The four of them got into the car and went straight to the venue of the banquet.

  Along the way, Ye Luo, who was seated in the passenger seat holding Boss in his arms stared at the cat. The cat stared back at him.

  Qin Shu was thinking about what would happen at the banquet. The assassin was here to assassinate President He. If they saw Fu Tingyu, would they want to make a move on him as well?

  Just as she was deep in thought, a pair of silver-rimmed glasses appeared on the bridge of her nose.

  After Fu Tingyu helped her put on the glasses, he retracted his hand.

  Qin Shu turned her head to look at the man in confusion. “Why do I have to wear glasses?”


  Fu Tingyu said, “Glasses suit you.”


  Qin Shu propped up the glasses on her nose doubtfully and looked at the rearview mirror in front of her. Looking at herself in the glasses, she felt that she looked more refined and elegant.

  The corners of her lips curled up. The glasses looked pretty good.

  The car stopped at the entrance of the hotel and Shi Yan opened the car door.

  After Fu Tingyu got out of the car, he stood by the car door and stretched out his hand. Qin Shu stretched out her hand and put it on the back of his hand and got out of the car.

  After Shi Yan handed over the invitation, the group walked into the banquet hall.

  Ye Luo didn’t enter the banquet hall because he was carrying Boss. Instead, he waited outside.

  Most of the guests had arrived in the banquet hall by then.

  Qin Shu followed behind Fu Tingyu. She looked around as they walked in. There were several bodyguards and they all looked quite strong.

  The assassin was able to succeed even under such tight security. This meant that the assassin who was ranked in the top ten was ranked so highly for a reason.

  Fu Tingyu brought Qin Shu all the way to where the food was. He glanced at the various delicacies and desserts on the table and turned to look at her. He asked in a low voice, “What would you like to eat?”


  Qin Shu retracted her gaze and looked at the man. “Bro, can I ask you a question?”


  Before they came out, they had agreed that she would come as Fu Tingyan, so she had to call Fu Tingyu ‘Brother’.

  This was the first time Fu Tingyu hearing a girl call him Bro. The feeling was completely different from when his younger brother called him ‘Brother’. It could be said that it was very seductive.

  “Go ahead.”


  Qin Shu asked in a low voice, “What’s the point of this banquet?”


  Fu Tingyu’s answer was concise and comprehensive. “To build connections.”


  Qin Shu nodded thoughtfully. “Oh.”


  Fu Tingyu held her hand and walked to an empty corner. It was also a relatively remote corner.

  “You sit here and don’t move. I’ll help you get some food.”


  Qin Shu glanced around. There was no one around and it was quite cold. She grinned at him, her two small canine teeth looked especially obvious.

  Fu Tingyu’s eyes darkened when he saw the girl’s two small canine teeth. He immediately turned around and went to get her some food.

  After Fu Tingyu left, Qin Shu put down her backpack, unzipped it, and took out her laptop. She put it on her lap and opened it.

  She looked at the computer screen, moved the cursor with her fingers, and clicked on the surveillance footage. She started watching the cameras inside the banquet hall.

  After watching two videos, she didn’t continue because it would take too much time.

  The assassin’s whereabouts were a mystery. Even the employer of the assassin didn’t know when he would make his move.

  She glanced at the dignitaries in the banquet hall who were chatting and laughing. She didn’t know what kind of shocking events would happen next.

  President He hadn’t come out yet, and the assassin might still be in hiding.

  She suddenly thought of Boss.

  Qin Shu looked up at the food area. Seeing that the man was still choosing food, she put her laptop into her backpack, stood up, and walked out of the banquet hall.

  She quickened her pace and headed to the place where Ye Luo was waiting for them. However, she found no sign of Ye Luo or Boss next to the flower beds.

  She looked around the flower beds for a while, and only then did she see Ye Luo walking over from not far away. However, there was no sign of Boss in his arms.
