Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Looking at the man who dressed up so grandly, the corners of Qi Qingyao’s mouth twitched. She said, “They’re not bad.”

Not bad... This answer made Tan Xiangdie slightly conflicted, as he was still extremely confident in the food served at Qiangjinjiu Restaurant. If these two guests did not come for the food but something else, then naturally they would not know what the food tasted like.

At that thought…

Tan Xiangdie looked at the faces of these two guests who had disguised themselves.

He knelt down next to them slowly.

Closing his eyes, he said in a serious tone, “Hello, I’m the owner of this restaurant. May I ask you a question?”

“Ask away.” Qi Qingyao half raised her eyes. Her voice was soft and slow.

Tan Xiangdie said with interest, “Why did you choose to visit this restaurant?”

“I like the name of the restaurant.” Qiangjinjiu Restaurant! How elegant!

Tan Xiangdie, “Oh...” He was also very proud of the name of the restaurant.

Qi Qingyao added airily, “Something I didn’t expect is how much I dislike the atmosphere of this restaurant.”

Tan Xiangdie said, “As the boss, I care a lot about the opinions of the guests. Can you tell me what exactly is annoying you?”

Qi Qingyao said casually, “You can say that this shop is a brothel, but it works as a restaurant. But if you say that it’s a restaurant, the atmosphere is like a brothel. When we were eating, the shop was so quiet that we couldn’t eat well. There’s a strange contradiction here. I hope that you can improve in it when you have the time.”

“Good point. It does feel contradictory.” Tan Xiangdie thought that this comment was very true. “I feel happy that someone has said this straightforwardly for the first time.”

Qi Qingyao did not make a sound and continued to drink.

Si Jin was still eating the snacks made from rice flour.

When he finished eating, he asked Tan Xiangdie if he had any more.

Tan Xiangdie asked how much more food he needed.

Si Jin then said, “Three more plates.”

Tan Xiangdie waved his hand and had five more plates brought over.

After the snacks were delivered, Si Jin continued to eat.

Qi Qingyao found that the boss had no intention to leave, so she looked at him questioningly. “There’s nothing else, right? Are you going to stay here and watch me eat? Don’t you know that this will make people feel uncomfortable?”

Tan Xiangdie asked unhurriedly, “Do I look that unpalatable?”

Qi Qingyao said, “No, it’s just that I don’t like people staring at me when I eat.”

Tan Xiangdie asked a very serious question. “Aren’t you curious about why I’m staring at you?”

Qi Qingyao said unhurriedly, “Not at all.”

...

‘This guest really doesn’t follow the rules of the game.’

Tan Xiangdie frowned and rubbed his temples, but he was not annoyed. He merely smiled and looked at the two guests before saying calmly, “Because this is the first time I’ve met guests who come to my store to eat under disguise.”

Qi Qingyao: “...”

‘Sh*t, this guy knows I’m disguised? How did he tell? Was my disguise so bad?’ None of her thoughts were displayed on her face. The man might be baiting her; it would be very stupid if she exposed herself. So Qi Qingyao continued to drink extremely calmly. Even her eyelids did not flutter.

Tan Xiangdie noticed that this guest was still calm even though he had called out her disguise. He was even more sure of something—these guests were spies that were sent here to investigate the Wangyue Administration.

The smile on Tan Xiangdie’s face got wider. He said with a laugh, “Little girl, I’ll let you in on a secret.”

“...” Qi Qingyao raised her eyebrows.

Tan Xiangdie came closer and whispered five words, “This is an unlawful enterprise.”

Qi Qingyao, “...” An unlawful enterprise…

Si Jin, who was eating the snacks, was silent for a moment. He cocked his head and looked at the flamboyant man in red with his clear eyes.

Tan Xiangdie, whose attention was all on this little girl, said with a light smile, “If you don’t tell me the purpose of your disguise, I’ll...”

He did not continue.

However, Qi Qingyao filled in for him, “You want to kill me?”

