Bai MuRan still thinks he has the fortitude to not align with YuCi. I don’t think he realizes his loving gf set YuCi up to look sick and then imprisoned her in the hospital along with YuCi’s dad giving LiangLiang free rein to keep her there. I don’t think he is smart enough to grasp just how manipulative his gf really is. He should have noted it when she so confidently claimed YuCi’s data as her own ability at the Lysen presentation. The same logic he used on YuCi applies to him. Do you really think LiangLiang was attracted to you? She leeches off the power of Gma and will step over you in a heartbeat. He is such a clueless boy.😝Chen Xi is a vampier version of Bai LiangLiang😝we don’t know how smart she is because she’s too busy using sex appeal and blackmail to get what her lover boss needs. It is not surprising that she and LiangLiang team up to try to get YuCi. Too bad they don’t have the brain power even when combined to be more than a nuisance factor. Meng was thrown all the work to ‘welcome’ her to dept 2. Then Chen Xi took all her data from dept three so she would no longer have access. Not only was her work taken but her pregnancy was announced as a part of the welcome.😝It is no wonder that YuCi wanted no partnership with this company when the others wanted to sell ChuXia. They stand for everything she most despises. Yu’s volatile temper is trying to get him into trouble and Ren is trying to calm him down to see the big picture. They now have access to all of dept two’s projects via Meng. Older projects will be ignored because they are all focused on the one they stole from dept 3. YuCi and Ren have teamed together to drive this point home to Meng. It is a bit forceful, but it is to salvage the damage and rescue themselves from under the bondage of the ‘ladies club’ at the top. They want Meng to audit every project to find the dirt on Chen Xi. This will also make her uniquely the only one knowledgeable about all their projects should either Chen Xi or Liang Liang get replaced. She is being given a monumental task, but she was also encouraged and supported. YuCi is doing a deep dive into MuRan’s finances and Rao is getting slammed from debt collectors thanks to his favorite ‘daughter’. The one he dotes on that sets him up😝 LiangLiang used this tactic to get YuCi barraged with debt collector calls. What a sweet ‘bestie’.😝 We finally get the backstory of Chen Mo. The boy who could hear with deaf mute parents. YuCi saw for herself that he helps her mother and looks out for her. He is not what she thought. They have things in common and tragedy might bond them if she can trust him. She kept him from doing something stupid when he was grieving for his lost parents. I am wondering if these were the two lost in Rao company fire because they could not hear alarms or yell for help. It was a unique perspective to consider happy family silence vs stricken and alone silence. That to the heart, silence has a sound that leaves its mark. I found it interesting that she came down in a couples outfit matching Chen Mo. It is the first time I have seen her in a light color. She is starting to see the sun again tho very slowly. The more we see of their history and current events, the easier it is to understand why her two best ‘friends’ should not be forgiven. Even when naming the company those two were sending eye messages to each other. Ever so slowly the wheels of justice are turning. I am really enjoying this story. It is an intriguing tale of good vs evil. I don’t have issue with YuCi switching roles as required to accomplish this. I see this story as character rather than plot driven. Watching these two minds at work to outmaneuver each other is a guilty pleasure I am throughly enjoying.
