Huang Youcai also had a gloomy face. The plan failed; it failed entirely.

Previously, when he saw that the Mount Jing police did not start to arrest Yang Ming, Huang Youcai could comfort himself that the police needed evidence to carry out the case. It was necessary to study the videotape carefully before they could arrest people.

They also needed to arrange properly before catching people to avoid any accidents, so it was reasonable that they didn’t make a move. However, now it seemed that it wasn’t that the Mount Jing police didn’t want to make a move, but they didn’t consider Yang Ming as a suspect at all.

In fact, they also found the person who really killed Sui Yuejin which was the behind-the-scenes boss. Therefore, the plan failed just like that.

Huang Youcai didn’t have much fear at this time. After all, the reason for the failure of this plan wasn’t due to him. It was due to the negligence of the behind-the-scenes boss. After he entered the Sui’s Group Building, he was captured by the surveillance cameras.

It couldn’t be said that his plan wasn’t working; there was just a problem in the execution.

The behind-the-scenes boss wasn’t an unreasonable person. He looked at the arrest warrant with a sullen look. He couldn’t understand where he had made a mistake. The hard disk that should have been in his hand actually appeared in the police’s hands.

Didn’t I remove the hard drive in the surveillance camera system? The behind-the-scenes boss was pretty sure about this… Wait, no! The behind-the-scenes boss was shocked; he remembered one thing.

That was when he was stealing a rare treasure in a museum abroad, he accidentally discovered that the monitoring room of the museum had not only a surveillance camera system but also a data backup machine!

The data of the surveillance camera is synchronized with the data backup machine! Does Sui’s Group have this kind of thing? The behind-the-scenes boss sighed in annoyance.

After staying in China for the past few years, he had let his guard down. He did not expect Sui’s Group to have a data backup machine! At present, only this could explain why the police had the surveillance video content.

” Hmph !” The behind-the-scenes boss slapped the table in anger. He tore the arrest warrant into pieces and tossed them into the air; the pieces were scattered around the room.

Huang Youcai looked at the behind-the-scenes boss’ angry look and remained silent, knowing that he was furious at the moment. However, he wouldn’t vent his anger on Huang Youcai as long as Huang Youcai didn’t provoke him.

Sure enough, after the behind-the-scenes boss vented out his anger, his face became calm. He waved to Huang Youcai. “You should go rest first. I need to be alone for a while.”

“Okay, boss.” Huang Youcai nodded and replied.

“Right, don’t focus on Yang Ming recently; let’s stop for a while first.” The behind-the-scenes boss hesitated for a while, and he stopped Huang Youcai. “The police are on high alert recently. Let’s wait for the arrest warrant to subside first.”

“I know.” Huang Youcai still needed to rely on the behind-the-scenes boss’ power to take revenge, so he naturally didn’t want anything bad happening to the behind-the-scenes boss. This matter wasn’t urgent anyway. He had already waited for so long, so then he would let Yang Ming be smug for a while.

Huang Youcai firmly believed in the bottom of his heart that it was only a matter of time before he would destroy Yang Ming.

When Huang Youcai went out, the behind-the-scenes boss took a few deep breaths to calm down his emotions. He was not angry because his appearance was exposed. This didn’t matter because the behind-the-scenes boss wasn’t afraid of others knowing what he looked like.

However, he was very upset! Extremely upset! It was because he had failed again and again. He didn’t know whether Yang Ming was the factor of this failure, but it was due to his negligence that he let others get him!

Now that even the arrest warrant is issued, I can’t even go out. Although… The behind-the-scenes boss punched the table heavily.

Seeing the chat screen with Dr. Benjamin flashing on the computer screen, the behind-the-scenes boss clicked on it.

“Falcon, what’s wrong with you? Why aren’t you talking?” This was sent by Dr. Benjamin in English.

It turned out that the behind-the-scenes boss’ codename was Falcon in their organization. Moreover, he wasn’t the ultimate behind-the-scenes boss. There were others behind him.

“Doctor, my face is exposed now; the police have issued an arrest warrant.” Falcon typed on the computer.

