"Big Brother, Miss Tang is your savior, you can't treat her like this, can you? Taking a step back, even if she isn't your savior, with our principles, there's no need to drag an innocent and weak girl into this. "

"Innocent? I don't think so. They all say that flies don't bite, and eggs don't sew. If she really was that innocent, she wouldn't have gone to eat barbecue with men on the third night of work. "

Ye Xiao He then added, "Also, didn't she say she wouldn't come out? What's with the barbecue with Han Mu Yang? "

Xiao Hongfei was stunned, "That's right, didn't she say she wouldn't come out? Why would I have a barbecue with Han Mu Yang? "

"That's why she's a born liar. I think she's just trying to sell herself for a good price."

"Even if she wanted to buy at a good price, there's nothing wrong with that. Humans are of the third, sixth, and ninth ranks. She's so beautiful, there's no need for her to feel wronged. Choosing a relatively better man is her right."

Although Xiao Hongfei didn't really understand why Tang You Ran and Han Mu Yang were having a barbecue, he didn't feel that there was anything unacceptable about that.

On the other hand, Ye Xiao was different. That woman's aloof appearance made him especially loathe her.

Of course, he hated the fact that her attitude towards him and Han Muyang was polar opposites, and he was angry that Xiao Hongfei, who always followed his words, actually spoke up for her.

"Seventh Brother, when did you become so soft-hearted?" "Ye Xiao and a sneer appeared on his face." You weren't tempted by her, were you? "

Seeing that Ye Xiao's tone wasn't that good, Xiao Hongfei felt that it was strange. What is big brother trying to do? Wasn't this completely unlike him?

He knew Ye Xiao's temper and couldn't go against him, so he slowed down his tone.

"Big brother, how could I be tempted by a woman? It's just that I don't think there's a need to drag her into it. "If you think it's necessary, brother, I'll immediately release Tang You Ran's identity and anger that old brat Han Jianjun to death."

"That's not necessary, I don't want to do it. With that old rascal Han Jianjun, I believe he will soon know Tang You Ran's identity and there will be a good show to see."

After hanging up, a sneer appeared on Ye Xiao's face. Don't you like barbecue? Don't you like to peel shrimp? There's going to be something better for you later.

Ye Xiao was in a good mood as he opened the door of the study.

"Xiao He, I need to go back immediately. I'll come back in the evening to accompany you for dinner."

"What is it?" Ye Xiao felt a little strange. Every time he returned to River City, Lu Wanxin would accompany him every step of the way. What was going on today?

"I'm not sure either. Mom wants me to go back quickly."

Since she said that, Ye Xiao naturally would not stop her, "I'll get someone to send you off."

"No need, I'll drive myself." With that, Lu Wan Xin stood on her tiptoes and kissed Ye Xiao He on the cheek, "Xiao He, rest well. I'll be back in a while."

After leaving Ye Xiao's house, Lu Wanxin sped up her car, her expression grave.

She had just lied to Ye Xiao. The one who called her was not her mother, but Qiao Xiaomeng.

Qiao Xiaomeng nervously told her on the phone to go home immediately. She had something important to tell her.

During this year, she spent most of her time with Ye Xiao. It was not easy for him to get back to her. Qiao Xiaomeng definitely would not disturb her relationship with Ye Xiao at this time. However, what was going on?

Thinking that the Qiao family villa was in sight, Lu Wan stopped the car and hurriedly entered the villa with her bag.

Qiao Xiaomeng was anxiously looking around on the second floor. Seeing Lu Wanxin's car drive over, she immediately came down to greet him.

"What happened?"

"Follow me." Qiao Xiaomeng quickly pulled Lu Wan Xin into her room. After closing the door, she took out her phone and handed it to Lu Wanxin, "Look at this."

Lu Xiaomeng took the phone and looked at it, her face filled with displeasure. "You're looking for me to see this?"

"Yeah."

