The next morning, before dawn, Chen Ye woke up with his throat so dry that it seemed to be smoking.

Seeing that the little girl on the bed showed no signs of waking up, she entered the space calmly.

I first went to the lotus spring to drink water, then took off my clothes and jumped into the pond to take a bath, and changed into a new set of clothes. While waiting for the silkworm clothes to dry, I went to find a disposable toothbrush to brush my teeth, and then found a set of skin care products from the pile of dusty cosmetics in the warehouse and applied them from head to toe.

The capital city is really too dry. Even without heating, not to mention the air conditioning that has been on all night, the wind outside alone seems to be able to crack the skin.

Even Mai Zihao's beauty, which was earned through his intelligence, seemed to have lost its filter in Beijing.

Chen Ye was not very good at cooking, and there were not many activated kitchen utensils in the wooden house. After drinking last night, he really had no appetite at this time, so he rode Xiaobai around in the space for a long time until the silkworm clothes were completely dry. He put them on and tidied himself up before going back to sleep outside. When he looked at the time, it was past 8 o'clock in the morning and the sky was already bright.

Chen Ye packed his sleeping bag and bedding, and carried the wooden pallet downstairs.

Mai Qing heard her movement, walked out of the room sleepily, and asked her what she was doing getting up so early.

"I have to go out to do some work. There's no need to wake them up. I'll go back to S City after I'm done. I'll come to see you next time."

Mai Qing stopped her and said, "How are you going to leave in such a cold weather? Let Xiao Hao go with you."

Chen Ye waved his hand without even turning his head, "Aunt Qing, just close the door and go back. It's too cold."

Mai Qing watched Chen Ye's thin figure walking away in the snow, sighed, closed the door and went back.

Chen Ye left the gate of the community, found a deserted place, and took out the skis and poles from the space. The weather was too cold, and the luxury car and off-road vehicle in the space were useless.

Qin Wei's car is pretty good, I wonder if I can still get it. Otherwise, it will be so troublesome to deliver the goods next time.

Following his memory and referring to the road signs, it was almost 10 o'clock when Chen Ye arrived at Qin Wei's community.

Qin Wei said that he had a client coming today, and tomorrow was New Year's Eve. After thinking about it, Chen Ye went into the space to get the seafood inventory that the elf had left for her. She filled a bucket with sea fish and a foam box with various shrimps, and rushed to Qin Wei's house with the bags on her shoulders.

Qin Wei's housekeeper came to open the door, and Chen Ye didn't even have time to greet him, "Quick, find your big fish tank with an oxygen supply system."

Qin Wei's family originally had a fish pond, but it became useless after the snow and ice. The huge fish tank in the living room had not been used for a long time.

Chen Ye didn't notice that there were other people in the hall. He put down the box in his hand and the bucket on his shoulder.

Qin Wei walked up to her side and asked, "Miss Chen, what is it that you are moving?"

Chen Ye opened the lid and said, "The fish you've been dreaming of." He poured all the fish into the fish tank, and also poured the box of shrimps into it. "Where's your water? Hurry and get some water."

Qin Wei asked the housekeeper to arrange someone to fetch water, and then he leaned in front of the fish tank and looked at it carefully.

At this time, several people sitting on the sofa also came over.

Only then did Chen Ye realize that there were other people in the room. Seeing those people looking at the fish in the fish tank and looking at him in surprise, he guessed that these people should be Qin Wei's clients, so he nodded at them.

Chen Ye threw the key to the warehouse to Qin Wei, "The goods have arrived. In addition to coal, there is another warehouse full of other supplies. Boss Qin, please send someone to check them out. I don't know exactly how much there is."

Qin Wei asked everyone to go back to the sofa and introduced them one by one.

The one in black is Zhang Jingzhou, who used to be in the real estate business;

The man in khaki clothes is the youngest, looking less than 30 years old. His name is Liu Si Ning, and he is in the food wholesale business. Zheng Ming, the legendary man in the food wholesale industry who is said to have the ability to make money, is his boss.

The man in dark blue is called Yang Mo. Qin Wei did not give a detailed description of what he did before.

The other one wearing black clothes and glasses is called Lu Yuyang, who was previously considered a leader in the Internet industry.

All of these people have complicated relationships with senior officials in the officialdom.

Qin Wei sat in the main seat with a faint smile on his face. He said slowly, "Everyone, Miss Chen is able to bring such fresh and unpolluted seafood at this time. I believe you have heard what Miss Chen said just now. Now let's go with Qin to count the supplies."

Chen Ye interrupted him, "I'm sorry, Boss Qin, I haven't eaten yet. Could you trouble your kitchen to prepare some appetizers for me?" Qin Wei's family was wealthy and powerful, so it wouldn't be a big deal to eat his food or use his people.

Mai Qing's family had a cold stove and she had a big appetite. She didn't have any servants, so she didn't have to worry about it.

Qin Wei smiled and nodded, "What do you want to eat?"

Chen Ye glanced at the fish tank and said, "I drank some wine last night, and now I want to drink some Tom Yum Goong soup."

Qin Wei smiled, nodded to the housekeeper, and asked, "Who did Miss Chen drink with last night?"

"Mai Zihao."

Qin Wei paused for a moment, then continued, "Miss Chen seems to have a very good relationship with the young master of the Mai family."

"It's OK. He's a nice guy. He's a good friend." Chen Ye took a sip of tea. "Boss Qin, go check the goods. I have to go home for the New Year after I settle the bill."

Qin Wei laughed loudly, "Okay, I'll go right away. Miss Chen, please take a rest here first, Qin will be back soon."

After Qin Wei left, Xu He came out and chatted with her gently. Seeing that she was eating without any affectation, he liked it no matter how he looked at her. He even took out a lot of her jewelry.

"Xiao Ye, I heard from Lao Qin that you like jadeite. Can you see if there is anything you like here?"

Chen Ye stopped and looked at her. "Mrs. Qin, if I were your child, I would have been punished by family law a long time ago. You don't have to do this. I have to pay for my cooperation with Boss Qin."

Xu He's face flashed with embarrassment, but she quickly adjusted herself, "I'm not in good health, I only have one son, no daughter. It's rare to see Miss Chen being so straightforward, I really like her."

Because of Chen Ye's words, Xu He even changed his name back to what he was called.

Chen Ye glanced at her, didn't reply, and continued drinking his soup.

After drinking last night, her mouth felt bitter and tasteless. The hot and sour Tom Yum Goong soup stimulated her taste buds. After three bowls of soup, she felt refreshed.

After eating two bowls of vermicelli, a plate of fried spring rolls, and a portion of mango sago, Chen Ye asked someone to clear away the tableware. He sat on the sofa and chatted with Xu He.

Xu He wanted to share her husband's worries and be a good wife. Her mother used to be like this, so she could understand.

But she and Qin Wei each got what they wanted, and Xu He didn't need to please her in this way.
