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

Chapter 23 A Plum Blossom from Heaven is worse than a Childhood Sweetheart

The atmosphere at Zhou Shi's birthday party was much more relaxed, and there weren't any random people around; everyone was a familiar face, so everyone was comfortable and at ease.

As soon as Xie Qingyu entered, Xu Yan and the others invited her to play mahjong.

Xie Qingyu was embraced by Xu Yan and Dong Ling quickly made way for her. Looking up, she saw Dong Ling pleading with her, "I can't play this game, please help me get revenge!"

"Why did you stop playing?" Xie Qingyu knew the other two people at the card table, and they were also familiar with Dong Ling, which is why she dared to tease them like this.

"Just wait, I'll let Qingyu avenge me." Dong Ling looked at her provocatively.

"You two are evenly matched, who can avenge you?" Fu Yan, sitting next to Xu Yan, mocked.

"Ignore him, just keep fighting." Shen Shen, who had just arrived, leaned against the sofa where Xie Qingyu was.

Fu Yan glanced at it and said, "What are you saying? If Qingyu loses later, it's your fault."

Shen Shen smiled and said, "It's still uncertain who will lose."

“You can’t give orders,” Fu Yanxian set the rules.

Dong Ling immediately retorted, "You're the one who gives orders to Sister Xu Yan, so why aren't we allowed to give orders to them?"

Fu Yan then said with a smile, "When did I give orders? I didn't say a word while you were fighting."

Dong Ling recalled that she did not seem to have said anything, but she had clearly given instructions!

"Alright, that couple relies on tacit understanding; they understand each other without even saying a word. We can't learn that." One of the people at the card table saw it clearly.

"Let's get started!" another urged, eager to win money.

Xie Qingyu glanced at the cards left by Dong Ling. No wonder she was in such a hurry to give up her position; these cards were really not good.

If you can't connect seven cards or eight cards in a row, your hand will have very few cards that can be put together, and they'll all be useless.

Dong Ling probably knew that the hand was really bad, and whispered, "This hand is unlucky."

She actually suspected that the location was bad, but she didn't dare to say it.

Xie Qingyu is actually quite good at playing mahjong.

But she's not using her own body now; the original owner had hardly ever played mahjong.

Otherwise, Fu Yan wouldn't have said that.

Fortunately, Shen Shen was there.

After playing two rounds, Xie Qingyu's chips had clearly increased.

"What a blunder! I didn't expect Qingyu to be so skilled at this game," one person said with a heavy heart. After these two rounds, he had lost more than anyone else, and he had even lost back the points he had just won against Dong Ling.

"If Qingyu doesn't know how to play, then someone else does." The other person could see clearly that Xie Qingyu would glance at Shen Shen before playing her card.

"Hey, who can beat them?" The man realized what was happening and suddenly looked at Fu Yan and Xu Yan, then at Shen Shen and Xie Qingyu. "They're not fighting alone. Look at these two behind them, which one of them can we beat?"

"You're only just finding out?" another person said, mocking him without any politeness.

"Then what's the point of playing? I'm not playing anymore." The man laughed and tried to leave, but they weren't going to let him go so easily.

After laughing and joking around for a while, they played two more rounds before letting others play.

It was just for fun, but seeing the money I won made me quite happy.

"You two have great chemistry," Fu Yan praised.

He sat beside him watching, and didn't see Shen Shen make any moves. Xie Qingyu could understand his meaning: what should be given up should be given up, and what should be kept should be kept.

"You and Sister Xu Yan have such good chemistry," Xie Qingyu said.

Fu Yan liked hearing this.

After successfully winning back his wife, he couldn't wait to show off his relationship with Xu Yan to the whole world.

He was especially happy to hear such words.

The mahjong game is over.

Xie Qingyu and the other two went to get desserts, while Fu Yan and Shen Shen didn't follow. They each took a glass of wine and watched from afar.

"This is too strange. My detectives have been following us these past few days, checking everyone we've been in contact with, but there's nothing suspicious. We've also checked the surveillance footage, but found nothing." Fu Yan was completely baffled.

There has been little progress regarding the matter of Shen Shen being photographed on his territory.

People who grew up in families like this never believe in coincidences.

"After they appeared, my people investigated them. They checked every place they could, and there were no suspicious points, just as they confessed." Shen Shen was referring to the drugging incident.

“Actually, isn’t the answer right there in the open?” Fu Yan’s gaze shifted to the distance.

Shen Shen's brows remained furrowed. "That's what makes people suspicious. How did they manage to do that?"

How can someone with no background or influence do something so seamlessly?

It raises suspicion, yet no evidence can be found.

Shen Shen thought back to each time he approached...

"Where's Whisper?" Zhou Shi's approach interrupted Shen Shen's thoughts.

"Aren't you going to receive guests?" Shen Shen asked, snapping out of his daze as he looked at Zhou Shi, who was approaching with a grin.

Zhou Shi was not bad-looking, and although he always acted like a carefree playboy, he was still perceived as such.

Since it's his birthday today, he dressed up nicely, making him look even more adorable.

"It's my birthday, I'm the main character, I can't keep bringing people over, besides, almost everyone's here, let's play for a while, then we can cut the cake later." As Zhou Shi spoke, he saw Xie Qingyu and the others walking over.

"Why are you following Qingyu instead of your brother?" Zhou Shi teased Dong Ling as soon as he saw her.

"Mind your own business." Dong Ling often bickered with Zhou Shi, and knew that he would have to speak when they met.

Everyone knows that her brother gave her a good beating recently because she ordered male models, and people avoid him like the plague.

"I wouldn't dare to interfere with you. Are you having fun?" Zhou Shi grinned and leaned closer.

It's not uncommon for girls in the industry to patronize male models, but those are usually the kind where no one at home cares. Who knows what got into this girl that she went and ended up being caught by him and her brother?

Looking at Zhou Shi reminded Dong Ling of the humiliation she suffered that day. She had just picked up a male model, and before she could even touch him, she was beaten up.

Xie Qingyu had already heard Dong Ling complain about this matter, and because of it, her card was even suspended.

Seeing Zhou Shi teasing Dong Ling, everyone smiled.

Seeing this, Dong Ling became furious and tried to leave, but Zhou Shi grabbed her arm and stopped her. "Alright, give me, the birthday boy, some face. If you starve to death in the next two weeks, come find me, and I'll definitely give you something to eat."

"I'd rather starve than come to you!" Dong Ling huffed and dodged away.

"It's been a long time since I've seen Qingyu, you've become even more beautiful." Master Zhou looked at Xie Qingyu beside him and said sincerely.

Unfortunately, he was usually unreliable, and even his sincere words sounded somewhat mocking when he spoke them.

"You mean Qingyu wasn't pretty before?" Xu Yan asked, looking like she was enjoying a good show.

"Not at all, it looks even better." Zhou Shiying could easily come up with such a response.

"So you mean Xu Yan isn't pretty?" Dong Ling jumped in and asked.

"Don't mess with me, they're all beautiful~" Even Master Zhou couldn't handle several women at once.