"I've seen this news before. It was Han Mu Yang who found a woman, what's the big deal?" He and I have no relation since long ago, and I have no relation to anyone he looks for. " Lu Wan Xin didn't mind.

"It's not just that. Wan Xin, take a closer look at this woman. Do you feel that she's a bit familiar?"

These words made Lu Wan Xin carefully look at the picture on her phone, "It seems a little familiar, but I just can't recall who it looks like."

"Qiao Yuting, don't you think this woman looks like Qiao Yuting?"

After she reminded Lu Wan of it, she remembered, "It does look a little like Qiao Yuting."

"Wan Xin, I feel that things are not so simple. Tell me, why do you think Han Mu Yang would want to find a woman like Qiao Yuting to make a scandal?"

"I think it's just a coincidence?"

"I don't think so. As you know, I have been worried about Qiao Yuting."

"What's there to worry about? You have already been dead for such a long time, why are you still bringing her up? "

"As the saying goes, if you want to see someone alive, you want to see their corpse. Everyone says that Qiao Yuting is dead, but no one has ever seen her corpse."

"She fell into the sea and died. Her body might have already been eaten by the fish. How could you see her corpse?" Lu Wan was getting impatient.

"I'm really worried. I don't know why, but I've been having nightmares recently. Wan Xin, do you want someone to check on this woman?"

Seeing her suspicious look, Lu Wan became impatient, "If you want to check, then go and check. I have to go back and accompany Xiao He."

At seven in the evening, Tang You Ran punctually went to work at the Imperial Court as usual. When she entered the corridor of the locker room, she met Mommy Rose. She enthusiastically greeted Tang You Ran. "Here it comes!"

Tang You Ran smiled back at her and exchanged a few pleasantries before heading to his dressing room.

"Rose didn't leave, but followed her into the locker room and even closed the door behind her." Rest easy, I have something to talk to you about. "

Tang You Ran had already guessed what she was going to say. She didn't say a word. She just stared at the rose quietly.

Rose sighed, "Just now Director Yang had someone inform you that you don't need to appear on stage for tonight's performance, we'll talk about it later."

Tang You Ran nodded. "I understand."

"You Ran, don't have any burdens," Rose used the word carefully, "What Director Yang means is that you're also tired, so you should rest first, and come to the venue every day to take care of the scenery. He'll pay you accordingly."

Tang You Ran smiled wryly. It sounded as if he cared about her.

However, to someone who worked at a nightclub, her salary was akin to a drop in the bucket. If she stopped working, what could she do to repay her debts?

Those were all usury loans that she had no other way to borrow from. If she didn't pay them back, then the profits were not a small amount.

Rose couldn't bear to see her bitter smile: "I know about your situation. Don't worry, it will only be temporary."

After Rose left, Tang You Ran was left alone in the locker room in a daze. It had been a long time since he had such a leisurely time. He felt a little uncomfortable.

Tang You Ran took out his cell phone and started to play games in order to kill time.

After playing for only a short while, he suddenly heard heavy footsteps coming from the corridor, accompanied by the sound of Mommy Rose.

"Young Master Xu, please go to the box for a while. I'll arrange the best girl for you!"

"This Young Master wants Tang You Ran to accompany him today." An arrogant man's voice.

"You Ran won't be here tonight." Mommy smiled.

"Not here? Are you kidding me? "I only came here because I found out about it." Young Master Xu sneered.

"She came here earlier, but something happened and she left." Mommy explained.

"Is that so? "We'll talk about it after I check it out!" With that, the door was kicked open from the outside. Tang You Ran raised his head and saw the Imperial Court's regular customer, Young Master Xu, standing at the entrance. A few bodyguards followed behind him.

"Old Madam, didn't you say that Tang You Ran wasn't present? Who is this? " She saw Tang You Ran and Young Master Xu turn to question her.

"You Ran, didn't you leave already? When did you get back? " Mommy gave Tang a look.

