She walked to Xu Keke's sofa with a gentle smile, intending to help her up. Xu Keke responded with a soft "Ouch," saying, "Madam, please be gentle."
"Did you pinch too hard?" Yan Shuo's eyes widened, revealing his true murderous aura, which frightened Lin Meijuan into hurriedly letting go, indicating that he hadn't touched her.
"I'll carry my elder sister up." Seeing that Du Bingtian was about to get angry again, Du Jue walked out from the side and squatted down.
Xu Keke really wanted to say no, but she didn't want Lin Meijuan to help her. She simply didn't like that woman.
Xu Keke's hand was already about to touch Du Jue when Yan Shuo, for some unknown reason, suddenly scooped her up from the sofa. He then winked at Du Wei, "Which room does your older sister stay in?"
Du Wei hesitated for a moment, but was swayed by Yan Shuo's determined gaze and resigned himself to leading the way.
Under the astonished gazes of the Du family, Yan Shuo carried Xu Keke and followed Du Wei directly to the second floor.
Nestled in this man's arms, Xu Keke's mind was racing. Although it was agreed that it was all an act for the Du family, wasn't this going a bit too far?
Yan Shuo released her because he wanted her to steal something from Li Dakang. To put it bluntly, it was the cloth bag she had thrown off the train that day.
If Xu Keke had known it would end this way, she definitely wouldn't have actually thrown it down that day. She was only doing it to avenge the original owner of this body and to play a trick on the person who had wronged her.
She hadn't expected the other party to be Su Wan, and that Su Wan would be so relentless. Especially after hearing that Su Wan had actually tried to shoot her at the shooting range, Xu Keke really felt that this woman was somewhat mentally unstable.
She knew it was dangerous to carry that thing, yet she handed it to the stranger next to her. Her attempt to frame him failed, and she became enraged afterwards.
She did it intentionally, but with most people, it's just a subconscious reaction. She killed someone too, didn't she?
This Yan Shuo is no good either. He couldn't find what he wanted, so he asked me to find it for him. He said he could secretly arrest Su Wan, but he couldn't touch Li Dakang right now.
The message is simple: either help him steal, or stay locked up inside.
Xu Keke verbally agreed, but in her heart she was thinking that as long as the task was completed, everything else was none of her business.
She made two requests that Yan Shuo found somewhat absurd. One was to ask him to help her find the Du family's former butler. The other was to have him act in a play for her; she wanted to use him as a powerful patron.
Xu Keke's idea was simply to have him stand to the side and genuinely play the role of a tree. She never expected that this guy would become so addicted to acting, not only adding more scenes but also showcasing his acting skills.
