"I know." Ye Sijue's answer surprised Gu Momo slightly, a hint of astonishment flashing in her eyes.

That night, Si Jue suddenly seemed like a completely different person, so calm that it was unbelievable.

Gu Momo suspected he had ulterior motives, and unconsciously tightened her grip on the gun hidden under the sofa cushion, continuing to try to distract him, "Since you already know, what are you doing here? Does that mean you haven't given up yet?"

"Asking me to give her up is easier said than done." Ye Sijue raised his eyes, and this was the first time Gu Momo had seen humility in his eyes. The humility was so profound that it was almost unbearable.

She completely let her guard down, took a deep breath, and advised, "I advise you to give up. Some things, once they happen, can never be undone."

"You don't understand. For me, Fuying is like a light in my life. I can't live without this light." Ye Sijue expressed his truest feelings, and as he spoke, he inexplicably gave a bitter smile.

"This feeling is really strange. I never thought I would be telling you these things one day."

"I never expected you to come to me with these words." Gu Momo had no complaints about Ye Sijue, but he was still living in hatred because of his brother's death and was full of hostility towards her.

“Gu Momo, whether you believe it or not, I truly love Fu Ying. I would give anything for her. I know she will never forgive me, and I no longer expect her to. I just hope to stay by her side silently, protecting her safety, which is also a way of making up for all the absurd things I did to her before. I don't need your understanding; I only ask that you not expose me, and not tell Fu Ying that I'm right beside her.” Ye Sijue's lips curled slightly. “With her carefree personality, as long as you don't say anything, she won't find out about me.”

"Is that really what you think?"

Ye Sijue said with unwavering conviction, “It is absolutely true. If you want me to swear an oath, I can swear it with everything I have.”

"No need." Gu Momo waved her hand. "This is between the two of you. I can't interfere. As long as you can manage not to disturb Fuying's life, the rest is up to you."

A complex emotion surfaced in Ye Sijue's eyes. He never expected that one day his relationship with Gu Momo would undergo a subtle change because of Fu Ying.

"Thank you. I'll repay the favor I owe you. If you ever need any help in the future, just let me know."

Gu Momo smiled and shook her head, "I'll be grateful if you don't cause me any trouble."

Based on Fu Ying's findings, Gu Momo began investigating the F country's arms factory, and the matter soon yielded results.

Gu Momo contacted the arsenal through a raw material supply company under the SK Group and secured an opportunity for business negotiations.

"Boss, they've replied to us, inviting me to F country next Wednesday for negotiations."

Gu Momo sat in front of her computer, hearing Li Mo's excited voice on the other end of the phone, and at the same time finding the email he had forwarded to her in her inbox—

"We are aware of your company's cooperation plans and cordially invite you to visit our factory next Wednesday for inspection and exchange, and to discuss the contents of the agreement."

"Getting a negotiation opportunity isn't necessarily a good thing." Gu Momo looked at the other party's reply and, for some reason, felt that something was off.

Sending the raw material supply company to negotiate was just a pretext. It was obvious that the arsenal did not lack raw material supplies, but the other party agreed to the demands so readily, as if they had laid a trap for us to surrender.

"Sister Momo, do you think this might be a trap?" Fu Ying pressed.

Gu Momo's expression was solemn. "Although I can't quite put my finger on why, I just feel that their invitation is too urgent. Li Mo, go and investigate whether the arsenal is experiencing a raw material supply crisis recently."

"We've found out who the boss is. A company that used to supply them with raw materials has been investigated for tax issues and seems to have been ordered to suspend operations recently."

“That’s not surprising. They must be in a hurry to deliver the goods, but they don’t have any raw material suppliers.” Gu Momo was slightly relieved. “Li Mo, get ready. We’ll fly to F country next Wednesday.”

"Okay, boss."

Seeing that Gu Momo hadn't mentioned her name, Fu Ying hurriedly asked, "Sister Momo, what about me! I want you to come with me too."

"You stay here and keep an eye on the Triangle Bar. Contact Li Mo immediately if anything happens." Gu Momo reached out and gently pinched her nose. "This bar must be destroyed as soon as possible. However, you and Li Mo have already been recognized. If you need to investigate further, be sure to disguise yourself and have the Night Night Alliance members go with you. As soon as you get any useful evidence, call the police immediately. Don't linger, understand?"

Fuying originally wanted to go to F country, but then she thought about the many girls who were locked up in the Triangle Bar. If they were delayed for even a day, they would be in greater danger. Perhaps splitting up with Sister Momo would be a faster way to resolve these matters.

"Okay, Sister Momo, then you must be careful when you go to F country," Fuying reminded her.

Don't worry. You need to take good care of yourself too.

Late at night, Fu Ying put on the human skin mask that Gu Momo had made for her and reappeared at the Triangle Bar as Lillian.

Because Li Mo and Ye Sijue accompanied Gu Momo to F country, before they left, they specially asked Mo Feng, a stranger, to come with Fu Ying. Several of Mingye Alliance's subordinates also accompanied Fu Ying to protect her.

"Fuying, the moment you sat down here, every man around us had their eyes on you. We've practically become the center of attention," Mo Feng whispered in her ear.