Tang You Ran understood. "I have something that fell to the ground. I'll leave once I come back for it."

"Since you're back, don't go. Come with me to the room to play. I'll introduce someone to you." Young Master Xu had a pretty good attitude towards Tang You Ran.

"I'm sorry, but I have something to do tonight. I'll have to wait for another day!" Tang You Ran declined.

"That's right, Young Master Xu. You Ran is not feeling well today. Let her rest for a few days and recover her energy to accompany you, right?" Mommy chimed in.

"I don't want you to do anything else, but to chat with us. What's the rush?" Young Master Xu was a little unhappy as he turned to glare at Mommy.

"Old Madam, don't f * cking be so shameless. I won't give you any face, but Qiang-ge isn't as easy to talk to as me. If you anger him, then don't even think about it."

Hearing the two words' Brother Qiang ', Mommy's face stiffened. In the end she conceded, "You Ran, you should go and chat with them."

He urged Young Master Xu again, "Young Master Xu, we don't feel well. Don't drink from her. Also, she won't appear."

"Got it!" "En!" Young Master Xu impatiently responded as he led the way into the private room. Tang You Ran had just raised her foot when Rose pulled her back, "You Ran, this Brother Qiang is a fierce character. Be careful and follow him."

It was very noisy in the room. A few ladies were dancing on the round stage, while a few men were sitting on the large sofa.

Xu Shaoqiang walked to the side of a man in the middle and said ingratiatingly, "Brother Qiang! Look who I brought. "

The one called Brother Qiang lifted his eyelids and asked in a weird tone, "Is it really that difficult to invite Miss Tang?"

Tang You Ran smiled at Brother Qiang. "Brother Qiang, it's our first time meeting you. Please take care of me!"

"Of course I have to take care of such a beautiful woman." Brother Qiang dragged out his words, and one of the Miss who was sitting beside him immediately got up to make room for Tang You Ran.

Tang You Ran sat down next to Brother Qiang and poured him a glass of wine. Brother Qiang kept his eyes on her as he poured. Tang You Ran poured a glass of wine and offered it to him.

Big Brother Qiang didn't answer, but stared at Tang You Ran with a smile that didn't reach his eyes.

"Tang You Ran is just a normal person. How can he be praised like Qiang-ge?" The smile on Tang You Ran's face was as sweet as ever.

"He can live up to his expectations. I've heard about Miss Tang's many accomplishments. I heard that she dances well and has a good zither. I also heard that Miss Tang's alcohol tolerance is also top-notch." It meant letting her drink.

"Qiang-ge, Miss Tang hasn't been feeling well lately, so you can't drink alcohol." Young Master Xu tried to smooth things over.

"Can't drink? "Then let's have a dance. What do you think, Miss Tang?" It sounded like a request for advice, but it was already an order.

Tang You Ran chuckled. "Tang You Ran doesn't dare disobey Brother Qiang's orders, but …"

"Isn't it just about money? Name your price! " Qiang-ge sneered, "I heard that Miss Tang wants ten million for a cup of wine. Although Qiang-ge can't compare to Ye Chonglou and Han Sanlang, this bit of money is still worth it."

These words didn't sound right, but Tang You Ran was on his guard. She had heard of this' Brother Qiang 'before.

She was also a ruthless person, and she forced a smile when she heard that drug traffickers committed murder and arson, doing everything in their power.

"Brother Qiang, you've misunderstood. It's Tang You Ran's honor to dance for you. It's just that I'm not feeling well today. If I don't dance well, you won't be offended."

"Then what are we waiting for?" Qiang-ge waved his hand, and the music immediately stopped. The young lady on the round stage immediately left without a trace.

Tang You Ran stood up. "Brother Qiang, please wait. I'll go change clothes first."

"There's no need to change, just jump. You won't need to wear clothes later anyway!"

"What?" Tang You Ran was stunned.
