The Strongest Female Cannon Fodder in Quick Transmigration

Finally, on the day of the birthday party, Ruoshui received the original owner's memories.

So, the devastating feeling of wanting to die several times after learning that the original owner's video of her losing her mind had been posted online was unbearable.

Let Song Xiaocao experience that feeling this time.

The birthday party was held as scheduled, and this year's party was much more sophisticated than the previous one, with everyone wanting to climb up the Lin family's coattails.

People from all walks of life, from the business world to the political arena, tried every means to obtain an invitation from the Lin family.

Song Xiaocao was probably the one who got it the easiest; her invitation was sent by Ruoshui.

The upcoming drama wouldn't be complete without Song Xiaocao as the leading lady.

Although Song Xiaocao disliked Ruoshui, she realized that Ruoshui had given her the invitation to humiliate her at the banquet.

But she had never attended such a high-class banquet before. The banquet was attended not only by various business and political figures, but also by celebrities from all walks of life.

Where there are celebrities, there are bound to be media, so the banquet's exposure is naturally high.

Song Xiaocao thought that she would just pose in a few ambiguous positions with Shangguan Yi for the media to photograph.

She created the illusion that she was Shangguan Yi's girlfriend, and then used public opinion pressure to completely bind Shangguan Yi to herself.

Even if all of this fails, you can still hook up with a few important people at the banquet.

Song Xiaocao was still immersed in her fantasy, unaware that an endless nightmare was about to greet her.

Ruoshui had already planned everything, but of course she couldn't do it herself.

Given her current status and position, there are countless people who would like to seize on her weaknesses to blackmail the Lin family for their own benefit.

In the original drama, there was another villainous female supporting character who liked Shangguan Yi and would do anything to get him, her name was Guo Ran.

Ruoshui merely sent someone to give this female supporting character some information and hints, and provided her with some convenience in dealing with the female lead.

Ruoshui wasn't worried at all about how the female supporting character would deal with Song Xiaocao.

That female supporting character is far more vicious than Ruoshui; Ruoshui just needs to wait and watch the show.

At the banquet, Ruoshui leisurely sipped her red wine and entertained the guests, exuding elegance and nobility. Yet, her eyes held a faint air of detachment.

While chatting and laughing with various important figures, Ruoshui secretly searched for her target, Li Zhong.

The Shangguan family's smooth trade routes are inseparable from Li Zhong.

When Li Zhong was still a minor official, he had cooperated with the Shangguan family; collusion between government and business was not uncommon.

However, during the cooperation, the patriarch of the Shangguan family obtained evidence that Li Zhong had embezzled public funds, and used this to blackmail Li Zhong.

Li Zhong's official position rose higher and higher, but the amount of public funds he embezzled was enormous.

Once exposed, not only will they lose their official positions, but they will also face imprisonment.

Because of Li Zhong, the Shangguan family's various projects were approved very easily, and the government's subsidies for enterprises usually ended up in the Shangguan family's pockets.

If Ruoshui could just help Li Zhong get that evidence, Li Zhong would already hate the Shangguan family to the bone without Ruoshui even lifting a finger. He wouldn't let the Shangguan family get away with it.

Moreover, Ruoshui could also take this opportunity to cooperate with Li Zhong and gain influence in the political arena.

Li Zhong tried every means possible, even sending people to steal it from Master Shangguan's study, but he couldn't find this crucial piece of evidence.

Ruoshui learns from the plot that the document was kept in a small safe by the patriarch of the Shangguan family.

It was buried in the backyard of the Shangguan family's old house in the countryside before they became wealthy.

The box was buried by the patriarch of the Shangguan family himself. He was certain that no one would know, but he could not have foreseen that Ruoshui would know the plot.

Ruoshui sent men to dig out the safe at night and saw it open, easily obtaining the document.

Ruoshui had to be thankful for the old man's cleverness; if he had left the documents in a study or somewhere else, Ruoshui wouldn't have been able to get them so easily.

Ruoshui walked gracefully to Li Zhong, seemingly nonchalant, but in fact she had come specifically for him.

"Mr. Li, thank you for attending my birthday party. You are a high-ranking official now, and I am truly grateful that you could grace the birthday celebration of a nobody like me."

Li Zhong quickly replied, "Not at all, not at all. If Miss Lin is considered a nobody, then who is a big shot? The business world is practically dominated by the Lin family these days."

Ruoshui smiled slightly, then gently furrowed her beautiful brows, as if she were somewhat troubled.

"No matter how much money I have, I'm just a small businessman, powerless and without influence. I still have to listen to high-ranking officials like Lord Li."

Upon hearing this, Li Zhong knew that Ruoshui meant she wanted to get involved in politics.

"If Miss Lin has any problems, she can come to me, Li Zhong, for advice. I am not very capable, but I do have some friends. I will do my best to help Miss Lin if it is within my power."

Li Zhong's words were a statement of his willingness to cooperate with Ruoshui, and Ruoshui then stopped being insincere.

"Thank you so much, Mr. Li. I heard that you have a good relationship with the old master of the Shangguan family."

"However, I have a way to ensure Mr. Li has no more worries. To show my sincerity, I will present Mr. Li with a generous gift."

Others would find this nonsensical and incomprehensible, but Li Zhong was shocked when he heard it.

Although he still had that kind and amiable face on the surface, his contracted pupils betrayed him.

Ruoshui smiled gently, like a flower blooming in March, beautiful and elegant. "Oh dear, I accidentally chatted with Mr. Li for so long. It's unexpected that we get along so well."

"Why don't you stay at the Lin family's house for a while after the banquet, Mr. Li, so we can continue our discussion about that generous gift?"

At this moment, the crowd became noisy, chattering as if discussing something. Ruoshui knew that Song Xiaocao had probably fallen for the trick of that vicious female supporting character.
