Lu Pingsheng stretched out his hand to ask Wei Miao to help him into the house. She pretended not to see it and walked away, giving Feng Zhenzhen a "you know" smile.

Feng Zhenzhen looked at her mischievous appearance, supported Lu Pingsheng and sneered:

"You are just a brat, and you dare to learn how to matchmake."

Lu Pingsheng knew that she was not only not interested in men, but also hated them very much; the reason she supported him was because she learned that two of her arch enemies had died a few days ago.

Moreover, she went back to her house in the Japanese Concession under the pretext of getting something for herself, disguised herself and went to the Army Hospital, where she witnessed the miserable deaths of the two men before she gave up.

For this reason, she became even more gentle and considerate to him when there were people around during this period, causing everyone in the alley to remind him not to let Miss Feng down.

Lu Pingsheng touched the scar on his cheek and thought, would he dare? No!

So after being helped into the house by Feng Zhenzhen, he quickly moved away from her and walked to the phone and picked up the receiver.

"Lu Sang, I heard that you have been awake for half a month and are recovering well?"

Although Kazuken Aso greeted him, he was not very warm.

Lu Pingsheng coughed twice before he said weakly, "Thanks to everyone's care, I managed to save my life."

There was an eerie silence on the phone.

If it were in the past, Lu Pingsheng would definitely speak first to avoid making the atmosphere awkward, but now he is a mentally challenged patient, so it is normal for him to react slowly.

"I went back to my home country a few days ago and just arrived in Shanghai today. Please forgive me for not coming to visit Lu Sang."

After hearing the false politeness of the superior Aso Ichiken, Lu Pingsheng finally put his heart at ease.

"No wonder my repeated attempts to contact Aso-kun were fruitless."

Lu Pingsheng did not lie, he just exaggerated. After knowing that Aso Kazuken was not in Shanghai, he called several times but did not give his name. Who would pay attention to him?

Aso Kazuken cursed this man in his heart for being cunning, but he still patiently spoke and got to the point, "Regarding the matter of the fleet, has Lu Sang made any progress?"

If it were someone else, Lu Pingsheng would be afraid that someone might be monitoring his phone calls, but this person is not afraid, so what is he afraid of?

"If you are willing, Aso-kun, I agree to your request from half a month ago. Anyway, it is my fault that caused everyone's losses!"

Lupin's consistent humble and kind attitude made Aso Kazuken suspicious but also secretly relieved.

He has been busy for the past half month, sending out the family's fleet to patrol and explore the South Asian Gulf. Twelve ships of various sizes were sent out, but only one returned.

The surviving sailors on the ship brought back bad news: pirates were rampant in South Asia, and the ships were equipped with cannons, which would directly open fire from a long distance if the flag signals were wrong.

He felt that Durand's analysis should be correct. The fleet should have been targeted by pirates a long time ago, and this time they were likely to be captured in one fell swoop.

Since Lupin was willing to pay the money, he didn't hesitate.

After the two agreed on the time and what to bring, they hung up the phone.

Wei Miao held the mango cut by Xu Ayu in his hand and ate it with relish, ignoring the eyes staring at him.

Lu Pingsheng looked at the pretentious little kid and sighed, "Forget it, forget it. Children are grown up and no one can control them."

Anyway, that bastard Wang Sanshi's money came from illegal sources. It's all the fat of the people, he used it to bully men and women. It would be a disaster if he kept it in his hands. It's okay to give it to the little brat as a snack.

The gazes on him disappeared, and Wei Miao held the plate happily.

----------

By the end of April, Lu Pingsheng's health had almost recovered.

At least with the various feedings from Xu Ayu and Cui Apo, who live in the alley, he has gained weight visibly.

According to Wei Miao's standards, when Brother Lu raised his eyebrows and smiled with a crooked mouth, he finally looked a bit greasy.

"Ah Miao, do you think that with this scar on my face, I look more manly?"

Wei Miao looked at the man who was admiring himself in the mirror. He was wearing a custom-made dress from Rong Changxiang, shiny black leather shoes, and was spraying perfume on himself.

Wei Miao and Ali walked a little further away. She had a keen sense of smell and could always smell something different when others thought a scent was pleasant.

"You're disgusted by the things from your own perfume factory?"

