The extremely penetrating voice instantly attracted the attention of everyone in the room, and they looked up at the window curtains on the third floor.
Then, the guests on the first floor who knew who was in the private room on the third floor quickly scanned the room with envious eyes, searching for the 'Ye Shu Li' who could get Zhang Xiuran's invitation.
Ye Qing, who heard Qi Heng's voice, looked at Shan Dan's somewhat cold expression, and guessed what Zhang Xiuran meant.
Qi Dangguo and others looked at Ye Qing in surprise again.
On the other hand, Shan Dan's smile faded a little.
Ye Qing apologized and bowed to Zhang Xiuran:
"Master Shan, it's hard to refuse an invitation from an old friend. I'll have a drink with you later."
Then he handed over to Qi Dangguo and others and quickly went upstairs.
The speechless Shan Dan watched Ye Qing's figure disappear on the stairs, and then said to Qi Dangguo and others:
"Everyone, let's drink first."
…
In the private room on the third floor.
Zhang Xiuran returned to his former handsomeness, dressed in azure blue embroidered Ruyi clothes, and the silver landscape fan in his hand tapped his crossed legs rhythmically.
Sitting lazily on the wooden couch.
He looked at Ye Qing who walked in and said with a playful smile:
"Shu Li Ye, you are really amazing. You shook hands with that smiling tiger so quickly."
Ye Qing smiled bitterly and sighed:
"Master Zhang, please don't make fun of me. We just happened to meet you at the door."
rustle!
Rubbing his clothes, Zhang Xiuran sat up from the wooden couch.
He walked to the round table and sat down. Yin Fan pointed at the seat next to him, then picked up the wine bottle and poured wine.
Sitting down, Ye Qing took the wine cup from Zhang Xiuran with both hands.
Knowing what he was asking, he asked, "I wonder what you mean when you ask me to come up?"
"That's just disgusting."
Zhang Xiuran smiled uninhibitedly, raised his head, his Adam's apple squirmed, and drank the wine in one gulp.
Ye Qing, who was drinking with him, put down his wine cup and said with a solemn expression:
"I killed someone."
"Um?"
Zhang Xiuran's eyes widened.
Qi Heng, who was standing in front of the window curtain and staring at the lobby on the first floor, also subconsciously glanced at Ye Qing, whose face was as calm as water.
Wow!
The clear wine draws a beautiful arc from the jug and fills the cup.
Ye Qing put down the wine bottle and continued:
"Yesterday I investigated a homicide case. When I went to search the suspect's home, I met a man in black who wanted to take my life..."
As Ye Qing explained everything in detail.
Zhang Xiuran looked at Ye Qing's eyes with increasing admiration.
Qi Heng's eyes were full of exploration.
After Ye Qing stopped speaking.
Bang bang bang!
Applause rang out, and Zhang Xiuran, who was full of admiration, applauded and shook his head.
After a few breaths, he excitedly said:
"This young master is really amazing. He never misses anyone."
Listening to his son's narcissism, Qi Heng silently withdrew his gaze and continued to look at the scene outside the window.
Ye Qing twitched the corner of his mouth and said:
"Mr. Zhang, there must be a lot of involvement behind this case. If I can participate in it, not only to solve the case, but also to find some clues, I can make a big contribution."
"However, I have little knowledge and I have just joined the government office. I don't know whether I have the ability to participate in it. Can Mr. Zhang give me some advice?"
If it was different from his guess, Zhang Xiuran was stunned for a moment.
Snapped!
The Shanshui Silver Fan opened and Zhang Xiuran flapped it quickly, causing the wind to blow the long hair on his temples.
He lamented:
"Ye Qing, you are getting more and more beyond my expectations."
"I thought you wanted me to solve the murder case for you."
"Unexpectedly, you are thinking about whether you have the ability to participate in this secret case."
"I am really more and more curious about how far you can go in the future."
Faced with Zhang Xiuran's heartfelt admiration.
Ye Qing said calmly: "Without the help of the young master, how dare I think of this."
