Half an hour later, the three people and one ghost arrived at their destination, which was a high-end private club in Beijing.
After Qin Can parked the car on the side of the road in front of the club, Li Shu unbuckled her seat belt, opened the passenger door, and got out of the car first.
She glanced around and was about to take out her phone to ask where Shen Yu was when a cheerful and familiar voice suddenly came from behind her, "Li Shu, here!"
Upon hearing this, Li Shu turned her head to look in the direction of the sound, and saw Huo Yandong walking down the steps in front of the clubhouse.
When he got closer, Huo Yandong noticed that there were two people standing next to Li Shu. When his eyes swept across Qin Can's face, he paused and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.
Qin Can naturally knew about this, but what surprised him was how Li Shu knew him. The two of them seemed to have nothing in common, which was really strange.
As for the other one, he looked very unfamiliar, and he didn't seem to have any impression of such a person in the circle.
"Li Shu, are they both your friends?" Huo Yandong asked.
Li Shu nodded lightly and didn't explain much. After all, there were more important things to deal with now.
Huo Yandong nodded, suppressing his curiosity for the moment, "Come on, follow me. Brother Yu and the others are already waiting in the box."
Li Shu's eyes flickered slightly, "They?"
"Yes, didn't you want to see He Mingxiao? Brother Yu called him here directly." Huo Yandong said.
Li Shu tilted her head, her black and white eyes were quite pure, revealing a hint of doubt, "Didn't you find out where He Mingxiao was and then rush over?"
Huo Yandong waved his hand and said nonchalantly, "That would be too much trouble. Just call him and ask him to come over. Besides, he has such great reputation that he even asked Brother Yu to go find him in person."
Li Shu raised her eyebrows slightly. She had thought He Mingxiao was already here, but she didn't expect Chen Yu to not ask anyone to check where he was. Instead, he directly called people to him. It was really simple and rough. "So."
Huo Yandong hummed and said, "Let's go in first."
Li Shu nodded, "Okay."
…
Here, several people walked into the club one after another.
Qin Can glanced at Huo Yandong, who was walking a few steps ahead of them, then leaned closer to Li Shu and whispered in her ear, "Master, is he the friend you're talking about?"
Li Shu glanced at him from the corner of her eye, "What's wrong? Do you know him?"
Qin Can touched the bridge of his nose and glanced at Huo Yandong twice secretly. "I know him, but how do you know him, Master? Didn't you just return to the Ji family not long ago?"
"And I remember he was very close to Young Master Shen. Could the Brother Yu he just mentioned be Shen Yu, the eldest son of the Shen family?!"
Li Shu nodded, "Yes, I got to know him through Shen Yu."
Qin Can was slightly stunned when he heard this, then he reacted and couldn't help but widen his eyes and blurted out subconsciously: "What?!"
The corners of Li Shu's mouth twitched slightly. Her apprentice was good in every aspect except that he liked to be startled.
Huo Yandong, who heard the sound in front, suddenly stopped, turned his head to look at him, and asked, "What's wrong?"
Qin Can coughed dryly, shook his hand, and said awkwardly, "It's okay, it's okay, you continue."
Huo Yandong raised his eyebrows, didn't ask any more questions, retracted his gaze, and continued walking towards the elevator.
Qin Can looked at Huo Yandong who was walking in front, picked up the previous topic again, and asked in a low voice: "Master, do you know Mr. Shen?"
"You seem to be quite out of touch with the news. Don't you know that the Ji family and the Shen family are engaged?" Li Shu paused and continued, "Shen Yu...um...my nominal fiancé, isn't it normal for me to know him?"
Qin Can touched the back of his head and said quietly, "Master, now that you mention it, I do remember it. My dad seemed to have mentioned it to me at the time, but I didn't take it to heart."
He suddenly thought of something, clapped his hands as if he had suddenly realized something, his eyes lit up, "Master, if that's the case, then Young Master Shen is my master's master!"
Li Shu: “…”
"Master, am I wrong?" Qin Can asked.
Li Shu's eyelids twitched. She glanced at Huo Yandong, who had stopped in front of the elevator, and said calmly, "Okay, let's get down to business first."
Seeing that she didn't seem to want to talk about this anymore, Qin Can immediately said tactfully, "Yes, Master!"
Huo Yandong pressed the elevator button and turned to look at Li Shu and the others who were passing by. "What have you been mumbling about all this time? Are you saying bad things about me?"
Li Shu raised her hand to adjust the brim of her hat, her face looking quite nonchalant as she said leisurely, "Why would we say bad things about you for no reason? Don't think too much about it."
Huo Yandong thought for a moment, then touched his chin and said, "Are you guys saying bad things about Brother Yu?!"
The corner of Li Shu's mouth twitched slightly, and she suddenly felt that Huo Yandong and Qin Can were on par with each other. "Don't worry, no one told anyone."
Qin Can nodded and agreed: "Yes, yes."
"Okay." Huo Yandong said.
Li Shu stopped talking and noticed the elevator door slowly opening. She put her hands in her pockets, stroking the phone inside, and stepped in first.
Seeing this, Qin Can and the other two immediately followed.
......
After coming out of the elevator, under the leadership of Huo Yandong, Li Shu and others came to the box where Shen Yu was.
When I pushed the door open and walked in, I saw Shen Yu leaning on the sofa in a disheveled manner in the box, with a pair of long legs stretched out casually, and the collar of his black shirt was casually opened with a few buttons, revealing a part of his white neck.
Her beautiful eyes were half-closed, and her slender fingers held a half-burned cigarette, her posture was dignified and lazy.
After hearing the sound of someone coming in, Shen Yu slowly raised his eyelids and looked towards the door. At the same time, he sat up straight, leaned over and put out the cigarette in his hand into the ashtray on the coffee table.
His eyes fell on Li Shu, who was sitting in the front, and he pointed at the sofa next to him, motioning her to sit down.
Li Shu glanced at the middle-aged man in a suit sitting on the other side, her eyes moved slightly, and then she walked over to Shen Yu and sat down.
At this time, Huo Yandong introduced: "Li Shu, this is Director He."
Hearing this, Li Shu looked up at He Mingxiao and greeted him politely, "Hello."
He Mingxiao nodded. After all, he had been in the officialdom for many years. Even though Shen Yu had called him over without giving any reason, after Huo Yandong's introduction, he vaguely noticed that the relationship between Li Shu and Shen Yu seemed a little unusual. He probably guessed what was going on. He smiled amiably and got straight to the point. "I wonder what Miss Li wants to talk to me about?"
Li Shu's delicate eyebrows raised slightly. She hadn't expected He Mingxiao to be so astute. He guessed her intention without saying anything. Without further ado, she slowly said, "Does Director He still remember Qian Xinyuan?"
