Watching Lin Qian's departing figure, Zhao Yu's eyes were filled with complex emotions. His brows were tightly furrowed, and a trace of pain and helplessness flickered in his eyes. A feeling of oppression spread through his chest, making him feel incredibly suffocated. He thought sadly, "Lin Qian is so cold to me; I've truly disappointed her. I really have let her down." However, the thought of Su Yao filled him with conflict and struggle. He sighed inwardly, "Su Yao is, after all, my childhood friend. I can't just stand by and watch her fall into trouble without doing anything."
Su Yao's gaze followed Zhao Yu intently. When she saw the way Zhao Yu looked at Lin Qian, a burning jealousy flared within her. Her eyes gleamed with envy, and she bit her lip tightly. She thought fiercely, "Why is Zhao Yu always so hung up on Lin Qian? What do I lack compared to her?" At the same time, she felt immense anxiety about her future. She feared losing Zhao Yu, and secretly resolved, "I must make Zhao Yu completely forget Lin Qian, and belong only to me."
Zhao Yu took a deep breath, trying to calm the turmoil in his heart. He turned to look at Su Yao, his eyes filled with determination, and said, "Su Yao, let's go to the supply and marketing cooperative first. No matter what, we still need to prepare a gift to apologize to Lin Qian."
Hearing Zhao Yu's words, Su Yao was dissatisfied, but she still nodded. A hint of reluctance flashed in her eyes, but she quickly concealed it and said softly, "Okay, I'll listen to you, Brother Zhao Yu." However, deep in her heart, she was plotting how to sabotage Zhao Yu's plan to apologize to Lin Qian.
003 told Lin Qian about Zhao Yu's behavior after she left. 003 began to describe it with exaggerated gestures: "Host, after you left, Zhao Yu's face instantly turned incredibly gloomy. His brows furrowed tightly, forming a deep '川' shape, and his eyes were filled with loss and pain, as if the whole world had collapsed. His lips trembled slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but couldn't utter a single word. He looked like he had been abandoned by the whole world, heartbroken!" 003 mimicked Zhao Yu's expressions and demeanor as she spoke, her comical performance making Lin Qian laugh, but her laughter carried a hint of mockery.
Lin Qian listened to 003's description with a disdainful expression, and snorted coldly, "He brought this on himself. Did he think that by putting on this pitiful act, I would soften his heart? He's dreaming!" Her eyes were filled with indifference and disgust.
003 continued, "And then there's Su Yao, her eyes are truly terrifyingly sinister! Her eyes are narrowed to slits, revealing a deep-seated jealousy and resentment. That gaze is like a sharp knife, as if she wants to tear people to pieces. The corners of her mouth are slightly upturned, hanging a sinister smile that sends chills down your spine." As 003 spoke, she made a frightened expression, and her body involuntarily trembled slightly.
The two began to complain about Zhao Yu's behavior. Lin Qian said angrily, "This Zhao Yu, he really thinks he's something. Does he think I abandoned him? It's utterly ridiculous! With his wavering attitude, he should have known this would happen." Her expression was furious, her eyes seemingly spitting fire.
003 chimed in, "Exactly, exactly! Host, you're absolutely right! Zhao Yu is a complete scumbag, he's not worth getting angry over." 003's face was also filled with dissatisfaction towards Zhao Yu.
Lin Qian added, "And that Su Yao, all she does is stir up trouble, she's incredibly malicious. This incident hasn't taught her a lesson yet, it seems she won't learn her lesson until she's faced with the consequences!"
003 said to Lin Qian, "Host, this Su Yao might be up to something again. We need to be careful." A hint of worry was in 003's eyes.
Lin Qian's eyes were firm, and the corners of her mouth turned up slightly, revealing a confident smile. She said, "Let's do it. Let's see who can outsmart whom. I, Lin Qian, am not afraid of her!" Her expression was full of confidence and decisiveness.
003 said to the host, "Su Yao has suffered so many losses, why doesn't she learn her lesson?" 003 frowned, looking puzzled. His eyes gleamed with confusion.
Lin Qian said nonchalantly, "Some people are like that, never satisfied, always thinking they can control everything. Does she think I'm afraid of her? She's sorely mistaken. This time, I'm going to show her what I'm capable of!" A sharp glint flashed in Lin Qian's eyes, as if she was ready to meet the challenge.
Arriving at the entrance of the recycling station, Lin Qian's face lit up with a bright smile as she greeted the gatekeeper warmly, "Good morning, sir! I've come to see if there are any newspapers." Her eyes were bright and full of anticipation.
The old gatekeeper, sitting on a chair by the door, looked up when he heard Lin Qian's voice. A hint of doubt flickered in his eyes. This girl had come to buy newspapers again. Last time, she seemed to have found something good here, but he had no proof. The old man stared at Lin Qian for a while before smiling and replying, "Girl, you're here! Come in!" The old man's face was covered with wrinkles, but his smile was exceptionally kind and friendly, though his eyes still held a trace of inquiry.
After thanking her, Lin Qian quickly walked into the scrap yard. Her steps were light, as if she were impatient. Once inside, she silently said to 003, "003, keep an eye out for anything useful to me."
003 quickly began scanning the scrap yard. Lin Qian, seemingly casually rummaging through the pile of newspapers, was actually keeping a close eye on her surroundings. Her fingers deftly turned the scraps of paper, her expression serious and focused. She thought to herself, "I'll have to be more careful this time; I might find something big."
