Gu Xue gritted her teeth, trying to suppress the urge to lunge forward, and give this annoying little girl a good smack on the head.
"Okay, I'll do it! I just have to do it, right?!" She felt like she had just swallowed a rock by saying that.
Gu Xue really didn't like putting herself in a disadvantageous position, but this sly girl got a head start first by collecting so much information before confronting her; there was no room to fight back at all. She was extremely unwilling to be her servant, but she couldn't do anything against this girl when she held her weakness!
Li Caiyi smirked triumphantly. "I see you finally understand your position. Then, shall we talk about your first task immediately?"
She enjoyed this situation very much. Her accumulated grievances finally soothed after she played with Gu Xue. It was entertaining to see her proud mask slowly crumbling, revealing her ugly inner self.
Li Caiyi was in an excellent mood, but she also didn't forget about her objective. She continued her explanation as she put the small bag Detective Tang gave her on top of the table. "I want you to plant these in my father's office."
Gu Xue frowned slightly before reaching out her hand to check on the bag's content. Her eyes widened when she saw that, "T-this is! Why do you even want to do such things?"
"You don't have to know. From now on, you will also become my eyes and hands in this hospital. Your task is basically to observe my father. It shouldn't be too hard as you guys frequently meet, right?"
"B-but, isn't this illegal?" Gu Xue bit her lips nervously. Li Caiyi found her reaction ridiculous.
"You are already doing illegal things by dating another woman's husband. Although cheating is not prohibited, it's still punishable by law once you get found out. What kind of nonsense are you saying now?"
"That might be true, but still, the scale is just on a different level!"
"That's your problem. I don't like waiting, so I expect the result report before tomorrow. One minute late means one of your secrets will be revealed to the world, so you'd better act smart and move fast if you know what's best for you."
"Y—You are a devil!" Gu Xue's face was red with anger.
"Ah? It's your fault for provoking me first." Li Caiyi's smile slowly faded before she stared at Gu Xue with an icy gaze. "I really hope this is the last time I will see your disgusting face, but I guess we'll see each other often in the future."

Li Caiyi could finally breathe easily once Gu Xue had left the room. Up until the time she sent the angry nurse off to the door, she had to constantly put on a strong and confident front, so it was exhausting.
Only when she closed the door behind her did Li Caiyi's erratic heartbeat start to calm down. This was her first attempt to blackmail other people, so she wasn't sure how it would end at one point. Thankfully, Gu Xue was still the same woman she remembered in her previous life. Hence, it wasn't hard for Li Caiyi to predict her reaction.
At first, the experience was thrilling and refreshing, but it also gradually filled up her stress gauge bar. Li Caiyi was so tired now.
She slowly walked to the couch, intending to take a quick nap before she went home, but before she could reach it, her legs had given up on her first.
"Haha, I'm really not suited for this," Li Caiyi laughed mirthlessly before she whispered encouragingly to herself. "But you did well, Li Caiyi. I'm so proud of you."
She crouched down while hugging herself into a ball for a while. Even if she put on a tough front, what she did today was actually this close to crossing her limit.
'If it's Xiaohua, she could probably put up a better fight than that,' Li Caiyi thought as she looked at her unconscious sister, and she secretly prayed for her to wake up soon.
While she was distracted, the door behind her was opened. Li Caiyi jerked her head automatically, and her eyes immediately met with Meng Renshu's widened eyes.
He had a bouquet of flowers in his hand and froze at the entrance when he saw an unknown girl crouching in the middle of the room. The girl had her back on Meng Renshu, giving him a good view of her lustrous, long, black hair cascaded on her back. Her outfit was very eye-catching in this primarily white furnished room.
The sight gave a mysterious feeling that Meng Renshu thought he had seen a fairy.
"Brother Renshu?"
The girl's soft voice reminded him of the fairy's identity, who was crouching in front of him right now. "Xiaoyi? What are you doing there?" He asked while trudging towards her. "Do you have a stomachache or something?"
Li Caiyi shook her head and pushed herself to stand up. "No, I was just picking up something from the floor."
Meng Renshu stared at Li Caiyi's appearance from head to toe. She looked very different today, to the point he almost couldn't recognize her earlier. He knew how shy this girl was, so witnessing her voluntarily go out with this outfit caught him off guard.
She looked very mature and beautiful like this.
"Is that for Xiaohua?" Li Caiyi asked while pointing at the bouquet of flowers in his hand.
"Huh? Ah, yes," Meng Renshu replied absentmindedly with his gaze still nailed on her.
"Let me put them in the vase. Brother Renshu, you can relax here," Li Caiyi didn't wait for him to answer and grabbed the bouquet in his hand. Their skin lightly brushed against each other, and something stirred in his heart as he felt the warm sensation.
"I can do it by myself, you know?" Meng Renshu said.
"No, it's fine. I can use this opportunity to get some fresh air as well. I need that right now."
Meng Renshu thought she must have been depressed because of Li Chunhua's condition, so he quickly gave in. "I see. Then I'll wait for you here."
Li Caiyi made sure no trace of her previous action was left on top of the table before making her way out of the room.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
Gu Xue gritted her teeth, trying to suppress the urge to lunge forward, and give this annoying little girl a good smack on the head.
