“Shall we continue?” Song Yan smiled and watched her.
Zhang Yue snapped back to reality, pulled down her hat even further to conceal her face, and said, “Can I not go?”
“No.” This time, Song Yan’s attitude was particularly firm. He grabbed Zhang Yue’s wrist and dragged her towards Lin City No.i High School.
When they arrived, the school had just finished classes, and students were streaming out of the school gate.
It was evident that, after a whole day of intense studying, everyone was looking forward to the moment of dismissal. Each face radiated a happy and brilliant smile.
Standing under a willow tree not far from the entrance, Zhang Yue felt a stark contrast between her and the students. In just one day, it seemed like she could no longer go back to their side.
While she was lost in her thoughts, a familiar voice sounded at the school gate.
Zhang Yue suddenly looked up and saw Wen Miao intimately holding Mei Shu’s arm as they walked out together.
“Shu’er! You really don’t have to worry about me. The wound on my face will heal in a few days. It’s fine!”
Mei Shu clearly didn’t believe her. She raised her hand and gently covered the wound on Wen Miao’s face. She sighed helplessly. “Let me send you home, okay?”
“Oh, no need!” Wen Miao playfully clung to Mei Shu’s hand. “You go and do your own thing; no need to distract yourself for me.”
“Alright then, when I have some free time in a few days, I’ll treat you to a meal.” Mei Shu smiled and bid her farewell, then got into the car that had been parked by the street for a while.
Wen Miao watched the car disappear into the distance. Her smile faded, replaced by a serious expression.
In the distance, Song Yan stood side by side with Zhang Yue, seemingly casually exclaiming in a low voice. “Their relationship is really good. It’s fine if she is willing to take risks for Mei Shu, but why does she have to drag you into the water, making you the one suffering the most?”
“Don’t say that. Miaomiao wouldn’t do that.” Suppressing the bitterness in her heart, Zhang Yue firmly retorted.
Song Yan sighed deeply and suddenly grabbed her wrist. “Want to follow them and see?”
“Huh?” Zhang Yue lifted her head slightly and saw Song Yan looking at her with a pair of narrow eyes. Startled, before she could refuse, she was quietly pulled along behind Wen Miao.
Not long after, Wen Miao walked into the same alley as yesterday.
Restless, Zhang Yue was about to rush in to warn Wen Miao about the potential danger, but she saw a figure following closely behind, entering the alley first.
At first, Zhang Yue couldn’t see clearly, but later, she discovered that the person who entered after Wen Miao also appeared in the video last night.
What if Wen Miao is in danger now?
Without thinking, Zhang Yue was about to follow into the alley.
Quick to react, Song Yan grabbed her and covered her mouth, his tall figure enveloping her in his embrace. “Don’t go. Watch a bit more. If something really happens, your friend will call for help.”
But what if Wen Miao can’t speak like she couldn’t yesterday?
Zhang Yue was anxious. She kicked backward abruptly, hitting Song Yan’s abdomen directly.
With a muffled groan, Song Yan’s body gradually slid down, and the force restraining her loosened.
Zhang Yue didn’t even dare to look back. All she wanted to do now was to save Wen Miao.
“Come back!” Kneeling on the ground, Song Yan, in pain, bent over and covered his stomach. Frustrated and breathless, he shouted.
But Zhang Yue paid no attention. She ran into the alley, which was eerily silent with no sounds.
She was about to call out Wen Miao’s name loudly when she heard a familiar female voice from a corner.
“I’ve inquired. Recently, she is indeed preparing to take over the businesses of the Chen and Yu families. However, I couldn’t find out exactly how she plans to do it. But I brought another piece of information that might be valuable to you.”
“What information? Hurry up!” The man was anxious, holding his phone for recording.
Wen Miao cleared her throat, breathing nervously. “Mei Shu told me that she has evidence in her hands, proving that Shen Yuan obtained the position of Shen Family’s president through illegal means. If Shen Yuan dares to act recklessly, she’ll give this evidence to the police.”
“What kind of evidence?” The man asked urgently.
“It seems to be a recording?” Wen Miao was unsure. “She only told me this today. But we agreed to have dinner together in a few days, and by then, I can ask more carefully.”
The man squinted his eyes and said menacingly, “If you see the so-called evidence, find a way to get your hands on it. Otherwise, you know the consequences.”
“I know! 1’11 do my best! Don’t hurt me! Otherwise, you won’t get anything!” Wen Miao leaned against the wall, looking uneasy. She resembled an innocent little rabbit trying to blackmail the big bad wolf with its only bargaining chip.
The man chuckled evilly, raising his hand to stroke the wound on her cheek that hadn’t fully healed. “Of course, President Shen has given orders. You can temporarily be an undercover agent next to Mei Shu.. Otherwise, do you think I would spare you?”
