After listening to Meng Father's lecture, Meng Qingyue called Meng Shuo Jing aside.
"Do you have any leads on the person behind this?"
"I should have some. I'll have someone investigate. It should be easier to investigate through Yan Yan, after all, this is targeting her."
"You tell Yan Yan to be careful too. It's best for her to stay at school for now until you find the person."
Meng Qingyue was very worried about Lin Yan's safety, as she saw Lin Yan as just a student, and dealing with such a person was very dangerous.
"I will tell her."
"But when exactly did you fall for Yan Yan? I remember you only met Yan Yan during your graduation trip." Meng Qingyue asked with some gossip.
"I fell in love with Yan Yan at first sight."
"I think you were smitten by her beauty. You'd met before, but you said Yan Yan was underage. What, was she an adult when you met her?"
"Sister, can you leave me some face!" Meng Shuo Jing smiled helplessly. How could he have known that his words would slap him in the face?
"Alright, I'll give you some face! But the person who sent the package still needs to be found out quickly. Someone who casually tracks our Meng family is quite bold!"
This was the first time Meng Qingyue had seen someone dare to make a move against the Meng family. She had to let this person know that their Meng family was not to be trifled with.
Lin Yan, who was being tracked here, was unaware that her relationship with Meng Shuo Jing had been discovered by his family. However, even if they knew, she wouldn't care, as they were serious about their relationship, and meeting the parents was inevitable.
However, Lin Yan was very busy during this period, so busy that she barely had time to contact Meng Shuo Jing.
Lin Yan had been roped in again for a highly confidential research project. Due to her exceptional talent, she was allowed to join this research ahead of time.
She was the youngest and had the lowest academic qualifications in the entire research institute.
Because the research started so abruptly, she only had time to call her family and Meng Shuo Jing to say that she would be very busy and wouldn't have much time to contact them.
However, as a complete novice at the research institute, Lin Yan was only assigned to organize documents. Her most important task now was to learn so that she could join the work as soon as possible.
This research was an unfamiliar field for Lin Yan, so she was learning with great joy. She felt that if she kept traveling through worlds like this, she could probably build a research institute on her own.
Lin Yan was very sensitive to numbers and had strong computer skills, so her position in this project gradually became more important.
As her work became more critical, it also meant she was getting busier. It wasn't until she had some free time that she realized she hadn't contacted Meng Shuo Jing in a long time.
She felt a little guilty. It was lunchtime, so she decided to call Meng Shuo Jing to check in.
When Meng Shuo Jing received Lin Yan's call, he was in a meeting with someone.
He excused himself to the other person and went to take the call. After speaking with Lin Yan, he returned to the table.
"You mentioned earlier that the person investigating me was Fu Yin?" Meng Shuo Jing was somewhat bewildered by what Fu Yin was thinking.
Perhaps it was because he was a normal person that he couldn't understand the mind of a madwoman.
"That's right, it was her." Liu Jin Cheng said, then handed some chat logs and recordings to Meng Shuo Jing.
"The person she hired knew they were investigating you. To avoid blame from the Meng family, Fu Yin saved all these records when she contacted him."
When Meng Shuo Jing wanted to investigate this matter, he didn't think of anyone else and directly contacted Liu Jin Cheng. After all, Liu Jin Cheng was familiar with him and Lin Yan, so it should be easier for him to investigate than others.
"So, what gave her the audacity to investigate me? The Fu family?" Meng Shuo Jing sneered.
"She's probably gotten too arrogant. Her investments in the past few years have earned her a lot of money, roughly around one billion," Liu Jin Cheng said, even he couldn't help but marvel at how much money this woman made.
"However, while I was investigating Fu Yin, I discovered that several other groups were also investigating her, including people from the military. Hasn't she done anything else dangerous?"
"Don't you remember your sister-in-law's school?" Meng Shuo Jing said with pride. "She had bodyguards hidden in the shadows when she came out last time."
"Is she that capable? Then this genuine daughter of the Fu family has really kicked a steel plate. But isn't sister-in-law a student? Why is she so important?"
"It's better for you to inquire less about some matters!" Meng Shuo Jing said earnestly.
"It's classified, I understand! But how do you plan to deal with this genuine daughter? Can I help in any way?" Ten billion yuan. Although some of it was in stocks and couldn't be fully cashed out immediately, it was still a huge sum of money.
If he could get a share, his little treasury would receive a large influx of funds.
"I'll contact you. No matter what, she should have to pay some price!"
After Lin Yan was on break from the research institute, she packed her things and went home directly, as she hadn't been home in a long time.
On her way home, the system reported to Lin Yan.
"Host, the male and female protagonists have met."
Since Xiao Bao was not lost, Xu Xian Rui had remained the heir of the Xu family. Thus, the second branch of the Xu family had not returned to the capital.
As a result, the male protagonist did not transfer to the female protagonist's school, and the plot of them being a bickering couple did not unfold.
This caused the male and female protagonists, who should have met three years ago, to only meet now.
"Oh, so how do they feel about each other?"
"Not bad. After all, the female protagonist is a kind and understanding rich young lady, and the male protagonist has not become the designated heir of the Xu family, so he is not as arrogant as in the original work."
"Is that so? Then won't there be no plot of them bickering? I actually wanted to see them fight and make up. Living with masks on, I feel tired for them!"
The ambitious second son of the family, disguised as a decadent scion of a wealthy family. The arrogant and condescending rich young lady, pretending to be kind, gentle, and approachable.
It was truly exhausting. The female protagonist, despite holding the script of rebirth, had confined herself to such trivial romantic affairs, striving to gain the approval of the powerful Fu family couple and those so-called noble elites.
It was such a waste of an opportunity. Although she realized she needed to possess more wealth and thus worked hard on investments, why couldn't she break out of this circle and aim for a larger one?
However, that was someone else's life, and she could live it however she pleased. As long as she didn't provoke her, she wouldn't interfere with how she lived her life!
