Quick Transmigration: The Green Tea Mistress's Guide to Seduction - A Master's Handbook

"This is utter nonsense!" Xie Anshan's voice rang out first. "Is this something you can just decide to stop thinking about?"

"Qingqing, Qingqing, what happened? Tell Mommy." Wang Meilin's face showed some panic.

When Xie Anshan said those words, although he was addressing Xie Qingqing, his gaze was fixed on Xie Qingyu.

Hearing Wang Meilin speak, Xie Anshan said to Xie Qingyu, "Your sister might be upset. You should go upstairs first. Staying here might upset her even more."

Xie Anshan avoided looking at Xie Qingyu while speaking, clearly knowing that he had done something wrong.

Xie Qingyu raised an eyebrow. Looking at Xie Qingqing's appearance upon returning and the two sentences she had just spoken, she knew without guessing what had happened.

Even without Xie Anshan's suggestion, she didn't want to watch the play here, but she didn't go upstairs and stay quietly as Xie Anshan had suggested.

Instead, she went upstairs, changed her clothes, and went out.

When she left, the family of three was sitting on the sofa in the living room. Wang Meilin was comforting Xie Qingqing, who was crying sadly, and Xie Anshan's expression was not good either.

Xie Qingyu glanced at it only once before leaving.

None of the three people on the sofa noticed her movements.

The person Xie Qingyu went out to meet this time was Zhou He.

This was the first time the two of them had met in a relatively normal restaurant.

Xie Qingyu hadn't eaten much all day, so she couldn't help but focus her attention on the food in front of her.

Even though she ate a little quickly, Xie Qingyu's movements still appeared proper.

On the other hand, Zhou He's gaze was fixed on Xie Qingyu, seemingly watching her eat, but his thoughts were nowhere to be found.

After a while, Xie Qingyu ate a few bites to fill her stomach before noticing Zhou He's gaze.

"Why are you looking at me like that? Just say what you have to say." Xie Qingyu picked up her glass, took a sip of juice, and said to Zhou He.

"Didn't your dad say anything to you?" Zhou He asked.

"About the engagement?" Xie Qingyu asked, looking at him.

Zhou He is usually very straightforward and rarely hides his thoughts, so his hesitant speech is definitely not normal.

"Hmm." Zhou He swallowed hard before responding, and after a long pause, asked, "What are you thinking?"

Xie Qingyu had already put down her chopsticks and was now looking at Zhou He while holding her cup.

Under Xie Qingyu's gaze, Zhou He hesitated before finally asking the question.

"What do you mean? You don't want to get engaged?" Xie Qingyu spoke very bluntly.

"I didn't!" Zhou He denied, his voice quite loud, and people nearby started looking in their direction.

"So you're asking me what I think? Do you want me to refuse?" Xie Qingyu asked in a different way.

Zhou He looked up at Xie Qingyu, who was holding a cup and leaning back in her chair, looking very relaxed, without any sign of his current tension.

Zhou He immediately remembered what Qin Dan had said.

If he doesn't like Xie Qingyu, he shouldn't waste her time.

“I didn’t mean for you to refuse.” Zhou He shook his head, then suddenly scratched his head in frustration, just like Xie Qingyu did when they first met.

"After we get engaged, we'll get married. Have you thought it through?" Zhou He asked.

"You're the one who hasn't thought it through yet. Why do you keep asking me?" Xie Qingyu leaned forward, pointing out Zhou He's biggest problem right now.

Zhou He's initial anger was immediately quelled by Xie Qingyu's words.

Xie Qingyu is right; he hadn't thought it through.

It wasn't that he hadn't thought about the engagement, or rather, he hadn't considered the engagement at all. He thought of Xie Qingyu, Xie Qingqing, and even his mother...

He wasn't thinking about the matter itself, but rather about his life being controlled.

Seemingly free yet helplessly living according to a predetermined life trajectory, not one they envisioned.

Zhou He remained silent.

Xie Qingyu looked at him without saying anything more until her phone rang.

It is Qin Dan.

The call connected, and Qin Dan's excited voice came from the other end, "Zhou He isn't answering his phone, is he with you? Do you guys want to come over? There's something fun here!"

Qin Dan's voice was excited and loud, and even Zhou He on the other side could hear it.

He took out his phone and checked it. There were indeed calls from Qin Dan, as well as a few other people, but he didn't answer them.

After turning his phone off silent, Zhou He nodded to Xie Qingyu.

Xie Qingyu checked Zhou He's condition and said to Qin Dan, "Send me the address."

Xie Qingyu didn't need to be excited, but Zhou He clearly did at this moment.

Qin Danfa's address is a club.

After Xie Qingyu and Zhou He arrived, someone immediately led them inside.

The private room at the very end of the corridor.

This is where Qin Dan is this time.

This private room is very large; if you didn't enter from the door, you would mistake it for the main hall.

It's unclear what Qin Dan meant by "fun," but when they came in, Qin Dan was playing a game in the middle of the room. And he was clearly drunk.

Seeing them arrive, Qin Dan was somewhat excited, "Come on, drink two cups for me."

Qin Dan pointed at Zhou He and said.

Zhou He was already somewhat lost in his own world and absent-minded.

Surprisingly, she didn't argue with Qin Dan and actually went to drink two glasses for him.

Qin Dan's gaze fell on Xie Qingyu, and he said, "Sister, come and play. If you lose, I'll drink for you."

What Qin Dan said was fun was a new way of playing games that someone came up with, which didn't require any skill; it was all about mental fortitude and courage.

It's just a way of playing dice.

Xie Qingyu had been to many places before, even in less upscale bars or KTVs, but this group of young men was someone she hadn't seen before, and they were having a great time.

Xie Qingyu also went up and played a couple of rounds, and under Qin Dan's expectant gaze, Xie Qingyu didn't lose a single time.

She speaks with absolute confidence, but others have to think twice before speaking to her.

It was hard to tell what was real and what was fake. She won every time she was called out, and even Qin Dan didn't know if she was just lucky or if she really knew how to play the game.

Zhou He also joined in, but his luck was clearly not good; he silently drank several glasses.

Qin Dan was somewhat drunk, but not to a serious degree.

Even seeing Xie Qingyu and Zhou He's state, he still had the mind to squeeze in and talk to Xie Qingyu.

"What's wrong with you two? Why aren't you talking? Is it because Zhou He doesn't want to get engaged?" Qin Dan asked, her eyes filled with joy.

As soon as he opened his mouth, the ears of the people around him perked up. When it comes to gossip, almost no one, regardless of age or gender, can resist it.

"Nothing much." Even if Xie Qingyu were here, she wouldn't say it in this setting, especially since these are all people Zhou He usually hangs out with.

"Don't worry, if he's unwilling, then he's blind. There are plenty of good men out there, like me," Qin Dan said.

"Get out of the way." Zhou He had somehow joined Xie Qingyu's side, and upon hearing Qin Dan's words, he immediately pushed her aside.
