"Xiaobai, are you sure what we're discussing is what you want?"
Qin Bai was slightly taken aback when he saw Pei Wanyin with her arms crossed and a playful smile on her face.
Isn't that so?
"You might not believe me if I say this, but why don't you try it and see whose room you can get into tonight?"
After saying that, Pei Wanyin didn't give him a chance to react and turned to run away.
If Xiaobai catches her, she'll probably be the one with the least resistance.
Since you set the rules yourself, you can't be the first to break them.
It was too late when Qin Bai tried to grab that delicate figure again.
"Wait, Sister Wanyin, please explain yourself. Where am I staying tonight? I..."
Qin Bai was filled with regret. If he had known that these people were plotting to trap him, he would have definitely controlled the god who managed the three palaces and six courtyards first.
It's too late to say anything now.
However, there are some things you should still try.
It's impossible for him to give up after such a good opportunity.
In the depths of winter, snowflakes fall.
The silvery moonlight shone down, illuminating the longing on Qin Bai's face.
He first went to Shen Muyao's door, since this little one was the best-behaved and usually the most obedient.
Qin Bai placed his fingers on the doorknob and pressed down hard.
Huh?
Is it locked?
Oh my god.
Today I'm really not going to believe in superstitions anymore.
He knocked gently on the door a few times.
"Chen, open the door quickly."
There was no movement inside.
"I know you're in there. Open the door quickly, or your little white dog might freeze to death."
Inside the room, Shen Guagua anxiously pressed her ear against the door, listening to the sounds outside.
Her fingers rested on the doorknob, but remembering Pei Wanyin's instructions, she bit her lip hard and returned to the bedside with a worried expression.
Xiaobai, I'm sorry.
You can't come in tonight.
A few minutes later.
Qin Bai, who was outside, was completely heartbroken.
I never expected that even the most obedient Shen Muyao would reject me. There's no point in trying for anyone else; they definitely have no chance.
Yu Xiaoyu might be the one who doesn't know how to lock the door, but it's useless.
The moment he went in, it wouldn't be more than a minute before the bodyguards Yu Shui had sent barged in.
Qin Bai glanced at the door with a melancholy expression, then turned and walked towards the side room.
When he saw the brand-new bedding on the bed, he realized that he would probably be imprisoned here during his time in Kyoto.
Why.
What kind of situation is this?
What a terrible thing to do.
Plates of delicious meat are placed in front of you, but you're not allowed to eat them. Isn't that torture?
He lay in bed and took out his phone.
Find Shen Guaiguai's profile picture.
Qin Bai: Why won't you open the door? Don't you trust me?
Shen Guaiguai: No, Sister Wanyin instructed that you cannot lie in the Gentle Tomb during this period, as it might harm you.
Qin Bai: So what were you discussing just now?
Shen Guaiguai: Work, Sister Wanyin asked us to manage those newly opened companies.
Qin Bai: Huh? ? ? That's all?
Shen Guaiguai: Yes.
Qin Bai pondered for a moment, then suddenly sat up in bed.
The previous dejection vanished instantly.
He seemed to understand what Pei Wanyin meant.
Ultimately, it's a matter of balance.
If he really had to choose where to stay for the night, he would definitely want it all.
There are no multiple-choice questions in the adult world.
Given his personality, he would definitely try to treat everyone equally.
Impartial and unbiased, ensuring everyone receives their share.
But this raises a problem.
I have to go to four rooms every night. One day is fine, two days are okay...
However, if this continues, it will be more than just a matter of indulging in frivolous pursuits and neglecting one's duties.
I might die in this courtyard house in Kyoto.
Pei Wanyin has now perfectly solved this problem by sending these women out, which not only gives them the opportunity to be alone with her, but also prevents them from seeing each other every day.
Given the personalities of Feng Yaoyao and Luo Qingyan, they'd start fighting the moment they met, and in the end, he'd be the one with the headache.
Qin Bai laughed so hard he slapped his thigh, thinking how thoughtful Sister Wanyin was.
......
The next few days unfolded much as Qin Bai had imagined.
After breakfast, the women all went out, and sometimes they wouldn't be seen all day.
Even Yu Xiaoyu wasn't idle; Pei Wanyin arranged for her to work in a company.
Furthermore, fearing they might not adapt well, Pei Wanyin assigned the management team she brought from Pushi to their subordinates. With their help, it wouldn't be long before they were able to handle the company's operations without any problems.
The blizzard in Kyoto has subsided, and the streets are once again filled with commuters hurrying to work.
Qin Bai stepped on the snow, making a crunching sound as he relieved the pressure.
Gu Zichen followed behind him, rubbing his frostbitten cheeks: "Strategist, we've been wandering around the streets like street urchins for ages."
"Let's walk a little further."
"No, what are you looking for?"
"Nothing, I just wanted to see if anyone was following me."
Gu Zichen looked around in all directions.
"You don't trust my business acumen? Anyone who's been with me would have found out by now."
Qin Bai said calmly, "With technology so advanced these days, who knows if it's a real person following us?"
"That's true, but where are you going with all this caution?"
"I've arranged to meet with Deng Yue to discuss future cooperation."
Gu Zichen asked, puzzled, "Why would you want to cooperate with him when you own so many companies in Kyoto?"
"This is different. The Deng family is the only one that can truly compete with Luohe in the business world."
A dozen minutes later, Qin Bai and his companion stopped in front of a courtyard.
Deng Yue's steward rushed over as soon as he saw him, but having learned from his previous experience, he dared not cause any more trouble.
"Mr. Qin, please come in."
"Um."
The two followed the butler into the living room.
When Deng Yue saw him come in, he stood up and said with a smile, "You've finally come. Please have a seat."
Qin Bai smiled and sat down opposite him.
"President Deng chose a rather remote position."
"Hehe, this is for safety reasons, there's no other way."
"I understand. What do you need me for today?"
Deng Yue laughed and said, "I dare not accept such orders."
He waved to the butler and his men, and they immediately left.
Gu Zichen saw Qin Bai nod at him, then he turned and followed the butler out.
At this point, only two people remained inside the room.
The smile on Deng Yue's face slowly faded, and he looked at Qin Bai with utmost seriousness.
"Tell me honestly, do you really want to fight Luohe to the death?"
"You don't need to dwell on this issue. If there were room for negotiation, do you think I would have come to Kyoto?"
Deng Yue slammed his hand on the table: "Alright, since that's the case, how about we join forces?"
Qin Bai was slightly taken aback.
His first reaction.
This guy is trying to scam me.
......
