Wan Rou took a car to the cafe mentioned in the email. In a small private room, a middle-aged man was sitting there.
âWho are you?â Wan Rouâs voice trembled, as she had never seen much of the world.
âSomeone who wants to earn money.â The middle-aged man smiled until his face trembled. âWe know that youâre living in Old Master Junâs house now. Thereâs an old saying that goes, the pavilion closest to the water enjoys the moonlight first. Miss Wan, do you understand what I mean?â
âContinue.â Wan Rou forced herself to calm down and listened to the man continue.
âWe can help you become Madam Jun.â The middle-aged man cut to the chase.
âHow can you help?â Wan Rouâs heart raced.
âYou donât have to worry about that. After the matter is done, we want a billion dollars. Iâm sure youâve seen how much assets Jun Shiling has. The actual situation will only be more and not less.â The middle-aged man counted. âYouâll definitely make a profit.â
âWhat do you want me to do?â
âThe first step is of course to destroy Jun Shilingâs wife.â The man smiled, looking sinister.
âDestroy?â Wan Rou was shocked by the cruelty in the manâs eyes.
She had thought of snatching Jun Shiling away, but she had never thought of harming anyone.
The man seemed to have seen her hesitation. âThink carefully. If this succeeds, youâll have hundreds of lifetimes of glory, splendor, and wealth.â
âI⦠Let me think.â Wan Rou bit her lower lip.
After a while, the number on the email and the peerless Jun Shiling made her lose her rationality.
Wan Rouâs voice trembled. âYou need meâ¦â
Before she could finish speaking, the phone rang, startling Wan Rou, who was already flustered.
Wan Rou picked up the phone. âHello, Auntie Li.â
âHey, Xiao Rou, I heard that you went to university in Beijing. When are you going back to town? The money your grandfather left for you is still with me.â
âWhat money?â Wan Rou was a little confused.
âYour grandfather left you thirty thousand dollars for your school fees. Your grandfather saved some money when he guarded the factory at night. Arenât you staying in school? He didnât say it because he was afraid that you would be worried about him. Now that youâre going to university, itâs time to return the money to you.â
Auntie Li spoke for a long time, but there was no sound from Wan Rou. Auntie Li called out a few times.
Wan Rou replied with a choked voice, âThank you, Auntie Li. Iâll be back in two days.â
âMiss Wan, this is the plan.â The middle-aged man handed a document to Wan Rou.
Wan Rou stood up and walked out of the cafe with red eyes.
Old Master Wan had gone to the battlefield many years ago and had suffered many cold leg injuries.
Every time Wan Rou went home to stay, she would find that Old Master Wanâs leg was swollen. She thought that her grandfather had caught a cold while sleeping.
Unexpectedly, Grandpa had gone to guard the factory behind her back.
At this moment, all the teachings that Old Master Wan had taught her since she was young seemed to have come from a hidden corner.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Under Grandpaâs actions, she suddenly faced her own ugliness and despicableness.
Standing under the sunlight, Wan Rouâs tears fell.
Eighteen years ago, Old Master Wan had picked her up from the streets and given her her first life.
Eighteen years later, even though Old Master Wan had passed away, he had given her a new life.
In the manor, after hearing the news from Lin Jing, Jun Shiling was silent for a moment before replying to Lin Jing.
âAsk her to move out of the courtyard and distribute the compensation that the country gave to Old Master Wan for five years to her.â
âYes, Young Master.â
Jun Shiling hung up the phone and walked towards Xia Wanyuan, who was painting not far away.
âBaby, itâs you, right?â Jun Shiling hugged Xia Wanyuan from behind.
He did not have such patience. The plan he had given Lin Jing was not like this.
Furthermore, Old Master Wan had been poor his entire life. The money he earned from working had been used to pay Wan Rouâs school fees and living expenses. Where did he get his remaining savings?
Xia Wanyuan turned around. âI only pushed her.â
The choice was still with Wan Rou.
âBesides, in the end, it was Old Master Wan who pulled her back.â
Looking at Xia Wanyuanâs indifferent expression, an indescribable feeling arose in Jun Shilingâs heart.
âBaby.â Jun Shiling rested his forehead on Xia Wanyuanâs.
âWhatâs wrong?â Xia Wanyuan put down the brush in her hand, afraid that the ink would stain Jun Shiling.
âWhy are you so good?â Jun Shiling seemed to sigh from the bottom of his heart.
She had the most tenacious edge, but she also had the softest kindness.
âIâm not as good as you say.â Xia Wanyuan hugged Jun Shiling back. âIâm not a god. At most, Iâll help them when I have the strength.â
âWhat about when you donât have any strength left?â
âWhen I have no strength left, itâs enough to love you.â
The corners of Jun Shilingâs lips curled up, and the rest of his words were drowned in the lips.
