Qin Bai felt a hint of surprise, but his face remained calm and composed.
This person is quite intelligent; they figured out so many details so quickly.
"There was no plan; it was just something I did on a whim."
"One last question: if we become allies, will I become a pawn in your scheme?"
Qin Bai smiled calmly and said, "How can you be so sure that you're not in the game right now?"
Deng Yue didn't speak, but stared intently at him.
Their eyes met, and neither of them backed down.
A moment later.
Deng Yue smiled and said, "Good, very good. I should thank Uncle Yu for introducing you."
"You flatter me. I hope we can work together happily during our time in Kyoto."
"Tell me your thoughts, and I'll try my best to cooperate with you."
At this point, Deng Yue's tone of voice had changed.
The king standing in front of others is not scary; what is scary are the strategists behind him.
But what if the king and the strategist are the same person...?
Deng Yue no longer wanted to think about it.
Qin Bai said, "I've heard a bit about your feud with the Luo family, and I'd like to know your thoughts on it."
Deng Yue gritted his teeth and said, "Luohe killed my father, and we are now locked in a life-or-death struggle."
"And who's behind that? You...?"
"Qin Bai," Deng Yue interrupted him sharply, "You'll get into trouble if you keep your mouth shut."
Qin Bai waved his hand dismissively: "This conference room has signal jammers. Trust my men's skills; they'll let me know in advance if anything happens."
Deng Yue breathed a long sigh of relief.
You guessed it, didn't you?
“That’s right. Given Luo He’s personality, he would never be so mortal as to have a blood feud with your Deng family unless someone above him gives the order.”
Deng Yue nodded helplessly: "That's true. Actually, my father's death was an accident. The people above didn't expect it to end like this."
Qin Bai stroked his chin and said, "Then can I interpret this as the Deng family developing too fast, and they just want to slightly slow down your development speed?"
"It's not that simple."
"Oh, so you've chosen the wrong side."
Qin Bai's tone was firm: "According to this conjecture, your side will not stand by and watch you suffer losses, after all, it would create hidden dangers if people's hearts were chilled."
A barely perceptible ripple flashed in Deng Yue's gaze as he looked at him.
Qin Bai continued, "So, you should have received appropriate compensation after the incident, am I right?"
Deng Yue unconsciously shifted his body back a little.
If I was shocked just now, I am now terrified.
Talent is something that cannot be compensated for by hard work.
Some people are born with a predetermined upper limit in their lives.
But some people have no limits at all.
Qin Bai was among this type of person.
He had never been exposed to bureaucratic practices, yet he could deduce everything that could happen from a few snippets of conversation.
"Why are you making that face? I'm not going to eat you." Qin Bai gave a very sunny smile.
But in Deng Yue's view...
That bastard is definitely up to his old tricks again.
He tentatively asked, "Is your purpose in coming to Kyoto really only the Luo family?"
Qin Bai countered, "So, the only family you want to deal with is the Luo family?"
His smile was meaningful.
It was an hour later when the two of them came out of the meeting room.
No one knows what the two talked about inside.
However, when Deng Yue came out, he was all smiles.
"Bro, I've got the arrangements for tonight. You can pick the place, and I guarantee you'll be satisfied, no matter which 'dragon' you choose—internet celebrities, escorts..."
Qin Bai stepped forward and covered the guy's mouth.
"Holy crap, you did this on purpose, didn't you? You definitely did it on purpose."
Deng Yue struggled to ask, "What's wrong? I didn't say anything."
"What else do you want to say? Get out of here, or I'll hit you!"
As he spoke, Qin Bai kept looking around, a stark contrast to his earlier wisdom.
Deng Yue stared at him in disbelief for a long time, then muttered "crazy" and turned to leave.
Qin Bai breathed a sigh of relief when he didn't see the two pretty figures.
If Dudu Fish heard this, it might be alright, since she doesn't understand anything anyway. At most, she would just ask why he was being offered a full-service package.
But the little yandere is different; she'll definitely remember this for the rest of her life, and it might explode at any time.
It's a whole chain of services.
Do you believe I can perform a miraculous ascension to heaven on the spot, standing shoulder to shoulder with the sun?
You should stay away from this person from now on.
Not very good.
......
At night, Kyoto is covered with a dreamlike atmosphere by colorful neon lights.
The streets are bustling with people, some chasing dreams and others losing them as they pass by.
The vast city of Kyoto cannot contain everything everyone wants, but it can drive away those who have fallen behind.
Under the overpass, a blind man was holding a microphone and performing with deep emotion, trying to grasp at that elusive possibility.
Qin Bai stood there for a while, then took out his phone and scanned the QR code pasted on the instrument case.
Gu Zichen asked, "I didn't realize you had such a kind heart?"
"What kindness?"
"Weren't you sweeping money for him?"
"You're overthinking it. I just wanted to see if that singer was really blind."
Gu Zichen carefully examined the pair of eyes hidden behind the sunglasses, which gleamed with greed.
Damn it.
He's faking it.
"Strategist, wait for me, slow down."
