Chapter 1051: Chapter 1051
Whenever Kang Jie thought about how she would become Yamaguchi Naoya’s wife and accompany him until she was old, she could not help but laugh out in happiness.
She thought that it would be beautiful, but reality was quite cruel.
When she arrived at the Green Gang, she was actually told that Zhou Yunbo had gone out for some matters and was not in the Green Gang. He would only be back after some time. Fortunately, Chen Meng’er was quite tactful and did not chase her out. Instead, she was kept in the Green Gang. Staying in the Green Gang was considered a small step in the right direction.
Then, she planned to infiltrate the Green Gang and isolate Chen Meng’er.
However, after staying in the Green Gang, she realized that there was a certain level of difficulty in implementing this plan,
the members of the Green Gang were very polite to her. They would call her “Miss Kang”whenever they met. However, this kind of politeness was not what she wanted. She wanted to infiltrate the inner circle of the Green Gang. She wanted the members of the Green Gang to acknowledge her and treat her as one of their own. However, the members of the Green Gang were only cordial to her.
“No, I have to think of a way as soon as possible. I can’t just sit here and do nothing.” Kang Jie finally could not sit still anymore. She still wanted to finish what she was doing as soon as possible and go and have a sweet time with Yamaguchi Naoya.
The anxious Kang Jie was running around in her room.
On the other side, in Chen Meng’er’s study, Su Jin was no longer as calm as before, she said anxiously to Chen Meng’er, “Little Miss, Kang Jie has been staying here for a few days. Why hasn’t she made a move yet? Could it be that she has already made a move and our people haven’t discovered it?” Thinking of this, Su Jin was even more unsettled. “This won’t do. I have to go and investigate properly.”
Saying this, Su Jin was about to walk out. Chen Meng’er didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
“Su Jin, calm down. Sit here.” Chen Meng’er called out to Su Jin who was about to leave.
Su Jin had already stood up. Hearing Chen Meng’er’s words, she had no choice but to sit down again. She said unwillingly, “Little Miss.”
Chen Meng’er waved her hand at Su Jin, indicating for her to calm down. “Su Jin, don’t you trust us? Or do you think too highly of Kang Jie? Let me tell you, if you’re anxious here, Kang Jie might be even more anxious than you are. Many times, what’s at stake is the state of mind. If the state of mind is good, everything will not be a problem. Watch carefully. Within these two days, Kang Jie will make a move,” Chen Meng’er said. She turned to ask Zhou Yunjie, who had been silent the entire time, “Yunjie, what do you think?”
“I agree with Little Miss’s words. In these two days, I will personally watch Kang Jie to prevent anything from happening.” Out of the three of them, the one who wanted to deal with Kang Jie the most was not Chen Meng’er, nor was it Su Jin, it was Zhou Yunjie. Zhou Yunjie hated this woman who dared toy with his little brother. He wished that she would disappear from this world.

Today was a rare free day. After Chen Meng’er finished the work on hand, she had a rare chance to rest. They drank afternoon tea.
Chen Meng’er did not go to the front to sit with Elder Liu and Elder Qu. Instead, she took a tea set and a medical book and sat on the stone bench in her small courtyard. She drank tea and read books. It was very satisfying.
However, her tranquility was quickly broken.
“Oh, how rare. You actually have the free time to read and drink tea here.”
Chen Meng’er heard the voice and put down the book in her hand. She raised her head and looked at Kang Jie who was slowly walking over. She smiled and said, “Yes, it’s rare for me to have the leisure to read while I’m busy.”
“You do have the leisure to drink tea and read books here. It’s hard on Yunbo. He doesn’t care about his own safety outside and helps you accomplish your goals,” Kang Jie looked at Chen Meng’er and said with an unconvinced expression.
After hearing Kang Jie’s words, the smile on Chen Meng’er’s face became even wider. She saw that Kang Jie had not made any moves recently and thought that she had misjudged her. She was able to charm Zhou Yunbo because she had some real ability.
However, she still overestimated Kang Jie.
“Are you trying to defend Yunbo against injustice?” Chen Meng’er asked with a smile.
“I’m Yunbo’s girlfriend. If you don’t feel sorry for him, then only I will feel sorry for him.” Kang Jie implied that Chen Meng’er was bullying Zhou Yunbo.
“Does Yunbo also think so?” Chen Meng’er smiled and continued to ask.
“Yunbo doesn’t dare tell you guys. He has complained to me several times. You guys are too much. You guys are living such a comfortable and carefree life, yet you let Yunbo work hard for you outside and help you accomplish your goals.”
Chen Meng’er finally knew that Kang Jie was trying to drive a wedge between her and Zhou Yunbo.
“Sigh, Yunbo is really something. Why didn’t he tell me what he was unhappy about? If he doesn’t tell me, how would I know what he was thinking? Besides, he was originally a member of the Green Gang. He was my personal guard. It’s only natural for him to fight for me. What right does he have to complain?” Chen Meng’er glanced at Su Jin from the corner of her eyes, Zhou Yunjie’s arrival made her say this on purpose.
Tears appeared in Kang Jie’s eyes for a second. Her hands trembled. She pointed at Chen Meng’er and said, “How can you say that? Although Yunbo was brought back from the orphanage by you guys, he has done so much for the Green Gang. It’s enough to repay the favor of bringing him back from the orphanage. Every time, you always give him such dangerous missions. Do you know that last time, he almost lost his life because of the mission you gave him?” As she said that, the tears in Kang Jie’s eyes flowed out and fell to the ground one by one.
Chen Meng’er did not expect that Kang Jie to be such a good actor. When Chen Meng’er saw Kang Jie’s tears, she couldn’t help but clap her hands and cheer.
“Su Jin, Yunjie, I really feel bad for you guys. You guys have sacrificed so much for her and for the Green Gang, but she doesn’t appreciate it at all. Look, while you guys are running around tiredly outside, she is leisurely drinking afternoon tea here.” Kang Jie flashed her tear-filled eyes at Zhou Yunjie and Su Jin, who just happened to appear. “Yunjie, you are Yunbo’s brother. Yunbo is out there risking his life for her, but she…”
