After Black Moonlight revealed her true feelings, everyone panicked.

The following morning and afternoon, all the investigation materials were delivered to Sheng Yunchao's desk.

Because the whole incident unfolded in such a comical and farcical manner, many people would subconsciously underestimate these robbers and overlook their true danger.

It's true that he's not very bright, but it's also true that he's not very human.

Several people were arrested and imprisoned by Yao Wan back then because they bullied their classmates, causing them to become disabled.

Now that he's out of prison, he's unwilling to walk the straight path and keeps getting into crooked ways.

Unfortunately, not only did he fail to make a lot of money, he also became increasingly strapped for cash... and then he saw Lou Xiao's news.

They met Yao Wan's son back then. Didn't you earnestly advise us to be good people? Now that your son is so rich, he should help us.

But since they couldn't get close to Lou Xiao, they could only target the people around him.

He wasn't surprised that Mu Liangyue was being targeted. If she had been more mindful of boundaries and hadn't moved into that large apartment, none of this would have happened.

If Yao Yao goes to that neighborhood, she should be able to recognize that it used to be her sister's residence.

To support her husband's career, Yao Wan sold the house years ago. Many years after her death, her son bought the house back.

It was used to keep a beautiful and delicate woman hidden away. How could this not make others think?

Moreover, Mu Liangyue has been entangled with Lou Xiao for the past three years, and the two often go in and out together.

Lou Xiao said he was disgusted, but he was very domineering and wouldn't allow anyone to bully Mu Liangyue.

These people pretended to approach Mu Liangyue, acting pitiful and saying that they had suffered cold looks and couldn't find a job or eat after being released from prison. Mu Liangyue immediately gave them 10,000 yuan.

The group was shocked. They had investigated and found that Mu Liangyue's family background was worse than theirs.

Several people were so jealous that their eyes turned red. They thought, "They're so rich, why are they giving them ten thousand as a beggar's reward?"

After discussing it, they decided to take the risk and do something big.

"They asked Mu Liangyue about the price of the Black Swan cake, and Mu Liangyue said it was around 100,000 yuan, which really shocked them."

Guan Yu finally understood. "Miss Lu deliberately brought up the Black Swan cake to provoke them, right?"

Black Swan cakes are indeed expensive, sometimes costing hundreds of thousands or even millions of dollars.

But it's not sold in the store; it's made to order. The size isn't that of a regular cake, and the ingredients are very expensive, so the price is naturally shocking.

Actually, the store's main products only cost a few thousand yuan, so they're not completely unaffordable for ordinary people.

Mu Liangyue didn't know how she came up with the idea of ​​spending over 100,000 yuan. Did she eat gold?

"Could Mu Liangyue have done this on purpose?" Guan Yu couldn't help but be suspicious; it was all too coincidental.

Sheng Yunchao: "No."

Mu Liangyue's kindness is not feigned; she would never bring danger to Lu Sijian, as that would not fit her image as someone who repays kindness.

But he also discovered that this Miss Mu was probably a little mentally challenged, and she really enjoyed the scenario of kindness being betrayed.

She was probably still heartbroken at the time, thinking that Lu Sijian had finally revealed her true colors and was deliberately making things difficult for her.

Since it's meant to be difficult, the Black Swan cake must be extremely expensive, so expensive that she can't afford it and would be criticized for being extravagant and wasteful.

Lu Sijian probably even considered this point.

Mu Liangyue was bound to get a beating no matter what, but the kidnappers were tempted by greater profits and left in a hurry without really hurting her.

"I'm so lucky to have her favor time and time again," Sheng Yunchao said with a smile.

Sometimes, he couldn't help but feel jealous of this good fortune, to the point of being twisted with jealousy.

-

Mu Liangyue also felt very lucky.

Although she inexplicably encountered a terrible kidnapping, fortunately the kidnappers gave up halfway through because they saw there was no money to be made from her.

She and Zhao Ke only suffered a little, but it was nothing compared to everything else.

Mu Liangyue decided not to call the police at that time, and also asked Zhao Ke not to call the police.

"You said you know one of them?" Zhao Ke asked curiously as he drank the chicken soup that Mu Liangyue had brought him in the ward.

"Yes, they should have been released from prison recently. They were young and didn't know any better, so they committed some crimes and went to jail. Now that they're out, they're having trouble finding jobs because of their criminal records."

Mu Liangyue explained the situation of encountering the scorpion at the restaurant that day.

Zhao Ke: "I understand. It's because you helped that scorpion that they let us go."

He had prepared for the worst, but he never expected that the criminals would suddenly give up out of mercy.

If that's the case, then everything makes sense.

Mu Liangyue lowered her gaze and said softly, "When I helped them, I just hoped that society could be more tolerant and accept them again. I didn't think much about it. I didn't expect him to remember this and to plead for us on our behalf."

"Since they still have good intentions, I cannot be ruthless and kill them all. I hope you can understand."

Zhao Ke was touched: "How could I not understand? I will not let you down."

Mu Liangyue gently bit her lower lip: "Actually, I also have my own selfish reasons. I don't want Mr. Lou to think that I'm putting on a show again."

"Xiao-ge was just angry, that's why he said that. Don't overthink it," Zhao Ke comforted him.

After he got out yesterday, he tried to call Lou Xiao to explain the situation, but Lou Xiao said directly, "I don't want to listen."

Zhao's parents were not in the country during this period, and he did not dare to tell his family about his injury.

Once her parents find out, they will inevitably blame Mu Liangyue, accusing her of dragging their son down with them.

They didn't know who had instigated them, but they actually thought Mu Liangyue was promiscuous and even tried to persuade him not to be misled.

Zhao Ke found it absurd at the time; Mu Liangyue was clearly so innocent and kind...

The one who can ruin a woman's reputation with something like this is usually another woman.

Suddenly, a thought struck him, and he remembered the misunderstanding from that day. He felt as if there was an invisible hand pushing the misunderstanding to happen.

If it's true, then all of this is terrifying.

Needless to say, the other party's purpose was to destroy Mu Liangyue, make her be suspected by everyone of orchestrating the whole thing, and thus be despised.

He didn't need to think to guess who was behind it.

After finishing the chicken soup, Zhao Ke thought to himself that he must investigate the matter as soon as possible and not let Mu Liangyue suffer an injustice.

-

Lu Lingjun arranged for his two younger brothers to take Lu Sijian out to relax, but in the end, the trip did not take place.

Because Lu Lingchen fell ill.

To fit the character, he had been dieting for a long time and was already somewhat malnourished. He also worked overtime filming late into the night to meet the deadline, which led to him being brutally beaten by the thugs...

He successfully got himself into the hospital.

"I'm sorry, I can't go with my sister to cheer her up." Lu Lingchen, dressed in a hospital gown, looked pale on the hospital bed. "You can just leave me here; I'll have my assistant take care of me."

Lu Lingbai disagreed: "How can that be? You're in this state, how can I be at ease?"

"But what about my sister's trip to clear her head?"

Lu Lingbo hesitated for a moment, then turned to look at Lu Sijian.

Why are you looking at me? Look at the person who caused the problem.

He's clearly using his illness to gain favor, and he's even trying to morally blackmail me.
