Rebirth: At the beginning, the cool school beauty was caught stealing in the supermarket

Chapter 705 Old Zheng in the United States

Lu Yuanqiu parked his father's car at the west gate of Baixi Company. He didn't bring Bai Qingxia this time. At this crucial moment of Xia Yiwanmian vs. Baixi Classic, both Bai Qingxia and he should try to minimize their appearance in the public eye.

The west gate wasn't the main entrance, but there were still quite a few people coming and going from the company. Lu Yuanqiu got out of the car and saw a man standing inside the iron gate, waiting.

That's right, it must be him.

Lu Yuanqiu closed the car door, pulled up the hood of his hoodie, and ran over. The employee seemed to recognize Lu Yuanqiu, but still confirmed, "A friend of President Zheng?"

Lu Yuanqiu nodded: "Yes, where's the letter?"

The clerk handed a brown paper-colored envelope through the crack in the door. Lu Yuanqiu took it and said, "Thank you for your help."

The employee simply nodded in agreement and hurriedly returned to the company. Lu Yuanqiu knew that this employee must have entered White Rhino Company in a legitimate way and then secretly went to find the envelope.

There are risks involved in doing this. If someone discovers what he's been doing secretly inside White Rhino Company, it could affect the normal relationship between White Rhino and Daohe.

After receiving the letter and getting back into his car, Lu Yuanqiu was about to start the engine when he suddenly saw a luxury car parked at the West Gate. It wasn't surprising to see a luxury car, but the person who got out of the car caught Lu Yuanqiu's attention.

The tall man, over 1.9 meters, was quite conspicuous; it was Zhang Yifei, the man Lu Yuanqiu had always found appealing.

Zhang Yifei should be in his second semester of freshman year now. I wonder which university he's attending. You could ask Liu Wangchun for that information, since Zhang Yifei's girlfriend is Liu Wangchun's younger sister.

Lu Yuanqiu looked away, started the car, and drove towards home.

He arrived at the sixth floor where Bai Qingxia was. The two of them had gone back to Lucheng for the Qingming Festival these past few days, but were actually going back tomorrow.

"It's in hand."

After the girl opened the door from the inside, Lu Yuanqiu smiled and waved the envelope in his hand.

Bai Qingxia took it with her mouth slightly open, then turned and walked into the house: "Come in and close the door."

Her hair was tied in a bun, and she was still wearing a white nightgown. The neckline of the nightgown was very large and was tilted to one side, revealing most of one shoulder. The purple shoulder strap on that side was clearly visible, and below the hem of the nightgown was half of her slender, snow-white calves. Her small, pink heels were peeking out from behind her slippers.

The light from the window ahead was bright, casting a slender, graceful shadow beneath her large nightgown.

"You dress like this at home? What if a stranger saw you like this and had bad intentions?"

Bai Qingxia turned around and gave him an annoyed look: "There's a peephole on the door, and I won't open the door for strangers."

Aunt Zhang was taking a nap. The two of them went into Bai Qingxia's room and closed the door. Lu Yuanqiu walked to the bedside and sat down, putting his arm around her waist and pulling her into his arms. Bai Qingxia sat obediently on his lap, carefully examining the envelope.

Lu Yuanqiu rested his chin on her snow-white shoulder as they examined the envelope together.

Lu Yuanqiu: "Should we demolish it?"

Bai Qingxia bit her lower lip lightly, seemingly struggling with a decision.

Actually, there's nothing to be conflicted about. The demolition is definitely happening; Bai Qingxia is just a little unprepared.

Moreover, both of them knew that the letter they wrote to their wives on their wedding anniversary was nothing more than some romantic words... but in their eyes, the content of the letter was very precious.

Because this is the only sober voice that Baek Song-cheol left in this world.

Bai Qingxia turned her head slightly and handed the envelope to the back of her: "You open it."

Lu Yuanqiu took the envelope, tore it open in front of the girl in his arms, pulled out the letter inside, and unfolded it to read.

“Ran, you always say I have a bad memory, but I still remember every day that should have a sense of ritual…” Lu Yuanqiu read it softly, then teased, “Hey, that’s quite a coincidence, Xia also always says I have a bad memory.” Bai Qingxia laughed in his arms.

"In fact, I still remember a lot. I remember the little temper you put aside for the sake of this family, the way you secretly rubbed your back when you were tired, and the way your eyes curved into crescent moons when you smiled—that was the most beautiful scenery I've ever seen in my life."

"Oh dear, my father-in-law is so cheesy, I can't read any more, I can't read any more."

Lu Yuanqiu held Bai Qingxia in his arms as they lay on the bed. He put the letter aside and took advantage of the chaos to kiss Bai Qingxia on the cheek and neck. He then spread her legs apart under her skirt with his left leg and wrapped his arm around her waist in a comfortable position.

“Read your father’s love poems to yourself,” Lu Yuanqiu whispered in her ear.

Bai Qingxia picked up the letter with a smile, lay on the bed and looked at it, but she didn't read it aloud.

After reading one page, Bai Qingxia flipped through the pages again, only to find that there were no more pages. She looked at the next page and asked in confusion, "Is Old Zheng Zheng Yifeng's father?"

Lu Yuanqiu opened his eyes in an instant.

"what happened?"

Bai Qingxia handed over the letter and said, "There's a sentence in it: Although Yun Tan was Lao Zheng's ex-wife, she was murdered in the United States, and Lao Zheng can't let it go. As his brother, I have to go with her. I know you're not happy to hear this, so I'll say it in the letter..."

Lu Yuanqiu immediately took the letter, sat up from the bed, and carefully examined the sentence. Bai Qingxia also sat up, continuing to examine the contents of the letter while observing Lu Yuanqiu's expression.

She knew that her father had taken a photo with Zheng Yifeng's father, but that was all she knew; she was far less aware of the details than Lu Yuanqiu.

Lu Yuanqiu nodded: "It should be Zheng Yifeng's father. If you're not sure, just ask if Zheng Yifeng's mother is named Yun Tan. Zheng Yifeng's father is currently missing. If he finds out that he's in the United States, Zheng Yifeng will be overjoyed... at least we'll have some news."

Lu Yuanqiu hesitated because he realized that even if he knew his father was in the United States, it would be like finding a needle in a haystack, since he didn't have any other information.

But at least there's some progress.

The call was made.

In the supermarket, Zheng Yifeng pushed his shopping cart between the shelves. He didn't know what to buy, so he just grabbed some snacks and drinks and then headed to the home furnishings section to buy bed sheets.

Su Miaomiao just messaged him, asking if he should buy some birth control pills for safety. Zheng Yifeng responded domineeringly: First, trust my calculations; second, I'll raise the child if it's born.

Su Miaomiao fell silent.

"Hello? Did you get the letter?" Zheng Yifeng answered the phone.

Lu Yuanqiu: "Is your mother's name Yun Tan?"

Zheng Yifeng stopped and asked in confusion, "Yes, how did you know?"

Lu Yuanqiu: "In the letter we received, Uncle Bai wrote a sentence, which I will read to you."

After Lu Yuanqiu finished reading the passage, he noticed that Zheng Yifeng was silent, so he could only ask again, "Hello?"

Bai Qingxia pressed her ear tightly against the back of Lu Yuanqiu's phone.

Zheng Yifeng: "...My mother died in a car accident in Lucheng. I just went to pay my respects to her a few days ago. How could she have been murdered in the United States? What do you mean by murdered? Killed...?"

This time, Lu Yuanqiu and Bai Qingxia fell silent.
