“Are you okay, Tian Tian?”
Fu Yanli quickly poured a glass of tea and began to feed it to Chu Tiantian.
Chu Tiantian coughed a few times, her face looking a little pale.
She only remembered drinking a cocktail at the time, and then she couldn't recall anything else.
When she saw Fu Yanli and Qin Hui, she was a bit dazed.
“Yan Jie, how did I get here?”
Chu Tiantian asked, a little confused.
“Those two blond guys drugged you. It’s all over now,”
Qin Hui spoke up at this moment.
Hearing Qin Hui say this, Chu Tiantian seemed to recall something and then cried bitterly, hugging her blanket.
It was conceivable that if Qin Hui hadn’t arrived in time, the consequences would have been dire.
“Alright, don’t cry, go back to your room and rest first.”
Fu Yanli also looked helpless and then helped Chu Tiantian back to her room.
Although Qin Hui’s room was also nice, it was ultimately not suitable.
After escorting Chu Tiantian back to her room, Fu Yanli returned to Qin Hui’s room.
“Qin Hui, thank you for this time.”
Through this incident, Fu Yanli’s opinion of Qin Hui had changed considerably. At least Qin Hui was a decent person, which was rare sincerity.
“If that’s all you have to say, then forget it.”
Qin Hui waved his hand, not in the mood. Qin Hui was planning what to do next.
Qin Hui was not a fool to wait for the Qin family to make a move. Qin Hui needed to plan how to resolve their schemes.
“Actually, Tian Tian didn’t want to get into this line of work at first, but she has a sick younger brother at home. You know, this line of work brings in money quickly.”
Knowing that Qin Hui didn’t want to hear this, Fu Yanli still said it, at least to make herself feel a bit better.
It’s important to know that not everyone wants to enter this profession. The world is cruel and realistic, and not everyone’s fate is so good.
Some people are born with a silver spoon in their mouths, while others are born to struggle with poverty.
“Just say what you want to say.”
Qin Hui picked up a blueberry from the fruit platter and popped it into his mouth.
“Originally, I thought your opponent was the Qin family and the Sun family, but now it seems the Qin family is the main one.”
Fu Yanli paused after saying this.
Clearly, she wanted to pique Qin Hui’s interest.
Qin Hui didn’t expose her and just nodded, indicating for Fu Yanli to continue.
“Although you and the Sun family are sworn enemies, judging by Sun Wutian’s attitude, he doesn’t seem to mind these things. Let’s look at it from another angle: if you hadn’t eliminated Sun family’s two heirs, he wouldn’t have been able to reach this position today.”
“If you can reach an agreement with Sun Wutian, then your grievances with the Sun family will be wiped clean, as long as he can ascend to the position of Sun family patriarch.”
“To secure that position, he needs a strong and capable ally.”
“So, he is testing you. Only when you pass his test will you become allies in the future.”
“In this world, it’s better to have one more friend than one more enemy. You understand this principle, right?”
Fu Yanli poured out all her thoughts in one breath. Although this differed slightly from Sun Wutian’s plan, it was roughly the same.
Qin Hui smiled slightly upon hearing this and continued to pop blueberries into his mouth.
“What, am I wrong?”
Seeing Qin Hui’s indifference, Fu Yanli asked in surprise.
“Everything you said is correct, but why are you telling me this?”
“Don’t tell me it’s out of gratitude to Chu Tiantian, because that gratitude isn’t enough for you to reveal so much to me.”
Qin Hui smiled faintly.
“So, you figured it all out after I said so much?”
Fu Yanli was defeated. Running a bar like this showed Fu Yanli was quite cunning, but she hadn’t expected that everything she thought of had already been predicted by Qin Hui.
It was like playing chess, where the opponent already knew your next move.
“More or less, but I still thank you for telling me this. It seems you are not simple either.”
Qin Hui twisted his neck and stood up.
Initially, Qin Hui didn’t have a good impression of Fu Yanli because she was too scheming.
But on second thought, if these schemes were all for his benefit, it would be another matter.
Who wouldn’t like a sensible and intelligent secretary by their side?
“What are you planning to do next?”
“Bai Xiong has a very fiery temper. If you provoke him, you won’t get any good results.”
Fu Yanli said with some concern.
“Compared to that, I’m more curious why you’re telling me so much. What benefits will you gain?”
Qin Hui was straightforward.
No one in this world would do you favors for no reason. Qin Hui, having come this far, understood this principle best. Fu Yanli helping him so much must have her own needs.
“One hundred million. As long as you give me one hundred million, I can help you with anything!”
Fu Yanli didn’t beat around the bush and stated her request directly.
If it were someone else, Fu Yanli would never have made this offer, but she believed that this amount was just a number to Qin Hui.
No matter how glamorous Fu Yanli appeared on the surface, in the eyes of the truly wealthy, she was just a high-class plaything.
Therefore, Fu Yanli had an absolute obsession with money. With one hundred million, she could easily leave the Imperial Dynasty Bar and live the life she desired.
After staying in a dirty place for too long, one always needs to get out. One can’t stay there forever.
Just like the martial world of old, one eventually has to retire and wash their hands of the affair when they get old.
And this one hundred million was Fu Yanli’s security deposit. With this money, she could easily leave Yan Jing.
Most importantly, Fu Yanli wanted to escape her family’s arrangements and live the life she wanted.
Qin Hui hadn’t expected Fu Yanli to be so decisive in her request.
However, Qin Hui liked working with decisive people; those who were secretive were the most tedious.
“Alright, I can agree to that, but for now, how do you think I should deal with Bai Xiong?”
Qin Hui asked truthfully.
When it came to schemes and foresight, Qin Hui had them too, but Qin Hui knew one thing: Fu Yanli understood the connections in Yan Jing better than he did, and seeking her help would be twice as effective with half the effort.
“It’s the same as my previous suggestion: use Lu Yueyue to resolve this crisis.”
“I know you don’t want to use others, but isn’t a person’s value precisely in being used?”
“If I had no value, you probably wouldn’t even look at me twice!”
Fu Yanli said with great conviction.
“Okay, we’ll do as you say.”
Qin Hui nodded slightly, but he still needed to make some adjustments to the specific plan.
While using people was using them, Qin Hui still didn’t want Lu Yueyue to get into too much trouble because of this matter.
As for minor troubles, he would let the Lu family patriarch worry about them.
Qin Hui couldn’t handle everything himself, could he?
“I will go and gather information on Bai Xiong. Tomorrow, I will bring Lu Yueyue to you.”
Fu Yanli said with resolute eyes.
“It seems you are not very loyal to the Lu family either.”
Qin Hui said with a faint smile, continuing to eat his blueberries. Qin Hui didn’t care about other people’s past as long as the ally was reliable.
