Peerless Cupid System

"No, no, don't drag me into this. I don't want to be a third wheel!"

"Didn't I tell you about the agreement between Ziqian and me? I'm not afraid of you pursuing him or him pursuing you. You are both my good friends and equally important to me, so I will take you with me."

These words touched Su Mingxi.

She couldn't resist leaning over and kissing Dou Xiaorong's fair cheek.

Dou Xiaorong immediately giggled and kissed Su Mingxi.

The two wanted to say something more, but Cui Qiuzhen, who was teaching at the podium, helplessly tapped the blackboard. Those two were getting more and more out of control during class time.

The car felt like it was driving through a forest, with lush evergreen trees lining both sides of the road.

Shen Qiaoyan opened the car window and breathed in the fresh air.

Ahead, a detached villa appeared, resembling a European castle.

The villa is surrounded by large lawns and flower beds, giving it a secluded, idyllic feel.

Several middle-aged men, dressed casually, were chatting with an elderly man who was sunbathing.

Ling Ziqian saw Huo Nan, who was dressed in a suit and stood with everyone, looking quite young.

Xu Ya parked the car on the side of the road.

Although there were other cars parked ahead, Ling Ziqian couldn't help but worry, "Isn't it okay to park the car on the road?"

“You can’t do that on a regular highway.” He pushed up his glasses and smiled. “But this road was privately built and isn’t under the jurisdiction of any department, so you can park wherever you want.”

Ling Ziqian and Shen Qiaoyan were speechless upon hearing Xu Ya's words.

Although we don't know how long this road is, building a road is definitely no joke. It seems that the owner of that villa is incredibly wealthy!

"Are we here to find that old gentleman's personal seal?" Ling Ziqian pointed to the lawn in the distance, where an old man was surrounded by a group of people.

"Don't point at others, it's very impolite." Xu Ya gently patted Ling Ziqian's outstretched hand.

"Oh."

Ling Ziqian awkwardly withdrew his hand.

Shen Qiaoyan was scared and hid behind Ling Ziqian, feeling as if she had entered high society.

Upon seeing Ling Ziqian approaching, Huo Nan quickly ran over.

"Ziqian, I'm sorry to trouble you again." He wore a humble smile, and although he had recently experienced a kidnapping, his spirits were still relatively good. (The last sentence appears to be a fragment and doesn't translate directly.)

"I'll do my best, but I might not be able to help you." Ling Ziqian scratched his head awkwardly. Even with the ambiguous relationship, he wasn't confident about what was going to happen next.

"Anyway, your coming here is a help to me, thank you!"

"I came too, aren't you going to thank me?"

Shen Qiaoyan looked at Huo Nan with a stern face, clearly unhappy.

"Yes, thank you too, Qiaoyan. Thank you for bringing Ziqian here!" Huo Nan smiled at Shen Qiaoyan, then looked at Xu Ya, "I'll leave the rest to you, Sister Xu Ya."

Xu Ya nodded, "You should spend more time with them, and you can rest assured about what happens next."

After exchanging a few more words, Fireman turned and went back to the lawn to continue talking to the group.

Many people also looked over at Ling Ziqian.

Being watched by those important figures made Ling Ziqian's scalp tingle, and Shen Qiaoyan naturally hid behind Ling Ziqian.

Seeing their reactions, Xu Ya couldn't help but smile. "Come with me."

Xu Ya led Ling Ziqian and Shen Qiaoyan toward the castle-like villa.

On the way, Ling Ziqian looked around as if he had entered the Grand View Garden.

Shen Qiaoyan was very embarrassed and tugged at Ling Ziqian's sleeve, "Silly Master, don't look around, or people will look down on you."

Ling Ziqian was covered in sweat. "Speaking of which, we're here to investigate, right? We should at least take a look around!"

Shen Qiaoyan was speechless, while Xu Ya, who was walking in front, smiled with satisfaction when she heard Ling Ziqian say that.

The villa's gate was not closed, and the three of them went inside.

The incredibly luxurious interior of the villa left Ling Ziqian and Shen Qiaoyan somewhat dumbfounded.

The villa's exterior resembles a European castle, and its interior decoration makes one feel as if they have entered an ancient European palace.

Ling Ziqian had never been to Buckingham Palace or Versailles in Europe, but he had seen pictures of them.

The decoration of this villa is very similar to that of the palace in the photos.

Shen Qiaoyan grabbed Ling Ziqian's clothes and stepped on the thick carpet, worried that she would damage it.

Xu Ya led the two of them upstairs.

There was a young man in his early twenties upstairs walking downstairs.

Upon seeing Xu Ya and her two companions, he immediately reached out to stop them, asking, "Who are you people?"

“We are from the Skyfire Group,” Xu Ya quickly replied.

"Why are you going upstairs if there's nothing wrong?" The young man had a very imposing square face, but he didn't seem very approachable.

"We are here to investigate the matter of the old gentleman's missing personal seal."

