"Let's go."
Number 18 had by then returned to a relaxed state and spoke in a leisurely tone.
"If you go out, you can bring back some wine; we've almost finished drinking it."
Number 18 knew very well that the other person originally wanted to ask her to go out, but now it seemed that she probably didn't need to go out. After all, the other person was back, and as a woman herself, she could tell that the other person had dressed up carefully, so she didn't want to join in the fun.
Lin Qi nodded at this moment, and then led his men out.
Ruiye silently followed beside Lin Qi, after all, he realized that it had been a long time since he had seen anything like this.
"Onii-chan, it feels like it's been a long time since I've been out like this."
"Hmm, that's true. I used to choose to go to the places I had set up to cultivate and improve my strength whenever I had time."
"After all, I didn't want this to happen, but I always felt insecure because my strength hadn't reached a certain level before."
Lin Qi readily admitted it.
"what about now?"
"No, I still don't feel safe. After all, I know very well that there are many people who can outmaneuver me. But at this point, it wouldn't hurt to take a break, right?"
"In the past, it could be described as a period of rapid growth, but now, although it is growing faster and faster, the amount of accumulation required is also increasing."
When Lin Qi got to this point, his tone was full of emotion, after all, progress was indeed getting slower and slower, and it was taking a lot of time.
Ruiye didn't quite understand these things, but she could sense that the other person seemed quite troubled by the matter.
"But these things don't matter anymore. Let's go buy some good stuff. I've been away for a while, so I'll cook a big meal."
Upon hearing this, Ruiye smiled brightly and said "okay." Then, the two of them went to the mall and began their shopping spree, buying ingredients and such. After Lin Qi finished buying everything, he secretly stuffed it into his personal space.
Ruiye had been watching this operation for a while and had to admit that it was indeed quite convenient, but it was good that nothing was interfering with it.
Seeing that it was still early, Lin Qi and his partner found a place to sit down and have some snacks. After all, there were still almost four hours before dinner, and having a drink wouldn't hurt. However, they didn't expect to run into an acquaintance.
...

Chapter 598 was indeed quite a coincidence.
Lin Qi and Ruiye found a place to sit down and planned to have a drink, but while they were drinking, they ran into an acquaintance, or rather, an acquaintance of Lin Qi.
A lively and energetic little dumpling appeared, along with the person next to her—a classic "normie duo"—looking like they were out having fun.
Immediately afterwards, a sharp-eyed little dumpling spotted Lin Qi. After all, with his blond hair and distinctive face, he was easily recognizable.
Yui Yuigahama, noticing her friend seemed unhappy lately, decided to take her out for a stroll to relax. Unexpectedly, they ran into Lin Qi while getting drinks – quite a coincidence! Yui had a strong impression of Lin Qi, not just because of his handsome face, but more importantly, because he had shown her kindness, though she hadn't had the chance to reciprocate.
Yumiko Miura had been feeling anxious and uncertain lately because someone had disappeared without a trace.
Ten months have passed.
For a young girl like 263 who is enjoying her youth, this is tantamount to waiting for a prison sentence.
Yumiko Miura had been thinking for a while now that this guy might just be playing around and then running away. This thought took root and grew stronger with each passing day.
To put it bluntly, it's about suspecting that you've encountered some kind of scumbag, since this kind of behavior is no different from being a scumbag.
This incident has been causing me to be in a bad mood lately, and this energetic guy next to me, who could tell I was in a bad mood, finally persuaded me to come out for a walk to clear my head.
Yumiko Miura knew that the other party meant well, so she did not refuse. When she felt tired and went to get a drink, she was reminded by someone and heard an unbelievable name. In an instant, her eyes fell on the bastard who had turned her into this state more than half a month ago.
"Yui, let's go over there."
At this moment, Miura Yumiko spoke in a calm tone. Even the most perceptive person couldn't detect anything amiss; they were simply good actors. They were clearly incredibly excited inside, even harboring an urge to punch this scumbag, but their demeanor remained unchanged.
Yui Yuigahama had no doubts about this and walked up with the others, greeting them with great enthusiasm.
"Hello."
"Lin Qi, I didn't expect to see you here."
"Hello, Ruiye."
Looking at the energetic little dumpling, Lin Qi greeted it with a smile.
