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

I took a deep breath to suppress my agitation.

If this matter is only directed at Ge Zeyu and me, then Uncle Ge will still have a way to resolve it. However, if this matter is done by Ge's political enemies, then someone is using this as an excuse to make trouble.

Uncle Ge might not be able to solve this problem either. I should have known better than to ask Ge Zeyu for help. Now I feel uneasy about this situation.

When Fu Xinyi offered to help at this time, I didn't agree immediately. There's no such thing as a free lunch, and I didn't believe he could be so kind.

"What are your conditions? Is your solution another arranged marriage?"

“I know you don’t want to contact me, and I know you don’t want to trade your feelings.” He softened his features, staring intently at me, and said seductively, “I have a better solution: we can pretend to be a couple.”

He told me that as long as I broke off my engagement with the Ge family and solemnly announced it to the public, I would have no relationship with Ge Zeyu anymore.

Then we pretended to be a couple, so he could come forward and say that the investment funds I had were brought in by him and had nothing to do with Ge Zeyu.

With him as a witness, the rumors and gossip outside will soon disappear.

I don't know why Fu Xinyi is so persistent about me. We've never really had any contact, but he seems determined to get what he wants. First, he proposed a marriage alliance, and now he's suggesting we pretend to be a couple.

Although it can solve the immediate predicament, it means that a rift will be created between Ge Zeyu and me. In the future, we won't be able to be lovers, or even friends.

Fu Xinyi stared at me for a long while before continuing, "I admit I have ulterior motives. I wanted to marry you, but you refused. So I thought we could spend some time together, and maybe you'll fall in love with me again."

"Of course, you can take your time to consider it and don't have to rush to agree. However, the Ge family probably won't be able to wait much longer. Uncle Ge is in a high position, and many eyes are watching him, wanting to bring him down and replace him. If a scandal breaks out at this time, neither of your families will be in a good place."

I know perfectly well that what Fu Xinyi said is true. Even though I am engaged to Ge Zeyu, it is perfectly legitimate for him to bring me investment. However, those outside watching will exaggerate the matter.

Many of Ge Zeyu's friends are in business, and if you really investigate, you can find something to hold against him.

Moreover, sometimes evidence isn't the most important thing; rumors and gossip are far more damaging, and it's incredibly easy to ruin someone's reputation.

I didn't immediately agree to Fu Xinyi's request; I decided to wait and see.

When I got home, my dad was at the company dealing with some business and hadn't come back yet.

But my mom looked worried and told me that Aunt Su Qing had just called and asked me to ask Ge Zeyu for leave, because he was quite busy lately and probably wouldn't be able to go to school.

I clenched my fingers, feeling increasingly conflicted. I didn't want to agree to Fu Xinyi's conditions, but I didn't have a better solution at the moment.

I received the bank card this morning and immediately transferred the money to the company's account. Even if I withdraw the money now, I can't erase these traces.

That afternoon I went to the company and found Su Jiayi. He excitedly told me that with the investment I provided, the company's morale had been restored and everyone was actively preparing to develop the complete core technology.

Seeing how happy he was, I took a deep breath and called Fu Xinyi. When the call connected, I said directly, "I agree to what you said. Come with me to the Ge family at five o'clock tonight."

After I finished speaking, I hung up the phone immediately, not wanting to hear his reply.

At five o'clock sharp, I grabbed my coat and left the company gate. A luxury car was parked at the entrance, and Fu Xinyi got out to open the door for me.

We didn't talk much on the way. After we arrived at Ge's house, I finally spoke up and said, "Our relationship will last for a month at most, after which we will announce our breakup to the public."

A month is enough time to resolve the current problem, but in order to get him to agree, I offered, "I don't have anything of particular value right now. If you are interested in shares in the intelligent robot company, I can transfer some to you free of charge as a thank you for resolving your problem."

Fu Xinyi turned to stare at me, her smile inexplicably cold, and said ambiguously, "Are you so eager to get rid of me? Am I some kind of burden?"

"I don't lack money, yet you want to use money to get rid of me?"

I paused for a moment. The son of the richest man certainly didn't lack money, but apart from that, I really didn't know what else I could use to express my gratitude.

"The future of intelligent robots is bright. If you are willing to trust me, then take this share as a small compensation to you."

In the end, Fu Xinyi had no choice but to reluctantly agree. After getting out of the car, he walked to my side and put his arm around my waist. He was usually gentle and reasonable, but at this moment he was unusually forceful.

I instinctively tried to struggle, but I heard his whispered warning, "You need to be more professional when you're acting. Those people in the show are all shrewd. It would be terrible if they didn't believe you."

I suppressed my inner frustration and followed him to the hall. As soon as I entered, all eyes on the sofa turned to me, and Ge Zeyu suddenly stood up.

Aunt Su Qing looked at me and then her gaze fell on Fu Xinyi's hand on my waist. She called out to me in disbelief, "Wanwan, what's this?"

Besides the Ge family of three, there were two strangers in the hall, a man and a woman. They were wearing work clothes and holding pens and notebooks as if they were taking notes. Their faces were serious and their eyes were curious as they looked at each other.

It seems these two are the investigators. I pretended not to see them and walked over to them, saying, "Aunt Su Qing, I've come today to discuss something with you. You joked with my mom before, saying that I should be with Ge Zeyu in the future."

"This kind of arranged marriage is outdated. It just so happens that I met someone I like at this time, so I want Aunt Su Qin to issue a public announcement to show that my engagement with Ge Zeyu was just a joke."

Ge Zeyu's face darkened instantly. He took a big step forward, grabbed my arm, and pulled me out of Fu Xinyi's arms.

He looked down at me and said in a chilling tone, "Have you forgotten what you said before? Is it fun to play with me?"
