Fu Siye didn't respond, but gave Mu Yinyin a look.
Mu Yinyin realized this and followed Fu Siye's steps, but she still spoke first, "Qi Mo has registered, and the game is about to begin."
The implication was that she couldn't go far with him.
Fu Siye could have directly revealed his intentions to Lu Shan, but he noticed that Lu Shan was someone Mu Yinyin wanted to know the identity of and investigate further.
Besides, he didn't like talking much in front of people he didn't know well.
"I'm going out tomorrow, you will accompany me."
This was Fu Siye's request.
What Mu Yinyin found speechless was that she had actively sought out Fu Siye, asking for sincerity, but Fu Siye not only refused her but even condemned her for Nan Shiqing.
Now that he needed her for something, he made a demand like this?
What did he take her for?
"No, I have my own arrangements tomorrow. If you need a female companion, you can ask Mu Teng... Oh, isn't Nan Shiqing also here? Why don't you ask Nan Shiqing?" Mu Yinyin narrowed her eyes, her gaze filled with indifference and disappointment towards Fu Siye.
Then, she let out a sneer, "You can't possibly need me to help you socialize while you're unwilling to part with your beloved, can you?"
"This matter, only you can do it," Fu Siye pursed his lips, his expression becoming solemn.
It seemed Fu Siye wasn't lying.
Thinking of Lu Shan who was nearby, Mu Yinyin's heart sank. She immediately proposed her condition, "It's not impossible for me to accompany you, but there's no free lunch, Mr. Fu. You have to give all of yours for what you want."
"What do you want me to do? Or who is behind Lu Shan?" Hearing Mu Yinyin's words, Fu Siye immediately frowned and asked.
Mu Yinyin smiled, "Otherwise, would I still be begging you to remarry me?"
"A good horse doesn't return to eat the grass it has left, especially grass that others have eaten!" Mu Yinyin harbored resentment, so she added another blow to Fu Siye.
Fu Siye's face was as dark and heavy as an unresolvable ink mass, "Your hostility towards Shiqing is too strong..."
Mu Yinyin immediately let out a cold laugh, "Then how do you explain Lu Shan appearing beside me now? Is it a coincidence?"
Fu Siye said in a deep voice, "You are wearing a mask now."
"Hmph—" Mu Yinyin looked at him disdainfully, "But Lu Shan already knows my name and Qi Mo's. Fu Siye, things are not as simple as you think!"
Fu Siye's heart still leaned towards Nan Shiqing.
Mu Yinyin directly retorted, but Fu Siye remained so insistent.
She couldn't be bothered to look at Fu Siye anymore.
She even stated it plainly, "If you don't want to make a deal, please turn around."
After speaking, Mu Yinyin turned directly.
Her attitude explained everything.
However, before she could take a step, Fu Siye grabbed her. Fu Siye's eyes were deep, "I can cooperate with you as you wish, but let's get this straight, Mu Yinyin. If there's no substantive involvement, don't be so excessive towards Shiqing in the future."
He mentioned Nan Shiqing incessantly.
It was better if he didn't mention Nan Shiqing, but the moment he did, Mu Yinyin's anger flared. "May I ask, in what way have I been excessive? If there were no surveillance, no recordings, and if she, Nan Shiqing, were the one being plagiarized, would you, Fu Siye, blame her and come to protect me?"
Fu Siye remained silent with a stern face.
Although he didn't answer, Mu Yinyin knew that 'no' was a very certain answer.
"I haven't sued her in court, which is already being exceptionally lenient. Unless my doubts are confirmed, I won't dismiss the suspicions in my heart." httpδ:/m.kuAisugg.nět
"Fu Siye, this is a fair exchange. If you want to exchange, then please, shut up now, immediately. I don't want to hear the name 'Nan Shiqing' from your mouth anymore!"
Mu Yinyin's brows were furrowed, and she said angrily.
If it were usual, Fu Siye might have looked displeased after Mu Yinyin said these words, but this time, Mu Yinyin's insistence on him not mentioning Nan Shiqing proved what?
She was jealous.
Fu Siye sneered, not refuting Mu Yinyin's words.
But Mu Yinyin was unaffected. As long as the person behind it could be exposed, what was the harm?
When Qi Mo returned after registering, the first thing he saw was Fu Siye beside Mu Yinyin.
The black mask made him appear even more cold and majestic.
"Mr. Qi, thank you for your trouble this time." As Qi Mo walked over, Fu Siye spoke these words, and he slowly curved his lips, his voice betraying no emotion.
But these words displeased Qi Mo, who couldn't help but frown, "Mr. Fu, your words are inappropriate. I registered to compete with Yinyin and myself. Where do your words come from?"
Although Qi Mo understood Fu Siye's meaning, and Mu Yinyin's calm expression beside him meant she implicitly agreed,
But why should he pave the way for Fu Siye?
"Mr. Qi, I will thank you properly another day. I will compete with her in today's game," Fu Siye nodded towards Qi Mo, his tone carrying a hint of apology.
Qi Mo didn't want to hear Fu Siye say these things. His gaze then fell on Mu Yinyin.
Although he already knew Mu Yinyin's intentions, he wanted to hear her answer in person!
"Yes, Qi Mo, I'm sorry to trouble you."
Mu Yinyin also followed suit, nodding apologetically at Qi Mo.
After Fu Siye refused, she had planned to participate in the game with Qi Mo, but no one expected Fu Siye to approach her again with conditions.
Since Lu Shan was Nan Shiqing's connection, they would use Fu Siye to draw out the person behind Lu Shan!
Qi Mo was displeased, but it was only towards Fu Siye.
He said nothing, but the gloom in his eyes said it all.
"What trouble? If we win the championship later, you'll have to give me half the prize money! And you'll definitely take me along for the future free meals, right?"
Qi Mo asked these questions with a gentle smile on his lips.
However, Mu Yinyin had a feeling that he was being wronged.
Mu Yinyin's eyes flickered, and finally, she said slowly, "That is natural."
With the awards they would receive, and meeting the one or two people mentioned by the host, how could the subsequent awards be shared with Fu Siye?
She wasn't stupid!
Fu Siye's eyes suddenly deepened again.
The game soon began, a guessing game—
As the host announced the start, he first introduced the historical riddles and lantern riddles of country Z.
Mu Yinyin and Fu Siye's wrists were tied together, revealing their cooperative identity.
As they stood in line waiting, Qi Mo sat in his original position, holding a glass of red wine.
