After Qi Yu returned to the city center, he did not go to see Xu Jing. Rather, he asked Wang Meng to take him to an English-style teahouse near Fengmao Building first.
“Qi Yu!” Seeing him coming, Tang Weiye immediately stood up and waved to him enthusiastically.
“Have you been waiting long?” Qi Yu walked over and sat down.
“I got here when I sent you the message.” Tang Weiye said, rubbing his hands together, “I ordered a pot of Darjeeling black tea, is that okay? ”
“Yeah.” Qi Yu looked at him with a half-smile, and saw that he was wearing a well-ironed shirt and trousers today. He even had a tie and his hair was freshly permed. He looked as if he was going to a wedding.
Because he already had a relationship with Fu Yansheng and has also tasted the fun of that kind of thing, Qi Yu was no longer bothered about his sexuality and was more tolerant of others who shared his sexuality. Although he still couldn’t say he liked Tang Weiye, he was no longer as intensely disgusted and contradictory towards him as he was in the past. Besides, he didn’t ask Tang Weiye to meet here to develop any sort of romantic relationship with him.
Tang Weiye asked, “What about Si Hang did you want to ask me about? Don’t you have a good relationship with him? Why don’t you just ask him directly?”
Qi Yu: “That guy Si Hang wants to save face. I’m afraid he’ll be embarrassed to answer me if I ask him directly.”
Tang Weiye: “That’s true…”
Qi Yu: “Isn’t his game company supposed to go public this year? Are you sure?”
Tang Weiye: “Yes, the IPO will take place in July this year.”
Qi Yu: “Who’s handling the listing of the company for him? Secretary Xu?”
Tang Weiye: “There’s also people from his brother’s side. Anyway, he doesn’t involve himself in any of that. He just sits and waits to collect the money.”
Qi Yu: “Do you think he’ll make money?”
Tang Weiye swore, “It’s definitely possible. Didn’t I say it last time? Si Hang’s brother knows people above. We sure can make a profit.”
Qi Yu frowned and said, “Who does he know? Are they reliable?”
“How can they not be reliable? Their family has a wide network…” Tang Weiye drew close to Qi Yu and mysteriously told him the names of two institutions and official positions. He added, “Si Hang’s father also knows the chairman of Mingtai Securities. They say that Mingtai has already invested 50 million in Si Hang’s game company. He now has so much money that he won’t be able to burn it all!”

Qi Yu raised his eyebrows. “Just that little bit?”
Tang Weiye blushed: “My parents won’t let me handle matters yet. It’s already not bad that I can spend two million of my pocket money to invest in him. Well, Zhu Lin and the others are all moonlight. They can’t even spend one million! ”
Qi Yu: “I’m just kidding with you. Looks like I got you all flustered.”
Tang Weiye: “…”
Qi Yu said again, “I remember that Si Hang’s family and your Tang Qi FAW seem to be business partners too?”
Tang Weiye: “Si Holding owns shares in our Tang Qi FAW. They can be considered a minority shareholder.”
Qi Yu poured him a cup of tea and asked, “You’re an adult now. Why are you still idling around all day? Don’t your parents want to involve you in the business?”
“My dad, my uncle, as well as my eldest sister and second brother are all taking care of things.” Tang Weiye said with a shrug, “I haven’t even graduated from university yet. I don’t know anything, so what can I do?”
Qi Yu tentatively asked, “Are your older brother and sister close to Si Hang’s brother?”
“My sister is married so she doesn’t go out to play very much. But my second brother and Si Hang’s brother know how to have a good time. They started a sports car club and invested in several companies together. They often get together.” Tang Weiye boasted. After a while, he remembered something and said, “Oh yeah, my brother was the one who put up the money to build that go-karting field I invited you to last year but didn’t go to.”
Qi Yu refused to follow that trail of conversation and simply asked, “Your second brother is so powerful, why didn’t you ask him to give you the whole company? Just like Si Hang’s game company. You can be the president of your own company and train yourself and get in some experience.”
Tang Weiye snorted. “Train, my ass. What is it you think that that idiot Si Hang can do? With Xu Yizhou around, he doesn’t even do his own homework. He has Xu Yizhou write it for him! He just wanted to play games and asked his brother to make this company for him. Day in, day out, he acts all smug in front of us. My brother wouldn’t indulge me like that.”
The two chatted for a while. When Qi Yu’s cell phone rang, he got up to answer the phone, He said to Tang Weiye, “I still have something to do, I have to go.”
Tang Weiye stood up and said, “Ah? Already? It’s been less than an hour.”
Qi Yu picked up his coat from the back of the chair and put it on. “I’m really in a hurry. Meeting with you, I’m just sticking in a pin wherever there's room.”
Tang Weiye looked a little disappointed.
Qi Yu told him, “By the way, don’t tell Si Hang I came to meet with you. With how sensitive he is about how he’s seen by others, if he finds out I’ve been asking for info from you behind his back, I might just lose this friend. ”
Tang Weiye looked foolishly at him. “Don’t worry, I won’t tell him.”
Qi Yu walked to the door, and Tang Weiye followed him to see him off. When he was about to get into the car, he said, “Can you reply to my WeChat messages more often?”
Qi Yu stopped, suddenly looked at him seriously and said, “Tang Weiye, if you don’t engage in something serious, I really won’t have something in common to talk about with you.”
Tang Weiye choked and asked instinctively, “Something serious?”
Qi Yu’s eyes flickered: “You can’t live off pocket money all your life.”
Paying no mind to Tang Weiye’s expression, he told another address to Wang Meng after getting in the car and went directly to find Xu Jing.
That was Fu Yansheng’s phone call just now, saying that they had already negotiated with Yu Lian and were preparing to go back to the city center.
In the car, Qi Yu pondered the information Tang Weiye had just revealed to him, including the one about Mingtai Securities. He felt that there were more clues being strung together.
The place where Si Ze made an appointment to meet Xu Jing was at a business club near Fengmao. In just a few minutes, he had already arrived.
Qi Yu packed up his emotions and after entering through the door, he said, “Sorry, there was a traffic jam on the road, so I’m a little late.”
Xu Jing glanced at him calmly. “It’s alright. Come and sit. Chief Si and I are almost done talking.”
Qi Yu saw that Si Ze’s right eye seemed to be a little more swollen than it had been that afternoon. It was also turning a little blue. It looked comical having him sit there all straight and proper in front of Xu Jing.
He asked again, “Si Ze, is your eye feeling a bit better?”
With Qi Yu’s reminder, Si Ze got so angry, his uninjured eye shot up. “Do you think it’s better? I can’t even open this eye!”
Xu Jing said with a smile, “I was just saying that. Chief Si, why don’t you be a little bit more careful? Fortunately, we’re in private room. If we’d met in a bar, people will think that I beat you.”
