"Why are you shaking your head?" Lü Liang walked over.
This world, neither vast nor small, was all within one system. They had met before, but Xin Dali was not as familiar with Xu Dahai.
"Nothing? How was the drinking?"
"It's okay. That kid Dahai can't hold on much longer. His tongue isn't cooperating anymore."
"Tell him to drink less. With so many people, don't let him make a fool of himself in public."
"It's alright. Everyone here tonight is helping; there are no outsiders. I just heard Dahai say you guys came with a mission."
"Yes. The higher-ups still want Yangzi to rejoin the team."
"Director Jiang came specifically to talk to him, but he didn't agree."
"Let nature take its course. This is not something that can be forced. Even if he were to go reluctantly, it would be better if he didn't go at all, given that he wouldn't put in full effort."
"It's good that you know. Since you're here, shall we have a drink, brother?"
"Sure." Xin Dali accepted any offer.
He couldn't remember how much he drank in the end, only that when he woke up the next day, it was already dawn.
Pi Xiaoqian and Wang Yu chatted more and more warmly. Whether they ended up watching a movie was unknown, but Jiang Wuxi definitely didn't go with them.
She was pulled by Xin Rui to the warehouse of the King's Villa to the west.
Xin Rui was stimulated by what Guo Xuyang had said and insisted on choosing a rough stone.
Accompanying them were Xiao Yu, Xiao Hong, Yu'er, Lin Ziqi, and Lin Zixuan. The others had either gone with Xiao Yun to the hotel or to the artificial lake villa.
Xiao Yu and Lü Liang returned to their own small dwelling.
The two were already discussing marriage, and they had been living together shortly after Lü Liang arrived in the provincial capital.
Of course, before leaving, Guo Xuyang secretly slipped a rough stone, about the size of a child's fist, to Pi Xiaoqian.
He knew that Pi Xiaoqian didn't have any jade rough stones in his car.
Pi Xiaoqian knew at that moment that since Guo Xuyang had said so, he would definitely find a way to prepare a small stone for him, so he wasn't worried about being exposed at all.
Although he had drunk a lot, Wang Yu hadn't. He directly handed the car keys to Wang Yu, asking her to take him to the movies.
Wang Yu had also been stimulated at the drinking table.
From the subsequent conversations among the group, she learned that the small stone Guo Xuyang had given Xin Rui earlier had been cut and was worth around thirty million.
Later, when they got into the car, Pi Xiaoqian also gave her a small stone.
She was somewhat expectant. Although gambling on stones had its gains and losses, she believed that the small stone Pi Xiaoqian gave her would also be valuable.
Even if it wasn't thirty million, earning thirty thousand would be a profit.
Moreover, Guo Xuyang said he was the general manager of a jade specialty store, which made him a definite catch.
It would be too foolish to miss this opportunity.
Since the man was interested and the woman was willing, everything naturally fell into place.
That night, Wang Yu didn't drive to the cinema but went straight to a large hotel.
Although Pi Xiaoqian had drunk a lot, he wasn't drunk.
He was aware of Wang Yu booking a room, showering, and getting into bed. He hadn't expected Wang Yu to be so proactive.
He had initially just intended to have some fun, but it was only when he discovered the striking color on the bedsheet that he truly came to his senses.
He also understood why Guo Xuyang had so strongly recommended Wang Yu to him.
This was truly an effort to bring the two of them together.
Although he still had feelings for Li Minyu, Li Minyu's repeated rejections had made him gradually lose his patience.
Looking at the sleeping Wang Yu, he noticed a slight resemblance between her and Li Minyu.
However, Wang Yu's face held more of a youthful innocence, along with a slight frown.
He couldn't help but reach out and stroke Wang Yu's brow, unintentionally waking her up.
"I'm sorry, I couldn't help myself," Pi Xiaoqian said, touching her cheek.
"I was willing."
"I will take responsibility for you."
"Mmm." Although it was Wang Yu's first time, as a top student in the medical school, she was not unfamiliar with human anatomy.
She quietly reached down.
How could Pi Xiaoqian resist Wang Yu's teasing? He immediately flipped over, and the room once again echoed with a charming symphony.
