It wasn't time for her to turn hostile yet. Just as Qin Yue was breathing heavily and about to faint, she had to say something Meng Lei wanted to hear to stabilize his emotions. "I know, Zhang Wan'er and I are enemies. Don't forget, the man I like is Gu Xingdong. She's now vying for the same man, and when I was at my lowest, she ignored me. How could I possibly trust this outsider?
I'm only helping her now because you told me to. Zhang Wan'er always threatened me behind my back, saying she'd expose our secrets if I didn't do what she wanted. Can I allow that to happen? I've finally managed to live a good life, and I don't want this bitch to ruin it!"
Qin Yue's words were quite heartfelt. Meng Lei listened, finding them reasonable. He slowly released his hand and said with a headache, "We desperately needed an ally to increase the success rate of our plan. We found an ally, but I didn't expect this pawn to be so difficult to manipulate!
We can't let this situation continue. We shouldn't be led around by a woman. Tell me honestly, what is Zhang Wan'er planning these days? Since you sleep in the same room with her, she must have let slip some hints, right?"
Qin Yue's eyes darted, and she fell into thought. She didn't want to tell Meng Lei about Zhang Wan'er. If she did, she would offend Zhang Wan'er. How could she dare offend this young lady?
If possible, she hoped to find a place to settle down during this planning period. No one would be able to order her around like a dog anymore. Only by getting away from this complicated family could she live a good life. Staying in the capital would give her a real chance to turn her life around!
However, she couldn't offend Zhang Wan'er, nor could she offend Meng Lei! She didn't know how capable Meng Lei was, but before the Meng family fell, they...
Unable to bear the thought of her mistreated life, Qin Yue's hand trembled as she opened the door. She then closed it and buried herself under the covers in frustration, forcing herself to calm down first.

Qin Yue wasn't the only one troubled by this matter; Meng Lei also felt annoyed.
He admitted that in his haste to get revenge on the He family, he had rushed things and hadn't planned meticulously. He had left too many loose ends. If anyone in his plan made a mistake, his affairs would be exposed, and the He family would know who he really was!
It didn't matter if the He family knew who he was, but he hadn't yet avenged his parents! Thinking of this,
A murderous glint flashed in Meng Lei's eyes. He clenched his fists tightly, lowered his gaze, and after a long period of contemplation, he finally made a decision!
As long as these loopholes were resolved, no one would be able to discover his secrets. After all, Qin Yue was no decent person. With a simple excuse, such as her running off with her former lover, the He family probably wouldn't pay much attention. They might even be glad to be rid of such a troublesome person!
As for Zhang Wan'er, perhaps he could have a good talk with her. They could each get what they needed, without harming each other's interests. Then, if he could devise a plan that allowed for mutual benefit, this matter would be more or less settled.
