Just as Luo Lingtian and Qin Qingcheng were enjoying their passionate lovemaking, a slender yet tall figure slowly walked out of the exit of Haishi International Airport.

The woman wore a well-tailored black business suit that accentuated her slender figure. With her neat short hair, she exuded a capable and confident aura, making her stand out even through the crowd.

As soon as she stepped out of the station exit, she saw a black sedan waiting by the roadside. She walked straight over, opened the door, and got in. The sedan immediately started and sped off towards the city center.

Meanwhile, in another exquisitely decorated and luxurious villa, Dongfang Mingyue was lying on the large bed in the bedroom, repeatedly replaying the moments she had spent with Luo Lingtian that evening in her mind, pondering how to make contact with Luo Lingtian again and further narrow the distance between the two.

Just then, the cell phone on the bedside table suddenly rang with a crisp ringtone, breaking the silence of the room.

Dongfang Mingyue casually picked up her phone and answered. Before she could even speak, a voice that was both familiar and somewhat unfamiliar came through the receiver: "Dongfang Mingyue?"

Upon hearing the voice on the other end of the phone, Dongfang Mingyue's mind went blank for a moment, and her expression froze. She quickly recovered, sat up abruptly in bed, glanced at the unfamiliar number on her phone screen, and then put the phone back to her ear, asking uncertainly, "Song Xinyan?"

"It's me," came Song Xinyan's calm voice from the receiver.

"The fact that you called me suggests that you've also awakened memories of your past life."

Dongfang Mingyue twirled a strand of hair that fell over her shoulder with her fingertips, a hint of understanding flashing in her eyes. Then, she asked curiously, "But why did it take you so long to contact me? Did you only recently awaken?"

"It's true that he only recently awakened, but in terms of timing, he shouldn't be much later than you."

Song Xinyan's voice came through the receiver, carrying a low tone as if she had just pulled herself out of her thoughts.

During this time, she secretly used the resources of the Zhao Group to collect a lot of information about the recent activities of Luo Lingtian, Dongfang Mingyue, Qin Qingcheng, and others. After combining this with the timeline of those key events in her memory, she gradually came to a conclusion: her awakening time should not be too late.

After a slight pause, Song Xinyan's tone became more serious: "However, that woman Qin Qingcheng may have awakened her powers earlier than you and me."

This was not a wild guess, but a rigorous deduction based on established facts from her previous life.

She knew all too well the bond between Dongfang Mingyue and Luo Lingtian. In her past life, Dongfang Mingyue was Luo Lingtian's lawfully wedded wife. Luo Lingtian was such a near-perfect man, possessing both extraordinary talent and immense power. What was even more remarkable was his tenderness and affection for his partner. If Dongfang Mingyue were to awaken her memories of her past life, she would never abandon him and choose someone else.

Following this logic, the conclusion becomes crystal clear: "If Dongfang Mingyue had awakened earlier than Qin Qingcheng, given her feelings for Luo Lingtian, she would have found him immediately and should have moved into Lingtian Manor long ago to seize the initiative."

But the reality is that it is Qin Qingcheng who now lives in Lingtian Manor and stays by Luo Lingtian's side day and night.

This undeniable fact directly corroborated her conjecture: "Obviously, Dongfang Mingyue, you awakened your past life memories later than Qin Qingcheng, which is why you missed the first opportunity to get close to Luo Lingtian."

"Indeed, I awakened my memories right after Qin Qingcheng arrived in Haishi," Dongfang Mingyue's voice came from the other end of the receiver, carrying a hint of helplessness that was hard to hide, confirming Song Xinyan's deduction. "Moreover, on the day I awakened, I paid special attention to the activities at Lingtian Manor. At that time, Qin Qingcheng had already officially moved in, and there were people arranged by Luo Lingtian to take care of her."

As soon as she finished speaking, Dongfang Mingyue added, "However, you don't need to worry too much. I have already met with Qin Qingcheng, and from our conversation, I can confirm that she cannot stop us from getting close to Luo Lingtian."

"Aren't you worried that she might have ulterior motives for being by Ling Tian's side?" Song Xinyan immediately asked, her tone full of doubt.

She took the initiative to contact Dongfang Mingyue, her core purpose being to unite with Luo Lingtian's wife from her previous life to counterbalance Qin Qingcheng. After all, in her previous life, Qin Qingcheng was the most crucial background force for Xiao Chen's rise to power. She not only provided Xiao Chen with massive resource support but also helped him avoid countless overt suppressions. Without Qin Qingcheng's help, Xiao Chen would not have been qualified to be her opponent.

"I had my concerns about this too, and I was even prepared to confront her head-on," Dongfang Mingyue said slowly after a moment of thought. "But after talking to her in depth, I can confirm that she did not help Xiao Chen voluntarily in her past life."

At this point, she abruptly changed the subject, throwing out another crucial piece of information: "I suppose you've been following the situation between Yu Bingyu and Zhao Hao, haven't you? Don't you think their recent behavior has been rather strange?"

