That afternoon, Irina received another invitation from the castle owner to attend their party.
Originally, Irina definitely didn’t want to go, but since Ye Qiu needed to find the murderer, she had to accompany him personally.
After Irina agreed, she planned to take Ye Qiu with her tonight, under the pretext of him being her male companion.
At Oliver Manor, the butler prepared a new suit for Ye Qiu around five in the afternoon.
Actually, the suit didn’t look very good on Ye Qiu because it was tailored for Westerners, and Ye Qiu’s physique wasn’t particularly strong.
Ye Qiu and Irina got into the bodyguard’s car, leaving Oliver Manor, heading to a place called Brook Manor.
It was actually located in a small town near London.
After about an hour and a half, the bodyguard finally arrived.
When Ye Qiu and Irina got out of the car, Ye Qiu didn’t have the bodyguard follow them.
Looking around, he indeed found the manor quite strange.
It appeared somewhat gloomy, clearly in the shadow away from the sunlight.
Especially at night, there wasn’t a hint of moonlight.
"Is this your friend’s old castle?"
"It’s rented by my friend who usually loves throwing parties with lots of young people."
Rented?
There are many castles in Europe, like in Luxembourg alone there are quite a few, and even more in other countries.
Some of these castles are quite valuable, while others are not worth much.
After all, maintaining them requires a significant amount of funds annually.
As Ye Qiu and Irina entered the castle, they saw two young maids waiting below. Seeing that it was Miss Irina, they led her and Ye Qiu inside.
The outside of the old castle indeed looked very ancient, but the inside appeared to be luxuriously decorated.
When they reached the second floor of the castle, aside from the loud music, Ye Qiu saw many blond young men and women dancing and drinking.
These kinds of activities were exactly what unruly young men and women loved, besides there might be other entertainments.
Upon coming up, Irina kept holding onto Ye Qiu.
"Irina, you’re here?"
Someone greeted Irina.
However, they didn’t expect Irina to be holding a young man with a Huaxia appearance.
Actually, these white people considered themselves superior and looked down on Black and Huaxia people. Unexpectedly, Irina brought a male companion who had a Huaxia face.
Some males who fancied Irina seemed a bit displeased.
Irina recalled that night when something unknown bit her shoulder here, and thinking about it, she felt scared.
If it weren’t for Ye Qiu, she really wouldn’t want to come back to this place.
"Just stay with me, I’ll protect you."
Ye Qiu whispered to her.
Ye Qiu also felt there was something indescribable about this place.
When the two of them found a place to sit down, a young British man came over to provocatively ask, "Are you from Huaxia?"
"No."
No?
The other didn’t believe him, judging by his skin, it was obvious he was from Huaxia.
Of course, there are many people with this complexion in Southeast Asia too.
Ye Qiu spoke English very fluently and precisely.
Initially, some of the other young British men wanted to ask Irina for a dance, but Irina didn’t want to, she just wanted to go back now.
"Irina, come dance with us."
Western parties love social dancing the most, including various kinds of social dance.
This even includes very close and intimate types.
Ye Qiu naturally understood this.
However, Irina wasn’t willing, she was somewhat scared, and even her expression seemed different, as if there was something in the crowd constantly watching her.
"Irina, let’s dance."
Ye Qiu had just taken a sip of the wine, feeling the taste was average, so he didn’t drink more, and when he took Irina to dance, at first the young men thought he wouldn’t know how.
Unexpectedly, Ye Qiu danced far better than any young man and woman present.
Ye Qiu danced with such ease.
His dancing was so good that not only was Irina surprised, but the surrounding young women were also surprised and no longer looked at him with prejudiced eyes.
His outstanding dancing skills indeed attracted many young women, who all wanted Ye Qiu to dance with them, but Ye Qiu refused them.
Moreover, Irina was always holding onto him, and whispered in his ear, "Dr. Ye, I feel like something is constantly watching me."
"Really? Just relax, as long as I’m here, no one can harm you."
Irina then gradually loosened up a bit.
At that moment, the young men around seemed even more uncomfortable, assuming Ye Qiu and Irina appeared very close.
One of them called Ye Qiu over and directly asked, "Do you dare to drink?"
This red wine seemed fine at first, but after drinking a lot it could easily cause vomiting and intoxication.
The young men thought he wouldn’t dare to drink.
"Without stakes, I don’t want to drink."
Stakes?
These were wealthy heirs, they had money to spend.
"Five thousand British Pounds per glass," a young man said looking at him.
Five thousand British Pounds is about forty thousand Huaxia Yuan, which wasn’t low at all.
Under normal circumstances, just a few drinks might be unbearable.
Surprisingly, Ye Qiu said, "I’ll pay you five thousand per glass."
Just this little money, and they wanted to gamble on drinks with Ye Qiu.
Ye Qiu really couldn’t be bothered with it.
"Ten thousand per glass," said another young man.
Irina thought it would be better if Ye Qiu didn’t drink. With so many people here, how could Ye Qiu possibly win against them, and who knows if they might spike the wine with something?
Ye Qiu still remained silent.
Several young men continued to bargain, finally saying, "Fifty thousand British Pounds for a bottle."
Fifty thousand was certainly not a small amount.
When Ye Qiu had them bring the wine, he just sat there.
In no time, he drank a bottle, handed fifty thousand British Pounds to Irina, and then drank more.
By the time those young men ran out of cash, they found Ye Qiu had already downed many bottles of red wine yet seemed completely unaffected.
"Got more? I can keep drinking until you all turn into beggars."
Ye Qiu had earned hundreds of thousands of British Pounds.
Actually, it would just turn into a puddle of urine anyway.
The young men exchanged looks, staring at Ye Qiu with eyes as if he were a monster, when a fashionable young woman walked over and said, "Irina, your friend is really something."
