Let's see what he's up to.
Although she felt that Qin Duanyu's attitude was not sincere at all, the strong curiosity in her Felin bloodline still prevailed. She followed Qin Duanyu through the alleys and finally arrived in front of an exquisitely decorated restaurant.
The long queues stretching from one street to the corner clearly demonstrate its popularity.
"Look, Ramsey Restaurant, this is a revolving restaurant that's even more popular than other restaurants. I wasted so much time waiting for a table," Qin Duanyu said proudly, waving the invitation ticket in her hand.
Melanie nodded subconsciously upon seeing this. She had heard Jessica and the others mention this Ramsey restaurant during the Philin Rich Women's Tea Party. However, it was so popular that reservations had to be made several days in advance. In addition, the owner was particularly temperamental and wouldn't budge no matter how much money was offered. So, they had to choose a slightly less desirable revolving restaurant as their gathering place.
Anyway, the revolving restaurant has a better view and is more suitable for afternoon tea, but given that even the wealthy women on the island have a hard time getting a seat, she can imagine how long Qin Duanyu waited.
"Doctor, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have doubted you." Melanie's pent-up grievances turned into gratitude, and she took the initiative to hug Qin Duanyu's arm.
"It's alright, it was my oversight not to explain it to you beforehand." Qin Duanyu waved her hand generously, then smiled and said, "You must be starving after being so busy for so long. I heard their jellyfish and shrimp dumplings and minced fish are quite delicious."
"Mmm!" Melantha nodded, reverting to her docile kitten form.
Qin Duanyu secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, Bo had prepared several contingency plans and had Herman book a table at the restaurant in advance. Money might not solve the problem, but Herman's influence was something no one in Siesta dared to refuse.
……
After a pleasant lunch, a well-known jazz band came to the restaurant. The music, which suited the Victorian aesthetic, quickly caught Melanie's attention. Seeing this, Qin Duanyu immediately ordered black tea and dessert, indicating that she could continue to enjoy the music there.
He then made an excuse to go to the restroom and quietly left the restaurant, heading to a large shopping mall he had passed on his way there.
It was 1:30 PM, the time to meet Exusiai, but as usual, he was nearly 20 minutes late.
Somewhat thankfully, he didn't see the girl with an unhappy expression this time; to be precise, he didn't even see a single angel hair.
This girl probably slept with him. Qin Duanyu pursed his lips, but he wasn't dissatisfied. On the contrary, he was somewhat relieved that he could finally catch his breath.
A moment later, it was the same red and white electric scooter from yesterday.
"Doctor, I'm sorry I'm late. I thought Texas would wake me up, but Sora and the others said she left this morning, so..." Exusiai stuck out her tongue and said with an embarrassed smile.
"It's okay, but next time even if you're going to be late, don't eat while you're on the go. It's bad for your health." Qin Duanyu patted Exusiai's head and wiped the apple pie crumbs off her mouth.
It's so bright!
Exusiai's halo changed from a regular light bulb to an incandescent bulb, which was almost unbearable even for him while he was wearing sunglasses.
"Doctor, your bracelet is so pretty, where did you buy it?" Exusiai patted her burning face, reached out and grabbed Qin Duanyu's arm, only to find that he was wearing a blue wreath made of baby's breath on his wrist.
"Oh...oh...this was given to me by a flower-picking girl." Qin Duanyu's heart suddenly raced, and she explained somewhat flusteredly.
"I see, let's go quickly, today is arcade day!" Exusiai replied, then excitedly dragged him towards the arcade on the basement floor of the mall, as happy as a child.
This kind of basic mistake was beyond Bo's contingency plan; he probably didn't think he was that stupid. Luckily, it was the easygoing A-Neng; if it had been any other girl, Qin Duanyu didn't dare imagine the consequences.
"Doctor, I only have enough money to exchange for ten coins..." Exusiai looked at the various game consoles, reached into her pocket and rummaged around, her smile gradually freezing.
"What did you say?" Qin Duanyu pushed a plastic basket full of game coins in front of her and asked in confusion.
"It's nothing, Doctor, I love you to death!" Exusiai excitedly hugged Qin Duanyu, trying to give some benefits with her slender figure. "You are so good to me. Not only are you working hard to help me collect guns, but you are also willing to come to the arcade with me. Texas and the others often say that I am childish."
Regarding the other two guns, Qin Duanyu checked Bo's diary last night. It turned out that some of Kronin's men were mercenaries who used firearms, and two of them were in good condition. Bo skipped the gold group auction and directly bought them at an extremely low internal price.
