Upon hearing the name 'Gu Keke', alarm bells rang in Lu Han's mind.

If Gu Keke didn't know Lu Yi, how could it be such a coincidence that she got on his electric scooter and helped him escape?

But how did Lu Yi become acquainted with Gu Keke when he himself had only met her a few times?

Filled with questions, Lu Han asked gently, "Is Miss Coco alright?"

Family scandals should not be aired in public!

Gu Huainan has always remained tight-lipped about questions concerning his younger sister.

Before hanging up, he hesitated and said in a low voice, "Lu Han, I want to ask you about someone..."

Lu Han's heart skipped a beat. She threw a bracelet into the pile of luxury goods that covered half the bed and sat up straight.

Could he not know Lu Yi's identity?

That shouldn't be the case; even Lin Mengmeng only knows that Lu Yi is her sworn brother.

Moreover, I had explained it to her carefully.

It is said that Lu Yi, this adopted brother, is out there messing around in society, not doing anything productive, and all he does is cause trouble all day long.

It was precisely because he was not respectable that he was marginalized by the Lu family.

Lin Mengmeng naturally believed it to be true.

Therefore, Lu Han was certain that she wouldn't tell anyone else.

Caught off guard by the question, Lu Han was unsure of herself, but her sharp tongue remained as eloquent as ever!

"Brother Huainan, there's no need for such formalities between us. Just tell me, and I'll find it for you in no time if I know anyone!"

Gu Huainan had no hope whatsoever.

He casually replied, "Lu Xiaoman."

Lu... Xiaoman?

Lu Han scratched the itchy wound on his head.

All the boys in the Lu family have single-character names, and all the girls have the character "Bao" in the middle of their names. I've never heard of anyone named "Xiaoman".

This name sounds so petty!

But Lu Han was more cautious and didn't refuse outright.

"Brother Huainan, I don't know him, but I can ask around for you. However, could I ask if he is a man or a woman, and what do you want with him?"

You need a reason to look for someone!

Just like Fan Tong sought him out, it was to exploit the Lu family for their own gain.

He deliberately caused trouble for Lu Yi in order to make him back down and completely give up his status as the young master of the Lu family.

The fact that the Gu family, with their extensive network, still needs to ask him for information speaks volumes.

This means that the person is either in a high position of power and not easily offended, or just one of the masses, making it as difficult to find as finding a needle in a haystack.

Who would want to go through all that trouble and do something pointless!

Gu Huainan calmed down and said, "I don't know his gender, I only know that he is very important to Keke."

Is it important to Gu Keke?

No, isn't Gu Keke currently hooking up with Lu Yi?

"Brother Huainan, do you mean that Gu Keke doesn't know Lu Yi, and that she mistook Lu Yi for Lu Xiaoman that day?"

Gu Huainan was taken aback.

He hadn't even considered this possibility!

Lu Han's reminder made her realize why Lu Yi abandoned her halfway through the journey, and why Gu Keke insisted on clinging to Lu Yi.

It seems that's really the case!

The crux of all the problems lies with Lu Yi.

If we can find Lu Yi and ask him if he has any twin brothers or sisters, Gu Keke's heartache might be resolved.

...

Liang Shiyue's mother prepared a table full of dishes.

After Lu Yi entered the room, she said she was a bit busy with work and left as an excuse.

Liang Shiyue smiled and pulled him to sit down, then poured him three drinks.

"My mom was worried that you two would feel uncomfortable with her at home. Now it's all good, you can eat and drink to your heart's content!"

Lin Xiaoya couldn't help but feel happy when she saw Lu Yi.

She felt very sorry about this.

He lowered his head, picked up a piece of pork rib, and put it in Liang Shiyue's bowl.

He indicated that he would let Liang Shiyue eat first and that he had no intention of taking the food.

Lu Yi could easily see Lin Xiaoya's discomfort, so he took a sip of his drink.

"A group of thugs went to the store today..."

What!

The two women were startled.

Liang Shiyue had noticed the bruises on the back of his hand long ago, but based on the principle of "I won't ask unless he tells me," she didn't take the initiative to ask. Unexpectedly, he spoke up first.

Lin Xiaoya looked at him openly and honestly, "And then?"

Lu Yi brandished his fist.

“I told the store manager to call the police first, then I had the staff record video and check the surveillance footage.”

"They're not very shrewd. I only said a few words to provoke them, and they started smashing things..."

"He's probably having tea with his uncle right now. Don't worry, I've already applied for the surveillance system to be connected to the police station. Anyone who dares to cause trouble won't get away with it!"

Liang Shiyue got up and went to her room to get her first-aid kit.

"Are you injured?"

Lin Xiaoya grabbed Lu Yi's hand, her voice trembling with nervousness.

Realizing she had crossed the line, she hurriedly let go as if she had been electrocuted, blushing as she turned and sat back down in her seat.

Liang Shiyue pretended not to see, helped Lu Yi apply the disinfectant, and gently blew on it.

"Two fists can't fight four hands. Don't try to fight like that again. If they bring weapons, you'll be the one who suffers!"

"Here, have some pig liver. My mom said you don't look too good, you might be anemic, so she made this especially for you!"

Lu Yi is meticulous.

I had already noticed the hint of displeasure hidden in Liang Shiyue's eyes.

He didn't want to become the culprit who ruined the girls' friendship, so he calmly reached out and shook hands with Liang Shiyue and Lin Xiaoya respectively.

The two were puzzled.

One looked surprised, the other even more surprised!

They said in unison, "Lu Yi, you..."

Lu Yi said in a serious tone, "I'm quitting!"

The atmosphere in the living room froze instantly.

After a while, Lin Xiaoya burst into laughter, laughing so hard she could hardly breathe.

Liang Shiyue angrily punched Lu Yi's shoulder.