The young man showed a look of disgust. "Grandpa just said it casually, that you could participate in the investigation, but this is my home. How can I let just anyone in?"

The young man looked at Ling Ziqian and Shen Qiaoyan with the same look he would give a country bumpkin.

"I've already hired the most famous firm in Tianhai City to handle this matter. You should go back to where you came from." The young man waved his hand, dismissing them.

Xu Ya turned to look at Ling Ziqian, feeling somewhat unwilling.

If it were just the few of us who retrieved the old gentleman's lost seal, we would definitely win his favor, which would be a good thing for our cooperation.

But now that it's being blocked, it feels like a mission that's been thwarted before it even began.

Seeing Xu Ya's unwilling expression, Ling Ziqian hesitated for a moment, then took a deep breath.

As a man, it is my duty to stand up in times like these!

Chapter 173 Let that bastard be depressed to death!

To Xu Ya's surprise, Ling Ziqian stepped forward and confronted the young man.

The young man was being watched by Ling Ziqian. He felt a deep sense of disgust.

He waved his hand and said, "What are you looking at? Can't you understand human language? Get out of here!"

Ling Ziqian didn't leave, but looked firmly at the young man. "If we go to the old man, he'll let us go upstairs to investigate, right?"

The young man's eyebrows shot up, and he glared at Ling Ziqian with a fierce look. "You're trying to intimidate me with your grandfather? Go ahead, so what if your grandfather tells you to go upstairs? If you dare to go up, I'll throw you down here!"

Ling Ziqian frowned, surprised by the young man's rude attitude.

Shen Qiaoyan became worried. She tugged at Xu Ya's hand.

For Ling Ziqian's safety, Xu Ya wanted to give up the investigation. "Ziqian, why don't we go..."

Ling Ziqian seemed not to have heard Xu Ya's words; he continued to stare intently at the square-faced youth.

"You must have some reason for not letting us go upstairs," Ling Ziqian said.

"What nonsense are you spouting? This is my home. Do I need a reason to not let you upstairs?" the young man said, his face dark. "If you don't leave, I'll kick you all down!"

Shen Qiaoyan immediately became extremely nervous. She wasn't worried about Ling Ziqian getting hurt in a fight, but this wasn't an ordinary place.

Offending this young master-like person in front of you will definitely not end well!

Although Shen Qiaoyan is usually carefree, she is very meticulous and can consider many things.

Ling Ziqian turned around and smiled at Shen Qiaoyan as she grabbed his arm. "Don't rush, I have a few more words to say."

"Get lost! I don't want to hear your nonsense. It's worse than a dog barking!" the young man yelled.

"Bastard!" Fearing trouble, Shen Qiaoyan could only curse in her heart!

Ling Ziqian nodded. "If you don't want to hear it, I think the old gentleman would like to."

"Are you ever going to stop? You're using your grandfather to intimidate me again!" The young man was on the verge of exploding. "If you want to die, I can grant your wish!"

“I smell something on you,” Ling Ziqian retorted sharply. “You must have used something, but it’s definitely not smoking!”

These words turned the young man's face instantly pale.

Xu Ya and Shen Qiaoyan were stunned for a moment. They looked at each other and both thought of one word: poison!

The young man raised his hand in a panic, sniffed his hand, and then sniffed his clothes.

He did inhale something potent, but afterward, he took a shower and sprayed on some cologne.

The scent on his own body had long been washed away and masked, so how could this guy with the messy hair in front of him still smell it? Did he have a dog's nose?

The panicked young man betrayed himself.

Ling Ziqian breathed a sigh of relief; he had guessed correctly!

He used a little bit of his flirting skill to test the waters, but unexpectedly, he actually detected a strange smell.

"Maybe I'm just smelling it wrong," Ling Ziqian said to himself.

"I just had a cigarette, you must have smelled it wrong!" the young man shouted.

Ling Ziqian nodded. "I guess I smelled it wrong. My nose is only sometimes sensitive. Anyway, can we go upstairs to investigate?"

The square-faced young man dared not stop him anymore; Ling Ziqian's earlier statement that he had misheard was a way of giving him a way out.

If he dares to obstruct him again, Ling Ziqian might go to his grandfather and say such things.

The young man withdrew his hand and stood aside, looking at Ling Ziqian with some fear, wondering who he was.

Ling Ziqian turned around and looked at Shen Qiaoyan and Xu Ya, smiling at them.

The three of them walked upstairs with smiles on their faces.

Reaching the second floor, Xu Ya breathed a sigh of relief. Just as she was about to thank Ling Ziqian, Shen Qiaoyan jumped in front of him, reached out, and pinched Ling Ziqian's nose.

"Master, how come I never noticed before that you have such a keen sense of smell!" Shen Qiaoyan exclaimed in surprise.

"You're the one with a dog's nose!" Ling Ziqian said with a dark face, slapping Shen Qiaoyan's hand away.
