"Let’s hold our weddings together, and, I want to invite her to the ceremony. I want her to see it with her own eyes, when I marry Jun Huang, right in front of her. This will sear her heart, it’s the best counterattack." Bai Sijia sneered.

Wouldn’t Ye Lu be heartbroken when she watched Jun Huang marry her, exchange rings with her?

Yuan Jiayin’s eyes lit up, "That indeed is a good idea, but how can our two families have a wedding together? Even though the Shang and Jun families have always been inviting each other to various banquets, that is only out of business courtesy."

"How hard can that be? Aren’t we best friends now? Let’s just become sisters, in name at least. I heard you don’t have parents. Let’s have my mom adopt you. Having a well-established maternal family would benefit you greatly too."

Bai Sijia thought that after marrying into the Jun family, she would need some help, especially since her own family wasn’t in the country.

Joining forces with Yuan Jiayin would benefit her. And it wouldn’t harm her to let Jiayin posture with her family name. After all, Ye Lu wasn’t easy to deal with. She would wait until she successfully married Jun Huang, and then slowly take care of her with Jiayin.

After all, she still held crucial evidence in her hands, hmph.

"That’s perfect, thank you, Sijia." Yuan Jiayin was obviously overjoyed

Her lowly status had always been a lamented matter. With the prestige of Bai Sijia’s family behind her, things could only get better.

"The wedding is our responsibility." Anyway, Jun Huang didn’t care about wedding matters, hadn’t asked at all about it. "Let’s get married as sisters!"

After sorting out the details, these two women started behaving like sisters, often coming and going together, and calling each other "sister" in front of the media.

...

Ye Lu and Yan Yu took a flight. She settled Yan Yu into a sanatorium in City X before coming back.

Before leaving, Yan Yu said that she left Ye Lu’s phone number at the hospital, and someone might come looking for her at the hospital. She asked Ye Lu to receive them when that happened. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

Ye Lu thought that perhaps it was some old friend of hers and didn’t give it much thought.

After she returned, she immediately moved residence, and started to live a secluded life, covering her face with a hat and scarf every time she went out.

Hence, although the internet was abuzz with comments about her outrageous statements, she didn’t pay any heed. Collecting evidence from Dr. Du was already exhausting enough, who had time to care about such trivial matters? If those two women wanted to show off, let them.

With the passing months, her belly had grown substantially. She looked like five months pregnant even though it had only been little over three months.

The pregnancy had left her worn out, she no longer wanted to fret over other things. Anyway, Yuan Jiayin wouldn’t be able to carry on for much longer. Ye Lu had enough evidence in hand to deal a fatal blow to her.

On the other hand, the FSA company called saying that the negative news online wasn’t looking good.

She immediately understood and resigned voluntarily. Director Li was a good person, he believed that she contributed to their success in obtaining the bid, so he gave her a bonus of a hundred thousand.

The phone rang all of a sudden. Ye Lu looked and saw that it was from Third Young Master Jun.

She picked up the phone, surprised, and with mixed feelings.

"Yuanyuan is ready to go abroad. I plan to send him off, but some paperwork needs to be done. Prepare their identification documents, I’ll send someone to get them!" Jun’s cold voice came through the phone.

Disappointment crossed Ye Lu’s eyes, after a long while, she replied softly, "Okay."

Then she told him her address.

She waited for a long time but no one came. Seeing that it was afternoon, she went out to buy groceries.

Her new place was a small bungalow with a tiny courtyard, located in the old town area. It was very remote, journalists would certainly not find it, but for the same reason, living here wasn’t very convenient.
