The yandere is too beautiful; the fake heiress sneaks kisses through the window every day.

Shen Ji sat up, lifted his eyelids, and asked a strange question with a half-smile on his lips, "Do you want me to drink?"

Jiang Yu nodded.

Shen Ji gazed at her intently, then his gaze fell on the small medicine bottle. Suddenly, he smiled, and even the beauty mark under his eye became more vibrant. "Okay."

He grabbed the medicine bottle, drank it all in one gulp, threw the empty bottle on the ground, turned to Jiang Yu, and asked, "Can I sleep now?"

Unexpectedly, the Empress was so well-behaved today. Jiang Yu smiled with relief, then fed him a marshmallow as usual, and ate two herself.

Watching the little girl whose cheeks puffed out after eating two marshmallows, Shen Ji's gaze slowly fell on her soft, rosy lips.

His expression darkened slightly as he thought of something, and he took a bite of the cotton candy in his mouth, finding it cloyingly sweet.

The sweetness in my mouth lessened slightly as my tongue swept across my teeth. I lowered my brows and looked away as if nothing had happened.

Holding the sweet and soft Empress made for a good sleep. Jiang Yu woke up early, refreshed and full of energy, without any dreams. She glanced at the sky outside; it was just getting light and the sun hadn't risen yet.

She needed to hurry back to the Jiang family home while it was still early, otherwise there would be nine locks on her room window instead of six.

Before leaving, he didn't forget to give the Empress a kiss.

Just as the sun was rising, Jiang Yu arrived at the Jiang family home. She quietly climbed through the window and went back inside. Everything was perfect until she opened the door and encountered Wang Ma.

"Oh? Miss, you're home?" Wang Ma looked surprised to see Jiang Yu. "I came to ask you last night if you wanted a late-night snack, but you weren't here, so I thought you had gone out."

The Empress's composed expression faltered for a moment, and she looked at her expressionlessly, "You've mistaken me."

"Am I seeing things wrong?" Seeing Jiang Yu's certainty, Wang Ma began to doubt herself.

At that moment, the door to the next room opened, and Jiang Mingyue came out. When she looked up, she saw two pairs of eyes staring at her.

She was about to ask what was wrong when Aunt Wang spoke first.

"Young Miss, you're home too?"

"I came to ask you last night if you wanted a late-night snack, but you weren't there, so I thought you had gone out."

The same words, the same question. Jiang Mingyue, the one being questioned, stiffened, her usually cool face turning slightly serious. Staring into Wang Ma's eyes, she said righteously, "You're mistaken. I didn't go out."

"Did I see wrong? That shouldn't be the case." Wang Ma scratched her head, her eyebrows furrowed in confusion.

Jiang Mingyue: "You've misunderstood."

"Could it be that I really saw wrong, and you were all actually in the room?" Wang Ma looked left and right, scratched her head, and muttered to herself as she went downstairs.

Jiang Mingyue breathed a barely perceptible sigh of relief, then turned to meet Jiang Yu's inexplicably affirmative gaze.

Is it another relapse?

When Wang Ma returned, Jiang's mother, unusually, didn't cook herself and enjoyed a delicious breakfast with Jiang Yu.

After finishing her meal, Jiang Mingyue put down her chopsticks and looked around as if she was looking for something.

She asked.

"Where is my father? I haven't seen him for the past two days."

Jiang's mother explained gently, "Your father is at the company. It seems he's taken on a big project and is too busy to handle it all. He's been staying at the company lately, so don't worry."

But she was proven wrong as soon as she finished speaking; Jiang's father returned.

"Husband? Didn't you tell me you weren't coming back anytime soon?" Jiang's mother asked, looking surprised at Jiang's father.

"I'm coming back to grab some clean clothes, I'll be leaving right away." Father Jiang smiled, but his face betrayed his exhaustion.

"Have you had breakfast? You eat first, I'll go upstairs and help you pack." Jiang's mother pulled Jiang's father to sit down and went upstairs to pack her things.

Wang Ma, with her keen eye, brought out a breakfast.

