"Before, you were like a blank sheet of paper, so white that you had no color at all. But now you have shapes and colors. Although the painting technique looks stiff, it is more attractive than before."

The bartender placed the Bloody Mary in front of Qian Mengyao. She sniffed it and frowned in disgust: "Sir, you should not use drawing paper to describe a woman. You will never know why a woman will change herself, nor will you know what she will do next."

Huo Ting raised his unruly mouth: "what can you do..."

Before he finished speaking, something soft was pressed against his lips. Qian Mengyao kissed his lips, but the kiss was unfamiliar, just sticking to him. Huo Ting could feel his lips trembling slightly.

Qian Mengyao ended the kiss, but the distance between them was very close and they would be touching if they moved a little.

"Master Huo," Qian Mengyao said with a hint of tears in her voice, "Stop asking questions and be quiet."

While sorting out her emotions and expressions, she took a half step back, took a deep breath, and her shoulders trembled for a moment. Then she regained her charming appearance and said in a coquettish voice, "Sir, if you want to drink tea, I have the best tea here. You can always come to me if you want."

She stroked Huo Ting's chin and brushed past him along his jawline.

Huo Ting stood there in a daze for a long time, then returned to the booth with the wine glass that Qian Mengyao had just fed him.

Xu Yan asked: "What happened between you and her just now?"

"nothing."

Xu Yan looked at him holding the cup with only one ice ball in it and said, "You still say it's nothing, but the cup is empty."

Huo Ting quickly changed the subject: "where is Lao Gu?"

"Let's go," Xu Yan asked directly, "Did you drink the 'tea'?"

"No."

"You didn't, why did someone drink it?" Xu Yan looked at Qian Mengyao over Huo Ting's shoulder.

Huo Ting turned his head and followed Xu Yan's line of sight. Qian Mengyao was sitting next to a man who looked like he knew how to have fun, and even fell into his arms. She fed the man wine just like she had just fed herself, but the man drank very dirty and sprayed the wine on Qian Mengyao's body, making her white shirt wet and transparent.

Qian Mengyao continued to accompany him as if she didn't care, but Huo Ting, who had a keen eye, saw her numbness.

The dirty man picked up Qian Mengyao, and Qian Mengyao hooked her arms around the man's neck and let the man hold her like that, then walked deeper into the bar.

Huo Ting stood up, put his hands in his pockets and walked over. Xu Yan stopped him: "No wait?"

"Wait until the other person runs away before calling the police?"

"But the surveillance camera just captured you and her together..."

"So what?" Huo Ting snorted and laughed, "She is the 'daughter' here. Who do you think the surveillance will benefit the most?"

Xu Yan felt a little sympathetic towards Qian Mengyao. They came here just to take over this bar.

They have been monitoring this bar for half a month, just to find the "tea drinkers" who buy "tea powder" here. The man just now comes here once a week and looks for Qian Mengyao every time.

When Huo Ting was watching the surveillance video from the dark, he saw many people holding Qian Mengyao to the depths of the bar. There must be something wrong with that place. No matter what they did, it would not be clean in that dark place.

So they came. Originally, Huo Ting could come alone, but Xu Yan insisted on coming because he wanted to see with his own eyes the reaction of this "tea taster" after drinking the "tea".

Gu Mingxing came just to stimulate Qian Mengyao. After all, he was the person Qian Mengyao had liked before. As long as he came, Qian Mengyao would definitely take the initiative to approach him. This was also what Huo Ting came up with.

Huo Ting's eyesight has improved, and he is very good at judging people. After following Hua Ting for so long, he knows some psychology.

If Gu Mingxing didn't come, no one knows when Qian Mengyao would take the initiative to approach.

In this plan, Huo Ting and Xu Yan cannot take the initiative to approach Qian Mengyao, otherwise they will be suspected. They can't get angry now, so they will naturally use all means to avoid fire.

Huo Ting walked out of the bar and called the police outside the door. The content of the call was very simple. There was a "color" transaction here.

Soon the police arrived and checked all the private rooms in the bar. Huo Ting also arranged people in advance, deliberately letting one person break into the police's field of vision from the most secret place, and then go deeper to investigate.

After being guided, the police really saw Qian Mengyao, whose clothes were disheveled, and the half-naked man. The man had "tea powder" in his hand, and he was no longer conscious. However, he rolled his eyes and laughed weakly, and he looked as if he was in a daze.

When Qian Mengyao saw the police coming, she ran to the bathroom in panic and wanted to close the door, but she was too slow. The police stopped her before she could close the door and detained her in the bathroom.

The police brought the man and Qian Mengyao out. Xu Yan saw the man’s condition and the experiments he had done on those animals. What he saw with his own eyes was real.

He wanted to take a closer look, but the police were trained and their movements were clean, neat and orderly.

Soon, the police found the "tea powder" and sealed off the bar. They also retrieved all the surveillance footage and interrogated the man, all the shop assistants, and Qian Mengyao.

Of course, there is also Huo Ting who called the police.

The police asked Huo Ting how he found out. Huo Ting said, "I know that woman. She is the owner of a bar. In this society, there is no man who would hug the owner to such a secluded place. I think there is a problem. This kind of social atmosphere must be suppressed, so I called the police."

"You are quite conscious, young man."

"Thank you, thank you. This is what a citizen should do."

The police then asked a few more questions and let Huo Ting leave.

Xu Yan was waiting for Huo Ting in the car. Huo Ting got in the car and saw him staring at the police station in a daze, so he asked, "What are you thinking about?"

"It's a bit pitiful," Xu Yan glanced at Huo Ting: "I didn't expect you to think it through. You asked Gu Mingxing to come here just to induce Qian Mengyao to come here on her own initiative, so that there would be no suspicion that you deliberately looked for her. The reason for letting Gu Mingxing leave was also very reasonable, because he had a girlfriend and made a chat record. I just came to drink with you as your friend. You are the citizen with a sense of justice. Reporting bad behavior is all in your calculations."

"Not yet," Huo Ting fastened his seat belt: "Qian Mengyao will definitely give me out, and I will be investigated at that time, so I spent half a month to clean it up. It depends on my luck whether I can find it."

"What if she hadn't said that about you?"

"That's because she's stupid. Why would a stupid girl get involved in these things?"

"Huo Ting," Xu Yan looked at him with admiration: "you are so good at it. You can prepare a plan for so long, and you are not afraid that the other party will run away."

"Why should they be afraid? They are tied together by interests. As long as the interests are there, they will always be in the same boat. All I do is make the waves bigger. As long as the waves are big enough, the boat will capsize."

All along, Xu Yan felt that among the three of them, Gu Mingxing was the most thoughtful, but now Huo Ting's behavior made him a little afraid, as if he didn't know him anymore.