“This is nothing. I will give you another mask.” Dr. Benjamin said indifferently.

“Sorry for the trouble, Doctor.” Falcon sighed. It seemed that Dr. Benjamin did not blame him on this matter, but he readily agreed to give Falcon another mask.

“If you can find the old man, Sun Sikong, who can make a mask that can change constantly, you won’t have to work so hard.” Dr. Benjamin sighed.

“I will try my best. Rest assured, Doctor.” Falcon quickly promised.

“I’m not in a hurry. You should set aside your personal grudges for now. Don’t put the cart before the horse.” Dr. Benjamin suddenly warned Falcon instead.

Falcon saw the text sent by the behind-the-scenes boss, and he was stunned in his heart. It seems that my every move here wasn’t hidden from Dr. Benjamin! Does the Doctor have someone here? It shouldn’t be, right?

Initially, Falcon thought that since Dr. Benjamin was far away, he must not know what Falcon did in China, but that wasn’t the case.

Dr. Benjamin’s messages just now were very obvious. Although he didn’t mention the specific details, Falcon could understand it. He was secretly shocked.

“Yes, I got it.” The Falcon said quickly.

“I have something to do here. Mr. Rain is coming. I have something to discuss with him.” After Dr. Benjamin finished this sentence, he went offline.

Falcon wasn’t very clear what Mr. Rain did; he only knew that Mr. Rain was an important figure in the organization, but Falcon didn’t know the specific details because Falcon directly reported to Dr. Benjamin.

Falcon couldn’t determine whether Mr. Rain or Dr. Benjamin had a higher position. These were all the things he couldn’t understand. That organization was too big. No one knew what they were doing, but it was a fearful existence.

After making up his mind, Dr. Benjamin didn’t express his opinion, but he went offline hurriedly. Therefore, Falcon was a little nervous; he decided to not bother about Yang Ming for a while.

……

Needless to say, Yang Ming didn’t know that there was someone behind the behind-the-scenes boss; he was just a pawn. Of course, Yang Ming didn’t know that the behind-the-scenes boss actually had a mask; he could still change his face to appear in front of Yang Ming.

On the way back, Yang Ming was not so anxious. He had already been absent from the first class in the afternoon. It was fine if he could catch up with the evening class at six o’clock.

When Yang Ming returned to Song Jiang Industry University, it was already 4:30 p.m. Yang Ming did not have dinner yet, so he called Chen Mengyan and asked if she was with Lin Zhiyun.

“I don’t have a class tonight, so I went home.” After a while, Chen Mengyan picked up the phone. “If you want dinner, you can look for Sister Lin. She still has class at night.”

“Zhiyun still has class?” Yang Ming didn’t expect Chen Mengyan to go home first, so he could only say, “Well, then I will ask Zhiyun.”

Chen Mengyan had gone home, so it was inconvenient to ask her to come out again. Thinking of this, Yang Ming was going to call Lin Zhiyun to see where she was.

Lin Zhiyun naturally knew that Chen Mengyan had no classes at night, so she didn’t want Chen Mengyan to accompany her at school. Although they were in the same department, their majors were different, Chen Mengyan was basically wasting time accompanying Lin Zhiyun to attend class.

So Lin Zhiyun asked Chen Mengyan to go back first, and she didn’t have to wait for her to eat. Lin Zhiyun was ready to eat by herself after class, and she still had a Western economics class at six o’clock.

The School of Economics and Management courses were still relatively rushed; the daily classes were almost full. When Lin Zhiyun walked out of the classroom, she was stopped. When she looked up, she found that the person was Xu Qianxing, the Student Union president.

“President Xu, is there anything the matter?” Lin Zhiyun asked with some doubts.

“Nothing much. I am also attending classes on this level. I just happened to see someone who looked like you.” Xu Qianxing smiled and said, “I didn’t expect it to be you.”

” Hehe …” Lin Zhiyun smiled. She was not very good at communicating with unfamiliar people, and she didn’t know how to reject others, so she stood here without knowing what to say.

How could Xu Qianxing don’t know Lin Zhiyun’s character? He had already understood Lin Zhiyun. He wasn’t here for class, but he inquired about the location of Lin Zhiyun’s class, and he had been waiting for her here.

