So after failing to find Wen Rou, Duan Hongye set her sights on Lu Pingping. Although Yan Fei and Lu Pingping were no longer a couple, they still had a close relationship where they could rely on each other with their lives. If she could capture Lu Pingping, she could use her to threaten Yan Fei, ultimately getting everything she wanted from him.
However, Lu Pingping was not the same as Wen Rou. Not only was she a true Chinese person, but she also had genuine talents and was a top-tier management talent. If Lu Pingping chose to serve the country in the future, she could create a vast amount of wealth for the nation and would be a valuable asset. Therefore, after threatening Yan Fei, Duan Hongye not only wouldn't kill Lu Pingping but would also try to foster a reunion between Yan Fei and Lu Pingping, considering it a form of compensation for Yan Fei's handover of Dream Island and its technologies.
