In her past life, she had witnessed the wickedness of people. Yao Lamei and Lu Chengyu deceived her and suppressed her, squeezing all her money and labor capacity without giving her a single penny, and finally kicked her away.

She thought that she and her brother-in-law were just using each other. She begged him to protect their family and that she could prevent her brother-in-law from being ridiculed for being unable to have children or get married.

But this man, who was always aloof, restrained, and extremely discreet, actually handed over all his wealth to her without hesitation.

Jiang Linwan subconsciously took a half step back, her beautiful face full of astonishment. The evening breeze ruffled the stray hairs at her temples, making her skin appear fair and delicate.

"No, I can't accept it!"

"Why? You don't want to marry me?" Lu Qiyue asked.

Jiang Linwan quickly shook her head: "No, but this money is yours..."

"It'll be yours eventually too. Don't men earn money for their wives?" Lu Qiyue shoved it into her hand, not giving her a chance to refuse. "Or are you saying you don't want me to have children?"

"Do men only earn money for their wives?" Jiang Linwan murmured, the image of Lu Chengyu pointing at her and scolding her in her past life echoing in her ears: "Marrying you was the worst thing that ever happened to me. What good are you if you can't even earn a penny?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Linwan quickly shook her head: "I didn't!"

She just felt it was inappropriate for her to do nothing, just hold a title and take other people's money, but maybe this kind of erectile dysfunction can be cured!

If it weren't for the fact that her uncle's condition was caused by working in the sex industry, she would have suspected that the disease was hereditary in the Lu family.

"Then take it." If she really insists on having a child later, he will let go.

"Thank you, Uncle!" Jiang Linwan put away the bankbook, pulled him quickly to her home, closed the door tightly, and mysteriously led Lu Qiyue into the house.

Then he closed the door tightly. Lu Qiyue was startled, thinking of what his comrades always said about how girls are prone to doing foolish things to men when they are moved.

This girl wouldn't be...

"Jiang Linwan! Let's wait until we're married..."

Then he had a black hardcover notebook in his hand.

"Open it and take a look!" Jiang Linwan said, "By the way, what did you say we'd do after the wedding?"

"It's nothing!" Lu Qiyue coughed awkwardly, quickly opening the notebook to cover his embarrassment. After seeing the contents, his expression turned serious, mixed with anger: "This is Lu Jianguo's?"

"Yes!" Jiang Linwan nodded.

Lu Qiyue gave Jiang Linwan a deep look, not questioning how she obtained these things, and turned around with a serious expression, saying, "I will hand this notebook over to the Municipal Anti-Voting Office."

They will handle this matter impartially.

"Do you want to come with me?" Lu Qiyue understood what the little girl meant and raised an eyebrow.

"Is it okay?" Jiang Linwan asked, somewhat uncertain.

"Why not? You were the one who discovered this. If it's true, dealing with this scourge will earn you a reward from above." He paused, then added:

"You don't need to worry that he'll cover for me just because he's my older brother. Family members should be punished for their mistakes too." After he finished speaking, he slowly added, afraid of scaring her, "It also depends on whether it's a small or big mistake. As long as it's not a serious offense, it's fine."

However, this girl looks timid and wouldn't do anything to harm others.

"Okay!" Jiang Linwan replied.

After Lu Qiyue went directly to the city's anti-corruption office and handed over the items, fearing that Lu Jianguo would use his connections to suppress the matter, Lu Qiyue revealed his identity.

As soon as he left, the staff of the city's anti-smuggling office realized that this matter was difficult to handle, so they immediately contacted their superiors, who then called Mr. Lu.

When Old Master Lu answered the phone, he was trembling with anger. He had fought for half his life, upholding the rules of the country and his family, and had lived a clean and honest life.

Unfortunately, his son, under the guise of a public official, engaged in the illegal sale of life-saving Western medicines and speculation, becoming a parasite on society...

Lu Jianguo knelt before the old man, looking at his ashen face, and cried pitifully, "Dad, I know I was wrong, please save me."

Old Master Lu slowly took off his reading glasses, his cloudy old eyes looking at him. The raging anger in his eyes had disappeared, leaving only a deep silence and the weariness of old age: "I'm old, I have no power anymore, I can't protect you, and I can't protect evil either."

"Dad, I'm your own son, you can't just stand by and watch me die."

"Don't you still have your old subordinates? They're all in high positions now. As long as you say the word, I'll be fine." Lu Jianguo suddenly looked up, panicked.

Old Master Lu spoke with heavy words, carrying an air of pride: "Throughout my life as an official, your second and third brothers have never once been subjected to my official power."

Now that I'm old, I would never ruin my life's reputation or break the rules of the country for you.

"You are reselling life-saving drugs, harming ordinary people, and violating the red line of national law."

Looking at the son he had raised from childhood, his eyes were completely devoid of any expectation, only filled with desolation.

"You chose this path, you committed this crime, and you deserve the full punishment."

"Dad, you can't abandon me. I'm your own son. If Mom were here, she wouldn't want me to be arrested. Please, please save me."

Old Master Lu was not a swindler. Lu Jianguo, kneeling on the ground, froze, his body turning cold. He knew the old man wouldn't help him.

A hint of hatred flashed in his eyes as he glared fiercely at Old Master Lu: "Dad, do you have to be so biased?"

"Do you only love Lu Qiheng and Lu Qiyue? How can you face my mother?"

"Don't forget, my mother suffered alongside you back then. That woman is a vixen. You can't turn your back on her now that you have power."

Lu Qiyue, who had just entered, punched him in the face, his eyes filled with malice: "You really are an ungrateful wretch. My mother has long been laid to rest, and it's not your place to slander her."

"You want me to acknowledge a woman who broke up someone else's family as my mother? Dream on! She's shameless, she's a mistress. Don't think you can move me with a few sweet words." Lu Jianguo glared fiercely at Old Master Lu and Lu Qiyue.

"That's enough. Lu Jianguo, back then your mother couldn't stand that I was always in the army and couldn't be with her, so she had an affair."

"I have never done anything to wrong her from beginning to end." Back then, Lu Jianguo's mother begged him not to tell the child the truth, wanting to leave a good impression.

He himself harbored selfish motives, and it would be so shameful to talk about such things.

He didn't want his son to suffer so much at such a young age, so he hid the truth. But he never expected that this action would cause him so much resentment.

If he had known the truth back then, would Jian Guo have ended up like this?

"You know that person, he's Sun Daqing, who used to visit you and your mother often."

You were seven or eight years old then, so think about it yourself.

"How could this be!" Lu Jianguo murmured, his face full of disbelief. But now that his father was bringing up things from his childhood, he could understand them now, even though he might not have understood them before.

The relationship between his mother and Sun Daqing did seem different. When he was young, Uncle Sun often visited his mother, bringing a lot of food each time, and the way he looked at his mother was different.

"We received a report that Lu Jianguo is suspected of using his position for speculation and profiteering..."