However, he was afraid to scare off the beauty, so he pretended to meet her coincidentally and came to greet Lin Zhiyun. Lin Zhiyun was a simple person, so she naturally wouldn’t think so much.

When Xu Qianxing saw Lin Zhiyun being awkward, he would naturally lead Lin Zhiyun to talk about other topics, but he couldn’t do it too deliberately. “Classmate Lin, how is your art festival program? Do you have any ideas?”

Sure enough, Lin Zhiyun did not doubt about Xu Qianxing’s true intention. “I haven’t thought about what to perform, and I have no idea in my mind.”

Lin Zhiyun was telling the truth. She had discussed it with Yang Ming for a long time, but she didn’t know what she was good at. She always had a delicate temper, and she didn’t like to perform anything in public. She would get anxious.

“So, that’s the case. It’s fine. Let’s talk while walking.” Xu Qianxing smiled and said. “Let’s go downstairs together. I’ll give you an idea along the way.”

Lin Zhiyun hesitated, then she nodded and agreed. Although she felt that it was not very good to walk with an unfamiliar boy, she couldn’t reject him since he was looking for her for a serious matter, and it was about work. Therefore, she walked downstairs together with Xu Qianxing, but she still maintained a certain distance between them.

“Classmate Lin,” Xu Qianxing didn’t call Lin Zhiyun as “Zhiyun” like an annoying guy. He just called her Classmate Lin, so it wouldn’t cause any dislike from Lin Zhiyun. It would only make her feel that he was looking for her only for work.

In Xu Qianxing’s opinion, he needed to be patient to pursue a girl like Lin Zhiyun. He couldn’t be impatient. If he were impatient, he would scare her away.

This Xu Qianxing was really good at observing, and he was a smart guy. He immediately knew Lin Zhiyun’s character thoroughly. Yang Ming also used this trick when he pursued Lin Zhiyun.

He stepped into her life bit by bit. He would only reveal it in the end; it let Lin Zhiyun feel as though it were very natural, and it wasn’t too awkward.

“Classmate Lin, the art festival is actually a literary performance of song and dance, acrobatics, martial arts, cross talk, essays, etc. It can also be said to be a small evening party.” Xu Qianxing said, “Our school evening party is actually organized by students. Your performance doesn’t need to be so formal. It is fine as long as everyone participates and everyone can be satisfied. Therefore, what you want to perform isn’t important. You can either sing, dance, play a song, and even perform a little magic or the like, as long as you are good at it.”

“But, I’m not good at anything…” Lin Zhiyun regretted agreeing with Xu Qianxing to participate in the art performance after she listened to him. She really wasn’t good at anything after she thought about it.

“If you can’t do it, you can find a partner to perform with you on stage.” Xu Qianxing smiled and said, “Classmate Lin, in fact, everyone only looks at your reputation on the school forum BBS. No matter what you perform, you will be popular.”

“Really…” Lin Zhiyun didn’t pay much attention to those things. “You said I can perform with a partner?”

“Yeah, the programs on the art festival are not all performed alone,” Xu Qianxing said. “Aren’t choir, dance group, and the others performed by multiple people?”

“Then, I will go back and think about it again.” Since Lin Zhiyun had already promised Xu Qianxing before, she couldn’t reject him at the moment.

“Right, what are you going to do now?” Xu Qianxing asked Lin Zhiyun inadvertently.

” Ah ? I am going to the cafeteria to have something to eat. I still have a class at six o’clock later,” said Lin Zhiyun.

“It just so happened that I have to go to the cafeteria, too. Let’s go together.” Xu Qianxing said with a smile. He felt that today was going really smoothly. He initially wanted to invite Lin Zhiyun to eat, but he couldn’t ask for himself. However, the problem was solved now. Since Lin Zhiyun said that she wanted to go to the cafeteria to eat, he could reasonably ask to buy her a meal when they got there.

“… Okay…” Lin Zhiyun didn’t want to go with him. She was afraid of causing misunderstandings with her classmates, but she didn’t know how to refuse. After all, he was making a reasonable request. If she rejected him resolutely, it wasn’t very polite.

