My sister regretted sending me to the correctional facility.

I discovered the Jade Club when I was investigating Liu Chaoyang.

One of the unexpected discoveries.

However, other evidence was sufficient to execute Liu Chaoyang.

So I didn't put much effort into the Jade Club.

I never expected that the Azure Club, which I had previously overlooked, would be so special.

This can play a crucial role at this time.

However, I want to investigate the Azure Club.

We cannot go there rashly.

Once this matter alerted Liu Chaoyang.

Given Liu Chaoyang's reaction speed...

They will definitely cut ties with the Jade Club as soon as possible.

This resulted in me being unable to find any information.

Because the Green Club is a relatively inconspicuous part of Liu Chaoyang's business empire.

Therefore, Liu Chaoyang probably forgot that he also had the Bishen Club investment project.

If I were to investigate the Azure Club myself.

It's easy to alert the enemy.

But there was another person who was very familiar with the Jade Club.

Even regulars at the Green Club.

This person is Zhao Ming!

......

Two days later.

I found Gu Yao.

When I saw Gu Yao again.

She has transformed into a hardworking, aloof female CEO.

When I saw Gu Yao, busy with work and dressed in a CEO suit.

This is the Gu Yao I remember.

I came to find Gu Yao to talk to her about Zhao Ming.

Zhao Ming has now been sent to a reformatory by Gu Yao for rehabilitation.

I want Zhao Ming to help me investigate the Green Club.

You'll have to come find Gu Yao.

When I entered Gu Yao's office.

She had just finished her work.

He then handed a document to the female secretary in front of him.

He added, "Strictly follow the requirements in the documents and don't act on your own."

The female secretary nodded and left the office.

At this point, only Gu Yao and I were left in the office.

Gu Yao saw me coming.

She put down her work, then got up and walked towards me.

"Lu Yi, why did you suddenly come to see me?"

"What's matter?"

I suddenly realized that Gu Yao's smile was different from before.

Her smile radiated confidence.

It seemed as if she had guessed that I would come to see her.

I got straight to the point with Gu Yao: "I want to meet Zhao Ming."

"What are you doing seeing him?"

"I need him to do something for me."

"Zhao Ming can help you with things? Shouldn't you be enemies? Why would you ask him for help?"

Gu Yao had a slight smile on her face as she scrutinized me with that appraising gaze.

I sensed that Gu Yao had changed.

But what exactly has changed?

I can't quite put my finger on it.

"I have met Lin Xia's biological father."

"I know."

Gu Yao replied in a rather relaxed tone.

This answer was somewhat unexpected.

Gu Yao actually knew about this.

Gu Yao stared at me and said, "I also know that Lin Tianwang humiliated you severely, but you didn't give him any face either. Instead, you punched him hard in the face in public and knocked him to the ground."

Suddenly, Gu Yao let out a giggle.

“Lu Yi, you’re incredibly bold. That’s Lin Tianwang, the founder of Xia Tian Group.”

"Xia Tian Group is one of the world's top 500 companies!"

"You even dared to hit Lin Tianwang, which completely makes a relationship between you and Lin Xia impossible!"

Suddenly, I seemed to understand why Gu Yao seemed so relaxed and confident.

In Gu Yao's eyes.

I'm now at the point of no return with Lin Tianwang.

Therefore, there is no way that Lin Tianwang would marry his daughter to me.

It became impossible for Lin Xia and me to be together.

Gu Yao looked at me, who remained silent.

She continued, "Tell me, what do you want Zhao Ming to do for you?"

Gu Yao noticed that I seemed reluctant to talk.

She sneered, "Lu Yi, do you think Zhao Ming would dare not tell me the details of the matter after you tell him the plan?"

After Gu Yao reminded me, I realized it too.

Given Zhao Ming's personality, he would indeed succumb to Gu Yao's tyranny.

So I spoke.

"I plan to have Zhao Ming help me investigate the Green Club."

After hearing the name "Azure Club".

Gu Yao's expression revealed three parts mockery and seven parts disdain.

"Whom did you send Zhao Ming to investigate for you in those frivolous places?"

"Liu Chaoyang".

"Oh! I see! Lin Tianwang destroyed all the evidence you painstakingly collected. Now you plan to regroup and continue investigating Liu Chaoyang's crimes?"

"Yes!"

This time, I was quite confident that Gu Yao would definitely help me.

But I never expected this.

Gu Yao actually rejected me.

"What does it have to do with me?"

Her rejection of me was almost exactly the same as her attitude towards me before.

I didn't expect it to happen in just two days.

Gu Yao's attitude towards me has changed so much.

I looked slightly taken aback.

Gu Yao glanced at me indifferently.

She said, "Lu Yi, what do you take me for? A tool to be summoned and dismissed at will?"

"I confessed my feelings to you first, but you kept dragging your feet and wouldn't accept."

"I can tolerate your ambiguous relationship with Lin Xia, and pretend I didn't see anything. I'll let bygones be bygones."

"But now, you're asking me for someone again, asking Zhao Ming to go to such a dangerous place to investigate Liu Chaoyang's crimes."

"......"

I stared at Gu Yao calmly, without saying a word.

After Gu Yao finished speaking.

suddenly.

The expression on her face softened, no longer serious, and she even smiled.

"Of course, I can give you a chance."

"You'd better come back to me now."

"Give up your company and stop thinking about building your own business on your own."

"I will help you investigate Liu Chaoyang's crimes."

I froze for a moment.

Because I never expected that Gu Yao would use this matter as a bargaining chip to negotiate with me.

Ultimately, Gu Yao still hadn't given up on me.

She always wanted me to come back to her.

It will return to its former state.

I am a loyal dog who obediently listens to her.

She can be summoned at will and dismissed at will.

But now Gu Yao has no one to fawn over her anymore.

So she felt very disappointed and unbalanced.

We urgently need to find someone to fill this gap.

I listened to Gu Yao's suggestion.

He suddenly gave a cold laugh.

"hehe."

The laughter was cold, causing the smile on Gu Yao's face to gradually disappear.

Gu Yao's face showed a hint of anger: "Lu Yi, what's the meaning of that smile? Are you mocking me?"

I said calmly, "Gu Yao, do you still remember Aunt Gu who has been dead for so long?"

"Her revenge is still pending."

"Do you really think all the things I'm doing are for me, or for you?"

"No, it's for Aunt Gu!"

Suddenly, Gu Yao glared at me angrily, as if in a fit of pique.

"Lu Yi, get out of here! My mother's affairs are none of your business, nor do you need to interfere, and you certainly don't need to avenge me!"
