Chapter 455: If you walk too much at night, you will see ghosts
Lu Xingchen and Li Zhen brought Lu Yisen to visit old lady Lu in the hospital. Lu Yisen placed his little robot at the old lady's bedside. In this way, there were already quite a few children's little toys at the old lady's bedside, which were all the children's love and expectations for the old lady.
Apart from that, Ethan Lu lay beside the old lady and muttered to herself, mostly about how he had been doing recently and some interesting things that had happened, because Lu Xingchen told him that as long as he talked to his grandmother often, she would wake up soon.
At this time, Li Zhen's cell phone vibrated. He quickly took it out, signaled to Lu Xingchen with his eyes, then picked up the phone and walked out of the ward.
Not long after he left, Lu Yize rushed into the ward, but did not approach the old lady's bed. Instead, he looked at Lu Xingchen in panic.
Seeing that he was in a hurry, Lu Xingchen said to Chen Ma, "Chen Ma, you take care of Yisen, I'll go out for a while."
Lu Xingchen and Lu Yize walked out of the ward together. Lu Yize insisted on walking to a place where there was no one, then stopped and said to Lu Xingchen with a serious face: "Sister, Zhu Jiarui has returned to China."
Zhu Jiarui?
Shen Mingzhen's half brother? Then Lu Yize's visit to her this time should be related to Shen Mingzhen's matter.
Sure enough, Lu Yize continued, "He sent me an email two days ago, saying that he went to find Yang Wenqi. If he disappeared afterwards, it must be related to Yang Wenqi. After I saw the email, I went to find Zhu Jiarui and found that he had not returned since he left the hotel the day before yesterday."
Lu Xingchen's face tightened. "Zhu Jiarui went to see Yang Wenqi because of Shen Mingzhen's matter. Before he went, he said that something might happen to him. It is very likely that he knows some secret of Yang Wenqi."
Lu Yize was so nervous because of this. "He also told me in the email that Shen Mingzhen would never kidnap Yang Wenqi's daughter out of jealousy, because if she really wanted to do something to Yang Wenqi, she could just hand over the evidence and let Yang Wenqi go to jail, instead of letting Yang Wenqi stay in jail."
"If that's the case, then it means Shen Mingzhen deliberately took the blame for the kidnapping." Lu Xingchen couldn't help but hold his breath a little when he said this. He looked into Lu Yize's eyes and asked, "But why did she do this?"
Lu Yize couldn't help but gasp, "Could it be... for Yang Wenqi?"
That's not right. After Lu Yize finished speaking, he put his hands on his waist and shook his head, "But how could Second Aunt instruct others to kidnap her own daughter? What's the purpose?"
Seeing Lu Yize's unwillingness to believe, Lu Xingchen asked back, "What if her original target was not Xinyue?"
It's not Xinyue...
No way? Lu Yize looked at Lu Xingchen in shock, and after a long time he said a name, "Yisen?"
Once the name came out, Lu Xingchen actually didn't need to explain much. Even Lu Yize, who was very reluctant to participate in the internal family struggle, roughly guessed the motive.
The old lady handed Ethan Lu to Lu Xingchen, but something happened to Ethan Lu in Lu Xingchen’s hands, not to mention that Lu Xingchen would become a suspect, even if it wasn’t, if something happened to Ethan Lu, Lu Xingchen, who had already been ostracized by the Lu family, would never have the chance to set foot in the Lu family again.
Furthermore, Lu Yisen is Lu Dingsheng's son after all. If something really happens to this son, will Lu Dingsheng still treat Lu Xingchen the same way as before? As far as Lu Xingchen is concerned, she absolutely cannot face Lu Dingsheng with dignity.
In this way, they killed two birds with one stone, not only getting rid of Lu Yisen, but also eliminating Lu Xingchen.
The depth and viciousness of this scheme is obvious.
But, it's just an inheritance right of the Lu family, and no one is sure who will get it. Is it necessary to plunder it at the cost of human lives, or even the lives of blood relatives?
"It seems that you were right to choose to leave the Lu family. Otherwise, it would be like this if you hadn't stayed at home. You can imagine that if you had stayed..." Lu Yize was extremely disappointed with the relationship within the Lu family. He didn't want to continue talking, so he just asked Lu Xingchen, "What should we do now?"
Lu Xingchen lowered his eyes and pondered for a long time. "Before this incident happened, Zhu Jiarui came to see you once. It can be seen that he had already noticed Shen Mingzhen's abnormality at that time. It seems that they had already started planning this matter at that time, so Shen Mingzhen insisted on sending Zhu Jiarui abroad, fearing that he would be implicated..."
At this point, she looked at Lu Yize decisively and said, "Go visit Shen Mingzhen and tell her about Zhu Jiarui's situation. See if it's possible to get some information from her. I will ask Li Zhen to look for Zhu Jiarui."
"it is good."
"And Aze." Lu Xingchen reminded him, "Since this is related to Yang Wenqi, don't mention this to anyone else for the time being, and don't use the Lu family's connections easily. First, it's for your safety, and second, if you use the Lu family's people to investigate this matter, Yang Wenqi will definitely notice it."
"I understand. I'll go find Shen Mingzhen now."
Lu Yize left the hospital in a hurry. Lu Xingchen was about to return to the ward when she saw Li Zhen walking towards her with a serious expression. He handed her his phone and whispered, "I got the video from Xu Yumei."
Lu Xingchen opened her phone and saw a picture of Yang Wenqi and Lu Yiheng having an affair in the greenhouse of the Lu family's old house. Lu Xingchen turned off the screen immediately and couldn't bear to watch it anymore because she would immediately think of the betrayal suffered by Lu Dingsheng, which made her heartbroken.
Li Zhen sighed heavily, "Xu Yumei also admitted that she had tipped off Yang Wenqi, saying that her affair with Lu Yiheng might have been photographed by Lu Yisen. The camera Lu Yisen used was the one that Yang Wenqi asked the driver to take to repair that day."
So the reason why the old lady got into trouble was because she discovered Yang Wenqi’s secret in Lu Yisen’s camera, and then was killed by Yang Wenqi?
Li Zhen continued, "Also, the earrings you gave me were custom-made by Lu Dingsheng."
It's not hard to guess that it was given by Lu Dingsheng to Yang Wenqi, but how did Yang Wenqi repay these kindnesses? Lu Xingchen couldn't help but clench his fists, and it took a lot of strength to suppress his urge to kill Yang Wenqi immediately.
"I have something else to look into, and I need you to investigate further."
Lu Xingchen recounted in detail what he had learned from Lu Yize about what Zhu Jiarui had said.
Two days later in the morning.
Zhencheng Company.
Chen Xiaolin, who had taken a few days off, put on heavier makeup than usual to hide her haggard look. She came to the company as usual, but as soon as she entered the company, she noticed the strange looks from her colleagues around her.
Even though she was exhausted, she keenly guessed that something had happened, but she was not sure what it was. She ignored those people and walked into the AI office lobby. As expected, everyone looked at her at the same time, and the look in their eyes was exactly the same as that of the people outside.
Even several colleagues who were originally whispering to each other quickly dispersed because of her arrival, as if they were just talking to her and now they were afraid of being heard by her so they quickly avoided her.
Chen Xiaolin looked at them out of the corner of her eye and continued to walk towards her office without looking away. Just as she sat down, her assistant Xu Lu came up to her with a panicked and guilty expression and said, "Boss, please check the company's email and let the superiors handle it."
