Before he died, my grandfather forced me to marry the richest man in the capital.

When Lu Yiyue returned home, she found the living room light was still on. Feeling guilty, she touched the man's handiwork on her neck, lowered her head, and pushed open the door.

When Lu Jinnan and Su Xue saw their daughter return, they both stood up and went to the door to greet her. The sharp-eyed Lu Jinnan noticed the band-aid on his daughter's neck. "Baby, what happened to your neck? Let Daddy take a look."

As he was about to reach out to tear it open, Lu Yiyue quickly covered him with her hand to stop him, pressing down on the bag with one hand, "Dad, it's nothing, I just accidentally pricked myself with a needle, it'll be fine in a few days."

Su Xue noticed that her daughter's clothes had changed. When she left home in the morning, she wore a long, white, off-the-shoulder, fitted shirt, but now she was wearing a black fitted dress and high heels. However, she didn't say anything.

Lu Jinnan didn't say anything. After all, his daughter had been wearing the same outfit when she went out in the morning and a different outfit when she came back in the evening, so he naturally assumed that his daughter loved to dress up.

Furthermore, since he hadn't learned anything about any dangerous individuals from his assistant or bodyguards, this was the reason why Lu Jinnan felt at ease and didn't suspect anything.

After explaining to her parents, Lu Yiyue went back to her room to take a shower, using the excuse that she was a little tired.

Su Xue felt that her daughter's behavior had been a bit strange lately. She changed her clothes twice a day and didn't have a boyfriend. She couldn't figure it out. When one person couldn't understand something, she would try to get the other person to think about it together.

So, she sent her question to her best friend: "Honey, are you asleep or having a blissful night out?"

Before Tang Junyao could reply, Su Xue sent another message: No way, your nightlife starts that early?

The next second Tang Junyao replied, but instead of text, she sent a picture of herself working overtime in her study. The corner of the picture even captured Ji Hancheng's wrist. It was clear that she had just taken the picture casually, without putting any thought into it. She probably just turned on the camera and took the picture with her eyes closed without even aiming it properly.

P.S.: Big sister, I don't have as much of a nightlife as you. I'm working hard.

Su Xue: You scared me to death! I thought I had disturbed your happy life. Even if your husband, Lao Ji, asked me to compensate him, I wouldn't be able to.

Tang Junyao was too lazy to argue with her about such a sensitive topic. She had just finished a surgery with some senior colleagues and was currently reviewing it: "So, what is it?"

Su Xue: You know me too well. Let me tell you, Yueyue has been acting strange lately. How should I put it? It's a bit like she's in love. She loves dressing up, changing outfits twice a day. The clothes she wears to the studio in the morning are definitely something else when she comes back in the evening, and she even has a band-aid on her neck at night. Don't you think it's...

After reading the message, Tang Junyao choked on a mouthful of boiling water. "Cough cough cough..." Lele was so careless.

Ji Hancheng stopped typing, stood up, took out a tissue to wipe her face, and patted her shoulder. "What's wrong? I'm not going to take it from you, why are you in such a hurry?"

Tang Junyao didn't speak, cleared her throat, and handed the phone to the man, telling him to look for himself. "Look."

Ji Hancheng took his wife's phone and started reading it. After reading the message Su Xue sent, his smile gradually widened, and he said with considerable pride, "Your son has made something of himself."

"At this rate, Lu Jinnan and Xiaoxue will find out sooner or later."

If they find out, Su Xue might come to the Ji residence that very night to discuss the marriage, and Lu Jinnan might call Lele over and beat her up, then forbid Lele from seeing Yueyue.

Ji Hancheng handed the phone back to his wife and asked her to reply to the message. He replied casually, "You think Lu Jinnan didn't find out? The studio's assistant is Lu Jinnan's informant, as are those bodyguards from before."

Then Ji Hancheng sat down in the chair and analyzed, "Judging from the current situation, your son must have bribed the studio's assistant."

"Don't say anything. Let me think about how to reply to Xiaoxue. I have to think carefully before I speak to Xiaoxue now." She was afraid that she might say something wrong and cause trouble for her son.

Ji Hancheng smiled and said naturally, "Don't feel guilty. They are in love with each other. It's not like your son has already taken someone else's daughter."

"You're really something else. When it comes to dating, it's always the woman who suffers. Shut up, don't say anything, let me think about it."

Tang Junyao was looking at the message, biting the pen tip with her teeth, deep in thought. The man stood up, suddenly bent down and quickly pecked her on the corner of her lips. "I'm going to the bathroom. You can reply slowly."

Tang Junyao: "............."

As he stepped outside, Ji Hancheng bumped into Ji Jiale, who had just returned home. He looked his son up and down and said, "Be mindful of your boundaries when you talk to people. Don't make them keep changing clothes."

Ji Jiale: "............"

"Um."

Seeing his son calm and composed, as if nothing had happened, Ji Hancheng smiled and said, "Although the bodyguards are all your uncle's men, if they don't report anything, they seem to have no presence. Let the bodyguards carry some information back."

"Okay, I'm going to take a shower."

Watching his son's retreating figure as he entered the room, Ji Hancheng kindly took out his phone and dialed Han Yue's number. "He's asleep," he said.

