My mother-in-law is remarrying and wants my family's assets as dowry. Die!

Yu Qingqiu gently hugged Li Dong with one hand: "Don't worry, darling, no matter what, I will always stand firmly by your side, and I will never let you down!"

Li Dong found such a declaration of his feelings extremely distasteful and considered it very unlucky.

They're talking as if they're the ones who will lose!

But he still managed a smile: "Baby, don't say that. We will definitely succeed. Victory will surely belong to us, and we will be the ones laughing last!"

Yu Qingqiu nodded quickly: "Darling, you're absolutely right, victory will definitely be ours!"

But in reality, Yu Qingqiu didn't think that way. Although she was a woman, she was nearly 50 years old and had more life experience than Li Dong.

She knew that until things were completely settled, no one could say for sure what the outcome would be.

Even if the assassin demands a high price and speaks with great confidence, there is still a possibility that he might encounter an unexpected situation and fail to succeed.

Under these circumstances, she felt that she and Li Dong couldn't just sit idly by.

But her little puppy was clearly not in a good mood, and she didn't know how to express her worries.

Most importantly, it allows your puppy to accept the situation calmly and without being upset in any way!

Yu Qingqiu felt quite embarrassed, but she also knew that no matter how difficult it was, she had to speak up.

"Darling!" Yu Qingqiu thought to herself, trying to find the right words. "I think we should take a two-pronged approach. On one hand, we should trust that the assassin we hired is an excellent one; on the other hand, we must be prepared for any unforeseen circumstances!"

Li Dong almost exploded when he heard those words.

However, this guy quickly calmed down. Although what Yu Qingqiu said was very ominous, it was also the truth.

Upon careful consideration, Yu Qingqiu's suggestion made a lot of sense; one must walk on two legs.

But how exactly should we walk on two legs?

"Baby, if you have any ideas, just say them and we can discuss them together." Li Dong had no ideas of his own, so he could only turn to Qingqiu for help.

Yu Qingqiu smiled slightly: "My dear, this is my idea. We'll attend the auction tomorrow as well. If we haven't received the assassin's message before the auction starts, we'll cause a scene at the auction, disrupting its proceedings and buying ourselves some time!"

Upon hearing this, Li Dong's eyes immediately lit up. This was indeed a very good idea. How come he hadn't thought of it?

Moreover, doing this has a potential benefit: it not only buys time for oneself but also puts pressure on Zhu Dongyuan, clearly telling him that if he wants to abandon me, I still have the ability to ruin what he wants.

If the auction cannot proceed smoothly, Zhu Dongyuan may have no choice but to continue seeking help from Li Dong.

His cooperation with Zhu Dongyuan may continue, and he might even take the opportunity to demand a price increase.

Thinking of this, Li Dong revealed a genuinely sly smile: "My little darling, you're practically my female Zhuge Liang! I never imagined you could come up with such a brilliant plan. We're truly a match made in heaven, invincible together!"

Yu Qingqiu was overjoyed to receive such praise from her little puppy.

"Darling, as long as it makes you happy, I'll do anything you ask. Even if it means becoming your dog, I'd be willing. After all, you're my husband now, what can't I do for you?" Yu Qingqiu flattered, completely intoxicated.

Li Dong smiled and kissed Yu Qingqiu's cheek: "Baby, I swear I will love you for the rest of my life!"

Yu Qingqiu hugged Li Dong's neck tightly: "Husband, I will love you for the rest of my life too."

Li Dong suddenly had another concern: "If we're going to cause a scene at the auction tomorrow, will the two of us be enough?"

Yu Qingqiu also thought of this problem: "I'll invite Yu He again tomorrow."

Li Dong thought for a moment and then shook his head: "Even with the three of us, we still don't have enough manpower. What I mean is, why don't we spend some money to hire some more people to help us out? Wouldn't that be more effective?"

Yu Qingqiu thought for a moment and nodded: "Honey, you always have the best ideas! We should hire some people tomorrow! That way, it won't cost us much, and we can create a large-scale operation. It will definitely be much more efficient!"

Li Dong, flattered by the praise, said, "These people can't be found just anywhere; they have to be tough characters, preferably the kind of ruthless scoundrels and scoundrels—that's the most useful!"

After listening, Yu Qingqiu was troubled: "But how are we supposed to find these people?"

Li Dong couldn't think of a better solution after much thought, and ultimately placed his hopes on Zhang Duo again.

But when he thought about how Zhang Duo had helped him find an assassin who had taken so much money and hadn't made a move on it, he hesitated again.

At this point, Yu Qingqiu suggested, "If all else fails, why don't you ask your friend for help?"

Li Dong felt he had no better option. Although he was extremely unwilling, this was the only thing he could do now.

He nodded slightly. "Baby, what you said makes sense. It seems like this is the only way for now. But Zhang Duo is greedy and will definitely try to extort money from us again!"

Yu Qingqiu seemed quite indifferent to this: "Spend the money that needs to be spent, it's fine. At such a crucial moment, let's not worry about these small gains and losses!"

Li Dong nodded: "Then I'll call Zhang Duo now."

But Yu Qingqiu stopped Li Dong again: "Honey, wait a minute!"

Li Dong picked up his phone and looked at Yu Qingqiu with a puzzled expression: "What's wrong, baby?"

Yu Qingqiu explained, "We also need to put some pressure on Zhang Duo. Don't directly tell him we want his continued help; instead, question him about why there's been no news about the assassin!"

Li Dong's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he hugged Yu Qingqiu and gave her a big kiss.

This old sow can be very useful at times; she mentioned things that I hadn't even thought of myself.

We should definitely put some pressure on Zhang Duoxian.

This way, Zhang Duo will not only stop making exorbitant demands, but will also handle things more steadily and responsibly.

That's what we did.

Seeing her little puppy so happy, Yu Qingqiu smiled with immense joy.

Moreover, she felt like the happiest woman in the world, and she was willing to do anything to make her little puppy happy.

Li Dong unlocked his phone and said, "My darling wife, I'll do as you say. Watch how easily your husband can handle that scoundrel Zhang Duo!"
