After five bigwigs in Beijing's elite circle fell into their trap, I fled.

Chapter 118 Love and Team Building
Once the person in question appeared, everyone, whether they were right or wrong, fell silent.

Jiang Liufeng slowly lowered his sleeves, took out a tissue to wipe his hands, and said apologetically, "I was too impulsive! I'm very sorry for disturbing Chairman Ning."

Just as Ning Yunzhan was about to speak, his clothes were gently tugged from behind.

He turned slightly to look at Jiang Shu beside him.

Jiang Shu was wearing a mask, so her expression was obscured. But her eyes held a mixture of gossip and pleading...

Ning Yunzhan coughed lightly and lowered his voice: "What instructions does the benefactor have?"

Jiang Shu replied in a low voice, "Don't speak, leave it to me."

Ning Yunzhan smiled, took a half step back, and Jiang Shu adjusted her mask and lazily walked to the scene of the incident.

She looked curiously at the patriarch of the official family, whose face was swollen like a pig's head and whose body was covered in bruises, and asked his assistant, "Did you call a doctor?"

The assistant replied with a complicated tone, "Yes, every time we go out, a medical vehicle is arranged to wait outside."

Jiang Shu exclaimed in surprise, "You guys knew he was going to get beaten up?"

“I get beaten up three or four times a month.” Jiang Liufeng said this. He was the one who was beating people up, but he looked more haggard than the one who was being beaten up.

Jiang Shu hissed, "You guys planned this?"

Jiang Liufeng gave her a strange look: "Young lady, you seem very interested in the gossip about our two families. May I ask who you are?"

Beside him, Ning Yunzhan said softly, "This is my honored guest. Today, she can represent me fully."

"What does plenipotentiary mean?"

Ning Yunzhan said, "It includes, but is not limited to, discussing compensation for the damage to my ground and the disturbance to my distinguished guests."

Jiang Shu nodded: "That's right. I'll find out the whole story so I can present our compensation plan later—so, you all agreed to do this on my Ning Yunzhan's turf?"

Beside him, Old Master Jiang paced over, his face grim: "That beast, so despicable and shameless! Given my daughter's personality, the fact that she only crippled him instead of killing him shows that she intended to spare his life. But this bastard, even with that life, keeps coming back to torment our Jiang family every few days!"

Jiang Shu exclaimed, "Tell me more?"

Grandpa Jiang glanced at Jiang Shu: "It's all a bunch of awful messes, like that bastard suddenly changing his name to Guan Muyun, saying he'd remain chaste for my daughter! Screw him! We've already broken up, what else can he do but remain chaste? He's just making excuses for his impotence and dragging my daughter into it!"

Jiang Shu took a deep breath: "Scumbag! This guy is a real scumbag!"

Old Master Jiang spat, "Over the years, this bastard has sent people to search my Jiang family home, claiming that we've hidden our daughter. He's even dug up several of our cellars! Digging up cellars was one thing, but this time he even dared to dig up our graves!"

Jiang Shu took another deep breath: "He deserves to be hit! He really deserves to be hit!"

"If he can't have sex, he gets a dog. He named the dog after my daughter and holds it in his arms for comfort every day. Another time, I found out he consulted a shaman who took my daughter's birth date and time to arrange a ghost marriage for him; he even secretly went into my daughter's room to scatter paper money and summon her spirit. That bastard! He causes several absurd things every month. He's so infuriating that I'll lose several years of my life!"

Jiang Shu asked the question she was most concerned about: "Was he really broken... all three legs?"

"This matter has become known throughout the capital, and even now that bastard is still not giving up and is seeking medical treatment everywhere—I hope he can't be cured, and if he is, I'll interrupt him again."

Beside him, Ning Yunzhan gradually recognized the familiar sounds. He met Jiang Shu's gaze and saw that she was also deep in thought, a strange sense of fate rising within him.

Jiang Shu, finally satisfied, stopped asking questions. She then picked up a blank piece of paper, quickly calculated for a while, and handed it to Grandpa Jiang: "Grandpa, there are three bloodstains on the floor, and a few plants are broken. The cleaning fee and plant care fee will total 1,800. Since you seem very approachable, I'll give you a discount and only charge you 800. WeChat or Alipay?"

Grandpa Jiang was stunned for a moment.

Beside him, Jiang Liufeng took out his phone: "I'll do it."

I paid the money readily.

Then, he looked at Guan Muyun lying on the ground with disdain again, his eyes revealing real murderous intent: "I'll leave the grave you dug up for you. If you mess with us again, we'll throw you in there."

Guan Muyun wiped the blood from his nose and said, "Take care, brother-in-law."

