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

Madam Ji wore a pleased smile: "What, you don't agree?"

Ji Chiqian looked at her: "Do you think this is appropriate?"

“I don’t think there’s anything wrong with it. Anyway, you don’t like Miss Lu. I’ll be her sister and you can be Xiao Xingyue’s brother. That’s not bad for you.”

"..."

He didn't think there was anything good about it.

All he knew was that the woman was determined to take advantage of him.

Mrs. Ji continued, "If you have no objections, then let's leave it at that?"

"It's uncertain whether she can stay here. That woman never tells the truth. You'd better not believe her so easily."

Madam Ji sighed: "Since you have doubts, then go and investigate. Your grandmother doesn't have much time left. If Xiao Xingyue is with her, she will be happier."

“If those people knew that sending a little child could seduce you all, they wouldn’t have kept sending women to me all these years.”

"You little rascal, not just any child can be liked by us. Didn't you bring this kid back? Are you blaming us?"

Ji Chiqian was taken aback; it seemed to make sense.

But he would never let that woman become his aunt—dream on!

Just thinking about it makes me feel sick. Little Xingyue is so cute. How could she have such an annoying mother?

If it weren't for the fact that the mother and daughter looked somewhat alike, he would have doubted whether that woman was Xiaoxingyue's mother.

Madam Ji said, "Alright, don't think about it so much. The most important thing for you to take good care of your health right now is to focus on recovery."

Ji Chiqian leaned against the headboard without saying a word. After Madam Ji left, he saw the doll on the bedside table, picked it up, and squeezed it a couple of times.

These are things left behind by the little one.

Ji Chiqian thought for a moment and then called Gu Zifeng, but no one answered for a long time.

He switched to someone else and called Qin Yang directly.

Qin Yang responded quickly: "What's the matter?"

"What has Gu Zifeng been busy with lately? Why isn't he answering the phone? Is he still alive?"

After all, Gu Zifeng went to the United States to find out who was behind his scheme.

Qin Yang said calmly, "He's still alive, but his mental state isn't very good. He was almost kidnapped yesterday."

"What do you mean you were almost kidnapped? Are they that stupid?"

"I think they did it on purpose. It's like a cat playing with a mouse, you know?"

Qin Yang said in a low voice, "The other party is very discreet. Even after coming here, they haven't revealed anything. It's clear that they don't want to expose their identity and don't want Gu Zifeng to know who they are."

Ji Chiqian, holding his phone, said, "There are no problems domestically, which means the other party is indeed after Gu Zifeng."

"We've discussed this as well. For now, we can only find out who it is when they get impatient and tired of playing around."

At this moment, Ji Chiqian felt a little sorry for Gu Zifeng.

He said, "But if that's the case, it means the other party won't take Gu Zifeng's life. Let him stay abroad for a while longer, don't worry about him bringing trouble back to the country and affecting the company's operations."

"Yeah, he probably hasn't told you yet that he wants you to handle some company matters during this time before he comes back."

Ji Chiqian raised an eyebrow: "He does know how to order people around, but considering how miserable he is, I'll look after the company for him."

Ji Chiqian is suddenly becoming more and more interesting.

Gu Zifeng was suddenly targeted. A mother and daughter appeared beside him, and they looked very much like Lu Ning, even sharing the same name.

He began to suspect that this might be a setup targeting him and Gu Zifeng.

Is the person behind this trying to separate him from Gu Zifeng?

That's interesting. He'd like to see how things will unfold.

Ji Chiqian chatted with Qin Yang for a while and then hung up the phone.

Qin Yang was standing in a corner of a private banquet. When he looked up, he saw Chen Yu wearing a gorgeous evening gown, standing among the group of nobles, yet still neither humble nor arrogant, making her impossible to look away from.

A greasy man stood next to Chen Yu, fawning over her.

Qin Yang found this scene extremely jarring.

But Chen Yu handled the situation with ease, and even bid a friendly farewell to everyone after the banquet.

Qin Yang held back until Chen Yu got into the car before pulling her into his arms: "You flirt with a man in front of me? Do you think I'm dead?"

Chen Yu kissed Qin Yang's cheek directly: "Are you jealous?"

"if not?"

Chen Yu laughed out loud. Over the past few years, she had transformed into a completely different person and was no longer ashamed of her leg disability.

Qin Yang spoke up: "Speak, what news did you find out?"

She looked at Qin Yang: "See? You say you're jealous, but you know me best. That greasy guy next to me just now, he's met people from the Lu family before."

Upon hearing this, Qin Yang immediately became serious: "Are you sure?"

"Yes, I confirmed with a third party that he has met Lu Dongyou and it seems they have business dealings."

Chen Yu's expression became much more serious: "That's why I've been tolerating that greasy guy hanging around me all this time."

It was precisely because Qin Yang understood her that he had been holding back until she got into the car before questioning her.

"Have you found out the whereabouts of the Lu family?"

"In order not to alert them, I didn't ask any more questions, worried that the Lu family would notice and then disappear again like they did a few years ago."

Chen Yu had almost found the Lu family's whereabouts before, but because she was too anxious, the Lu family noticed her and she failed in the end.

This time, Chen Yu learned her lesson and decided to take it slow.

Qin Yang hadn't expected such a big gain: "But you came to this banquet to inquire about that nobleman, didn't you? Did you find anything?"

"We didn't get much out of it. That nobleman is very low-key and doesn't usually associate with people, so we couldn't find out anything about him. I'm also worried that he might have noticed something."

Chen Yu smiled and said, "But there was an unexpected gain today."

"Are you going to use your honey trap? I don't think that kid has any good intentions."

Qin Yang felt somewhat helpless, but they were all on the same side when it came to finding the Lu family.

Chen Yu hugged Qin Yang and said, "With you protecting me, what do I have to be afraid of?"

Qin Yang: "..."

There's really nothing we can do about her.

Chen Yu looked out the window at the scenery. It had been many years since she had seen Lu Ning. She wondered how Lu Ning was doing.

In short, she will definitely find Lu Ning in her lifetime.

The information Chen Yu gathered at the banquet quickly reached Lu Ning's hands.

She lay on the large bed in the Ji family home, eating while holding her phone.

She said casually, "That woman's name is Chen Yu, right?"

"That's right, she's the daughter of the 'News King,' and she's currently in charge of the Chen family. She has connections with the Chen family in various countries. But I don't know why she's been investigating us."

"That's strange. Let's hold back for now and have someone keep an eye on that woman."

Lu Ning hung up the phone. "Is your name Chen Yu?"
