Shen Baiyan asked, "How exactly do we do it?"
Gu Chu said, "It is most appropriate for me to approach Huang Qijin."
"no!"
"no!"
Jiang Jinyu and Su Wan spoke in unison to stop them.
Su Wan said, "This matter started because of me, so I should step in."
"Can't!"
"no!"
Shen Baiyan and Gu Chu refused almost simultaneously.
Su Wan asked, "Why?"
Gu Chu explained, "Wanwan, Huang Jianhan has his eye on you and has naturally investigated your background and learned about you. If you step in, things will probably not be so easy to accomplish, and it will also bring you greater danger."
Shen Baiyan nodded: "Yes."
Jiang Jinyu didn't want Gu Chu to take any risks, because he was still counting on Gu Chu, this 'lucky goddess,' to continue to favor him in the future.
He said, "Forget it, I'll handle this."
Shen Baiyan looked at him with disdain: "You?"
Gu Chu said, "You're even less capable!"
Jiang Jinyu's actions were too targeted; I fear he might do more harm than good.
Seeing Gu Chu's lack of trust in him, Jiang Jinyu looked at her meaningfully and teased, "Whether I can do it or not, why don't you try and see?"
Gu Chu understood his unspoken meaning and was immediately both angry and anxious: "You...!"
Jiang Jinyu didn't want to go too far, so he said truthfully, "Alright, I'll find someone who's more suitable than either of you."
Only then did the group realize that Jiang Jinyu wanted to find someone to take action for him.
"Then it's decided!"
Gu Chu immediately felt as if a stone had been lifted from her chest, and she felt much lighter.
Shen Baiyan added, "I think we can also put our efforts into other areas."
Su Wan looked at him curiously: "Shen Baiyan, what are your thoughts?"
Shen Baiyan pondered: "Huang Jianhan has always wanted to achieve something to succeed as mayor, so much so that he resorted to desperate measures and cooperated with the Japanese. Now that the Qi Group has sold the land to the Japanese, if we attribute this to Huang Jianhan under the guise of 'attracting investment,' and let the whole city know about Huang Jianhan's 'great achievements,' then when it is revealed that the project he introduced is the 'China-Japan Friendship Park,' you can imagine how the citizens will react."
Su Wan smiled and gave Shen Baiyan a thumbs-up in admiration: "Brilliant!"
Gu Chu agreed: "That's right!"
Jiang Jinyu was jealous: "That's vicious!"
Su Wan thought of something and said, "However, regarding the 'learning machine' issue, I want to save that father and son."
Gu Chu advised, "Wanwan, this is not the time for you to be a saint. If this doesn't happen, what's the point of us doing this?"
Su Wan explained, "At first, what I meant was, it's enough to let things happen halfway; people don't necessarily have to die!"
As she spoke, she leaned closer to Gu Chu and whispered in her ear, "Otherwise, what's the point of your rebirth? Isn't it to change more bad outcomes?"
Then, in her normal voice, she said, "For example, the wrongful deaths of that father and son?"
Gu Chu nodded after hearing Su Wan's words: "Yes, I understand. I agree with your approach."
Shen Baiyan and Jiang Jinyu watched them whispering to each other with great curiosity.
Seeing Shen Baiyan and Jiang Jinyu's puzzled expressions, Su Wan explained, "It's like this, things are still as planned before, but on that day, Chu Chu and I will go to the scene to try to make him cause trouble for the father and son while keeping their lives. As for what happens after that, it's up to you."
It was past 5 p.m. when they left the Platinum Villa. Shen Baiyan invited Su Wan and Gu Chu to come down for dinner, but they declined.
Seeing that Su Wan was about to go back with Gu Chu in Jiang Jinyu's car, Shen Baiyan offered to take Su Wan back. Su Wan was about to refuse when Jiang Jinyu forcibly pulled Gu Chu into the car and then sped away.
"Jiang Jinyu, what are you doing!" Gu Chu snapped out of her rage.
Jiang Jinyu turned to look at her: "I put aside my work to spend the whole afternoon with you today, it's not too much for you to treat me to a meal, is it?"
Gu Chu glared at him: "Wanwan hasn't gotten on the bus yet!"
Jiang Jinyu said, "I don't like being disturbed."
Gu Chu said angrily, "You better pray that Wanwan will be alright!"
Shen Baiyan watched the car disappear into the distance and a smile crept onto his face. For the first time, he felt that Jiang Jinyu was a person.
"It seems they don't want you to bother them."
Su Wan was also taken aback by this scene, and couldn't help but tease Shen Baiyan, who looked smug, "Isn't your white moonlight coming to you?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Baiyan's phone rang.
"Haha, my words have come true." Su Wan laughed and turned to leave.
"What's wrong?"
Shen Baiyan frowned as he answered the phone, but his gaze fell on Su Wan as she left.
Qiao Xingyu asked softly, "Bai Yan, are you busy?"
Shen Baiyan said impatiently, "Busy!"
Qiao Xingyu: "..."
Seeing no response from the other end, Shen Baiyan said, "I'll come see you tomorrow."
After saying that, he hung up the phone and chased after Su Wan.
"Get in the car!"
Shen Baiyan bent down, hoisted Su Wan onto his shoulder, and shoved her into the passenger seat with a 'bang' before locking the door.
"Where do you live?" Shen Baiyan turned to look at her.
Su Wan looked straight ahead: "Lijing Apartment."
Shen Baiyan smiled and asked, "The Qi family's properties?"
Su Wan lied: "It was rented."
Shen Baiyan then asked, "How's business at the store?"
Su Wan, sparing with words, said, "No, nobody will believe me."
Shen Baiyan said, "That's for sure."
Su Wan looked at him with displeasure: "You seem quite smug?"
Shen Baiyan didn't answer her, but said instead, "Wouldn't a million a month be better than being my bed partner?"
