And she guessed, with Gu Jiangnian as a towering figure, Jiang Lin wouldn't dare make any significant moves in front of her for the time being.
That day, Gu Jiangnian left in a hurry.
Without giving Yu Se detailed instructions, that moment of inattention allowed Jiang Muwan to take her chance.

After he left, she began to work on Yu Se instead.
Playing cute, acting pitiful, and deceiving—all tactics were used in her arsenal.
For instance, when Yu Se brought her a portion of strawberries, she took two serious bites and then sighed, "I miss the peaches in the forests of Gu Mansion."