"Now that you mention it, something does seem off." Song Xinyan frowned subconsciously, and the information she had gathered about Zhao Hao and Yu Bingyu immediately came to mind. "Based on this information, Yu Bingyu has definitely awakened her past life memories. As for Zhao Hao, we can't be completely sure yet."

"Huh? What do you mean?" Dongfang Mingyue's voice revealed a hint of surprise, clearly not understanding the twist in her words.

"Think about how Yu Bingyu treated Zhao Hao in her past life?" Song Xinyan patiently explained. "Think about how Yu Bingyu treated Ahao in her past life? If Ahao had also awakened his past life memories, then... well, it's hard to say."

At the end of the conversation, Song Xinyan suddenly changed her mind. She suddenly remembered that Zhao Hao and Yu Bingyu were originally an enviable couple on campus. They loved each other and had a perfect understanding. But later, Yu Bingyu's attitude suddenly changed.

Recalling what Dongfang Mingyue had said before, that Qin Qingcheng hadn't willingly helped Xiao Chen in her past life, a bold guess emerged in her mind: Did Yu Bingyu also encounter a similar problem to Qin Qingcheng?

If this conjecture is true, then Zhao Hao's transformation can also be explained. It should be noted that at the same time as Yu Bingyu's personality changed, Zhao Hao's personality and behavior also underwent many strange changes.

Zhao Hao was originally a standout among the younger generation, both in his composure and competence in handling affairs and in his demeanor in dealing with people.

But after that, he seemed to have become a completely different person. His heart and eyes were filled with Yu Bingyu, and he even became completely ignorant of the fields he used to be good at.

The Zhao family was baffled by this, and some elders even speculated that Zhao Hao might have been "possessed".

Such a claim, which only appears in fantasy novels, is undoubtedly unacceptable nonsense to people living in modern society who admire science. It can only be regarded as an excuse for the Zhao family to refuse to accept reality.

However, the difference in Zhao Hao's behavior before and after was so great that it could not be ignored. Even though Song Xinyan was always rational, she couldn't help but waver after learning of this speculation.

"It seems you've thought of something." Hearing Song Xinyan suddenly change her tune, Dongfang Mingyue keenly noticed the change in her tone, raised her eyebrows slightly, and took the initiative to ask.

"I have thought of some things, but the details still need to be sorted out. Let's talk about the specifics when we meet tomorrow." Song Xinyan nodded, and then made a new suggestion, "Since you've met Qin Qingcheng, you should have her contact information, right? Tell her to come along too. Some things are easier to clarify in person."

"Okay," Dongfang Mingyue readily agreed.

"That's all for now. I've had a busy day, so I need to rest early and get some rest for tomorrow's meeting." Song Xinyan's voice revealed a hint of fatigue.

Okay, goodnight.

"Good night."

After hanging up the phone, Dongfang Mingyue sat in front of the dressing table, her fingertips lightly tracing the surface, her eyes slightly lost in thought.

A moment later, her beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, a sharp glint flashing in them: Perhaps tomorrow, it will be revealed whether Qin Qingcheng was lying about what she said last time.

Indeed, although she appeared to trust Qin Qingcheng completely when they met last time, she never let her guard down against her deep down.

Although in her previous life she had seen those "novels" in Luo Lingtian's study that recorded the fates of all of them, she found the so-called "protagonist halo" and "plot correction power" in them absurd and ridiculous. They were just plots in novels, and she simply did not believe that such a mysterious power that could control people's hearts existed in the real world.

Just like herself, although she had met Xiao Chen, she never felt that her thoughts were influenced by any external force. On the contrary, after meeting Luo Lingtian, she clearly defined her goals from the beginning.

Therefore, she was only half-convinced by Qin Qingcheng's previous conversation. After all, Qin Qingcheng's personality did undergo a significant change before and after arriving in Haishi in her previous life. However, no one could be sure whether this change was due to the "manipulation by a mysterious force" that Qin Qingcheng mentioned, or a natural change caused by falling in love.

You know, it's not surprising that a woman in love will do some strange things, and of course, the same goes for men.

On the morning of the second day, in a luxuriously decorated private room at the Qiyuan Cafe in the city center business district, three beautiful figures sat in a triangle around a round solid wood table.

It was Song Xinyan and Dongfang Mingyue, who had spoken on the phone last night, and Qin Qingcheng, who had been notified by Dongfang Mingyue.

The three women each have their own unique style and temperament: Song Xinyan is dressed in a well-tailored black suit skirt, with exquisite makeup, exuding the competence and composure of a career woman.

Dongfang Mingyue wore a light pink dress, her eyes were bright and lively, and she had a noble air with a touch of mischievousness, making people feel close to her.

Qin Qingcheng wore a long red dress, her red lips were like fire, her eyes were cold, and she was surrounded by an aura of arrogance and cold beauty that kept strangers at bay.

Without exception, all three were stunningly beautiful women with captivating looks and graceful figures. Their mere presence created a visually striking scene.
