Yu Suiwan sank lazily into the sofa, his eyelids drooping and half-closed, looking complicated and indifferent.

Meng Shu had been with her for so many years and knew her habits, so he didn't disturb her and just drank tea quietly.

The room was completely silent, with only the faint sounds of rain, music and wind to be heard.

After a long while, Yu Suiwan raised his eyelids and said, "Ashu, go check Lu Zhong's whereabouts during this period."

She drank the tea in the cup and reminded him, "Lu Zhong, don't worry about investigating. As long as you don't touch Lu Zhan, the Lu family won't find out."

She was sure that the jade ring had been embezzled by Lu Zhong in the past ten years, so the Lu family had never set their sights on her, but now Lu Zhan was back.

Yu Suiwan thought of Lu Zhan's difficult personality and still felt a little worried.

If something happened to Lu Zhong, such as being put in solitary confinement or deprived of his rights, it would mean that Yuhuan's affair had been exposed, and Lu Zhan would definitely be able to get the 10 million into Meng Shu's hands.

Her face was solemn as she speculated about the power she might expose. Based on her understanding of Lu Zhan, if the matter was exposed, the Lu family would definitely not allow her to develop so smoothly.

Yu Suiwan's eyes flashed coldly: "Ashu, you should keep a close eye on the twilight scene recently."

Although Lu Zhan disdains to do anything shady behind the scenes, his moves are cunning and we have to be on guard against him.

Meng Shu sipped his tea and saw that she looked unusually serious. He knew that someone was coming to look for her. He said, "Don't worry. I'm watching. There won't be any trouble."

He suddenly thought of something else and said, "Oh, by the way, Aunt Zhao said that the kid from the Hong family seems to be interested in Jiang Luanmin's illegitimate daughter. Do you want to ask the bodyguards to help you at school?"

Yu Suiwan: "No, I have arrangements at school."

They are just a few annoying mice. I didn’t mind playing with them, but now that Lu Zhan is a time bomb, I’d better end it quickly.

"I've taken a fancy to a boxing gym near the entrance of Qiming School. If you have time next week, can you help me buy it?"

Meng Shu was a little surprised: "You're in such a hurry? Are you going to set up the store and open it next week?"

"Well, let's open it before the weekend and send someone in charge to look after it."

Meng Shu lowered his head and laughed jokingly: "If A'Dun knew that you won his championship and wanted to take his job, he would probably come to me to make trouble again."

Speaking of his coach, Yu Suiwan thought of the frustrated yet proud look in his eyes when he was beaten down by him, and a smile flickered in his eyes:

"Well, then please ask Master Atton to help supervise the work personally. You can ask for any salary you want. By the way, tell him that I found him a student with great potential."

Meng Shu looked at her lovingly and said, "When the boxing gym is bought, do you want me to go practice with you?"

Yu Suiwan's eyes drifted in mid-air, and as he thought of something, he shook his head slightly, a dark edge hidden in his eyes, and said softly, "No need, soon, a target will be delivered to our door."

Meng Shu looked at her half-closed expression like a little fox, exactly the same as when she stood in front of him ten years ago.

Well, it looks like someone is going to be in trouble.

Yu Suiwan: "Why hasn't Xiaoxue contacted me these days? Do you know what's going on over there?"

There has been less message bombardment on WeChat recently, which has made her feel uncomfortable.

Mentioning Meng Xueyao, Meng Shu smiled and shook his head: "Recently, her father forced her to go to the manor for training. The last time she sent me a message complaining about the taste of white people's food, her phone must have been discovered and confiscated recently."

Yu Suiwan couldn't help laughing: "So that's how it is."

As the two were talking, there was a knock on the door of the private room. The blond man looked helpless, holding the ginger tea in his hand.

"Boss, Steve is a bartender. Isn't it a waste of his talent to ask him to give up so many customers to make ginger tea?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the girl in black sitting in the middle of the sofa.

The tone changed and he strode over: "Hey, it turns out that the young lady is here."

He bent down, placing the plate in his hand close to his chest with great gentlemanly courtesy, and extended his other hand: "It is my honor to serve the beautiful young lady."

Yu Suiwan smiled and extended her hand. Alger politely took it and kissed her thumb.

