Chapter 186: Knowing Oneself and the Enemy Is the Way to Survive Battles
Yun Xi opened the computer Mu Feichi had brought her and quickly set a password. Then she opened the folder of information that he had given her, which was on the desktop.
The folder contained detailed information on the four major families and all the other wealthy families and prominent families.
This was extremely high-level confidential information. Leaking any of this could have dangerous consequences.
Since Mu Feichi was willing to share it with her, it proved that he really had complete confidence in her.
In her previous life, she had been blindly in love and hadn’t interacted much with the outside world.
In this life, she wanted to become stronger. If she wanted to safeguard her future, these materials and contacts were indispensable.
Especially now, since she had discovered that Han Wanling had targeted her, she realized that she had to have a backup plan.
With her current abilities, dealing with Han Wanling was as easy as throwing an egg at a rock.
Yun Xi also realized that she was going to have to deal with Jiang Henglin in the not-so-distant future.
Knowing oneself and the enemy was the way to survive battles.
Now that she had access to the interests and inside business information of the major distinguished families, she knew that it was very likely that in the future these materials would come in handy in her times of need.
Looking through the information on her laptop, Yun Xi suddenly remembered the sneaky looks that had been on Yun Chuhan and Liang Xinyi’s faces lately.
Liang Xinyi had been punished for starting a rumor, so she was probably feeling vengeful.
Yun Ziling was always ready to sabotage Yun Xi, and her only ally left was Yun Chuhan.
Yun Chuhan had been acting very low-key since Yun Xi had arrived home. Looking at the conspiratorial looks and laughter that were passing between them at this time, it was obvious that Liang Xinyi was up to no good and she was using Yun Chuhan.
Yun Chuhan had even provided information to gangsters for money.
She had received 10,000 yuan, which was not a small sum. And, although Yun Chuhan was not doted on at home, no doubt she had some money of her own.
Yun Xi was very curious about what on earth Yun Chuhan needed such a large sum of money for.
In her previous life, Yun Chuhan had been like a dog who didn’t bark but could bite. She was also the most ambitious one in the family.
The reason why she was said to be ambitious was because the person she was in love with was none other than Mu Feichi, the head of the Mu family.
She had even gone abroad several times, using money she’d gotten from her scheming to get plastic surgery.
In the beginning, Yun Xi had thought that her sister was quiet and kind and that she’d liked to stick around her out of fondness.
In reality, she’d been nothing but Han Yaotian’s private eye. She’d stolen Yun Xi’s research results and sold them to other companies at a high price.
Since Yun Chuhan was now starting to come out of the shadows, Yun Xi felt that it was time for her to start casting her net around her.
As to when and how she would bait Yun Chuhan depended on how brazenly she acted and her mood.
Yun Chuhan lacked money, but didn’t have the guts to ask Yun Yuanfeng for any.
But Yun Xi was different. Her father couldn’t resist the urge to put her on a high pedestal now. He was willing to pamper and dote on her for fear of losing face in front of the Jiang and Chen families.
Money is a good thing, but it depends on who uses it and for what.
…
As Yun Xi was arriving at school, she saw a familiar car parked outside it.
She swept the license plate number with her eyes and felt that it seemed vaguely familiar.
She suddenly realized that that license plate belonged to the car that Han Wanling had driven to the sentry post yesterday?
She was very sensitive to numbers, especially license plate numbers.
Han Wanling was a student at Beijing University, and she wasn’t on the same grade level as them. What was she doing here?
The only reason Yun Xi could think of for Han Wanling to come to the school had to do with her, right?
She chuckled lightly. She wasn’t worried at all. She would adjust her plans accordingly.
When she arrived in class, her friend Yang Lu was waiting for her and her face looked a little worried.
“Yun Xi, I have something to tell you…”
Yun Xi sat down, feeling somewhat puzzled.
“What’s wrong?”
“Have you offended someone recently?”
Yun Xi raised her eyebrows. She’d offended quite a few people recently…
“Why do you ask?”
“A woman came up to me this morning and said she was willing to give me money to spy on you…”
Yun Xi felt her heart sink, and, narrowing her eyes, she asked, “Was it a woman with a mole at the corner of her lips?”
“Huh? How do you know?”
“She had someone kidnap me the other day, but I was lucky enough to be rescued.”
