Zhou Ju thought of many ways to persuade Lin Jiayan but in the end she felt that none of them were appropriate. She thought that she could not outsmart this man by playing tricks, so it would be better to get straight to the point and talk about cooperation openly.

Although Zhou Ju had only met Lin Jiayan once through Jun Li, she could feel from that one time that this man seemed to be able to see through everything. If she tried to deceive him, the negotiation would probably break down on the spot.

Zhou Ju hesitated for a while and gently knocked on Lin Jiayan's door. Lin Jiayan's clothes were not put on properly, and the faintly visible chest muscles and collarbone and the shocking kiss marks on them made Zhou Ju's mind confused.

The bed sheet in that room clearly showed that someone had done intense sex on it. Zhou Ju knew that Mo Jinan and Lin Jiayan were already married, so Lin Jiayan could only have been with Mo Jinan...

But...but their ID cards...

A lazy young master who only knows how to eat, drink, gamble and have sex should look down on his adopted son. If the task had to be completed without being OOC, even if the two of them were married, they would not take the risk of having sex under the curse...

Unless... there is a big problem with the identity of this young master Mo Jinan... at least it is impossible that he has no desire for the inheritance as he seems to do.

He can take the initiative to find Lin Jiayan and even go to bed with him without any ooc, which means that Mo Jinan is also concerned about the inheritance!

And judging from the intensity of the two people's sex and the relationship they already had, Lin Jiayan would definitely help Mo Jinan...

How can I convince him to cooperate with me to overthrow Jun Li!

Lin Jiayan followed Zhou Ju's line of sight and then chuckled with an ambiguous meaning, which gave Zhou Ju goosebumps instantly.

"Miss San suddenly visited me... let me guess... she wanted to discuss cooperation with me, right?"

Zhou Ju didn't expect Lin Jiayan to be so direct. She was stunned for two seconds and then said directly: "Yes."

"come in."

Lin Jiayan slightly turned sideways and put on his clothes slowly. His sharp and deep eyes followed Zhou Ju's gaze and looked at the messy bed sheets.

"Third Miss."

Lin Jiayan turned his head slightly, his face gloomy and a strong and cold smile: "What are you thinking about?"

"You're interested in the bed in my room? You stared at it so intently when you came in."

Lin Jiayan's eerie voice made Zhou Ju swallow and couldn't help but step back. He looked at Zhou Ju for a long time and said meaningfully: "It's better not to know what you shouldn't know."

"No matter who I have reached a cooperative relationship with, it has nothing to do with you. Those are just the rewards for the transaction. Do you want to interfere with such a transaction, Miss?"

"If you come to me to discuss cooperation, then just do it the same way as if someone else were to discuss cooperation with me. We can discuss our own matters without any conflict, so Miss San doesn't have to spend so much time trying to figure out my relationship with others."

Lin Jiayan blatantly warned Zhou Ju not to try to speculate what kind of agreement he and Mo Jinan had reached. Zhou Ju was silent for a moment and just whispered: "How do I know if the agreement you two reached is a threat to me?"

Lin Jiayan didn't answer her question but just laughed: "Your purpose of coming here is to win me over and kill Jun Li, who has the greatest competitiveness, right?"

"Yes."

Zhou Ju knew that he couldn't hide it from him, so he just admitted it directly.

"So... what is Miss Zhou's bargaining chip for cooperating with me? I never let anyone take advantage of me for nothing."

Lin Jiayan leaned forward slightly, and the unfathomable smile on his face made Zhou Ju feel that he did not come here to discuss cooperation, but rather like a prey that came to him on its own initiative.

"Help me get the inheritance... Even if I can't get it, I can't let Jun Li, that second-generation rich kid, get it! Just tell me what you want in return!"

Zhou Ju plucked up the courage to look into Lin Jiayan's eyes that could almost see through her. She suddenly realized that this man's aura was much stronger than she had imagined. In front of him, Zhou Ju really felt a sense of fear.

"Let me tell you about the reward? Are you serious, Ms. Zhou?"

Lin Jiayan seemed very satisfied with this answer. He finally stood up straight and smiled. His amber pupils stared at her for a long time and finally looked away.

The sudden disappearance of the oppressive feeling made Zhou Ju barely breathe a sigh of relief.

"I don't really want anything. I won't get the inheritance rights anyway, so I have no interest in the family property."

"But my task is a little difficult to complete... Miss Zhou, why don't you help me complete the task after it's done?"

Zhou Ju was stunned for two seconds and didn't expect the bargaining chip to be so simple. But to be honest, asking Lin Jiayan to cooperate with her to deal with Jun Li was equivalent to Lin Jiayan helping her complete the task. She should agree both morally and logically.

"What is your mission?"

After Zhou Ju asked this question, he realized how stupid he was. How could Lin Jiayan tell him such an obviously OOC question that exposed the task?

Sure enough, Lin Jiayan was silent for a moment and just replied: "I will find you when I need you, but not just you."

Lin Jiayan turned around and looked at her: "You and your sister help me complete my task."

Zhou Ju immediately became alert when she heard this, but Lin Jiayan did not give her the chance to refuse: "If Miss Zhou can't do it, then our talks today are over. Miss Zhou, please go back."

"you!"

Zhou Ju bit her lower lip and glared at Lin Jiayan. How could she possibly go back? Her mission was to reach a cooperative relationship with Lin Jiayan, and her mission would be ruined if Lin Jiayan refused!

Zhou Ju realized that she had no chance to negotiate with Lin Jiayan. Although he was an adopted son without any say, Zhou Ju felt that he was the one who was truly in control of everything...

Zhou Ju finally put down her clenched fists. She exhaled a breath of foul air and nodded tiredly, "I will discuss this with Luo Zhi, but if you dare to do anything bad to us..."

"If it's not good for you, why would I say anything more? Wouldn't it be more convenient to just kill you the moment you come to my door?"

Lin Jiayan said that killing someone was as easy as killing a chicken. Zhou Ju instantly felt a chill down her spine. She twitched her lips and finally nodded: "I hope you keep your word."

"You too, Miss Zhou."

"Otherwise, I'd be really troubled if I help you take down Jun Li and you just walk away. I don't like hitting girls."

Lin Jiayan looked at her with a gentle expression, but the words in her mouth were frightening: "So let's cooperate with each other, okay? We all come here with a purpose, and we each get what we need and try to maximize the benefits. Isn't that what we should do?"

"Um…"

Zhou Ju no longer wanted to stay with Lin Jiayan. She only felt depressed and had difficulty breathing.

"How are you going to deal with Jun Li?"

Zhou Ju felt that since Lin Jiayan and Jun Li had such a good relationship, he would not go too far. She was even afraid that Lin Jiayan would turn against her and help Jun Li to get herself into trouble.

"Don't you just want Jun Li to get the inheritance right?"

Lin Jiayan laughed and said word by word: "In order to make you feel completely at ease... I will use some necessary means to make sure that he will never have the right of inheritance in this life."

"you…"

"As for who gets the inheritance in the end, that's none of my business. I'm just helping you prevent Jun Li from getting it. It has nothing to do with me whether you or Jin An gets the inheritance in the end."

"My only responsibility is to prevent Jun Li from getting the inheritance rights. No matter what means I use, as long as he can't get it, that's enough, isn't it?"

Zhou Ju sighed silently and said softly: "Yes."
