After I died, I became the white moonlight of the crazy villain.
Chapter 56 Setting a Trap for Them
I carefully recalled this incident and the time when it last happened.
If I remember correctly, the smugglers have already hidden the goods, and it will only be a few days before the young couple discovers them.
I told Ge Zeyu about the smugglers hiding their goods, and then planned to use this batch of smuggled items to lure Song Chenhao into making a move.
Ge Zeyu stared at me with dark eyes, looking me up and down all night. He had been sitting there lazily, but now he straightened his back. "Jiang Wanying, sometimes I really feel like you suddenly have an extra eye, and you can see many things that will happen in the future."
"I hadn't even heard about such a big smuggling operation, yet you knew the location and the exact quantity of the goods."
He bent down and his warm breath sprayed on my face, making me feel a little uncomfortable. I had never pretended in front of Ge Zeyu, and I unconsciously blurted out my true thoughts.
But I never thought that saying these things would easily arouse suspicion.
Ge Zeyu didn't pursue the matter once or twice, but after it happened repeatedly, he would definitely want to investigate further.
I turned my head away and made an excuse, "I'm just a little more informed. You get good grades and are always thinking about studying, so it's normal that you don't know these things."
Ge Zeyu squinted and chuckled, clearly not believing my statement. He reached out and grabbed my arm, pulling me closer to him and not allowing me to back away.
"to be frank!"
I pursed my lips and didn't say anything. He stared at me for several seconds before saying, "Don't try to fob me off with your excuses. Do you know how fake all those lies you tell are? If you're not smart enough, then stop lying."
I was about to say that you're the one who's not thinking straight, but I swallowed the words back. When I met his eyes, I couldn't help but think of the scene from my previous life, where he was injured but still wanted to avenge me.
I couldn't bring myself to tell him to mind his own business, nor could I explain where I'd gotten this information from.
I stood on tiptoe, advancing instead of retreating, and said, "Just tell me if you believe what I'm saying. I assure you, I'm absolutely not lying to you. You should have seen what I've been doing lately. I have completely given up on Song Chenhao."
Not only do I have no ideas, I wish Song Chenhao would be locked up right now, but to complete my plan, I need Ge Zeyu's help.
If I suddenly ran to the police station and told them I knew who the smugglers were, I doubt they would believe me. They would also question me about where I got the information from, and I couldn't very well say that I saw it by accident or that it happened during a previous experience.
Therefore, I need Ge Zeyu to cover for me. Uncle Ge has a high status, and if he says a word, outsiders will definitely not investigate and will immediately take care of the matter.
I reached out and tugged at his sleeve, trying to be as coquettish as I always had, "Just help me one last time. What we're doing isn't illegal. It's just leaking information to Song Chenhao. If he stays true to himself, I'll give him a portion of the company's shares."
"If he did not stay true to his principles, then we are doing the people a favor by eliminating a scourge."
Just as Ge Zeyu was about to say something, a cough from the side interrupted our conversation.
I turned my head and saw Su Jiayi with a flushed face, his eyes filled with a teasing and amused look. After noticing our gazes, he slowly said, "This is the company."
"The company is very quiet, and no one will disturb your conversation. Of course, if you two can't hear each other clearly, then just pretend I didn't say anything."
After his reminder, I realized that Ge Zeyu and I were practically touching. I hadn't noticed anything was wrong before, but once I realized it, I quickly tried to back away.
Ge Zeyu reacted even faster than I did. He quickly let go of my hand, took several steps back, and put his hands behind his back.
"I promise you, but after this is done, you'll have to focus on your studies. I don't want to..."
Sensing what he was about to say, I interrupted him before he finished, saying, "I know you don't want to be dragged down by me and end up in a third-rate university. I promise that after this is over, I will focus all my attention on my studies."
He turned his head, gave a cold snort, and walked out with an arrogant look on his face.
I rode in his car home. My dad had already gone to the company, and my mom was sitting alone on the sofa. She asked me a few questions.
I told them that I didn't care about what happened today and that I knew nothing about my dad's company. After saying that, I went upstairs to rest.
Lying in bed, I started to think about how Song Chenhao must remember the smuggling incident, but he just hadn't thought of it yet. How could I subtly remind him of it?
Soon, an idea came to me. The next morning, when I got up, I deliberately pretended to have no appetite while eating breakfast.
When my mother asked me, I deliberately said that I wanted to eat the steamed buns that Li Yaqin had made before. After saying that, I frowned and said, "Forget it, these two are ungrateful. Bringing them back might cause more trouble."
My mom has always doted on me. Seeing that we had no appetite, she comforted me, saying, "They're staying with us now. At worst, we can have them make steamed buns like before, and we'll pay them."
"Then, Mom, could you call Aunt Li? I'll go get it myself later," I said with a smile.
In these little things, my mother always indulges me.
After he finished his call, I immediately went upstairs and changed into a more eye-catching outfit, all of which were luxury designs by designers.
I never wore this when I was in school. It would be too conspicuous in a crowd. Bian Jiahui even stole my clothes. But I didn't dare wear designer pieces like this because they would be too obvious.
After getting dressed, I made a point of wearing a brooch and necklace, and only after checking everything did I get in the car and leave.
When we arrived at the apartment complex where Li Yaqin and her daughter were staying, she opened the door, glanced at me, and her eyes widened involuntarily. Then, a hint of jealousy and greed appeared in her eyes.
"Wanwan, you came to see me on your own initiative today, does that mean you've forgiven me? You look so beautiful today, I've never seen you wear these clothes and jewelry before."
I gave a curt reply. Li Yaqin was busy in the kitchen, and the steamed buns weren't ready yet. I naturally sat down on the sofa, adopting the demeanor of the hostess.
"Your mom made me some steamed buns today, that'll cover the room fee for you staying here. Oh, by the way, after you left my room last time, I lost an exercise book."
As soon as I finished speaking, I saw her expression suddenly change.
