Chapter 111 Fishy

The next morning, a little after eight o'clock.

An Qiqi got up and practiced yoga on the hotel balcony. The bright sunlight shone in, illuminating her young and vibrant body, a scene as beautiful as a painting.

Next to her, Qiuqiu was applying light makeup in front of the dressing table. "Where are we going today? Or are we planning to sneak away?"

"Hah~!"

An Qiqi exhaled slowly and gently rotated her neck, saying, "We've had enough fun. Let's rest today, grab a bite to eat, and head back tonight."

"Alright, we've been playing for so long, it's time to focus on work." Qiuqiu turned her head and said, "Let's go for some tea and take some photos this afternoon, and take a boat back in the evening?"

"Sounds good!"

As the two were chatting, Wang Ying walked out of the inner bedroom, with a heating pad wrapped around her stomach. It was hard to tell if she had been stabbed too deeply by the gun thorn last night and needed the warmth to soothe the wound.

"Are you leaving today?" Wang Ying asked.

"Yeah!" Qiuqiu replied, "We've been playing for a long time, it's time to go back. My mom called me yesterday, urging me."

Wang Ying scratched her head, "Oh, can't we stay another day?! My partner called me yesterday, asking where I was. I told him I was on vacation, and he insisted on bringing a client for an evening dinner. I couldn't refuse."

Hearing this, Qiuqiu immediately frowned, "Hey, sister, we came here for a vacation. There are three of us, you know? Can you consider us when you do things?"

"I thought we were going to play for another two days, you didn't say you were leaving today, did you?" Wang Ying pouted.

"Then you stay here," Qiuqiu said lightly, "We'll go back."

"Oh, we came together, let's go together!" Wang Ying reached out and pulled Qiuqiu, saying, "And I already told my partner that I'd bring two sisters to sit with us."

Hearing this, Qiuqiu instantly became unhappy, "Are you sick?! Who are they to me? Why would I go sit with them?"

"Look at you, getting all worked up." Wang Ying held Qiuqiu's arm and said humbly, "It's just a formal gathering, not some kind of power-sex trade, what are you nervous about?"

"Tch, the people you know aren't worthy of a power-sex trade with me! Dream on!" Although Qiuqiu often helped Wang Ying, she always spoke to her like a big brother to a little brother in everyday conversation, and this change began after the Wang family's decline.

Wang Ying wasn't angry, and only said coquettishly, "I'm letting you go so you can see the partner and the client! After all, you've invested so much money... you're practically shareholders, so what's wrong with meeting them?"

"I'm not a shareholder," An Qiqi said with a smile, "I'm just helping you out."

"I'm not going." Qiuqiu said with a sulky face.

"Oh, good sister, just come with me." Wang Ying held Qiuqiu's arm, her posture extremely low, "They're a bunch of guys, aren't you afraid I'll drink too much and get taken advantage of?"

"Serves you right if you get taken advantage of, you're in that kind of business, can we be with you every day?!"

"Come on, I'll also let them introduce you to the company's business, so you can feel more at ease." Wang Ying said softly, "And the people in this circle are realistic, but their connections are very wide. Your little treasury is so rich, it'll be convenient to make some extra investments in the future. Resource sharing, you know."

"Sigh~!"

Qiuqiu sighed, "I really can't do anything with you. Why did I become your childhood friend in the first place?"

After saying that, Qiuqiu looked at An Qiqi, "Are you going?"

"Then let's keep her company." An Qiqi replied lightly, "After all, you invested money, so it's good to take a look."

"Thank you, Sister Qiqi, I love you!"

"Don't give me that." An Qiqi slowly got up, "So, after lunch, we'll take a photo and then support Wang's capital in the evening?"

"Alright," Qiuqiu blinked her eyes and said, "Then we'll leave tomorrow."

"Okay, you two put on makeup, I'll go downstairs." Wang Ying said with a smile, "I'll go buy some rice porridge, the food here isn't very good."

"Shall I go with you?"

"Oh, no need. You just finished exercising, you're all sweaty. Go take a shower, I'll buy it for you." Wang Ying said very diligently, "What do you want to eat?"

Five minutes later, Wang Ying returned to the room to get her room card and bag.

"Something's been weird about her lately!" Qiuqiu muttered with a frown.

"She's acting strangely." An Qiqi immediately added, "She went out last night and got into a car with a man. She was gone for almost an hour before she came back. I asked her what she was doing, and she lied to me, saying she went to buy stomach medicine."

"Oh, is that so? Downstairs?" Qiuqiu asked.

"Yes, they met downstairs."

"...Now that you mention it, I feel like something's off too." Qiuqiu stood up and whispered in An Qiqi's ear, "You know, she even brought emergency contraceptive pills in her bag. I went to her room this morning to get my eyelash curler and accidentally saw them."

"Ah??!"

"We're here for a vacation, what's she doing with that stuff?" Qiuqiu lowered her voice, "Is she dating someone? Is there even a need to sneak around at night? Is it so urgent that she can't be open about it?"

"I don't think she's dating someone." An Qiqi frowned slightly, "She's asking us to invest and organizing some kind of gathering... I feel like something's not right."

"Shh, be quiet!" Qiuqiu saw Wang Ying walking out of the inner room and immediately made a shushing gesture.

"What are you two talking about?" Wang Ying asked, holding her bag.

"You're going downstairs to buy food and you're bringing a bag?" Qiuqiu casually replied.

"Oh, I'm putting some medicine and spare change in it." Wang Ying waved her hand, "You guys wait a bit, I'll be right back."

"Hurry up, I'm starving."

"Okay." After saying that, Wang Ying pushed open the door and left.

Qiuqiu turned her head to look at An Qiqi, "She's definitely acting strange!"

"Follow her and see?" An Qiqi thought for a moment, "She might be going to see that man again."

"Let's go!" Qiuqiu acted immediately, grabbed her coat from the bed, and urged, "You peek outside and take a look."

"Okay!"

After saying that, An Qiqi tiptoed to the door and opened a crack.

In the hallway, Wang Ying arrived at the elevator door. After pressing the down button, she saw that the signal light kept indicating that the elevator was stuck on the second floor.

"Annoying!"

Wang Ying muttered and walked towards the stairwell with her phone.

An Qiqi crouched at the door and waved her hand quickly, "Come here, quick!! She's going to make a call!"

"Let's go, let's eavesdrop." Qiuqiu ran out wearing her coat, and followed An Qiqi as they tiptoed towards the stairwell.

"Cough!"

Wang Ying coughed in the stairwell, causing the sensor lights to turn on, then dialed Xue Nan's number, "Hello?"