Wei Miao took a few steps back while holding Ah Li, and walked in the middle of the yard. He took a few deep breaths and said:

"Brother Lu, when you go to Hong Kong Island this time, remember to say hello to Sister Zhen, Sister Xiangcao, Gao Erniang, and Da Zhuang for me..."

Wei Miao still misses the days when he could eat and drink and buy huge treasures in Hong Kong Island.

If it weren't for the language barrier, she would have wanted Brother Lu to convey a message to her little octopus brothers as well.

"I understand." Lu Pingsheng stood in the room and looked up.

In the yard on a spring evening, the setting sun bravely breaks through the shade of the trees, casting a golden outline on the boy holding a cat.

The young face was beaming with joy and had a bright smile on it. As she spoke, her dimples became more and more visible.

This scene made Lu Pingsheng feel warm in his heart. The little girl's indifferent look in the past seemed like it only existed in the last century, but now, from her hair to the corners of her mouth, she is full of the worldly air.

Wei Miao saw him standing at the door in a daze, walked a few steps closer, raised his hand and waved it in front of his eyes, and said earnestly:

"Brother Lu, you are not a child anymore. Miss Feng is really good. If you like her, you can cancel the engagement with Miss Xu..."

The corners of Lu Pingsheng's mouth twitched uncontrollably, and he said with a look of pain on his face:

"Please, let Ara go!"

Wei Miao didn't argue, turned around and shouted to the door:

"Grandma Cui, Grandma, we have tried to persuade him, but Brother Lu is so stubborn that he is unwilling to take responsibility!"

Lu Pingsheng followed her line of sight and saw a group of women at the door, led by Xu Ayu and Grandma Cui, looking at him as if he were a heartless man.

Feng Zhenzhen folded her arms across her chest and glanced at him sideways, her red lips curled up as she smiled with glee.

After Lu Pingsheng left, Wei Miao and Xu Ayu naturally returned to Guihuali Lane.

Xu Ayu carried Axi off the rickshaw, and Wei Miao followed behind holding Ali.

It was dinner time and the aroma of food filled the air from almost every household in the alley, but there were exceptions.

For example, the entrance to Mrs. Huang's house was very lively. Her two children, one hugged their legs and the other hugged their waist, crying with tears all over their faces.

"Mom, don't go!" the son shouted with his missing teeth.

"Mom, please take me away!" the daughter begged with sobs.

Mrs. Huang had messy hair and was holding her beloved dog Bella in her arms. She turned her head and shouted into the house:

"You want this little bastard to stay. I won't stay in this house for even a minute."

There was the sound of a woman crying softly, and a man whispering gentle words of comfort, and then there was Mr. Huang's angry roar:

"Get out! Get out and never come back again!"

Mrs. Huang, who originally just wanted to show her temper and teach those two unclear and sticky people a lesson, was immediately embarrassed in front of everyone.

"Okay, get out of here! Make room for you and this little bastard!"

After she said this, she broke free from her children, bent down, picked up a small suitcase, and walked out.

He left decisively, ignoring the pleas and cries of his children behind him.

When Mrs. Huang walked out of the crowd, she saw Wei Miao and Xu Ayu standing on the periphery.

She hurriedly tidied up her messy hair, then pulled the corner of her mouth as a greeting, and walked away.

She had already walked a few steps, but she stopped again, turned her head and shouted:

"Mrs. Wei!"

Xu Ayu was really not used to people calling her Mrs. Wei, and she didn't react for a moment.

But Mrs. Huang had already taken a few steps closer to her and whispered in her ear:

"Mrs. Wei, during the days when you were away, that little bitch living in my house always had her eyes on Mr. Wei. I know she knocked on your door in the dark and came back at dawn..."

After saying these half-truths, Mrs. Huang walked away, leaving Xu Ayu and Wei Miao staring at each other.

Brother Lu once said that all men in the world cheat, except him.

so. . .

Thinking of Wei Ada and the delicate Luan Qiaoling, she hissed with disgust and drove the hugging scene out of her mind.

When I came back to my senses, I found that Xu Ayu, who should have been angry and irritable, had a calm expression, as if nothing had happened.

"What are you looking at? Go home!"

Wei Miao looked at her back as she walked home with Ah Xi in her arms. He had no time to think. He shouted "Mom, wait a minute" and followed her.
