Chapter 841 -841: I Can Snatch Fourth Brother from Su Hongxing’s Hands
Cao Shiyu didn’t dare to make a rash decision, so she planned to first touch base with Liu Yuan and gauge his thoughts.
She looked around to make sure no one was nearby, then hid in the fire escape to call Liu Yuan.
The first call went unanswered, which was Liu Yuan’s habit.
Liu Yuan was cautious; he generally would only answer on the second call and kept the conversation brief, saying he was afraid of being wiretapped.
She had always thought that Liu Yuan was overly cautious. In the current situation, who would suspect that he was in Taicheng? Ye Qilan and Su Hongxing were even less likely to know that the real Liu Qingyin had been replaced and the one standing in front of them was her, Cao Shiyu.
Their plan was flawless, with absolutely no loopholes.
When the call connected, Cao Shiyu got straight to the point, “Sisi and Su Hongxing had a disagreement. Both are starting to doubt each other. Just now, Sisi’s tone when mentioning Su Hongxing was not good, like they had argued…”
“So what?” Liu Yuan cut Cao Shiyu off.
“This is a good opportunity for me to step in. If I can take Sisi away from Su Hongxing’s hands, it will make our plans go more smoothly in the future,” Cao Shiyu shared her thoughts.
“For now, you stay put and do as told!” Liu Yuan said before hanging up the phone.
**
Ye Qilan received the news of Cao Shiyu’s call with Liu Yuan right away. He waited for feedback from Age, and before long, Age informed Ye Qilan that they couldn’t trace Liu Yuan’s location due to the brevity of the call.
But if Cao Shiyu calls Liu Yuan again next time, locking on to Liu Yuan’s location wouldn’t be difficult.
“Liu Yuan is very cautious, seemingly afraid that someone will wiretap Cao Shiyu’s phone calls, so the conversation is always extremely short,” Age said regretfully, “We were just a bit too late.”
“It means that the ploy Amou and I came up with is still effective. Cao Shiyu is about to lose her patience,” Ye Qilan mused.
He had previously disliked Su Hongxing’s plan.
Now it seems that they need to stimulate Cao Shiyu from time to time to catch Liu Yuan, the big fish, sooner.
Although Su Hongxing felt it was a pity they couldn’t catch Liu Yuan, there was nothing they could do about it.
Their next plan was to have a cold war to give Cao Shiyu an opportunity to step in, while simultaneously looking for faults in Cao Shiyu’s actions. That way, Cao Shiyu would seek Liu Yuan’s help in a panic.
At four-thirty in the afternoon, before the end of the workday, Su Hongxing decided to leave work early.
Cao Shiyu had been keeping an eye on Su Hongxing’s movements and hurried over to ask as she saw her leaving, “It’s not time to clock out yet; why are you leaving now, sis? Aren’t you waiting for your husband?”
“No, seeing him annoyed, I’m heading back to Qingmu Garden first!” Su Hongxing said as she took Little Pudding by the hand and headed for the elevator.
Little Pudding occasionally looked up at Su Hongxing and curiously asked, “Did Mom and Dad have a fight?”
Upon hearing this, Su Hongxing laughed, “Adult matters are not a child’s concern.”
Little Pudding conceded obediently, not asking any further. As long as he could be with his mother, the little guy had no complaints.
Ye Qilan returned to Qingmu Garden an hour after Su Hongxing.
He ignored everyone in the living room of the Ye Family and quickly rushed upstairs.
Ye Lao looked at Cao Shiyu who followed in and asked, “Why is Sisi so worked up? Did the two of you have a fight?”
In his view, this woman probably was not unrelated to the matter.
Meanwhile, Ye Qilan, after storming upstairs, found Su Hongxing in the bedroom playing with Little Pudding. Ye Qilan picked up Little Pudding and handed him to Age, instructing Age to take Little Pudding downstairs to play.
