"During the Great Evacuation from Planet Fifteen, Yu Wei took all the base's weapons, and even a large number of children and young adults with him."

Although the war had left few weapons, Yu Wei still cunningly took everything that was left, not even leaving behind the spent bullet casings.

Although the rebels captured the fifteenth planet, they only obtained an empty shell with no weapons, no food, and no population; it was utterly desolate.

Yu Wei knew very well that fighting a war required a constant supply of people, so he took away all the able-bodied men and children, cutting off the rebels' supply lines.

"Although the Zhou family has provided enough resources, weapons can't fill an empty stomach. Your logistics have been having a tough time lately." Seeing Chu Sheng's increasingly dark face, Zhou Siyu laughed and continued to fan the flames: "Many of your people have died, and you can no longer obtain core secrets, so you want to pull me onto your ship, right?"

His company has a wide range of businesses, including not only financial investment and real estate, but also food manufacturing plants, pharmaceutical plants, and plants that manufacture daily necessities.

Chu Sheng, however, had nothing but money.

He could provide the rebels with large sums of money, but the Alliance controlled the core agricultural production area—the Second Sector.

Before the outbreak of the Fifteenth Planet War, the rebels could secretly sell some of their reserves by placing people inside the Alliance, but since Yu Wei's reorganization, no one has dared to touch the Alliance's reserves.

Zhou Siyu had been wavering between the alliance and the rebels, intending to use the opportunity to sow discord between Yu Wei and Zhou Siyu, but he did not expect that the two would reconcile so quickly.

Zhou Siyu hates being deceived the most, and Chu Sheng and his group's actions were undoubtedly like dancing in his minefield.

Ironically, Chu Sheng was completely oblivious. In his eyes, Zhou Siyu was still that arrogant, conceited, and shallow young man.

The sharp gaze seemed to rip open his heart, and Chu Sheng suddenly felt a chill run down his spine. He took a sip of water to suppress his surprise.

When did Zhou Siyu's aura become so strong?

"What do you want me to do? Provide information, buy food, steal weapons from the armory, what else? Let me think..." Zhou Siyu rested her chin on her hand, smiling as she looked at Qin Ye, "Perhaps you also need me to kill Yu Wei when necessary."

It didn't feel good to have your thoughts guessed. Chu Sheng slammed down his cup and looked up at the smiling person across from him.

"I'm very curious, what exactly did Yu Wei do to make you so afraid?" Zhou Siyu gently shook the glass in her hand, the clear water splashing against the glass and then sliding down the side of the glass.

“You don’t need to know that,” Chu Sheng said, gripping his cup. “You just need to…”

"You've broken your leg and you still haven't learned your lesson. You're still the same as before." Zhou Siyu scoffed, her phoenix eyes full of contempt. "I haven't even agreed yet, and you're already assigning tasks?" She gently placed the glass on the table, a few drops of water splashing onto it. Zhou Siyu casually picked up a tissue and wiped the water off her hands. "Looks like breaking a leg hasn't taught you a lesson at all."

"What I need, you can't give me." Zhou Siyu crossed her legs and waved her hand. "Get lost, I don't want to fight here."

"Zhou Siyu!"

Chu Sheng slammed his hand on the table and stood up, making quite a commotion, which drew the attention of everyone eating.

Zhou Siyu was too lazy to continue the conversation with him. She slowly straightened her clothes, stood up, and casually removed the dagger pressed against her waist.

“President Chu doesn’t seem to have figured out the situation yet.” Zhou Siyu flicked non-existent dust off his shoulders and sleeves, picked up his coat from the chair, and said, “Now it’s you who’s begging me, not me begging you.”

After saying that, before Chu Sheng could speak, he said in the tone of a leader reprimanding his subordinate, "I want to see your attitude, not your brute force."

When Zhou Siyu walked up to Chu Sheng, he turned his head and looked down at Chu Sheng with a smile on his lips: "Besides, you may not be able to beat me in terms of brute strength."

As he strode out of Chu Sheng's sight, the pent-up anger in his heart instantly dissipated, and he felt much lighter.

That old bastard Chu Sheng always acts so high and mighty, like everyone else is trash. I've wanted to beat him up for ages.

Back then, for the sake of business and for Chu Yunmu, I suffered a lot at his hands. Today, I can finally stand up straight.

Zhou Siyu stood under the utility pole at the store entrance for a while, smiling as she watched the figure walk through the crowd.

"Why didn't you wait inside? It's so cold outside, and you're not even wearing any clothes." Yu Wei picked up his coat and draped it over Zhou Siyu's shoulders. He took Zhou Siyu's hand, breathed on it a few times, and pulled out a pair of gloves from his pocket. He then grabbed Zhou Siyu's hand and said, "Try them on and see if they fit."

"You've been gone so long just buying gloves, aren't you afraid I'll sneak away?"

Zhou Siyu casually mentioned that Yu Wei paused for a few seconds before quickly resuming his actions and continuing to put gloves on Zhou Siyu: "Don't worry, I've put a locator on you."

"You're so honest."

"When have I ever lied to you?" The gloves fit perfectly, and Yu Wei smiled and looked up, her eyes full of pride. "I have such good taste, they fit perfectly."

"Tch, it's clearly my hands that are better looking." Zhou Siyu put his hands into Yu Wei's pockets. "Come on, President Zhou will take you shopping."

He didn't ask Yu Wei what he had just done, but of course, he was willing to listen if Yu Wei wanted to tell him.

He didn't know how much of his conversation with Chu Sheng had been overheard, but he knew that Yu Wei trusted him, and he trusted that Yu Wei wouldn't betray him, and that was enough.

These past few days he has also realized that Yu Wei's tough attitude is only directed at enemies; he remains gentle towards his own people.

Besides, Yu Wei needs him now and cannot abandon him to seek another partner.

Therefore, whether as a partner or a business partner, he is the best choice for Yu Wei.

His confidence stemmed not from Yu Wei's love for him, but from his ability to make Yu Wei unable to leave him and forced to stay by his side.
