Six o'clock in the afternoon. Deng Kaiwen and Yan Jien were preparing to head to East City Food Court when they encountered a client right after they went downstairs. This client was there to sign a contract, which delayed their departure time significantly. 0
 
By the time Deng Kaiwen and Yan Jien arrived at Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion, it was already past six forty. It was peak dining time. The Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion was bustling with noise and thriving business. Even without activating his sense of smell, Yan Jien could detect various mixed and strange odors. 0
 
"Brother Deng, this place is quite busy!" Yan Jien remarked. 0
 
"Yeah, the food here tastes great and the prices are reasonable, so it's packed with customers every day!" Deng Kaiwen explained. 0
 
"Then if you’ve booked the whole place today, won’t that cost a lot of money?" Yan Jien asked. 0
 
"Not really. I reserved a private room at Joy Pavilion, which can accommodate two tables. I invited over twenty friends, plus my relatives, so it’s just over thirty people in total. It’s not that much!" Deng Kaiwen replied. 0
 
"I see," Yan Jien said, understanding. 0
 
"Let’s go up," Deng Kaiwen suggested. 0
 
"Okay," Yan Jien nodded. 0
 
The two then crossed the lobby and headed to the third floor's Joy Pavilion private room. 0
 
"Wife, happy birthday!" Deng Kaiwen exclaimed as he entered the room. 0
 
"Old Deng, you finally made it!" Zhou Yanping greeted him warmly. 0
 
"Come, let me introduce you. This is my colleague, Yan Jien!" Deng Kaiwen introduced. 0
 
"Hello!" Zhou Yanping smiled. 0
 
"Hello, sister-in-law!" Yan Jien said politely. 0
 
"Xiao Yan, this is my wife, Zhou Yanping!" Deng Kaiwen introduced again. 0
 
"Sister-in-law is really beautiful!" Yan Jien complimented. 0
 
"You’re quite the charmer, Xiao Yan!" Zhou Yanping laughed joyfully. 0
 
"Come, come! Let me introduce you to my friends!" Zhou Yanping said enthusiastically. 0
 
"This is Li Yanqiu from Xiufeng Squad..." Zhou Yanping pointed to a beautiful woman but suddenly froze. 0
 
Because Zhou Yanping remembered something! Yesterday, her cousin Wu Xiaoli called her and mentioned she had introduced a match for her husband and wanted Yan Jien and Li Yanqiu to meet tomorrow night! At that time, Zhou Yanping agreed and even told Deng Kaiwen about it! 0
 
Deng Kaiwen thought it was a good thing and encouraged Zhou Yanping to set up a match between Yan Jien and Li Yanqiu! However, this morning, Deng Kaiwen informed Zhou Yanping that he had invited Yan Jien over for dinner tonight to celebrate her birthday! 0
 
 
In this way, didn't Yan Jien and Li Yanqiu's blind date fall through? 0
So, Zhou Yanping is feeling very awkward right now! 0
“Strict Teacher, what are you doing here?” Li Yanqiu asked in surprise. 0
“I came to celebrate Brother Deng's wife's birthday!” Yan Jien explained. 0
“You know Yanping?” Li Yanqiu was even more surprised. 0
“I don't know her; I'm a colleague of Brother Deng,” Yan Jien shook his head. 0
“You guys…” Li Yanqiu looked at Deng Kaiwen and Zhou Yanping. 0
“Yan Qiu, what a coincidence!” Deng Kaiwen chuckled awkwardly. 0
“Yeah, what a coincidence!” Zhou Yanping echoed. 0
“Brother Deng, are you hiding something from me?” Yan Jien frowned. 0
“No… nothing!” Deng Kaiwen quickly shook his head. 0
“Right, right, nothing!” Zhou Yanping agreed. 0
“Alright.” Yan Jien did not press further. 0
“Come on, everyone sit down!” Zhou Yanping invited. 0
“Right, right, let's all sit down and talk!” Deng Kaiwen added. 0
Soon, everyone found their seats and sat down. 0
“Brother Deng, what's going on? Didn't you say you would introduce me to a girlfriend?” Yan Jien quietly questioned Deng Kaiwen. 0
“Xiao Yan, I…” Deng Kaiwen felt embarrassed. 0
“Brother Deng, you aren't lying to me, are you?” Yan Jien asked skeptically. 0
“How could I lie to you? I really wanted to introduce a girlfriend to you; it's just…” Deng Kaiwen hesitated. 0
“Just what?” Yan Jien pressed on. 0
“Just… I didn't expect that you already knew Li Yanqiu!” Deng Kaiwen forced a smile. 0
“So you mean you originally wanted me to go on a blind date with Li Yanqiu!?” Yan Jien was astonished. 0
“Yeah.” Deng Kaiwen nodded. 0
“Then why did you invite me to your birthday party?” Yan Jien glared at him. 0
“It was just a coincidence!” Deng Kaiwen said helplessly. 0
“Sigh!” Yan Jien sighed. 0
“Xiao Yan, don't worry; I think Yan Qiu is quite pretty. If you're interested in her, just go for it!” Deng Kaiwen encouraged him. 0
“Brother Deng, you don't understand!” Yan Jien shook his head. 0
“How do I not understand? I'm a man too; I can tell that you like Yan Qiu!” Deng Kaiwen said confidently. 0
 
