Upon hearing Jiang Mian's words, both Lu Hong and Yan Ke were shocked.

Yan Ke, in particular, looked at Jiang Mian as if she had seen a ghost.

Jiang Mian made no attempt to hide it, and even the smallest details in her expression revealed a clear sense of familiarity.

Yan Ke's eyes even gradually showed a hint of fear and apprehension.

He stammered, "What...what do you mean? Stop...playing tricks here!"

Lu Hong, standing to the side, also looked very unpleasant, his brows furrowed. "What are you trying to do, acting all mysterious? You don't actually think you're her just because your name sounds the same and you look alike, do you?"

Lu Hong sneered, "I think you're addicted to being a stand-in! You're obsessed, aren't you? That's why you're thinking of stealing someone else's child and sucking up to their parents?"

Jiang Mian was not annoyed by these words, but looked at them with a half-smile and said, "Say what you will."

She glanced at Yan Ke and Lu Hong's car, "Just don't follow me anymore."

Jiang Mian frowned, her expression displeased. "Lu Bozhou didn't come with us, and you...?"

Although she didn't continue speaking, Yan Ke and Lu Hong could easily tell from her words what she was implying.

Lu Bozhou didn't come along, so what are these two doing following us?

Before Jiang Mian turned around to get into the car, she stopped and looked at them.

"Do you think Lu Bozhou and Lu Chaochi aren't very smart, and that the Jiang family members are all stupid?"

After saying this, Jiang Mian didn't wait for their answer and got into the car. "Xiao Yu, drive."

Jiang Yu floored the gas pedal and blasted the car forward. "They won't follow us again, will they?"

"Probably not." Jiang Mian glanced back indifferently. "When people do something wrong, they feel guilty and afraid of ghosts knocking on their door."

Yan Ke and Lu Hong stood there, Yan Ke's face was deathly pale, and she was tightly gripping Lu Hong's sleeve.

"What...what did she mean just now? Was she trying to say...that she was that woman?"

Indeed, just as Jiang Mian said to Jiang Yu, some people who have done something wrong will feel guilty and afraid of ghosts knocking on their door.

Even if you don't seem scared on ordinary days, that's because you haven't seen it yet. If you really see something strange, that's what will happen.

I bet he's more of a coward than anyone else.

Yan Ke's situation is like this. In recent years, Jiang Mian's name has often been like Voldemort's, and she can't mention it.

That's why she's been trying to get Lu Bozhou out of this mess and find someone to start a new life with for the past few years.

It's as if, once Lu Bozhou gets out of this situation, she will also be able to get out of it.

Perhaps because of her guilty conscience, Jiang Mian and Jiang Mian's names sound exactly the same, and the two even look very similar.

Therefore, from the very beginning, Yan Ke was full of resistance towards her.

"Stop talking nonsense, what kind of mystical and baseless things are you talking about?" Although Lu Hong was also a little uneasy because of what Jiang Mian had just said, his voice was still calmer.

"Don't overthink it, go ask Bo Zhou first." Lu Hong's voice was low and stern. "He's been insane for five years! How long is he going to stay insane? What's so important about official business! Can it be more important than our son!"

Dingsheng Group, President's Office.

Lu Bozhou looked... well, to put it another way, "haggard" would be an exaggeration.

He still maintained his meticulous and elite demeanor, his hair neatly styled, and his expensive bespoke suit was still impeccably tailored.

But there was an indescribable feeling, as if he was being drained dry from the inside out.

Rather than saying haggard, it's more accurate to say withered. And it's not about appearance, but about the soul.

Lu Hong and Yan Ke assumed that he was just too busy with work and that Jiang Mian was causing him all this trouble, leaving him in such a chaotic state.

But Song Xun, who was beside him, knew very well that it had nothing to do with whether he was busy or not at work.

Over the past few years, everyone knows that Lu Bozhou is a workaholic.

While it's not uncommon to find people busier than they are now, it's not unheard of either.

At that time, Lu Bozhou was still deeply mired in a state of madness after losing his wife. Song Xun felt that Lu Bozhou's state was similar to his current state.

Therefore, it is clear that Lu Bozhou's current state is probably not related to his busy work schedule.

It was purely because of Jiang Mian's matter that caused the trouble.

When Lu Bozhou heard Lu Hong's question, he simply raised his eyes and glanced at Lu Hong indifferently.

His eyes, bloodshot and indifferent, held a detached gaze, and his voice was even more indifferent.

His tone was completely flat, cold and numb.

"Right now, this part of the work is indeed more important than Lu Chaochi's matter."

"You..." Lu Hong's voice trembled with rage, "You madman! You scoundrel! Do you have no heart at all?! That's your son, your own son! You just handed him over to her?!"

Lu Bozhou had already lowered his eyes to continue reviewing the documents, his voice still cold and indifferent.

“Lu Chaochi isn’t stupid. She’s good to him, that’s why he’s willing to stay with her.” Lu Bozhou didn’t look at them anymore. “Stop worrying about things that don’t concern you. Song Xun, see them out.”

"Wait!" Yan Ke suddenly waved her hand, looked up at Song Xun and said, "You go out first, I have something to say to Bo Zhou."

Song Xun glanced at Lu Bozhou, and seeing that Lu Bozhou did not seem to object, he left the office.

Yan Ke's face was still pale as she stared intently at Lu Bozhou.

Her gaze was fixed on him, her lips trembling. "Did she also tell you that... that she said she was Jiang Mian?"

Judging from the syllables alone, this statement seems somewhat nonsensical. Who else could she be but Jiang Mian?

However, as soon as Yan Ke said this, Lu Bozhou, who had been too lazy to even glance at them and was only looking down at the documents, raised his eyes and looked at them.

"Did she tell you?" Lu Bozhou asked.

Upon hearing this, Yan Ke's already unpleasant expression turned even more so, and she couldn't even utter a word.

Lu Hong finally asked, "What...what do you mean by this? Bo Zhou, you don't actually believe this, do you? Can't you be a little more scientific?"

Lu Hong said urgently, "She just knows what you care about! That's why she said that on purpose! She's deliberately trying to lie to you!"

Lu Bozhou's expression was indifferent, and his tone was perfunctory, "Yes, yes, I didn't expect you to believe me. If there's nothing else, you can go out. I have work to do."

Yan Ke was already speechless with shock when she heard what Lu Bozhou had just said.

It was only at this moment that he seemed to suddenly regain his ability to speak.

Not only that, but he also regained his mobility, as if he had experienced a final burst of energy before death.

He nimbly took a few big steps forward and then grabbed Lu Bozhou's hand!

"Bo Zhou, why don't you marry Ya Wei? Haven't you always liked her? Anyway, she's back in the country now, so why bother with so much trouble for a substitute?"
