"What's this? You've won again?" Qin Sheng said with a smile as he entered the room, taking off his coat and teasing Yan Ling.

  Yan Ling rubbed his own head and chuckled: "It's just that luck is slightly better."

  "If you call this good luck, then aren't we all just a bunch of jinxed people?" Yu Xiao muttered discontentedly, with a cigarette dangling from his mouth.

  Strictly following Yu Xiao's words, he couldn't help but shrink his neck and led Qin Sheng to the mahjong table with a flattering attitude.

  Got it, can't afford to provoke him and hide from him?

  "It's not easy to get some money out of your fingers either." Qin Sheng smiled and sat down at the mahjong table obediently.

  Apart from Yu Xiao, the other two people at the table also knew Qin Sheng. After a simple greeting, they started playing mahjong.

  Yu Xiao has a characteristic, when playing mahjong, he likes to shuffle by hand and doesn't like using machines.

  Nowadays people playing mahjong all like to play machine mahjong, but Yu Xiao feels that this way lacks the fun of re-dealing cards. He plays mahjong just for leisure and chatting along the way, so it doesn't matter about saving time.

  Yan Ling gave up her seat and honestly moved a stool to sit beside Qin Sheng, from time to time refilling the tea for the four people at the table.

  "You said you'd be back in three or five days, how did it end up being over a week?" Yu Xiao smoothly played out a four-tile set.

  "Knock." Qin Sheng opened the door to Yu Xiao's place, pulled out a pack of cigarettes and handed one to Yu Xiao: "There's something I need to discuss with you in detail, so I'm running a bit late. I just got off the plane today and only had time to go back, take a shower, change my clothes before coming over."

  "So what's going on with your thing?" Yu Xiao asked, pulling out another note and looking at Qin Sheng.

  "Alright." Qin Sheng nodded.

  Yu Xiao shook off the cigarette ash. She puffed out a smoke ring from her mouth and smiled, "Now it's done, if someone finds out, they'll definitely jump with surprise."

  "It's not good to just sit there all the time, it's also good to move around and exercise." Qin Sheng hit another nine-tailed card dealt by his opponent, and gave Yu Xiao a high-five. [Cotton Candy]

  "It's also true that some people are already sleeping soundly with their heads held high." Yu Xiao smiled and said, "I heard you went shopping with Miss Gu this time?"

  Qin Sheng's hand movement paused, then he drew a card and played a card with a bamboo suit: "It's been a while since we last met, Yan Ling's mouth has indeed loosened up quite a bit. Not sure if it's a good thing or a bad thing."

  The one who was called out, Yan Ling, smiled and didn't respond.

  "How's it going, found anything good? I said that Miss Gu is really talented. Someone told me before that the older the appraiser, the more powerful they are. I really want to let them see Miss Gu's skills. Look at this age and skill, two different things." Yu Xiao thought of those things Gu Mei helped him pick out, his eyes couldn't help but curve up.

  "It was just a casual stroll to practice my hand, didn't see anything good." Qin Sheng collided with the five bars of the upper house again. He casually played out an ace of spades.

  "That Miss Gu really has some skills. I was worried when I saw how young she is." Yan Ling, who was sitting next to him, suddenly spoke up.

  "So, it seems that Qin Sheng has vision and charisma." Yu Xiao gave Qin Sheng a thumbs up.

  Qin Sheng raised his head and gave Yu Xiao a faint smile: "Pure color, self-touch."

  Yu Xiao's body shook slightly. The cigarette in his mouth suddenly dropped a lot of ash.

  "Qin Sheng, you're really something! You come and immediately get a clear win with no one to rely on!" Yu Xiao shouted at Qin Sheng.

  "It's just luck." Qin Sheng quoted Yan Ling's words.

  "Alright, you two are just my nemesis. Today is destined to lose money." Yu Xiao shook her head and continued playing mahjong.

  This round lasted for two hours, Qin Sheng's side was getting more and more courageous, Da Hu came one after another, Yu Xiao occasionally had a small pot, but most of the time it was Qin Sheng who got blasted.

  Finally, Yu Xiao realized that he was almost out of money, and the other two people at the table tactfully said they had something to do and left first.

  Yu Xiao didn't stay this time. He had something to discuss with Qin Sheng and it wouldn't be convenient with a lot of people around.

  After only Qin Sheng, Yu Xiao and Yan Ling were left in the room. Qin Sheng leaned on the sofa, slightly raised his head, and looked at Yan Ling: "Is everything going smoothly?"

  "With your help, Qin Sheng, how could it not go smoothly? This time I really have to thank you. Those people at the border checkpoint are really annoying." Yan Ling looked at Qin Sheng with a flattering expression.

  "Those people may have different nationalities, but they're all roughly the same at heart." Qin Sheng shook his head and continued, "This time it's just your good luck; if it were a different time, it might not be the case."

  "That's it." Yan Ling nodded slightly.

