Rong Qi woke up the next day around noon, Sheng Jian was with her, having a meal and telling her, “There’s an auction coming up, you should come with me.”

“What’s being auctioned?” Rong Qi asked. If it wasn’t anything special, she wasn’t very interested.

“A Rough Jadeite Auction. I’ll take you somewhere to open your eyes,” said Sheng Jian.

“Oh? Can I get rich overnight then?” Rong Qi asked.

Sheng Jian looked at Rong Qi and laughed, “Such a young age and already so fond of money.”

Rong Qi didn’t feel too bored having Sheng Jian around. He had a lot to say and often brought up Chu Jing in their conversations.

Suddenly, Rong Qi seemed to remember something and said, “Can I borrow your phone for a moment? I want to look for a photo.”

“Which one?” Sheng Jian asked.

“The one of her in the lab,” Rong Qi said.

Sheng Jian took out his phone, found the photo, and handed it to Rong Qi.

Rong Qi zoomed in, examining it closely. She asked, “Where was the lab where you took the photo?”

“Capital University.”

‘I knew it!’ Rong Qi thought. Her expression tensed slightly and asked, “What’s her relation to Capital University?”

Sheng Jian touched his nose, looking away, and said, “I’m not sure about that. I’ve only been in the lab two or three times when your mom was in a good mood. Anyway, she was working on some research. I’m just a rough man, I don’t understand these things.”

Rong Qi continued staring at Sheng Jian silently, making him uncomfortable. She handed back the phone and called Ding Ding in front of Sheng Jian and requested, “Help me look up someone, Chu Jing. I want all her information.”

Sheng Jian pretended to be composed as he sipped his tea.

Around 5 p.m., Xu Yi took Rong Qi to the agreed-upon restaurant in Weiyang Square. Sheng Jian shamelessly insisted on joining them for the meal.

By nearly 6 p.m., Weiyang Square was alive with colorful lights. The night was dark, but the square and the skyscrapers’ neon lights were brilliantly bright, with children’s glowing balloons adding to the festive atmosphere.

Rong Qi wrapped herself in her coat and headed to the hot pot restaurant where they agreed to meet.

Han Ning and the others had already ordered the dishes and were seated inside. When they saw Rong Qi arrive, they immediately stood up and waved her over. They chose not to find a private room, opting instead to sit in the bustling main hall for a better atmosphere.

Rong Qi and Sheng Jian walked in.

Huang Hao obsequiously pulled out a chair for Rong Qi and said, “Rong Qi, come, sit. We’ve been waiting just for you. Whatever you want to eat, it goes straight into the pot.”

Rong Qi took her seat and the table fell silent for a moment.

Lu Qi, fiddling with her chopsticks, seemed awkward and said, “Seven… I mean… It’s weird to call you Ms. Seven.”

Rong Qi’s lips curled up slightly and said, “If you don’t mind, you can call me Qiqi.”

Han Ning pondered for a moment and said, “Let’s stick with Bro. Qiqi sounds like a parrot’s name.”

Huang Hao chuckled, “Qiqi does sound like the name of a parrot.”

Rong Qi’s mouth twitched, but she let it go.

Han Ning and the others had ordered a dual-sided pot to accommodate the two ladies at the table. One side was a spicy red broth and the other was a fresh mushroom soup.

Naturally, Rong Qi could only eat from the mushroom soup side. However, the aroma of the spicy broth kept tempting her, almost luring her taste buds away.

Sheng Jian watched Rong Qi struggle and pitied her. He picked up a slice of beef from the spicy broth and wafted it under her nose. He teased, “Smell this. Isn’t it nice?”

Rong Qi turned to look at Sheng Jian and asked, “Do you have a problem?”

Sheng Jian grinned, flaunting the slice of beef before her and savoring it with apparent relish.

Rong Qi’s eyes grew dark and dangerous as she pulled out her phone to type one-handedly, [Shen, Sheng Jian is bullying me..]
