Reborn as the Strongest Immortal Cultivator in Modern Times

Seeing that Zhou Ao and Ye Yu seemed to want to spend time alone, everyone understood and stopped, tacitly refraining from following them.

Instead, they stood not far away, whispering to each other, their faces occasionally showing expressions of curiosity and ambiguity.

Seeing this, Ye Yu first deftly took off the headphones and turned them off, then said to Zhou Ao with a slightly apologetic tone, "I'm really sorry, Boss Zhou. It seems I've accidentally created a bit of gossip for you."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Ao's lips curled up slightly, and he chuckled softly: "It's my honor to be able to gossip with you!"

He picked up on Ye Yu's earlier joke and asked, "Speaking of which, what's going on with you today? I heard you went to study at Peking University, and I was planning to visit you sometime, but who knew you would take such a long leave."

Ye Yu did not answer Zhou Ao's question immediately. Instead, she asked Zhou Ao, "Tell me first, what exactly is your relationship with that Oda Ichino? Are you friends or foes?"

Upon hearing Ye Yu mention the name Oda Ikeno, Zhou Ao replied without hesitation, "Oh, you mean the boss of Hishida Company? The Japanese guy?"

"Correct."

"He's been wanting to collaborate on a project with me. We've met a few times before, but I felt there were risks, so I haven't agreed yet. However, his company has a pretty good future."

Ye Yu was relieved to hear Zhou Ao's answer, so she told him, "I dressed up like this today because of Oda Ikeno. I fell into their trap and want to get some information out of him."

Zhou Ao nodded: "I guessed so. With your abilities, you wouldn't have ended up working as a waiter here."

He asked, "So, after you capture Oda Ikeno, what do you plan to do with him?"

Ye Yu sensed the hidden meaning in Zhou Ao's words and chuckled, "Mr. Zhou, what are your thoughts?"

"How about we make another deal?" Zhou Ao suggested.

"Tell me about it," Ye Yu said.

Zhou Ao took a sip of his drink and said, "I'm quite optimistic about Hishida Company, so I've been thinking about acquiring it. However, Oda Ichino has absolute power and is very exclusive; he only talks about cooperation, not acquisition. Tomorrow, I can arrange a private meeting with him. As long as you kill him, I can acquire his company. What do you say?"

Ye Yu thought to herself, "He really is a shrewd businessman. It's obvious that Zhou Ao is getting the better deal."

Ye Yu said, "Isn't your plan a bit too shrewd? You only need to arrange for someone to come out, and I'll handle everything else. If the person escapes, it won't be your fault."

"I knew I couldn't fool you. Well then, name your terms," ​​Zhou Ao said helplessly.

"I've started a company. If you have any good projects, you should prioritize collaborating with my company."

"I know about your company."

Ye Yu raised an eyebrow: "You seem to pay quite a bit of attention to me?"

Zhou Ao said, "You helped me obtain the medicinal herbs and saved my grandfather's life, which is why I was able to secure my position as the head of the family. Besides, you are so skilled, I might need your help in the future, so naturally I will pay more attention to you."

He continued, "Don't worry about your company. I already had my secretary contact your cousin."

Ye Yu thought to herself: Zhou Ao is indeed a businessman. He has vision and does things meticulously, leaving no room for criticism.

So she nodded and agreed: "Okay, tomorrow you can arrange for Oda Ikeno to come out alone with me. I won't let him get away."

Upon hearing Ye Yu's agreement, Zhou Ao smiled and raised his glass: "Then I wish us success."

Ye Yu also picked up her wine glass and clinked it lightly: "I'll wait for your news tomorrow."

The two reminisced for a while. Ye Yuchao glanced around the hall and noticed that Song Tai's face was now completely red, while Oda Ichino was still chatting and laughing with people as if nothing had happened.

Zhou Ao asked, "Is that person your friend?"

"Yes, we both need to find Odaikeno."

“Then you can tell him to stop drinking. It’s obvious he can’t outdrink Odaike.”

Ye Yu nodded: "I don't know where he got his confidence from. He told me that he would get Oda Ikeno drunk, and then I would make my move."

"Getting someone drunk is less effective than using seduction. Wasn't that the person you had a conflict with just now after him?"

Ye Yu glanced at him sideways: "Boss Zhou, that's quite insightful."

After saying that, she put down her wine glass and walked towards Songtai.

At this moment, Song Tai felt as if his head was about to explode, extremely dizzy, and the whole world was spinning.

He never expected that Oda Ikeno's alcohol tolerance would be so amazing; he was truly a hidden talent!

Ye Yu put her headphones back on and asked Song Tai, "Song Tai, are you awake?"

Song Tai finally heard Ye Yu's voice, looked up, and searched the hall for Ye Yu's figure.

Ye Yu continued, "Listen to me first. The plan has changed, so you don't need to drink anymore. I'll wait for you at the hotel entrance in a bit. Say hello to Oda Ichino and then come out."

Song Tai instinctively chose to believe Ye Yu, so, fueled by alcohol, he bid farewell to Oda Ichino and the others.

His female boss wanted to take him home, but Song Tai refused, saying that the boss couldn't be left alone.

He staggered to the hotel entrance and saw Ye Yu already changed her clothes, leaning against a pillar waiting for him.

Seeing that Song Tai was unsteady on his feet, Ye Yu stepped forward and supported his arm, saying, "Let's go back first, and I'll tell you the details when we get back."

Song Tai felt his face getting even hotter, but Ye Yu didn't notice. She simply helped him into the taxi and made sure he was seated.

When Song Tai returned to the room, he was completely dazed.

Ye Yu helped him to the bed in the bedroom and laid him down. As soon as he was settled, she heard Song Tai mutter to himself, "Yan Wu, actually my senior brother is wrong."

Ye Yu was slightly taken aback and asked, "What did your senior brother say?"

"Our senior brother instructed us that once we leave the sect, we must keep our distance from women with outstanding appearances and never believe anything they say."

Ye Yu raised an eyebrow, and continued to ask with great interest, "Oh? Then why do you think he's wrong?"

Song Tai opened his eyes, which had been closed, and stared at Ye Yu seriously, saying, "You are very beautiful, but you are not as scheming and venomous as your senior brother described. On the contrary, you are very kind. We were strangers before, but you saved me twice. You are also very brave, capable, and smart. You are not the same as the person your senior brother described."

After hearing these words, Ye Yu couldn't help but chuckle. She was once again certain that Song Tai was a complete "naive and innocent" person.

However, after hearing these words, she felt her cheeks flush slightly. After all, what Song Tai's senior brother said was true; she had indeed deceived the naive Song Tai.

Ye Yu sighed and looked at Song Tai, saying, "Thank you for your praise. You should rest well today, and we can talk about other things tomorrow."

After saying that, Ye Yu took the blanket and covered Song Tai with it, then turned and went back to her room.
