Lu Qing and Lu Xing met for lunch with their grandfather, Old Sir Lu, joined by Qin Miaomiao and Mo Wenwan. The focus remained on the children, and Qin Miaomiao felt her grandfather's affection had softened. Later, Qin Miaomiao and Mo Wenwan discussed their upcoming drama collaboration, while Lu Xing and Mo Wenwan had a brief, slightly tense exchange about Qin Miaomiao.

With a stylish jacket, Su Lan entered the office, and Qin Miaomiao immediately recognized her distinctive allure. It wasn't surprising that many of the company's male staff paid her special attention.

"Alright, Mr. Mo, we shall reconnect this afternoon. Excellent, I'm anticipating our collaboration."

Mo Wenwan deliberately put on a show, seemingly engaged in a phone call, as Su Lan cautiously observed her. The mention of 'Mr. Mo' immediately caught Su Lan's attention. Recalling previous discussions with Huang Shan regarding Mo Wenwan, and now hearing 'Mr. Mo's' name, Su Lan's suspicions about Mo Wenwan intensified.

She pondered: Could that phone call Qin Miaomiao was on be with Mo Wenwan?

"Here is your revised itinerary. Please take it and review it."

Su Lan accepted the itinerary from Qin Miaomiao with a look of surprise. The act of calling her in solely for an itinerary seemed rather insignificant, leaving her more perplexed.

"The previously arranged schedule had numerous time conflicts, so I have made adjustments."

Examining the timetable, Su Lan noticed that most of the engagements were scheduled without requiring early mornings or late nights, appearing quite reasonable. However, they predominantly involved minor appearances, positioning her entirely in the background. Understanding this, she pouted slightly, expressing her dissatisfaction.

Qin Miaomiao closely observed Su Lan's reaction. Though she remained silent, she could discern Su Lan's displeasure from her pout, realizing the arrangement had not met her expectations.

"You are dismissed; I have other guests arriving."

Qin Miaomiao turned and departed, her mood shifting. Su Lan watched her retreating figure, her expression one of deep resentment. Internally, she struggled to maintain composure, yearning for the current situation to conclude swiftly.

"President Qin, I will be returning now."

Su Lan spoke through gritted teeth, her tone carrying a commanding presence, her unhappiness growing with each passing moment. Despite her inner turmoil, Su Lan managed to restrain herself, her mind a whirlwind of thoughts. She was beginning to realize that her desire to witness Qin Miaomiao's downfall, and her strategy of patient endurance, was merely a temporary phase.

"Assigning me so many minor roles, I can't help but wonder if this is a deliberate move against me."

Su Lan murmured to herself, her gaze becoming distant as she scanned the surrounding staff. Softly, she added, "Never mind, it's best to concentrate on my work."

Upon witnessing Su Lan's departure from the company, the assistant promptly made a call to Qin Miaomiao's office. "President Qin, she has just left," the assistant reported directly.

"Keep an eye on her movements. I need to know where she goes next."

Engaged in deep contemplation, Qin Miaomiao found Su Lan's every action to be remarkably conspicuous, making it virtually impossible to overlook her presence. Carefully considering various possibilities, Qin Miaomiao eventually identified several puzzling aspects of Su Lan's behavior that were becoming increasingly significant.

"Su Lan, what compelled you to join this company? Or is there someone specific you're targeting?"

Qin Miaomiao spoke to herself, her eyes reflecting a sense of astonishment. She seriously contemplated Su Lan's entry into the firm and recognized that much had changed, thoroughly weighing numerous factors before arriving at a series of new conclusions.

Seeing Huang Shan, Su Lan's immediate inquiry was whether any other individuals of significant standing were present.

"I already informed Mo Wenwan about this; what is the issue?"

"I see now."

Upon learning that Mo Wenwan had been apprised, Su Lan felt an overwhelming sense of helplessness. Deeply reflecting on the circumstances surrounding Qin Miaomiao, she voiced her concerns.

"Does Mo Wenwan possess sufficient influence to take action against Qin Miaomiao?"

"Aside from Qin Miaomiao, is she the sole individual you intend to target? I was under the impression that Lu Qing was also a consideration."
