“My brother is a very careful person; he won’t put all his eggs in one basket,” he analyzed confidently. “Besides, we all saw how physically capable Teacher Lin was, so my brother must have taken away large amounts of vouchers.”

After he said that, the rest of the people thought it made sense, and Lin Zhiluo's reaction was really strong.

Lin Zhiluo glared angrily at Jing Xinglan: "That's your brother, aren't you afraid he'll hold you accountable?"

Jing Xinglan gestured for the two ladies to hurry up and get started.

Qiao Zhirou stepped forward and grabbed Lin Zhiluo's hand, while Jian Wan took out a stack of vouchers. The solid feel of the vouchers made her smile involuntarily; she was about to strike it rich.

The two groups split the vouchers equally, but they still coveted Qi Zhiyang's vouchers. After putting them in their pockets, no one looked at them.

"Let's hurry, things could get complicated if my brother gets home."

Everyone ran away.

"You guys are really going too far," Lin Zhilu shouted.

After the people had walked away, she gave a peace sign to the live stream: "Plan works. I hope they are satisfied with the amount they received."

[Hahaha, I'm laughing so hard! What a brilliant combination!]

Xinglan thought he had gotten a good deal, but little did he know that this was a trap set by the authorities, just waiting for them to take the bait.

[Hopefully they'll be satisfied, hahaha, I wonder if they'll be so satisfied they'll cry.]

"Brother!" Jing Xinglan called from behind.

Qi Zhiyang curled the corners of his mouth slightly; it seemed that Lin Zhiluo's plan was going smoothly.

Qi Zhiyang turned to look at Jing Xinglan, and in the blink of an eye, he was surrounded by these four people.

Qi Zhiyang raised an eyebrow, then asked Jing Xinglan in a cold voice, "What are you doing?"

"Brother, we want your vouchers. Are you going to give them to us yourself, or do we have to do it ourselves?" Jing Xinglan asked with a grin.

Qi Zhiyang said very seriously, "The two of you can't beat me."

Jing Xinglan nodded: "Of course I know that. Aren't there two ladies here? I know you wouldn't lay a hand on a woman."

Qi Zhiyang turned to look at the two ladies, whose eyes were shining and whose cheeks were flushed with anticipation as they looked at him.

Qi Zhiyang glanced at his shameless younger brother, then at the two women behind him who were eyeing him covetously and eager to make their move.

He turned back to negotiate with Jing Xinglan: "Let me keep two copies."

"Brother, give them all to us." Jing Xinglan had always been taken advantage of by her brother, and this was the first time she had gotten the better deal. It might even be the first time in her life, so she was a little greedy.

Qi Zhiyang looked at him calmly: "You won't regret it?"

"Of course I don't regret it." There won't be another time like this where someone tries to steal his brother's vouchers, okay?

"Brother, don't hesitate, or the two ladies will try to snatch it."

Jing Xinglan knew that his brother disliked contact with strangers and hated being touched by strange women, so Jing Xinglan took advantage of this.

"Okay." Qi Zhiyang readily handed the remaining vouchers to Jing Xinglan.

Jing Xinglan's face lit up with boundless joy, then he looked left and right and said, "Let's hurry up and find a safe place to divide the spoils."

After saying that, the four of them disappeared from Qi Zhiyang's sight as if they were fleeing a famine.

"Foolish." After making his comment, Qi Zhiyang went to find Lin Zhiluo.

Lin Zhilu waved to him happily; their debt of over five thousand was finally gone.

"Let's find a place to hide before they can react."

"Master Lin, come here." Sun Han called out to Lin Zhiluo and beckoned to them mysteriously.

Lin Zhiluo and Qi Zhiyang exchanged a glance, and she whispered, "Did the production team say that we can't hide in the villagers' homes?"

"No." Lin Zhilu was certain that the production team had not mentioned this.

"Then let's go somewhere else to hide." Lin Zhiluo pulled Qi Zhiyang to Sun Han's house.

The photographer subconsciously lowered the angle of view, failing to capture Sun Han's face.

Before the production team arrived, they said that the villagers' faces could not be filmed; if their faces were filmed, a quarter's bonus would be deducted.

Therefore, extra attention should be paid to this when filming.

"Mr. Sun, what brings you here?" Lin Zhilu asked.

They entered the courtyard and found it to be exceptionally elegant, with a neat little vegetable garden and a small fishpond, surrounded by flowers and plants, making the courtyard very poetic.

“It’s not me, Li Yao, who’s looking for you; it’s Lao Zhou.” Sun Han took out his phone, which showed a chat with Lao Zhou.

"Hey, Lao Zhou, I've found Master Lin for you," Sun Han said.

Zhou Liang's tightly furrowed brows relaxed a little: "Master Lin, the paternity test results are in. You're right, that child is his son."

Lin Zhilu nodded: "It's not too late to get away now."

She could tell: "Your daughter only has feelings for him. If it had been two years later, no one could have saved her."

Zhou Tingting awkwardly touched her nose and said uncertainly, "I don't think so."

“Don’t underestimate the power of emotional control.” Lin Zhilu shook her head. “I’ve seen many outstanding women who are confident and passionate, but when they are controlled by their emotions, they initially doubt themselves, then reflect on themselves with unwavering conviction, until finally they are controlled by words. It’s a gradual process.”

Zhou Tingting suddenly remembered Gu Junli's criticism of her these days. From the time they started dating until now, Gu Junli had said many things that made her uncomfortable.

But Gu Junli immediately apologized when he saw that she looked unwell. However, those words had already taken deep root in Zhou Tingting's heart, just waiting to be irrigated and grow by the sap of evil.

Zhou Liang asked in a low voice, "Master Lin, I know this may be a bit presumptuous, but our two families need to discuss some things later, and I would like you to take a look at them for me. However, I don't want my daughter's affairs to be exposed."

Lin Zhilu thought for a moment and said, "Mr. Zhou, I'm recording a program right now. I'd like to ask the director for his opinion first. Please wait for me."

After she finished speaking, she walked out. The paparazzi immediately contacted Lin Zhiluo, and the production team readily agreed. Since it was a matter of privacy, they would naturally help, and besides, the people living here were not ordinary people.

Qi Zhiyang went out: "You stay here, I'm going out for a walk to see how Jing Xinglan and the others are dividing the spoils."

Lin Zhilu nodded.

Lin Zhiluo's camera also followed Qi Zhiyang.

Lin Zhilu looked at the father and daughter on the screen.

Zhou Liang showed the room to the guests; it was a private room in the hotel. He said, "After Gu Junli found out I was here, he kept urging my daughter and me to come out and discuss the wedding arrangements."

“I came here today to be honest with them: my daughter will not be with them, nor will she help them raise their son.”

Sun Han was a little angry: "Old Zhou, you went alone? What if they bullied you and Tingting?"

Zhou Liang shook his head: "How could I go alone? My bodyguards are waiting for me outside. If they bully me, the bodyguards will come in. Besides, there are surveillance cameras in this private room. This is my friend's hotel."

Sun Han was relieved to hear Zhou Liang say that.
