Chapter 271 Let me see what good stuff you bought.

"It might be to celebrate the formation of the competition team."

Qin Ce didn't want to go at first, but seeing her downcast look, he changed his mind. She should go out and socialize more.

In any case, Qin Ce had never seen her go out and hang out with any friends in all this time.

She's a true homebody.

Qiao Xing didn't object, since she already knew Yang Han and Qin Yi anyway.

But once they arrived at the destination, Qiao Xing realized that things seemed to be more complicated than they appeared.

Qin Ce brought her to a villa area, and seeing these villas, Qiao Xing felt a sense of oppression for no reason.

This is a place she usually wouldn't dare to look at more than once.

After Qin Ce parked the car, Qiao Xing asked sullenly, "Yang Han, are you hosting a dinner party in a place like this?"

"Hmm, what's wrong?"

"Isn't he... a garbage collector? How come he lives in such a luxurious place..."

"This doesn't seem to be his home; it should be his teammate's villa. His teammate runs a club," Qin Ce said, adding.

Qiao Xing then remembered that Yang Han seemed to have mentioned some kind of club before and even invited her to join.

"Get out of the car." Qin Ce pushed open the car door and got out. Just now on the way, Yang Han had called him to buy groceries.

He took the things he bought out of the trunk, walked to Qiao Xing's side, took her hand, and led her inside.

"Holy crap, Qin Yi, you betrayed me!"

As soon as I entered, I heard Yang Han's voice.

Upon entering, I saw that there were quite a few people in the large living room. Several men were lying haphazardly on the sofa, a table was set up over there, and several young women were chatting and laughing around the French windows.

Seeing so many strangers, Qiao Xing was about to suffer from social anxiety.

"I'll die even if I don't sell you out. If we lose the dragon, they'll wipe us out in one fell swoop," Qin Yi said without looking up.

"Fine, fine, you're awesome, you call the shots."

Taking advantage of the time it took for the character to revive, Yang Han looked up at the door and his eyes lit up. "Old Qin, sister-in-law!"

He tossed his phone aside and ran towards the two of them in his slippers. "You two got here pretty fast! Let me see what good stuff you bought!"

Yang Han snatched the bag from Qin Ce's hand, opened it, and saw... a large piece of pork.

"No, did you buy these groceries?"

Qin Ce countered, "Isn't it a dish?"

"Didn't I tell you about barbecue and hot pot? You bought pork... You're amazing."

Qin Yi greeted them as well, "Brother, sister-in-law."

Qin Ce nodded slightly and pulled Qiao Xing over.

Yang Han said with a smile, "You two don't need to be so polite, they are all my friends. Hey you, Mu Lian, what are you standing there for? You're the host!"

The man named Mu Lian was still laning in the top lane when he heard this. He looked up blankly and asked, "Huh?"

Yang Han laughed in exasperation, "Fine, then, sister-in-law, please make yourself at home."

Qiao Xing smiled and said, "Okay."

She looked around and saw that the sofas were all occupied by them; there was nowhere left to sit.

Yang Han kicked the man named Mu Lian, "Still standing there, get out of the way!"

Mu Lian also realized what was happening and quickly put away her phone. "Please sit down, please sit down. I'll go get you some water."

Qin Ce pulled Qiao Xing over to sit down.

Yang Han introduced, "Sister-in-law, these are our teammates participating in the competition. Those over there are members of the Mu Lian Club, you don't need to worry about them. Those beautiful girls over there are their girlfriends."

His introduction was practically useless; all Qiao Xing could do was smile and nod.

Yang Han started complaining about Qin Ce again, "Old Qin, you're really stingy! You bought such a big piece of pork, how are we going to cook this?"

"That's your problem, I'm just responsible for buying it."

Yang Han twitched her lips. "Never mind, I'll freeze it."

After saying that, he took the piece of pork to the kitchen.

Qin Ce hadn't met these people much before, so he just sat there with Qiao Xing. Everyone else knew each other, but apart from Yang Han, he didn't really interact with them.

The girls over there were whispering and discussing, of course, Qin Ce.

After all, it's hard to ignore such a tall and handsome guy sitting there.

Seeing that the two were so bored, Qin Yi offered to play games with them.

Qiao Xing hadn't played with Qin Yi before, but she knew he was very skilled. She glanced at Qin Ce, who nodded and said, "You guys play."

So Qin Yi opened a room, invited Qiao Xing in, and Yang Han also shamelessly insisted on joining, so the three of them started playing a match.

Qin Ce sat there playing on his phone, looking at Lin Qiang's information.

The information was very comprehensive; they even sent over which kindergarten Lin Qiang used to attend.

His academic record was normal before junior high school, but after entering junior high school, he met some troublemakers in his class and started to go astray.

He's handsome and gets along well with those hooligans, so he's popular with both boys and girls.

This kid started dating in junior high school and had four or five girlfriends.

Later, he got to know some thugs outside, and they got into fights, skipped classes to go to bars, and stole things. They were capable of all sorts of evil deeds.

In his third year of junior high school, he got into a fight and crippled someone. His family had to pay a lot of money in compensation, so he dropped out of school and went out to work.

He worked sporadically, dated many women, spent their money, and even developed violent tendencies at that time.

He drove away several girlfriends, one of whom even suffered a miscarriage because of his beatings. He then abandoned her and moved to another city to continue his aimless life.

As he got older, his looks weren't as appealing anymore, and the girlfriends who earned two or three thousand yuan a month at the factory could no longer satisfy him.

After meeting Wang Qin, he learned that she was wealthy, so he began to use sweet words to deceive her, and that's how he won her over.

After spending all of Wang Qin's money, he revealed his true colors, and what happened afterward was pretty much what Wang Qin had told him.

After finishing two games, Qiao Xing noticed how focused he was on his phone and couldn't help but lean closer. "What are you looking at?"

Qin Ce turned off the screen without making a sound and said calmly, "Watch the news."

Qiao Xing twitched the corner of her mouth. This guy was really boring. She was just about to ask him if he wanted to play games together when her phone suddenly rang.

It was my aunt calling!

Qiao Xing frowned. Since Wang Ye's wedding, her aunt hadn't contacted her again. Why would she call her so late at night?

"You guys go ahead and play, I'm going to take this call."

She picked up her phone and went outside.

Qin Ce had also noticed her caller ID, and he stood up as well. "We're leaving now."

"What's wrong? Dinner's almost ready," Yang Han asked, puzzled.

Qin Ce glanced at Qiao Xing at the door and said with an ambiguous expression, "I'm afraid we won't be able to eat here. Maybe next time."

After saying that, he walked out towards Qiao Xing.

Yang Han and Qin Yi were left looking at each other in bewilderment. Yang Han asked, "What happened?"

Qin Yi shook his head. How could he possibly know?

Qiao Xing answered the phone in the yard. As soon as the call connected, she heard her aunt's low and urgent voice, "Xingxing, where are you?"

"I'm at a friend's place, what's wrong?"

"Oh no, something's happened! You need to come right away!"