Tan Xiangdie’s eyes were half-closed as he said, “This is an unlawful enterprise, and I’m a black-hearted boss. I often do things that can’t be exposed. So, just tell me what you are here for. Is it to investigate me, or is it to investigate this store?”

‘What the hell, the capital city is so complicated!’ Qi Qingyao sighed and said extremely seriously, “If I tell you that I just happened to walk in because I think the name sounds good, I guess you won’t accept it.”

“How clever~” It was hard to tell from Tan Xiangdie’s tone if he was joyful or angry. He said, “If you just walked in because you think the name sounds good, you won’t disguise yourself. Most people won’t enter a second time if they’re blocked by the guards outside. You specifically changed your face and tried to come in, and were stopped by the guards. However, you showed the guards that you’re rich. It shows that you are a person of status, and that you’re very rich. A very rich person with high status deliberately disguised herself and came into my store? You must have some kind of purpose.”

Qi Qingyao, “...” This analysis was very reasonable. If she did not know that they had really just come to eat a meal, Qi Qingyao herself would believe his words and suspect that she really had ulterior motives.

Tan Xiangdie saw that she had fallen silent, and thus he knew that he was right. He asked, “Tell me, am I right?”

Qi Qingyao did not answer directly; the other party would not believe what she would say, anyway. He had already thought of what she would reply in advance, and so anything she said after would just be her trying to argue.

And so Qi Qingyao just said, “So, are you planning to kill me now?”

A slightly cold chill flashed in Tan Xiangdie’s eyes, and he said, “As long as you remove your human skin mask and let me see your true appearance underneath it, so that I know who you are, I won’t kill you.”

Qi Qingyao stated forcefully, “What if I don’t want to?”

Tan Xiangdie’s gaze swept around, and he said calmly, “How about this? You are my guest. Pick something you’re good at, and I’ll make a bet with you. If you win, I’ll let you go. If I win, you’ll take your mask off and show me your real face.”

Qi Qingyao shrugged. “Seems fair enough!”

Tan Xiangdie’s dark eyes became colder. He said, “I never force my guests to do something, unless they make it necessary.”

Qi Qingyao opened her eyes wider. She was silent for a moment. After the fight in Zhuixian Restaurant, she did not want to make a scene again. She covered her forehead with her palm and said, “Let me think about what we’ll play, okay?”

“Okay, I’ll give you ten minutes.”

Tan Xiangdie was not in a hurry, so he got up and left first.

…

After the man in red left, Qi Qingyao sighed deeply and muttered, “I just wanted to have a meal! I didn’t expect to walk into an unlawful store! How can I be so unlucky?”

Tan Xiangdie was sitting near the entrance and talking to the guards. He had an amazing sense of hearing, and so he heard her muttering. He frowned. Could it really be a mistake?

Si Jin asked in a small voice as he munched on a sweet snack, “Should we use force?”

Tan Xiangdie heard and froze again. It seemed that it was not a mistake. The other party already had the power to attack…

Qi Qingyao’s smile was very lazy. “No. Didn’t he say that he’ll show us some courtesy first? There’s no need for violence, now, so what’s the hurry?”

Si Jin cocked his head and asked, “What do you plan to bet with him?”

Qi Qingyao took a look at Si Jin, who was seriously nibbling on the snacks, and thought of something. She patted Si Jin’s shoulder and said with a smile, “Why don’t we send you to bet with him this time? He didn’t say it has to be me, anyway.”

“Okay,” Si Jin responded readily.

He put down the snack in his hand.

When Qi Qingyao saw how confident Si Jin was, she asked, “What do you want to play?”

Si Jin did not know how to answer this question. He had no idea what to play, and after racking his brain for half a day, something flashed in Si Jin’s brain. He said, “Let’s play dice.”

Dice?

She knew how to as well.

However, she had already passed the floor to Si Jin.

Qi Qingyao asked, “Are you confident?”

