since I have something to do, I'll make an appointment next time." ”
Pedestrians are in a hurry on the road, and the ginkgo leaves are scattered in the wind. In the square opposite the café, children are laughing with white doves.
Today's rare sunny day, the autumn afternoon sun shines through the glass, shining warmly on the body.
If Shi Yue paid a little attention, he could find the familiar Bentley parked across the road.
Behind the car window, Jossy's eyes were locked on the woman sitting by the floor-to-ceiling window of the café, she was wearing a slim turtleneck, a long tweed skirt, her black hair was soft behind her, and the corners of her mouth were smiling, but she was facing the man.
Secretary Jiang sat in front and handed him the tablet: "Mr. Qiu, the bidding results for the land in Zhou Village in the west of the city have come out. ”
Qiu Xishen retracted his gaze, glanced at the bidding company and the price in his eyes, and looked cold: "What is the reaction of the Shen family?" ”
The winning bidder was Shen Zexi's company, whose clothing business has grown bigger and bigger, and has recently planned to turn to the real estate market.
"The Shen family has been looking for partners recently and wants to bring in funds." Secretary Jiang replied truthfully.
Qiu Xishen sneered: "Zhou Village has such a big piece of fat, can he gnaw it?" You continue to stare over there. ”
Secretary Jiang glanced out of the car window and said with some concern: "Mr. Qiu, will you continue to investigate the car accident?" ”
The car accident that occurred on the sea bridge at that time was not accidental, but someone deliberately framed him, Qiu Xishen never gave up looking for the mastermind behind the scenes, and this investigation found Shen Zexi's body.
Now that the target has been identified, all that remains is to look for clues.
"Stop for a while, don't startle the snake, let him let down his vigilance and have a good time for a few days."
In the café, Shi Yue stood up with her bag and was about to say goodbye to Zhou Mian, but Qiu Xishen ordered the driver to leave.
It gets dark earlier and earlier, and it's only past six o'clock, and the streets are lit up with neon lights, and the whole city of Kyoto is dazed in a sea of lights.
When Shi Yue arrived at the Liujin Club, before she could ask what floor the box was on, a waiter took the initiative to receive her.
"Mrs. Qiu, please come with me."
The first time Shi Yue came here, he had already heard the name of the Liujin Club, and if he wanted to become a member of it, he must have more than 100 million assets, and the goal was to sell the gold of the rich in Kyoto City.
It is said that the waiters inside are all highly educated beauties.
The splendid decoration, if you are not mistaken, even the decorative paintings on the wall are a pair of foreign auction items last year, Shi Yue couldn't help but smack his tongue.
Shi Yue thought that the party was Qiu Xishen's entertainment at work, Bai Ke entered the private room and saw several young men in the room, gathered at the mahjong table to play cards, and a few women sitting aside to either look at cards or chat, she almost thought that she had gone to the wrong place.
This is clearly a private party.
Qiu Xishen sat at the card table, holding a cigarette between his fingers, his eyebrows and eyes were lazy and indifferent, until he finished playing a card at home, he had a showdown with both hands, and knocked on the table with a lighter: "Win the card." ”
The other three suddenly wailed: "Third master, can you let us go, you have won an afternoon." ”
Zheng Shen sat on the corner sofa, with his hand on a young girl, talking and laughing with others, and was the first to notice Shi Yue's arrival.
He immediately let go of the woman next to him and stood up to greet him: "Yo, my sister-in-law is here, come in and sit." ”
Qiu Xishen noticed her arrival at this time, and looked at her with dark eyes without any emotion.
Seeing that he didn't react at all, Shi Yue felt a little strange in her heart, and she followed Zheng Shen to sit down on the sofa.
There are scrutinizing eyes all around, Shi Yue is used to seeing such occasions, but when he thinks that these people are Qiu Xishen's friends, he feels weird.
Zheng Shen was courteous, and gave her snacks and poured water, "Sister-in-law, everyone has to play for a while before dinner, do you want to play cards with everyone?" ”
Shi Yue still refused: "Still no, I don't know how to play cards." ”
Zheng Shen was bored, the few people at the card table thought that his cards were poor and didn't take him to play, he was trying to make another table, and he was a little disappointed to learn that she wouldn't.
Who knew that in the next moment, Qiu Xishen suddenly got up: "You come here, I'll teach you to play." ”
Everyone immediately showed an expression of eating melons, the third master, who has few women around him, will have the patience to teach people to play cards?
Zheng Shen didn't think it was a big deal to see the excitement, so he coaxed and said to the other brothers at the card table: "Why don't you seize the opportunity to win back the money you just lost on your sister-in-law." ”
Shi Yue looked at the chips in their hands and knew that they were playing a lot, but she still refused: "Forget it, I really won't." ”
Josy puffed out her cigarette, took her hand and pulled her over and asked her to sit down in his place while he stood aside.
Shi Yue was driven to the shelves, she had never touched this, and she couldn't even recognize all the cards, so she was a little helpless.
A few friends next to him were determined to win back, and regardless of whether Shi Yue wanted to play or not, they opened a game directly.
Seeing that she didn't even know how to draw cards, Qiu Xi chuckled, reached out to help her touch the cards and came back, and sorted her out again.
Someone immediately protested: "Eh, third master, didn't you say that you would let your sister-in-law play?" How did you get started? ”
Qiu Xi squinted: "I'm here to teach, when did I let her play?" ”
Shi Yue was also a little embarrassed, turned his head and whispered to him: "Just tell me the rules, I can learn it." ”