Han Yue on the other end was clearly impatient, his tone unfriendly, "Get to the point, I'm busy."

At this moment, Han Yue is in his son's room watching Han Yichen do his homework. He should be holding Xiao Xi and watching TV in bed at this time, but now he can't go back to his room until 11 p.m.

She had already silently repeated "biological, biological" several times in her mind, so when she saw Ji Hancheng calling, her tone was naturally unfriendly.

Ji Hancheng ignored the dissatisfaction in Han Yue's tone, "Is teaching Xiao Chen causing hormonal imbalance or sexual dissatisfaction? He's so irritable, be careful of excessive liver fire."

Han Yue knew this guy wouldn't say anything nice. "Get lost. Do you have something to say or not? The teacher is busy."

"If the Han Group goes bankrupt one day, you'll still have food to eat. You can become a teacher at a high school in the capital and make a living."

Han Yue chuckled and threatened in a lukewarm tone, "Do you still want a daughter-in-law?"

With his lifeline in his hands, Ji Hancheng stopped teasing and went straight to the point, "Have your bodyguard leak some information to Jin Nan, give him some information to keep him busy. I'm afraid he'll get hemorrhoids from sitting too much."

Han Yue knew this guy wasn't up to anything. "Thank you on behalf of his whole family. Bye."

Ji Hancheng lost control of his tongue, "Don't be polite. If Lele and Yueyue get together, you'll have accomplished your mission."

Han Yue chuckled, crossed his legs, and turned to Han Yichen, who was listening to gossip instead of doing his homework, to say sternly, "Do your homework."

As she spoke, she stood up and walked outside, warning her son to do his homework properly, "What about passing away? I'm only doing this for Lele's sake. If it were you, there would be no room for negotiation."

After saying that, she hung up the phone, not giving Ji Hancheng any chance to continue teasing her. Then she closed the door to prevent her son from eavesdropping. Standing outside the door, she sent Lu Jinnan a message that was half true and half false: "Someone is trying to woo your daughter. His name is Xie Mufeng, Xiao Chen's senior brother. You're welcome."

Lu Jinnan quickly replied: Thanks, I'll treat you to dinner another day.

Han Yue replied immediately after reading the message, rejecting it outright: "I don't have time, eat it yourself, no need to thank me."

He dared not eat this meal. After all, he had been selective in sending the message, feeling guilty and afraid that Lu Jinnan would settle scores with him later.

It's hard to digest and can cause nightmares.

Lu Jinnan was rather suspicious of Han Yue's politeness: "Is your information fake? You're actually afraid to eat my food."

Han Yue: Just give me the money directly. From now on, all information will be charged according to the catalog. One piece of information is 10,000 yuan, and two pieces of information will be charged at a 12% discount. Transfer the money to my WeChat.

This tone completely dispelled Lu Jinnan's suspicions: Why don't you just rob someone? One message costs 10,000 yuan. Do you think you're mining for gold? If you don't have the money, funds over 5 yuan require multiple layers of approval.

Han Yue: Keep it for yourself. By the time you approve it, my hair will have turned from black to white.

Lu Jinnan laughed: Damn, you don't actually want to compete with me in classical Chinese, do you?

Han Yue: You think you can get my knowledge for free by just taking information for free? Go to sleep.

Lu Jinnan: "............" Doesn't the dictionary have black hair and white hair? How did it become his knowledge point?

The following Friday.

Originally, Lu Qingchen was picked up from school by her father every week. However, based on the personal information that Han Yue had given to Lu Jinnan, Lu Jinnan decided to meet the guy named Xie Mufeng.

She naturally took on the task of picking up her son.

At the gate of Imperial Capital University, Lu Jinnan drove a sports car and parked it there. As fate would have it, Xie Mufeng had been coming to see Lu Qingchen every day recently, also trying to find out about Lu Yiyue.

Ever since that day when he met Lu Yiyue, he would always ask Lu Qingchen if she wanted to go to the studio. However, Lu Qingchen didn't like staying in her sister's studio and found it boring, so she didn't have an excuse for Xie Mufeng to go to the studio.

Xie Mufeng, like an older brother, put his arm around Lu Qingchen's shoulder and walked towards the school gate. When he saw the luxury car at the gate and Lu Jinnan, dressed in a suit and leather shoes, leaning against the car door, Xie Mufeng still politely greeted him, "Hello, Uncle Lu."

Back then, Lu Jinnan was a frequent visitor to the trending topics, and there weren't many people who didn't know him. In addition, since Lu Jinnan was Lu Qingchen's father, Xie Mufeng naturally knew about him.

The internet has a memory; a simple search will reveal the results.

Lu Jinnan leaned casually against the car door, gesturing for his son to get in. Lu Qingchen, however, was completely bewildered, wondering what had gotten into his father.

He stood still, intending to see what was going on. His senior brother and his father didn't have any connection.

"Know me."

Xie Mufeng answered honestly that he had indeed searched for it, "I've seen it online."

Lu Jinnan sized up the person in front of him, from head to toe and then from toe to head repeatedly, feeling that he wasn't domineering enough and couldn't protect their Yueyue. He was already internally rejecting the person. "You like our Yueyue?"

Lu Qingchen: ".............." Had he heard correctly? What? Xie Mufeng wanted to pursue his sister?
