After leaving the study, Chi Shuyan changed into her pajamas and went back to bed. She didn’t plan to heat up any more milk to curry favor, since he clearly didn’t welcome it.
She felt that this man’s attitude tonight was simply worse than when they first met. However, when she thought of how she had done something wrong, how could she have the confidence to make the other party pay attention to her?
Chi Shuyan rolled around in bed. She thought of how that man had looked at her today as if she had cheated on him. She wondered if he had really caught her forcing herself on Brother Feng after drinking, which was why he was so cold to her.
After thinking about it, she couldn’t help but muster up the courage to send a WeChat message to Brother Feng: Brother Feng, did I make a pass at you last night, and Qi Zhenbai caught me in the act?
Seeing that Brother Feng didn’t reply for a long time, she was afraid that he wasn’t in a good mood because of what happened with Mother Feng tonight, and didn’t have time to look at her message. Chi Shuyan could only sigh.
When she was looking at WeChat, she saw that someone called Jiang Xiaoduo had sent her several messages in the evening. “Master Chi, I’m going to a party with Wei Panyang and the others, and I’m wearing the jade pendant you gave me. That thing won’t target me, right?”
“Master Chi, when can you get rid of that dirty thing?”
“Master Chi, don’t worry. We’;; get useful information from that kid tonight!”
Chi Shuyan didn’t know when she had added this kid on WeChat, but she also knew that this Jiang Xiaoduo was that Jiang Duo. She had a good impression of him, so she replied, “All the best!”
At Emperor Club, Jiang Duo, Wei Panyang, and the others booked a private VIP room. A stack of wine bottles were placed on the table, and a few girls had also been hired. Not long after Jiang Duo entered, however, he chased them away.
Jiang Duo, Xiong Luoying, Chang Hao, and Xiao Ningjin were usually wastrels, but they weren’t licentious and fooled around with women. Jiang Duo and the others still had some principles and bottom lines, and didn’t mess around with women.
These young men usually said a lot of dirty things, but they all had serious girlfriends. As for Wei Panyang, Jin Ming, and Fang Yinglong, they changed women as frequently as they changed clothes, especially Jin Ming and Fang Yinglong. The two of them came from pretty good families, but they were far from as rich as the others. They weren’t that old, but had already played with a lot of women.
Fang Yinglong wasn’t in good condition today, but no one paid attention. Wei Panyang and the others just thought that his face wasn’t good because of what Shi Ran had said before.
Wei Panyang took the lead and toasted Jiang Duo and the others. Although he disdained their superstitious beliefs, he apologized on the surface and expressed that he would let bygones be bygones.
Usually, when everyone played together, Jiang Duo had no objections either way to Wei Panyang, other than for the last few times. Today, he had come for Shi Ran in particular.
He made up his mind to ask Shi Ran for some useful information which he could pass on to Master Chi – every day that the dirty thing wasn’t exorcized was a day he couldn’t relax.
It was also because nothing had happened in the past few days that the group’s expressions had improved a lot, and the shock of Wang Yu and Shen Zhihua’s deaths had also faded significantly.
Jiang Duo had agreed to come over tonight just to relax. Seeing that Shi Ran hadn’t arrived yet, he couldn’t help but be a little anxious. “Old Wei, where’s Shi Ran? Didn’t you say that everyone would be here today? Why isn’t he here?”
