Shi Qian no longer rejected him. She had never been polite to Jiang Ci.
Shi Qian went to the first floor a moment later.
“Yan Yi, have you seen Master Zhan?”
“Miss Qianqian, Master Zhan just went to the Intelligence Department,” Yan Yi replied.
“Intelligence department. I understand,” Shi Qian nodded.
Then, she left the villa.
Shi Qian did not go to the Intelligence Department to look for Shang Sizhan. Instead, she sat on a bench in the courtyard and waited for him.
She told him she would attend a gathering in the afternoon and might be back late.
As she waited, she looked at the group chat on her phone.
The five groups of people who had not been active for a long time suddenly became active.
Sheng Xu and Lu Sizhe no longer tagged her in the group when they found she was Mu Youming. They would call her directly or tell her in person.
The last time they were active was when they knew that everyone knew that Mu Youming was the founder of Absolute Subversion. They chatted until midnight.
As for the other two, they still complained about how hard it was for her to hide it from them.
They asked her whether she was a boy or a girl.
Sheng Xu spoke before she could answer. “He’s a man,” and even said they met already.
Shi Qian did not explain this matter afterward.
Only [I’m At The Peak] and [Traceless] strongly reacted to her participation in the gathering.
[I’m at the Peak] was the first to send a message.
[I’m At The Peak: F*ck! Two years! Mu Youming, are you finally going to appear?]
[Mu Youming: Yes, I happened to have time recently.]
[I’m At The Peak: Why didn’t you say so earlier? I wouldn’t have come overseas if I had known you’d attend!]
[Mu Youming: You went overseas?]
[I’m At the Peak: (Sent a disappointed emoji).]
[I’m At the Peak: Yeah. I have something to deal with.]
[Traceless: (Immediately sent a shocked emoji!)]
[Traceless: F*ck! I’m not in Hillford! I thought you wouldn’t come like before!]
Shi Qian was at a loss for words.
[Super Handsome Blasts the Universe: What do you two mean? If Mu Youming hadn’t come, you would have stood him up! Now you’re saying you can’t.]
Sheng Xu’s words weren’t right. The two of them quickly explained.
Relatives would come with sorts of excuses to get married if something happened.
Sheng Xu didn’t listen to their explanation at all.
Then, he sent another message. [Super Handsome Blasts the Universe: Don’t ever appear again!]
[I’m the Peak:…]
[Traceless:…]
Why did it feel like he was [Super Handsome Blasts the Universe]?
That was not his attitude towards Mu Youming!
Shi Qian looked at the screen and smiled.
At this moment, Shang Sizhan’s voice suddenly sounded in her ear. “Qianqian.”
Shi Qian immediately looked up with a smile when she heard someone call her name. “Master Zhan, you’re back.”
Shang Sizhan looked down at her phone and walked towards her. “Who are you chatting with? Why are you so happy?”
Shi Qian looked down at the screen before she stood up and replied. “The people in the game group. Oh, right, Master Zhan, I want to tell you something.”
“What?” Shang Sizhan stopped in front of her.
“Uh… This afternoon, I want to attend a gathering of Absolute Subversion friends. I’ll probably be back late, so you don’t have to wait for me for dinner.” “Where is the gathering?” Shang Sizhan asked.
“A club called Dreamtime,” Shi Qian replied.
Shang Sizhan pondered. He said, “No drinking.”
“Ah?” Shi Qian looked at him in a daze. “My alcohol tolerance isn’t that bad now.”
Shang Sizhan didn’t say anything. His dark eyes stared at her. He did not blink.
The pressure was immediate. Shi Qian knew he meant what he said. She couldn’t drink. She laughed dryly and said, “Alright! I won’t drink it. I won’t drink a single sip..”