Ruiye greeted Lin Ba'er with a gentle and soft demeanor, a stark contrast to the other person's energetic personality.
"Hi, Yui-kun, what a coincidence to run into you here."
"Hmph, is it polite of you to call someone you don't know well by their name?"
At that moment, Miura Yumiko suddenly spoke up, and she did so in a manner that resembled someone looking for trouble.
Tuanzi was a little pleased that the person in front of her wasn't being kind, but instead calling her by a familiar address. However, seeing her good friend say this, she didn't want a conflict to break out, since she really didn't care and was even a little happy. But the other person, not knowing what trouble might be caused, hurriedly stepped in to act as a peacemaker.
"Yumiko, it doesn't matter, we're all classmates, you can call me whatever you want."
At this moment, Tuanzi spoke with great energy, reaching out her hand and crossing her arms in front of her chest, looking like a proud and arrogant good friend.
Lin Qi felt somewhat helpless when he saw the other party's profile picture. It was obvious that they were looking for trouble. However, considering his previous behavior, those who didn't know the situation would think that he was trying to cover up his mistakes. So he didn't pay any attention to the other party's provocation.
Lin Qi met the other person's gaze. Seeing the other person's cold expression, but with a hint of grievance, anger, and various other emotions in their eyes, Lin Qi suddenly felt uneasy. He knew his own situation best.
To be honest, he's the one who's being more forceful and controlling, but that does make him seem like a jerk.
"Ahem, please have a seat."
Lin Qi coughed twice, then smiled and gestured for him to proceed.
At this moment, Miura Yumiko also sat down opposite Lynch.
At this point, Yui Yuigahama demonstrated her ability to control the atmosphere, starting by ordering drinks.
Throughout the entire process, Ruiye maintained that gentle demeanor. However, she was not stupid; in fact, she understood the person beside her all too well. She knew that there must be some kind of story between the other person and the person in front of her, otherwise, they would never act this way. Especially since she had been the third party watching the interaction between the two, she had also caught the look in the other person's eyes. Why did it look so much like someone who had been dumped by a scumbag?
Ruiye was a little confused at this point. No matter what, the person next to her would never say that he was a scumbag and abandoned her, right?
After all, based on my understanding, although the other person's personality might not be very decent, he couldn't possibly be such a scumbag.
Ruiye said she was quite confident about this, so there must be some misunderstanding.
Ruiye decided to remain silent for now, observe the situation carefully, and then make a decision. After all, remaining silent was the best option at this time, and of course, she also had to cooperate with the other side.
Ruiye felt inexplicably tired at this moment.
After ordering, start a conversation to liven up the atmosphere.
"Lin Qi, it's been more than half a month since I last saw you. I didn't expect to see you here."
"It really is a coincidence."
Upon hearing this, Miura Yumiko couldn't help but prick up her ears, intending to hear how this person would explain.
"Emmm, I had to leave here for a bit to take care of something. I just got home a few hours ago. It's quite a coincidence, I must say."
Lin Qi sighed at this moment, realizing it was indeed too coincidental; he hadn't expected it to turn out this way.
...
P.S.: Please, handsome guys and beautiful girls, add this to your favorites, recommend it, share it, and give it flowers! Please do everything you can! If you haven't added it to your favorites yet, please do so! Thank you so much! I'm bowing down to you all!
Chapter 599 I'm not into this type!
"I just got back not long ago."
When Lin Qi said this, it seemed like he was having a casual conversation, but he actually wanted to explain further to avoid any misunderstanding. After all, the other person's demeanor clearly indicated that they were someone who should not be disturbed.
Upon hearing this explanation, Yumiko Miura's eyes lit up slightly.
After all, she wasn't stupid; she knew perfectly well that the other person had specifically said that to her.
After all, strictly speaking, this was an explanation of why he was here and why he hadn't heard from anyone for so long.
Although I understood after hearing the explanation, there was still one thing I didn't understand, which made me very unhappy.
All the messages I sent have disappeared. I only left a message saying that I had to leave for a while, and then there was no more news. It's like my messages have sunk into the sea.
Therefore, I not only do not understand this matter, but I can even say that I am full of doubts about it.
"Lin Qi is really busy."
"It's alright, just some minor things."
"Shouldn't you be a trio? How come there are only two left?"
