Mo Yu swirled the golden liquid in his glass, his thoughts still lost in past memories, when suddenly a woman sat down opposite him.

"Can you buy me a drink?" It was a familiar voice.

He looked up and saw a bright and generous woman smiling at him; it was Cheng Xiaoman, whom he had met before.

A waiter not far from Mo Yuchong snapped his fingers, and when the waiter approached, Cheng Xiaoman said, "Give me a Tequila Sunrise."

"Aren't you surprised to see me?" Cheng Xiaoman asked, resting her chin on her hand and staring into Mo Yu's eyes.

"So-so," Mo Yu replied indifferently.

"Tch, he really doesn't know how to please girls." Cheng Xiaoman pouted in dissatisfaction. "You can't have a chauvinistic man like him."

Mo Yu clearly had no intention of trying to win the other party's favor, but he didn't mind the other party saying such things about him, so he chose to remain silent.

"You know what? Last night I dreamt that the orchids in my hometown were blooming." Her face lit up with joy. "And this morning when I opened the window, a thrush was chirping incessantly on the windowsill, and then I knew..."

Cheng Xiaoman deliberately kept him in suspense, looking at Mo Yu expectantly with her bright, sparkling eyes, as if waiting for him to ask her, "What do you know?"

She wore a bright yellow long dress with a white tulle shawl draped over her shoulders. Her long black hair was draped over her shoulders, and she wore a string of pure silver beads on her wrist, which made her look both charming and cute.

However, Mo Yu was only focused on savoring the fine wine in his glass, and the beautiful women seemed to hold no interest for him at all.

"I knew it, I was sure I would meet you." Cheng Xiaoman said the answer word by word, staring at the man opposite her as she spoke, wanting to see his reaction.

Just then, Mo Yu put the wine in his glass to his mouth and drank it all in one gulp, the glass obscuring his view.

The waiter came over and placed Cheng Xiaoman's drink in front of her. There was still one glass of wine left on his tray, which Mo Yu took directly.

"Sir, this drink belongs to another table," the waiter quickly reminded him.

Mo Yu casually took out a hundred-yuan bill and placed it on the tray. The waiter then left without saying anything more.

The atmosphere suddenly became awkward. One person continued drinking, while the other felt left out and could only awkwardly sip their wine.

"Are you still investigating that incident from last time?" Chen Xiaoman finally broke the silence.

"Hmm." Perhaps not wanting to embarrass the other person, Mo Yu squeezed out a single word as he nodded.

"Have you heard that Yuheng Group recently held a technology exhibition? There are quite a few smart robots on display." Cheng Xiaoman said, taking out her phone and searching for news related to the technology exhibition. She showed it to Mo Yu, who glanced at it on his phone without saying anything.

"There are rumors that they seem to be developing a large-scale intelligent project, which, once completed, will shock everyone."

"How did you know I was looking into a large-scale AI project?" Mo Yu suddenly interrupted her coldly.

"Because I wanted to help you, I went around collecting information for you. Do you know that I spent a month's salary to gather this information?" Cheng Xiaoman looked at him with a mournful expression.

Mo Yu knew that her reasoning was not sound, but she couldn't bring herself to question it, so she could only drink in silence.

"Are you going?" Cheng Xiaoman suddenly asked, a seemingly random question, but Mo Yu already understood what she meant.

"Why don't we go tonight? Take me with you." Her bright, sparkling eyes were filled with the same adventurous longing as when she first met her.

Of course I'll go. For Owen's sake, I won't let any clue slip by as long as I can find out who's behind it all. But I have to take her with me.

Just as he was about to think, he saw the other person looking at him with an air of determination.

"I spent a whole month's salary on this. If I can't report a big news story, I'll be left with nothing next month," Cheng Xiaoman said first.

"If the news is true, I'll pay for it," Mo Yu replied, not wanting to owe her a favor.

"Are you going to support me?" Cheng Xiaoman seemed to be overjoyed.

Mo Yu almost choked on the wine in his mouth. To calm his nerves, he could only drink another big gulp.

In terms of verbal sparring, he was never her match to begin with, not last time, and certainly not this time. In the end, he could only silently agree to her request.

Wearing a disguise mask, Qin Xiaochuan stealthily moved forward along the outer wall of the exhibition hall. According to Han Kexin, in order to enter the exhibition hall, the surveillance cameras around the hall had to be disabled.

Of course, he couldn't directly damage it, as that would be equivalent to directly alerting the people in the exhibition hall. What he needed to do was place a jammer near the camera, and Zhou Bin would send a signal to the jammer from inside the sports car, thereby altering the surveillance footage.

Footsteps approached, and Qin Xiaochuan saw a security guard walking towards them from the corner of the wall with a flashlight. Voices were constantly coming from the walkie-talkie the guard was carrying.

He took out a talisman from his body, whispered a phrase, and the talisman immediately turned into a wisp of black smoke, covering his body. Then he disappeared from the spot, and the smoke became exactly the same as the surrounding environment, so that the naked eye could not detect anything unusual.

The security guard quickly turned around from the corner, his flashlight sweeping over Qin Xiaochuan's location. Qin Xiaochuan felt his heart leap into his throat. After all, this was his first time using this invisibility talisman, and he didn't know how effective it would be. If he was discovered, then tonight's intrusion plan would be completely ruined.

The bright beam of the flashlight shone into his eyes, the blinding light forcing him to close them. But to the security guard, the light seemed to be shining into the endless night sky in the distance, so he didn't notice anything unusual.

"Ding! Patrol point C completed. Please proceed to the next patrol point to check in." A crisp intelligent voice came from the security guard.

"Patrol point C complete, no abnormalities." The security guard said into the walkie-talkie, then continued walking forward. When he passed by Qin Xiaochuan, the distance between them was only a hand's breadth, which startled Qin Xiaochuan so much that he held his breath and dared not make any move.

Just as Qin Xiaochuan was counting down the time, hoping the other person would leave soon, the security guard suddenly stopped and turned to face him.

"Damn it!" A thought flashed through Qin Xiaochuan's mind. Just as he was about to control the man in front of him, he found that the other man calmly tucked the flashlight under his arm and began to unbuckle his belt.

"What is this?" Qin Xiaochuan stared dumbfounded at the security guard in front of him. As a boy, he naturally knew what the other party was going to do next.

"Seriously? Can't you have some decency?" Qin Xiaochuan thought to himself, speechless. But with the other person so close, he dared not make any move.

With no other option, Qin Xiaochuan could only slightly open his legs, trying to leave enough space for the other person.

With the sound of rushing water, Qin Xiaochuan's face grew increasingly grim. He clenched his fists tightly, suppressing the urge to punch the man in front of him.

After a long while, which felt like an eternity to Qin Xiaochuan, the man finally finished, shook himself, fastened his belt, and continued his patrol.

Qin Xiaochuan quickly stepped over the corner of the wall and hid on the other side. He looked down and saw that the right half of his pants was already wet.

He took a deep breath, weakly tugged at his trouser leg and shook it, but it didn't help. He couldn't release flames to dry it off here, so he could only frown and continue to feel his way toward the location of the camera.
