Mr. Lu's delicate bag

Chapter 173: Beware of the Rat

Shen Jiaojiao originally thought that her uncle would stay back tonight, and the two of them would only be able to contact each other by phone. However, after arriving home, she called her uncle first, and the person on the other end actually told her that she should stay back here tonight. You know, at noon, her aunt had already taken Xiao Ximi to the riverside villa.

After she finished washing up, she had been practicing the piano in the piano room for less than half an hour when she heard noises downstairs. She left the door open and heard the aunts greeting her uncle. Shen Jiaojiao quickly stopped what she was doing, closed the piano, and came out, waving down from the railing, "Uncle, you're back?"

Lu Shize looked up and waved to her over the tall Christmas tree, "Come down for a midnight snack, see if you like it."

Shen Jiaojiao, wearing a pink bunny home clothes, ran down excitedly. When she got up to the man, she naturally put her arm around him and said, "Uncle, let me tell you something. I think it's a bit strange."

She told him about how she went to pick up Lu Yanran and met her brother. The strange thing was that this time, she did not see any disgust towards Lu Yanran in Lu Zhiheng's eyes.

It wasn't like this every time before.

"Uncle, I'm not deliberately criticizing others. It's just that Yanran is my best friend. I just find it strange why her brother's attitude towards her seems to have changed."

Lu Shize had no feelings for Lu Yanran, but when he thought about the two times she had taken the initiative to come to him, he still felt a little disgusted. "Did something happen in their family? Or, something happened between the two siblings?"

Shen Jiaojiao shook her head. In fact, she had no idea what was going on. "Forget it, if you can't figure it out, then don't think about it. Since he is changing for the better towards Yanran, then I just need to be happy for Yanran."

While eating supper, Shen Jiaojiao suddenly looked up after a while, "Is he plotting something? That's how it's played out on TV."

Lu Shize was amused by her, "Even if they are really plotting something, you can't help. Besides, she is the same age as you. What you can think of, she should be able to think of, and..."

"Besides, I have to believe that Yanran is capable of handling it herself, right? Well... she and Fang Zhi are both very smart. I like Yanran very much. She can think of many details. Lu Zhiheng should not be able to harm her." And taking a step back, she has her parents to help her, so nothing should go wrong.

After having supper, the aunts all went to Fuyi Building to rest. Lu Shize first held a meeting with the bodyguards to discuss how to arrange the shifts next and which time periods should pay special attention to prevention and control.

After instructing the bodyguard, the two went to the study and talked about the pages on the Internet today.

Lu Shize said that he had someone do it himself, hoping that the police would also think in this direction... Then, he told Shen Jiaojiao that her grandmother would be taken to City A tomorrow and would live there from now on. The bodyguards would protect them well, so she didn't have to worry.

Shen Jiaojiao nodded, but the man still pulled out a piece of pink paper and handed it to her. She took it and started to fold small flowers as usual.

After the folding was completed, I felt a little relieved. "Uncle, you are suspecting Gu Sheng's father, right?"

"I'm more than just a suspicion. It should be him. Even if I find some documents, I won't just ask someone to get them. I have to find a way to guide the police to investigate.

Everything must go directly through the hands of the public, so that the case can be truly opened up.”

"Besides, you are protecting me. If you take action, you are afraid that they will retaliate against me directly."

This is like being afraid of using the wrong weapon to kill a rat.

Why must the government take it? In fact, if my uncle goes to find it, as long as it is evidence, it should be usable. The main reason is that he wants to protect himself, so he has to be so "cautious" and hesitant.

Lu Shize gave a few more instructions, "Gu Guang and Gu Sheng are both very smart, so just pretend you know nothing. As for whether Gu Sheng knows about what happened back then, I have no idea, but if he wants to trick you, no matter what you say, the key is to pretend you know nothing.

In your understanding, your parents passed away unexpectedly, do you understand?"

The man reviewed the timeline with her again. When the Gu family left D County, Gu Sheng was already quite old. Even if he didn't know what exactly happened at home at that time, the more recent events developed, the more his father was exposed and the more actions he took.

Gu Sheng is a very suspicious person... Maybe he will take the initiative to find out what happened to his father. If I follow him... wouldn't it be...

Shen Jiaojiao's eyes suddenly lit up, and the man looked at her with a little confusion, "What's wrong?"

Shen Jiaojiao hurriedly shook her head and handed the pink flower in her hand over in panic, "No, it's okay, uncle, it's getting late, you should go to bed early, I will listen to you."

The man took the flower and then grabbed her wrist to stop her from leaving. "What were you thinking about just now? Don't act impulsively."

"No...no," Shen Jiaojiao felt guilty. She had never lied to her uncle before, so she quickly looked away.

But the man knew her too well, and if she did this, she would be lying.

He quickly reviewed everything they had just said, "Don't go looking for Gu Sheng. He has ulterior motives. You want to find out something through him, but he might harm you. Do you understand?"

"I..." Shen Jiaojiao wrinkled her nose, "You are too good, I only hid for a few seconds and you guessed it all. I thought that he might be curious and wanted to find out the reasons behind his father's possible abnormal behavior. So I thought of following his lead and trying to find out what I could get."

"Don't be like that. Because, whatever you can think of, they may also think of it.

For example, the father and son could also do the opposite, setting up a trap and putting on a show, and you would think you have tracked down something, and then, they would lure you into the trap and use a trick on you, and you would be caught in a trap, right…”

When Shen Jiaojiao heard this possibility, she immediately lost her temper, "Then, doesn't that mean they want to catch me in a trap? And you have protected me for so many years in vain..."

The man was very strong, especially at this moment, holding Shen Jiaojiao's wrist. She felt the pain and was thinking about reminding her uncle not to use so much force, but she saw the man's serious expression, looking at her only.

"Jiaojiao"···

"Ok?"

"Don't be distracted. What I'm saying now is very important. Your parents' case is much more important than mine. For so many years, we have been waiting for the day when the truth will come out.

But your safety is far more important than overturning the verdict, understand? Otherwise, I won’t be able to explain to your parents and grandma.”

Seeing her uncle's serious expression, Shen Jiaojiao nodded quickly, "I know. I won't follow Gu Sheng! I won't let them take advantage of this and harm me again."

“Well, you must remember that you are the most important.

Do you understand? You can’t put yourself in danger.”

"Ok".

"Then repeat it again, you are the most important."

Seeing that the man didn't seem to be joking, Shen Jiaojiao felt a little embarrassed. How could someone say that he was the most important?

But when he thought about the kind of people he and his uncle were facing, how the Gu family could harm his parents, and the matter of the body on the bridge pier, he knew that this was no joke.

"I will remember that I am the most important. I will never increase my own risk. Uncle, please trust me."
