After returning from the police station, Qin Yanbei has been in a low mood.

Su Yelai was in a good mood. The public opinion on the Internet had settled down with the arrest of Deng Jiuyue.

The water came out.

With so much evidence before our eyes, all sensible people have withdrawn from the attack on her and the company. Only a few clowns are still jumping around, coming up with conspiracy theories with their wild imaginations.

Su Yelai didn't care at all. It was just right that she could make fun of these people.

The law does not hold everyone responsible, and it is even more difficult for businessmen to hold a large group accountable.

However, it is not easy to completely ignore the matter. At least a warning should be given that her company, Su Yelai, is not allowed to spread rumors at will.

"These people who are still jumping up and down, collect evidence and go to court."

Whether it is detention or compensation, it is a lesson to be learned.

Lawyer Chen asked, "Mr. Su, are you going to take Deng Jiyue's case?" He thought it would be better not to take it over, and just deal with the contract trap case and withdraw. However, he had to ask Su Yelai to see what arrangements she had.

"Don't interfere." Su Yelai and Lawyer Chen agreed with each other. Their law firm had only been open for a short time, and reputation was very important. Deng Jiuyue's case was a thankless task.

"Mr. Su, Mr. Su, people on the Internet are praising you, and some are spontaneously recommending our company's products." Zhou Wenying ran in excitedly.

"Yeah." Su Yelai nodded with a smile.

This is just a warm-up for the initial stage of popularity. The ground promotion activities will begin later. Some partner activities and campus activities are also being carried out in full swing.

Some projects that have been prepared for a long time are already on track.

These things should be settled before the Chinese Valentine's Day so that you can travel with peace of mind.

Su Yelai was looking forward to this trip. She had never celebrated Chinese Valentine's Day, nor had she been on vacation with Qin Yanbei. The last time she came to visit Mr. Mo, she thought he was on a business trip, so she didn't make any preparations.

This time, she bought a few beautiful floral dresses, and thinking that she hadn't had her hair done for a long time, she asked Tony at the barber shop to design her hairstyle.

Tony from the barbershop was as enthusiastic as ever: "Sister, you are so beautiful. Your hair is perfect for a long curl."

Su Yelai took a look at the chest-length hair, thought for a while and said, "Curl the part below the ears, and make it longer than the shoulders."

"Okay, I'll give you a nice pear-shaped curl. This hairstyle is suitable for dyeing. We have a new color that is very beautiful and very suitable for you." Tony gestured at Su Yelai's hair in front of the mirror and made a skillful sales pitch.

Su Yelai agreed very kindly: "Bring it here and let me see." She was thinking of dyeing it, but she had not decided which color would be better.

Flax brown is the most common color. Su Yelai has considered it, but she wants to try a new hair color that can show her youthful vitality.

She has been feeling old-fashioned all these years, but she is only 23 years old, at the prime of her youth and beauty.

When the color sample was handed over, Su Yelai nodded without saying a word: "Dye this one."

By the time I finished my hair, beauty and manicure, it was already dark.

She glanced at her cell phone. It was seven o'clock in the evening and her stomach was rumbling. She couldn't wait to send a message to Qin Yanbei, asking him where he was and asking him out for dinner.

"Have you finished your manicure?" Qin Yanbei asked on WeChat.

"Well, I'm hungry and want to eat some fisherman's seafood."

"Okay, I'll pick you up." Qin Yanbei replied quickly, but Su Yelai felt uncomfortable.

I went out the whole day today and deliberately didn't bring Zhou Wenying with me. In fact, I really hoped that Qin Yanbei would take the initiative to accompany her.

It took five hours to do my hair. During that time I took several photos for him, but he didn't respond.

It was not until I went for a beauty treatment that she replied, "Very beautiful," and nothing else.

"I'm alone in the mall and feel a little bored." Su Yelai hinted.

But Qin Yanbei just hummed.

Su Yelai looked at the dialog box on her phone several times, and the word "hmm" was about to make a hole in her eyes.

Qin Yanbei sent another message right after that: "I still have some things to deal with, I'll come to you later."

"Okay." Su Yelai was unhappy, but she didn't ask further questions. After she finished her facial, she went into a nail salon. At this time, Qin Yanbei sent a message asking, "Are you done?"

"I'm doing a manicure. Have you dealt with things over there?"

"Ah."

Su Yelaideng waited for a while, but he didn't come over.