Father Jiang did not move, but looked up at Jiang Yu and Jiang Mingyue with his usual fatherly smile, but today his smile was tinged with weariness and worry.

"How are Da Bao and Xiao Bao doing lately?" Father Jiang asked with concern.

"Very good," Jiang Mingyue replied calmly.

"If you need anything, just tell your mother. Don't feel bad about yourself, and don't worry about anything. Dad will take care of everything." Mr. Jiang gently reminded her, ate a few bites of breakfast, and then hurriedly left after taking the luggage that Mrs. Jiang had packed.

Watching their father's hurried departure, Jiang Yu and Jiang Mingyue exchanged a knowing glance and silently went upstairs.

Jiang Yu: "Something's not right."

Jiang Mingyue: "Something's not right."

After a two-second silence, Jiang Mingyue spoke with almost certainty, "He's hiding something from us."

Jiang Yu tilted her head and pondered for a moment before saying, "Go and check if anything major has happened to the Jiang family recently."

Jiang Mingyue also guessed that there might be a problem with the company. She went back to her room, took out her computer, and began to investigate. Strings of obscure and difficult-to-understand code appeared on the computer screen.

The Empress was greatly impressed and offered wonderful praise.

"(*ﾟﾛﾟ) Wow~"

Although she couldn't understand it, it seemed very impressive.

The sparkle in her eyes was abruptly shattered by the other person's unexpected words.

"Quiet." Jiang Mingyue said without looking up, her tone helpless and cold.

Jiang Mingyue quickly discovered that the Jiang family had recently won a major project in the bidding process. If the project succeeded, the Jiang family would definitely rise to a higher level.

The Jiang family invested almost all their funds in this project, but they never expected it to fail. Not only did all their investment go down the drain, but they may also face huge penalties for breach of contract.

"So the Jiang family is going bankrupt?" Jiang Yu pondered for a moment and then concluded.

"With the Jiang family's current capabilities, it's true that they can't solve this problem, or so you could say," Jiang Mingyue gave a fair answer.

"If the Jiang family goes bankrupt, does that mean we can't rebel anymore?" Jiang Yu frowned, realizing the crux of the matter.

Jiang Mingyue was shocked and speechless.

Wake up! Even if you don't go bankrupt, you can't turn things around at all!

"Is that the point? The point is that the Jiang family went bankrupt, and Father might end up in jail as a scapegoat." Jiang Mingyue emphasized the key point, rubbing her forehead in exasperation.

"Can we fish it out?" Jiang Yu asked instinctively.

"We can't salvage it." Jiang Mingyue said expressionlessly, her tone devoid of emotion. After a pause, she changed the subject, "But it's not entirely hopeless."

Jiang Yu looked down at her.

"As long as the Jiang family finds more authoritative technical support, they will naturally be able to overcome this difficulty," Jiang Mingyue said slowly.

"I also found something interesting." Jiang Mingyue curled her lips and showed Jiang Yu the things on the computer. "This time, the Jiang Group's collapse was mostly a trap set by the Xu family in conjunction with Jiang Group's rival companies. They not only poached several of Jiang Group's key technical personnel, but also secretly prevented Jiang Group from recruiting talent."

"The Xu family?" Jiang Yu asked, puzzled.

"Do you remember Xu Peipei from the Lu family banquet?" Jiang Mingyue reminded her.

"Is it her?"

Meeting Jiang Yu's questioning gaze, Jiang Mingyue smiled but remained silent.

Even a fool could guess why Hsu Pei-pei was targeting the Chiang family.

"What do you mean by more authoritative technical support?" Jiang Yu asked, frowning.

Jiang Mingyue said, "We just need to find someone more capable than those who were poached."

The nonchalant expression on Jiang Yu's face faded, replaced by a coldness befitting a superior. Without a word, she strode out.

"Where are you going?" Seeing her leave with a murderous aura, Jiang Mingyue was worried that she might do something foolish and immediately tried to persuade her with legal advice, "Calm down, murder is against the law."
