<div> Chapter 234: Chapter 234: Evading the Problem
 Today, Yuan Cheng finished work on time. Not long after their wedding, he went home every day with a sense of anticipation, endlessly longing for the warm days with his wife. However, as soon as he stepped out of the doorway, he saw Su Hui standing with her arms folded, leaning against the car door, smiling, seemingly having waited for him for quite a while.
 "Why are you here?" Yuan Cheng’s tone was not so much a question as it was an accusation, as if he wasn’t happy to see Su Hui.
 "Nothing much, I just wanted to have a chat with you, calm and objective, without emotions, about the breakup fee." Su Hui’s words left Yuan Cheng rather bemused. Knowing Su Hui as he did, he was aware that she would never ask for a breakup fee, this was all just an excuse.
 Then Su Hui said, "Come on, open the car door for me, it’s been a long time since I rode in your car."
 "Sorry, but the passenger seat is reserved for my wife." Yuan Cheng righteously refused. He roughly guessed why Su Hui was here and now wanted to keep his distance from her.
 "Then walk with me for a bit. I can calculate your breakup fee as we go." As soon as Su Hui started to speak, Yuan Cheng replied, "There is no need for all that trouble. Just send me the bill, and I will transfer the money to you."
 "So generous." Su Hui laughed, continuing, "Okay, let’s settle the breakup fee then. I should congratulate you on your recent marriage."
 "Thank you for your blessings. If there’s nothing else, I should go. You should call a taxi for yourself, I’m not going to drop you off." Having said that, Yuan Cheng opened the car door. However, just as he sat down, Su Hui shamelessly climbed into the passenger seat.
 Yuan Cheng stared at Su Hui in surprise, while Su Hui seemed to feel nothing was amiss, even exclaiming, "These leather seats, they still feel the same as before."
 "Su Hui, what exactly do you want?" Yuan Cheng was frustrated. He was being put in a difficult position which, to be honest, was quite in line with Su Hui’s style, although somewhat shameless.
 Su Hui pretended to be apologetic, "Don’t be angry, don’t be angry, what are you, a man, minding with me, a woman? Is it just because I sat in your car? I didn’t eat you or anything. You’re a grown man, what are you afraid of? I’m not afraid, are you a man at all?"

 </div> After being berated, Yuan Cheng was stunned. Then, he couldn’t help but say, "Su Hui, I have to admire your knack for turning things around."
 "Not at all, not at all, you’re flattering me," Su Hui seemed very modest, but Yuan Cheng was unhappy, "I’m a married man now, it’s inappropriate to have you sitting in this car with me. If someone were to see us, I wouldn’t be able to explain."
 Su Hui immediately nodded her head, "That’s why we have some serious issues to discuss. That way, when you go home, you can explain things to your wife."
 "You...you...fine, speak." In the end, Yuan Cheng gave in, as several of his colleagues had seen them together, and Su Hui even waved hello to them as if they were friends, when in fact, she didn’t know them at all.
 "Actually, things are like this, what exactly did Liu Yao see that night at the club? I need to know." Finally, Su Hui got serious, her question making Yuan Cheng frown. Responding gruffly, he said, "We’ve already said that Liu Yao didn’t see anything, why do you keep asking?"
 Su Hui snorted coldly, "If she didn’t see anything, why was the video footage from Liu Yao’s car taken away? Would they go to such lengths if she really didn’t see anything?"
 Yuan Cheng’s face darkened, his tone growing more intense, "I told you, she didn’t see anything. Even if you ask a hundred times, we will still give you the same answer."
 Seeing Yuan Cheng so adamant, Su Hui sighed, "Yuan Cheng, I’m not here to cause trouble. I’m thinking about Liu Yao. You know how people who were caught by us were silenced, right? Those guys won’t tolerate any risks, and Liu Yao is that risk."
 Yuan Cheng was expressionless, "Liu Yao didn’t see anything, so how could she be in danger? Su Hui, stop stirring things up, speaking any further is pointless."
 "Whether Liu Yao saw anything, you know better than I do." Su Hui seemed relentless and continued, "And don’t think Liu Yao’s status will protect her from being targeted. I’ve worked on a case where the son of a gang boss got into trouble and was under investigation, potentially risking the whole gang’s safety. So the gang boss decided to take out his own son, do you know why? First, it threatened not just one or two people’s interests, but the whole gang’s, you can imagine the pressure he was under. Secondly, the gang boss had several other children, losing one wasn’t unbearable."
 After hearing this, Yuan Cheng broke out in a cold sweat, but he forced himself to calm down, "I don’t understand what you’re trying to say?"
 Su Hui sighed, "Okay, I’ll be more explicit. We are keeping an eye on Liu Yao, and we will keep doing it, trying everything to use Liu Yao as our breakthrough. Don’t tell me to spare Liu Yao, it’s useless. Even if I let her go, someone else would replace me. We will gradually pry open this gap, and when Liu Yao becomes a threat to certain interest groups, her status and background won’t be enough to protect her. I hope you understand this point. Moreover, even if something happens to Liu Yao, what will you do for her? Will you take on an entire interest group?"