The angel probably didn't know that she estimated Bo's spending based on market prices and found that it was no less than 100,000 Lungmen Dollars. She was immediately moved to tears, which led to her bold kiss on his cheek yesterday.
"So you're pretty brave, huh? I'm a video game master, let's start with that Street King '97 and see who can beat me." Qin Duanyu said with a smile, smelling the sweet, green apple scent emanating from Exusiai.
"Don't cry if you lose," Exusiai said confidently, leaning on his shoulder.
At her poorest, she would play games with just one coin for an entire afternoon. She was considered an unwelcome figure by the arcades near Lungmen. If she hadn't been carrying a gun with her, the owners probably wouldn't have served her.
The word "KO" appeared on the screen. Qin Duanyu's Nine Gods fell to the ground, mercilessly mocked by Exusiai's Kinaigi.
"No, continue!"
"I'm not convinced, let's go again!"
"Damn it, I'm going to take half your health this time!"
In just over ten minutes, the two switched to no fewer than five fighting games, and without exception, Qin Duanyu was brutally beaten, while Exusiai even managed to take a few sips of her drink.
"Game master, keep it up! I've already won, I can't even remember how many rounds I've won." Exusiai smiled happily, but considering Qin Duanyu's feelings, she still gently pecked him on the cheek. "But with you with me, I'm having a lot of fun."
"Miss, I'm the runner-up in last year's Siesta fighting arcade tournament. Would you be so kind as to challenge me?" As he spoke, someone who considered himself a fighting game expert issued a challenge.
“Normally, I definitely wouldn’t refuse, but today…” Although Exusiai was somewhat eager to try, she took Qin Duanyu’s arm and declined his challenge.
"I concede... It's okay, you take care of these genius fighting game kids first, I'm going to go play fishing next door." Qin Duanyu grabbed a handful of game coins and said to Exusiai with a wry smile.
"I'll come find you later. Good luck, Doctor! You'll surpass me someday!" Exusiai nodded and gave him a hug to comfort him.
Ah, it's so hard to hold back. Pretending to be a noob is really difficult.
Hearing Exusiai repeatedly calling out "Next up" behind him, he couldn't help but sigh.
Section 162, Chapter 51: The Master of Blame-Shifting and a Day of Being Drowning (6)
Filled with disappointment and regret at not being able to hit the child, Qin Duanyu drove to the beach.
Fortunately, there was no immediate need to rush things in Lappland. He had seen the program list provided by Siesta, and the next few singers were all girls' favorites, which was enough to delay their return.
As for Blue Poison, if it were to soak in water for that long, it would probably be thoroughly pickled by now, right? According to the original plan, he should have had enough time to bring Blue Poison to the mall before going to see Exusiai.
Who knew that a series of mistakes would accumulate and waste more than 40 minutes, and after coaxing Melanie, there was no time to spare at all.
Now that things have come to this, we have no choice but to activate Emergency Plan No. 2.
Qin Duanyu took a deep breath and sent a text message to a certain number.
As expected, Blue Poison sat on the bench where they had met that morning, calmly and leisurely reading a fashion magazine. However, the force with which she almost tore the pages proved that she was not as...safe as she seemed.
"Sorry I'm late." Qin Duanyu raised her hand to greet him, her azure eyes immediately locking onto him, as if she were being watched by some deep-sea monster.
"Doctor, where...where did you go? I asked the security guards at the gate, and they said you rushed out in a hurry." Blue Poison's eyes were full of suspicion, and she put her hand into her bag.
Judging from their appearance, they're getting ready to draw their crossbows.
Although she wasn't afraid of toxins, given Qin Duanyu's weak constitution, even a needle stuck in her body could be fatal.
"Well... An Suo got caught by the security bureau for stealing something. I couldn't let Amiya know about this, so I went there to bail her out." Qin Duanyu explained calmly, her expression unchanged. "I'm sorry for ruining the date."
"The Doctor also said that I always consider others, but aren't you the same way?" Blue Poison's tone softened slightly upon hearing this, though her hand remained inside her bag, rummaging for something.
"If you don't believe me, you can call security and ask..." Qin Duanyu was saying when his phone vibrated. He looked at the number and quickly turned on speakerphone.
"Doctor, I've written my apology for stealing. Should I take it to your room?" An Suo's somewhat shy voice came from the other end, like a child who had made a mistake talking to their parent.
