Rebirth of the Star God Agent

Arriving at the restaurant, they entered the private room where Dai Yi and Gu Ling were staying. The two had already ordered a table full of dishes and were waiting for Zhai Anle and the other two.

Zhai Anle greeted the two of them with a smile and sat down next to Dai Yi.

Dai Yi glanced at the door of the private room, "Where are Zhou Zhou and Yuan Bao?"

Zhai Anle waved his hand and said, "They got up late and are coming over."

Dai Yi nodded and poured a glass of juice for Zhai Anle first.

Dai Yi, "Your homework..." He wanted to take care of the homework they had missed before the two of them arrived.

Zhai Anle narrowed his eyes and smiled, "My grades are guaranteed by Dean He and Professor Fu, so there's no problem."

Dai Yi naturally knew that Zhai Anle was deeply loved by the instructors and teachers, so he nodded.

Gu Ling took out a thick stack of documents and pushed them to Zhai Anle.

Zhai Anle was stunned, took it, and looked at the desk on the cover one by one.

Various research reports, test data, and project plans.

Zhai Anle's eyes lit up, and he opened his eyes wide as he read through them one by one, his surprise beyond words.

Zhai Anle pointed at the pile of documents and looked at Gu Ling, "What is this?"

Gu Ling smiled, "The Gu family's sincerity."

Zhai Anle nodded repeatedly, "The Gu family is amazing." Zhai Anle clicked his tongue.

The Gu family lived up to their reputation. Any of their assets would be a lucrative business.

Zhai Anle patted a thick stack of documents and said, "Gu Ling, how long has your family been accumulating this wealth? Are you going to give it all away? It's a bit too heavy."

Gu Ling took a sip of water and smiled. "We have a lot of these things at home. Ever since our family fell into poverty, they've been constantly being bullied at work and taken advantage of. Over time, they've learned to be patient and restrained. We've accumulated more and more of these things. I'm glad Young Master Qi doesn't mind them. It's better for you to take them than to have them gather dust in a filing cabinet at home. Isn't that right?"

Zhai Anle looked at the thick stack of documents and felt very emotional.

"Why can't the Xu family do something good? Why ruin the jobs of honest people..."

Dai Yi frowned, looking at Gu Ling, who was now smiling and laughing, with some heartache. The Gu family was truly miserable.

The door of the private room was pushed open, and Yin Yuanbao and Zhou Zhou walked in one after another. Without any extra words, they sat down directly.

When Zhou Zhou saw the stack of documents in Zhai Anle's hand, his eyes flashed and a smile appeared on his lips.

The top cover of the document clearly reads: [Development Data for New External Coatings for Federal Military Mechas]

He could also clearly see the small words at the bottom of the cover: (Gu Baiheng) The research results of the third son of the Gu family.

Yin Yuanbao sat obediently next to Zhai Anle, picked up his chopsticks happily, and prepared to eat.

Zhai Anle smiled and said, "Everyone is here, let's eat. Let's talk while we eat."

Several people picked up their chopsticks and started eating.

This time it was Dai Yi who spoke first. He was the leader of this matter, so naturally he was the first to bring it up.

Dai Yi picked up some meat with his chopsticks and put it into Gu Ling's bowl. "I've been ignoring Chang Yu recently. He's not stupid. After he understood my attitude, he rarely appeared in front of me. However, I still heard some rumors about him from other classmates."

Several people looked at Dai Yi while eating, only Gu Ling ate in silence.

Dai Yi said, "Chang Yu is still acting like his old self. He pretends to be kind in front of others, but he's quite cunning and is still ostracizing Gu Ling."

Gu Ling swallowed the food in her mouth and glanced at Dai Yi. "Since you and I became close, the situation has improved a lot."

Dai Yi frowned. "I've been using my father's men to keep an eye on the Chang family. With the recent Bai family incident and the Qi family incident that's been making headlines online, the Chang family has uncharacteristically kept a low profile. It's been difficult for me to find out anything. People are still keeping an eye on the Chang family, but we can't keep an eye on everyone in the family."

Zhai Anle took a sip of his soup and said, "During this period of time, the Xu family should have told them to be more restrained. After all, things have been going badly for the Xu family lately, so they must be extra cautious."

