As soon as Lu Jinghuai finished speaking, Song's father on the other side of the phone seemed to be about to continue explaining something but interrupted him directly.
"Uncle Song, I really hope that those things are just misunderstandings, but I also received something this time...Uncle Song, if you believe that the innocent will be cleared, then there is no need to say more. Let's wait for the results first."
Lu Jinghuai's tone was a bit tougher this time, and Song's father's expression froze. He began to doubt whether Lu Jinghuai really had something on his hand.
What evidence is there?
Is the evidence related to Lu Yingqian's disappearance, or is it related to the car accident that happened to the Lu couple?
However, before Song's father could think clearly, he heard Lu Jinghuai continue.
"Uncle Song, since there's nothing else, I'll hang up first. I have something else to do here. Yanyan is pregnant and can't leave without someone."
After saying that, Lu Jinghuai hung up the phone without waiting for Song's father to say anything.
Song's father was an elder after all, and it was the first time that Lu Jinghuai hung up the phone so directly. He felt humiliated and his face was dark at this moment.
However, he became even more uneasy. Lu Jinghuai's attitude towards him made him more certain that Lu Jinghuai must have some evidence.
But he thought he had handled both incidents well, so how could he find evidence?
In an instant, Song's father thought of the missing Song Jingya again. Song Jingya had opened his safe. Did Song Jingya leave any evidence at that time?
This time when Song Jingya went to Country F to find Lu Jinghuai, why didn’t Lu Jinghuai show up at his wedding? Had they already met? Did Song Jingya give anything to Lu Jinghuai?
In order to please Lu Jinghuai, Song's father had no doubt that Song Jingya could do those things.
At this time, Song Jingya’s disappearance may not necessarily mean that she was really missing. It is very likely that she hid to escape him.
Song's father's expression became increasingly grim. He regretted that he had been too kind to his daughter Song Jingya. He should have controlled her when Song Jingya secretly told Lu Jinghuai and Lu Yingqian the news, otherwise he wouldn't be so passive now.
Song's father took a deep breath, dialed a number, and directly instructed the person on the other end of the phone: "Country F, increase the number of people to find Song Jingya."
…
After Lu Jinghuai hung up the phone, Lin Yan couldn't help it anymore and started complaining.
"The Song family is really shameless. If others didn't know, they would really think we wronged him. They are really good at pretending."
Lin Yan's last three words of evaluation made Lu Jinghuai chuckle. He held Lin Yan's hand tighter again, but his expression became serious.
"Father Song has always been like this... He's good at pretending, always wearing a mask to appear upright to others. If it weren't for this mask, the Lu family wouldn't have survived."
Lin Yan was a little confused about what Lu Jinghuai meant by this sentence, but Lu Jinghuai was silent for a moment and then spoke again.
"After my parents passed away, he was concerned about his image and reputation, so he didn't directly swallow up the Lu family's business. Instead, he helped the Lu family stabilize the situation. He originally thought that he should slowly swallow it up, but he didn't expect that I would give up my studies and take over the company directly. With the help of Uncle Chen, he had no chance at all."
"I wonder if he regrets his decision now."
Lu Jinghuai's eyes darkened. It was because of Song's father's "kindness" that he never doubted Song's father for so many years. He didn't know how many detours he had taken.
Lin Yan also understood what Lu Jinghuai meant, but if Lu Jinghuai himself was not really capable, Song's father's plan might have really succeeded.
A young boy of eighteen or nineteen, whose parents have passed away, is able to manage a huge company, and is surrounded by elders who are beasts in disguise. The hardships that Lu Jinghuai has endured must be unimaginable to others.
Lin Yan looked at Lu Jinghuai who was talking about those things calmly in front of her, and suddenly felt her nose slightly sore for a few seconds.
At the beginning, Lu Jinghuai was just a domineering CEO in a romance novel to her. His brief background was only used to promote the emotional development of the hero and heroine and to show the entanglement between them.
Mr. Lu in the article appears with an aura, and taking over the company at the age of eighteen or nineteen shows that Mr. Lu, as the male protagonist, is different from others in his excellence.
But who would have thought about why Lu Jinghuai, who was supposed to be going to college, took over the company and how much he paid step by step?
Lin Yan couldn't bear it any longer and went forward to hug Lu Jinghuai.
“Those were hard years.”
Lu Jinghuai was stunned for a moment, but a little dazed. Is it hard? Of course it is hard.
It is undeniable that the seventeen or eighteen-year-old Lu Jinghuai was indeed an outstanding and excellent young man, but no matter how outstanding he was, he was just a young man who had not yet left school at that time.
At that time, his family suffered an unexpected change. He had to endure all the grief, pretend to be calm to deal with all the things, and learn how to manage the company.
Every step Lu Jinghuai took was extremely difficult. He couldn't even make a mistake. If he made a mistake at that time, it would be a devastating blow to the Lu family at that time. But fortunately, he survived.
The two hugged each other silently in the yard for a long time, until the door of the house suddenly opened.
Lu Yingqian originally came out to see how her brother and sister-in-law were hanging the little lanterns, but she ended up seeing her brother and sister-in-law hugging each other in the middle of the yard, with pink bubbles seeming to be popping up around them.
Lu Yingqian reacted instantly, slammed the door shut, and said something.
"Brother and sister-in-law, please continue."
Lin Yan also reacted instantly and broke free from Lu Jinghuai's arms. Her face turned slightly red. When she met Lu Jinghuai's smiling eyes, she felt a little embarrassed and angry for a moment. She glared at Lu Jinghuai.
"Hurry up and hang up the lanterns, there are still many."
Lu Jinghuai smiled and said nothing. He bent down to pick up the small lanterns that had fallen on the ground and hung them on the tree one by one. Soon the yard was full of small lanterns. The red small lanterns were particularly festive.
The following days passed quickly, and New Year’s Eve was almost here in the blink of an eye.
Lin Yan didn't try to get up early because she was pregnant, but she couldn't sleep because people around her were setting off firecrackers, so she woke up around nine o'clock.
In the living room downstairs, Lu Yingqian was making dumplings with Liu Ma. When she saw Lin Yan coming down, Lu Yingqian quickly asked with a smile.
"Sister-in-law, we're having dumplings this morning. What flavor do you want? Aunt Liu and I made dumplings stuffed with corn, cabbage and meat, mushrooms and meat, and shepherd's purse and meat."
Lin Yan raised her eyebrows. There are quite a lot of flavors?
"I'll just eat the one with shepherd's purse and meat filling."
As Lin Yan was talking, she walked to the living room. The two of them were making dumplings with shepherd's purse and meat filling. There was still a lot of filling left on the plate, and there were also dumplings placed on the side.
"Auntie Liu, why are you making so many dumplings?" Lin Yan was a little surprised.
Aunt Liu smiled and said, "I just have time to make some more and put them in the refrigerator to eat later."
