Disguising as a delivery person for an assassination attempt was not unfamiliar to Jiang Yixin; she had encountered the one sent by Shen Tianze, known as Fang Ji Qiang, before.
But unlike last time, this time it wasn't Xiao Feng making the move, it was Jiang Yixin herself.
This gave her an indescribable sense of achievement, as if what she had learned finally found a place to be applied.
Of course, this matter definitely deserved attention, like who sent this guy pretending to be a delivery person?
Entering the living room, she saw Du Qingyue sitting on a high stool, with a drawing board in front, her brush dipped in paint, sketching on paper, looking utterly focused.
"Qing..." Jiang Yixin was about to call out to Du Qingyue but was stopped by Du Linlang.
The three of them walked up behind Du Qingyue together to see what she was painting.
On the canvas was a wedding dress, not only was the design unique, but the color combination was also exceptionally fitting, giving off a feeling that it could be a wedding dress or a colorful gown.
About five minutes later, the last stroke landed, Du Qingyue looked at Du Linlang and smiled, "Thank you!"
Jiang Yixin and Gao Panpan were a bit puzzled, meeting right away with a thank you, what was she thanking for?
Du Linlang, however, showed no hint of embarrassment and returned a smile, saying, "You're welcome."
After saying that, she explained, "You might not know, Qingyue has a habit, once she starts painting, she can't stop with the brush, if she stops, she can't continue anymore."
Gao Panpan and Jiang Yixin suddenly understood, showing an expression of realization.
"This is a gift I brought for you." Du Linlang placed stinky tofu and durian on the table, smiling as she said, "I have a question for you."
Du Qingyue nodded and gestured, "Let's sit and talk."
Du Linlang sat down, her gaze moving back and forth between Jiang Yixin and Du Qingyue, "Mr. Zhao Tiezhu, where is he?"
Jiang Yixin's face turned awkward, "That was a random name I left when ordering food."
Du Qingyue looked at Jiang Yixin's empty hands, "Where's the food? Hasn't it arrived?"
"It arrived, but obviously we can't eat it," Jiang Yixin said gloomily.
With that, she recounted in detail what happened at the door.
"Who sent that person?" Du Qingyue frowned slightly.
"I don't know." Jiang Yixin shook her head, "I didn't get a chance to ask before that person passed out, but we should have results soon."
At this point, Du Linlang interrupted, "I might know who sent the person."
"Oh?" Du Qingyue was intrigued, "Tell me more."
"If I told you I sent that person, would you believe it?"
"To be objective, nothing you do would surprise me, but in this case, it's clearly impossible."
"Why? You think I wouldn't dare?"
Du Qingyue smiled, "If you really did send the person, it would be targeted at me, not Yixin, and... you can feel free to send someone to try it."
"Let's skip the reverse psychology." Du Linlang chuckled knowingly, "I won't give you the chance to push me against Xiao Feng."
Gao Panpan listened to their conversation, feeling her worldview constantly refreshing. The dynamics between these two cousins were truly incomprehensible.
However, Du Qingyue was indeed beautiful, although it was a cold kind of beauty!
Thinking of this, Gao Panpan found logic in Du Linlang's lack of success, given that their personalities were practically opposites from Du Qingyue's.
One was fiery, the other icy cold; if Xiao Feng embraced both entirely, wouldn't he live in constant turmoil?
"Let's talk business; you said you know who sent the person?" Du Qingyue changed the subject, "Can you share more about it?"
"Of course." Du Linlang nodded, "I despise the act of speaking half-heartedly and leaving others to guess."
After saying that, she gave Gao Panpan a look.
"Tell everything?" Gao Panpan asked.
"Everything."
"Without holding back?"
"Yes."
Receiving clear confirmation, Gao Panpan looked at Du Qingyue, "So, in the afternoon, someone named Bai Yongge came to find Mr. Du, proposing to ally with Mr. Du..."
"Excuse me, let me interrupt," Du Qingyue asked suspiciously, "Were you listening while Bai Yongge was talking to Mr. Du?"
"Not exactly, but Bai Yongge spoke to me directly." Gao Panpan said honestly.
Du Qingyue and Jiang Yixin exchanged glances; there was clearly something off here.
Gao Panpan explained, "Mr. Du was unavailable, so I pretended to be her."
Upon hearing this, Du Linlang showed a slight frown that was barely noticeable, wondering if this girl was lacking common sense.
When I say hold nothing back, I don't mean you should say everything, do you understand?
"Specifically, what was the inconvenience?" Jiang Yixin pressed on.
Gao Panpan, focused solely on Du Linlang's instruction to hold nothing back, revealed her cross-dressing situation.
Du Qingyue and Jiang Yixin were both stunned.
After a moment, Du Qingyue laughed, "I didn't expect you to have such a hobby?"
Du Linlang kept a straight face, "There are many things you wouldn't expect."
Du Qingyue didn't press further on this topic, signaling Gao Panpan to continue.
Gao Panpan nodded and recounted Bai Yongge's proposal in detail.
"The Bai Family..." Du Qingyue mused; if it really were the Bai Family, it wouldn't be surprising. After Miao Youmin's downfall, it was only natural for the Bai Family to react.
In fact, if the Bai Family mobilized directly and rushed in with real knives and guns, Du Qingyue wasn't particularly afraid; the real fear was their plans from the shadows.
But it was clear that if the Bai Family had any sense, they wouldn't confront openly.
After a brief silence, Du Qingyue thanked, "Thank you for specially coming to tell me this."
"Don't rush with the gratitude; there's one more thing to tell you." Du Linlang smiled, "According to Bai Yongge, my second uncle has already agreed to cooperate with the Bai Family, so be mentally prepared for that."
Du Qingyue's expression changed.
Jiang Yixin reached out and patted her shoulder, hesitating but ultimately saying nothing.
"I advise you to tell Xiao Feng about this early; otherwise, if anything severe happens, there's no place to buy regret pills." Du Linlang smiled brightly.
"Shall we go out for dinner?" Jiang Yixin stood up and suggested.
Even though she didn't have much of a liking for Du Linlang, the fact that she shared such crucial information meant she couldn't show her a sour face.
"No rush for dinner." Du Linlang twirled a lock of hair around her finger and smiled, "Yixin, you surprised me today. I didn't expect you to be so skilled, truly hiding your talents."
"You're too kind, Mr. Du; I only took a few days of self-defense classes." Jiang Yixin replied perfunctorily.
"Did you learn from Xiao Feng?" Du Linlang asked, seemingly unaware that mentioning Xiao Feng in this setting, or in front of Du Qingyue, was a sensitive topic.
Jiang Yixin glanced at Du Qingyue, feeling indignant, "Yes, did he teach you?"