“Of course I’m confident.” Si Jin did not think he would lose.

Qi Qingyao thought about it. This guy was a little jinx. The few times he had spoken like this, he was sure to win! Anyway, if they could not win… They would have to show their identity!

After the decision was made, Qi Qingyao turned to the inside of the restaurant and shouted, “Hey, we have finished discussing!”

Tan Xiangdie, who was sitting near the door, heard the call. He slowly came over.

He looked at the two guests, intrigued.

Qi Qingyao said, “We’re gonna play dice. We’ll bet on who gets more points. If we win, you have to let us go.”

“Dice? That simple?” Tan Xiangdie was really surprised.

Qi Qingyao patted Si Jin’s shoulder and said, “I’ll send him out for the challenge.”

Tan Xiangdie knelt in front of the two once again, then he said calmly and leisurely, “I’ll do it myself.”

He then asked someone to bring two dice cups.

Tan Xiangdie asked, “Do you want to check the dice cups?”

“I’ll check.” Qi Qingyao went forward, checked both dice cups, and turned to Si Jin and said, “No problem.”

She grabbed a dice cup and handed it to Si Jin.

Si Jin took the dice cup, looked at the confident man in red, and said, “I have a feeling you’ll get four points at most.”

Tan Xiangdie snickered internally.

Four points?

What a joke.

He was known to be a master of everything, a jack-of-all-trades!

Otherwise, how could the Administration secretly work under its disguises?

Si Jin had never played dice before. He followed the example of Qi Qingyao last time, picked it up, and shook it. When it was put down, a dice was even flung out...

This situation also made Qi Qingyao nervous...

Looking at how unfamiliar he was with the dice, Tan Xiangdie was a little dumbfounded. He thought, ‘You’re at this level, and you still want to bet with me?’

Si Jin located the dice that was flung out, awkwardly picked it up, and stuffed it back into the cup. He asked if he could shake it again.

The corners of Tan Xiangdie’s mouth twitched and he said yes.

Si Jin awkwardly shook it again.

Tan Xiangdie also began to shake.

After the dice cups of both sides fell down steadily, they opened it at the same time.

Tan Xiangdie looked at the dice cup in front of the teenager and was stunned. “Eighteen points.”

Then he was even more shocked when he looked inside the dice cup in front of himself. “Four points ...”

“How can this be!!!” Tan Xiangdie got up instantly and pointed at the dice cup, completely disarmed. “This!!!”

He had never lost so badly ever since he had learned how to control the number of dice points. This was a total defeat!

Qi Qingyao said with a smile, “Accept your loss graciously, boss.” Si Jin was a little jinx, indeed!

“...”

Tan Xiangdie had never been so humiliated. He looked at the teenager, indignant, and sternly said, “You just shook twice. I want to shake it again too.”

Qi Qingyao said with a chuckle. “You’re gonna get four points even if you do it again!”

Si Jin said, “Then you can do it again. It’s also four points anyway.”

Tan Xiangdie snorted coldly and shook the dice cup once more, this time very seriously.

After putting it down, he opened it with a very grave expression.

Sure enough, it was four points again ...

This was so weird!

Tan Xiangdie broke down a little. “I— I can’t accept this.”

“Do you really intend to dispose of this matter unlawfully?” Qi Qingyao sarcastically looked at the man in red who could not accept defeat, patted Si Jin’s shoulder, and said with raised eyebrows, “I can tell you something… You really can’t afford to offend this guy we have here.”

Tan Xiangdie froze. He looked at this man, who was disguised to look very ordinary, so ordinary that he could not be identified when among a crowd of people, “Is he… Rank nine?”

Was he trying to get something out of her? Qi Qingyao did not bother to reply. She repeated, “Accept your loss graciously, boss.”

Tan Xiangdie was now very sure that this little girl was a spy that came to his restaurant for information. However, he did not know who she was taking instructions from.

Why was it so difficult to get information out of her?
