“This tea needs to be sipped slowly, bit by bit.

You all just gulped it down—how is that okay?”

Cheng Daqi could only offer a bitter smile.

He had wanted his two friends to experience the art of Gongfu tea, but now it seemed his good intentions had backfired.

“So, I think I get what you mean, but let’s skip the tea talk for now.

I want to know, how did he end up pointing a gun at your head?”

The black-haired rich woman’s question also piqued Lisa’s interest; she was curious too.

As the character with the least screen time, the Joker, she hoped to take a peek at the other characters’ scripts.

“It was roughly when he came looking for me, I read Gru’s wariness about this matter in his words and realized it was an opportunity, so…

I told him I had revealed the truth to my girlfriend, which is you.

Mi’er, you have helped me so much during this time, I wanted to give you a gift.

And then, well, I screwed it up,”

Cheng Daqi’s words were muddled, and Lisa confessed she couldn’t understand.

“He’s wary of his kidnapping plot being exposed?

You told me too, right?

Does that mean I’m in danger?

You say you told ‘my girlfriend’, referring to Mi’er, but she doesn’t know you called her your girlfriend, does she?”

Lisa, now renamed to ‘A Million Whys’, bombarded him with questions, which Cheng Daqi could only answer helplessly.

“There is a lot of logic behind it; it’s kind of like this…”

Once Cheng Daqi had thoroughly explained the sequence of events, the blonde babe finally understood how many layers this building had.

Cheng Daqi saw through Gru’s weaknesses via his actions, the fifth layer.

Gru, as the mastermind, won the whole game, but let slip a minor flaw, the fourth layer.

Temir, with Cheng Daqi’s guidance, came to realize what he had missed, the third layer.

Thor is purely a mace with high Combat Power but hard to control without Gru’s micro-management, the first layer.

Regrettably, the blonde babe sadly found out that she may just be destined to only ever see the first layer clearly in her life.

She seemed like a female mace.

“Do we still have a chance to use Gru’s leverage against him?” Lisa asked.

She was clever, but her wits didn’t seem quite cut out for a world of conspiracies and schemes.

The black-haired rich woman shook her head; she didn’t believe a missed opportunity could be remedied.

Besides, her focus was different from Lisa’s.

Temir breathed out softly, her fragrance like orchids, as she moved closer to Cheng Daqi’s body and asked beside him.

“Cheng, then tell me, are we actually lovers or not?”

Being asked by a stunning beauty nearly six feet tall if you’re her lover.

This kind of question really tests an official’s mettle!

“Mi’er, you’ve helped me so much, I will definitely take Gru down for you,”

Cheng Daqi sat up straight, his tone serious and resolute.

He spoke the truth, but he was also changing the subject.

“What do I care what he does?

You know what I want, Cheng.”

Temir gave Cheng Daqi a wistful glance, her reply tinged with a sentiment of disappointment.

Such ability, if only used righteously, what a pity.

“Let me give him a call then; there’s room for discussion in this matter, especially since Thor, that idiot, went berserk.”

Lisa and Temir looked at him in surprise, not understanding why Cheng Daqi had to take such a risk.

“Cheng, there’s no need; that man is far too dangerous, and so are his henchmen.”

Temir’s concerns were echoed by Lisa, with the blonde nodding in agreement.

“Mi’er, we’re already in the game now.

That idiot Thor has forced us into opposition with him, and he’s not someone who’s going to roll over.

Better to cooperate than to stand against each other; cautious cooperation is safer than mutual suspicion, understand?”

Cheng Daqi’s words were clear enough, and of course, Temir understood.

“So what are you going to say when you call?” Lisa asked.

“Invite him to join my house moving party, have a good talk with him.

That cop may be terrifying, but we’ve got his Achilles heel; he can only deal with us within certain rules now.

Plus, I really do want to help you, Mi’er.”

Cheng Daqi closed his eyes, ready for a small skirmish with Gru before their formal confrontation.

Looking at Cheng Daqi’s resolute profile.

For the first time, the black-haired rich woman realized he really was quite manly.
