Reborn in 85: Starting with a family split and becoming the richest man, the ungrateful wretch regre

Yao Lili glanced at Lu Yang helplessly; she really hadn't expected Guan Xiuqin to be so shameless.

Lu Yang walked to the window, opened it, and stood there looking down at Guan Xiuqin. He was stunned for a moment.

The last time he saw Guan Xiuqin in his previous life was when Lu Jianjun was dying of cancer in bed.

According to the timeline, it will happen 10 years from now.

Guan Xiuqin had black curly hair, wore a nylon cheongsam, and a maroon shawl, looking elegant and noble.

But at this moment, Guan Xiuqin was in a disheveled state, looking much older than when Lu Yang saw her ten years ago in his previous life.

The environment really can change a person.

Lu Yang couldn't help but feel a little emotional. He looked at Guan Xiuqin expressionlessly and asked, "How do you want me to let them off the hook?"

Guan Xiuqin looked up at Lu Yang, her eyes filled with fear.

Her lips trembled as she said, "Xiao Qing knows she was wrong. She even knelt down and begged you. What more do you want? Tell Shen Xuwen to let her go."

"And Xiao Yao, he was indeed angry and wanted to harm you, but didn't he not dare to come looking for you again afterward?"

"Don't let anyone investigate him anymore. He'll never be able to see the light of day again. Isn't this punishment enough?"

Lu Yang looked at her expressionlessly: "I've had someone re-investigate the coal mine west of Lujia Village from over 20 years ago."

Guan Xiuqin shuddered violently upon hearing this, but she feigned composure and asked, "What did you find out?"

Lu Yang scoffed, "Are you worried I'll find out something?"

Guan Xiuqin pretended to be calm: "Of course not. I'm also curious. So many years have passed, where exactly has your second uncle gone?"

"Don't you know best where my second uncle is?"

Guan Xiuqin immediately screamed hysterically, "How could I possibly know? He made me a widow for so many years. If I knew where he was, I would have dragged him out long ago."

Lu Yang nodded slightly: "It seems you don't know where my second uncle is. It's alright, I found the old man from the brick factory back then."

“This guy is a bit greedy, but money is the last thing I need. I bribed him to give me some clues.”

"This man said he had clues about my second uncle's whereabouts. He said my second uncle was already dead, and he could only help me find the body."

Guan Xiuqin's face was pale, and she clenched her hands tightly. After a long while, she said with red eyes, "If you don't want to help, fine, but why bring up your second uncle?"

"If you truly care about your second uncle, how could you treat his children like this?"

Lu Yang said coldly, "Lu Yao is not my second uncle's son."

Guan Xiuqin stared blankly at Lu Yang: "When did you find out?"

Lu Yang stared at him and said, word by word, "I knew about it before the family split up."

Guan Xiuqin took a deep breath; under the bright July sun, she only felt a chill running through her body.

Without saying a word, she turned and walked away, faster and faster until she started running. Her thin figure, like a crumpled rag, drifted away in the wind.

Lu Yang took out his mobile phone and instructed, "Hey buddy, follow Guan Xiuqin and don't let him see you."

The waiter responded, and Lu Yang immediately closed the window and went back to bed.

Yao Lili was somewhat stunned: "Guan Xiuqin didn't kill your second uncle, did she?"

Lu Yang looked up at the ceiling: "Even if he didn't kill her, she's still an accomplice."

Yao Lili felt a chill run down her spine. Sitting next to Lu Yang, she couldn't help but ask, "Could it be that your father and Guan Xiuqin conspired to kill your second uncle?"

Lu Yang thought for a moment, then shook his head and said, "It's unlikely."

"Although Lu Jianjun and my second uncle did not get along, it shouldn't be enough to make him kill my second uncle."

The two remained silent for a while, and did not continue the topic.

Three days later, Lu Yang's men sent out reported that they had called the police.

Guan Xiuqin dug up a male corpse behind a brick kiln next to Lujia Village.

The body had been completely reduced to bones, and Guan Xiuqin was caught on the spot.

She denied killing anyone, only saying that she knew Lu Jianmin, Lu Yang's second uncle, was buried there.

When Yao Lili learned about this, she was so frightened that she dropped her chopsticks on the ground and couldn't help but mutter, "I used to think that Guan Xiuqin was just a person with a sinister aura, but I never thought she could be so vicious."

Lu Yang said coldly, "You must assist the police in their investigation and find out whether Guan Xiuqin killed someone or whether she conspired with others to kill my second uncle."

After thinking for a moment, Lu Yang called Li Rongqing.

Tell him to tell Lu Jianjun that Guan Xiuqin killed his second uncle, and see how Lu Jianjun reacts.

After learning the whole story, Li Rongqing was shocked and immediately agreed.

A day later, he called to say that Lu Jianjun didn't believe it at all.

He felt that Guan Xiuqin wasn't that kind of person, and that Lu Jianming's death definitely had nothing to do with him.

Lu Yang thought about it and felt that this matter was probably unrelated to Lu Jianjun.

At this moment, Tian Zhaodi suddenly spoke up: "Actually, Guan Xiuqin had a good relationship with the brick kiln owner back then. He would bring meals to your second uncle and often chat with that brick kiln owner."

“Your second uncle has told her many times not to get too close to the brick kiln owner, and even not to deliver food to him.”

"But she wouldn't listen and kept delivering food, sometimes twice a day."

Lu Yang immediately sent people to investigate the owner of the brick kiln from back then. The assistant he sent to help investigate his second uncle's murder case said, "The police have already started investigating. The brick kiln owner's surname is Deng."

"Boss Deng made his fortune with the help of his wife. He is known for being henpecked. Over the years, the couple has always been very loving."

"Boss Deng has never been involved in any scandals, and his business has only grown bigger and bigger. However, he is very superstitious and always burns incense and prays to Buddha."

"He still keeps that small piece of land where the brick kiln is located. No matter how much money others offer, he refuses to sell it. He says that it's where he made his fortune and that it's of great significance to him."

"Guan Xiuqin couldn't hold on any longer and confessed that her affair with Boss Deng was discovered by Lu Jianmin, so the two of them killed him to keep quiet."

"That's why Guan Xiuqin and Boss Deng broke off contact and never had any contact again."

Lu Yang couldn't help but sneer, thinking that his second uncle was really unlucky.
