Young Master Fei was flustered.

The protagonist of this book is Ye Chen, and everyone else can be dispensable, but Ye Chen cannot.

The first thing he did was call to ask about the situation, subtly inquiring with his contacts in the police station.

He had originally planned to get someone out, but he discovered it seemed impossible.

He had thought for a moment.

Even though he was an heir to one of the Four Great Families, his own foundation was still too shallow, and he didn't know many high-level people.

But it was strange, it shouldn't have been such a big deal, right?

Could it be that he had to use his father's connections?

Although his father was far away in South America, it seemed inappropriate to bother him for just a few days of detention.

However, in urgent situations, one had to act.

Just as Young Master Fei was overthinking things, the other party added that someone had already tried to get Ye Chen out.

Someone had tried?

Wouldn't that be a happy ending?

The result was that the other party said Ye Chen's attitude was too arrogant, and he was detained again. The director was under pressure and decided to hold him for at least a week.

Now, no one could help!

"..."

It had to be said, it really was like this.

He didn't know who had helped, but Ye Chen had only just arrived in Nancheng and hadn't had time to build connections. His own people were limited to Jiu Yun, and logically, he shouldn't have enough influence to sway the upper echelons of the police.

However, it didn't matter anymore.

The director was known far and wide for his gentle temper. He didn't know what Ye Chen had done to enrage him.

But if he was angry, Ye Chen wouldn't be able to get out anytime soon.

Only being held for a week meant that the person who helped Ye Chen had good connections.

Fine.

His plan to have Ye Chen return to his post and continue the plot was in ruins. Young Master Fei had no choice but to start considering other methods.

He couldn't rely on the protagonist for the plot points in these books.

Recalling carefully, there wasn't much plot in the upcoming period.

Let's not discuss the things not explicitly written in the book for now.

First, regarding Gu Xiyue, who would expose the contract fraud at her company?

If Ye Chen wasn't there, he couldn't just leave it be and let Gu Corporation go bankrupt, could he?

But he couldn't go himself directly, could he?

If he gained favor for himself, how would Ye Chen earn favor later?

Difficult.

However...

Speaking of which, exposing this fraudulent trap didn't seem troublesome.

Gu Xiyue had simply failed to notice the danger because she was too close to the situation.

As long as he gave her a little hint, a little warning, she should be able to discover it.

In the original book, she wasn't stupid either. A young female CEO of a major corporation couldn't lack some ability, right? Young Master Fei didn't believe it himself.

Thinking about it this way, it seemed surprisingly simple.

An email would be enough.

But could he only send it himself?

Also, Chen Xiaoxiao's eye condition should be getting worse, right?

Was it in the last few days? He couldn't quite remember.

But no matter what, this part of the plot was time-sensitive and couldn't be delayed!

The sooner, the better.

If she waited for Ye Chen to get out, she might go completely blind and never see again.

It seemed like he had no other choice...

After pondering and analyzing for a long time, unable to think of any other solution, he could only make up his mind.

If Ye Chen wasn't there, he would take on his tasks himself.

It was his mission, after all. When pursuing the female lead, as long as he controlled the intensity and adhered to the three-no principle, it should be fine.

No appearance, no publicity, and no excessive effort.

Don't show your face. That means don't let the female leads know you exist, and let them think all of this is Ye Chen's doing.

Don't make a fuss. That means don't let others know about your work; work quietly.

Don't try too hard. That means don't overstep your bounds or do extra work while helping Ye Chen through the plot. You need to strictly control every step of the plot production.

You just need to leave Ye Chen's name behind afterward.

Anyway, Ye Chen will gladly accept the female leads' favor that comes out of nowhere.

After all, the original book is of that brainless type.

And based on his interactions, Ye Chen is that kind of person.

Although Ye Chen's main objective now is to unite the Four Great Families of Nancheng, and then unify Nanguo's business world.

He's also a player, and when it comes to beautiful women, he basically never refuses anyone.

The book shows that he readily accepts spies sent by his opponents to use honey traps.

After all, only beautiful women can help him succeed.

As for those who aren't beautiful, well, sorry...

So even if the female leads act a little strange, he probably won't think much of it. Confident in his charm, he'll just think they're throwing themselves at him.

And since the deeds were done under his name, the female leads will only direct their gratitude toward him.

The effect achieved should be no different from the original book.

Yeah, that makes perfect sense.

It seems I'll have to do this myself.

I never thought I, Fei Yangyao, would end up playing matchmaker one day.

A villain has to worry about the protagonist's affairs.

Honestly, is there double pay for this?

After finishing his analysis, he snapped back to reality and was about to open his laptop to write an email when he noticed the little maid beside him, with A Jiu who had somehow squeezed in, both looking at the phone his subordinate had.

They were squeezed in next to him, one on each side.

One side was a landscape of rolling hills, contrasting with the vast, flat plains on the other.

The three of them were squeezed into a "chuan" shape.

Adding to that was the faint scent of laundry detergent and a sour, milky fragrance...

Sour? Hmm, A Jiu needs to take a bath. After she washes, she should smell milky.

Wait, what am I thinking? Is this something a villain should be thinking about?

Forgive me, forgive me.

Shaking his head to dispel the inappropriate thoughts, Young Master Fei was just about to say something when he noticed...

"What are you guys doing?"

Only then did he realize he'd been so engrossed in his analysis and "analysis" that he hadn't turned off his phone, and A Jiu had seen Ye Chen's embarrassing moment in its entirety.

It's over. Ye Chen's perfect image is ruined in her eyes.

Eh? What does that have to do with me?

Young Master Fei quickly deduced that, somehow, he couldn't be blamed no matter what. He seemed completely unrelated to this matter.

"Is... is that Young Master? He abandoned A Jiu just to poop on the street? We could have done it at home." She looked wronged, on the verge of tears.

Young Master Fei thought about it. He still needed to save Ye Chen's image.

He wasn't afraid of Ye Chen's image collapsing; he was afraid of the butterfly effect interfering with him.

According to the book, A Jiu was loyal to Ye Chen until the story was abandoned.

If she knew her Young Master pooped anywhere...

Surely no one would have high loyalty to someone who poops anywhere?

For the sake of his control over the plot, he had to help a little.

"No, A Jiu, you've misunderstood. This is an actor I hired, specifically to perform such shameful acts and post them online to smear your Young Master."

"Really? He's not Young Master?" A hint of doubt flashed in A Jiu's eyes.

"He's really not!" Young Master Fei quickly nodded.

Hearing this, A Jiu visibly relaxed, a look of relief on her face.

It seemed she hadn't heard the content of his call with the police.

"But why would he act like that?"

Young Master Fei paused for a moment, then replied, "Because we have a conflict, so I want to get revenge on him."

A Jiu was silent for a moment after hearing this, then looked at Young Master Fei seriously and said, "I'm sorry. Although I don't know what Young Master did wrong, and I can't apologize for him, I still hope you feel a little better."

After speaking, A Jiu solemnly bowed three times to Young Master Fei, her movements as standard as a palace maid in a Qing Dynasty drama.

"No, do you know what happened?"

Why are you automatically assuming your Young Master is in the wrong? What's with that serious face?

"One kowtow!" she said, giving herself a voice.

And isn't that apology etiquette a little off?

"Stop the kowtowing, stop the kowtowing, I forgive him."
