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

Chapter 819 Actually, I'm 35 years old this year
After taking off their protective suits, Lu Yuanqiu and Bai Qingxia left the workshop and walked hand in hand toward the elevator in the building.

The elevator doors opened, and the mirror inside reflected their figures standing together. Just as Lu Yuanqiu was about to enter, Bai Qingxia suddenly reached out and tugged at him.

"What's wrong?" Lu Yuanqiu reached out to stop the elevator and turned to look at her.

Bai Qingxia took out her phone, took a small step back, and opened the camera with a smile. She held the screen horizontally with both hands. Lu Yuanqiu peeked over and saw that the phone was pointing at the mirror inside the elevator, and the mirror reflected their figures dressed in formal attire.

Both were dressed in custom-made black suits, a perfect match.

Bai Qingxia's tailored suit was smart and stylish. The trousers were adorned with stilettos with black bows, revealing glimpses of her fair and delicate insteps. Her slightly padded shoulders were covered by a cascade of long, straight, black hair on one side, while her beautiful ear was visible on the other. This hairstyle added a touch of mature and sophisticated charm to her overall look.

Fortunately, she is not short, otherwise this outfit would be hard to pull off.

Lu Yuanqiu, standing to the side, had shiny leather shoes and a tall, upright figure. His long legs, accentuated by his suit, made him appear less burly and more slender. Today, the two of them standing together looked like an urban elite couple.

Bai Qingxia rarely takes photos of the two of them together. Seeing this, Lu Yuanqiu smiled, then seriously raised his chin slightly, put one hand in his pocket, and struck a pose at the elevator entrance.

He glanced to the side and reminded him, "Stretch one foot forward a little, place your left hand horizontally under your right elbow, raise your right hand to take the phone, lower the phone a little, expose your face, look at the screen, don't look in front of you."

"Like this?" Bai Qingxia did as she was told, feeling quite cool in the manner she was doing.

"Ah."

After giving instructions, Lu Yuanqiu continued posing.

...Okay, Lu Yuanqiu is even more arrogant than her.

The two people at the elevator entrance looked even more handsome at that moment.

"Crack!"

Commemorating their first cool photo together.

The elevator stopped on the third floor. The elevator doors opened, and two young female employees saw Lu Yuanqiu and Bai Qingxia standing side by side inside. They were so amazed that their eyes widened slightly, and they quickly bowed their heads to greet them: "Hello, President Lu, hello, President Bai."

Bai Qingxia smiled and nodded at them, very approachable.

Lu Yuanqiu, however, seemed to still be caught up in his cool demeanor, and gave a very aloof "hmm".

Two female employees stood in front of them, exchanging excited glances.

Is this a model or a leader? She's so good-looking.

People kept coming in and going out of the elevator, and everyone greeted the two of them respectfully. When the elevator arrived at the 12th floor, Bai Qingxia raised her small hand and rubbed one cheek, silently exhaling, feeling that her face was about to freeze from smiling.

I should have followed Lu Yuanqiu's aloof act...

After exiting the elevator, Lu Yuanqiu took out his phone, glanced at it, and headed towards his office.

Li Qingxuan stood up from her workstation and greeted them: "President Lu, President Bai."

Lu Yuanqiu: "Mm."

Bai Qingxia neither smiled at Li Qingxuan nor responded. She and Lu Yuanqiu walked into the general manager's office together and closed the door.

Li Qingxuan smiled and sat back down, continuing her work.

Lu Yuanqiu went to his desk and turned on his computer. Next to the desk was a chair with a pink cushion, which was specially prepared for Bai Qingxia.

They opened the video on the computer and began to watch it attentively.

In the video, Lin Ping'an sits under the light wearing handcuffs, looking somewhat numb, and answers the questions from the two police officers in front of him in a disjointed manner.

However, when asked about the car accident ten years ago, Lu Yuanqiu noticed that Lin Ping'an raised his eyes for the first time.

But his response remained a calm denial, a complete denial. He seemed indifferent to the two policemen playing good cop/bad cop to him, sitting there completely unfazed. Lu Yuanqiu and Bai Qingxia gradually began to frown.

At the end of the video, Lin Ping'an even asked, "Should my death sentence still be carried out as scheduled?"

His impatient tone left the two policemen sitting at the table speechless, exchanging glances as if they had never seen anything like it before.

After the video ended, Lu Yuanqiu played it again and finally closed it.

Despite Lin Pingquan's complete denial, Lu Yuanqiu still believed it was this person.

The last time he sent Liu Chengye the three words "Lin Ping An", Liu Chengye did not respond. A few days later, Lu Yuanqiu sent Liu Chengye the message "Liu Wangchun is in a relationship", but Liu Chengye replied with a question mark immediately.

Lu Yuanqiu replied, "Just kidding," to which Liu Chengye responded with three periods.

This proves that he clearly saw the three words "Lin Ping An" but pretended to ignore them, which completely shows that Lu Yuanqiu found the right person.

“There’s not enough evidence. This kind of interrogation is useless. He’s not afraid of death, and he doesn’t even know if he still wants to be free. My feeling is that he has no will to live and nothing matters to him anymore.” Lu Yuanqiu exhaled, leaned back in his chair, turned around, and faced Bai Qingxia.

Bai Qingxia: "But all that hard work to find him, is it all for nothing...?"

Lu Yuanqiu: "Not necessarily. My experience from childhood tells me that when facing difficulties, you must believe that there will be an opportunity to turn things around, even if you don't have it in your hands yet."

Bai Qingxia suddenly laughed: "You haven't finished your studies yet, what difficulties could you possibly encounter growing up?"

Lu Yuanqiu leaned forward, resting his elbows on his knees, and looked at her with a serious expression: "You might not believe it, but I'm actually 35 years old this year. According to my age, you should call me Uncle. Call me Uncle Lu."

Bai Qingxia replied expressionlessly, "Oh, you big idiot Lu."

"believe or not."

Lu Yuanqiu pushed off the table legs, and the chair beneath him slid along, circling Bai Qingxia halfway around. Bai Qingxia, holding onto the chair, turned around, her gaze following him.

Lu Yuanqiu pondered in his mind what a death row inmate might care about.

Alive.

free.

If he doesn't care.

Does he have anyone he cares about?
But he happens to be an unregistered resident.

As Lu Yuanqiu thought of this, Lin Ping'an's eyes reappeared in his mind. They were calm and numb eyes, not like the eyes of a normal person who had hope for life.

"Knock knock knock." There was a knock on the office door, and Li Qingxuan's voice came from outside: "President Lu, Chu Lan from the HR department is here and wants to see you."

Lu Yuanqiu: "Let her in."

The door was opened from the outside, and Chu Lan, who was wearing an employee badge around her neck, nodded to Li Qingxuan to thank her. Li Qingxuan responded and then closed the door.

"President Lu, President Bai."

"There's no one else here, why are you being so distant, senior?"

"No need to be distant, no need to be distant." She walked over with a smile, awkwardly waving two red cards in her hand.

"What is that?" Lu Yuanqiu and Bai Qingxia reached out and took it, only to see that the card read "Engagement Invitation".

"Damn it..." These two words instantly popped into Lu Yuanqiu's mind.
