The game's heroine has come true? The aloof school beauty is in tears.

Anyone's understanding of the situation is just guesswork.

But if it's Huang Zhiyu's words, then it's a little different.

"Huang Zhiyu, tell me quickly what's going on?"

Xiao Xu saw Huang Zhiyu as if he were her savior.

I pulled her into the bar area, and we whispered to each other in a corner:

"Was that group of express delivery drivers assembled from a distance?"

"There's no definite news, but that's roughly it."

"Why is it still 'approximately'?"

If there's anyone in the world besides Lu Yuan who truly knows his thoughts, it's definitely Huang Zhiyu.

"Because building a team costs money, nobody knows where Lu Yuan got the money from."

"You definitely didn't backstab me this time, right? You must have some hidden energy in Lu Yuan's back, right?"

"When did I betray him?"

"Haven't you betrayed us enough?"

She was a witness to both of the previous betrayals of Xiao Xu, so she is the person most qualified to speak on the matter.

"Please, sister, don't betray me this time."

"Am I crazy? Would I betray him?"

Huang Zhiyu had no idea what kind of nonsense Xiao Xu was thinking.

"You're not talking about the wanted poster, are you?"

"Of course, now everyone knows that you were also an accomplice in the hunt for the Crown Prince."

"I was forced into it."

Huang Zhiyi shrugged and explained the general situation: "The higher-ups were afraid that the distance was too far, so they made preparations in advance and laid an ambush somewhere. Therefore, the first thing they did was to investigate the flow of funds of the Wuhu Group."

After all, you need money to do anything.

The only large sum of money that was eventually traced was used for maid payments; this money was converted into a large amount of cash to serve as a long-term maid budget.

Actually, this wouldn't have been a big deal; it would have been difficult to trace once it was converted into cash. But the problem is that I once borrowed a large sum of money from Lu Yuan for the construction of the gang, and this money also came from the maid's funds..."

Huang Zhiyu was actually wrong. Some of the guys watching the internet cafe entrance were actually keeping an eye on the prince.

Some of them actually came to see her.

She was directly approached by a knock on her car window for a talk, and the reason given was: "Are you willing to return to your original position?"

The visitor succinctly stated his purpose: "First of all, the person who replaces the Crown Prince must have enough credibility to maintain the stability of the underworld environment. Huang Zhiyi's status as the legitimate eldest daughter of the Five Lakes Gang can be stable to the outside world, while her status as the Crown Prince's sister can also be stable internally."

Secondly, the stain of the pension incident on Huang Zhiyu will be entirely attributed to the Crown Prince, making it all the Crown Prince's doing, and Huang Zhiyu can be whitewashed as a loser in the power struggle.

Ultimately, all of this hinges on Huang Zhihui obeying.

The mere fact that someone from higher up came is enough for most people.

But the higher-ups still gave Huang Zhiyi a reason he couldn't refuse: "Do you know that the only large sum of money he could trace was given to you?"

"I know."

"We have no way of tracing whether this large sum of money was entirely used for the maids, but we can trace back to a sum that was given to you. Don't you find that strange?"

"I used to be a maid, and this is a personal relationship between us."

Huang Zhiyu offered this explanation, but it was so weak.

because...

"Why is your transaction the only one that was made via bank transfer?"

Some things are intriguing.

All of Lu Yuan's maid-related transactions were conducted in cash, except for Huang Zhiyi's transaction, which was transferred via bank transfer and was ultimately traced very easily.

If you say it was because he was on a long road and careless, then he must have been careless at all.

If you're going to say that Lu Yuan has ulterior motives, then what exactly are those motives?

"We do not wish to suspect that this prince from the mainland has ulterior motives, so we leave it to you to speculate on his intentions."

However, this single monetary transaction is enough to give us ample reason to investigate you and your group.

The mysterious man left after saying that, without asking Huang Zhiyu to agree to any conditions.

Just as Huang Zhiyu stepped out of the building, the kill order was delivered to her.

If she doesn't sign, she'll be the next one to be investigated.

She had no choice but to sign.

Because it's obvious that this is why Lu Yuan left that trail.

The mysterious man clearly wanted to steer "this trace" toward conspiracy theories, so that Hwang Chi-yu would realize that he was being manipulated.

But Huang Zhiyu knows Lu Yuan very well.

Use a trace of financial transactions.

Huang Zhiyu didn't even need to actively surrender; she would passively stand on the enemy's side.

Huang Zhiyi didn't tell anyone these things; she only planned to tell Xiao Xu.

Because Xiao Xu is a complete outsider, any information she obtains is useless.

When she told Xiao Xu all of this.

Xiao Xu's face was quite a sight:

"I understand, Lu Yuan really knows how to use people."

"What do you know?"

"Because you're a master of backstabbing, Lu Yuan chose to have you join the enemy camp so he can stab you in the back at the crucial moment..."

"What nonsense are you spouting?" Huang Zhiyu shook her head and said, "That's not true at all."

"What is it?"

"This is a maid game between the two of us."

Huang Zhiyu was muttering something that Xiao Xu couldn't understand at all.

She said, "The key to becoming a Tier 3 maid is becoming a villain."

"How did you get involved with the maid again?"

Do you know anything about SM?