 Yuan Cheng felt a chill in his heart, his grip on the steering wheel tightened, his body tensed, and his face showed signs of anger, as if he was about to erupt and throw Su Hui out of the car at any moment.
 <div style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:10px;text-align:center">
 <div></div>
 </div> But Su Hui decided to wrap things up, "Alright, I’ve said all I need to say. I hope you can make the right decision soon, don’t regret it when something happens." After finishing, Su Hui obediently got out of the car. She watched as Yuan Cheng quickly started up the car and sped away, disappearing into the distance in a cloud of dust.
 "I hope the mental preparation I’ve done pays off." Su Hui stretches lazily, her eyes closed as if she is feeling something.
 "Murderous intent!" Su Hui suddenly becomes alert and surveys the bustling crowd around her, attempting to identify the source of this dread. She has no doubt about it — it’s that demon, and he’s nearby.
 A moment later, Yuan Cheng comes home to find his father and Liu Yao’s father in deep conversation in the living room, while Liu Yao is busy in the kitchen.
 Upon seeing Yuan Cheng, Yuan Zhenggang asks, "Why are you home so late? Did something hold you up?"
 In response, Yuan Cheng nods his head, "Yes, Su Hui came to see me."
 Hearing this, Yuan Zhenggang and Liu Zhendong don’t seem particularly surprised. They had already heard about her visit, indicating that someone had seen Su Hui and had reported to Liu Zhendong, prompting his visit.
 Despite seeming busy in the kitchen, Liu Yao’s mind is no longer focused on her cooking.
 After thinking for a moment, Yuan Zhenggang asks, "Why did she come to see you? Because of Liu Yao?"
 Yuan Cheng nods his head, "Yes, Su Hui is not giving up. She still wants to pry something out of Liu Yao. Even though I’ve said multiple times that Liu Yao knows nothing, Su Hui seems determined and doesn’t seem willing to give up easily."
 Hearing this, Liu Zhendong becomes agitated, "Su Hui is just an administrative staffer, acting so recklessly. We should sack her."
 Yuan Cheng shakes his head, "That won’t work. Su Hui is acting on higher orders to investigate. Regardless of her rank or whether she’s an administrative or operational staff, she will pursue it."
 "Then let’s make her disappear completely." Liu Zhendong, concerned for his daughter, just wishes for her safety.
 Disagreeing, Yuan Cheng shakes his head, "Whether it’s Su Hui or someone else, as long as the higher-ups are investigating, they can’t hide. We have to be mindful of our words and actions."
 <div style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:10px;text-align:center">
 <div></div>
 </div> Hearing this, Liu Zhendong becomes frustrated, "Isn’t there a better way?"
 Yuan Cheng immediately proposes, "There’s an option: flee abroad."
 "That indeed is a viable option." Yuan Zhenggang concurs, but Liu Zhendong is unconvinced, "If something happens overseas, there’s not much we can do from here."
 Yuan Cheng expresses his concern, "If we continue to stay here, more people from above will come to investigate, always watching Liu Yao. If the boss wants to protect his whole team and decides to silence people, can we really guarantee Liu Yao’s safety?"
 These words directly strike at the hearts of Yuan Zhenggang and Liu Zhendong. Their faces turn gloomy, realizing that Yuan Cheng is right. They can’t fight against the entire organization, despite their high-ranking positions.
 In the end, Yuan Zhenggang agrees, "Let’s send Liu Yao abroad to hide. We should inform the boss ahead of time to avoid any suspicions. It’ll be hard on you two, having to live in separate countries right after getting married."
 "It’s nothing as long as Liu Yao is safe. At this cost, it’s not that big a deal," says Yuan Cheng, after some thought. He proposes another idea, "Once I’m done here, I’d like my younger brother to take over my responsibilities. I’d like to join Liu Yao abroad."
 "Alright, I’ll discuss it with the boss. Since Liu Yao will be overseas, she won’t pose a threat to the organization. I believe the boss will understand," says Liu Zhendong, patting Yuan Cheng on the shoulder. "Now that we’re here, everything’s up to you."
 Yuan Cheng feels the weight of Liu Zhendong’s words and the greater responsibility he now carries. But he confidently assures, "Don’t worry, I will protect Liu Yao."
 At that moment, Liu Yao comes out of the kitchen with a bowl of soup, forcing a smile on her face, "Come, taste the soup I made. I learned this in a cooking class."
 "Ha-ha, my sweet daughter who scarcely touched kitchen duties has learned to be domesticated after marriage." Liu Zhendong tries to lighten the tense atmosphere.
 Indignant, Liu Yao retorts, "What kind of way is that to talk about your daughter? I’m naturally a gentle and virtuous woman, I don’t need to learn."This chapt𝒆r is updated by free(w)ebnovel(.)com</div>
