Zuo Qing led her into the elevator. The two receptionists at the front desk saw Zuo Qing holding Mu Ling’s hand and their mouths were wide open in surprise. After the elevator door closed, they immediately started gossiping.

“See that? Master Qing is actually holding that girl’s hand!”

“I’m not blind, of course I saw! I’ve never seen a woman by master Qing’s side in all these years. Who do you think that girl is?”

“Who knows? but she must have a powerful background. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have been able to get in touch with master Qing.”

“That’s right. I’m so envious. How good would it be if I could stand beside master Qing? I would die without regrets!”

“I’m not as greedy as you. I only ask for master Qing to look at me.”

“Look at you, can’t you have a little more ambition!”

..

Mu Ling followed Zuo Qing to the seventh floor and entered a VIP room.

The light in the private room was very dim, and the smell of smoke and alcohol permeated the air. A group of people stood in the private room. A man with a cigar in his mouth was sitting on the sofa with his legs crossed. His name was Shao Shijie, Zuo Qing’s good friend. He was a big boss who worked in both the black and white circles. He was also a very famous Playboy in Jing city.

When Shao Shijie saw Zuo Qing enter, he waved at him, “Ah Qing, why did you only come now?”

Zuo Qing didn’t answer him, but first arranged for Mu Ling to sit on a single sofa in the corner. When Mu Ling sat down, he leaned over her and pinched her delicate chin with his fingers, making her look at him, then said seriously, “”If you’re scared, you can leave anytime.”

Mu Ling nodded her head obediently. She wanted to see what this man was up to.

“Good girl.” Zuo Qing let go of her and ruffled her hair. Then, he turned around and walked toward Shao Shijie.

A powerful aura burst forth. Shao Shijie hurriedly moved to the side, and Zuo Qing sat over.

Shao Shijie then looked at Mu Ling, who was in the corner. The light was too dim, so he couldn’t see the girl’s appearance clearly. But from her temperament, she must be a beauty! His gossipy heart was immediately hooked, and he teased, “”Oh, Ah Qing, when did you have a woman?”

From what he could remember, this good friend of his had never had a woman by his side.

“Don’t ask what you shouldn’t ask,” said Zuo Qing coldly.

Shao Shijie: ” you’re being too distant with your words. I’m just concerned about you. I’ve been looking forward to you getting rid of your virginity every day. You have to help me fulfill my best friend’s wish!”

Zuo Qing’s eyes were cold as he threatened, “”Do you think I’m too good-tempered? Or do you think you’ve lived too long?”

“I’m just concerned about you.” Shao Shijie shrunk his neck.

“No need!” Zuo Qing replied.

“Can you not be so distant? I just want to get first-hand information. After all, it’s big news for a woman to appear by master Qing’s side! As your best friend, I should be the first to know!” Shao Shijie said with a smile. His face was full of anticipation for a story.

Zuo Qing frowned and did not respond.

Shao Shijie continued to ask,”to be honest, Ah Qing, how did you suddenly open your aperture? I thought you’ve never been interested in women? Why was he so proactive this time? Tell me the truth, are you looking for something new, or are you trying to satisfy your physiological needs?”

How noisy! Shao Shijie was good in every way, but he was too talkative!

Zuo Qing took the cigar from his hand and threw it into the glass, warning him, “”You’re too noisy, shut up!”

Shao Shijie immediately cowered. He didn’t dare to provoke him, unless he was tired of living …

“Alright, alright, alright. I won’t ask anymore, alright? let’s get down to business first.” He clapped his hands.

A moment later, the two men in black dragged a man covered in blood out of the bathroom and threw him in front of Zuo Qing and the other man.

The man fell to the ground and raised his head with difficulty. When he saw the person in front of him clearly, he began to tremble.”Qing, master Qing.”

Zuo Qing sneered, his tone cold.”Heh, you’ve hidden well!”

The man crawled in front of Zuo Qing and begged, ” master Qing, please let me go. I have old and young people to take care of. My whole family depends on me to support them. Please let me go this time. I beg you, master Qing …”

Zuo Qing looked at him as if he was a corpse and slowly said, “”Your life is not worth a single cent.”

Hearing this, the man’s face turned pale in an instant, and he seemed to be shrouded in the aura of death.

Zuo Qing: ” I’ll give you one chance, and this is the only time. Who sent you to assassinate me? ”

It turned out that this man had also participated in the pursuit of Zuo Qing on the ship that night.
