Bang...

Suddenly, a nerdy otaku almost forgot what he was doing and ran headfirst into a utility pole by the side of the road.

"Ow..." The man painfully touched his head, the collision almost knocking him out.

"Are you okay?" A passerby quickly helped him up.

"I'm... I'm fine." The man's face turned red with embarrassment as he hurriedly left.

Fang Yuan paid no attention to the gazes of the passersby and continued to wait at the entrance of the bar. Not until Bai Yifan's white Mercedes slowly approached did she rise from her Beetle. Upon sighting Fang Yuan, Bai Yifan's eyes revealed an irritation.

"Why are you here?" Bai Yifan said to Fang Yuan with annoyance.

"If I didn't come, wouldn't our cooperation be in vain?" Fang Yuan replied with a calm smile.

"You know about it?" Bai Yifan asked, curious.

"With Lin Chuan off to the United States, I'm guessing that our cooperation, including the matter of you deceiving Tang Yumeng, has been exposed." Taking a drag of her cigarette, Fang Yuan exhaled rings of smoke before continuing, "If you really do like Tang Yumeng, you shouldn't give up no matter what."

"She's almost come to hate me by now, do I still stand a chance?" As Bai Yifan angrily shut the car door, he said, "It was all because of your bad advice. If it weren't for you, Xiao Yu might not have come to despise me as she does."

"Her hatred for you isn't relevant," Fang Yuan scoffed with a smile. "She despises you because her love for Lin Chuan has deepened. All you need to do is create a rift between her and Lin Chuan. Then, you'll have your opportunity with Tang Yumeng."

Narrowing his eyes, Bai Yifan glared at Fang Yuan and said, "I don't want to hear a word now."

Having said this, Bai Yifan turned and entered the Extraordinary Bar, with Fang Yuan following unhurriedly behind. Bai Yifan didn't stop her but instead sat down at a booth. He thought Fang Yuan was no simple woman. Her intelligence work was incredibly precise—she had even managed to uncover Tang Yumeng's secret identity, as well as the fact that Lin Chuan had gone to the United States and that there was now a fissure in his relationship with Tang Yumeng.

"Alright then, what exactly do you want?" After pouring himself a glass of foreign liquor, Bai Yifan downed it in one gulp.

"You get your Tang Yumeng, and I get my Lin Chuan," Fang Yuan stated leisurely, tapping the ashes from her cigarette as she added, "It's really quite simple, yet you insist on making it so complicated."

"Simple?" Bai Yifan sneered. "If it's that easy, why don't you do it?

"That's the plan," Fang Yuan said with a smile.

......

City Committee.

Secretary Tang's return seemed to provide a sense of backbone to everyone. Lin Chuan also returned to the resting room; even though there wasn't much for him to do at the City Committee, he needed to be on call at all times as the official driver for the city's secretary.
