If they couldn’t think of a solution, Wei Lai and Jiang Ning would definitely give up and wait for an opportunity later. But now that they have a plan, how could they stop?

Jiang Ning and Wei Lai exchanged glances.

Jiang Ning looked at Jiang Chun helplessly and eventually compromised, “Alright. We won’t go.”

Wei Lai said, “Then let’s go home. Jiang Ning, you said last time that you wanted to go to my house to see the custom-made jewelry. Why don’t we do it today?”

Jiang Ning agreed excitedly.

The two of them, accompanied by Jiang Chun, entered the underground parking lot and got into the waiting cars driven by their assigned drivers. As they settled in, Jiang Chun caught a glimpse of Wei Lai’s eagerness as he pulled Jiang Ning out of the Wei family’s car. Maintaining her composure, she calmly averted her gaze.

Baisheng IVLall, a property owned by the Wei family, provided a convenient advantage for Wei Lai. With ease, she gained access to the surveillance room and successfully located Wen Nian’s position. Afterward, she swiftly jogged over to the layout, accompanied by Jiang Ning.

Wen Nian carefully selected a fountain pen, one that surpassed a thousand yuan in price. This purchase marked a significant milestone as it was perhaps the most expensive gift she had ever bought. Considering her current financial situation, she recognized that she could not be too frugal, especially now that she had a steady income.

As soon as Wen Nian left the shop, she was stopped by a young man.

The young man bashfully opened a black plastic bag and angled it towards Wen Nian. “Excuse me, young lady. Could you kindly assist me by delivering this to the women’s restroom? My girlfriend is waiting inside.”

Perplexed by the young man’s request, Wen Nian sought clarification. “Are there no other women present in the restroom who can help you?”

Understanding the urgency in the young man’s tone, Wen Nian grasped the situation. “1 see. It’s crowded in the guest bathroom due to the weekend, and an employee kindly allowed your girlfriend to use the employee’s bathroom. Unfortunately, the employee had to leave before you arrived. 1 understand your predicament. I’ll be glad to help.”

After exchanging a brief glance with the young man, Wen Nian hesitated for a moment before accepting the black plastic bag. “Alright, lead the way.”

Expressing his gratitude profusely, the young man led Wen Nian to a secluded corner where a sign indicated “Employee’s Bathroom.” Pointing towards the end of the row, he informed her, “She’s in the last bathroom.”

Acknowledging the instructions, Wen Nian nodded and proceeded to push open the door to the employee’s bathroom.

Curiosity piqued, Wen Nian cast a curious gaze around the small bathroom. Her eyes fell upon three toilets, with the first and last ones tightly shut. Adjacent to the window, there was a mop washing pool containing an empty basin.

Wen Nian located a spot to set her phone down, ensuring it was secure. Taking a moment to wash her hands, she then approached the bathroom near the window and gently knocked on the door. “Hello,” she called out, “your boyfriend asked me to bring you some sanitary pads.”

As the person inside the bathroom remained silent, a hand emerged from beneath the door, extending towards Wen Nian. She hesitated briefly, considering the unusual situation. Eventually, she decided to place the sanitary pad onto the outstretched hand.

Unexpectedly, the other party suddenly grabbed Wen Nian’s hand tightly and pressed her entire body against the door.

Wei Lai’s excited voice came from the toilet. “Jiang Ning! I’ve got her. Quick!”

Jiang Ning, with a mischievous smile, pushed open the door of the first toilet and emerged, surprising Wen Nian. “Hahaha, you didn’t expect it to be us, right?”

Jiang Ning, noticing Wen Nian’s surprise and immobility, placed his hands on his hips and boasted, “Hey, didn’t you learn boxing? Don’t you know how to throw someone over your shoulder? Come on, show me what you’ve got!”

Wen Nian maintained a steady gaze, her expression turning cold as she addressed Jiang Ning directly. “What is it that you want?”

Jiang Ning quickly turned on the tap and filled the basin with water. Wei Lai, who was holding Wen Nian tightly in the toilet, replied fiercely, “Don’t worry, we’re very gentle. We’re not as ruthless as a b*tch like you. We just want you to stay here with your clothes wet for the entire night.”

Spending the entire night in such inclement weather could prove fatal for her.

Wen Nian’s arm became trapped in the door crack, causing great discomfort. Initially, she crouched down, bending her body as Wei Lai exerted force to free her arm. She consciously relaxed her arm, allowing Wei Lai to pull her with greater ease.

As Wei Lai, who was positioned inside the door, sensed Wen Nian’s surrender, a smile of anticipation crossed his face. Aware of her disadvantage, Wen Nian’s position gave her the upper hand in this situation.

Wen Nian responded with a sarcastic smile. “Just a reminder, this is supposed to be an employee’s washroom, not some deserted space.”

Observing the shift in Wen Nian’s demeanor, Jiang Ning sensed her resignation and felt content. Turning around, she grabbed the basin filled with water and proudly smiled at Wen Nian. She taunted, “No need to worry. We’ve already made arrangements for you. This washroom won’t be in use until tomorrow morning! Even if you scream until your voice gives out or attempt to break down the door, it’ll be in vain!”

Wen Nian nodded, acknowledging the cleverness of Jiang Ning’s plan, and expressed her appreciation. “1 must admit, 1 didn’t anticipate your resourcefulness to such a degree. Well done.”

Jiang Ning felt a hint of unease upon hearing Wen Nian’s words. Before she could fully process it, Wen Nian interjected, “But before we part ways, there’s one last thing I’d like to say..”