Zhou Zhou continued to feed Yin Yuanbao, "Let's withdraw your father's men first. We don't need to focus on the Chang family. The Chang family is just a pawn for the Xu family. It will be much easier to deal with the Chang family. You've missed the point."

Gu Ling smiled. "Yeah, I think so too."

Dai Yi blinked and looked at Zhou Zhou.

Dai Yi, "Ah? Then what should we do?"

Zhai Anle laughed out loud. "The Chang family's methods are so low-brow that it wouldn't be difficult to investigate them, but there's no need. Don't they want to replace the Gu family and gain fame and fortune in the name of a scientific research family? Isn't this the handle the Chang family has handed to us?"

Gu Ling nodded. "We've been secretly following the research published by the Chang family and have found quite a few problems."

Zhou Zhou looked at Gu Ling with a smile and shook his head. He was still too naive.

Gu Ling looked at Zhou Zhou in confusion, not understanding why he shook his head.

Seeing Gu Ling's expression, Zhai Anle also shook his head. She was a girl from an honest family. She was smart, but she also had some bad sides that she couldn't imagine.

Zhai Anle explained her confusion, "If the Chang family was like the Gu family, with so many talented people, why would he do such shameful things behind the scenes? It's because the Chang family doesn't have any talented people that they keep biting the Gu family like a mad dog. So, if he has no ability, how can he maintain the image of a scientific research family in front of the Chang family?"

Gu Ling's eyes gradually widened, and she was thinking according to Zhai Anle's ideas.

Yes, how can they maintain it? They have no talent, yet they have to keep publishing research results. So, where do these research results come from?

Zhou Zhou sighed. "Gunman, or maybe, thief."

The honest young couple opened their eyes wide at the same time, their eyes full of disbelief.

The Chang family is truly despicable. They clearly have no ability, and they're clearly chasing fame and fortune, yet they insist on creating a reputation as a scientific research family. It's truly disgusting.

The most ridiculous thing is that in order to become like the Gu family, you have to mess with the Gu family.

Dai Yi and Gu Ling shook their heads at the same time and sighed deeply.

Yin Yuanbao raised his head and said, "It doesn't matter what they do. If they don't have the ability, why do they have to be a scientific research family?"

This sentence hits the point.

Zhai Anle and Zhou Zhou looked at each other.

Zhai Anle, "Maybe, they just need a scientific research family. The Chang family may not be their first choice, but..." Zhai Anle looked at Gu Ling.

Zhou Zhou also looked at Gu Ling and continued, "It's just that the Gu family is unwilling, or rather, they don't care about their attempts to win them over. The Chang family wants fame and fortune, so the Chang family became the second option."

Gu Ling looked puzzled.

Gu Ling, "Huh? You mean, they tried to win us over?"

Zhai Anle and Zhou Zhou looked at Gu Ling's expression with amusement.

Zhou Zhou, "What? If you knew they were trying to win you over, what would you do?"

Zhai Anle smiled and looked at Gu Ling. This answer was very important.

It's a good thing to love research, but if you only love research and completely ignore the seriousness of the matter and the interests involved, you can only be called a "scientific research madman", which is a very dangerous signal.

Gu Ling frowned and thought for a long time before she spoke. "Before, before the Gu family fell into decline, it seems someone did come in and out of our house quite frequently. Family members often complained about being interfered with at work, that someone wanted to control their research, or that they were being forced to do unwanted work. It was very annoying, and when they encountered such situations, they would mostly hide and retreat. And then something happened at home."

Gu Ling's face was a little aggrieved. "If this is considered winning them over, their families probably won't agree. They just want to do what they like and don't want to be controlled. It's too frustrating. They can't stand it."

Zhai Anle and Zhou Zhou laughed out loud at the same time.

Yes. The Gu family was indeed such a family. The Xu family's self-righteousness backfired, and they lost the Gu family, a very important chess piece.

The Gu family didn't disappoint Zhai Anle and Zhou Zhou. The Gu family was worth it. They not only loved their careers, but also enjoyed a free life and work, unwilling to be pawns on someone else's chessboard.

It is good enough if you don't have the intention to harm others, don't pursue fame and fortune, and don't fight or compete.

