Could it be because of this again?

In all honesty, I did nothing wrong this time!

As for Sakuma next to her, you might not be so sure. You can just stare at her; with such big breasts, she's definitely up to no good!

Sakuma also felt the hateful gaze directed at him from the side, and his eyes immediately narrowed.

"What are you looking at me for?"

"No, it's just that my neck is sore, so I'm just moving it around."

"Why do I get the feeling that you're trying to shift your hatred onto me?"

"You think too much."

Ze Zhi chuckled and lowered her head, but her eyes were still frantically gesturing towards Ying Ziyan.

It's definitely Sakikuma. This guy dared to cheat on you right in front of you at the movie theater. He must have something big up his sleeve. He might take advantage of the situation tonight. You have to be careful!

Ying Ziyan fully understood Ze Zhi's meaning and nodded without leaving a trace.

But in her mind, Zezhi's danger level had risen several notches.

This guy deliberately shifted his attention to Sakikuma; she's definitely plotting something else. She's got a sinister mind!

Lin Qiu, completely unaware that the three had already secretly clashed, quietly enjoyed the delicious food with a satisfied expression.

Having exercised with Ying Ziyan before coming here, he is now quite Zen and comfortable, looking completely at ease with Qi Xi beside him.

Aren't you afraid something might happen tonight?

"Hmm? What's going to happen tonight?"

Lin Qiu seemed somewhat puzzled by Qi Xi's sudden question.

What could happen tonight?

“Master Yunmo has come over. She also plans to have a talk with Chen Xiao tonight. If a fight breaks out, we won’t be able to stay in this hotel.”

"What are you thinking? Master Ye isn't that combative. With her watching over things, the hotel will be much safer tonight."

Lin Qiu rolled his eyes and said that the power struggle between the two sides last night was already enough to torment him. He finally found a talisman that could keep these two in check, and he couldn't miss this opportunity no matter what!

However, Qi Xi shook her head and earnestly warned her—

"I think this matter might not be so simple. Take Tang Feilin for example. On the surface, he seems like a cool and aloof researcher, but in reality, he's a pleasure-seeker who enjoys peeping and stirring up trouble."

"Isn't it a bit too arrogant of you to say that to my face?"

Tang Feilin, who had been eavesdropping on their conversation from beginning to end, couldn't help but glance at her sideways, wondering if she was that kind of person!

I haven't really stirred things up!

Qi Xi snorted coldly at his denial, thinking, "Nobody believes you."

If Qi Xi's reminder hadn't initially caught Lin Qiu's attention, now that Tang Feilin had become an example, he was starting to get quite nervous.

If even Master Ip is a pleasure offender, then the problem is quite serious!

"Xiaoxi, how do you think I usually treat you?"

"Not again? This time I'm really not doing it, it's too dangerous."

Qi Xi shook her head, her little face full of determination. This time, she would absolutely not be tempted by any benefits again.

After all, Master Ye's pressure is even more terrifying than Yun Mo and Chen Xiao combined!

Seeing that the little guy was completely unmoved, Lin Qiu grimaced in pain. After hesitating for a moment, he immediately looked towards Ze Zhi.

As if sensing an unseen malice, Ze Zhi shivered and met Lin Qiu's somewhat kind gaze...

360. Self-conflict in consciousness

"Sawari, how have I always treated you?"

"The novels I've read tell me that when you ask someone this question, the person being asked will usually get themselves into trouble!"

"Do we teammates really need to be so wary of each other...?"

"You're usually the one who betrays your teammates the most."

Faced with Ze Zhi's wary expression, Lin Qiu grimaced as if his teeth were aching.

Why are these guys getting so wary? They were so harmonious and trusting when we were playing the game.

Seeing Lin Qiu's somewhat regretful expression, Ze Zhi's lips twitched involuntarily. Has this guy become more and more ruthless lately?

Damn it, why did it turn out like this?

"I advise you to behave yourself for now. Yunmo's master is here. If you cause any more trouble, you'll definitely suffer a terrible fate."

Out of kindness, Sawari still offered a reminder.

If this guy dares to defy the rules, then we'll be in big trouble. All of us combined probably wouldn't be enough to beat Master Ye alone!

Do I look like the kind of person who causes trouble?

"That's hard to say. You've been involved in all sorts of trouble lately. I feel like my life is in danger if I hang out with you guys for too long!"

Ze Zhi glanced at him irritably, and as if worried that his chaotic situation would affect her, she quickly moved a little further away.

Seeing this guy's disloyal behavior, Lin Qiu's face darkened, and his gaze toward Ze Zhi became merciless.

Now that things have come to this, we can only rely on our team's tradition once again...

Having already made plans for tonight, Lin Qiu silently continued to enjoy her meal, her gaze involuntarily glancing towards Ye Ziyu.

But in his trembling gaze, Ye Ziyu immediately looked over, her eyes carrying a strange meaning.

What does Master Ye mean by this? Has she discovered something amiss?

Lin Qiu was momentarily flustered and immediately pretended not to know anything, lowering her head.

But Ye Ziyu clearly wasn't going to let him off the hook. As she stared at him, a smile inexplicably crept onto her lips, startling him so much that his hand holding the food trembled.

