Jian Wan’s arrival interrupted Fu Yuan’s thoughts. However, he wasn’t in the mood to talk or laugh with her.

He had helped the Jian family a lot in the past few years.

Jian Wan had tried to ask him more than once when they could get married. He never agreed. Every time they talked about marriage, Jian Yan would appear in his mind.

Once he thought of Jian Yan, Fu Yuan could not respond to Jian Wan’s proposal.

“I’m going upstairs to the private room to rest for a while. You can play with them downstairs alone. Oh right, don’t look for Yanyan. She’s not in a good mood and will be even more unhappy when she sees you.”

With that, Fu Yuan turned and left.

‘What do you mean by being even more unhappy after seeing me? Why are you asking me not to go over? Am I your fiancée or is she your fiancée?!’

Jian Wan looked at his back and was furious. However, her anger wasn’t targeted at Fu Yuan, but Jian Yan.

It was all Jian Yan’s fault. She shouldn’t have appeared!

Jian Wan returned to the banquet hall, still fuming. Lin Zhi walked over and asked, “Why isn’t Fu Yuan with you?”

“Mom… Jian Yan is back. Fu Yuan’s attitude towards me changed suddenly and he’s very passionate towards her. Do you think he’s already changed his mind?”

Lin Zhi was shocked. She could not accept the annulment of her daughter’s engagement with Fu Yuan.

“I saw that too, but wasn’t she with President Fu? Why did she attract Fu Yuan’s attention again?”

Over the past few years, Lin Zhi had been enjoying herself in high society and was no longer mocked as a mistress. However, this was only because of her daughter’s marriage.

“I don’t know. Maybe Brother Yuan is feeling nostalgic. Mom, what do you think I should do?” Jian Wan was confused.

“Wan’er, don’t panic. The more you panic, the more she will try to snatch him away. I will think of a plan for you.”

Lin Zhi muttered, “We can’t let Fu Yuan be with Jian Yan, nor can we let President Fu be with her. She loves to bear grudges, so she must still bear grudges against the Jian family and us. She will definitely seek revenge when she reaches a high position.”

Lin Zhi took a few steps forward as a glint flashed across her eyes. She had an idea.

“Wan’er, didn’t you tell me before that Fu Yuan complained to you that Jian Yan was very particular and insisted on not sleeping with him before the wedding? He’s not as obedient as you. I understand men. He must have never gotten Jian Yan. That’s why he can’t forget her.”

“Mom, what do you mean? I can’t do that!”

Jian Wan’s expression changed as she shook her head furiously.

“That’s the only way.”

“Also, Jian Yan took a photo of you. Don’t you want to take revenge? You have to take it back and upload it online.”

“By then, her reputation will be ruined. Fu Yuan will have her and he won’t have any feelings for her anymore. There’s no way Fu Li would marry her after that. It’s killing two birds with one stone.”

“Mom, I can’t bear to…”

Jian Wan struggled. She bit her lip and her hands trembled.

“You can’t be so narrow-minded. You’ll only feel at ease after you completely destroy Jian Yan’s reputation.

Think about it. If Jian Yan really gets together with Fu Li, she will still be above you even if you successfully marry Fu Yuan in the future!”

Lin Zhi looked at her daughter with heartache, but her words were cruel and heartless.

Jian Wan said weakly, “Mom, don’t say any more. Dad must still hate her. As long as he hates her, I won’t be completely suppressed by her.”

Her mother smiled wryly.

“Your father also saw Fu Li’s attitude towards Jian Yan. Just now, he asked me if I should mend our relationship with Jian Yan. This way, our relationship with the Fu family will be closer and we will gain even more benefits. He forgot about Jian Yan selling her family’s shares and almost destroyed the Jian Group. We can’t count on him.”

Jian Wan was in disbelief. “How could that be? If it wasn’t for my relationship with Fu Yuan, the Jian family would have gone bankrupt long ago. How could Dad be so stupid?”

“That’s just who he is. He prioritizes benefits the most. If not for the fact that I know him well, I’m afraid there would have been a few illegitimate children.”

“Wan’er, listen to me. Otherwise, our decades of efforts will go down the drain because of Jian Yan.”

Jian Wan lowered her head. A moment later, she raised her head and said, “Okay, I’ll do it! Fu Yuan just happened to go upstairs to rest. I just need to drug Jian Yan and lure her over.”

“But I don’t know if Fu Yuan will touch her. Maybe he won’t.”

Lin Zhi patted her head and handed her a pill. “Of course, you have to drug Fu Yuan too.”

Jian Wan trembled as she took the medicine.

“So, how will we drug Jian Yan and lure her into the room?”

“There’s no need for you to do anything. Mom can do it. Oh right, you have to go up and place this pinhole camera properly.”

Jian Wan took the pinhole camera from Lin Zhi, hid it in her bag, and boarded the elevator with a determined expression.

Lin Zhi smiled in satisfaction..
