Ye Wenjuan only then noticed the man who had emerged from the shadows, but she couldn’t make out his face clearly. "Are you talking to me?" The man nodded. "Yes." Ye Wenjuan couldn’t help but become alert. She inconspicuously stepped back, ready to flee if things turned south. "Who are you, and how do you know what I’m planning to do?" The man didn’t beat around the bush. "Why ask so many questions? If I say I can help you, I can. Just tell me, do you want my help or not?"

The corner of the man’s mouth curled into a smirk. "Naturally, it’s because I can’t stand them either." Hearing this, Ye Wenjuan relaxed her guard slightly. "Which one of them do you have a grudge against?" In truth, she asked this to test the man, to see if he was trying to trick her. The man replied, "Naturally, it’s the one whose identity you swapped with. Of course, if everyone you dislike runs into trouble, the Ye Family might even let you stay. After all, they’ve raised you for so long, don’t you think?" Ye Wenjuan’s mind raced as she pondered the man’s words. This is exactly what I want, no matter what happens, she thought. "Then what do you want me to do?" Disdain flashed in the man’s eyes. "Just stick to the original plan," he said. "The only difference is the location will change." Fearing she might back out, he added, "Don’t worry. I’ll have someone assist you secretly, and I guarantee no one will be able to trace anything back to you afterward." Ultimately, her discontent and resentment, combined with the tempting picture the man had painted, overcame her fear. "Why should I believe you?" The man handed over the small cloth bag he was carrying. "Is this enough to show my sincerity?" Ye Wenjuan stared at the cloth bag for a moment. "What is this?" Impatience flashed in the man’s eyes. "Just look inside, and you’ll know. This is a rare opportunity. Besides, you’re only responsible for passing on a message. Even if something happens, you can’t be blamed. What do you have to worry about?" I’m just supposed to pass a message to Ye Wenhui, she thought, recalling the man’s words. Even if something happens, I just have to deny any involvement. What could possibly go wrong? This will also show that coward Wu Bingjie that I can get things done without him. Having made up her mind, she reached out and took the small cloth bag. Using the faint light reflected off the snow-covered ground, she peered inside. The sight startled her. Inside was a thick stack of large-denomination bills, and her heart began to race. Before she could compose herself, the man said, "You’ve seen my sincerity. I trust you’ll be satisfied. As for the specific location, someone will notify you tomorrow." After speaking, he didn’t spare Ye Wenjuan another glance and turned to leave immediately. Ye Wenjuan watched him go, her mind now solely focused on the bag. I can’t just walk out of the dormitory openly holding this, she thought. It’ll be a disaster if someone sees it. She glanced around the courtyard. Aside from a few people fetching or dumping water, no one seemed to be paying her any attention. She quickly ran through her options in her mind. An idea struck her, and she headed towards the toilets. When she emerged from the toilets, the cloth bag was gone. Her roommates, seeing her return empty-handed, quickly looked away. She shed her thick outer coat, quickly removed her shoes, climbed onto the kang, and pulled the quilt over herself. Elsewhere, in a dilapidated room, a voice asked, "You’re back. How did it go?" The man who had approached Ye Wenjuan earlier replied, "Rest assured, no one can resist the lure of money. Have those children been sent over yet?" A lanky man beside him grinned, revealing a mouthful of large, yellow teeth. "You can count on me; it’s all taken care of. To be safe, I gave them some more drugs to make sure they don’t ruin the plan."