Zhang Xiuran stopped talking nonsense and flapped the silver fan faster in his hand.
After thinking for a moment, he said:
"You entered the government office with a case. When you first entered the government office, you found traces of the secret case."
"Chen Yu knows how to make good use of people. You have shown your talents, and he will definitely put them to good use."
"As for your concern that you might be involved."
Speaking of this, Zhang Xiuran smiled evilly and said:
"You are a rootless duckweed, why should you be afraid?"
Ye Qing, who had a serious face, shook his head and stared into Zhang Xiuran's eyes.
"Master Zhang, I have a family here."
"I can take risks, but I can't involve my family in them."
Zhang Xiuran was a little disdainful, feeling that Ye Qing wanted both, so he mercilessly revealed:
"Ye Qing, what you are saying is like that widow who doesn't keep her virginity and still wants a chastity memorial."
"There are many children of rich and powerful families in Huaiyang City, and they want you to be their staff and their personal ghostwriter."
"If you are really worried about your family, after you have become the first shooter in Pinglefang, why not take the opportunity to increase your worth and choose a company."
"On the contrary, he rejected everyone and still acted as a gunman, causing misfortune and causing Dan Dan to be offended."
There was a pause.
Zhang Xiuran sarcastically said: "You were just lucky enough to meet me. If you were unlucky, you would have died without a burial place."
Ye Qing fell silent.
He looked at the disdain in Zhang Xiuran's eyes and felt calm in his heart.
The original good impression towards Zhang Xiuran has dissipated a lot.
However, he also knew that with Zhang Xiuran's status, it was very valuable to be able to invest in him casually.
But in his eyes, the deep-minded Zhang Xiuran only saw the surface, which made him a little disappointed.
Seeing Ye Qing's silence, Zhang Xiuran's eyes were filled with disappointment, just when he was about to speak.
The gentle voice sounded, making Zhang Xiuran a little stunned.
"I need money, a lot of money, to work as a staff for those people. How much monthly salary can I get?"
"People's hearts are greedy. How many of those who are willing to recruit me are as sincere and generous as Young Master?"
"If I reveal my true identity, they will find out about my family and get the handle. Can I still receive my monthly salary?"
"If I keep being a shooter, I can have a steady stream of money."
"Even if I provoke someone, I am confident that I will not involve my family, find an opportunity to escape from Huaiyang City, and continue to be a gunman in another place."
Zhang Xiuran, who was speechless after being refuted, picked up the wine cup and drank it down in anger.
He smiled perversely and said:
"Haha, what a great Ye Qing, but I am too narrow-minded."
"Don't mention the past, just remember the promise you and I made."
"Your family, I promised to protect them. Unless I die, no one can harm them."
"You just have to do your thing."
Hearing this, Ye Qing stood up, bowed to Zhang Xiuran with a serious face and said:
"Yes, sir, Ye Qing will keep it in mind."
Zhang Xiuran waved his hand impatiently.
Ye Qing immediately turned around and left.
After the door was closed, Zhang Xiuran tapped his forehead with a headache. After a few breaths, he asked:
"Tell me, is this a good thing or a bad thing for me?"
Qi Heng, expressionless, said softly:
"Master, I don't know whether you are good or bad, but I only know that everything you do is right."
"Hahaha, Qi Heng, you are good at flattery."
Zhang Xiuran laughed heartily, pointing his silver fan at the empty spot across Qi Heng's side.
After Zhang Xiuran stopped laughing.
Qi Heng asked:
"Sir, you said that Ye Qing is as smart as you. I think what you did today will be guessed by him soon."
"You also said that he acted cautiously, why would he go to all the trouble and just tell the truth?"
After hearing this, Zhang Xiuran stopped his smile, frowned slightly, and said leisurely:
"This young master shouldn't have friends."
Qi Heng, who looked back in shock, saw Zhang Xiuran's lonely expression, gritted his teeth, clenched his fists, lowered his head, and his eyes flashed.
