Chapter 242 Lin Wan'er's Guide to Winning Over the Future Boss!
The captain's wife was completely dumbfounded; she hadn't expected Lin Wan'er to be so easily frightened.
Seeing the accusing looks from those around her, she was speechless and could only end up with the bad reputation of "bullying a patient" before slinking away in disgrace.
After this incident, Lin Wan'er's image as "gentle and kind" was firmly established at the educated youth settlement.
She began to deliberately "bump into" Qin Zheng, who had been released to work, time and time again.
She would "accidentally" drop a steamed bun at his feet, then run away in a panic.
She would also secretly hand him a handkerchief to wipe his sweat when everyone was criticizing him.
Once, the two were digging silt together by the river.
Lin Wan'er looked at the vast land in the distance, as if talking to herself, or as if speaking to Qin Zheng.
"I really don't understand why no one likes farming. I think the land is the most precious thing. In the future, it might become more and more important."
Qin Zheng suddenly stopped digging in the mud.
He suddenly turned his head and looked at the seemingly innocent and naive girl.
Will land become increasingly important?
For a rural girl who can't even read all the words to say this, it's simply unbelievable.
Ironically, this statement precisely struck a chord with his deepest, most secretive speculation about the future direction of policy.
This Lin Wan'er is definitely not an ordinary village girl!
From then on, Qin Zheng began to secretly communicate with Lin Wan'er.
He discovered that although this girl was not highly educated, her insights into the current situation were more profound than any of the educated youth in the team who considered themselves cultured.
She became his only confidante and his only hope in this dark land.
After gaining Qin Zheng's complete trust, on a quiet afternoon, Lin Wan'er unfolded a yellowed letter.
She wanted to write a letter to the Gu family, who were far away on Hainan Island.
In the letter, she contained not a single threat, nor a single word of resentment.
She described in an almost pious, repentant tone how she was reformed through labor in Northwest China and how she gained a "new life".
She thanked the country for giving her a chance to start anew and "sincerely" wished Su Yue and Gu Beichen a long and happy life together.
Between the lines, there is a sincere desire to repent and correct one's past mistakes.
But the familiar handwriting, coupled with the eerie content, exuded an indescribable sense of foreboding.
Two weeks later, on Hainan Island, at the Gu family's courtyard.
Su Yue had just finished feeding the twins and was about to go back to her room to rest.
Mother-in-law Zhang Huilan walked in with a letter in her hand, her face showing a strange expression.
"Yueyue, there is a letter from you, sent from the Northwest."
Su Yue took the letter and paused when she saw the familiar, delicate handwriting on the envelope, which carried a hint of deliberate flattery.
Lin Wan'er?
Didn't she already die at the educated youth settlement?
Su Yue opened the letter and read it quickly, skimming through it.
The letter slipped slowly from her fingertips.
This is not a summation.
It's not a confession either.
This is a declaration of war!
A person who should have died, an enemy she thought had long been eliminated, has returned to the game in such a bizarre way.
Moreover, she was carrying a trump card that no one knew about.
Su Yue slowly bent down and picked up the letter. The letter, filled with blessings, seemed to her as if every word was soaked in venomous blood.
She understood.
This Lin Wan'er has also been reborn.
The letter from the Northwest floated lightly onto the mahogany coffee table in the living room.
The letter, written in delicate handwriting, exuded a deliberate, ingratiating humility, and its contents were filled with repentance for past mistakes and best wishes for the future.
Zhang Huilan held the letter, her face full of surprise. "Has this Lin family girl really changed? Can labor reform in the Northwest really turn a person into a good person?"
Gu Zhengfeng and Huo Shouzheng exchanged a glance. Both of them had emerged from mountains of corpses and seas of blood, and their eyesight was incredibly sharp.
This abrupt change did not bring them comfort; instead, it made them sense something very unusual.
“There must be something fishy going on.” Huo Shouzhen picked up his teacup and gently blew away the foam. “It’s much more dangerous for someone who hates you to the core to suddenly come and wish you well than for her to come to your door and start cursing.”
Su Yue didn't speak. She simply picked up the letter again and gently traced the three characters "Lin Wan'er" with her fingertips.
“She didn’t change her personality.” Su Yue’s voice was very calm, so calm that there wasn’t a ripple in it.
"She's back."
You're back?
These three words stunned the elders present.
Su Yue looked up, meeting their puzzled gazes. "She has been reborn."
"Rebirth?!"
This word was more absurd than a fairy tale to Gu Zhengfeng and Huo Shouzheng, who lived in the 1970s.
The air in the living room seemed to freeze.
Su Yue slowly revealed her biggest secret, her speculation about "rebirth" and "time travel".
She didn't hide it, because she knew very well that the enemies ahead had gone beyond the scope of ordinary domestic power struggles and business battles.
That was a madman who also held the "script" and was even more familiar with the rules of this era than she was.
After listening to Su Yue's account, Gu Zhengfeng and Huo Shouzhen remained silent for a long time, their faces so solemn they could drip water.
They finally understood what a bizarre and dangerous war Su Yue was facing.
“I understand.” Gu Zhengfeng spoke first, looking at Su Yue with unconditional trust. “Yueyue, just tell us what you need us to do.”
A warm feeling swept through Su Yue's heart.
She immediately dialed the encrypted phone number leading to her uncle Chen Kai's office.
"Uncle, I need you to use all your resources to help me find someone."
"Lin Wan'er, an educated youth from the Red Flag Production Team in Northwest China. I need to know everyone she's met, every word she's said, and every action she's taken in the past few months. No detail can be overlooked."
Just as Su Yue laid out her first trap, an unexpected message came from Hong Kong.
Huo Shouxin's urgent call went directly to the Gu family study.
"Ah Yue, Liu Jianye from Baicaotang has a backup plan!"
Huo Shouxin's voice was urgent on the other end of the phone, "Our people found out that he had already bribed a third-rate overseas newspaper. They agreed that once your pharmaceutical factory's medicines were destroyed, they would immediately publish a front-page headline, slandering the factory for bankruptcy, shoddy workmanship, and even trying to pin the blame on you personally!"
This tactic of cutting off the enemy's supply lines is undeniably vicious.
Once the article is published, the reputation of the pharmaceutical and medical device manufacturers will be completely ruined overseas due to information asymmetry.
"Trying to wage a propaganda war?" Su Yue laughed instead of getting angry after hearing this.
There was a chilling undertone to that laughter.
She spoke calmly into the phone, "Second Uncle, I need your help with something. Could you contact the editors-in-chief of the Far East Daily and Sing Tao Weekly? I have some more explosive exclusive news that I'd like to send them."
Half an hour later, a detailed document personally compiled by Su Yue, detailing how the brothers Liu Jianjun and Liu Jianye went from being leaders of a state-owned pharmaceutical factory to becoming commercial spies, and ultimately colluding with unknown overseas forces to sabotage the country's military production, along with irrefutable evidence, was sent to Hong Kong via encrypted telegram.