 
"I..." Yan Jien was at a loss for words. 0
"Stop pretending. I noticed that ever since you entered the private room, your gaze has been mostly on Yan Qiu!" Deng Kaiwen laughed. 0
"Was I that obvious?" Yan Jien was astonished. 0
"Of course it was obvious. If you don't believe me, just take a look around; how many women here aren't stealing glances at you?" Deng Kaiwen teased. 0
Upon hearing this, Yan Jien scanned the room. 0
Sure enough, several women present were sneaking glances at Yan Jien! 0
This made Yan Jien a bit embarrassed! 0
"How about that? I wasn't lying to you, was I?" Deng Kaiwen asked with a smile. 0
"Brother Deng, please stop!" Yan Jien said awkwardly. 0
"Hehe, I'm not teasing you anymore. Just eat!" Deng Kaiwen said with a laugh. 0
"Okay." Yan Jien nodded. 0
Meanwhile, Li Yanqiu and Zhou Yanping were also whispering to each other. 0
"Yanping, why didn't you tell me your colleague is Yan Jien?" Li Yanqiu said, feeling frustrated. 0
"I didn't know you two knew each other!" Zhou Yanping replied with a wry smile. 0
"Oh no, I've made a huge fool of myself!" Li Yanqiu covered her face. 0
"What happened?" Zhou Yanping asked in confusion. 0
"I didn't tell Yan Jien my name before; I only mentioned my last name. I wanted to surprise him, but now..." Li Yanqiu lamented. 0
"Haha, that's quite the surprise!" Zhou Yanping laughed uncontrollably. 0
"Oh come on, you're still laughing!" Li Yanqiu rolled her eyes. 0
"Alright, alright, I won't laugh anymore!" Zhou Yanping tried to suppress her laughter. 0
"But that Yan Jien is quite handsome!" Zhou Yanping admired. 0
"He is handsome, but he's just too strange!" Li Yanqiu commented. 0
"What's so strange about him?" Zhou Yanping asked curiously. 0
"You know I go for walks in West Lake Park every night, but I've run into Yan Jien several times!" Li Yanqiu said. 0
"Maybe he just happens to pass by?" Zhou Yanping speculated. 0
"At first, I thought so too, but then I realized he goes to West Lake Park almost every day, and he always goes in the middle of the night!" Li Yanqiu explained. 0
"Wow, could he be a creep?" Zhou Yanping was shocked. 0
"I suspect he's the type who likes to wander outside at night and would catch solitary little animals to torture them!" Li Yanqiu guessed. 0
"That's so scary?" Zhou Yanping shuddered. 0
 
 
"Mm." Li Yanqiu nodded. 0
"Then you should stay away from him!" Zhou Yanping reminded. 0
"I know." Li Yanqiu nodded. 0
After that, the dinner party ended smoothly. 0
After finishing the meal, Zhou Yanping suggested going to KTV to sing, but Yan Jien and Li Yanqiu both expressed a desire to go home early! 0
Deng Kaiwen and Zhou Yanping mistakenly thought the two were interested in each other and asked Yan Jien to safely escort Li Yanqiu home! 0
Thus, the two left the food court. 0
At this point, it was already past nine in the evening. 0
Yan Jien and Li Yanqiu walked side by side under the streetlights, and the atmosphere was slightly awkward. 0
"Are you still going out every night?" Li Yanqiu suddenly spoke up. 0
"Huh?" Yan Jien was taken aback. 0
"I sometimes go to West Lake Park at midnight, but I haven't seen you?" Li Yanqiu probed. 0
"Are you spying on me?" Yan Jien squinted his eyes. 0
"I'm not spying on you; I just happen to run into you occasionally!" Li Yanqiu denied. 0
"Occasionally run into me? Then do you remember when I go out?" Yan Jien sneered. 0
"I..." Li Yanqiu was at a loss for words. 0
"Do you know how rude you are?" Yan Jien questioned. 0
"I just want to know if you killed Clark!" Li Yanqiu gritted his teeth. 0
"I'm not that boring!" Yan Jien snorted coldly. 0
"Really?" Li Yanqiu was skeptical. 0
"Why would I lie to you?" Yan Jien retorted. 0
"Then did you go to West Lake Park around two in the morning on the 20th?" Li Yanqiu stared at Yan Jien. 0
"You..." Yan Jien was shocked. 0