Jiang Liufeng clenched his fist, glared at him coldly, and helped the old man leave.

Jiang Shu finally turned her gaze to Guan Muyun.

Unlike his whiny, obnoxious manner when Jiang Liufeng beat him up, Guan Muyun was dashing and refined in front of outsiders, truly displaying the demeanor of a noble family.

Jiang Shu walked over slowly with her hands in her pockets.

Guan Muyun slowly and methodically straightened the clothes that Jiang Liufeng had torn, and with the help of his assistant, he slowly sat back in his wheelchair, elegantly covering himself with a blanket before gently asking Jiang Shu, "Little girl, you've heard enough gossip. Have you figured out how much I need to pay in compensation?"

Jiang Shu leaned a little closer, curiously examining him. His face, swollen from the beating, still revealed his handsome features, and his air of frivolousness and debauchery seemed even stronger up close.

"Young lady, don't look around like that." Guan Muyun's tone became somewhat indifferent. "I'm not your type."

"..." Jiang Shu coughed lightly, "If I may ask, is it true... all three are broken—"

Ning Yunzhan pulled Jiang Shu back to his side, his tone tinged with distress: "Master Jiang, you are a girl, you shouldn't ask about these things so casually."

Jiang Shu said "Oh," and then asked, "Then let me ask something else. This... Lord Guan, right? Did you really have a ghost marriage and summon a spirit? Aren't your current wife and children making a fuss?"

Guan Muyun's expression faltered slightly: "Young lady, don't talk nonsense! What do you mean by 'current wife and children'? I've only been married once..."

Jiang Shu said "Oh," and looked at him quietly for a while before taking out her phone's QR code to receive payment: "You also have eight hundred, pay up."

The assistant quickly transferred the money. Then he whispered something in Guan Muyun's ear.

Guan Muyun immediately turned his gaze to Ning Yunzhan: "Chairman Ning, I'm sorry about today's incident. If there's nothing else, I'll be leaving now."

The officials left in a hurry and soon disappeared from sight.

Ning Yunzhan's feelings were slightly complicated: "What are you feeling right now, Mr. Sugar Daddy?"

“Just a stranger!” Jiang Shu raised an eyebrow indifferently. “It was just a little unexpected. And she’s not quite what I imagined…”

"Want to admit it?"

Jiang Shu stared at him as if she'd seen a ghost: "What nonsense are you spouting! Even if he is or isn't, if I dared to admit it, my mom would break both my legs! Besides, aren't five little drama queens enough? Do I really need to provoke another whiny one? Am I crazy?" Ning Yunzhan: "..."

Pet camp group.

The pets who watched the entire live broadcast through Tianluo's surveillance system were still somewhat reluctant to leave.

The smug cat: [It shouldn't be. How could the official's bloodline, so insane, possibly produce such a perfect girl as my darling!]

The Queen's loyal dog: [No, not at all]

Beiming Youyu: [Let's not talk about irrelevant people. Tonight, Yunduan Group is having a singles team building event. Given our 'perfect' performance at the last water obstacle course team building event, I plan to take her to see what it's like and see if she can open up some eyes.]

Beiming Youyu: [Those in the group who are interested are welcome to join, but remember to disguise yourself to avoid disrupting the order.]

Bliss: [I can go. I'll pick up my sugar daddy tomorrow while I'm at it.]

Canary: [I pass, I'm in Vienna, too late]

The Queen's loyal dog: [I can go]

The smug cat: [Just you wait!]

……

Putting away his phone, Ning Yunzhan extended his hand to Jiang Shu: "Let's go, Mr. Sugar Daddy. This afternoon I'll take you to see those pre-sale properties in the Cloud Town area, and then tonight I'll take you back to the Cloud Town Group for team building."

Jiang Shu was still looking at the group chat on her phone: "Why is 'perfect' in quotes for your perfect performance in the last water obstacle course? What does 'open your mind' mean?"

Ning Yunzhan thought for a moment and smiled, "Last time, our patron was only busy conquering the finish line and neglected teamwork. Tonight, let our patron show you what real team building is all about."

"Cooperation..." Jiang Shu hesitated, "...teamwork?"

“Yes,” Ning Yunzhan added, “And the team that works together perfectly can win a generous prize.”

Jiang Shu's eyes suddenly lit up!
into the night.

The headquarters of Yunduan Group features a super-large event plaza.

Staff were already setting up the venue. Ning Yunzhan and Jiang Shu, dressed in matching yellow duck costumes, stood in a less crowded area, watching men and women in cute outfits enter one after another.

"There are so many single men and women in your cloud world!" Jiang Shu assessed the situation. "But after looking around, most of the men and women seem to be physically weak. With my physique, my chances of winning the prize are quite high!"

