"I think we should just pounce on him." Ji Botang put down the coffee cup in his hand. "To deal with an old and stuffy guy like Second Uncle, we have to take the initiative and let him know how to do it."
Mingli smoothed her hair and replied calmly, "They pounced on me, tied my hands behind my back and pinned me to the bed. My hand was dislocated and I had to recuperate for half a month."
"What about getting him drunk?" Gu Fu received incredulous looks from Guan Yu, Ji Baitang, and Wen Liuhe, as if they couldn't believe that this suggestion came from her, the calmest and most rational person.
Gu Fu shrugged, "That's how I got together with Gu Yun."
"You got him drunk, and then did this and that?" Ji Baitang's eyes lit up, not hiding his gossipy thoughts at all.
"In fact, I got myself drunk and then knocked him down," Gu Fu answered frankly.
Guan Yu gave a thumbs up, a heroine.
No wonder Gu Yun couldn’t handle it.
Mingli smiled and said, "He has used it before. He can drink a thousand cups without getting drunk."
"Sister Mingli, you are going to launch a new round of offensive, why are you not happy?" Wen Liuhe sensitively noticed the melancholy between Mingli's brows.
Mingli sighed softly, "I've been following him for several years, chasing him while carrying out missions with the organization. Even the most determined heart will get tired."
"So you're giving up?"
"Can I compete with a dead person?" Mingli smiled, full of self-mockery.
Ji Baitang wanted to say more words of persuasion but was silenced by her smile. He didn't know what to say for a moment and swallowed them back with complicated expressions.
She heard from her family that Ji Tianlei broke up with his family for a woman and never returned home since he was young.
Ji Baitang didn't believe that the vicious old man and woman who broke up a couple in the story were his kind grandparents, so he went to Ji Jinzhou to verify it, only to find out that the woman... was his fourth uncle's teacher.
Forbidden love is despised by the world. The grandfather didn't want his outstanding son to be criticized, so he made up his mind and said that he would sever the relationship. Who knew that he would be gone for many years and never returned home even after the woman died.
Wen Liuhe held his chin in his hand in annoyance, "That's right, how can a living person possibly win against a dead person?"
"I don't think so." Gu Fu leaned back in her chair and took a sip of coffee calmly. "The dead are always dead. Although memories will remain, they will disappear with time. But the living will always be there."
"I think so too." Guan Yu propped up her chin. "He's been dead for so many years. The dead can't always be with my second uncle. As a living person, you still have a lot of advantages. You may not be able to get his heart completely, but at least you have his body."
"That makes sense." Mingli's eyes lit up in an instant, and the light in her eyes rekindled.
"It's lunch break time, so let's go first." Guan Yu patted Mingli's shoulder and said, "Sister Mingli, I wish you success."
She suddenly received a message from Mingli today, saying that she was preparing to launch the 216th offensive against Ji Tianlei and wanted to consult her on a few questions. She asked if she had time.
Guan Yu decisively left Ji Jinzhou in the office. Regardless of Gu Yun's pitiful look as she watched him alone in his empty room, she took Gu Fu away as well and also called Wen Liuhe and Ji Baitang, believing that there was strength in numbers.
"Sister Mingli, Little Seal and I support you, come on." Ji Baitang encouraged her with full energy.
Mingli smiled and said, "I know. You should work harder too."
"I can. Even if it's a piece of wood, I can fan the flames and make it burn." Ji Baitang shook his ponytail and walked away proudly.
After sending off the useless think tank, Mingli breathed a sigh of relief, drank her coffee in one gulp, and sent a message to the phone number she could recite by heart:
[Tonight at 7 o'clock, at the restaurant on the top floor of Yunluo Building, this is the last time we meet. I won't bother you anymore.]
After waiting for a while, a brief message came from the other side: [OK.]
Mingli curled her lips, but her mood was still heavy. She picked up her bag, paid, stood up, and walked towards her sports car.
When she was about to arrive at the agreed location, she received a text message.
There is no sender, no signature, no specific number, and the content is just a string of garbled characters.
Mingli turned off her phone with a serious expression, drove her bright red sports car to the airport.
Nine o'clock in the evening, on the top floor of Yunluo Building.
The city night view in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows is bright, the lights are on, and the traffic is bustling. This is a city that countless elites want to join.
