If the last meeting place was the most famous western restaurant in the capital, then Dong Ning Bay was the restaurant that specialized in local specialties the most.

Xie Ru wore a cheap black-and-white plaid dress, red high heels, and a Chanel bag in her hand. On her face was a royal blue mask of Princess Elsa.

Even though she was dressed like this, she still attracted everyone’s attention – her temperament could not be hidden after all.

“Miss X?”

Gu Liao glanced at Xie Ru and was somewhat puzzled. The Miss X that Joseph had mentioned was supposed to be the most beautiful woman from the east but that description did not match the woman in front of him at all.

“Miss X’s preferences are really special.”

Xie Ru shrugged her shoulders and smiled faintly. “The same goes for you.”

How could the mysterious person Q be any better? He showed up with a patch on his body.

Moreover, this man was disabled. He was sitting in a wheelchair and his face was covered by a Donald Duck mask. Coupled with the sound of the voice changer, he looked even funnier.

She was already doing well to not laugh out loud. And yet this person actually dared to look down on her. She did not know where his ego came from but this person looked very familiar. She did not know if it was just her own imagination.

“Miss X, I’m sorry. I did not have the time to meet you previously.”

“It’s okay. Let’s talk about our future cooperation.”

“Cai Yu is the biggest jewelry merchant. There are many valuable pieces of jewelry in his hands, especially the whale’s tears that we are going to obtain. Due to its fame and the high demand for it, we have to get it before it’s auctioned off.”

Xie Ru nodded. The problem was how they were going to get the whale’s tears. Cai Yu had assigned a lot of security in the Jing An building. With infrared surveillance, it would be even more difficult to get the item.

“We’ll gather at Jing An building in three days. You don’t have to worry about the rest. I’ll make the necessary preparations.”

Xie Ru looked at the man suspiciously. “I hope Mr. Q won’t be late.”

“Definitely.”

Suddenly, Gu Liao’s phone vibrated. It was a call from the villa. He looked at Xie Ru apologetically and rolled the heavy wheelchair outside slowly.

“Young Master, Young Madam is missing.”

“What happened? Wasn’t she fine during the day? What happened at night?”

“Young Master, the power in the villa has gone out. After we restored the power, we realized that Young Madam is missing.”

Gu Liao’s heart trembled as his mind thought of countless possibilities, including Xie Ru being kidnapped.

“I’ll return immediately.”

“Yes, Young Master.”

Gu Liao glanced into the private room. After deciding between the two sides, he chose to leave. In any case, he had already explained everything clearly. He only wanted to see if the collaboration in three days would result in the acquisition of the whale’s tears.

Xie Ru waited in the room for a long time. After not seeing anyone for a long time, she finally stepped out in her high heels to take a look. He was just a guy in a wheelchair. Could it be that he had grown legs and ran off on his own?

Perhaps he really did.

“Miss, you have to pay the bill.”

Xie Ru glanced at the bill. Wow, it was really expensive.

“Was there a man in a wheelchair just now-“

“Miss, are you talking about the person who was with you? The one wearing the mask of Donald Duck?”

Xie Ru nodded. “That’s right. Do you know where he went?”

“Miss, that person has already left. If there’s nothing else, please pay the bill first.”

Xie Ru secretly cursed this Q for not having any gentlemanly manners. He didn’t have any money and still chose such a luxurious place. He ordered such expensive food and still hadn’t eaten his fill. What was he after?

Once he wore this mask, who knew who he was? Even if he were to find a barbeque stall by the roadside, it would still be much better than here. He wouldn’t lose face and suffer.

Xie Ru finally paid the bill. Fortunately, she came out with a bag. Otherwise, she would not have been able to pay for today’s order..
