After Miss Lu became the only one to enjoy the limelight, her six brothers knelt down and begged for

Chen Yu nodded, a hint of surprise in her eyes: "How did you know?"

Of course Lu Ning knew.

PZ Company has set up such a big scheme and played such a big game. It's only six months away from the end. Why would they spit out the fat meat they've already eaten?

Lu Ning coughed, of course, she couldn't say these things directly to Chen Yu.

She began, "I've discussed this with Ji Chiqian. Many wealthy women in the elite circles have invested in PZ Company. It's a very sophisticated scam."

Chen Yu's expression finally changed: "I can't actually tell either, but I trust your judgment. But my lawyer and my relatives in the Chen family disagree with my decision to withdraw from the investment now, which would result in a loss of ten million."

Chen Yu has been dealing with the investment with PZ Company for the past two days. It was her aunt who handled the matter, but her aunt was unwilling to withdraw the investment and even brought in Chen's relatives to persuade her.

After listening to Chen Yu's words, Lu Ning said, "Your aunt's relationship with you is so bad, she probably wishes you would lose ten million, so why doesn't she agree?"

Chen Yu was stunned: "I'm curious too, but after all, she was the one who led this investment, so I guess she felt embarrassed."

"I don't think your aunt probably took kickbacks. Usually, these kinds of scams pay a lot of money for recruiting people. Your aunt lost a lot of money investing in Lu's Company before, so she should be short of money, which is why she took the kickbacks."

In order to prevent the kickback issue from being exposed, Chen Yu must not terminate his investment in PZ Company now.

Thinking of this, Chen Yu showed a look of disgust: "My aunt doesn't pretend to treat me anymore. When there are no outsiders around, she's like a completely different person."

Now Chen Yu realized that this was her aunt's true nature.

Lu Ning continued, "We plan to investigate secretly. I suspect that Qin Xiang's mother is also a member of PZ Company."

Lu Ning recounted the things she had discussed with Ji Chiqian and the others.

Chen Yu nodded: "The reason I told others that I needed the money was because you were in trouble and I wanted to help you."

“I know, that means we haven’t been exposed, and the other side probably hasn’t suspected anything. We need to secretly gather evidence to avoid alerting them, which would cause them to close in prematurely and we would suffer heavy losses.”

“I didn’t expect Aunt Ji and Aunt Gu to be involved in the investment as well. Oh, and maybe my aunt is involved too. She has quite a bit of savings of her own.”

These wealthy ladies were originally rich heiresses who had considerable assets when they got married, and with various investments, they naturally had a lot of money in their hands.

But who would complain about having too much? They'd definitely want to make money from money.

Chen Yu: "Alright, I'll wait for you guys to discuss what to do together. I won't do anything to avoid alerting them."

"Don't worry, we will definitely get all the money back."

Lu Ning felt that since Qin Xiang's mother was also involved in the scam, she had to expose the investment fraud.

The next day, after finishing her class, Lu Ning contacted Lu Nanfeng directly.

After all, a week has passed. Have they gotten anything out of the Lu family? If not, then they should hand the person over to her.

When Lu Nanfeng received Lu Ning's call, he guessed what she wanted to ask.

Lu Nanfeng said, "We've gotten some information out of you. Do you want to go home for a bit?"

Lu Ning: "Is there anything we can't say over the phone?"

"There are other things related to Qin Xiang's child."

After hearing this, Lu Ning asked, "Could it be that the Gu family has really come to do a paternity test?"

"Yes."

"Is the child really Gu Yan's?"

"If you have time, come back and we can discuss it together."

Lu Ning thought for a moment. The child was still alive. Would Qin Xiang's mother just stand by and do nothing about it?

We might be able to think of a solution regarding this child.

Lu Ning agreed to go back to the Lu family villa that evening.

Chen Guoguo overheard Lu Ning on the phone: "The Lu family is making excuses to send you back again, isn't they?"

"It doesn't matter."

Chen Guoguo was a little angry: "They're really shameless. They just talk about making it up to you. They don't give you a single coin, and they keep forcing you to go back for dinner. Do they think that's enough to make up for it?"

Lu Ning smiled and said, "Alright, don't be angry. I already know what kind of people they are."

Even if her brothers from the Lu family offered her monetary compensation, she wouldn't accept it.

She couldn't wait to sever all ties with her brothers from the Lu family.

It's best to avoid any involvement whatsoever.

When Lu Ning was about to return to the Lu family home, she received a call from Ji Chiqian. The man's voice was somewhat hoarse and tired.

She could tell that Ji Chiqian was very busy and tired.

She spoke up, "Hello, who is this?"

"it's me."

Lu Ning deliberately retorted, "Who are you?"

Ji Chiqian chuckled softly: "I'm your boyfriend."

"Oh, it's my boyfriend. He didn't reply to my messages yesterday. I thought you had disappeared."

"There was an international conference last night, and I've been busy ever since."

When Lu Ning heard him say that, she immediately felt a pang of heartache and softened her tone, "Now that you're done with your work, have something to eat and rest for a while."

"Okay, what did you do today?"

"I'm in school, preparing for final exams. After all, I'm a top student, it would be so embarrassing to fail."

Lu Ning, holding the phone, said, "You should get some rest."

"So you're not angry?"

Why would I be angry? I was just teasing you.

Lu Ning had been busy at Maple Leaf Company for a week, so she could understand Ji Chiqian's busy work schedule.

Seeing how tired Ji Chiqian was, she didn't mention that she was going back to the Lu family that night.

After hanging up the phone, she drove straight back to the Lu Family Manor Villa.

As she entered the hall, the new butler quickly handed her hot tea: "It's cold outside, Miss, have some hot tea to warm yourself up."

Lu Ning took a sip: "It tastes good."

She was very satisfied with the new housekeeper; he was perceptive and knew who the real owner of the Lu family villa was.

After all, the villa is now in her name.

The newly arrived butler respectfully brought over some snacks and fruit: "Miss, please have some to tide you over."

"Okay, has anything unusual happened at home recently?"

The housekeeper quickly replied, "I heard that the Gu family came to have a paternity test done on that child. They originally wanted to clarify that they had no relation to the child, but they didn't expect that the child really is from the Gu family."

This time, it was Lu Ning's turn to be surprised.

"So the child really is Gu Yan's."

Lu Ning felt a little sad. If Qin Xiang hadn't died, she might have been able to live a good life because of this child.

Unfortunately, Qin Xiang died.

The housekeeper continued, "After the Gu family learned of the results, they suspected that the Lu family had tampered with the paternity test. So the Gu family took the samples themselves for another paternity test, and the results are out today."

Before Lu Ning could ask anything, she saw the Lu family members walk in through the door.

She even got home later than her!

Lu Ning looked at Lu Nanfeng: "What were the results of the paternity test?"
