Rebirth: At the beginning, the cool school beauty was caught stealing in the supermarket
Chapter 858 The Uninvited Guest Outside
Chapter 858 The Uninvited Guest Outside
Lu Douqing got out of bed and ran to Lu Yuan, opened her arms and hugged her father, crying loudly.
Lu Yuan patted his daughter's back with a smile, saying, "Don't cry, don't cry."
On the stairs, just as Bai Qingxia was about to immerse herself in the somber atmosphere, she suddenly heard Lu Yuanqiu's words that ruined the mood.
"If my third sister were any smarter, she would consider Uncle Bai her enemy, since it was Uncle Bai who suggested that my third uncle choose this path. She even called her enemy 'Dad,' how ridiculous!" Lu Yuanqiu complained from the side.
Bai Qingxia frowned and, without turning her head, stabbed him in the chest with her elbow.
Lu Yuanqiu immediately clutched his chest, knelt down in anguish, and hugged her legs: "You're quite the expert at murdering your own husband..."
After dinner, Bai Songzhe and Lu Yuanqiu told Lu Yuan about their concerns.
After listening carefully, Lu Yuan replied, "I'm not quite sure which person you mean by 'background,' but Lao Song is reliable, and he's also very smart. Xiao Qiu is right; he's just waiting for me to state my position. You can rest assured and do this now. I guarantee they will cooperate."
Baek Song-cheol smiled and said, "Okay."
Lu Yuan: "I will also ask Lao Song who is interfering in this matter. The USB drive already rendered Li Changgeng powerless, so logically no one should help Zhang Zhisheng anymore."
Bai Songzhe: "Actually, we feel that the car accident has nothing to do with Zhang Zhisheng anymore."
After hearing this, Lu Yuan seemed to be deep in thought when a discordant female voice suddenly came from beside him: "Daddy, I want to eat that."
"Okay, okay, which one? That one?" Lu Yuan's expression softened as he pointed to the dishes on the table for his daughter.
Lu Douqing shook her head one after another, and finally giggled. Lu Yuan understood and brought the last dish she pointed to to his daughter.
"Silly girl, I'll just arrange a blind date for you and get you married off as soon as possible, so someone can take care of you in advance." Lu Yuan patted his daughter's head.
Just as Bai Songzhe was thinking Lu Yuan was awesome, an even more awesome man appeared. Lu Douqing, biting her chopsticks, looked up and said blankly, "Qiuqiu said she wants to marry me."
Bai Qingxia turned her head and looked over, while Lu Yuan blinked and looked at Lu Yuanqiu.
Lu Yuanqiu, who was diligently eating, paused in his act of picking up food and looked up.
"When did you make that joke? Third Sister still remembers it." He laughed heartily.
Lu Douqing opened her mouth: "A few days ago..."
Lu Yuanqiu stuffed a chicken leg into his third sister's mouth: "What do you mean by a few years ago? That was something we talked about when we were playing house in elementary school."
Lu Douqing focused on eating her chicken leg, ignoring Lu Yuanqiu's fabricated story. What she actually wanted to talk about was a few days ago.
I'll never joke around with my third sister again, sob sob, I'll behave myself (raises hands in surrender)
The next day, Lu Yuanqiu and Bai Qingxia returned directly to Lucheng, intending to pick up Grandma Lin from their home and take her to Zhucheng.
After being discharged from the hospital, Grandma Lin continued to live on the sixth floor of Xingfuli. In addition to her, there was another person living on the sixth floor, Xiao Li Feibiao.
His job was to protect Grandma Lin's safety these days, but nothing happened. Instead, Aunt Zhang kept asking him to help her buy groceries.
"Xiao Li, go downstairs and buy a bottle of dark soy sauce."
Wearing a bizarre combination of a suit, slippers, and sunglasses, Li Feibiao gave a cool reply, brushed past Lu Yuanqiu, and went out into the elevator.
