Wang Jiaojiao picked up the teacup on the table and threw it on the ground. If she couldn't have a good life, no one around her could either.

Now anyone can scheme against her. What was originally a mutually beneficial partnership has ended up leaving her with nothing but loss.

"If you don't give me an explanation for this, do you believe I'll go to Su Yanxi and expose you?"

Shen Shi'an looked at her and snorted coldly, "You go ahead and see if she believes you or me."

"Oh, so you had this planned all along."

Seeing his nonchalant attitude towards the matter, Wang Jiaojiao realized that she was the only one who had been tricked from beginning to end.

She had already secretly planted the seed of this idea in her heart.

"If I find something on you, I'll see if you can keep being so smug for a long time to come."

After saying that, Wang Jiaojiao slammed the door and left. He would never believe anything Shen Shi'an said again.

"Boss, this stalemate isn't a good thing. Besides, with President Su in the company, any schemes we have are useless."

The assistant was worried about the upcoming plans.

Shen Shi'an repeatedly made enemies for himself, forcing the interruption of every plan he made.

"Go and call President Su over. There's been a problem at the company."

As expected, Su Yanxi rushed to the office as soon as she heard the news.

"Shi An, what happened that made you call me over in such a hurry?"

Shen Shi'an sighed deeply, then waved his hand, feigning great distress.

The more she did this, the more anxious Su Yanxi became. She looked at the person in front of her but didn't speak for a long time.

"Tell me quickly, don't overthink it. We'll face anything together."

Little did she know, Shen Shi'an's gaze towards her from the shadows held a hint of greed.

"My company is facing business problems in another city, and I can't get away right now, so I can only trouble you."

"No problem, I'll get up and take care of it tomorrow."

Su Yanxi thought it was something serious, so when she returned to her office, she instructed her assistant to postpone her schedule.

Everything proceeded steadily according to Shen Shi'an's plan.

"Today I'm going to pay my respects to the Gu family's old rival." Shen Shi'an walked out with a beaming smile, full of confidence about what was to come.

He gathered everyone at the hotel, ostensibly as a get-together to strengthen their relationships.

In reality, he had already bribed someone inside to spread the word that the Gu family had something to hide.

"President Shen, I've heard that the Gu family has a lot of leverage over them. Do you know who exactly they are?"

"Mr. Lin, you're making me feel terrible. As an outsider, how would I know about the Gu family's affairs? It's just that..."

Shen Shi'an glanced around, then lowered his head and continued, "Gu Yannian did let something slip when she was drunk, but I don't know much more."

Once he revealed this, everyone at the banquet knew that Gu Jia might have leverage over them.

But no one dared to ask, for fear that the fire might burn them at any moment.

Besides Gu Jia's biggest enemy—Lin Yuan.

The Lin family didn't secretly exert any effort behind the scenes, so they'll definitely be the first to panic now that the fire has started.

“Listen to me, everyone. Since you all know that the Gu family has something on us, why don’t we join forces and nip this in the bud?”

As soon as Lin Yuan spoke, many people in the audience who had similar ideas expressed their willingness to join.

The news spread quickly and reached the Wang family, causing Wang Jiaojiao's father great anxiety.

They were afraid that the Gu family would have something on him and catch him off guard.

"Jiaojiao, do you still like Gu Yannian?"

"Of course I like him. Even if you try to stop us from being together, I'm still going to pursue him." Wang Jiaojiao thought her father was trying to stop her again.

Sitting on the sofa with her legs crossed, she quickly refused. Every time Gu Yannian's father was mentioned, he didn't give her a good look.

"My assistant just called, and I think he said something that really makes sense." Mr. Wang sat in his seat and thought for a long time.

In the end, he could only place all his hopes on Wang Jiaojiao, but he couldn't show it too obviously.

"The only good news he can give you is what your company is going to do."

"I can bring you two together. Whatever help you need, I can help you too."

"really?"

Wang Jiaojiao felt somewhat uneasy about her father's sudden change.

Moreover, my father would never normally say such things, so he must be facing some difficulties now to express them directly.

"Are you kidding me?" She looked at her father's serious face, but felt a little helpless.

Wang Jiaojiao had always seen this expression on her father's face, and she had gotten used to it.

Then, Wang's father took a document from his hand and slowly moved it to the table.

“You found a similar document next to Gu Yannian, which contained incriminating evidence against everyone.”

Mr. Wang choked up a few times as he spoke, realizing that he was being used by his daughter and didn't know where to begin.

After much deliberation, he decided to hand it over to her. "As long as you find this document, I have a way to get Gu Yannian to marry you and hold a wedding for you right away."

Wang Jiaojiao looked at the documents on the table, thinking about how her mistake had caused problems with the project.

She doesn't dare to look Gu Yannian in the eye at the company anymore. Every time the two of them make eye contact, she thinks of that project from that day.

"You don't want me to cause trouble, do you?"

"No, it won't happen." Wang's father assured her repeatedly, but seeing that Wang Jiaojiao still refused to believe him, he had no choice but to tell the truth.

Wang Jiaojiao became somewhat solemn upon hearing this, after all, her fate was intertwined with that of her family's company; they were bound together by fate.

If something happens to the Wang family, then all her wealth and honor, or the respect she has for others, will disappear.

"Since you're willing to let us be together, it's just a document, I'll definitely find it for you."

She may not steal other people's secrets, but she can find out the secrets of the Wang family.

Anyway, the two of them will eventually become a family, so whether they get it sooner or later is just a matter of a word.

"Okay, if you need any help, just let me know."

Wang's father was uncertain about the matter, but since things had already come to this point, he had to continue this move.

If it weren't for rumors that the Gu family had something on them, he would never have agreed to this marriage.

"Dad, when I bring the documents, you can get ready to welcome a son-in-law."

This is the first time in so long that Wang Jiaojiao has been this happy about something.

Recently, things have been getting worse and worse, and it's rare that her father has relented and said she still has a chance.

“Daughter, I’ll wait for your good news at home. Just hand me the documents and I’ll give you the household registration book right away.”
