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

"I was wrong." Shen Shen admitted his mistake with a sincere attitude. "I shouldn't have made this decision without discussing it with you beforehand, and I shouldn't have considered how you would feel if you knew about this."

This was absolutely Shen Shen's true feeling; he was used to being in a position of power.

Even though he had planned to be honest with Xie Qingyu afterward, he hadn't considered how Xie Qingyu would feel if she found out.

“That’s not the most important thing.” Xie Qingyu’s smile faded as she looked directly at Shen Shen. “My current identity is your girlfriend, and I will be the person you spend your life with. Your biggest mistake in this matter is not wanting me to be involved.”

Xie Qingyu was completely unaware of the bright eyes that appeared in Shen Shen's eyes when she said those words.

She continued, "If you feel that you don't need to discuss things with the person you're going to spend your life with, then you don't really need to be with me. The most important thing for two people to be together is honesty, which will avoid a lot of misunderstandings and overthinking."

"Let's discuss! I really didn't think things through properly, especially regarding other women." Shen Shen couldn't stand Xie Qingyu's irrelevant words and quickly explained, "This matter was directed at me. At first, I was afraid you would overthink it, so I didn't say anything. But I never intended to hide it from you. I originally planned to tell you and apologize as soon as it was over."

"I don't want what you think is for my own good." Xie Qingyu looked at Shen Shen. "You need to believe that I am an independent adult, capable of accepting what anyone else can accept, and having my own independent judgment and thinking ability..."

"I know." Shen Shen no longer hid the amazement in his eyes. "You were really amazing today."

No one knows how much he wanted to hug Xie Qingyu when he listened to that recording.

The feeling is like having a beautiful bead that you already love, and then discovering that it's actually a luminous bead that shines brightly.

It gave him the urge to hide the treasure in his pocket and not let anyone see it.

He used to think he understood Xie Qingyu very well; she was a flower pampered in a greenhouse, and all she needed to do was be carefree.

He never expected Xie Qingyu to give him such a big surprise, which also made him realize how arbitrary he had been.

“This was my fault. I deeply regret it and promise that it will never happen again.” Shen Shen took Xie Qingyu’s hand. “As compensation for my mistake, I will make amends tonight.”

Seeing that Xie Qingyu did not resist holding his hand, Shen Shen took advantage of the situation and pulled her into his arms.

Xie Qingyu patted Shen Shen on the shoulder, "Whose compensation is this?"

Shen Shen grabbed Xie Qingyu's hand and kissed it. "Just kidding. There's an auction in a couple of days, and there's a collectible you'll definitely like. Let's go bid for it together, and that'll be my compensation."

Shen Shen knew Xie Qingyu's preferences.

However, they cannot escape the punishment for what happened today.

"You really won't come to my place?" Shen Shen bit Xie Qingyu's earlobe, trying to change her mind.

"Don't go."

"Is this my punishment?" Shen Shen suddenly realized. "Then I might as well stay."

Xie Qingyu gave him a half-smile, half-smile, "Are you sure?"

"Let's forget it." Shen Shen immediately backed down. He looked at the Xie family's gate outside, still unwilling to give up. These past few days, he had been focused on promoting Liu Qingqing, and in order to prevent her from noticing anything amiss, Shen Shen hadn't seen Xie Qingyu much.

I wish I could hold him in my arms and take him away with me; I don't want to be separated from him.

However, staying overnight at the Xie family's house was clearly not an option. If Xie's parents found out that he was sleeping there for the night, his path to marriage would likely face more obstacles.

Although he's just joking around, nothing has actually happened between him and Xie Qingyu yet.

"Then why won't you let me down?" Xie Qingyu slapped Shen Shen's arm around her waist.

"I'll take it in." Shen Shen was truly reluctant to let go.

Especially today.

The contrast between Xie Qingyu and him was so great that he couldn't help but want to stay by her side and explore how many other aspects of her he didn't know existed.

Shen Shen and Xie Qingyu got out of the car together and had a late-night snack at Xie's house before leaving.

However, he dared not act recklessly at the Xie family's house. Not long after finishing his meal, he left, even though he was reluctant to leave.

After Shen Shen left, Xie Qingyu quickly tidied herself up and went to bed.

"Mission progress?"

The system immediately announced: "[The current task progress is 90%."]

"90%?" Xie Qingyu asked.

"Yes," the system replied matter-of-factly, as if it was somewhat dissatisfied with Xie Qingyu's question. Its display was never wrong.

Xie Qingyu hadn't noticed this; the previous tasks had progressed so quickly that she was somewhat surprised by the current progress.

Moreover, normally, after today's events, the main storyline between Shen Shen and Liu Qingqing should have been completely ruined, and the two should no longer have a romantic relationship. So how come the mission is only 90% complete?

It has to be done.....

[Please keep up the good work, host.] The system offered a rare word of encouragement.

Xie Qingyu: ......

After the system finished speaking, it pretended to be dead and didn't say another word.

-------------------------------------

Fu Yan acted swiftly, and this time he didn't hide it from Xie Qingyu.

“These are all the questions we asked. No matter who it was or what questioning techniques they used, we didn’t get anything out of them.” Fu Yan handed them a record.

"Moreover, her emotions were very stable during the instrument measurements. Except for when she heard the recording of Qingyu, her emotions fluctuated greatly, but otherwise she was fine." Fu Yan was referring to the results of the interrogation of Liu Qingqing.

"She only said that the medicine was left over from a customer when she was working before, and she doesn't know who it was or can't find that person." Fu Yan looked helpless; he had a premonition from the start that he wouldn't get any information out of her.

The truth is that Liu Qingqing's background is too clean; just as she said, there's nothing that can be investigated.

Even if you don't believe what she says, there's nowhere to start investigating.

Clearly, no one present was surprised by the result.

Some things seem simple, but in reality, they have no solution.

"As long as they can convict me, that's fine." Master Zhou crossed his legs. "They won't be able to cause any trouble."

Zhou Shizhen never expected that someone like Liu Qingqing could do so much; this was no ordinary attempt to climb the social ladder.

Unfortunately, he genuinely thought the girl was quite innocent and that being with Shen Shen would be a good thing.

"Can I see her?" Xie Qingyu asked.

Shen Shen looked surprised, but did not stop him.

Seeing this, Fu Yan nodded, "I'll arrange a time for you."
