Chapter 107 - Self-Rescue Manual of a Villainess

Time always flies by quickly. The ball that Li Meng had talked about was right on schedule. For the sake of her mission, Nan Yin had to put on the cumbersome evening gown and then got into the car sent by the young miss to pick her up. This time, the venue for the banquet was not at the Emerald Tower but on the estate under Li Meng’s name, located in the ecological zone of Tianzhou City. Nan Yin was somewhat surprised at first, but then became numb as she walked. It must be said that the rich people in this world enjoyed life more than those in her previous world. After all, Nan Yin had never seen in her past life a magnate who would enclose an ecological garden with technology and eco-glass within a metropolis. Upon entering the estate, Nan Yin realized that the banquet was not exclusively for the younger generation, as Li Meng had described. Looking around, there were already several dozen middle-aged successful men and women, clearly making this another supposedly upper-class casual gathering. Unlike last time, this time Li Meng directly brought out several young elites to meet Nan Yin. “Nan Yin! You finally made it!” Li Meng gave Nan Yin a big hug as soon as she saw her. “Come on! Let me introduce you. This is my best friend, Nan Yin! He's now the CEO of a company, of course! But first and foremost, he's my good friend!” Li Meng enthusiastically introduced Nan Yin to the young elites. Then it was the turn for the young elites to be introduced by Li Meng. She first introduced a cute girl with short hair and then a gentle-looking black-haired girl. “Nan Yin, this is Suzuki Yuanzi, the young miss of the Suzuki Group, and next to her is her good friend, Xiao Lan.” “This is Kou Banze Xuan, the future heir of the Kou Banze Group!” After introducing several people, Nan Yin already understood the purpose of Li Meng’s invitation to the banquet. These young elites’ families were more or less involved in the arms business. Li Meng introduced these people to Nan Yin with the intention of broadening her horizons. Nan Yin reciprocated without hesitation, exchanging business cards with these young ladies and gentlemen. It was only when it came to a little boy wearing a blue suit and a red bowtie that she frowned slightly, because he impatiently said, “It's because of you arms dealers that there are so many shooting incidents every year!” Nan Yin remained unfazed and pinched the boy's cheek. On the other hand, Suzuki Yuanzi directly landed a punch on the boy's head. “You brat! Watch your mouth! Apologize to me!” After all, that statement had implicated their family as well! The boy was pulled by Xiao Lan and Suzuki Yuanzi to apologize to Nan Yin. However, Nan Yin frankly didn't mind. Boys of this age did have an overflowing sense of justice, and she understood. After exchanging business cards, Li Meng pulled Nan Yin into the estate. It must be said that this time the atmosphere at the ball was much better than last time. There were already prepared buffets and barbecues on the lawn of the estate, and the younger generation had already started a barbecue party. However, at the banquet, Nan Yin unexpectedly saw several familiar faces. “Brother Chen! Sister Miao Luo!” Nan Yin waved to the two figures in the distance, pulling Li Meng along. Miao Luo, who was already bored to the point of absent-mindedness, saw Nan Yin and immediately greeted her, and Chen Yi also smiled at her. “Nan Yin! I heard you recently started a company, congratulations,” Chen Yi expressed his congratulations to Nan Yin, dressed in police uniform. Then he looked at Li Meng, “It’s been a while, little one, you've grown taller?” “Yes indeed, I've been drinking milk,” Li Meng stood with her hands on her hips. It was the other plump man beside Chen Yi who looked at Nan Yin with surprise, “You started a company at such a young age? Truly outstanding.” The slim man beside Chen Yi, who had been ogling at Miao Luo, directly patted the plump man's shoulder upon hearing this. “Mu, are you envious again? It's because you wanted to be a police officer at first. I think you might as well resign and work as a detective with me. The two of us, together, are sure to make a big impact!” After joking around with Chen Yi, Miao Luo, and others for quite a while, Nan Yin finally found an excuse to leave with Li Meng. It was only at this point that Nan Yin began her true purpose: to find Su Xiaoyu. She had already probed Li Meng earlier, and this time Su Xiaoyu was invited to the banquet, along with Nan Xi, so the task this time was not difficult to complete after all. Finally, Nan Yin found Su Xiaoyu and his group before the buffet. Along with him were Nan Xi and another middle-aged man in ordinary attire. Su Ranran did not accompany them this time, and Nan Yin had once suspected that Su Ranran stuck with Su Xiaoyu everywhere he went. “Sister!” Nan Xi was excited to see Nan Yin and ran over directly. Su Xiaoyu also nodded approvingly upon seeing this scene. It seemed like her suggestion was useful after all. Nan Xi and Nan Yin now appeared harmonious, right? Nan Yin reached out and gently patted Nan Xi's head, then looked at Su Xiaoyu. As expected, the progress bar for her mission had started to rise, and the so-called psychic power value was increasing. Because of this, Nan Yin had to engage in long conversations and find opportunities to stay with Su Xiaoyu. However, during this time, Nan Yin noticed that the middle-aged man had not left. She couldn't help but inquire, “Who is this?” Before Su Xiaoyu could speak, the middle-aged man, with a warm smile, introduced himself, “I am Zhang Zishou, doing some small business in Shenchuang.” Zhang Zishou? Nan Yin had never heard of him, and it seemed like he didn't exist in the original work. Nan Yin smiled and dismissed this matter from her mind. Meanwhile, on the other side of the estate, two men wearing all black with sunglasses were whispering to each other. Next to them was a beautiful woman with snow-white hair and wine-red eyes, just like Nan Yin, who was looking all around, seemingly interested in everything. Suddenly, the woman spotted something and looked towards the area where the snow-haired girl was conversing with a young man with cat ears. She tilted her head slightly. “Oh..?” Why does that girl look so much like me? The same white hair, the same red eyes. Blinking, the woman turned to the two men in black beside her who were still conversing, “Gin, can I go over there and get some barbecue?” The conversation immediately stopped, and Gin looked at the woman for a few seconds before silently nodding. Having received permission, the woman immediately beamed a happy smile and delicately approached the snow-haired girl. We look so much alike, today I must find out where you’re from, hmm.