  "Qin Sheng, I think it's a waste of talent for you to go and deal with antiques. Why don't you come back and work with everyone else? Antiques are just something to play with in your free time." Yu Xiao said regretfully.

  "We grew up together since we were young, I like what you know, don't mention these words again." Qin Sheng patted Yu Xiao's shoulder.

  Yu Xiao let out a soft sigh and nodded in agreement, since even Qin Sheng had said so.

  "Since you like this, as a brother, I can only support you. Whatever you need, just say it. However, if you're going to do it, you have to do your best and kick those blind things aside." Yu Xiao rubbed his fists and took an attacking stance.

  "That's natural." Qin Sheng's mouth corners slightly rose, and he continued, "Recently, during the time I wasn't here, has anything happened?"

  "There's nothing special, just that some things have arrived on my end. I was thinking of coming to find Miss Gu for help another day, but since you're back, you're more familiar with her, so it's better if you pass on the message for me." Yu Xiao smiled and continued: "By the way, your opponent has recently hired a new appraiser and has been taking them around everywhere over the past few days."

  "Same as last time?" Qin Sheng raised an eyebrow.

  "No way! Last time, the news leaked out, so I had to share it with others. This time, I've learned my lesson and didn't let anyone else know." Yu Xiao gave Qin Sheng a knowing glance.

  Qin Sheng nodded and responded to Yu Xiao's question: "Who did he invite?"

  "I heard that he's a newcomer who recently emerged, named Xia Jun. I haven't heard of this person before, but people say he seems to have some skills." Yu Xiao lit a cigarette and started puffing out smoke.

  "Xia Jun?" Qin Sheng smiled lightly: "He really knows how to invite people."

  "How do you know him?" Yu Xiao asked with interest.

  "We've met before." Qin Sheng didn't want to say more.

  Yu Xiao didn't ask much and changed the subject with Qin Sheng. By the time they had said almost everything that needed to be said, it was already past 10 o'clock at night.

  Yu Xiao originally wanted to invite Qin Sheng to have some midnight snacks together, but Qin Sheng thought it was too late and had just sat on a plane for over ten hours, so he politely declined Yu Xiao's kindness and drove back to rest.

  Qin Sheng went home and simply boiled a bowl of frozen dumplings, eating while browsing online news. When he saw reports about the Y country exchange meeting and lavish praise for the winner of the first prize, he suddenly thought of Gu Xiang.

  The report is not very long, after all, it's just a competition of an exchange meeting, with only Gu Bao's name on it, but no photos, and his name didn't appear on it.

  He took a look at the time and it was almost 11 o'clock, so he had to put aside his idea of giving Gu Mian a call. He casually browsed through some other reports before preparing to go to sleep.

  But before he could shut down his computer, his phone rang. He picked it up and saw that it was Mr. Qiao.

  Mr. Qiao called him, and he naturally had no reason not to answer. He quickly pressed the receive key: "Mr. Qiao..."

  It's a weekend with two days off, Gu Mei accompanied Han Lu to hang out outside yesterday, and this Sunday she didn't want to get up no matter what, sleeping sweetly in bed.

  Her mother and grandfather both understood that she rarely had time to sleep in on weekdays, and after getting up, they didn't wake her up either, each busy with their own things.

  When Gu Mei was woken up by the ringing of the phone, Grandpa had already gone out for a walk, and her mother, Ji Yun, was not at home either.

  She rubbed her sleepy eyes and picked up her phone to see that it was Qin Sheng calling.

  She shook her head, forcing herself to sober up a bit, and then pressed the answer button: "Hello, Qin Sheng, you're back from Country Y?"

  "Got back last night and I'm calling you now, am I disturbing you?" Qin Sheng heard the voice of Gu Mei coming from the phone, which seemed to have a softer tone than usual, and immediately thought that Gu Mei might still be sleeping.

  Gu Meng sat up and looked at the alarm clock on her bedside table, finding that it was already 10:30. "No, I'm at home, what's going on?"

  "It's like this, Yu Xiao recently got some things and wants me to take a look, I don't know if you have time." Qin Sheng asked.

  "Today?" asked Gu Ming.

  "As long as you have time," Qin Sheng replied.

  "That's it for today, I'm taking a rest." Gu Mei turned over and got out of bed, sitting in front of the dresser.

  "Then I'll come pick you up later." Qin Sheng also said succinctly.

  "Alright." Gu Ming and Qin Sheng hung up the phone after confirming the time.

  Luckily she washed her hair after coming back last night, so it still looks okay today and doesn't need to be washed again, otherwise I don't know how long it would take to get it done.

  She quickly ran to wash up, then chose what she wanted to wear today and simply put on some light makeup. After taking a look in the mirror, Gu Mei felt that she was already okay, so she called her mom to say that she wouldn't be home for lunch, then took her bag and went downstairs.

  Surely enough, Qin Sheng, who was always punctual, was already waiting outside the residential area. Gu Mei confirmed that her appearance was fine again before walking towards Qin Sheng.
