The driver's words revealed an excitement he himself hadn't noticed, but it heightened Lan Zihua's vigilance even more.

"Why is he like this? It's truly strange."

Lan Zihua furrowed her brow, then let out a cold laugh.

"Leave the medicine, I have a spare at home, no need to rush it over. Bring it tomorrow."

With that, Lan Zihua hung up the call, not giving the driver a chance to explain. The driver was stunned, stopped the car, stared blankly at his phone, then angrily pounded the steering wheel.

"Bastard! Such a good opportunity, gone just like that!"

The driver felt unwilling inside, wanting to vent his anger, yet he realized it would be useless and only cause trouble. He also realized his earlier tone was too excited, noticed by Lan Zihua.

"This woman is too clever, deceiving her isn't easy."

The driver sighed deeply, thinking to himself, "Forget it, better head back first. I still need her trust; if she doesn't trust me, everything afterwards will be ruined."

Meanwhile, Lan Zihua found the backup medicine, feeling slightly more comfortable physically, but the driver's tone and demeanor lingered in her mind.

"Something's off, really off, this driver definitely has issues."

Lan Zihua sat up abruptly, let out a cold snort. Though she didn't know the driver's exact intentions, her instincts were sharp enough to sense danger. Thus, she sent Lin Beichen a WeChat message, asking him to send someone for protection.

"Was going to call directly, but it's so late, he's probably asleep."

Lan Zihua sighed, prepared to lie down and sleep again, when her phone suddenly rang, it was Lin Beichen calling. Lan Zihua was ecstatic, quickly picked up.

Lin Beichen chuckled on the phone: "You sent me a WeChat so late, asking me to send someone to protect you, are you in some trouble? Speak what's on your mind."

Lan Zihua then told Lin Beichen the whole story, and he also realized the seriousness of the issue.

"That driver is indeed suspicious, but let's not jump to conclusions. How about this, control him first and don't let him be involved in your affairs."

Lin Beichen suggested, however Lan Zihua chuckled. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

"Lin Beichen, I've noticed you've become timid."

Lin Beichen, perplexed, asked for reasoning. Lan Zihua replied: "Have you heard of 'The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind'? If this driver truly has a problem, there might be an organization behind him, and this organization is targeting you."

Lan Zihua's words enlightened Lin Beichen, he nodded: "You have a point, it's very likely."

But then, Lin Beichen frowned: "But thinking like this is too risky, if the driver turns on you, it'll be hard to defend. Better be cautious and let me control him first."

Lin Beichen understood Lan Zihua's unspoken intention, this woman, her courage is beyond others, worthy of her title as a female CEO in the business world. Her plan was to feign ignorance of the driver's intentions at the opportune moment, enticing the driver to approach her voluntarily. In this manner, Lan Zihua could extract the entire organization's conspiracy and plans from the driver. This was Lan Zihua's ambition, Lin Beichen felt some admiration but even more worry. He feared Lan Zihua's cleverness might backfire.

Upon hearing Lin Beichen's concerns, Lan Zihua gently shook her head, then said to Lin Beichen: "Don't underestimate me, my capability and wisdom, I believe, far surpasses ordinary reason." "I hope you can trust me, I will surely be a help to you." Faced with Lan Zihua's words, Lin Beichen initially hesitated, disagreeing with her idea. However, after a moment, Lin Beichen nodded. Since she was so resolute, he decided against being the villain and gave this girl a chance, trusting her wisdom.

Lin Beichen's lips curled into a smile, slowly said: "Since you're so confident, what more can I say? Go ahead and try, if it doesn't work, we'll make other plans." Despite his words, Lin Beichen suddenly remembered something and quickly added to Lan Zihua: "I have only one request, that is you must ensure your safety." "If you cannot guarantee your safety, I will never agree to you acting this way."

Upon hearing this, Lan Zihua's heart warmed, coupled with an indescribable sense of coziness.

She hadn't anticipated such tender concern hidden beneath Lin Beichen's seemingly cold exterior. So, Lan Zihua said to Lin Beichen: "I truly appreciate Mr. Lin Beichen's concern, don't worry, I'll take care of myself."

"I will not act recklessly."

Completing her words, Lan Zihua slightly smiled, then hung up the phone.

Lin Beichen fell into contemplation, inwardly marveling: "Indeed she is a wise lady, I should give her more opportunities, cannot let her talents and wisdom be buried."

At this moment, Lan Zihua sat poised in her chair, dialed her female secretary.

Upon answering, the secretary immediately said: "CEO, is there something you need from me?"

While listening to Lan Zihua's instructions, the secretary appeared excited yet slightly apprehensive.

Lan Zihua chuckled lightly, then said to the secretary: "I do have some instructions to relay, but you needn't worry too much, I have my reasons, just follow them."

The secretary, upon hearing, nodded promptly and eagerly asked: "Then, CEO, please go ahead, so I have some idea."

Lan Zihua continued: "I feel the driver beside me might be problematic, I need to be wary of him, but also make use of him."