He didn't say anything until his manicure was done.

Although he came to pick her up for dinner now, he always seemed very cold and didn't care at all whether her manicure was beautiful or not.

The car arrived quickly and the two met in less than ten minutes.

Su Yelai dressed up specially today. Because she put so much thought into it, she really wanted to be noticed, but Qin Yanbei didn't even look at her, let alone praise her.

For a moment, there was silence in the car.

Su Yelai didn't say anything, and Qin Yanbei didn't say anything either. The two of them just went straight to the fisherman's house.

This restaurant is a night food stall. The interior has already been full of people, and there are barely a few tables left under the open-air tent outside.

The area here is very large, about the size of a football field, and it is located on the seaside, so you can hear the sound of waves hitting the walls.

Eating seafood here has a good and lively atmosphere.

The waiter came over with the menu to take the order.

Su Yelai casually reported a long list.

"Are you eating for two?" the waiter asked while copying the food with his hands.

"Ah."

"If two people eat, six or seven are enough. Too many are too much to finish."

"It's okay." Su Yelai knew that she couldn't finish it, but she always wanted to vent her dissatisfaction.

She had never been in a serious relationship before, so she didn't know how other couples got along with each other? Was she also so silent?

It obviously wasn't like this before.

She was annoyed by Qin Yanbei's mood swings, but she didn't want to argue about it, but she wouldn't hold it in either.

Qin Yanbei seemed to have noticed her unhappiness. When he looked up, he saw the conspicuous gray-pink hair and the cold and distant eyes.

"I'm sorry, I was busy today and couldn't accompany you."

Su Yelai sneered: "What's the matter? Deng Jiyue's matter?"

She took Qin Yanbei's childhood sweetheart to the police station. Was she feeling sorry for him?

Qin Yanbei was silent for a moment, which Su Yelai thought was tantamount to consent.

This tacit agreement disappointed Su Yelai. She had just said it casually and thought he would deny it. This was more painful than his coldness towards her.

"You eat, I'm full." Su Yelai stood up suddenly, her good mood today had been completely worn out.

Su Yelai didn't need a man, she could live well on her own. She just sometimes yearned for warmth, the sense of security he gave her, and the affection of a family member.

She felt that she was very ridiculous now. Deng Jiuyue had no connection with her originally, and she was involved because of Qin Yanbei. Today she was happy because she had brought Deng Jiuyue down, and she dressed up carefully because she wanted to give Qin Yanbei a brand new look.

It was rare for her to have such a girlish thought, but she was severely poured cold water.

"Don't go, stay with me." Qin Yanbei grabbed her wrist, his voice was very hoarse and there was a pleading tone in his voice.

For a moment, Su Yelai had an illusion that he seemed to have cried.

"You can go find Deng Jiuyue and think about how to get it out." Su Yelai's heart softened, but he still spoke tough.

"I won't save her. It's just that there is something else going on with the funds. I originally wanted to persuade her to give out the people behind it, but she is stubborn and refuses to change her mind."

Liu Ye found out that there was something wrong with Zhai Min, but he couldn't get any evidence. The people behind him were not from within the country and had strong anti-reconnaissance capabilities, so their whereabouts were difficult to determine.

This time, his high-profile support for Deng Jiuyue to start a company was suspicious. After investigation, it was found that the source of this investment was strange and it should be some stolen money, but there was no way to directly prove that it belonged to Zhai Min.

By doing this, Zhai Min was openly selling stolen goods and wanted to launder the proceeds through Deng Jiuyue's company.

If Deng Jiuyue took responsibility for these things, Zhai Min would most likely be able to get away with it.

Zhai Min is his cousin, and the two have a close relationship. He used to go to his house with Deng Zening to play video games from time to time.

There was a pond behind his house, and they often went there to catch frogs.

But when we grew up, we didn’t interact as much.

He was quite surprised to receive the order from Sixth Master to close the investigation. Zhai Min has always been low-key and cautious.

But today, I realized from Deng Jiuyue's words that Deng Zening's death was also related to him.

No wonder there were no clues at the time.

Zhai Min is Deng Zening's godfather, and the relationship between the two has always been like that of real father and son. When he learned that Deng Zening had died, Zhai Min was so sad that he didn't eat for three days and stayed at his grave for several days.

Qin Yanbei felt ashamed of himself for this kind of friendship.

How could anyone have imagined that he was the one who obtained the information and set a trap in advance where they were going to act.

