Chapter 329: Chapter 329 Shen Huan Secretly in Love with Shi Yaoguang

Shi Yaoguang was very efficient.

Ever since she had confirmed the collaboration with Su Yike, she had instructed Quan Jinbei to look for new energy sources that could replace oil.

Of course, she didn’t hold much hope that Quan Jinbei would directly find a new energy source.

What she wanted were some elements that could be used to create a new energy source.

The search for new energy was methodically arranged and set in motion.

Shi Yaoguang then assigned Su Yike a task.

After receiving the task, Su Yike was somewhat puzzled, "The Bai Family has monopolized the oil market, right? If you want to make a move against the Bai Family, why start from real estate?"

"I want to teach the Lin Family a little lesson first." Shi Yaoguang stated her intention directly.

Su Yike thought for a moment and then understood.

The Bai Family indeed had never ventured into real estate, but the Lin Family’s major industries were all in this sector.

Having him target real estate naturally would inflict significant damage on the Lin Family.

Once he understood her intentions, Su Yike immediately went back to make arrangements to target the Lin Family’s real estate projects.

With such a major incident happening at home, Lin Ruixue naturally could not be unaware.

She sought out Shi Yaoguang as soon as she learned about the matter.

"It was you who did it, right?"

Hearing her abrupt question, Shi Yaoguang feigned innocence with a baffled face, "What did I do? I don’t understand what you’re talking about."

Watching her play dumb, Lin Ruixue scoffed coldly, "You dare do it, so what’s there to be afraid of admitting?"

"Don’t think that by doing this, I will be afraid of you! I tell you, that’s impossible! I will definitely not concede!"

Looking at her defiant face, Shi Yaoguang nodded, playing along with a cooperative tone, "Then don’t concede. I’m rooting for you."

Her words of encouragement were indeed insincere.

Lin Ruixue was infuriated by her dismissive attitude.

Shi Yaoguang, however, did not take it to heart, "What are you so angry about? Don’t forget, our current relationship isn’t one where you can seek me out to cry and get comfort from as friends."

"Right now, we are enemies."

Shi Yaoguang reminded her with a smile, "Enemies. Do you understand what that means?"

"You—" Lin Ruixue glared at her indignantly, "I don’t need your reminder!"

Shi Yaoguang shrugged, "It’s best if you understand that. I’m rooting for you."

"Hmph." Lin Ruixue sneered and turned to leave.

No sooner had she left than Shen Huan showed up.

"What did Lin Ruixue say to you?"

Shi Yaoguang relayed what Lin Ruixue had come to confront her about to Shen Huan.

Shen Huan then asked, "If it wasn’t you who made a move against the Lin Family, then who targeted the Lin Family?"

"A few days ago, Su Yike came to find me, wanting to collaborate with me. I agreed," Shi Yaoguang said, then shot Shen Huan a wounded look.

"What’s that expression about?" she frowned in distaste, "You haven’t been dumped, have you?"

Shen Huan rolled his eyes, "You’re the one who got dumped!"

"If you haven’t been dumped, why the long face?" Shi Yaoguang was somewhat puzzled.

Shen Huan snorted, "What’s your relationship with that Su Yike? Why would he want to help you?"

Just as Shi Yaoguang was about to speak, he interrupted her again, "You’ve only known him for a few days, right? He had just transferred to our class when you left to go filming. How many days have you spent together? You two are that close already? Don’t you think you’re being a bit too much?"

Shi Yaoguang looked bewildered, "Too much? How so?"

"You still have the nerve to ask me how?" Shen Huan looked at her with the disdain one might reserve for a heartbreaker, "We’ve known each other for so long, and considering our ’relationship’, you need help, yet you never come to me!"

"Is the Shen Family really inferior to the Su Family? Can’t I accomplish what Su Yike can do?"

"Is it that Su Yike is too cunning, or do you think I’m not worthy?"

Facing Shen Huan’s aggressive gaze, Shi Yaoguang blinked, feeling a bit conflicted, "This isn’t really a matter of being worthy or not."

When it came to dealing with the Lin Family, Shi Yaoguang didn’t need anyone’s help to do so.

The only reason she let Su Yike strike at Lin Family’s project was to give him a sense of participation.

It’s a partnership, after all.

Of course, saying that would be like fooling a child.

In reality...

Shi Yaoguang thought that targeting the Lin Family was too troublesome.

Although there were some benefits to be had, the effort wasn’t really worth it.

Since Su Yike himself rushed forward wanting to be the hitman, she had no reason to refuse.

As for the idea that Lin Ruixue was her enemy and that one must personally handle their enemies, she didn’t have such notions.

If they were enemies, did it really matter who took action against them?

As long as the result didn’t deviate from her expectations, that was fine.

But Shen Huan was oblivious to Shi Yaoguang’s thoughts, and seeing her distracted expression, he showed a hint of grievance.

"In the end, you’re just a bitchy woman!"

Shi Yaoguang, who was randomly called a bitchy woman, looked baffled.

This...

What’s going on?

Interpreting the look in her eyes, Shen Huan snorted coldly, "You’re really too much! To think I listened to Grandpa and took you seriously—"

"Hiss—"

As soon as the words left Shen Huan’s mouth, a chorus of gasps was heard.

The scene felt strangely familiar.

Wasn’t this just like when Shi Yaoguang publicly pointed out Lin Ruixue’s anal fissure?

Thinking this, Shen Huan’s heart skipped a beat.

Then, the bad premonition came true.

"Huan, you... you actually have a secret crush..."

Mu Tiantian spoke in disbelief, "You actually have a crush on Yaoguang!"

Shen Huan didn’t hesitate to triple-deny, "I don’t, I didn’t, stop talking nonsense!"

But Mu Tiantian ignored his words, saying with self-indulgence, "You’re downcast when Yaoguang isn’t around. So that’s because you have a crush on her! Why didn’t you say so earlier? If you had spoken up, there might have been a chance for something to happen, right?"

"That’s not right, as the sponsor aiming to support Yaoguang, how could I encourage a rival to try harder?"

Mu Tiantian slapped her head in annoyance, and then turned to Shen Huan, "Don’t tell me, you deliberately tried to brainwash me?"

Shen Huan: "..."

God damn brainwashing.

Mu Tiantian continued to list seemingly incriminating actions of "Shen Huan’s secret crush on Shi Yaoguang," "I was saying, how come Huan’s attendance rate hardly hit ten percent last semester, but this semester he’s suddenly so diligent—it’s because of Yaoguang..."

As she went on and on, Shen Huan almost believed he might indeed harbor some feelings for Shi Yaoguang.

But in reality...

He, Shen Huan, had no interest in a pervert!

As a man who knew very well how outrageous Shi Yaoguang could be, Shen Huan made it clear that he harbored absolutely no inappropriate thoughts towards someone like her!

Even the schemes previously considered by his grandfather, he had dismissed them.
