“Young master Quin!” An old man walked over with a huge smile on his face. Quin Yu being the cold person he was, didn’t respond to his enthusiasm. Everyone noticed that if one wanted a collaboration, they had to sugarcoat Aoi Hong first, “Mrs. Quin is very lucky to find a man like President Quin.”

“We’re not mar–....” Aoi Hong said, before she was quickly interrupted.

“No,” Quin Yu stopped both of them, “It’s me who’s lucky to find a woman like her.”

Aoi Hong’s face turned a flustered, beet red. After the man left with even a broader smile, she lifted her gaze, “You gave him the collaboration just like that?”

“I liked it when he called you, Mrs. Quin,” Quin Yu showed her an enchanting smile as she stared at him in awe, “You’re drooling.”

“What?!” Aoi Hong refused to believe him, but just to be sure, she quickly wiped her mouth, “You liar!”

.....

Quin Yu smirked teasingly. At first, he felt slightly insulted that this vexing creature would dare reject his courtship. If he ever pursued a courtship. Her strangeness, for some reason, fascinated the hell out of him. She seemed undaunted by his notorious reputation. Unconcerned that he could devour a little innocent bunny like herself in one bite.

Quin Yu switched off the call he just received, patting Aoi Hong’s head, he spoke out gently, “Stay here. I have some unfinished business to attend to.” Looking in Bing Shi’s direction, his expression suddenly turned dark.

“Miss Lin, your husband works for Binfinity right?” A relatively young foreigner approached Silika Lin’s table, “Didn’t your husband mention to you whether someone by the name Lu Kai would arrive?”

Bing Shi rubbed her chin in contemplation, responding in the same language as him, “No, but I heard his wife would definitely be here.”

“Please, ask him to take me in as his disciple!” The young man made a ninety-degree bow, stunning everyone around. He, who came from an influential lineage, had to bow down? But because she was Silika Lin, he would let it be. No, it wasn’t because he couldn’t look her in the eyes. No, he didn’t admire her, really- okay,maybe he admired her just a little bit.

This couple could bluff the public, but not the people who investigated their matters further! Wasn’t she Lu Kai’s wife?! Why did Lu Kai suddenly call off the thing of staying away from his wife? How did the elders expect him to understand their genius minds and create a partnership with them?! When he saw how others bootlicked Mo Luwei’s and Quin Yu’s women, he thought about doing the same.

Quin Yu widened his eyes slightly when a train of people suddenly surrounded Silika from all sides. Families with long traditions and history would have not survived for many generations if they were not wise enough in educating their offsprings.

“Make me laugh and I’ll not only ask, but I’ll also make you his disciple right after,” supporting her chin, Bing Shi sipped on her drink. As the man sweated nervously, she was happily waiting for the bowing man’s performance with a slight smile, “You have two hours.”

Li Jie watched how she effortlessly got rid of the crowd around her in the blink of an eye, “You should have also asked for some votes.”

The lights suddenly dimmed dramatically and a person walked over to the stage to announce that the auction was starting.

“I’m not that desperate,” Bing Shi stood up, “If Aoi Hong’s item ever shows up, bid for it. I only want handmade things. I’ll repay you later.”

“Where are you going?” Li Jie stood up with her but then he remembered that she wanted an item from the auction, so he sat back down.

“Somewhere with fresher air,” Bing Shi walked out of the hall, towards an empty balcony. She suddenly grabbed the banister for support. It hit her deep from all sides, not only was it the guest’s words, body movements, their eyes and subtle facial expressions that affected her. It was also as if she could interpret their silence when they stopped talking; she could hear everything they didn’t say in words and feel what they did: intensely.

Her eyelashes began to weigh more than they should, as if gravity had suddenly turned up tenfold. Whenever she stopped taking the pills, her senses would pop up and would keep thriving deeper and... stranger.

It was unbearable to stay in a crowded place for long.

( Make it stop, please.)

Sensing someone’s presence, Kuro curled around Bing Shi’s body in protection as she didn’t bother to turn around, “Mr. Quin seems to like ‘following’ others around. I have to say... that’s not the greatest trait to have for a leader.”

“??,” Quin Yu frowned at the woman who faced him with her back. He was only able to see her surface-level facade. All he usually saw, when looking at her before, was a plastic woman that went under a sharp knife. But now, her air of authority left one’s nerves in a puzzling tangle. The words he planned to say got stuck in his throat, “What a peculiar, two-faced beast.”

Turning around, Bing Shi’s lips curved up into a self-mocking smile. Her shinobi skills still needed lots of honing. Like a snake, she felt her skin shedding and she was unable to control it. Something transformed from the inside, and like a chameleon, it perpetually changed colors to the image of her surroundings. He was the closest to her at this moment, so her aura matched his.

In short, he also described himself. She better hurry inside and snatch a few nice items.

“Wait,” Quin Yu wasn’t sure if he could protect Aoi Hong. She wasn’t safe from anyone, including himself and his clan. His family agreed to their relationship under a condition.

They would not target Aoi Hong, but in exchange, he had to choose between two, equally tough to make decisions. He would either have to force Lu Kai and Silika Lin to divorce each other or bankrupt Binfinity.

In all honesty, both of these decisions were too risky. If the majority of people were on Quin Yu’s side, he would have succeeded in making the latter decision. Binfinity was a relatively small company compared to his empire, but Lu Kai’s sole purpose before Silika appeared was to obtain as many contacts as possible.

If Lu Kai’s connection were deeper than Quin Yu’s, he would have to witness his clan’s fall. He took out a few pictures of Lu Kai getting intimate with Su Min, and threw them in Silika’s direction, “Are you sure your husband only loves you?”

“I had noticed that he has been harboring some feelings for another woman...hm?” catching the photos, Bing Shi’s expression dropped, “After I had fallen ill, we grew a bit distant...Is it because I’m no longer new and beautiful?”

She chuckled in melancholy. Before leaving, she threw the photos over her shoulder, her last words leaving a faint echo in his ears, “Only a fool would believe the rubbish I just said.”

“...” Quin Yu clenched his fists into a strong grip and ran after her. Did he really expect a plausible and mature answer from Lu Kai’s wife? Yes! She treated everyone nicely as long as they treated her nicely back.

· · ———- · ???· ———- · ·

When Aoi Hong saw all the valuable and expensive items, she began to regret the thing she offered at the last second. Silika Lin’s jewelry and designer items were devoured like hot potatoes, while her quickly crafted bracelet got bid on by Li Jie and Li Jie only. She became a huge laughing stock. If Quin Yu was here, it would have reached an astronomical sum for sure! Hmpf!

During the break time, Aoi Hong went to the refreshments area to get herself a drink and a Mont Blanc cake as well as a fruit cake for Li Jie as a thank you gift.