"I know a little bit."

As a cold academic machine, after Lu Yuan finished talking about SM that day.

She studied diligently for a long time and even downloaded many related papers.

Ultimately, through comparison with a large number of academic samples, she discovered that she might indeed be a potential masochist.

The shock this brought to Huang Zhiyu was no less than the discovery of a new continent.

"I'm such a masochist."

"The situation is so dire, why are you still discussing this kind of thing?"

"This is important."

This is really important to Hwang Chih-yu, because she has finally discovered something else she possesses.

She had very little, so this discovery was extremely precious to her.

"I've discovered that the trait 'm' itself is an extreme pursuit of power. The desire for power is human nature, and 'm' is an extreme example of this nature being amplified."

"so what?"

"So that explains my backstabbing behavior."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Xu was filled with questions. It was the first time he had ever heard of someone analyzing themselves like an academic.

"Backstabbing is stupid, what's there to explain?"

"Thinking about the causes of stupidity is to avoid making stupid mistakes next time." Huang Zhiyu did not reject the evaluation of stupidity, but instead rationally studied this matter: "In fact, a large number of sample cases have found that the relationship between the controller and the controlled is not long-lasting."

Because it is essentially still an intimate relationship, it inevitably exhibits the common trait of all intimate relationships: familiarity breeds contempt.

The longer people spend time together, the more the filter of mystery that creates it gradually fades, leading to an unconscious tendency to look down on the other person.

This is a minor issue in ordinary intimate relationships because everyone retains their own autonomy.

However, this is a major taboo in relationships where the controlled party completely relinquishes their autonomy. This is because it leads to the return of the relinquished autonomy, causing the controlled party to develop their own ideas and ultimately causing the relationship to collapse. There are numerous examples of such backlash.

This is a very simple principle.

Why did Huang Zhiyi dare to shoot Lu Yuan? Because Lu Yuan wasn't strong enough in her eyes.

In short, Huang Zhiyu is that kind of woman; if you are weaker than her, she won't even give you the time of day.

If you are stronger than her, she will give you everything.

It's hard to say whether this is fair or not, because reality is made up of countless daily events, not like comparing levels or who can deal more damage in a game.

So here's the problem: in reality, she often has the thought that she is more powerful...

"If I hadn't seriously thought about and studied this matter, I would have had two options when faced with this transaction record: either I would think that Lu Yuan was plotting against me, or I would not sign the kill order and would directly lead my people to help Lu Yuan."

"I think both of these behaviors are acceptable; at least they are both human nature."

"From my perspective, the first two betrayals were understandable."

"Just tell me exactly what you want to do."

"Always believe that in the world I see, Lu Yuan is the most powerful person, and everything is under his control."

Huang Zhiyu nodded, left with that ambiguous remark, and turned to leave.

Xiao Xu didn't understand either.

Because she doesn't care about that right now, since she's been up all night and is incredibly tired.

The following day should be calm enough.

But the fighting will likely reignite tonight.

She needed to catch up on her sleep so she could hear more news later that night.

As dusk settled again, crowds gathered at the bar for drinks.

She quickly got up to find out what had happened that day.

You wouldn't believe it until you heard it; it was quite a shock.

The first message reads: "All gangs believe that the Crown Prince was behind the Tooth Gang's activities, so they are no longer willing to be defeated one by one by him, but instead choose to launch a coordinated attack."

"And the ending?"

"The outcome is that the gang alliance is about to be broken up by the prince."

Everyone in the bar was talking about the news.

This is an incredibly impressive achievement, but it doesn't seem so impressive when applied to the Crown Prince.

Everyone thought this was a matter of course.

And when you win, great scholars will naturally come to debate with you.

Because someone started analyzing the battle situation: "Most alliances in history haven't ended well because people's hearts are divided, and everyone is counting on the other side to help them."

"Most importantly, the Three Wolves of the Underworld were killed before the alliance was even formed. Do you think a bunch of street thugs from the Underworld could swallow this insult? I heard that the Underworld Alliance started fighting amongst themselves while they were fighting each other."

"In the underworld, no one can beat the Prince."

As the largest information dissemination base, besides official sources.

Almost everyone in the city was waiting for the news coming from the Tail Bar to accompany their drinks.

There was no information confirming that the leader of that group of fast food vendors was the Crown Prince, but everyone assumed that he was.

Nobody thought a group of stuntmen could beat a gang of underworld figures, but they did.

Everyone happily opened the wine.

Only Xiao Xu cared about what Huang Zhiyi was doing.

"Any news about Huang Zhiyi?"

"Yes, it just came through."

"What news?"

Ah Cheng put down his phone with a solemn expression and slowly said, "She arrived at the battlefield last and defeated the Crown Prince head-on."

"That means these express delivery drivers have nothing to do with distance."

Are you kidding me? No one can beat Lu Yuan, and Huang Zhiyi has no chance of beating Lu Yuan either.

Besides, didn't we agree not to do anything stupid?

Xiao Xu didn't believe it at all.

Until Acheng took out a picture and placed it in front of Xiao Xu.

In the picture, Lu Yuan is kneeling against the wall, while Huang Zhiyu is standing in front of him holding a Tang sword.

The Tang sword was stuck in Lu Yuan's body.