Lu Yuanqiu turned around to look at him and couldn't help but ask, "Does he... always wear a suit at home?"
Wearing sunglasses is understandable, given his eye injury, but wearing a suit is really hard to comprehend. Lu Yuanqiu even suspected that this was the only suit he brought. Aunt Zhang forced a smile and said, "Yes."
Bai Qingxia sat at the table and peeled a banana. Not daring to give Grandma Lin too much, she broke it in half and handed one half to her. Grandma Lin's face had become a bit fuller recently, and she thanked her with a smile in her dialect.
"Here." Bai Qingxia pinched the remaining half and handed it to Lu Yuanqiu. Lu Yuanqiu bent down and took it with his mouth. Out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly noticed that the door was pushed open a crack. He thought it was Xiao Li Feibiao who had bought soy sauce and was wondering why it was so fast. But he didn't expect that only half a cell phone was sticking out of the crack in the door.
"Who?!"
Lu Yuanqiu shouted sharply and rushed over. He immediately pulled the phone out from the crack in the door and slammed it shut. Lu Yuanqiu pressed the handle to open the door, but there was no one outside.
The elevator wasn't moving, so the person was either still on this floor or had gone into the stairwell. Lu Yuanqiu locked the door, looked around, took out his phone to call Xiao Li Feibiao, and carefully moved towards the stairwell.
He heard a sound coming down the stairs in the empty stairwell; the person was running down the stairs!
The call connected, and Lu Yuanqiu retreated to the doorway, saying into the phone, "Someone is taking pictures and ran down the stairs. See if you can stop them."
"clear."
Brother Li's cool voice is quite reassuring.
To be honest, when Lu Yuanqiu saw a cell phone peeking through the crack in the door, his scalp tingled. It meant that someone with ill intentions already knew where their home was.
In the past, even in the most dangerous situations, Lu Yuanqiu would have maintained a calm demeanor, as if he were in the shadows while the enemy was in the open. But this time, he was not so calm.
"Knock knock knock." Lu Yuanqiu knocked on the door.
He didn't plan to chase after them, since there were only three women left in the house.
Bai Qingxia saw Lu Yuanqiu through the peephole, opened the door, and nervously grabbed Lu Yuanqiu's arm, asking, "What just happened?"
Lu Yuanqiu saw Aunt Zhang helping Old Lady Lin into the house from behind, holding a kitchen knife in her hand, looking very wary.
Although it was somewhat comical, Lu Yuanqiu couldn't laugh at the moment.
"Someone was taking pictures of me without my knowledge. I spoke to Xiao Li... Brother Li, to see if we could intercept them."
Five minutes later, Xiao Li came up the stairs, carrying a bottle of soy sauce as he entered the house. He shook his head at Lu Yuanqiu and said, "Didn't run into him."
"Aunt Zhang, please calm the old lady down and tell her not to worry," Lu Yuanqiu said, turning around.
He then turned to Little Li Flying Darts and asked, "Has this never happened before?"
“No, this should be the first time. The other side probably knows what you’re planning to do tomorrow, so they took action today,” Little Li Darts replied.
Tomorrow I'm going to prison. If I can find out who's behind this, tomorrow will be the most crucial step.
Lu Yuanqiu nodded and asked Xiao Li Feidiao, "Do you think we need to arrange some manpower?"
He nodded: "I'll make the contact."
Bai Songzhe returned that evening and made several phone calls after learning about the incident. Lu Yuanqiu even heard the Second Master's voice in one of the calls, but he didn't pay much attention. He spent the entire night inseparable from Bai Qingxia.
As Lu Yuanqiu closed Bai Qingxia's bedroom door before going to sleep, he looked at the girl sitting on the edge of the bed, who was also looking at him. In a daze, he realized that rather than worrying about Old Madam Lin's safety, his anxiety all day stemmed from Bai Qingxia.
His biggest worry was still her.
