Liang He tugged at the corner of his mouth, couldn’t be bothered to speak, and turned to leave without uttering a word to her.
This was a blatant slap in the face.
Sun Qianqian watched them walk away, huffing angrily, "Ungrateful fools! As if anyone was dying to talk to you."
"Young Madam, the task you assigned me is completed. The deceased is a 25-year-old young male who drowned while trying to save a girl from jumping into the river to commit suicide. His parents died in a car accident when he was young, and he was raised by his grandmother, who has also passed away. He worked on an assembly line in a factory. His body was supposed to be sent to the crematorium this afternoon, but our people intercepted it and brought it back without anyone asking questions."
Gu Lili followed Tang Qingli to the room where the body was kept. The deceased, likely because of working daily in the factory, had very pale skin which, despite the pallor, still showed his well-defined facial features.
"Dress him in a set of clean clothes and shoes, then place his body in the back seat of my car."
Gu Lili took out a piece of paper from her bag, "Qing Li, find these items for me, no matter how expensive or rare, I really need them."
Tang Qingli agreed. She went upstairs to change her clothes and cool the car with the air conditioning, thinking about the heat. Once the bodyguard delivered the cleaned body to the backseat, she drove off.
Fortunately, her car was found without a scratch, and her phone was still there, nothing missing.
She went straight to Wangchuan Mountain.
It was getting dark when she arrived.
She made a point to call up Su Changzhi and took the opportunity to explain the situation of the deceased.
Su Changzhi was quite satisfied with the body and immediately possessed it, bringing the corpse back to life.
"Here, this is the dead man’s wallet, carried on him, containing his ID card. If you need to change the name, you must bring your household registration book to the Public Security Bureau to process it. You can handle this yourself, and this..."
Gu Lili took out a stack of cash from her bag, "Here’s twenty thousand dollars, take it and spend it for now."
He pursed his lips and accepted, "Thanks."
"No need." Gu Lili drove off, "I’m now going to drop you off at the factory where you work. Gather your things. There might be word about your death by drowning while saving someone at your workplace. Just say you were about to give out but came back to life, and that should fool them."

As the car headed to the factory, she made a point to step out and buy him a new phone with a SIM card, and they exchanged numbers. "If there’s anything, call me."
"Alright, it feels so good to be alive and free ."
"I’m worried that if you get caught by the underworld messengers, it would be terrible." Gu Lili warned, "Be careful. You’ve lived for so many years, you have your own ways to survive. Another thing, if you seek love, make sure to find someone courageous. The timid ones, you might either have to hide your secret forever or risk ending your relationship as soon as you reveal it."
"I understand. The person who can make me speak up must be someone I truly like."
She drove all the way to the destination. Su Changzhi got out of the car, smiled, and waved at her, "Drive safely."
Gu Lili nodded and turned to leave.
Not far away, her gaze suddenly caught sight of Long Yubei’s car. She stepped on the gas to catch up, following behind his car, feeling like she was tailing him.
She thought he was heading home, but he wasn’t.
