After taking a shower, Wu Yun came out wearing a rather conservative set of pajamas and sleep pants.

She saw that Wang Dahai had already entered his room, and the door was locked tight.

She let out a slight sigh of relief and turned off the living room light.

Then she went back to the side bedroom.

She locked her room door from inside.

Thinking it over, she felt it wasn't quite right.

After hesitating for a long time, she finally unlocked the door.

She turned off the light and lay in bed, unable to fall asleep for a long time.

Suddenly in a strange environment, she had trouble sleeping.

She wondered how long she would stay at Wang Dahai's place.

Stay for one night and go back tomorrow?

But she had already packed up her things.

And that apartment lease ends at the end of this month.

Not knowing how long she had been thinking, she eventually fell asleep drowsily.

When she woke up, it was already seven o'clock the next day.

She opened her eyes and sat up in bed, taking a few seconds to realize that this wasn't her rental room.

She looked towards the door; it was closed.

While she was relieved, she also felt that she might be overly suspicious.

Wang Dahai had been helping her out from the beginning and hadn't had any other intentions.

But she had guarded against him as if he were a thief.

This made her feel a bit guilty and embarrassed.

After changing into her work clothes, she came out of the room.

She happened to run into Wang Dahai, who was brushing his teeth.

"Morning." Wang Dahai rinsed his mouth and greeted her with a smile.

"Morning."

Wu Yun responded quietly, feeling a bit embarrassed.

Wang Dahai stepped aside from the sink and said, "You don't have to go back to your rental. It's just boring living by myself, and it's a waste to have an empty room here, you might as well stay."

Suddenly bringing up this issue, Wu Yun didn't know how to respond at the moment.

"It's really not necessary."

"No problem," Wang Dahai said. "Don't worry, I am not like that neighbor of yours. I would never do something disgusting like sneaking into your room."

Listening to Wang Dahai speak so openly about such matters, Wu Yun felt like her cautious thoughts had been poked through, and she was somewhat embarrassed.

She wanted to explain that she didn't mean it that way but didn't know how to begin.

After a long while, she finally said, "Then I'll pay you rent."

"Alright, eight hundred a month."

"That's too little…"

"We'll settle on eight hundred," Wang Dahai insisted. "You'll take care of cleaning the house. If you have the time, help me wash clothes. No need to hand-wash, just throw them in the washing machine and hang them to dry."

"How about it?"

A renovated place like this costs at least fifteen hundred a month even if it's a shared rental.

Wang Dahai was essentially cutting it in half.

But Wang Dahai's tone left no room for refusal.

"Okay." She nodded, agreeing.

"I'll make breakfast and prepare a portion for you too."

Wang Dahai went into the kitchen, starting to get busy.

Wu Yun wanted to say there was no need, but Wang Dahai had already begun.

Watching Wang Dahai in a suit standing in the kitchen, Wu Yun felt a warm sensation.

By the time she had finished washing up, Wang Dahai had already boiled the noodles.

It was a very simple bowl of plain noodles sprinkled with a bit of sesame oil, rich in flavor and appetizing.

"Eat up."

Wang Dahai sat down and passed her the chopsticks.

Wu Yun took a bite and her eyes instantly lit up: "Delicious!"

"As long as you like it."

After eating the noodles, Wu Yun took the initiative to wash the dishes.

Wang Dahai checked the time and said, "You didn't bring your electric bike yesterday. I'll take you over."

She wanted to refuse but then realized that many times Wang Dahai wasn't asking for her agreement but rather just informing her.

All she had to do was follow along.

Coming down from upstairs, Wang Dahai rode on his motorcycle and took her to the rental.

She got on her electric bike and said, "Mr. Wang, thank you, I'm off to work now."

"Alright."

Wang Dahai twisted the throttle and left.

Watching Wang Dahai's retreating figure, Wu Yun's youthful heart quietly stirred.

Wang Dahai arrived at the villa area; he put the items from the safe into his bag.

He grabbed his laptop and some other items and brought them all back to his new home.

After doing all this, Wang Dahai leaned on the sofa at home and sent a message to Zhao Qian.

Several days had passed since Qin Fuhai was put in prison, and he wasn't sure what the situation was now.

"What are you up to?"

"Attending classes."

"Classes?"

Which classes are you attending?

"Yeah, I'm preparing for the civil service exam. Bought some online courses these last few days."

"At the villa?"

"Yeah."

"The villa hasn't been seized?"

"No."

"How about your aunt?"

"Don't know where she went."

Zhao Qian said, "She has already put the villa up for sale."

Wang Dahai asked, "Is the villa in her name?"

"Not sure."

Wang Dahai guessed that the villa might not be in Wang Meihua's name either.

Probably, it was registered under the name of a family member.

If it had been under both their names, for sure it would have been seized by now.

It seems that Qin Fuhai had left himself some backdoor options.

"What about Qin Xiaotian?"

"Detained."

"Has your aunt contacted you these past few days?"

"No."

"Do you have money on you?"

"Yes."

Wang Dahai said nothing further, just quietly transferred ten thousand yuan to her.

Zhao Qian: ? ? ?

"Why are you giving me money?"

"What if the villa gets sold? Where will you live? Just take this for now, if it's not enough, tell me."

Zhao Qian didn't reply for a long time. After a while, she accepted the money and said, "I'm borrowing this from you."

"Fine."

Wang Dahai didn't want to argue with her about it.

This money was Qin Fuhai's, he didn't feel any burden using it.

After the chat, Wang Dahai went to the company.

At the company, he didn't see Chen Die, nor did he see Hu Quan.

Strange indeed.

He approached the receptionist, and Zhang Yue's eyes were sparkling brightly, "What's up?"

"Where's Mr. Hu?"

"How would I know?"

"He didn't come in today?"

"Haven't seen him."

Zhang Yue whispered, "Are you free at noon?"

"I'm busy these days."

Wang Dahai had just finished speaking, but thinking about Hu Quan embezzling company funds, he said, "Let's go out for lunch at noon, my treat."

He had to talk to the young lady, give her a heads-up so she could be prepared.

Then, he went to Wu Qiangwei's office.

Wu Qiangwei asked, "What's up?"

"I've met with Hu Quan's wife."

Wang Dahai said, "His wife is transferring assets."

"Let me know once the asset transfer is done, and we'll act then."

"Oh, right."

Wang Dahai said, "I've told you about Liu Ming's girlfriend, right?"

"Yeah."

"I've talked to his girlfriend, and she plans to sue."

"I've already had the lawyer talk with her, but there's no rush, we'll wait until Hu Quan's wife has transferred the assets to act."

"Right now, with Hu Quan, one charge is embezzlement of public funds, and the other is rape."

"I've also talked to Yang Sisi; if we sue under the charge of embezzlement, Yang Sisi might also be affected."

Wu Qiangwei listened without speaking.

After a while, she finally said, "Do we have evidence of embezzlement?"
