After Du Shiniang left, Bai Yueru couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief. She was really afraid that Du Shiniang couldn’t withstand the blow and would leave the Sheng Family. If that happened, the only person she could rely on was gone, and who would manage the big picture for her in the future...
Seeing Bai Yueru sighing, Aunt Jie asked, "Madam, you either sigh all day or throw things. If this continues, you’ll make yourself sick from anger."
"But besides sighing, what else can I do? Watching Ye Shu marry my son right in front of my eyes, it’s just eating me up inside!"
"By the way, madam, did Young Master Achen and Du Shiniang register their marriage? If they did, that would be bigamy! We could use this to stop them from getting married!"
"This—" Bai Yueru’s face immediately filled with regret upon hearing this, "It’s all my fault. After Ye Shu disappeared that year, my son’s brain surgery caused some memory confusion. So at that time, the Old Lady found someone to overwrite Ye Shu’s part of the memory with Du Shiniang’s. Back then, the Old Lady instructed the people from the Civil Affairs Bureau to come to the house to register him and Shiniang. But I was blinded at the time and just didn’t want Du Shiniang to register with my son, thinking Ye Shu would come back... Sigh..."
"I see..." Aunt Jie couldn’t help but fall into deep thought.
Seeing Aunt Jie seemed to have an idea, Bai Yueru asked, "Do you have any way to prevent Ye Shu from marrying my son?"
"Madam, I can’t think of a good method immediately, but we could use some tactics to delay things. A strategic delay would give us enough time to come up with a countermeasure!"
"Oh? Then, what do you think we should do?" Bai Yueru never thought to do this, but since she really didn’t want Ye Shu to marry her son, she had to listen to Aunt Jie’s opinion.
"Madam, I’m just making a suggestion. If you think it won’t work or don’t want to do it, we won’t. It’s all up to you."
Bai Yueru knew Aunt Jie was being cautious in case things went wrong and someone had to take responsibility, so she said, "Go ahead and say it. If anything goes wrong, I’ll take the blame."
"Madam, right now, that Heng Kong Entertainment Group that Ye Shu is running doesn’t have enough staff. I heard they are always hiring a large number of people, so it’s normal for them not to know each other. We can take this opportunity to infiltrate..." Aunt Jie whispered a plan into Bai Yueru’s ear.
After speaking, Aunt Jie stood to the side, bowing her head, and said, "Madam, that’s all I could think of. If you think it works, just say the word, and I’ll go through fire and water for you."
Bai Yueru pondered over it for a long time and finally said, "Ah Jie, I’ll leave this matter to you then. Remember, don’t make it a big deal—just try to delay her for ten days to half a month, make Ye Shu flustered for a while, that will be enough."
"Yes, madam, I understand."
"Wait!" Bai Yueru hesitated again, "What if the person we find isn’t skilled enough, and once discovered, they expose us—then wouldn’t it be..."
"Madam, if you’re worried, I can go myself. Don’t worry; I will be very careful!"
Seeing Aunt Jie pat her chest to guarantee, Bai Yueru had no choice but to say, "Alright, thank you for your hard work, Ah Jie. You’re the person I trust the most. Without you, I really wouldn’t know what to do. I really can’t let Ye Shu marry into our Sheng Family!"