Whether it was Deng Zening or him, they were both targets that Zhai Min wanted to kill.

"The person behind the scenes? Isn't it her godfather?" Su Yelai asked subconsciously. Deng Jiuyue showed off in front of her last time and said that the money was given by her godfather.

"Yes, but it didn't pass directly through his hands."

This is how cunning Zhai Min is. Even if you suspect him, you can't find any evidence.

If he insists that the money was negotiated by Deng Jiuyue and others and has nothing to do with him, then there is really nothing we can do to him.

Su Yelai calmed down, and she quickly realized something: "So, you have been investigating this for a long time?"

"Ah."

"Then you should know that I have investigated."

"Ah."

"The people who are obstructing my investigation are not your people, right?"

"This matter is dangerous and may cost lives. I'm afraid you'll be targeted."

Qin Yanbei's explanation was tantamount to admission.

Su Yelai felt complicated and was not very grateful for these words.

Qin Yanbei never told her.

Although she knew that this was a mission and she couldn't tell him in advance, on the other hand, she felt that even if she wasn't told the whole story, she could at least give her a hint. She had spent 30 million to investigate Deng Jiuyue's investors, and she could have saved the money.

"Have I affected your plans?" Su Yelai asked after a pause.

It seemed that they were still investigating and were not in a hurry to close the net.

"No, it just happened that I had a legitimate reason. Your anonymous report just served as leverage."

Su Yele made a sound and stopped talking.

"The food is here, please enjoy." The waiter saw from a distance that the two were arguing, one was about to leave, and the other was holding him tightly, so he kept an eye on them.

This table has ordered a lot of dishes and hasn't paid yet. I have to be ready to sprint 100 meters to catch up with them and ask for the bill.

Look, as soon as the dishes on this table are ready, I’ll bring them up to take a look.

Seeing Su Yelai sitting down again, the waiter poured vinegar and soy sauce attentively, muttering: "One step back, the world will be broader."

There was the sea next to them, and the night sky in autumn was indeed vast. Su Yelai looked at the waiter's nervous look and suddenly laughed: "Don't worry, we will pay the bill."

Even if you don't eat, you'll still pay the bill.

"Okay." The waiter went down with a bamboo basket carrying the dishes, smiling.

"I remember you said last time that Deng Jiyue's godfather is your cousin. Can you do that to your relatives?"

Qin Yanbei sneered: "He attacked his relatives without mercy."

Su Yelai nodded. That was right. Deng Jiuyue was his goddaughter, but when it came to taking the blame, he would show no mercy.

But Qin Yanbei mentioned five years ago: "The time you saved me, Deng Zening died, and it was my cousin who caused all this."

Su Yelai was picking up a piece of fish roe and putting it into her mouth when she stopped when she heard the sound.

She knew that Deng Zening was Deng Jiuyue's brother, and Deng Zening was also that man's godson.

He was really cruel and merciless. He spared no one, including his cousin, godson and goddaughter.

Recalling the first time we met at the hotel, his words of apology on behalf of Deng Jiuyue are still ringing in my ears. At that time, I just thought that he was a protective person and was very good to his goddaughter.

It turns out that they are all disguised and can give you a fatal blow at any time.

It's terrible.

After dinner, the two of them walked along the beach. Qin Yanbei tried to hold Su Yelai's hand, but was shaken off.

Qin Yanbei turned his head to look at Su Yelai. Under the night light, her pink hair was particularly soft and beautiful, echoing her pink lips, making her look charming and lovely.

This reduced his depression today by half.

"Did I do something wrong?" He tried to pull her again.

"Have you ever looked me straight in the eye today?"

"I've been watching you."

"Then tell me, what color are my manicures?" Su Yelai put her hands behind her back, looking like she would ignore him if he guessed wrong.

"Orange." Qin Yanbei smiled helplessly.

"So, what pattern?"

“It’s a kitten.”

Su Yelai was satisfied and put her hand back in front of her. Qin Yanbei quickly pulled it over to admire it: "It looks very nice and cute."

Seeing that Su Yelai's expression had relaxed, he took her hand and interlocked their fingers.

Su Yelai snorted and walked slowly along with him.

"You like cats?"

"Ah."

"Why?"

"Because her claws are very sharp. If you dare to annoy her, she will stretch out her claws and scratch you."

Qin Yanbei...

He looked down at her hands and chuckled, "I don't dare."