It was so good that even Zhai Anle and Zhou Zhou were amazed. Such a family had survived for so long, only to be persecuted by the Xu family two years ago.

It was... very shocking to them.

Gu Ling bit her lip, looking a little embarrassed. "Well, we really want to take revenge on the Chang family. Although they have someone behind them, the Chang family must have malicious intentions towards our family. Otherwise, those people behind them would not have chosen the Chang family. Right?"

Zhai Anle and Zhou Zhou couldn't help but burst out laughing again.

Zhai Anle said, "Yes, we are here to discuss how to deal with the Chang family."

Zhou Zhou couldn't help laughing. "Well, it's reasonable for you to want to take revenge on the Chang family. We must help. The Chang family is really disgusting. Besides, they are minions of the Xu family."

Gu Ling blushed and stuttered a little, "Then, then, what should we do?"

Dai Yi also smiled and refilled Gu Ling's juice cup with juice.

Yin Yuanbao also smiled, "Why are you still nervous? Have you never retaliated against anyone? There's nothing to be embarrassed about."

Gu Ling blushed and lowered her head slightly. "I, I really have never done anything to retaliate against anyone. The first time, I just felt... a little awkward."

Dai Yi smiled as he picked up some food for Gu Ling and comforted her, "You've never taken revenge on anyone, so I understand. Just eat your meal and listen to what Anle and Zhou Zhou have to say."

Gu Ling nodded and ate obediently.

Several people were laughing, eating and discussing at the same time.

Zhou Zhou ate a shrimp and picked up another shrimp for Yin Yuanbao.

Zhou Zhou, "It's simple. Didn't I just say that? The evidence is right in front of us. Let's collect the research reports published by the Chang family in recent years and find their mistakes. We can also retrieve the patents applied for by the Chang family and find their original sources."

Zhai Anle spat out the shrimp shells in his mouth and nodded. "These are all basic exercises. We also need to see what research projects the Chang family has recently launched and give them some trouble. We need to interrupt their research and publish their research results in advance."

Gu Ling was stunned.

Gu Ling stuttered, "Is this, this, not good?"

Yin Yuanbao also spat out the shrimp shells. "What? What's wrong with this? Hasn't the Chang family treated your family like this before?"

Gu Ling choked.

The Chang family has actually done all of this.

Zhai Anle continued to eat the shrimp. As expected, eating the shrimp directly and spitting out the shells was more convenient than peeling the shrimp manually. He was not happy to peel the shrimp when Qi Ji was not around.

Zhou Zhou laughed and tried to comfort Gu Ling.

Zhou Zhou, "We're seeking revenge, not competition. Our original intention was to make things difficult for the Chang family. Of course, the more difficult it is, the better. Furthermore, this is just what they did to you in the past. They've done a lot of things like this before, right? They've even done a lot of things that are even more extreme, right? Gu Ling, you Gu family members are all too honest. That's why those people dared to keep on biting you. You don't need to feel any psychological burden. If you don't overturn the tables on these people, they will continue to do even worse things."

Zhai Anle spat out another shrimp shell and said, "Right. I think we're being too kind. We're being restrained in our plans out of consideration for the mental health of your Gu family."

There were faint traces of twitching at the corners of Dai Yi's lips.

Yin Yuanbao blinked and looked at Zhai Anle, "Isn't this what the Chang family deserves? Justice is clear, and retribution should be inevitable." Yin Yuanbao said righteously.

Gu Ling looked at Yin Yuanbao, who looked as if it was natural, and fell into deep thought.

Ah, yes. Isn't this how revenge should be? What on earth was she thinking? If she was still thinking of giving in to a family as evil as the Chang family, wasn't she a little... saintly?

Gu Ling nodded, relaxed, and imitated Zhai Anle and Yin Yuanbao in eating shrimps. She took a bite, chewed it, and spat out the shrimp shell with a "puff".

Gu Ling sighed contentedly, "Do whatever you want. There's no need to worry about anything. The Gu family is mentally healthy. They're just a little too honest, but, after all this time, the Gu family should have made some progress. Retreating will never solve the problems posed by those with ulterior motives."

Zhai Anle smiled with satisfaction.
