Chen An was about to lead Ling Xiaosu away from the heaven defying official and walk to the side to discuss the plot. However, the heaven defying official suddenly stood up and grabbed Ling Xiaosu's wrist.

Chen An frowned as he looked at the heaven defying official, forcing out a word from between his teeth. "The boss."

Seeing the irritation in Chen An's eyes, the heaven defying official grabbed onto Ling Xiaosu's wrist and said, "As the investor in this online drama, I think I have to participate, don't you?"

He was trying to find an excuse for Ling Xiaosu to not leave with Chen An alone, but the last sentence he said was directed at Ling Xiaosu.

Ling Xiaosu looked at the two of them with a puzzled expression. Why did she feel that their auras were exactly the same as the confrontation between Li Ning and Chen Zixuan?

Chen An stubbornly stared at Qin Wentian as he coldly laughed.

Intuition told her that if the two of them did not stop them later, they might start fighting. Ling Xiaosu quickly interjected and said, "Chen An, let's discuss the plot first. I have some matters to attend to, so I'll go discuss other matters first. I'll come over later to find you."

After saying that, without waiting for Chen An to react, Ling Xiaosu pulled the heaven defying official away.

Ling Xiaosu let out a sigh and turned around to look at him. He then asked curiously, "Why do I feel that you have some sort of enmity towards Chen An?"

Ling Xiaosu couldn't understand why Chen An, such a young child, would have such unfathomable hostility towards him.

The heaven defying official didn't conceal the reason behind his hostility towards Chen An. He sneered and said, "That brat likes you."

Ling Xiaosu: "…" What was she supposed to tell him? Chen An didn't really like her, he just had a good impression of her that was similar to that of his elder sister.

Ling Xiaosu pursed her lips and replied with a headache, "Chen An doesn't like me. You've misunderstood me. Also, don't show that kind of hostility towards Chen An in the future." She was afraid that Chen An would misunderstand something and start fighting with the heaven defying official.

The heaven defying official nodded and then stopped talking.

Ling Xiaosu: "…" She had the urge to bring the heaven defying official here.

Hmm, hmm, what's the meaning of this!

Ling Xiaosu was deeply troubled.

Looking at Ling Xiaosu's frowning and helpless expression, the heaven defying official suddenly stretched out his hand and ruffled Ling Xiao's soft hair.

Ling Xiaosu accepted this heaven defying official who was stroking his hair like a dog, as warmth filled his heart.

Thinking about it, it seemed like it had been a long time since she had such a warm and peaceful time with the heaven defying official. There seemed to be so many things happening between her and the heaven defying official that Ling Xiaosu still had not figured it out.

Was it really just an unmarried couple who were in each other's interests? Why doesn't she feel like it?

Ling Xiaosu suddenly felt that she could no longer understand Configurehead. She could not understand it at all, nor could she understand the relationship between the two.

The quiet afternoon slowly passed between the two of them. Ling Xiaosu did not speak a word to interrupt the current atmosphere, and the heaven defying official chose to remain silent after maintaining his position.

It was close to Saturday. The students nearby had all left school, and the teahouse had an exceptionally large number of guests in the afternoon. For a moment, Ling An was unable to process what he had just heard.

Ling An walked into the kitchen and said to Zeng Limei, who was busy, "There's a customer at table 15 who needs a cup of black tea. Quickly finish the cooking and bring it out."

Ceng Limei nodded silently and started to make black tea.

Now the shop activities, order a cup of black tea, a cup of red bean coix water.

When Zeng Limei had finished making a cup of steaming black tea, she glanced at a bag of red beans in the corner. The bottom left corner of the red beans had been bitten by a rat she had placed in it a few days before.

Zeng Limei sneered, reached into the bag of red beans, pulled out a dead mouse, put the mouse into the boiled red bean water, wiped her hands, and put the black tea and the red bean water on the same plate and pushed it aside.

Very soon, Ling An entered. Seeing that Zeng Limei had already brewed the black tea and red bean curd rice water, she unexpectedly took out the plate and placed it on the guest's table at table 15.

The guest at the 15th table was a female student. Beside her was her classmate, the one sitting there was a female student and drinking black tea.

Zeng Limei was hiding in the kitchen, looking out of a small window in the kitchen. Her eyes were filled with urgency.

Suddenly, the phone in her pocket rang, scaring Zeng Li. When Zeng Limei saw that the caller was Chu Xiaoran, she answered with a bad tone, "Hello."

"Has the mission been completed?" Chu Xiaoran was sitting in a black car parked outside the teahouse. She coldly looked into the teahouse with her red lips curled up as she asked Zeng Limei who was in a good mood.

Zeng Limei took a deep breath and replied, "It's going to be completed soon. After it's done, you have to fulfill what you promised me. Give me a plane ticket abroad, and help me heal my face."

Chu Xiaoran replied, "Rest assured, I will give you these after the task is completed. However, if the task is not completed yet, I will not give you these things. Do you understand?"

"Of course I understand." Ceng Limei gritted her teeth and said coldly, "Also, don't forget to rescue my father from prison."

Chu Xiaoran frowned. She tightened her grip on her phone and said unhappily, "Don't worry. As long as I complete the mission, I will fulfill everything I promised you."

With that, Zeng Limei finally hung up the phone with a sigh of relief.

Chu Xiaoran put down her cell phone, her sunglasses-wearing face obscured the expression in her eyes. "Has Zeng Liishan been settled?"

Zeng Liishan was also Zeng Li's father, so Chu Xiaoran really didn't have a good impression of this bold old man.

The bodyguard in the driver's seat replied respectfully, "It has been settled. Subordinate has confirmed that Zeng Li Shan has been completely cleared from the prison and the information has been concealed."

"That's good."

The female student in the cafeteria used a spoon to dig in a mouthful of red beans. Just as she was about to put it in her mouth, a classmate beside her exclaimed, "There's a mouse!"

The female student paused, not understanding the meaning behind the words of the other student. She only saw the student point at her own spoon and say, "There's a mouse inside your red bean!"

With that roar, everyone in the restaurant looked over, including Ling An, who had heard the exclamation from the kitchen.

The female student looked at her spoon. There was indeed a mouse, a very small mouse. It was already completely dead.

The female student put down her spoon in fright and suddenly started to vomit while supporting her classmates. Seeing this, the people in the dining hall frantically knocked over the beans in front of them and started to vomit in front of Ling An An.
