Xinjie City, Yan Chen's Garden Villa in City Center Garden.

Ai Li lay on Yanyan's bed, her face showing utter despair.

She swung her pink and green pigtails, then mournfully said, "Yanyan, what should we do?"

"Qiu Tu has now gained Elder Tang's favor, and our plan is a complete disaster, with no hope of turning the tables."

She stared blankly at the ceiling and then said, "And the most troubling part is... we still have no idea what merit Qiu Tu has achieved."

"I'm starting to suspect that the Speaker already knows exactly what merit Qiu Tu has accomplished."

"In this case, our capability will definitely disappoint the Speaker."

Yanyan looked at Ai Li, who had been barging into her room for four days straight, giving her no space at all, and felt deeply annoyed...

She wasn't giving her any space. The space she had reserved for Qiu Tu below was now useless!

Ai Li didn't have a master, but she certainly did!

Why couldn't Ai Li just be a little understanding?

And on top of that, not being understanding was one thing, but why did Ai Li have to keep bringing up Qiu Tu every single day?!

Wasn't that like drawing fishes in front of a cat that couldn't steal any fishy treats?

Nevertheless, Yanyan was currently the traitor, so she could only keep all this to herself and pretend to care about Ai Li.

With an angelic façade, she showed a troubled expression at the right moment, then sincerely said, "This really does seem difficult to handle..."

Ai Li was just casually venting, so when she heard Yanyan's words, she sighed deeply, "Everything is difficult at the beginning, and then in the middle, and also at the end."

"Who would have thought that just by being ordered to investigate Qiu Tu, I would end up implicating myself."

Seeing Ai Li distressed, Yanyan's clear, deer-like eyes gazed at her, then blinked gently.

After a moment, as if she had thought of something, she spoke up, "Ai Li... have you considered just asking Qiu Tu directly?"

"Ask Qiu Tu directly?" Ai Li paused, then quickly waved her hands, "What kind of suggestion is that. Qiu Tu isn't a fool; why would he tell just because I asked?"

Yanyan said, "Exactly, he wouldn't tell just because you asked."

"But... you could gamble with him."

Hearing about gambling, Ai Li suddenly got excited.

She flipped over, sitting up from the bed, then asked, "What kind of gamble?"

Ai Li's innocent face broke into a sweet smile, "It's simple... present something he's interested in, tempt him, and make a bet."

"If you win the bet, couldn't you then extract information from him?"

Hearing Yanyan's words, Ai Li felt slightly intrigued and started muttering softly, "What could he be interested in...?"

Mid-sentence, Ai Li, as if realizing something, looked up at Yanyan...

Yanyan clearly detected Ai Li's gaze. In that moment, her breathing hastened briefly. ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com

Then, just at that instance, Ai Li hastily shook her head, "No, no, no. How could I use you as a stake."

Hearing this, Yanyan also got a bit anxious.

But she was fearful of raising Ai Li's suspicions. So she... with a slight turn of her mind, immediately said, "Ai Li, are you afraid of losing to Qiu Tu?"

That statement hit Ai Li's sweet spot precisely! She leapt up and defiantly said, "I, Ai Li, the Gambling God, lose? That's simply a joke!"

"Since you've said as much, fine, I'll go and gamble with Qiu Tu!" After saying this, she paused, then reaffirmed her stance, "But don't worry, Yanyan. Even if I lose my underwear to Qiu Tu, I won't put you on the betting table!"

Yanyan: ???

With that said, Ai Li stood up, grabbed Yanyan, and they drove towards Qiu Tu's villa...
