Lin Zhi was flabbergasted and in disbelief.

“Wan’er, what happened?”

“Mom, I explained that I had no reason to drug him, but Fu Yuan didn’t believe me. I didn’t know what to do. If I had known that this would happen, I wouldn’t have done anything…”

“You can’t think like that. Oh, Wan’er, have you brought back the pinhole camera? Perhaps you captured some images we could use.”

“No. I couldn’t take it in front of Brother Yuan, but I noticed that the light was gone. It’s gone…” Jian Wan’s voice trembled.

“Don’t panic. We have to think of a way now.”

Lin Zhi consoled her daughter. Her mind was in a whirl as she said gravely, “The waiter I arranged to deliver the note was a temporary worker. Now that he’s gone, they won’t be able to find any evidence.”

“Tell Fu Yuan later that you weren’t watching the waiter as he poured the glass of water. Lu Xue was alone with the glass of water for a while. If the camera is gone, so be it. No matter who found it, just push the blame to Lu Xue. Jian Yan slapped her in front of everyone. It’s normal for her to want to take revenge. When I bumped into Jian Yan just now, her expression was normal. She definitely didn’t drink that glass of wine. She probably realized that something was wrong and was suspicious.

“Thankfully, I still have a few pills in my bag. I’ll put them in a bottle. You can stuff them into Lu Xue’s bag later and let someone find them. It’s best if Jian Yan sees it too. If she believes it and tells Fu Yuan, you’ll be cleared of all suspicion.”

Lin Zhi’s arrangement instantly appeased Jian Wan and she immediately nodded in agreement.

By this time, Jian Yan had already signed the contract with Secretary Li.

The contract stated that she would be chosen as the partner as long as she participated in the “Chinese Embroidery Arts Competition” and ranked in the top three.

At the same time, the Fu Corporation would give her the first floor of their office as a deposit. They would be responsible for the rent for three years. She could choose to transfer the staff in from the Fu Corporation or from France. In short, she had the final say.

After signing the contract, Li Zhou commented, “I didn’t expect you to be so straightforward.”

“Very straightforward? Haha, it’s nothing. The conditions you guys offered are generous enough. Although the competition will take three months and the penalty fee is a little high, it’s completely worth it.” Jian Yan replied happily.

However, she had her doubts. She had left Fu Yuan in such a sorry state. Fu Yuan was probably trying to save himself or was being rescued by someone now. There was no way he’d have the time to agree to this contract.

“Secretary Li, may I ask whose secretary you are? Fu Yuan doesn’t have the time to agree to this contract, right?”

Li Zhou hugged the contract tightly and smiled in embarrassment. “Ms. Jade, you don’t have to think too much about it. It’s fine as long as you believe in our sincerity. As for whose secretary I am… Ahem, that’s not important.”

He stood up and left with the contract.

As Jian Yan looked at Li Zhou walking off into the distance, she had her answer in her heart.

‘Tsk, he’s indeed Fu Li’s secretary.’

But she did not regret signing the contract because she could afford the penalty.

After selling her shares, she received her first huge amount of start-up capital. She has built up her business over the years. Although she had suffered a few losses, her wealth had continued increasing.

The penalty fee was indeed expensive, but it was just a drop in the ocean to her.

If Fu Li dared to play any tricks, she would break the contract and leave.

Jian Yan put down her pen and walked out of the room.

Outside, the banquet was about to end.

Most people did not know that the Fu Corporation had signed a contract with Jian Yan.

In their eyes, this banquet was just an opportunity to let loose and have some fun. The Fu Corporation’s contract definitely belonged to the Jian family, and nothing was going to change that.

Fu Li received the contract photo taken by Li Zhou and transferred the bonus to him in satisfaction.

At the same time, a reliable private investigator that had been sent to Director Zhang Yue’s residence in Luo City relayed good news.

“I found it. It’s at the villa on Chu Xi Avenue. The three children are playing in the garden. Here are some photos.”

Several photos appeared on Fu Li’s computer.

In the garden of the villa.

Under the golden sunlight, a girl sat on a swing, swinging slowly while two boys played football beside her.

As he had seen that day, the girl looked like Jian Yan, and the boy looked like him.

In one of the photos, the two boys had their eyes fixed on the camera. They seemed to have discovered the person who had taken the photo, but they did not avoid it. Instead, they smiled faintly.

But in the next picture, their eyes shifted again, focused on playing football.

Fu Li frowned. He wasn’t sure if his earlier thought was an illusion or if the children had indeed discovered it.

But soon, he smiled.

Whether they had discovered it or not, it was worth being happy about..