Meanwhile, Chen Xiao noticed Ye Ziyu staring intently at Lin Qiu, and his gaze immediately sharpened.

Why is Master Ye staring at Lin Qiu like that? Could she be planning to team up with Yun Mo as master and apprentice?!

"Old Chen, can you spare my chicken leg? I don't know what grudge you have against chicken legs, but I still want to eat some."

Just then, Sakuma's somewhat resentful voice drifted over from the side, which pulled Chen Xiao back to his senses.

Looking at the chicken leg that he had almost pierced through with his chopsticks, Chen Xiao smiled a little embarrassedly and quickly put a new big chicken leg on her plate as compensation.

With the new chicken leg to appease her, Saki started gnawing on it contentedly. She glanced at Chen Xiao, who still looked uneasy, and asked somewhat vaguely—

"Old Chen, what are you thinking about? This food is so delicious, surely it's not to your liking?"

"No, I was just thinking about Master Yunmo's problem."

"What happened to Master Yunmo?"

"Saki, don't you think there's something off about Master Ye?"

"Something's wrong? What's wrong?"

Saki looked at Chen Xiao with some confusion. Had Old Chen been under too much pressure from Yun Mo lately? Everyone seemed to be trying to steal his food.

Even I'm starting to doubt myself; I really do need to rest and relax a bit...

"Look at the way she's staring at Lin Qiu, it's a bit strange."

"I think that's a look that's about to cause trouble."

"You also think she's trying to cheat on you?"

"No, it's just that I have a feeling Lin Qiu might be in trouble."

Saki muttered to herself, glancing at Lin Qiu with a hint of schadenfreude. "This guy's finally had his day."

But before she could laugh for long, Ye Ziyu's gaze suddenly turned towards her again, and her ambiguous smile made Sakikuma feel numb.

What does this guy mean? Has he discovered something wrong with himself?

No, I have absolutely nothing to do with Lin Qiu, so there's nothing to worry about!

Thinking of this, Sakikuma, realizing what was happening, immediately felt completely at ease. She could be considered the most upright and fearless person among the characters present!

But when Ye Ziyu's gaze moved downwards, it evoked some subconsciously ignored memories in Saki, and her pretty face immediately turned blood red.

It seems... it seems there's still a bit of a surprise?

Stay calm! As long as you don't say anything, absolutely no one will know except for Sister Ziyan. For their own safety, the other party definitely won't tell either.

Saki tried her best to hypnotize herself, and when she finally calmed down and looked at Ye Ziyu again, Ye Ziyu's gaze began to sweep back and forth between her and Ying Ziyan.

She really discovered something?!

Under Saki's horrified gaze, Ye Ziyu didn't actually think in that direction; she was just muttering to herself—

These two are so well-nourished, it's almost excessive. Won't Yunmo feel too much pressure being friends with them?

No wonder Yunmo had a sour tone when talking about some of his friends before; now it seems there was a reason.

Just as she was lost in thought, a cup of hot tea was suddenly handed to her, making her pause in surprise.

Sakuma's voice followed immediately—

"Master Ye... would you like a cup of tea?"

"Hmm? Um—thank you."

Ye Ziyu took the tea and sipped it. Although it wasn't as delicious as tea brewed from tea leaves she grew herself, it was passable.

Seeing the other person's softened expression, Saki breathed a slight sigh of relief and quickly continued to serve them food.

"Master Ye, Old Chen and I are used to being close friends. Could I come over tonight and join in the fun? I'm quite interested in late-night chats and such."

"Didn't you just refuse to go?"

Chen Xiao glanced at Saki, who had suddenly changed his mind, and his expression became somewhat strange. Could this guy be up to something?

However, what Sakikuma was actually thinking was to keep a close eye on Yoko, in case she revealed some of the little secrets she had discovered.

Originally, Old Chen and Yunmo, these two supreme beings, maintained a special balance. If something unexpected happened to me and disrupted that balance, causing them to unite against a common enemy...

I'm going to die a horrible death! And I'll be all alone and helpless!

"Of course, it'll be more lively with more people."

Ye Ziyu smiled faintly, her gaze thoughtfully drifting towards Tang Feilin and the others—

"Why don't you come along too?"

"Sure, I happen to have some interesting things to talk about."

"Director Tang! We have some work scheduled for tonight, I'm afraid we won't be able to go!"

Realizing the seriousness of the problem, Lin Qiu quickly spoke up to stop him, his face almost turning black...

361. Overheard translations are often more exciting.

Are you that afraid of Master Yunmo?

At the sink outside the restaurant's restroom, Tang Feilin asked Lin Qiu with great interest.

This guy seems to be afraid of parents or similar figures.

"It's not that I'm afraid, it's just that I feel her master is a bit strange, like he can read minds, and he can see through everything she's thinking."

Lin Qiu muttered to himself with lingering fear, even feeling that his affair with Ying Ziyan was about to be exposed.

Moreover, the other party is intentionally or unintentionally getting close to Ziyan, and there is definitely some ulterior motive involved!

"Should I ask around for you?"

"I think it's already very dangerous for you, Director Tang, to go and talk to her."

Lin Qiu stared at Tang Feilin warily, wondering if this guy would suddenly drop some bombshell.

This guy knows way too much!

Do I look like the kind of person who spreads gossip everywhere?
