Chapter 126 Lu Youyou Takes Action
Lu Youyou and Wen Rushi immediately discussed a countermeasure.
After the two exchanged contact information, Lu Youyou turned and left.
Shangguan Zhiyuan saw Wen Rushi coming back and immediately went to greet her. He asked with concern, "What did you talk about? Why did it take so long?"
There was a hint of curiosity in his eyes, and he seemed to be very interested in their conversation.
Wen Rushi smiled casually and said, "Nothing much. Yoyo asked me if I wanted to invest in the movie she made."
Shangguan Zhiyuan didn't notice anything unusual about Wen Rushi.
After hearing her words, a hint of displeasure flashed in his eyes, "It's better to invest in my project than in her movie. By the way, Aru, have you told your father about my project?"
Wen Rushi immediately lowered her head and shook it gently.
Then he looked up with a faint smile on his face, "Not yet... let's talk about it later."
Shangguan Zhiyuan frowned slightly, and a hint of doubt and worry flashed in his eyes.
He wondered in his heart, could it be that Wen Rushi had changed his mind?
Or is there a problem on her father's side?
The more he thought about it, the more uneasy he became. He decided to find a suitable time to test Wen Rushi's attitude.
Wen Rushi's eyes were wandering, and he seemed to be worried about something.
She took a deep breath and forced a smile on her face.
"Zhiyuan, I'm so sorry, I have something urgent to deal with here, so let's stop here today."
After saying that, she turned and left without looking back.
Shangguan Zhiyuan looked at Wen Rushi's gradually receding figure, seeming to be lost in thought.
He always felt that there was something wrong with Wen Rushi, but he couldn't tell what it was.
He decided to find an opportunity to ask Wen Rushi what had happened.
*
One evening a few days later, Shangguan Zhiyuan invited Wen Rushi to dinner.
The two of them sat at the dining table, and the atmosphere seemed a little solemn.
While Shangguan Zhiyuan was picking up some food for Wen Rushi, he tried to bring up the investment issue again.
But every time he opened his mouth, Wen Rushi cleverly changed the subject, which made him feel very helpless.
Shangguan Zhiyuan felt more and more strange and couldn't help asking, "Aru, are you hiding something from me?"
Wen Rushi's heart tightened and she quickly lowered her head to fiddle with the spoon in her hand.
Then, she stammered, "Nothing... nothing happened!"
She didn't dare look up into Shangguan Zhiyuan's eyes, for fear that her expression at the moment would betray her.
She has sent people to secretly investigate Shangguan Zhiyuan!
But before she found conclusive evidence, she didn't want to fall out with Shangguan Zhiyuan.
So as not to alert the enemy and make him vigilant.
More importantly, she was worried that Shangguan Zhiyuan would become desperate and do something to hurt her.
Shangguan Zhiyuan looked at Wen Rushi like this and became more certain of his guess.
He frowned and said in a serious tone: "Aru, there should be no secrets between us. If you encounter any difficulties, be sure to tell me and I will help you."
Wen Rushi took a deep breath and tried to make her voice sound calmer.
"Thank you, Zhiyuan. But I'm really fine, don't worry too much."
She must not reveal any flaws and let Shangguan Zhiyuan notice.
Hearing her words, Shangguan Zhiyuan sighed helplessly.
He knew Wen Rushi's character. If she didn't want to talk, no amount of questioning would help.
So he stopped asking further questions.
But the doubts in his heart did not disappear, but grew heavier.
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Wen Rushi forced a smile again, "Zhiyuan, I'm really fine, don't worry."
After saying that, she gently patted Shangguan Zhiyuan's hand, signaling him not to worry too much.
Shangguan Zhiyuan nodded and forced a smile.
Then he tried to bring up the investment again.
"Well, Aru, what do you think about the investment..."
Wen Rushi immediately interrupted him, "Let's talk about this later, let's eat now."
As soon as she finished speaking, she immediately picked up the bowl and began to concentrate on eating.
The two continued to eat quietly. After a while, Wen Ru got up and left his seat, saying he was going to the bathroom.
Then she quietly walked to the end of the corridor and made a phone call.
She heard her subordinates' voices on the other end of the phone, and she couldn't wait to ask, "How is it? Did you find out anything?"
The other party immediately responded: "I'm sorry, no useful clues have been found yet."
Hearing this, Wen Rushi frowned slightly and said firmly, "Keep investigating! We must find his flaws."
When Deng Wen Rushi returned to her seat, she found Shangguan Zhiyuan looking at her with a scrutinizing gaze.
He noticed that Wen Rushi's recent behavior was a little strange, so he decided not to beat around the bush and asked directly:
"Aru, have you heard anything about me?"
Faced with this sudden question, Wen Rushi's heart seemed to be hit hard by a sledgehammer, and her heartbeat instantly accelerated.
She subconsciously clenched the cup in her hand, not even noticing that her nails were digging deep into her palm.
Fortunately, the good psychological quality she had developed over the years allowed her to quickly adjust her mood.
She still had a faint smile on her face, "Zhiyuan, why do you ask that? Are you hiding something from me?"
Shangguan Zhiyuan shook his head and said in a serious tone: "Of course I won't hide it from you, but I also hope that you can be honest with me. If you have any questions or dissatisfaction with me, you can also tell me directly. I don't want any concealment or speculation between us."
Wen Rushi lowered her head and avoided Shangguan Zhiyuan's sharp gaze.
After a while, she raised her head again and said firmly: "Of course I will be honest with you! I don't have any complaints against you, really!"
After saying that, she picked up the fruit juice and took a sip, trying to hide her inner panic.
Shangguan Zhiyuan looked at Wen Rushi silently, with a hint of disappointment in his eyes.
Just then, his cell phone on the table suddenly rang.
He glanced at the screen and frowned.
Then, he stood up and said apologetically to Wen Rushi: "Aru, there is something urgent at the company, I have to leave first."
Wen Rushi nodded, her eyes full of concern, "Okay, then you go first, I'll pay the bill."
After Shangguan Zhiyuan left, Wen Rushi could no longer remain calm.
Her hands were shaking slightly, and the juice cup in her hands began to shake as well.
Even some of the liquid inside splashed out and dripped onto the table.
She took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down.
Because she knew that now was not the time to panic, she had to come up with a foolproof plan.
So she decided to call Lu Youyou immediately, hoping to get some help from her.
She quickly took out her cell phone, dialed Lu Youyou's number, and waited anxiously for the other party to answer.
Finally, the call was connected, and she couldn't wait to speak: "Yo Yo, Shangguan Zhiyuan has begun to suspect me, but the people I arranged have not found any useful evidence. What should I do?"
Lu Youyou's calm voice came from the other end of the phone: "Don't panic, calm him down first, and try not to let him notice your abnormality."
She sighed and continued, "Since your people can't find any useful clues, let me help you find them!"
Hearing this, Wen Rushi looked very surprised.
She asked doubtfully, "Can you...can you find out?"
Lu Youyou smiled confidently, "Don't forget, I was the one who told you that he was from the Thousand Machine Gate organization. So, believe me!"
After hearing this, Wen Rushi felt a warm feeling in her heart.
She responded gratefully: "Okay, thank you, I'll wait for your good news."
After saying that, she hung up the phone.
