After Black Moonlight revealed her true feelings, everyone panicked.

Lu Lingjun looked at his sister, whose eyes were burning with desire, and calmed down for three seconds.

The Lu family are all intelligent people, except for Lu Lingbai, who has been a bit dim-witted since childhood.

“I didn’t say I was going to call the police.” Lu Lingjun pressed his temples. “I’ve already talked to Aunt Ye about this. The money will be deducted from her salary, and the remaining salary will be sent to her daughter for medical treatment every month.”

Lu Lingbo lowered his head heavily: "Big brother, I'm sorry, I misunderstood you!"

"That's it?" Lu Sijian said, somewhat disappointed.

Lu Lingjun looked at her again, his voice gentle: "Ah Jian, I don't disagree with giving Wang Ma a red envelope. It's just that I think it would be more reasonable to reward Wang Ma for being a housekeeper, wouldn't that be a raise?"

Lu Lingbai was somewhat surprised. Let Wang Ma be the housekeeper? If it were before, he would definitely have objected, thinking that Wang Ma was unworthy and that his older brother must be biased towards his younger sister.

But now he actually thinks it's not bad.

Even though I felt sorry for Sister Ye, it didn't really affect me much.

Lu Sijian: "But I don't think Wang Ma is suitable."

[What a joke! The Lu family is going bankrupt sooner or later. Why would I let Wang Ma go down with you?]

[A reward? You've got some nerve!]

"It's too late, I'm going back to rest. Goodnight." Lu Sijian turned and left, making it clear from her attitude that she disagreed with the suggestion.

"Young Master, the medicine is ready." A servant came over with the medicine.

Lu Lingjun finished his medicine and looked thoughtfully at the dregs at the bottom of the bowl.

So the Lu family's crisis has not truly been resolved?

Stomach problems are probably not the key cause of cancer, otherwise she wouldn't have been so calm.

No, there's another possibility: the bottle of medicine she intercepted was the key. Without the medicine, her stomach ailment would never get better.

He was usually good at waiting, but today he found himself becoming restless and impatient.

Lu Lingjun put down the medicine bowl and continued to immerse himself in his work, gradually calming down.

[Beep, a change in character's favorability detected; dislike value +1]

Lu Sijian was startled when she heard the system notification, but she didn't take it too seriously.

She didn't even bother to check her level of disgust; she just turned over and fell asleep.

A few days later, the article about the television interview was published and also appeared in the local daily newspaper.

Although print media has declined, daily newspapers still have a great influence, and many people are discussing this matter. Some even have several newspapers on their coffee tables at home.

There are tons of positive likes on the WeChat official account.

Some people have raised questions.

Why would you say you'd be willing to take the suspect down with you? It seems you're addicted to being a hero. Don't you think about how selfish you are? Your fiancé and brothers love you so much; have you considered their feelings?

I find it all very fake. How could anyone truly be so selfless?

[After reviewing the details, it appears the suspect didn't kidnap all four girls at once; he kidnapped them one by one and brought them to that abandoned building. It just goes to show that if he really wanted to kill, the first girl would have been dead long ago.]

I really feel sorry for the suspect. Even after being reborn, he still couldn't escape his inevitable death. What grudge could he have held against him?

You can do it all over again, but the suspect has no chance. He's dead. Can you please stop exploiting the deceased?

[Anyway, I don't think the crime warrants death... Is there really no issue of excessive self-defense here?]

[I suddenly have a bold idea: If someone wanted to kill someone to cover it up, could they deliberately provoke that person into a frenzy, kidnap them, and then pretend to be righteous and jump off a building with that person? Wouldn't that be a flawless cover-up?]

The last comment was followed by a bunch of comments like "Holy crap, this is terrifying when you think about it!"

He Wenyuan found the hypothesis interesting when he saw the comment and couldn't help but reply.

[You know what, this really sounds like something Lu Sijian would do. She's always been quite scheming.]

A short while later, he found himself added to a group chat.

A few minutes later, he figured out what was going on.

The group admin, whose identity is unknown, felt that the suspect's death was too pitiful, and the group was created to speak out for that suspect.

Everyone in the group had a lot of opinions about Lu Sijian; they were all like-minded.

Someone tagged He Wenyuan, asking, "Bro, do you know Lu Biao? Do you know what kind of person she used to be?"

He Wenyuan didn't care about the suspect at all, but since everyone disliked Lu Sijian, they could become friends.

He chatted with everyone in great interest.

Then I took screenshots of some of the comments and sent them to Zhao Ke. Everyone dislikes Lu Sijian, so we can discuss it together.

When Zhao Ke saw those screenshots, she couldn't sit still any longer and went to find Lou Xiao.

"Brother Xiao, I really don't understand what Lu Sijian is thinking. Can't she just live a peaceful life?"

Zhao Ke had always felt indignant on behalf of his brother Xiao, but Lu Sijian had never truly understood him.

"Does she just want to be a hero and cause a huge uproar online? But the problem is you're about to have your engagement party."

"She knows perfectly well that you grew up without a home and all you want is one, yet she still says such irresponsible things. Isn't that going too far?"

"That's enough, stop talking!" Lou Xiao shouted at him.

In fact, he had read the interview report two hours earlier.

Lu Sijian's answer wasn't surprising to him, after all, she became a hero because of this feat.

What he feared was that she would develop a path dependency and believe that she was always right.

That was the biggest nightmare of his life.

Lu Sijian also noticed the differences between the interview transcripts, but after thinking about it, she felt it wasn't a big problem.

She wouldn't choose to die together with the suspect because she knew that Mu Liangyue was protected by the protagonist's luck and wouldn't be in any danger.

But if it were the original owner, she might not know how the other party would choose.

"Jian, don't worry about those minor online uproar." Lu Lingjun made a point of coming home early that evening to be with his sister.

"This matter has already been settled. Those people were just trying to get attention. I can just have them deleted."

Lu Sijian gave Lu Lingjun a meaningful look.

[Dude, you've seen the video, why are you so sure those comments are okay?]

It's not surprising that dissenting voices emerge in any situation, but those statements were clearly organized and premeditated, weren't they?

Just like those videos suddenly appearing in your hands, it was all done by someone.

Lu Lingjun frowned. He had already dealt with the video as needed, so how could there be a problem?

Lu Sijian ignored him and changed her clothes to go out.

Lu Lingjun orchestrated this publicity campaign so that she could successfully enter Yuncheng University.

However, she was going to accompany Lou Xiao to a banquet today, and the host of the banquet was Lou Xiao's uncle.

Lou Xiao was abandoned by his parents at a young age. He doesn't have many relatives, but each one of them is a benefactor on his life's journey.

Lou Xiao's uncle was like that. Years ago, he was abroad. After returning to China, he overpowered the group's veterans and helped Lou Xiao successfully take control of the board of directors.

Lu Sijian didn't dress up deliberately. If the He family was originally on her side, then her uncle would be a different story.

The other party is an expert at spotting manipulative women; they saw through her hypocritical and innocent nature from the very beginning.

Moreover, this uncle has a close relationship with Mu Liangyue, so he cannot be easily bribed by her.
