“If he figures out my identity and tells my father, I’ll be taken back.”

Ji Yunhua replied.

"All right."

Xiao Qingyin thought for a moment.

"He's a very easy person to talk to. Don't provoke him on purpose. I should be able to persuade him."

Ji Yunhua looked on with suspicion.

Are you sure?

That day at the dock, the big knife in his hand was quite menacing.

"Yes, I'm sure."

Xiao Qingyin nodded.

The two spent some time discussing the glass workshop's operating model and drafted a business plan and cooperation agreement.

Xiao Qingyin then went next door and asked Yi Wu to help her make an appointment with her master.

Yi Wu quickly responded.

"The Crown Prince invites you to dinner in the private room of Dingshengxuan, Tianzihao."

Xiao Qingyin thought Yi Shuihan was very shrewd, knowing that business should be discussed in a restaurant.

Enjoying delicious food while eating is such a wonderful thing.

In the evening, she took Ji Yunhua to the appointment.

Upon arriving at Dingshengxuan, Xiao Qingyin did not see Yi Shuihan and guessed that he would arrive later.

They ordered some snacks and chatted while eating with Ji Yunhua.

As we were chatting, I felt a slight stinging pain in my left eye.

He said to Ji Yunhua, "Take a look and see if any eyelashes have fallen in."

Ji Yunhua walked over and bent down to examine it.

"Yes, one fell off."

Xiao Qingyin blinked, trying to make her eyelashes stick out.

But my eyes are a bit dry, and the more I blink, the more it hurts.

"How about I blow on it for you?"

"Uh-huh."

Ji Yunhua then grabbed her upper and lower eyelids and blew air into her eyes forcefully.

Just as I finished blow-drying my eyelashes, the door to the private room opened, and two shocked voices rang out simultaneously.

What are you doing?!

Ji Yunhua released his hand and looked towards the door.

A man dressed in a red satin robe was standing there with Yi Shuihan, looking at her and Xiao Qingyin with angry expressions.

She gave a surprised smile.

"Brother Ouyang, you're here too? What a coincidence!"

Ouyang Xiuqi was dazzled by her smile.

My heart feels like it's beating a little fast.

Embarrassed, she said, "Yes, it was a bit of a coincidence."

The moment Yi Shuihan entered the room, she saw that pretty boy and Xiao Qingyin face to face, seemingly getting intimate, and she was so angry she felt like her lungs would explode.

I almost drew my knife and slashed at him.

He only shouted because he couldn't find the knife.

Unexpectedly, Ouyang Xiuqi also roared, sounding even angrier than him.

He was wondering what was going on when he saw the pretty boy greet Ouyang Xiuqi, who looked like a submissive wife.

Suddenly everything became clear.

This pretty boy is none other than Ouyang Xiuqi's homosexual lover!

I was even angrier.

So this pretty boy is bisexual.

Xiao Qingyin isn't picky at all. Is the social atmosphere in their country really that open?

This is utterly absurd and intolerable.

This was the first time Xiao Qingyin had seen Ouyang Xiuqi, and she asked Ji Yunhua, "Who is this?"

Before Ji Yunhua could answer, Yi Shuihan said angrily, "He doesn't like your type."

Don't even think about pulling people into your harem.

Xiao Qingyin: "???"

Has this person started their period?

He has such a bad temper.

"I am Ouyang Xiuqi, the Earl of Jian'an."

Ouyang Xiuqi introduced himself.

He was a little nervous as he said this, afraid that Ji Yunhua would keep her distance from him if she knew his identity.

After all, he had only said that he was a spoiled brat on the ship.

He didn't mention that he was an earl.

"Greetings, Lord."

Xiao Qingyin greeted her with a smile.

"Why don't we order first?"

Yi Shuihan was in no mood to eat.

Xiao Qingyin invited him to discuss business, but he assumed it would just be the two of them.

Unexpectedly, I ran into Ouyang Xiuqi at the entrance of Dingshengxuan, and this guy insisted on following me.

Xiao Qingyin's actions were even more outrageous; she actually brought that pretty boy along.

A bed for two people—no, a business space for two people—how can it accommodate four?

"Weren't we supposed to be discussing business? Let him go first."

Yi Shuihan suppressed his anger and said.

“I want her to join our business as well,” Xiao Qingyin said, pointing at Ji Yunhua. “After all, I don’t have time to keep an eye on things, and it wouldn’t be good to leave everything to you.”

"What kind of business?"

Ouyang Xiuqi looked on with interest.

"Can I join you? I'm really bored lately and looking for something to do."

Yi Shuihan: "..."

"This..." Xiao Qingyin looked at Yi Shuihan, "Shall we discuss this?"

Yi Shuihan looked at Ji Yunhua and Ouyang Xiuqi, his mind racing.

Xiao Qingyin has been doing business with the pretty boy for quite some time now, and she would definitely be unhappy if he refused to let him join.

Why not just bring Ouyang Xiuqi in and let him deal with that pretty boy?

The pretty boy probably won't bother Xiao Qingyin all the time anymore.

And he really did need someone to help manage the workshop.

"Okay, let's all join then."

The four of them then sat down at a table.

Xiao Qingyin formally introduced Ji Yunhua to Yi Shuihan: "Yunhua is the son of a wealthy landowner in the southwest. He is skilled in management and sales and has a keen business sense."

Yi Shuihan frowned.

He found it hard to believe that this pretty boy was the rich man's foolish son.

Even the son of a local tyrant didn't have his guts.

She dared to steal his woman right to his face.

However, he didn't take it to heart, since this person couldn't beat him anyway.

He said casually, "Nice to meet you."

Ouyang Xiuqi was quite surprised.

"I never expected that Brother Hua would be such a business genius."

He had assumed the other person was like him, an idle playboy.

A sense of urgency arose in my heart.
