The next day, I went to Xu Zhen's house early in the morning.

We were supposed to leave together to play an escape room game.

While they were getting ready, I took the nanny, Sister Zhang, to her room.

I gave her a bank card and said, "Sister Zhang, there's a hundred thousand yuan in here. Please keep an eye on Ye Hao for me. He's not a good person, and I'm afraid he might harm Xu Zhen."

My actions startled Sister Zhang, but after knowing the reason, she became excited.

She said, "Miss Liu, I also find Mr. Ye very strange, but it's hard to talk to others about it! I tried to warn Miss Xu, but she didn't believe me at all."

"Knowing is already the best! I hope you can help me."

Sister Zhang took the card, promised me, "I'll call you if anything unusual happens!"

With her assurance, I relaxed and went to play the escape room with them.

I wasn't lying; I was skilled at escape rooms, and my relaxed demeanor during the game seemed to make Ye Hao believe I wasn't someone from a past life.

After we finished and returned home, I didn't meet Xu Zhen for several days.

I hired a private detective to investigate Ye Hao's hometown.

At that time, before he brought those people over, I had them check their marital status and investigate their hometown.

I wanted to thoroughly investigate the "family of four" who were coming later.

Thinking about how he used buying paintings to transfer Xu Zhen's property in the previous life, I had people stake out several famous copyists' homes in the city.

Only after all arrangements were made did I relax a bit.

I arranged to meet a few girlfriends other than Xu Zhen at the Victoria Restaurant for afternoon tea.

We were all elegantly dressed, adorned with brands from head to toe, carrying the latest Hermes bags.

This attracted the attention of onlookers.

Just as we were chatting and laughing, Xu Zhen and Ye Hao appeared again!

In this second life, I found it even harder to avoid them.

If it weren't for others being present, I would have left on the spot; I really didn't want to see this couple again.

"En Yun, you're having tea without inviting me!" Xu Zhen playfully joined us.

She also pulled Ye Hao to sit with us.

We women all had our own status and reputation, so when Xu Zhen said that, our expressions instantly turned sour.

One of the political figure's wives bluntly replied, "I heard you're currently sweet with your boyfriend, so we didn't want to disturb you."

They had long known about Xu Zhen and Ye Hao's situation, and two of my friends adopted an indifferent attitude.

One of my friends shared my view, feeling that Ye Hao was truly not worthy of Xu Zhen.

However, she didn't know as much as I did; I had a deep-seated grudge against them.

Xu Zhen also felt embarrassed and quickly introduced Ye Hao, "This is my boyfriend, Ye Hao. He's the owner of an international dance studio and also the president of the Dance Association."

By mentioning these two titles, she wanted to prove that Ye Hao wasn't a freeloader and had a respectable status.

But weren't these titles all given by her?

In the previous life, Xu Zhen waved her hand and invested over two million to start a dance studio for him, then used her connections to elevate him to the president of the Dance Association.

Ye Hao suddenly rose to the middle class.

Upon hearing Xu Zhen's introduction, Ye Hao quickly stood up, greeted us very gentlemanly, then brought tea and sweets to Xu Zhen.

We were all disgusted by his actions.

Only Xu Zhen looked pleased, even feeling a sense of pride.

She didn't realize she was feeding herself to the wolves.
