I was dragged back into the car by Ge Zeyu. I just turned my head to the side, took a few deep breaths, and suppressed my emotions.

Only then did Ge Zeyu release his grip, saying that what he had just said was just an angry outburst, and that he had never believed that I was in cahoots with Fu Xinyi.

After he finished speaking, I still didn't say anything. Ge Zeyu pressed my shoulder and forcefully turned me around. "We're even now. You said something in anger just now."

I snorted coldly, feeling a little wavering, but I didn't soften my tone. Ge Zeyu immediately said that the mall was just ahead and he would buy me the clothes and bags I liked.

Then he promised to buy me jewelry and treat me to dinner. As he spoke, his tone became more irritable. He grabbed my hand and put it on his shoulder. "If you're really not satisfied, just punch me twice. I promise I won't fight back."

Hearing him say that, I immediately pulled my hand back, and my anger subsided considerably. "Who wanted to hit you? I'm not that kind of barbaric person."

Xu Qing, who was driving in front, breathed a slight sigh of relief after seeing that the two of us had made up. "You two shouldn't be arguing anymore. Let's get down to business."

"Who said they're a couple!" Ge Zeyu and I retorted in unison, but my voice carried a hint of annoyance, while Ge Zeyu's tone was more one of dissatisfaction.

He gave Xu Qing a warning look, telling him to drive carefully and not to speak carelessly without knowing the situation.

His reaction made me purse my lips. Was he really that afraid of being associated with me?

But soon, I banished these feelings of disappointment and started discussing whether or not to buy the land in the west of the city.

I've also seen what happened today. There's clearly some kind of transfer of benefits between the Fu family and Chang Xin. Even the bureau chief is one of their people. After all, some people have power but no money, but the Fu family is the opposite.

The family has a lot of money, and it would be perfect to use that money to build relationships and win people's hearts.

If you want to completely destroy the Fu family, you not only have to fight against Chang Xin, the supporter behind them, but also try every means to undermine the Fu family's business.

“I think we shouldn’t sell the land in the west of the city for now. Last time, Bian Jiahui told me that the Fu family’s business was in trouble and that the land in the west of the city was likely to be sold. Sure enough, the land in the west of the city was sold in the blink of an eye.”

"This was supposed to be a confidential message, but somehow we found out. Don't you find that strange?"

I expressed my thoughts, suspecting that this might be a trap deliberately set by the other party.

Although I can't see where the trap is in this whole thing, I'm certain that Bian Jiahui wasn't that kind-hearted.

“I think the information Bian Jiahui told me before was intentional. The Fu family has a lot of assets. Even though a lot of assets in the West City project are tied up, they still have the ability to operate. We are different.”

After hearing my words, Ge Zeyu's eyes flickered slightly, then he frowned. "But the news my dad received is that the permits for developing the land in the west of the city have already been issued. What other changes could possibly happen?"

I don't understand this either. I remained silent, only indicating that this was just my guess and nothing more. Ultimately, whether or not to buy the land in the west of the city depends on what Ge Zeyu and Xu Qing decide.

At this time, Xu Qing advocated buying land in the west of the city, feeling that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and that the source of this information was relatively reliable. If the Fu family had not released the information, he would not have known about it.

Ge Zeyu turned to look at me, then at Xu Qing, and then shook his head firmly. "I trust Wanwan's judgment on this matter. We don't have many assets, and we can't afford to be tied up."

After we discussed it, Ge Zeyu drove me home.

As soon as I entered the house, I saw my dad sitting on the sofa with a gloomy face. I guessed what he was going to say, so before he could speak, I spoke first.

"Dad, if you're going to scold me for the engagement, why don't you calm down first? The Fu family has completely offended the Ge family. It's still unknown who will win between the two families. Are you so confident that you're going to put all your eggs in one basket with the Fu family?"

I know exactly what kind of person my father is: selfish, cold-hearted, and heartless. If I try to appeal to his feelings or the bond between father and daughter, I will absolutely not be able to move him.

However, if I bring up the issue of betting and profit, he will hesitate to some extent. I don't expect him to definitely be on my side, but since we live under the same roof, I don't want to be constantly pressured by him.

After hearing what I said, my dad's expression improved considerably. He then smiled and praised me gently, saying that I had grown up and knew how to weigh the pros and cons of many things.

Then he changed the subject and said that it was somewhat unsafe for my mother to live alone in the neighborhood, and that he planned to bring her back.

Upon hearing this, I refused without thinking. My mother is very free now. He just felt that he had lost face and that Li Yaqin couldn't handle the situation, so he wanted to bring my mother back.

I don't want my mom to step into this disgusting house again. "Dad, no matter what, Jia Hui's baby belongs to the rich family. If you ask my mom to come back now, who will be in charge of this family, my mom or Li Yaqin?"

“If the two of them are getting along, you can’t possibly kick Jia Hui and Li Yaqin out of the house. If things get out of hand, you’ll only lose face.”

After hearing what I said, my dad indeed gave up the idea and pretended to be magnanimous, saying that if my mom wanted to relax outside, she could relax for a longer period of time.

I went back to my room to rest, and when I woke up early the next morning, I received a call from Ge Zeyu. His car was already parked outside.

After a quick breakfast, I got into his car. As soon as we arrived at school, Ge Zeyu's appearance caused a sensation.

After all, there were previous rumors that he had gotten into trouble, but now that he has suddenly come back from the dead, the school forum has become lively again.

When Ge Zeyu and I parted, he told me that there was a social event that evening, which was between the two departments. Then he said, "You don't have a male companion. If you go alone, you might get entangled with Fu Xinyi again. To save you some trouble, I'm going to reluctantly be your male companion."

These social events are for couples to participate in, as they can make friends; those who are single can attend with the intention of finding a partner.

When I heard that Ge Zeyu was going to be my date, my heart skipped a beat. I tentatively asked, "Are you really trying to help me, or do you actually want to be my date?"
