Qiaoqiao had just left that part unsaid, so the Wang Family's daughter was his only remaining biological child. He should count his blessings.

The young heiresses came out of Fu Qingshu's bedroom. Perhaps it was just an illusion, but they somehow seemed much more docile than before.

The daughters of the Wang, Li, Sun, and Liu families still had not digested what they had heard Fu Qingshu say upstairs.

Fu Qingshu said she had fallen for the young man who had tried to save someone yesterday, but there had been too many people around for her to make it too obvious. That was why her attitude had been so bad.

They asked, "Qingshu, if you like him, why didn't you say so? Now this whole thing is so hard to deal with."

Fu Qingshu added, "That's why I need you. And don't tell anyone I like him. I also want you to help me find out what he likes. I hope you can help me."

The young heiresses had a very deep impression of that man too, so they immediately agreed when they heard Fu Qingshu say that.

"Then what can we do to help you learn Gu Yubai's preferences?"

Fu Qingshu patiently guided them along. First, she used the favor her eldest sister had done them yesterday by having someone save a life, giving them a little brainwashing and exploiting their roles in the plot as people who spoke well of Gu Yubai. That made whatever she wanted to say now much easier.

"I heard he has a studio. If you arrange for a few people to get jobs there undercover and tell me what happens every day and what work he does, won't I be able to learn what he likes?"

"Besides, he usually goes back to work at the Gu Group too. Do you have any way to get inside the Gu Group and check on him?"

At that point, Li Jiajia, the Li Family's daughter, suddenly said, "Yes, but wouldn't that cost too much? And wouldn't it be bad if we were caught?"

Fu Qingshu immediately said, "Aren't you curious about this man? Besides, if you won't even help me with such a simple little request, what kind of friends are you? I'm so disappointed. If my eldest brother didn't have a feud with the Gu Family, making it inconvenient for me to act myself, I wouldn't be asking you to do this for me."

The young heiresses actually believed her.

And they agreed, too.

For some reason they could not explain, they simply wanted to bring up this man in front of Fu Qingshu and felt he was a very good person.

Besides, he was such a handsome man, and the girls were still young, so they had some affection for him too.

Naturally, they were willing to take the initiative to ask around about someone they liked.

Just like that, Fu Qingshu gained free spies without spending a penny. From now on, the four heiresses would report the male lead's every move to her. She had gone from being passive to taking the initiative, all thanks to the plot, which had turned them into her tools.

The plot could actually control characters. If she could find the patterns behind it, she could use the plot to control some less important characters and put them to work for her.

Once all the Fu Family's guests had left.

Su Wanqiao's expression darkened, and she dragged Fu Huaiyan back to the bedroom for a full tribunal.

Today, she was going to ask him just what was going on. Things she had only thought about in her head had come straight out of his mouth the very next second, as though he could read minds.

When she had heard him expose how Mr. Sun had put a green hat on Mr. Wang earlier, she had nearly been scared to death. The man had spoken so bluntly that it was far too obvious. There was no way it was a coincidence. Now she was one hundred percent certain he could guess what she was thinking.

She dragged Fu Huaiyan to the bedroom because Fu Siyao was there. She was too embarrassed to bring this up in front of Fu Siyao, afraid she would find the question strange.

Fu Huaiyan and Su Wanqiao entered the bedroom, while Fu Siyao made faces at them from behind, smiling.

Once they were inside, Su Wanqiao immediately asked.

"Fu Huaiyan, tell me the truth. Can you tell what I'm thinking? You immediately said what I was just thinking, and everything you said was exactly the same, without even any change in its nature. No matter how I think about it, I can't make sense of that."

Seeing Su Wanqiao ask so directly, Fu Huaiyan admitted it just as straightforwardly. His wife would find out sooner or later anyway, so he might as well be honest now.

"Yes. Actually, I can see what you're thinking. Whenever you think, a line of text appears above your head, like a dialogue box, clearly recording your inner thoughts."

!!!

Su Wanqiao's beautiful eyes instantly widened as she stared at Fu Huaiyan in disbelief.

Just hearing him describe it was enough for her to picture the scene. And seriously, this was social death.

Didn't that mean Fu Huaiyan had heard so many of the things she had thought about, such as a lot of crucial plot information and events involving the male and female leads? She seemed to have thought through every character's tragic ending at least once.

Could Fu Huaiyan have heard all of that?

No wonder the Fu Family's recent course had avoided the plot, and nothing bad had happened.

She should have thought of this long ago. They had all learned about the plot in advance from her inner thoughts.

Su Wanqiao immediately thought of another question. "Then when did you start hearing my inner thoughts?"

"About a month or so ago."

"..."

It's over. This time, it's completely over. I don't even know how many times I've roasted the Fu Family in my thoughts.

Had he actually heard all of it?

And I even mentioned his early death in front of Fu Huaiyan, and talked about divorcing him and leaving the Fu Family with a huge sum of money.

Ah.

What a damn sneaky bastard!

Su Wanqiao was truly dying of embarrassment. Just thinking about how any risqué scene that crossed her mind would lead to a public execution made her want to find a crack in the ground and crawl into it.
