Upon seeing Yingying in such a sorry state, Xu Wen felt considerably better. Then, with disdain, she said, “You better co up with a plan to get rid of that

Song Fan. Our family won’t support idlers.”

She pushed aside Yingying’s hair and looked at the disgusting face in front of her. After wrinkling her brow, she withdrew her hand lazily and said, “But I still have to thank you. If it weren’t for you telling , I wouldn’t have known that Song Fan has already been recognized in the Gu Group. It looks like I need to act quickly. At the very least, we need to get engaged first. I can’t let that Song Fan take advantage.”

Upon watching her daydreaming, Yingying coldly snorted inwardly. Now, seeing Xu Wen was like looking at her past self. She knew Gu Chen wouldn’t be interested in such a woman, even if she was the heiress of the Xu family. But what if it were presented to her with the background of the Xu family? Yingying pursed her lips; she knew she needed patience; so things couldn’t be rushed.

She moved her arm, which was tainted with poison, closer to Xu Wen and then continued, “Song Fan has always been a woman who likes to seduce others, but you also know she is violent. Even with bodyguards, it’s not guaranteed they can defeat her. So, we need to outsmart her.’

“Hmm?” Xu Wen gestured for her to continue.

Yingying then put on her mask and began explaining her plan.

In the lounge of the Gu Group, Song Fan looked aningfully at Gu Chen. “I didn’t expect you to have a fiancée. But you don’t know how to cherish a rare beauty.”

“Are you jealous?” Gu Chen, with a burning gaze, took her hand. “I was still a fetus at that ti. You can’t bla , can you?”

Song Fan quickly withdrew her hand, then grabbed his wrist to check his pulse, imdiately shifting the topic. “It seems that yesterday’s antidote worked well. The poison you inhaled has been neutralized, but you’re still weak. You should rest more.”

“If you bla , I won’t be able to rest peacefully.” Gu Chen smiled.

Upon feeling a bit speechless, Song Fan pulled back her hand, but he firmly held onto it. “I didn’t have a fiancée before, and my only fiancée is you, right? Since we have a partnership, you can’t back out now, can you, Miss Fiancée?”

“Let go!” Song Fan glimpsed the secretary approaching with tea and tried to retract her hand, but Gu Chen tightened his grip.

“If it weren’t for you being poisoned, do you think I…” Song Fan gritted her teeth.

But Gu Chen continued to smile, “I don’t believe you. You definitely wouldn’t.”

His words left Song Fan completely speechless. Upon seeing her deflate, Gu Chen finally released his grip. “The Xu family is also one of the four major families in the capital, and we have had deep cooperation with the Gu Group. My mother and Ms. Xu’s mother had a good relationship, leading to this verbal agreent. I only t Xu Wen three tis after reaching adulthood—the first two tis at banquets in the capital and the third ti just now.”

Song Fan quickly caught the key point and raised an eyebrow, asking, “So, were you often together before adulthood?”

Gu Chen sighed and smiled helplessly, taking the tea from the secretary. “To be precise, it was before I turned 16, while my parents were still around. The relationship between the two families was good, and we often interacted.”

He didn’t elaborate on what happened afterward, but his tone sounded sowhat lancholic. Song Fan knew his parents were a sensitive topic for him. She couldn’t imagine a teenager single-handedly managing the vast Gu family and successfully running the family business, especially under such circumstances.

Wanting to break the awkward atmosphere, she said, “So, are you planning to call off the engagent?”

“Of course not,” Gu Chen said confidently. “Since I said you are my fiancée, I naturally won’t break off the engagent.”

This ti, Song Fan didn’t want to continue this topic. She realized that Gu Chen, when he wasn’t serious, could be quite frivolous. She quickly extended her hand, making a gesture for a pause. “Stop! I ca here today to discuss sothing serious with you.”

Gu Chen poured her a cup of tea, gesturing for her to continue.

“The person who fought with in the underground should be a woman. The Gu family’s surveillance didn’t capture much. She probably knew the location of the surveillance caras from A Li. She entered your room, most likely by climbing through the window.” Song Fan earnestly shared the information she had. “Also, I noticed she was wearing an earring, and I injured her arm.”

Gu Chen contemplated for a mont, then shook his head. “Unfortunately, these clues don’t lead to much. We didn’t find her fingerprints at ho, and she probably tampered with her hands. It seems quite professional.’

“I suspect soone.” Song Fan took a deep breath and finally expressed her thoughts. “I suspect that person is Li Lan..”
