After leaving Yuquan Bar, Liu Zixuan took out his phone from his pocket and opened a text message.

It was the address and contact information that Qin Si had sent him earlier.

He immediately dialed the number directly, and after a short while, someone picked up: "Who is this?"

"Liu Zixuan here, Master Qin, let's arrange a place to talk."

"Didn't I leave you an address last time?"

"No, let's change the place." Liu Zixuan didn't want to go to the address left by Qin Si at all; firstly, it was too far, and secondly, there were too many uncertainties.

Qin Si remained silent for a moment before saying: "Celestial Tea House at the intersection of Si Ju Road!"

"Alright, I'm waiting for you!" Liu Zixuan said, then hung up the phone and drove straight to Celestial Tea House.

After arriving, he waited in the car for about ten minutes, and the familiar Rolls-Royce luxury car appeared again. Qin Si was dressed the same as that day, but this time, a beautiful woman in office attire accompanied him.

Liu Zixuan got out of the car and walked over directly: "I didn't expect Master Qin to not be alone on a regular day!"

"I sensed something was off in your tone over the phone, so I guessed something might be up and brought a secretary."

Qin Si smiled warmly and introduced the woman: "This is the little doctor I've mentioned to you before, Liu Zixuan."

"Little Doctor, this is my secretary, also a niece of mine, Qin Lanlan."

"Hello, Little Doctor!" Qin Lanlan's charisma was somewhat similar to Liu Ruyan's friend Bai Jingjing, both carried a naturally alluring aura. However, Qin Lanlan appeared more mature than Bai Jingjing, especially with her figure-hugging office attire, making her more captivating.

If it were any other day, Liu Zixuan would certainly have teased such a beautiful woman, but today, he had no interest whatsoever.

He simply returned her smile and said to Qin Si: "Let's talk inside."

Qin Si was momentarily stunned and smiled: "Alright."

He couldn't quite figure out Liu Zixuan. Previously, he made inquiries, and Liu Zixuan indeed had several lovely women around him, suggesting that this little doctor might have the playboy personality that enjoys beautiful girls.

But now, Qin Lanlan greeted him actively, and yet he wasn't enthusiastic at all, which threw Qin Si off. He came here this time intending to use Qin Lanlan to capture Liu Zixuan's interest, thereby securing cooperation!

It seems his perfect plan was wrong once again!

The three of them entered the teahouse together and were led by a waiter to the Hundred Books Pavilion private room.

"Do you need some entertainment?" Qin Si asked.

Liu Zixuan shook his head: "No need, I'm here to discuss serious matters!"

Hearing this, Qin Si's eyes flickered twice, then he waved to the waiter: "You can leave. No one within a hundred meters."

"Yes, Master Qin!" The waiter respectfully exited.

Qin Lanlan skillfully poured them some tea before sitting to the side.

"Since the little doctor wants to talk business, let's skip the pleasantries and get straight to the point!" Qin Si said.

Liu Zixuan nodded: "I've thought through what you mentioned before, and we can cooperate."

"Really!"

Qin Si's eyes immediately lit up, but the light quickly faded; Liu Zixuan was responding too straightforwardly, and seeking him out in such a rush.

It can't be that simple!

He immediately shifted the tone and asked: "You probably have conditions, right?"

"Two conditions. If Master Qin agrees, our cooperation can start now. If not, you and I will go seek others. I think among the ten influential figures in Celestial Capital, there are quite a few who wish to stand out independently!"

Liu Zixuan got straight to the point, effectively gripping Qin Si's handle.

The simple logic is that since they are called the ten influential figures, they are certainly elites among elites, and none would be simple.

Qin Si, being the most scholarly among the ten, even had aspirations for solo supremacy, so the other nine, or at least most of them apart from the unspeakable one, surely shared such thoughts!

Qin Si paused: "The little doctor's words are sharp, but such frankness is also your style. Which two conditions, feel free to say!"

"First, we are in a cooperative relationship, not a superior-subordinate one. So whatever I want to do, you have to assist me, and vice versa!" Liu Zixuan said in a deep voice.

"That's natural. Since it's cooperation, there must be sincerity. If the little doctor can't trust me, we can even draft a contract!" Qin Si didn't find this request unreasonable.

Right now, he needed someone like Liu Zixuan with strength to assist him. Once successful in the future, whether or not to keep Liu Zixuan would be a matter for the future.

Liu Zixuan was naturally aware of this, too. What seemed nice as cooperation was really just mutual utilization!

Liu Zixuan had not expanded his network in Celestial Capital, so finding the person who attacked him from behind, and also injured Luo Xi, wasn't going to be simple.

Despite seeing Zuo Tongyu's motorcycles, Liu Zixuan thought carefully and figured if it had truly been Zuo Tongyu, they would probably have acted then. No need for underhanded tricks!

Subsequently, he said: "No need for a contract, mutual understanding is enough. The second condition is that after the matter is done, I won't share this territory with you; I just need a small area in West City."

At this point, Liu Zixuan slowly raised his head, smiled meaningfully, and said: "Master Qin, this way, you can oversee the big picture, and I will only occupy a small piece without threatening you."

"What are you saying, I am not someone who burns bridges after crossing rivers!" Qin Si shook his head immediately. But in his heart, he thought, this kid is really farsighted. But also smart, knowing how to find a retreat!

Both had their own plans, Qin Si thought Liu Zixuan took a step back, but Liu Zixuan was just using this method to temporarily leverage Qin Si's network in Celestial Capital!

"Just these two conditions?" Qin Si asked.

Liu Zixuan nodded: "That's right, but there's also a small matter I'd like Master Qin to assist with!"

"Feel free to say!" Qin Si was delighted, as he was the first to recruit Liu Zixuan, like adding wings to a tiger. This significantly aided his plans.

A touch of coldness appeared in Liu Zixuan's eyes as he slowly said: "This morning, my girlfriend was injured by a hidden weapon on Si Ju Road. I wish Master Qin to have your men find the two who fired the hidden weapon. Just locating them is enough; I can handle the rest myself!"