When Xu Qianxing saw Lin Zhiyun agree, he was delighted. He thought that if people were on a lucky trend, then everything would be smooth. When he saw Yang Ming at noon today, he was afraid that Yang Ming would not agree to participate in the art festival, but he didn’t expect Yang Ming to really agree to participate.

Xu Qianxing also intended to have Chen Mengyan, the vice president of the Student Affairs Department of the Department of Economics, lobby Yang Ming, but he did not expect to succeed without using this connection. Xu Qianxing naturally knew Chen Mengyan was Yang Ming’s girlfriend.

Zou Ruoming, the student management department president of the Department of Economics and Management, was fond of her, but he was taught a lesson by Yang Ming as a result. Xu Qianxing didn’t know why Zou Ruoming didn’t come to class this year. His position as the student council president was taken by the former vice president. The vacant vice president position was given to Chen Mengyan who worked hard.

As Xu Qianxing wanted to continue to say something, a ringtone was heard from Lin Zhiyun’s bag. Lin Zhiyun made an apologetic gesture to Xu Qianxing and took out the phone from her bag.

Looking at the N97 in Lin Zhiyun’s hands, Xu Qianxing’s face changed slightly. Xu Qianxing thought her family had a simple life when he saw that Lin Zhiyun’s clothes were so plain usually. He did not expect her to use such a high-end mobile phone.

Most of the students used a counterfeit phone which cost a few hundred yuan. Those who were rich were even a minority, but it could be seen from Lin Zhiyun’s phone that her family background wasn’t bad.

It seems that my plan has to be adjusted. I have to spend some money to attract Lin Zhiyun. Xu Qianxing began to contemplate how to change his plan.

“Hello?” Lin Zhiyun picked up the phone.

“Zhiyun, where are you?” The voice of Yang Ming that came over the phone delighted Lin Zhiyun.

“My class just ended. I am in the teaching building of the Department of Management,” said Lin Zhiyun.

” Oh ? That’s great. Let’s go eat something together. I have a class tonight.” Yang Ming said after listening.

“Okay,” Lin Zhiyun agreed without thinking. “Then you wait downstairs of the department; I will go down now.”

“Okay, see you later.” Yang Ming hung up as he finished.

“Who is it?” Xu Qianxing asked casually. He wanted to pursue Lin Zhiyun, so he naturally had to ask her about some topics in life. He could build a friendship with her by just discussing work matters with her, but how could he build a romantic relationship without friendship?

“President Xu, I can’t have dinner with you. Someone has invited me.” Lin Zhiyun naturally didn’t want to say too much about herself to Xu Qianxing.

” Oh ? Your friend? Let’s just eat together.” Xu Qianxing didn’t think that the person who called Lin Zhiyun was her boyfriend. He only thought the person was her roommate or friend.

“No. President Xu, we can go by ourselves.” Lin Zhiyun shook her head and refused.

Xu Qianxing thought that Lin Zhiyun felt embarrassed, so he said, “It doesn’t matter; I will treat. Your friend is also my friend. Maybe we can discuss it to let you two perform at the art festival show.”

This sentence really got Lin Zhiyun’s interest. Just now, Xu Qianxing said that she could find a partner to perform with her at the art festival program. Lin Zhiyun immediately thought of Yang Ming. If Yang Ming could perform with her, then she would certainly not be nervous.

So, Lin Zhiyun was moved when Xu Qianxing said that they could discuss the performance at the art festival. However, she thought that Yang Ming had just returned not long ago, and she hadn’t spent much time with him yet. How could Lin Zhiyun be willing to have a third wheel in such an opportunity to be alone with Yang Ming?

Although she was tender, didn’t fight for anything, and wouldn’t be jealous of anything, it didn’t mean that she didn’t like to be alone with Yang Ming. Even a generous girl couldn’t be completely selfless. Even if Chen Mengyan was always selflessly letting Lin Zhiyun and Zhou Jiajia be with Yang Ming first, Lin Zhiyun herself also hoped to be alone with Yang Ming.