Lin Qi was a little surprised. Normally, there should be a trio, so why is there only two now?
The two men were stunned when they heard this, and for a moment they didn't know how to explain it. There were originally three people who came out, but the other party remembered that they had something to buy and left. More importantly, what they bought was not a good thing.
Lin Qi noticed the troubled expressions on the faces of the two men, and it was clear from their demeanor that something was wrong.
As for what the problem is, I don't know. I need to find an opportunity to find out. But the question is, how do I find out? That's a big problem.
"Hime went shopping separately from us."
Yui Yuigahama didn't explain what it was, simply saying she was going to buy something, but someone looked like they suddenly understood, leaving the two girls bewildered.
Did I not explain myself clearly? It seems like your uncle guessed it. At this moment, the two of them expressed their incomprehension.
Could this be just wild speculation? Both of them had this thought in mind, but the next moment someone shattered their ruthless illusions.
"Emmm, I probably won't buy certain works that can't be described, so let's separate from you guys. And since you two aren't into them, we ended up here."
The two were stunned when they heard this. After all, what the other person said was completely correct. How could this person know their friend so well? It didn't make sense. If they remembered correctly, the two had never interacted before.
"Lin...Lin Qi, how did you find out about this?"
The little dumpling was completely bewildered. It didn't understand how the other person knew about this.
Yui Yuigahama is the kind of easygoing, normal person, or rather, someone with high emotional intelligence. In this situation, she would immediately pretend not to know what you're talking about, but she instantly exposes herself when faced with someone who isn't very cunning.
Yumiko Miura was speechless. If she didn't know who the other person was, she would definitely suspect that he had deliberately leaked the information. Wasn't this blatantly exposing someone else's hobbies and interests?
Of course, it was also because I knew the other person's carefree personality that I realized they were genuinely innocent and without guile; this was an unexpected turn of events.
Of course, it's not the other party's fault. The main question is, how did this guy even guess it?
At this moment, Miura Yumiko looked at Lin Qi with a suspicious gaze.
Lin Qi felt a little uncomfortable being stared at like that. Why was this guy looking at him like that?
"Yumiko, why are you looking at me like that?"
Lin Qi sensed something strange in the other person's gaze, but the other person wasn't disappointed and immediately spoke in a tone full of suspicion:
"You and Hina probably don't know each other at all, right? But how did you find out about this?"
Yumiko Miura seriously suspected that this guy might also be plotting against her behind her back, which was why he knew so much about her interests and hobbies!
It's important to know that not many people actually know about this. It was only because the two of them occasionally overheard each other talking that they understood each other's hobbies. As for the other guys, they were completely unaware.
As it turns out, this guy, who had no connections whatsoever, knew exactly what was going on.

Honestly, based on my understanding of this person, he might really be up to something, after all, he's never been a good person.
Miura Yumiko couldn't help but become wary. To be honest, she didn't want her friend to be ruined by this guy, and the two of them weren't a good match either.
First of all, this guy is very picky about appearances. The other person can only be described as pretty at best, which is definitely not up to par in his eyes. Or even if she is pretty, it doesn't matter. If he actually gets her, it's probably just for fun.
Although Miura Yumiko relied on her own guesses, she felt that her guesses were probably not too inaccurate, so she was quite wary of this guy's strange behavior.
. .
Lin Qi looked at the wary expression on her face and felt a little helpless. Did she have some kind of misunderstanding about him? This girl really is quite suspicious.
"Ahem, I overheard your conversation by chance and I know that the other person has this kind of fetish, so please don't misunderstand. I personally don't have that kind of feeling for her, nor do I pay any excessive attention to her."
"The main reason is that I have good hearing and I just overheard it by accident."
Faced with the questioning gazes of the two men, Lin Qi realized that one of them was completely unaware of the situation and the other had simply misunderstood, leaving him no choice but to explain himself.
And so, a naive person's dream came true. The other person thought about it for a moment and realized that the explanation seemed to make sense. After all, this guy was so strong, his senses must be terrifying, so it wasn't surprising that he heard Ji Yan's conversation.
As for whether this guy intends to hit someone, we'll find out another day when we have the chance to try. Actually, I'm more inclined to believe that he doesn't have any bad intentions, but I'll give it a try for my friend's sake.
...