"Thank you, Alger."

Meng Shu reached out and took his ginger tea. A cold light flashed on his charming face as he said sinisterly, "Alger, you don't want this hand anymore, do you?"

Alger shrugged, winked at Yu Suiwan, and then looked at his boss:

"Boss, I just said hello, why are you so angry? Miss won't mind, right?

Meng Shu handed the ginger tea to Yu Suiwan, watched her drink it, and signaled with his eyes that the person who was in the way should leave quickly.

Alger walked out the door and made a heart shape with his hands to Yu Suiwan before leaving.

It's a good deal. If Steve knew that the girl was coming tonight, he would definitely regret it, hahahaha.

His tail was almost raised as he swipe his card and go downstairs.

The lively music instantly penetrated his eardrums. Alger felt a little uncomfortable coming out of the quiet environment. He picked his ears and walked towards the bartender's bar with dancing steps.

-

It was almost time, so Meng Shu sent Yu Suiwan back to Jiang's house.

Yu Suiwan sat in the passenger seat, looking up at the colorful night view outside the window.

The brilliant light shone through the car window onto the girl's delicate face, covering up her cold and sharp temperament and revealing the brightness of a fifteen or sixteen-year-old.

Meng Shu turned the steering wheel and suddenly asked, "Is Ah Wan not moving into the Jiang family because of Yu Xiao?"

Yu Suiwan leaned on the passenger seat and admitted, "Yes, it's for my brother."

The two have known each other for ten years. Meng Shu knows that she is bright and sharp, and looks indifferent, but is actually very protective of her people. Once someone is included in her protection circle, he will give in to the greatest interests for the sake of the person she wants to protect.

And Yu Xiao seemed to be at the center of her protection circle.

Even though she knew that they had already grasped the lifeline of the Jiang family and that if they devoured the Jiang family, their power would be able to compete with the three major families in Beijing, she never took action.

For Yu Xiao, the man who was not related to her by blood but whom she was lucky enough to call brother.

Her voice was incredibly clear in the silent carriage: "Brother needs the Jiang family. Wait a few more years until he's fully grown, then take action."

Meng Shu smiled silently, but his gorgeous features revealed a sense of dejection: "Lu Zhan is back. If we marry into either the Gu or Bai family, our plans will become much more passive."

He didn't say it explicitly, but Yu Suiwan understood.

Once they get married, the power relationship between the three major families in Beijing will be even closer. If they want to get a share of the cake, they may not even have the right to sit at the table.

Her body stiffened for a moment, but only for a moment before returning to normal. She turned her head to look over, her eyebrows and eyes filled with coldness:

"In recent years, there will be no hostess in the Lu family."

In fact, Meng Shu's guess was correct. In his previous life, Lu Zhan did marry into the Bai family, but that was many years later. The Lu family's foundation was not yet established, and Lu Zhan would not accept the marriage.

Meng Shu looked at her in surprise, not knowing why she was so sure.

Lu Zhan is already twenty-four years old. In their circle, many people have been engaged since childhood, and it is also common for them to get married in their early twenties.

Does she know Lu Zhan very well?

Yu Suiwan pursed her lips, her face tense, and said nothing.

Meng Shu ended the topic tactfully.

The car stopped at a corner a few hundred meters away from the Jiang residence. Yu Suiwan opened the car door, opened his umbrella, and walked towards the Jiang residence.

"Be careful." She whispered without turning her head.

"Ah."

The car behind him did not leave immediately. Meng Shu lit a cigarette and watched the girl slowly walk away and disappear in the rain.

Her back seemed to have always been like this, slender and strong, leisurely and determined.

Thinking of the first few years, even when the world's storms came, she was so calm and composed, like fire and ice, standing in front of him and condensing into the only light.

Meng Shu's eyes were a little blurry. He took a deep puff of cigarette to suppress the throbbing in his heart. He didn't turn and leave until the figure in front of him turned the corner and disappeared completely.

When Yu Suiwan approached, he found a Maybach parked on the side of Jiang's house.

The license plate number was unfamiliar, and it wasn't the Jiang family's car. The lights in the car were off, so I couldn't see anything clearly.

She didn't care and walked past.
