Zhu Qianying took Qin Xiu's hand and stepped through the gate. As soon as she entered, she felt a sense of incongruity, as if she had entered another world.
The music that sounded deafening outside turned into music with a slightly erotic undertone once it came in.
The living room was large, with several sofas casually placed around it. A number of people, both men and women, were sitting in small groups on the sofas, their postures unrestrained and explicit. Hugging and embracing were commonplace, and some men were even pinning their female companions down on the sofas…
Zhu Qianying wasn't a conservative woman who stayed indoors all the time, so she would occasionally visit public entertainment venues like bars and nightclubs. But those places were, after all, respectable places of consumption. Men and women might dress sexily, but not like what she saw before her—it wouldn't be an exaggeration to describe it as revealing. Moreover, in those places, most people behaved reasonably well, unlike the frivolous and shameless behavior she witnessed before her.
If she were to compare what she had seen in those entertainment venues before with what she was seeing now, it would be like the difference between innocent children's cartoons and adult-only cartoons.
That's right, she now vaguely realized that this wasn't a fun party, but rather, a sex party!
She turned her probing gaze away from the lavish scene in the living room and looked at Qin Xiu with a puzzled expression.
Qin Xiu, however, kept his eyes straight ahead, as if what he saw before him was nothing more than a landscape painting on the wall.
Clearly, he was either used to such occasions, or he knew beforehand that he would see this scene.
With this thought, Zhu Qianying suddenly calmed down.
She knew that Young Master Yan had sent Qin Xiu here not to attend this kind of party, but for some other important matter.
However, it's not convenient to mention this to her beforehand, or there's not enough time to mention it to her.
Since that's the case, she'll just refrain from asking or saying anything for now and wait and see how things develop.
Qin Xiu didn't seem to have any intention of explaining to her, and took her arm as they walked along the edge of the living room to the stairwell.
A man dressed as a waiter in his early twenties came up to Qin Xiu and whispered, "Young Master Qin, you've arrived! The room is ready, the third room on the left on the fifth floor."
Qin Xiu nodded to the man, took Zhu Qianying's arm and went upstairs. Following the man's directions, they found the corresponding room, looked around cautiously, and then pushed open the door and went inside.
Upon entering, before Zhu Qianying could even ask Qin Xiu anything, he lowered his arm, hurriedly went into the bedroom, and took out something resembling a sensor, wandering around a corner of the bedroom.
Zhu Qianying, on the other hand, had some free time and began to carefully examine the room.
This room is clearly a guest room, but it's much more spacious than the master bedroom in an average home.
Besides the king-size luxury bed, there is a small living room, bar, and projection equipment on the terrace side.
"Shadow, sit down!"
After Qin Xiu walked around the bedroom with the sensor, he finally called out to Zhu Qianying.
Zhu Qianying walked to the small living room and sat down on the sofa.
She watched quietly as Qin Xiu fiddled with the sensor up and down several times, asking no questions, but secretly wondering about Yan Shao's purpose in bringing her here.
Qin Xiu seemed very familiar with the layout of this place, and he also seemed quite familiar with the people here. Could it be that this really is Young Master Yan's villa?
Based on Zhu Qianying's understanding of Yan Shao, although he is domineering and has a strange temper, he is by no means lecherous, much less vulgar.
Furthermore, someone with such severe obsession with cleanliness even in daily life would likely also have severe obsession with cleanliness in matters of sex.
Besides, with his good looks and prominent background, even if it were known that he was a married man, there would certainly be many relatively "clean" women for him to choose from. Why would he need to use such a despicable and vulgar way to select his playmates?
Just as she was pondering this, Qin Xiu, who had just slipped into the bathroom, appeared like a ghost, walked up to her, pointed to the refrigerator behind her, and whispered something.
"Shadow, you can drink whatever you want from the fridge! Try not to touch the drinks at the bar!"
Qin Xiu's words only deepened Zhu Qianying's doubts.
However, she was a smart woman. Seeing that Qin Xiu was still testing something inside and out, she naturally didn't dare to ask any questions.
If she wasn't mistaken, Qin Xiu was probably checking if there were any surveillance facilities or something similar here.
Qin Xiu came out of the washroom, then went into the bathroom, and then the dressing room. It was more than ten minutes later when he finally sat down on the sofa, panting.
"Shadow, don't you find this strange?"
Qin Xiu really admired Zhu Qianying. Since entering the villa, she hadn't said or asked many questions. Such a composed woman was indeed rare.
No wonder my husband has been so hung up on her all these years.
In the evening, when Yan Shao assigned him this task, he was worried that Zhu Qianying would panic because she was completely unaware of it, but Yan Shao said, "She won't!"
As it turns out, Yan Shao's judgment of Zhu Qianying was completely correct!
Zhu Qianying looked at him quietly for a while before saying, "You must find it strange, but I trust Young Master Yan, and I trust you too!"
Zhu Qianying's eyes were calm, and her expression was quite natural, showing no signs of lying.
At this moment, Qin Xiu almost knelt down and bowed to Zhu Qianying.
This girl seems to have a natural talent for winning people over; in this business, she's definitely on par with her boss.
"Thank you for your trust in me. You have no idea how sweaty my palms were when I helped you in the door."
Qin Xiu had seen his share of storms, but just now, he was genuinely nervous.
"I just don't understand. If you're so nervous, you could have just told me the purpose of your trip on the way here. Why take this risk?"
Qin Xiu looked at her intently, hesitated for a moment, and finally spoke.
"It was my father who told me not to say it. He said that if I explained it to you, you probably wouldn't have come at all!"
Zhu Qianying became increasingly puzzled. What exactly was Yan Shao up to? What was he trying to do with such a mysterious aura?
Zhu Qianying raised an eyebrow. "Aren't you afraid I'll ruin things?"
Qin Xiu felt that there was no real difference between betraying one's boss once and twice or three times.
"I said, you can't!"
Zhu Qianying rolled her eyes. When did Young Master Yan become so knowledgeable about her? How come she didn't know?
So, what exactly are we here for?
Qin Xiu didn't answer her immediately. Instead, he bent down, reached over to the coffee table, grabbed the remote, and turned on the projector with a "snap."
"Come watch the show!"
