"Yes. With An Ke suddenly back at this moment, does it mean my previous plan..." Jiang Man asked tentatively. She had always acted according to the instructions of the man in black before.
Even though she knew that He Ting had deliberately bought those news stories, she still pretended they were real. She went on stage to confront those women and deliberately let the media know about it. All these were part of the man in black's plan.
Now that An Ke had suddenly returned, everything was disrupted. Jiang Man didn't know whether she should continue or not because it seemed unnecessary.
Once An Ke was back, her plan to get close to He Ting would be ruined again.
"Since An Ke has come back, don't do anything redundant. Just sit back and watch the show. But you need to keep a close eye on He Ting and pass on the information in time."
An Ke's return was within the man in black's plan. Jiang Man was now a useless piece on the chessboard. No matter where she was placed, her role was limited. The man in black already had the vague idea of abandoning her.
"But I can't get close to He Ting at all. You know, because of my previous failure, He Ting has long stopped trusting me." At this point, Jiang Man gritted her teeth.
She had originally planned to set up An Ke, but unexpectedly, she had lost her innocence and been watched by so many people. It was all An Ke's fault.
"Then what do you want to do? Just go ahead as you like. But there may not be much I can do to help you." The man in black was silent for a while. As long as it could cause trouble for He Ting, he didn't really care how it was done.
"As long as you agree, that's fine. I won't use the organization's connections." Jiang Man smiled. Finally, she heard some good news.
Actually, not all the people that He Shen had recruited had gone to jail. Especially after He Shen was released a few days later, he immediately contacted Jiang Man.
Obviously, He Shen had investigated Jiang Man. And Jiang Man also learned about He Shen's identity and intentions from her father. So when He Shen found her, she readily agreed.
Originally, Jiang Man had planned to use He Shen to gain credit in front of He Ting. Now it seemed that the only option left was to cause trouble for He Ting.
"Then you can do as you please. Make He Ting in a mess. As for An Ke, I have my own plan... You don't need to interfere. Do you understand?" What the man in black meant was that he didn't want Jiang Man to take action against An Ke.
Although Jiang Man was full of complaints, she didn't dare to say a single word of resistance in front of the man in black. She could only keep nodding.
After the man in black left, Jiang Man found that her back was already soaked. One could imagine how much pressure the man in black had put on her.
"How ridiculous. Even if you don't let me deal with An Ke, I won't give up so easily." Jiang Man clenched her fists tightly. She couldn't deal with An Ke openly, but there were plenty of people willing to be her tools.
"Do you think how my brother and An Ke are getting along now? Have they rekindled their old love and become inseparable, so much so that they don't go to work for three days?" Yuan Ping kept fantasizing.
Li Li inexplicably felt that Yuan Ping was a bit vulgar at this moment. According to his understanding of He Ting and An Ke, they should be having a rational conversation now.
No, it should be He Ting secretly infatuated while An Ke remained indifferent.
"What do you think, Li Li?" Yuan Ping didn't expect his unreliable plan to succeed. Now that An Ke was back, He Ting was no longer lonely.
He could finally be liberated and didn't have to face He Ting's coldness every day. Just thinking about it made him happy.
Yuan Ping thought that He Ting might even praise him since it was his idea. Thinking of this, Yuan Ping raised his head proudly.
"I don't think things will be that simple. You're being too optimistic." According to Li Li's observation, although their boss He Ting was a reserved and scheming person, An Ke didn't buy his tricks.
So He Ting was doomed to be unlucky, and Yuan Ping probably wouldn't fare much better. Thinking of this, Li Li gave him a sympathetic look.
"Hey, what's that look in your eyes?" Yuan Ping felt goose - bumps all over his body under Li Li's gaze.
Li Li always saw things more clearly than him. Could it be that he had guessed right this time? Was he doomed? No, he had to save himself.
"Li Li, I'll go and get busy first. If my brother comes later, just say I'm not here..." Yuan Ping quickly retreated. When He Ting got angry, it would surely affect those around him.
He didn't want to be the innocent victim!
Li Li didn't really care. He was usually a man of few words, and whatever He Ting said or did didn't affect him much.
"I'll definitely tell him the truth."
Yuan Ping ran so fast that he didn't hear Li Li's words or notice Li Li's gradually darkening look.
The silly Yuan Ping didn't realize that even if He Ting was angry, he wouldn't choose to lose his temper at such a happy moment when An Ke was back.
It was a pity that Yuan Ping was so scared that his IQ was reduced to zero!
"Where's Yuan Ping?"
Sure enough, as soon as He Ting came, his first question was this.
Li Li felt a chill in his heart and said with a somewhat solemn tone, "He's in that room!"
When Yuan Ping heard He Ting's footsteps, he was so scared that his courage almost left him. He didn't dare to move at all and stiffly curled up on the floor.
Probably Yuan Ping never dreamed that Li Li would so easily betray him. Otherwise, he would never have told Li Li his hiding place.
Sure enough, he trusted Li Li too much. Li Li usually seemed so loyal, but unexpectedly, he turned out to be a bad guy.
"Come on, stop fooling around. Come out quickly. I have something important to tell you two..." Because of his father's matter, He Ting's joy at seeing An Ke had diminished a lot.
Coupled with Yuan Ping's actions, He Ting felt that he could hardly hold back his temper. He really wanted to let Yuan Ping just live on the floor, which would save the cost of a bed.
Yuan Ping quickly crawled out. He Ting's tone was serious, not like he was joking.
"What happened, brother? Is it about An Ke?"
At this moment, the only thing that could make He Ting serious was An Ke.
But He Ting shook his head. "It's not about her. It's my father..."
He Ting told them what An Ke had said and about the jade pendant. "Now, you need to check for me what's going on with this Jiang Man and the jade pendant around her neck?"
He Ting didn't think his father would give the jade pendant to Jiang Man.
He still clearly remembered his father's attitude towards Jiang Man. His father hated Jiang Man for no apparent reason.
"Brother, does it mean that it might be Jiang Man who killed uncle?" Since Yuan Ping called He Ting brother, He Ting's father was also his father. It was only natural to avenge his father and find the murderer.
Now that they knew it was related to Jiang Man, things would be easier.
