My Scheming Little Devil-Chapter 1052: There’s No Need to Force Him

So, if there was any unusual activity on her part, he would definitely notice, and she would have to find a way to evade his surveillance.

After Ye Lu finished her meal, bored, she casually pushed aside the bowl and chopsticks when her eyes suddenly caught sight of the ceramic bowl. A sharp glint flashed across her eyes, and her mood lifted.

Right, if she didn’t have a sharp implement, she could make one herself.

Ye Lu pretended to get up nonchalantly and "accidentally" knocked into the tray on the small table.

After a clattering noise, the objects lay shattered on the ground. Her face turned pale as she pretended to be startled and sat on the floor. Taking advantage of the moment she bent down, she used her body to block the camera’s view and quietly slipped a shard into her clothing pocket.

Soon, Gu Yan came running down with a ’thud, thud, thud’, and cleaned up the shards.

Ye Lu’s eyes darkened; indeed, she was right in her guess that he had installed a surveillance system; otherwise, how could he have discovered she had broken something so promptly.

Although she had now obtained a shard, it was still not enough to subdue him. She needed to come up with a perfect plan.

...

Gu Yan dumped the shards into the trash can and walked back to his study, his expression calm.

Actually, Prince Ilid secretly searching for Ye Lu had him worried as well.

Prince Ilid could surely mobilize the government’s formidable search departments, and frankly, Gu Yan knew he couldn’t hide Ye Lu for much longer without her being discovered by these powerful entities.

Therefore, he had to reach his objective before they discovered that Ye Lu was detained by him.

Gu Yan picked up the phone and called his godfather, Su Feiman, to inquire about Third Young Master Jun’s progress in the Golden Triangle.

The godfather raised an eyebrow, "What are you planning to do?"

"Of course, help you out, godfather. I know you’ve always wanted to bring him and Hua Yiren together, and now I’ve found an opportunity," Gu Yan said with a strange smile.

"I can’t force him, and you’re even less likely to."

"Ha, I don’t need to force him. When he has no other options, he will naturally jump in."

The godfather laughed heartily, not asking for details of the plan: "It seems you’re very confident. Alright, no harm in telling you."

The godfather told Gu Yan the approximate location of Third Young Master Jun and what he was currently dealing with.

After listening, Gu Yan’s lips curved upward – he already had a plan in mind.

Putting down the phone, Gu Yan immediately instructed a subordinate to book a flight ticket to that place. After a six or seven-hour flight, that night the subordinate had arrived in the city and set out for the port.

After receiving the message, Gu Yan scoffed coldly and walked into his study.

He turned on his computer, cut out a part of the surveillance video from the basement, and sent it to Third Young Master Jun.

...

Third Young Master Jun was staying in a small coastal town not far from the Golden Triangle.

The team he led primarily acted as an information-gathering and spearhead force, penetrating the most dangerous core areas to collect the most confidential and timely intelligence, relaying it back to the outside United Army forces to allow them to make the best offensive plans aimed at annihilating the drug lord’s stronghold.

He had already arranged for the personnel to infiltrate in groups under various identities, with the first batch having blended in for ten days, ready to provide support from the inside.

And he was part of the last, and also the most dangerous batch, as he was responsible for smuggling various high-precision weapons in, evading the border defense forces’ searches.

Currently in this small town, on one hand, he was waiting for a large consignment of arms to be smuggled in secretly from home, and on the other hand, he knew that his godfather Su Feiman came from this town, and these past two days, took the opportunity to conduct some investigations.

He had gained some information.

The godfather was quite famous locally, but surprisingly not for infamy, but for being a savior-like figure, praised by everyone in the town.