"No need. Although I know this is a habit you developed in the past, I still hope you can gradually correct it," Qin Duanyu said gently.
"Thank you, Doctor. Including the time I was released on bail in Lungmen, this is the second time you've taken me out of jail..." Anso's voice trembled with emotion as he said this.
“You’re doing very well now. Many people have told me that you return their things if you accidentally take them. This is a good sign, and you should continue to do so.”
"So, does that mean my house arrest is..."
"Go play with everyone, just don't make me go to the security bureau to pick you up again!"
Amidst the excited cheers of the crowd, Qin Duanyu hung up the phone.
"So, do you want me to call the security bureau? If they suspect that An Suo is colluding with me, I can't possibly bribe the people there, can I?"
Lan Du's doubts finally subsided. The two of them didn't seem to be putting on a show. Unless they had rehearsed beforehand and had excellent acting skills, plus some things that had happened before, she nodded silently.
You passed this time.
Then, Blue Poison took her hand out of her bag; thankfully, it wasn't a crossbow, but a beautiful seashell necklace.
"I made this when I was bored. I originally just wanted to make a bracelet, but I had too many pretty seashells, so I made it like this. I'm giving it to you." She gestured for Qin Duanyu to lower his head and smiled as she put the bracelet around his neck.
"It looks so good, I'm going to wear it all day." Qin Duanyu wiped the cold sweat from her forehead, secretly sighing that she had dodged another bullet.
It wasn't that Ansuo was a good actress; she really was arrested by the Security Bureau. However, that didn't happen today. Ansuo was released on bail yesterday morning after he dropped off Kal'tsit. At that time, he put Ansuo in solitary confinement and made her write a self-criticism.
The text message I sent earlier was just a question: "Have you finished writing your self-criticism?"
Even if he did call the security bureau to ask, the answer he would get would certainly be that it was true, and that An Suo had been taken away by Qin Duanyu.
Of course, the note about this plan is that it can only be used on Blue Poison and Exusiai. After all, if it were Platinum or Lappland, they would definitely be exposed by a few questions.
"Actually, I just went to the botanical garden, but unfortunately it was closed and there wasn't a single staff member there," Lan Du said with a smile, putting her arm around Qin Duanyu's.
"Remember to keep this matter of An Suo a secret from everyone." Qin Duanyu tried hard not to show her panic, and instead spoke in a tone that seemed to be considering An Suo's well-being.
Hiss—Apart from Ah Neng, none of these girls are easy to deal with!
Fortunately, the Siesta Botanical Garden was indeed closed due to damage. After seeing Qin Duanyu and the others leave, the staff also closed the gate and left, leaving Blue Poison empty-handed.
……
He led Blue Poison to the mall. The basement level, where the arcade was located, was definitely a restricted area. He wandered upstairs seemingly aimlessly, and finally stopped in front of a nail salon.
"Look at your fingers, there seem to be some scratches. Did you get them when you were making the seashell necklace?" Qin Duanyu raised their clasped hands and looked at their slender, fair fingers. There were indeed quite a few white scratches on their nails.
"It's alright, it'll wear off in a few days..." Blue Poison shook his head, but felt a little happy inside.
"How can that be? Such beautiful hands would ruin the aesthetics," Qin Duanyu said with unusual firmness, and insisted on pulling her inside.
To be honest, Blue Poison's hands don't look like those of someone who frequently uses bows and crossbows. They are soft and boneless, as tender as scallion roots, and there are no calluses on her joints. Even the nail technician praised her, saying that she takes good care of herself.
Without saying a word, Qin Duanyu took out Lungmen coins and asked the young lady for the full set, not only her fingernails but also her toenails.
Girls love beauty after all. After taking a quick look at the photos the girl showed, Blue Poison was completely captivated and carefully discussed with her the color of the nail polish and what design she wanted to draw later.
As for the other person, they quietly took the escalator down to the first floor.
Even if there's nothing wrong with Blue Poison's nails, he still has to use sweet talk to coax her into getting her nails done.
because……
He had just circled around through the back door, pretending to have come from outside, when a white figure suddenly threw himself into his arms.
"Doctor, you finally remembered me? I thought you'd been having too much fun with other girls and had forgotten about me," Platinum said with a half-smile.
The last one for today, Platinum.
According to Bo's original plan, if Tianhuo hadn't gone back to study the volcano data, she would have been among the dating partners. Qin Duanyu couldn't even imagine how busy it would have been with just one more person.
"How could that be? I just woke up and I already asked you out to play."
