Su Wanran prepared a building for Sun Yao as a research institute, where he could solve all his needs from eating and drinking to daily life. The building was also equipped with a large number of state-of-the-art gene synthesis devices.
Sun Yao brought all his data and officially began his research.
While Sun Yao was engrossed in his research, Su Wanran and Lu Ming returned to the villa on the mountainside. It had been an exhausting day, filled with too many events.
First, there was the death of Su Jianxiong, then meeting Miss Tang, followed by encounters with Sang Biao and Xue Zong.
By the time they returned to the villa, Su Wanran was utterly worn out, wishing she could immediately collapse onto the bed and sleep soundly.
Jiang Mengxin had already arranged a lavish dinner. As soon as Su Wanran and Lu Ming arrived at the villa, they began their feast. The two of them didn't stand on ceremony, eating with gusto, devouring the food like a whirlwind.
After eating, they bathed and went to sleep.
That night, Su Wanran and Jiang Mengxin, the two good sisters, shared a bed.
For some reason, Su Wanran found herself inadvertently comparing herself comprehensively with Jiang Mengxin: appearance, figure, skin quality, knowledge, demeanor, and family background.
In terms of knowledge, demeanor, and family background, they were almost evenly matched; in appearance, Jiang Mengxin had a slight edge; however, in terms of figure, Su Wanran felt she completely surpassed Jiang Mengxin!
Su Wanran's curves were far more pronounced than Jiang Mengxin's! Thinking of this, Su Wanran secretly rejoiced.
In fact, the former Su Wanran would have disdained such comparisons.
She believed that there was nothing to compare between sisters, and doing so would only damage their feelings for each other.
But today, she couldn't help but secretly measure herself.
There was only one reason for this: Lu Ming!
Previously, Su Wanran had deeply disdained and disliked Lu Ming. In fact, Lu Ming's series of uncivilized actions towards her had made Su Wanran very angry.
But after today's experience, everything had changed.
Lu Ming possessed top-tier medical skills and combat prowess. He also had an arrogant and unrestrained demeanor that looked down on the world, and he was even on brotherly terms with powerful figures like Yao Gang.
Lu Ming was undoubtedly a super-boss with deeply hidden capabilities.
Furthermore, it seemed that Jiang Mengxin knew nothing about this. If Jiang Mengxin knew, she surely wouldn't be so dissatisfied with Lu Ming and complain all day.
Such an outstanding man was right beside her, yet Jiang Mengxin didn't know how to cherish him.
If you don't cherish him, someone else naturally will.
Su Wanran felt she had an opportunity!
Although it was dishonorable to secretly poach a good man from a close sister, if Lu Ming and Jiang Mengxin didn't end up together, then it wouldn't be poaching, would it?
Ahem.
Su Wanran deliberately cleared her throat and asked, "Mengxin, you seem to dislike Lu Ming quite a bit?"
Jiang Mengxin replied with a wry smile, "Dislike him? Of course, I dislike him. If it weren't for him, I would probably be married to an excellent young entrepreneur by now, leading the Jiang family to greater prosperity!"
Su Wanran then asked, "According to that, you are only with him to fulfill your grandfather's dying wish? And when the time is right, you will break off with Lu Ming?"
Yes!!!
Jiang Mengxin affirmed, "This is why I only have an engagement with him, but haven't registered our marriage."
Su Wanran's heart bloomed with joy.
She continued to ask, "An engagement without marriage alone cannot hold a man. Mengxin, aren't you afraid Lu Ming will fool around outside and be snatched away by another woman?"
Heh, is that something to be afraid of? That's a fact!
Qiao Ling and Yuan Keying in Jinling, and Ma Xiaoling in Modu, all had a close and ambiguous relationship with Lu Ming. Jiang Mengxin had long been accustomed to it.
In fact, she didn't know that her sister, Jiang Lan, was also getting quite close to Lu Ming.
Jiang Mengxin said, "I don't care what he does outside, as long as it's not too excessive. Because sooner or later, I will part ways with him, and then if he marries someone else, I won't interfere."
Upon hearing this, Su Wanran became extremely happy.
In this case, Su Wanran could first get closer to Lu Ming, engage in some sweet talk and romance. Once Lu Ming and Jiang Mengxin broke up, Su Wanran would immediately snatch Lu Ming away!
It couldn't be said that Su Wanran was snatching him. It was something Jiang Mengxin didn't want. If you take what someone else doesn't want, how can it be considered snatching?
Now, all Su Wanran needed to do was to thoroughly investigate Lu Ming's identity.
Although various clues suggested Lu Ming was a hidden big shot, it was still speculation and not definitive. If Su Wanran wanted to have Lu Ming, she had to know him inside and out!
Su Wanran was overjoyed. Inviting Jiang Mengxin to help this time was the right decision. Thank you, Jiang Mengxin, for bringing her such a good man!
The two chatted for a while longer, bid each other goodnight, and fell asleep.
The next morning, they were awakened by the sound of an urgent phone ringing.
"Who is it? So early in the morning."
Su Wanran sleepily picked up the phone and looked at it. It was Sun Yao calling.
She rubbed her eyes, answered the phone, and asked, "Mr. Sun, why are you calling so early? Is there something important you need to tell me?"
Sun Yao replied, "Yes, it's very important! I worked all night yesterday. Your Su family's equipment is truly advanced, and it has solved many of my problems. I've now made new progress in creating the perfect 'Water Ripple Cherry.' However, I need a piece of high-quality land to test my hypothesis. Can you help me arrange it as soon as possible?"
A piece of land, that's no problem.
Su Wanran said, "Although our city is mountainous with very little arable land, our Su family has always been a major landowner and has a lot of land. Currently, all the land is managed by Grandma. After breakfast, I'll go see Grandma and get you the best quality land for research!"
"Okay, I'll await your good news." With that, Sun Yao hung up.
Su Wanran didn't go back to sleep. She got up, washed her face and brushed her teeth, and after a hasty breakfast, she was about to leave. As soon as she stepped outside, she saw Lu Ming watching the sunrise in the courtyard.
Jiang Mengxin was still sleeping. Lu Ming was alone, presenting a good opportunity.
Su Wanran calmly grabbed the hem of Lu Ming's clothes and said with a smile, "Lu Ming, I'm going to the main house to see Grandma. Come with me."
Lu Ming was stunned for a moment. "You're going to see Grandma, what do I need to do there?"
Su Wanran casually fabricated a reason: "Su Feiyang and Han Yun might also be there. You need to protect my safety."
Just like that, Su Wanran easily "tricked" Lu Ming into the car.
Often, opportunities are created.
Since Su Wanran intended to poach him, she had to create opportunities for herself. Spending more time alone with Lu Ming would spark more romantic feelings.
The car drove on, and the sun rose high in the sky.
Su Wanran and Lu Ming sat side by side in the back seat.
She gazed at the rapidly passing scenery outside the window, a smile on her face, and murmured, "Mengxin, don't blame your sister for being unscrupulous. Some things you don't know how to cherish, and others will naturally cherish them for you."
