Chapter 624: Preemptive Arrangements

ation they had received previously, he arranged for someone to alert Ying Ao.When the vehicle they were in stopped in front of the factory gates, no zombies appeared. He jumped out of the car and look..."No problem, see you at the usual place after work. I have something to ask you too."

Yunshi Rain received the call and was not surprised at all. She spoke directly,

"Then we'll meet up and talk."

After hanging up the phone, Zhang Xuetao's handsome eyebrows furrowed. He had actually expected Yun Siyu to ask that question, and he didn't intend to hide it anyway. He treated the other party as a friend he could talk to easily.

In the grand manor of Duan Dashao on the other side, everyone was busy preparing. After all, tomorrow, the infamous "Northeast Tiger," Zhang Fenglin, would be arriving for the engagement ceremony of Duan Lianyi and Zhang Xuetou. The importance of this union was evident, as both sides were making elaborate preparations to demonstrate their commitment.

The people in the household were busy, but that didn't mean Lianyi was. She was currently pacifying her father's eldest and second wives, because the two couldn't go out to broaden their horizons and were still a little resentful.

"Miss, for all the love I've shown you, you only think of Third and Fourth Sister, and never of me or your Aunt Chunxiao."

Xia Xin was holding a handkerchief in her hand, pretending to wipe away nonexistent tears from the corner of her eye, with an expression of reluctance.

Liàn Yī's lips twitched. One couldn't say Xia Xīn wasn't worthy of being from the Qingyi clan! Just looking at it, one would think that she was bullying a beauty.

The autumn cicada sat on a round stool and shook its head helplessly before speaking:

"Second Sister, don't cause trouble here. The young lady took me and Fourth Sister out because there is an important task. Besides, we are all Master's people. If we all run away with the young lady, what will happen to Master"

"You still feel sorry for me, old man! Besides, now that there are two fewer people, isn't the master able to spend more time with you all"

"Third Sister, only you would say that! Of course I know, I'm not being unwilling to let you go!"

Xia Xin's fox eyes rolled, where was there any tear Just now, it was just expressing dissatisfaction.

"It was then that ripples spoke,"

"Both aunties, don't be sad. There will be many opportunities to go out and see the world in the future. This time it's just not convenient for all of you to come with me."

"Don't worry, miss. Summer and I both know she's just teasing you. With all three of you gone, this house feels even emptier."

Chun Xia sighed and then said.

"Don't worry! Spring Dawn Auntie, even though we are leaving, you and Second Aunt still have very difficult tasks ahead of you."

Ripples said solemnly.

"What arduous task Tell me about it."

They all looked at the ripples, their playful mood from earlier gone.

The two aunts stayed at the Marshal's Mansion, one to accompany my father and the other to secretly keep an eye on Zhang Xuetao. I still don't trust him.

"And my bride course is ostensibly four years, but I'm going to military academy, which takes more time and energy. I definitely won't be able to attend to domestic matters or my fiancé. You guys have to be my ears and eyes!"

The ripples didn't hide anything, calmly said.

After Lian Yi finished speaking, the four aunts looked at each other, obviously wanting to say something.

Liàn Yī looked at the expressions of the four people, her eyebrows raised, and she directly asked:

"Looking at Fourth Madam's expression, did you discover something But it doesn't matter!"

"The master doesn't know about this yet. We just happened to find out, since you asked, we'll tell you, see how you want to handle it."

Chun Xiao said calmly.

"Don't worry, aunt. I won't do anything rash."

We accidentally discovered that Zhang Xuetou has a very amiable confidante, named Yunsiyu, who is a nurse at the church hospital. She is beautiful and well-regarded, having helped many impoverished people.

They became acquainted because Zhang Xuetou went to the hospital chapel for help, and Yun Siyu was there. She is articulate and knows how to speak and act appropriately. It seems she is unaware of Zhang Xuetou's identity and never deliberately tries to please him. There is nothing ambiguous between them; they just seem to be good friends who get along well.

They didn't do anything out of line, and we shouldn't make a big deal out of it. After all, everyone has one or two opposite-sex friends these days. Besides, you weren't engaged before, and we don't have the right to tell him to stay away from all women.

But once engaged, he becomes the Miss's fiancé. If he continues to be too intimate with that nurse, we also have grounds to reprimand him.”

The ripples told me that Yunsiyu had already started causing trouble. But instead of being angry, she said happily:

"Both aunties, this is good news for me."

"Miss's meaning is"

"I told you a long time ago, I don't like Zhang Xuetao. Marrying him now is just to help my father expand his influence and find an ally for our Duan family."

But if Zhang family is the one who betrays the engagement after, then whether it's breaking the engagement or going to war with them, we stand on the moral high ground. The public won't blame me, after all, compared to that Yun Si Yu, anyone can see the benefits of choosing me. The entire Duan family army would be my dowry.

The ripples played with the tea lid in her hands.

"The Zhang family isn't stupid, they definitely wouldn't let Zhang Xuetao make such a mistake. If he and Yun Siyu broke up and had no contact after that, how could we catch him"

Xia Xin, rubbing the handkerchief in her hand, asked.

"Second aunt, you must believe in the power of true love. I may be far away, but he has a deceitful woman by his side who is irresistible to any man."

"What Miss [Name] means is that that woman knows Zhang Xuetao's identity but pretends not to, in order to get close to him as an ordinary person and slowly make him fall for her."

Chunxiao's reaction was also very quick.

“Yes! Now that the news of our engagement is out, she'll definitely come up with a scheme to expose his identity, then pretend to be reluctant and play hard to get, showing that she doesn't care about the benefits Zhang Xuetao's status brings.

She even went out of her way to avoid Zhang Xuetao, but twist and turn, she would still appear by his side, as a strong and independent woman, earning more favor from Zhang Xuetao.

Liàn Yī smiled and said, "If it were her, she would do the same. After all, only by capturing a man's heart can she achieve her goals.

"Miss, now that you've said it, we understand. You want us to secretly monitor and collect information about their private interactions after you leave, and then confront them when you return."

Xia Xin's comprehension was top-notch, and she immediately clenched her fists, ready to fight.

"Yes, but you don't need to wait for me to come back. You guys need to figure out what has been going on behind the scenes these past four years. After all, catching them in the act still requires them to be in bed!"

After the second year I left, you started to have well-known journalists subtly spread these rumors, laying the groundwork. The messages could be vague, something Zhang Xuetao could deny, but it should leave people with the impression that he is a playboy.

Zhang Fenglin is not someone to be easily fooled. If I wait until I return to handle things, they can completely deny everything and claim that our Duan family is breaking promises and fabricating a story about his son's disloyalty just to call off the engagement.ale. She became aware and asked:"Are they right Are you saying you joined the ranks of the Beastmen and did all those bad things"A flicker of embarrassment crossed Wei's eyes before she quickly stuffe...
