“I’m not sure if Q is a member of the club, but as the world’s number one hacker, his IQ must be high. I’ve searched for him for years and it’s been fruitless. So today, I must come here and try my luck. I hope I won’t be let down today.”
The middle-aged man nodded, “I hope your wishes are fulfilled.”
…
Inside another private room, a man wore a pure black suit and a beige jacket. He sat quietly in front of the window.
His emerald eyes were clear like glass as his gaze was fixated on the entrance door downstairs. The steam from his teacup rolled up and dissipated as it reached his eyes. He was as beautiful as a painting.
His friend, who sat across from him, asked, “The person you’re waiting for still hasn’t arrived?”
The man nodded.
His friend asked again, “You’re here just to meet up with her? You don’t want to poach some talents?”
The man was speechless.
The friend inquired yet again, “Someone who’s been on your mind?”
The man finally turned to look at him.
The friend snorted, “Why not just take her away?”
The man returned to silence and looked down.
…
Down in the party hall, Dai Yixin walked around several times but didn’t manage to successfully strike up a conversation with anyone. A little bummed, she said, “You sit here for a bit. I need to use the washroom.”
Su Yan said, “Even you don’t get along with anyone here. Why would I want to stay in this environment alone? I’ll go with you.”
“Who said I don’t get along with anyone here?!” Dai Yixin glared at her, “I’m just new to the club and not familiar with people. It’s very normal behavior to shun out the newcomers. Once I attend more meetings, things will get better.”
Su Yan nodded and agreed, “You’re right. I worded that wrong. Let’s go to the washroom. I need to go anyway.”
Dai Yixin hissed a little and walked on.
After the two left the washroom and were on their way back, Dai Yixin’s gaze froze and she was startled.
She saw Qiao Qing walk towards her with her hands in her pocket.
When they saw Qiao Qing, Su Yan rolled her eyes, “The road sure is narrow for enemies!”
Dai Yixin pulled her away, “Let’s go. Don’t talk to people who don’t matter.”
So what third young master Jun and Gong Yi were mystified by her?
This is the underground entertainment city. She was here for the World Class IQ Club party. Qiao Qing must be a student who came down here for arcade games.
As she thought about it, she felt a rush of confidence. Then, wIth her chest held high, she walked on.
Just as she was about to re-enter the main hall, she saw that Qiao Qing was about to enter as well.
Stopping her feet and blocking Qiao Qing’s way, she said, “You are going into the wrong place.”
Su Yan chimed in as well, “Exactly! This is the meeting place for the World Class IQ Club members. A regular student like you cannot come in!”
Qiao Qing narrowed her eyes, “Get out of my way!”
Dai Yixin’s face turned dark, “Didn’t you hear me? Are you sure you’re not in the wrong place?”
Su yan gave Dai Yixin a look, “Do you think she’s trying to sneak into the party?”
Dai Yixin thought that was the case and said sternly to Qiao Qing, “This is the place where a private event is being held. Outsiders cannot enter. Please leave. Or else we will need to call security.”
Qiao Qing was mentally exhausted by these two and her voice turned a few degrees colder, “I said, get out of my way!”
Dai Yixin, “You…”
The duo was about to yell back when Sang Wu’s surprised voice rang through the room, “My baby! You finally came! I thought you’d ditch us again!”
Mu Jinghang, whose eyes had been on Sang Wu, was shocked. He rubbed his eyes, “Third brother, I think I saw Qingqing!”