"Don't just think about winning the award," Ning Yunzhan chuckled. "Our sponsor is focusing on the process; a party for singles is a lot of fun..."

As the two were talking, a commotion arose behind them.

Three tall men wearing masks and baseball caps walked in.

Unlike the men of all shapes and sizes who had just entered, the three men who entered now, even if their faces were not clearly visible, possessed a captivating, aloof, or sharp aura, coupled with their impeccable height, that instantly outshone all the other men!
The women from Yunduan Group who participated in the event had incredibly bright eyes, and some of them couldn't contain their excitement and started covering their mouths and screaming!
Ning Yunzhan glanced at the group helplessly: "I told you all to keep your disguises."

Feng Li's peach blossom eyes held a hint of disdain: "I'm already wearing a mask and hat, what more do you want from me? Even just my shadow is incredibly handsome, what can I do?"

Ning Yunzhan stopped arguing with him and simply took out several sets of matching yellow duck outfits from the side: "Put them on. Today, we'll form a team."

Jiang Shu reminded everyone, "When the event starts, make sure you look for our little yellow duck and don't stand in the wrong line."

The little yellow duck costume was baggy and oversized, with a cute little bib on its chest and a built-in mask design, except for the eyes. The newcomers immediately went to the changing room to change, and when they came out, the commotion was indeed much less.

While waiting to sign in, Jiang Shu got bored and went to the prize area to keep an eye on the gifts she wanted. Meanwhile, four men watched her leisurely.

Looking at the decorations filled with a strong fan atmosphere, Li Yubai hesitated a bit: "Would it be inappropriate to bring her to this kind of romantic team building event?"

Feng Li scoffed: "Think about how my back almost broke during the last team building event, and how you all ended up like drowning dogs. I don't have high expectations for today either. If she can learn a little to be considerate of women, it will be much easier for us to communicate in the future."

Rong Jingchen agreed: "At nineteen, it's time for her to start learning."

Ning Yunzhan nodded slightly: "That's what I think too. Rather than letting her be strung along by a little flirtation when she's in college and we can't see her, it's better to let her experience the feast of love more often—wait, you all work hard and teach her a good lesson."

Li Yubai reminded, "It's okay to play around a bit, but you also need to be mindful of boundaries. After all, the big spender isn't a stranger; you should at least show them some respect."

Ning Yunzhan chuckled and said, "Basic respect? What do you mean?"

Li Yubai pointed to the game segment commentary on the side of the stage:
"Push-ups and mouth-to-mouth feeding are not allowed."

Ning Yunzhan paused for a moment: "Even if you gave me the guts, I wouldn't dare."

Over there, Jiang Shu strode back with a brisk pace, waving her hand and saying, "I've got my eye on that 1.2-meter-tall fat goose, and that pearl flower basket. Get to work on them with all your might!"

A few more minutes passed, and hundreds of people had arrived at the scene and formed their own teams.

The host, who was also the head of the publicity department on the cloud, finally began to give his opening remarks:

"...The annual singles team building event has finally begun! We have 396 people here, divided into 100 teams. As usual, those who successfully pair up tonight will receive an extra 'Wagyu Family' couple's set meal worth 3999 yuan, in addition to the prizes they receive at the event. If they get married within a year, they will receive an extra honeymoon trip budget of 50,000 yuan! Now we'll randomly interview a few teams. Come on, this little yellow duck team, please come up to the stage!"

Ning Yunzhan and the others were all stunned for a moment.

The host chuckled: "It's you guys! I've been watching you for a while now! I'm sure all the women here have been watching you too! Come on, please come up on stage. Be bold and show yourselves; you'll get more attention from the women later!"

Jiang Shu had already stepped up and casually waved to Ning Yunzhan and the others.

Ning Yunzhan and the others exchanged glances, then followed her up and stood in a row with her.

The host handed the microphone to Jiang Shu, pointing to her name tag: "Little Yellow Duck No. 1? All the other groups sign in with their real names, but your group is using the code name 'Little Yellow Duck.' And your group's physique alone is particularly eye-catching. I've been in Yunduan for many years, how come I don't remember when our company had so many model-like, top-quality single ladies? May I ask which department in Yunduan you are from?"

Jiang Shu thought for a moment and said, "52nd floor."

The scene was so shocking!
The host laughed heartily: "The 52nd floor is the chairman's office area! Are you colleagues from the chairman's secretariat? Welcome, welcome! The secretariat is full of the chairman's close advisors, with unlimited potential. Tonight, the single women will probably be fighting over you!"

Someone nearby immediately became suspicious: "Wait a minute, there are no single people in the secretariat! You've given false information about your identities!"
