Gongsun Lin's expression changed slightly, and she chuckled dryly a few times, "So you picked it up. Why didn't you tell me sooner?"

"Just kidding, Catherine won't be angry, will she?" Bian Yujing's smile deepened, her expression innocent.

Tia laughed, "Catherine isn't that petty, she won't be angry. Let's hurry, or we'll be too late."

"Oh... okay..."

Gongsun Lin couldn't think of any other excuses for a moment. Making it too obvious would arouse Bian Yujing's suspicion. She could only think of a way on the way. If all else failed, she would protect Tiya. Looking at this skinny, freakish guy, he shouldn't be very strong. She was sure she could protect Tiya.

The car slowly drove out of the parking lot. Bian Yujing told Gongsun Lin where he lived. Gongsun Lin had driven all over the city and had already figured out the city's routes. She also knew very well where Bian Yujing lived. It was a high-end villa community, not in the city center, but in the newly developed eastern part of the city.

"Luckily it's not rush hour, I'll be there in ten minutes, don't worry!"

Gongsun Lin floored the accelerator, driving fast and steadily. Bian Yujing sat in the passenger seat giving directions, Tiya sat in the back, and Ye Qingqing and Lu Mo's car followed behind, maintaining a distance of at least 100 meters.

My phone rang again; it was Bian Yujing again.

“I’ll be there in fifteen minutes… What? You’ve already left? Didn’t you say fifteen minutes? You’re kidding me…”

Bian Yujing's voice gradually rose, and his expression turned ugly as he suppressed his anger.

Gongsun Lin sneered inwardly. He was putting on quite a show. She was certain that both the previous and current phone calls were orchestrated by this pervert himself. There were no investors involved, and there was no 15-minute time limit. It was just an excuse to get her to drive someone.

Bian Yujing hung up the phone, looking dejected. Gongsun Lin deliberately asked, "What happened?"

"The investor said he had something to do and left. He didn't mention the experiment or the investment at all. I guess he won't be putting any more money in," Bian Yujing said with a wry smile, looking rather pitiful.

Women are inherently weak, but they are also the most sympathetic to the weak, especially weak men, who can easily make women lower their guard. Bian Yujing knew this well, so he made full use of this in every operation, and it worked every time.

Tia was indignant. "That person is terrible. He has no integrity whatsoever. Even if there was no contract, he shouldn't do this. What are you going to do?"

"It's alright, I still have some savings, enough to finish the experiment. I've been working on this experiment for three years, and I won't give up easily."

A weak yet self-reliant man evokes both respect and pity in a woman, and even the most guarded heart will crumble before him.

At this moment, Tia felt both admiration and sympathy for Bian Yujing, and even planned to give him some money to help him complete his experiment.

"I'll get off here, so as not to delay your meal," Bian Yujing suggested.

“You can’t get a taxi here. It will take you at least half an hour to walk. We don’t need to worry about the time for dinner.” Tia’s reaction was exactly what Bian Yujing expected. He was secretly pleased with himself. Women are just that stupid.

"Let's go all the way and visit your lab while we're at it. Is that alright?" Gongsun Lin asked deliberately.

Bian Yujing smiled and said, "Of course, it would be my honor."

The car had arrived at the residential area. Gongsun Lin hesitated for a moment, but still drove into the area.

She will definitely be able to protect Tiya, and Ye Qingqing will definitely call Lu Mo to catch up. She just needs to stall for time.
