Male Lead: Seduce me quickly! Leng Yue: No, no, no, I can't do it!
Male Lead: I allow you to seduce me! Leng Yue: ... This generation's male lead is so hard to handle, I want to go ho...
What does it mean to be physically disabled but mentally strong? Leng Yue didn't quite understand it before, but now she can say she has a deep understanding of it!
Leng Yue gritted her teeth and fought against all sorts of difficulties and obstacles! Now, going out is more difficult for her than Tang Sanzang's journey to the West to obtain Buddhist scriptures!
Despite wearing a helmet and full protective gear, Leng Yue still felt that danger lurked everywhere.
Damn, she almost fell into the sewer! If she hadn't reacted quickly, she would have been washed away and fed to the fish!
Leng Yue was still shaken!
She originally wanted to visit the Nanshan Orphanage again, but when she saw a shop called One Yuan Detective Agency, she went inside.
"Hello, can you investigate anything?" Leng Yue got straight to the point as soon as she saw someone.
"Madam, we're not doing business right now," the man in black sitting on the sofa said decisively.
"Why?" Leng Yue was taken aback. "I can pay more."
"It's not about the money!" the man replied with a smile.
"What is that?" Leng Yue stopped reaching for her credit card.
"Fine, do you know of any detective agencies nearby? I'll go there." Leng Yue never liked to force people to do things they didn't want to do.
"Only one available here!" The man raised an eyebrow. Giving up already?
"Fine, I'll look somewhere else!" Leng Yue gritted her teeth, opened the door, and left.
The man took out his phone and made a call, hanging up after only a few words. Then he opened the door and called out to Leng Yue, "Madam, please wait a moment."
"Huh?" Leng Yue turned around and, splat, fell flat on her face again.
"Um, ma'am, are you alright?" The man looked like he was in pain; Leng Yue's fall had been quite severe.
"Um, it's nothing." Leng Yue stammered for a while before finally getting up from the ground.
She moved her hands and feet with practiced ease and could still move them! Then she tidied her clothes.
"I'm sorry, please excuse my poor appearance," Leng Yue said without batting an eye.
"What can I do for you?" Leng Yue appeared expressionless and calm. In reality, she was seething inside, gritting her teeth and thinking: "You'd better have something important to say, or I'll make you pay!"
"Oh, it's like this. Since you seem to have something urgent to attend to, I've decided to make an exception! I'll take your order." The man, who had been cold before, spoke politely.
"That's great! That way I won't have to go out and look anymore." Upon hearing this, Leng Yue immediately stopped arguing and happily walked back.
With a "click," the two stared at each other in disbelief for a few seconds.
Then Leng Yue yelled without any regard for her image, "Damn it, when are they going to stop torturing me? This is too much!"
The man paused for a moment, considered it for a while, and then hesitantly helped Leng Yue inside.
"Ouch!" Leng Yue grimaced in pain, unable to sit up at all!
"Why don't you lie down?" the man said, touching his nose somewhat embarrassed.
"Okay, I can do it myself." Leng Yue hummed and slowly lay down on the sofa.
"Hey boss, how did you suddenly come to this conclusion?" Leng Yue was in so much pain that she could only try to distract herself.
He asked random questions, trying to alleviate the pain.
"It's nothing, I just noticed you seemed to be in a hurry." The man chuckled. "Let me formally introduce myself. My name is Gu Yiyuan, which is the 'Yiyuan' in the shop's name, and 'Gu' in 'ancient'."
"My name is... Leng Yue." Leng Yue's face turned pale with pain, and her speech became slurred.
Actually, if it weren't for her terrible back pain, she really wanted to complain about the name Gu Yiyuan. If you didn't pronounce it as a whole, you'd really think it meant one yuan!
"Miss Leng, should we go to the hospital first?" Gu Yiyuan asked with concern when he saw Leng Yue's pale face.
"No need, no need, no rush." Leng Yue twisted her neck, took out her phone, and showed the photos inside.
"Please help me find this boy. He's missing. I haven't been able to find him, and I need your help." After Leng Yue finished speaking, sweat beaded on her forehead.
After Leng Yue agreed, Gu Yiyuan copied the photo and asked her a series of questions, including her age, name, and when she went missing.
Leng Yue only gave a rough estimate of her age and nickname; for everything else, she honestly replied that she didn't know.
Gu Yiyuan remained silent for a moment, but said nothing.
"What about the reward?" Leng Yue asked.
“A deposit of 30,000, and after we get the exact details, you’ll pay another 70,000, for a total of 100,000,” Gu Yiyuan replied.
Leng Yue: Are you robbing me?
But he said, "Deal. I'll pay any price as long as I can find it. Here's a credit card, no PIN, just swipe it yourself!"
The original owner was never short of money, in any of her lifetimes. Her previous life is another story; she was the ultimate winner, amassing a considerable fortune.
Later, the male protagonist was reborn and felt that there was no need to haggle over money with a dying person. Therefore, he has never been short of money for Leng Yue's expenses.
Although Leng Yue felt the pinch, she knew even more clearly that she couldn't take the money with her, so she had to spend it, even if it hurt!
Leng Yue, unusually extravagant, thought the way she tossed her credit card around was quite cool and stylish. Little did she notice that Gu Yiyuan's lips twitched.
What kind of situation is this? It's all the boss's money. Once the card is swiped, isn't it just the boss's money going from one pocket to another?
However, he is the boss now.
"Okay, Miss Leng, here's your deposit of 30,000. Here's your receipt." Gu Yiyuan adopted the demeanor of a waiter, and he did it quite convincingly.
"Can I leave now?" Leng Yue was in excruciating pain, and her expression began to contort uncontrollably.
“Yes, you can leave now.” Gu Yiyuan nodded, then asked, “Do you need me to call a car for you to go to the hospital?”
Leng Yue gave an OK sign, but she was speechless.
When the car arrived, Leng Yue got in, still thinking that once she recovered, she would definitely thank Gu Yiyuan properly. She never expected him to be so considerate.
Leng Yue went to the hospital, while Gu Yiyuan went to see Yuming.
"Boss, that's all." Gu Yiyuan reported everything to Yuming one by one.
"Is there anything I can do for you?" Gu Yiyuan finally spoke after calling the boss for a while without getting a response.
"Do it as agreed. Report to me first if you find anything." Yuming tapped his fingers lightly on the table, seemingly lost in thought again.
Gu Yiyuan was used to it; he knew that at this time, the boss was usually thinking about something.
Since he had nothing else to do, he wisely slipped out quietly.
"Injured again? Is it really related to me?" Yuming looked at his hand in confusion. "Was it like this in my past life? Why can't I remember it clearly all of a sudden?"
Looking out the window at the hurried pedestrians, Yuming suddenly felt a sense of unreality.
It's like Zhuangzi's dream of a butterfly, where the dream and reality are indistinguishable!
After much thought, Yuming decided to take the initiative: he planned to go to the hospital to see Leng Yue!

Yuming: That woman, she successfully caught my attention!
