Chapter 223 The Show Begins



The newly opened bar in the city is called "Seeking Intoxication" and is currently in the trial operation stage. It is located in the most prosperous area of ​​Beijing, where land is extremely valuable. Anyone who can open a bar here must have considerable strength behind them.

Song Qingyou wasn't interested in the bar owner's identity; she had important business to attend to tonight.

A cool breeze blew as Song Qingyou stepped out of the car in a dark blue cheongsam. Her figure was graceful, her face stunning, and her demeanor extraordinary.

As soon as I got out of the car, I was immediately drawn to the entrance. Those who could come here were either rich or powerful. Several people in the industry recognized me and came up to say hello.

"Miss Song, what a coincidence, you're here to support us too?"

Song Qingyou smiled aloofly and politely: "I heard there's a new bar here, so I came with some friends to sit down."

The man laughed and said, "I thought a fairy like you, who doesn't concern herself with worldly affairs, wouldn't come to a vulgar place like a bar."

"President Qin, what are you saying? I'm just like everyone else, no different from anyone else. I'm just an ordinary person. What you like, I naturally like too," Song Qingyou replied with a light laugh.

Upon hearing this, the man referred to as President Qin couldn't help but laugh a few times. After exchanging a few more words, he went inside first.

Song Qingyou didn't rush in. She stood at the door and waited for a few minutes. A black sports car slowly pulled over. Jiang Xun, dressed in a long black trench coat and Martin boots, looked dashing. He didn't look like someone who came to drink; he looked like someone who came to fight.

Song Qingyou waved to her, her voice carrying a hint of the soft, southern Wu dialect: "Jiang Xun, over here."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xun waved the car keys in his hand, indicating that he would come over after parking the car.

Song Qingyou waited for another two minutes before Jiang Xun finally found a parking space and squeezed in.

As he approached, he glanced up at the bar's sign and said, "Gu Bai's bar is in a really good location. It's already packed with people during its trial operation. It seems that he inherited some of the Gu family's business acumen."

Song Qingyou was slightly surprised: "You mean this bar belongs to Gu Bai?"

This time it was Jiang Xun's turn to be surprised: "You didn't know?"

Song Qingyou shook her head.

Jiang Xun said, "Dark Night is also his. His brother basically manages the Gu family's business. Gu Bai himself invests in some entertainment venues and has made quite a bit of money in the past few years."

Song Qingyou really didn't know about this, but while she didn't know, Fu Wenzhou definitely did.

No wonder the man asked her where she was going before she left, and after she told him the location, she saw him smile maliciously.

The two walked inside side by side, and Song Qingyou asked, "Have you found everyone?"

"Hmm." Jiang Xun said casually, "Don't worry about me handling things."

Song Qingyou still trusted Jiang Xun, and the two got along quite well. This time, Yan Miao's matter was also thanks to Jiang Xun's help. The Jiang family's influence also extended to the underworld, and it was just a matter of Jiang Xun saying a word to find a few people to put on a show, saving Song Qingyou a lot of trouble.

Yan Miao and Jiang Xun were merely nodding acquaintances, and Song Qingyou wasn't particularly close to her. When Song Qingyou asked her, she was just trying her luck, but to her surprise, Jiang Xun readily agreed, for which Song Qingyou was genuinely grateful.

Thank you for today.

Jiang Xun raised an eyebrow leisurely: "How rare! The little immortal from the capital personally thanked me."

Knowing she was teasing her, Song Qingyou smiled faintly: "How about I give you an extra 30% of the profits from the next period?"

"It would be foolish not to make money when you can," Jiang Xun replied without hesitation. "This thank-you gift is quite generous. It seems that Yan Miao, this fool, holds a significant place in your heart."

When Song Qingyou heard her say that Yan Miao was stupid, she frowned slightly: "She's not stupid, she's just too naive and has a lot of empathy. She felt sorry for Li Yuan's fabricated background and wanted to help him. As for how much she loves Li Yuan, I don't really think so."

"You seem to know her quite well," Jiang Xun said.

Song Qingyou smiled and said, "We've known each other for a long time. Although we've only been friends for four or five years, we've known each other for twenty years. I even took her to play when she was little."

Jiang Xun envied their friendship, which stemmed from growing up together in the same compound. In Binhai, there was no such childhood friendship; instead, there was only infighting within the clan. Over the years, she had no friends, and even her older cousins ​​were wary of her.

If someone suddenly came up to her and said they wanted to be friends, Jiang Xun would definitely suspect what that person's true intentions were.

The Jiang family has too many branches, and the casino is a family business. The first, second, and third branches are all vying for status, power, and property.

Jiang Xun has to be careful in everything she does.

In short, everyone in the Jiang family is on edge.

Jiang Xun quite liked her life after coming to the capital; it was carefree and unrestrained, something she had always longed for.

Meeting Song Qingyou was an accident, but it seems that she is a friend worth getting to know.

That's why Jiang Xun agreed to help. It wasn't really for the 30% profit, but because he thought Song Qingyou was a good person. She seemed to have a natural charm that could attract the attention of those around her.

Jiang Xun's opinion of her had long since changed.

"Aren't you afraid that Yan Miao will be angry when she finds out the truth?"

Song Qingyou said, "I didn't intend to hide it from her."

As they spoke, the two had already reached their positions.

She deliberately didn't book a private room, but instead booked a booth on the first floor.

Yan Miao arrived early, and as soon as she saw Song Qingyou and Jiang Xun come in, she immediately waved and said, "Come on, come on, I've already ordered the drinks."

Song Qingyou walked over and sat down. The first floor was really noisy, but luckily their seat was in a corner, so they could still be heard if they spoke loudly.

Yan Miao knew that Song Qingyou couldn't drink alcohol, so she poured her a glass of juice, and then poured some low-alcohol fruit wine into her own and Jiang Xun's glasses.

She has always been a good girl since she was a child, and has never drunk strong liquor. The highest amount she has ever drunk is cocktails in bars.

Jiang Xun glanced at it, showing no interest in this childish fruit wine, and directly beckoned the waiter to bring over two bottles of vodka.

Yan Miao clicked her tongue and said, "Two bottles, can you finish them all by yourself?"

Jiang Xun said, "Aren't you going to drink?"

Yan Miao shook her head: "I can't drink something this strong."

This answer was exactly what Jiang Xun expected, but she used to go to bars alone often and never felt lonely.

"Don't worry about whether I can finish it or not. Worry more about yourself."

Her words had a double meaning, but unfortunately Yan Miao was too simple-minded to understand the meaning behind them at all.

Instead, he happily pulled out a die: "Want to play a game? Just drinking is so boring."

Song Qingyou checked the time and nodded, "Mm."

It was supposed to be a game, but it was mostly Jiang Xun and Yan Miao who played it; Song Qingyou didn't participate much, her gaze constantly wandering around the bar.

Li Yuan works part-time here, and as soon as he shows up, the show begins.

Suddenly, her gaze fixed on a certain spot, and her eyes narrowed slightly.

The main character has entered the stage.
