CHAPTER 271: CHAPTER 272: TRYING TO PROBE XING CHEN’S HEART

Upon seeing the contents of the message, Ran Yingqian’s face turned pale instantly.

The knuckles gripping the phone also turned white.

She... no longer wanted to be beaten, and she didn’t want her whole life to be ruined by that man!

Immediately turning off the phone, Ran Yingqian took a deep breath and looked at Ding Jia.

"Fine, I agree to cooperate with you. But I have one condition."

"Let’s hear it," Ding Jia raised an eyebrow and said casually.

She knew that someone like Ran Yingqian, whose heart was filled with too much hatred and unwillingness, was a wise choice for cooperation.

"You have to find a way to deal with Gu Beichuan for me." Almost through gritted teeth, she uttered those three words, Ran Yingqian truly hated him to the core!

Hearing this, Ding Jia immediately stubbed out her cigarette and snorted, "Isn’t that simple? Just throw Ran Xiangsi to Gu Beichuan for a few days of fun, wouldn’t that solve it?"

At those words, Ran Yingqian was momentarily stunned.

Right! Why hadn’t she thought of that before?

If Ran Xiangsi was ruined by Gu Beichuan, Gu Beichuan would definitely cling to Ran Xiangsi, and Xing Chen surely wouldn’t want Ran Xiangsi anymore!

Thinking of this, Ran Yingqian’s face quickly showed a sinister smile.

"You’re right! So what should we do? Where can we find someone to kidnap Ran Xiangsi?"

Saying things like a whirlwind, Ran Yingqian really couldn’t wait even a single day!

"Do we still need to do it ourselves?" Ding Jia stomped hard on the cigarette butt she had thrown away earlier, grinding it to ashes.

Ran Yingqian looked at Ding Jia in confusion, not understanding what she meant by that.

If they didn’t do it themselves, it meant someone else wanted to deal with Ran Xiangsi?

Seeing Ran Yingqian’s clueless expression, Ding Jia spat at her in her heart but patiently explained outwardly.

"I heard that our school beauty, Lou Xinyu, also likes Xing Chen. Let her handle it, won’t that be enough? Whatever happens afterward, it won’t have anything to do with us."

Before coming, Ding Jia had already calculated everything.

She didn’t want to show up herself, so she came to find Ran Yingqian to talk to Lou Xinyu about this.

Once it’s settled, she could sit back and enjoy the benefits, so why not?

Nodding continuously, Ran Yingqian soon had another question, "But... how do we make Lou Xinyu listen to us?"

"Isn’t that simple? I’ll teach you!" Saying this, Ding Jia leaned in closely and started whispering her plan to Ran Yingqian.

...

Emperor’s Headquarters Building.

Lou Xining stood heavily at the foot of the building.

Looking up at the majestic structure, his heart was a mix of feelings.

He never would have thought that his sister was actually with Xing Chen...

The third wheel, despised by everyone, just like a rat crossing the street. He really couldn’t understand why his sister would want to be that rat crossing the street?

And grandfather, did he really think the family’s decline could be saved just by maintaining a marriage?

Lou Xining might be the only clear-headed person in the Lou Family right now.

So he came to the Emperor to feel out Xing Chen’s thoughts.

It just so happened that Xing Chen had just finished a meeting that afternoon and met with Lou Xining in the office.

The two sat around the coffee table, with a secretary brewing Pu-erh tea nearby.

Boiling water poured into the Yixing teapot, and a burst of tea fragrance instantly filled the entire room.
