"Yes." Luo Yusheng did not deny it and explained the reason.

“Even if Dad is soft-hearted, someone with this kind of criminal record is no longer suitable for the sales department. After you’ve been assigned clients, you can transfer to the logistics department and do a more relaxed job.”

She didn't voice her suspicions; there was no need to discuss these matters with Luo Zhengdong and upset him before she had investigated the situation thoroughly.

Luo Zhengdong nodded in agreement: "Even if you don't mention it to your secretary, that's what I was planning to do too."

He said with satisfaction, "You've grown a lot."

Luo Yusheng said playfully, "I already said I will study hard and try to help you retire early so I can take my mother around the world."

Luo Zhengdong chuckled: "Compared to that, you should focus on your studies first."

Even without him saying so, Luo Yusheng would study diligently.

With everything from her past life still vivid in her mind, she would never repeat the same mistakes.

Luo Yusheng lowered her eyes, nodded emphatically, and said, "Of course."

She studied late into the night on Sunday, and on Monday, yawning, she entered the classroom through the back door. As she passed Ji Tingxiao's desk, she caught a glimpse of him texting Manager Liu, asking him to meet her at their usual spot at noon.

The same old place? The noodle shop from last time?

If it really was a noodle shop, then even if she followed them there, she wouldn't be able to hear their conversation.

No, we need to think of another way.

She thought about it all morning and came up with the safest way: find a younger student, give him a reward, and have him pretend to go eat noodles and record their conversation.

Although there is a risk of being forced to reveal one's true identity, either way, it will alert the enemy.

In the end, she did it anyway; there was no better way.

Following Luo Yusheng's instructions, the classmate entered the store one after the other with Ji Tingxiao and sat down in a seat close to him.

Try to keep the phone with the voice call on as close to Ji Tingxiao as possible so that Luo Yusheng on the other end of the call can hear their conversation clearly.

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Manager Liu spoke first: "The latest batch of goods has arrived, so please make the payment as soon as possible."

He lowered his voice: "Once this is done, no more can be done."

Ji Tingxiao paused in his payment, then asked in confusion, "Now is a great time to make money, why not continue?"

Manager Liu explained, "The company has become suspicious of me. They've started sending people to take away my clients. I plan to run away after I finish this deal."

He irritably lit a cigarette.

Ji Tingxiao was blinded by greed and didn't take his words seriously. Just as he was about to comfort him and ask him to continue making money for him, his phone notified him of a new message.

It read: "Luo Yusheng already knows about your affairs, do not make any deals."

His pupils contracted, and a chill ran up from the soles of his feet, quickly spreading throughout his body.

He instinctively called back to confirm who had sent the text message, but the other party did not answer.

Better safe than sorry, he told Manager Liu, "Let's get together another day."

Then, they quickly left the noodle shop.

Back at school, Luo Yusheng saw that his face was frighteningly pale, and he was so absent-minded that he didn't even realize he had bumped into someone.

She stepped forward, feigning concern, and asked, "Your face is almost the same color as the wall behind you, what happened?"

Ji Tingxiao's lips moved, countless questions he wanted to ask, but each one was suppressed by a suspicion.

If Luo Yusheng was the one who sent him that warning text message, then all the current tests will become evidence.

He still needs to test the waters, but he must be extremely cautious.

"There's a really good noodle shop lately, shall I take you there sometime?"

After he finished speaking, he observed Luo Yusheng's expression, trying to find clues from her face.

Luo Yusheng casually replied, "Sure. You've been skipping school for lunch lately, always going to that noodle shop? It must be really good, you've been there so many times."

Her answer was perfectly correct.

Ji Tingxiao wanted to test her again, but she was no longer cooperating: "Send me the address of the noodle shop, I'll try it when I have time."

He watched Luo Yusheng's retreating figure, his brows furrowed.

Luo Yusheng returned to her seat and sent the recording to her secretary.

The secretary replied to her just before school ended: "We have found out that Manager Liu was privately reselling company goods. We are just waiting to catch them red-handed when they make the transaction."

Luo Yusheng immediately replied, "I'm going to arrest people too."

The secretary replied quickly this time: "No, it's too dangerous on site. If anything happens to you, we won't be able to explain it to President Luo."

“I’ll talk to my dad. I’m sure he’ll be willing to let me gain more experience.”

Luo Yusheng added another firm message: "I must go."

The secretary had no choice but to say that if Luo Zhengdong agreed, she wouldn't object.

The following evening was the transaction time agreed upon by Manager Liu and Ji Tingxiao. The secretary, accompanied by several pre-arranged bodyguards, arrived as scheduled to pick up Luo Yusheng.

But they happened to run into Jiang Moche, who was there for tutoring.

She asked in confusion, "What about Jiang? Should we send him home first?"

Luo Yusheng shook her head: "It's probably too late to send him. I also forgot to tell you not to come to tutoring. Why don't you go back first?"

Jiang Moche deduced from their brief conversation that something big was about to happen tonight, and his intuition told him to follow Luo Yusheng.

He refused the suggestion to go back and asked in return, "Where are you going?"

Luo Yusheng had to leave immediately and didn't have time to explain to him. She gestured for him to get in the car: "If you want to know, just come with us. Just don't get out of the car."

In the car, Luo Yusheng briefly explained what had happened.

“My dad is still working overtime at the company. As soon as he catches someone, he will bring them directly back to the company.”

Manager Liu paced back and forth at the transaction location, anxiously waiting for Ji Tingxiao and the other buyers.

But no one came.

He tried calling, but no one answered. Manager Liu's expression changed.

His steps grew increasingly frantic, and he pulled the roller shutter up and down in his agitation, making the goods inside appear and disappear intermittently.

The secretary kept a close eye on the goods and said to Luo Yusheng, "Look at Manager Liu's face, it's extremely ugly. I'm afraid if we wait any longer, he'll run away."

She unbuckled her seatbelt: "Now take some men over there and arrest him."

Luo Yusheng agreed with her decision and was about to unbuckle her seatbelt when Jiang Moche stopped her: "To be on the safe side, you wait in the car."

She asked in confusion, "What?" Then she frowned and said, "I have to go."

She wants to catch them herself!

“I’ll go.” Jiang Moche said logically, “I and the others are more than capable of rounding up Manager Liu. If you go, things will get complicated if he catches you.”

Luo Yusheng wanted to speak, but Jiang Moche held her wrist, his expression serious: "Trust me, I can handle it."

The secretary was also worried that something might happen to Luo Yusheng during the arrest, so she and Jiang Moche persuaded Luo Yusheng to stay in the car.

Luo Yusheng was persuaded by them and sat in the car watching the two men walk toward Manager Liu with their bodyguards.
