Ivy's words startled Zheng Yu slightly.
She couldn't help but laugh and said, "What are you saying? It's like you know the Imperial Inspector!"
"Of course..."
Ivy almost blurted it out, but she held back.
Of course she knows the Imperial Inspector!
However, how should she describe her relationship with Lin Yu?
Are the two considered friends?
From my perspective, the other person helped me and even saved my life. Of course, they can be considered a friend.
However, when I called them last night, they hung up on me immediately.
This made her feel melancholy and anxious.
Perhaps the other person didn't consider him a friend, but only because he had helped Lan Ling in the past.
Even if the other party wanted to retry his father's case, it was within the duties of the Imperial Inspector, not for his own benefit.
"What's wrong? Say something!" Zheng Yu's expression grew increasingly suspicious.
"Oh, no, no!"
Ivy ultimately didn't reveal her relationship with Lin Yu, and instead changed the subject.
"Oh, by the way, Zheng Yu, it's been so long since we last met. Have you gotten a boyfriend yet? I remember you had a suitor before who would pick you up from get off work every day. I heard he was the son of a high-ranking official!" Ivy couldn't help but tease.
Mentioning this, Zheng Yu's face flushed, but then her eyes dimmed, and she sighed, "You mean Liu Kai? He was really good to me back then. He proposed to me, and I was going to say yes, but ever since my mother had that accident, he was afraid that his family would be implicated, so he cut off contact with me. We haven't been in touch since!"
Ivy was slightly taken aback. She saw a trace of resentment in Zheng Yu's eyes, which clearly showed that he had also been sincere.
She sighed, took his delicate hand in hers, and said, "It's for the best! He abandoned you when you were most helpless, which shows he's not someone who can share hardships. Even if you married someone like that, you wouldn't go far! It's a good thing you realized it early!"
Zheng Yu nodded and gave a self-deprecating laugh. "I've long since come to terms with it. There are plenty of men in this world. Two-legged toads are hard to find, but there are plenty of two-legged men, aren't there?"
"Oh, by the way, what about you! You big star, have you found your frog prince yet? I heard you're getting close to that chicken brother who can play basketball, and there are always rumors about you?" Zheng Yu couldn't help but tease him.
Ivy gave her a disgruntled look. "Don't even mention that clown. Do you really think I haven't seen him play basketball? He's not even as good as me. He's so weak he can't even kill a chicken!"
"Really?" Zheng Yu asked curiously. "I heard he's quite talented and is the future of Chinese pop music! Is he really that bad?"
“It’s not that he’s bad!” Ivy shook her head. “I’ve worked with him on a show before, and I felt he was pretty strange… Let me tell you…”
Ivy waved her hand, signaling Zheng Yu to come closer, and the two immediately began to whisper to each other.
We don't know exactly what they were talking about, but the two of them kept giggling.
Just then, an Alphard minivan pulled up outside the dim sum restaurant.
The car door opened, and several pairs of shiny leather shoes stepped out. Each of them was tall and burly, clearly bodyguards.
Then, two men in fine clothes got out of the car.
One of the two was heavily armed, as if afraid of being recognized.
It was none other than Dai Li, who had absconded with 20 billion yuan and was on the run.
Beside him stood a young man in his early twenties, with an arrogant expression, dark circles under his eyes, and unsteady steps, clearly someone who had overexerted himself.
"Young Master Huang, you won a lot last night, your luck was off the charts! How about we go all in again after dinner?" Dai Li said with a fawning smile.
Last night, he set up a scheme that allowed this young master Huang to win tens of millions.
At this moment, Young Master Huang was practically floating on air. Although he was quite wealthy, tens of millions was still a considerable sum for him personally—enough to buy several sports cars he liked and date a few third-tier celebrities!
"Old Dai, I've heard of you since I was in Harbin. You're a reliable guy! Okay, since my dad's going to be staying in Qingdao for several days anyway, I'll stay here a few more days!" Huang Fusheng smiled contentedly.
Dai Li smiled and nodded, gesturing for the tea shop to proceed, "Young Master Huang, please go first!"
"Don't be shy, let's drink together!"
As Huang Fusheng was speaking, he was about to walk inside when, through the shop's glass, he suddenly saw two beautiful women sitting by the window.
One of them was fully armed, and although his face was obscured, his aura was extraordinary, like that of a big star, making it impossible not to take a second look.
The other one was without makeup, wearing only light makeup, but she was as beautiful as a fairy.
Glug!
Huang Fusheng swallowed hard.
His greatest hobbies in life were prostitution and gambling. Gambling was one thing, since his family had plenty of money and he could afford to lose, but his prostitution had caused him no shortage of trouble.
Moreover, he has unusual fetishes that often lead to people's deaths, and his family is constantly cleaning up his messes.
Last time it was a female teacher who asked him to find someone to lead the way for...
It's been half a year since this happened. He's been locked up by his dad for the past six months, and he doesn't know how long he's been holding back. Now that he's seen this beautiful woman, he can't move.
Dai Li's eyes flashed, and a cold smirk appeared on his lips. "What? Young Master Huang, you've taken a fancy to this woman? How about we invite this young lady to play Texas Hold'em with you?"
Huang Fusheng snapped out of his daze, remembering his father's instructions, and subconsciously shook his head. "My dad said that if I cause trouble again, he'll disown me. The company is currently selecting a successor, and my cousins are eyeing it covetously. I can't afford to make a mistake!"
"Hey! Young Master Huang, you're overthinking it. This is Qing City, a remote and impoverished place. What if something happens here? It's not like Harbin, where a small matter would be quickly suppressed! Besides, even if something really happens, it'll just cost you some money. I think this woman is just an ordinary person. Don't worry, I'll handle the aftermath for you. It has nothing to do with you!" Dai Li couldn't help but tempt him.
Huang Fusheng's heart skipped a beat, and the corners of his mouth slowly curved up. "Haha, okay! Boss Dai, you're such a good person! It's settled then. Don't worry, as long as I'm comfortable, I'll find more friends to patronize your business!"
"Okay! It's settled then!"
Dai Li casually pulled out a key and handed it to Huang Fusheng. "I have a self-built villa by Nanhu Lake in the suburbs. It doesn't have a property right, and nobody knows about it. After you get it, Young Master Huang, you can go there and have some fun for a few days! I'll send a few friends over to play with you!"
"Okay! It's settled then!"
As Huang Fusheng spoke, he took a bottle of clear liquid out of his pocket and handed it to his subordinate, "When they come out, you don't need me to tell you what to do, right?"
Dai Li's eyes widened slightly in surprise. "Young Master Huang, this is..."
