After I died, I became the white moonlight of the crazy villain.

I exchanged a glance with Ge Zeyu, and my heart started pounding.

Not long after Fu Xinyi finished speaking, his second uncle also asked, "Are you sure you didn't see wrong just now?"

"I only vaguely saw two figures just now, but I'm not sure." Fu Xinyi's tone became increasingly doubtful. He then suggested that if there were any other people in the other rooms, they could go in and check again to find out.

The two of us re-entered the living room. Ge Zeyu and I didn't dare to move, and even our breathing slowed down. We exchanged glances at each other.

It was only a matter of time before Fu Xinyi found out. Given his suspicious nature, once he had a suspicion, he would definitely investigate.

At this moment, footsteps approached little by little, and someone slowly walked towards the screen. Out of the corner of my eye, I could vaguely see the shadow cast on the ground, which was being stretched longer and longer.

This made my palms sweat profusely, and my mind frantically searched for a way to resolve the current predicament, but I couldn't think of a solution at all. It was not a good thing for either me or Ge Zeyu to be exposed at the moment.

Just as my heart was pounding, a clear and gentle voice suddenly rang out from the doorway.

Xu Qing walked in unhurriedly and asked with a puzzled look, "You two haven't left yet?"

Fu Xinyi chuckled and then said, "I had heard that Mr. Xu was not interested in women and had been fighting in the business world for so many years without ever considering his own health. I never thought that he would have a mistress in his arms."

Hearing Fu Xinyi's voice, my heart jumped into my throat. I knew he was deliberately testing me.

They wanted to buy the land from Xu Qing, so naturally they couldn't afford to offend him too much. This made me even more certain that they really wanted the land in the east of the city.

Otherwise, given Fu Xinyi's personality, after suffering such a great loss and losing face at Xu Qing's hands, he would definitely try every means to get revenge.

Not only did they not do that now, but even if they suspected there were other people in the house, they didn't dare to investigate in front of Xu Qing, and only dared to probe with words.

Fortunately, Xu Qing reacted quickly, his voice icy cold as he bluntly said, "You two haven't left yet, so you suspect there's someone in my house? Are you two planning to search my house?"

He walked over as he spoke, then opened the folding screen, his gaze sweeping over me and Ge Zeyu before turning to Fu Xinyi.

"Young Master Fu also wants to see, then come and take a closer look."

Ge Zeyu and I are standing in this corner where Fu Xinyi is. If Fu Xinyi takes one or two more steps forward and peeks out, she will be able to see Ge Zeyu's figure.

Xu Qing was clearly gambling, betting that the Fu family really wanted the land in the east of the city and wouldn't offend him. Fortunately, he made the right bet.

Fu Xinyi's second uncle took the initiative to speak up, asking Fu Xinyi to go back with him, and politely said, "Mr. Xu, you are too kind. Whether or not someone is keeping a mistress is none of our Fu family's business. Our Fu family has no interest in other people's private affairs."

"Mr. Xu, please reconsider my previous proposal. If the price is not right, we can continue to discuss it."

After saying that, he left with Fu Xinyi. After everyone had left, Ge Zeyu and I remained motionless for a long time, afraid that the two of them might come back for a surprise attack.

After all, the two of them suddenly came back just now. You came back to get your coat because you left it inside, and who knew you would see me and Ge Zeyu.

Luckily, Ge Zeyu reacted quickly and pulled me away to hide, otherwise we would have been exposed today.

Today's events were full of twists and turns, and each one made me extremely nervous.

"How long are you two planning to keep hugging? She's already gone!" Xu Qing's voice rang out from the side. Her gaze swept over the two of us before she sat down on the sofa by herself.

I stood up straight, ready to walk out, but due to excessive nervousness, my legs suddenly went weak and I almost fell to the ground.

Fortunately, Ge Zeyu reached out and helped me up, wrapping his arm around my waist as we sat on the sofa.

After we were both seated, Xu Qing asked, "What are your thoughts on the land in the east of the city? This land has been sitting in our hands for several years now. Unless we can get the permits now, it will remain a wasteland in our hands."

Even if they wanted to build a factory, they would need approval from higher-ups. But today, the Fu family made it clear that if they didn't sell the land to them, they would definitely use their connections to make things difficult for Xu Qing, and the factory would definitely not be able to be built.

“What I mean is to sell this land and have more funds so we can use it to develop the company,” Xu Qing finally said, but he kept his brows furrowed as he spoke, seemingly hesitant.

After taking a sip of water from the table, Ge Zeyu glanced at me and then said to Xu Qing, "You sensed something was wrong too, didn't you?"

Anyone with eyes and a bit of business sense can tell that something is wrong, but we haven't figured out exactly what's wrong yet.

Xu Qing slammed down his cup, as if he had made up his mind. "I'm not someone to be trifled with either. Since we all have doubts about this matter, let's not sell this land for now. We can use it as bait to keep them hanging."

After discussing the matter, Xu Qing turned to me and said, "I think Miss Jiang could go home and investigate how your father's project is progressing with the Fu family. It might be difficult for others to investigate, but it would be much easier for you."

I was about to nod in agreement when Ge Zeyu stepped in to refuse, his tone leaving no room for doubt: "She only needs to avoid arousing Fu Xinyi's suspicion on the surface. Getting involved will only put her in danger. I don't agree."

Xu Qing raised his eyebrows slightly, indicating that I was already in danger, so how could I possibly have a chance to escape now?

Fu Xinyi's actions this time are not only aimed at me, but also at Ge Zeyu. If it were just to get revenge on the two of us, even if he wanted to use so many connections, the elders of the Fu family would not agree.

Therefore, this is not just a personal matter; it concerns the Jiang Group, the Ge family, and even the future of the city's business district.

I knew Ge Zeyu was worried about my safety, so I quickly said that I also wanted to do something to help them.

After discussing the next steps, Xu Qing had the driver take me back. To ensure the plan went smoothly, he also got into the car and personally drove me home.

Through the glass window, I watched Ge Zeyu's figure grow smaller and smaller in the distance.

Back at the Jiang family home, the house was brightly lit. When Xu Qing and I entered, we saw an unexpected person in the living room.
