The document sent by the translation department manager was not long. Lin Yan was quite professional and finished processing it in about two hours. She saved it and sent it back.
Processing completed~
Lin Yan stretched comfortably, but happened to meet Lu Jinghuai's gaze on the sofa.
His dark eyes were so deep that one could not see the bottom, and there seemed to be some emotions in them that Lin Yan could not understand.
Lu Jinghuai had actually been watching her work for two hours. Lin Yan felt inexplicably uncomfortable.
[Why is Lu Jinghuai always looking at me? ]
[Could it be that Lu Jinghuai is afraid that I might touch the things in his study? Tsk, judging a gentleman by one's own standards.]
At this time, Lu Jinghuai had completely calmed down and glanced at Lin Yan who was accusing him again.
He rubbed his eyebrows but said nothing. He just kept digesting what Lin Yan said. At the same time, he also hoped that Lin Yan could reveal more information. Unfortunately, Lin Yan worked too hard.
Lin Yan had finished her work at this time, so he looked up and asked, "Is it okay?"
"Okay, it's not a very long file anyway." Lin Yan had already turned off the computer.
Lu Jinghuai hummed, and seeing that Lin Yan was about to leave the desk, perhaps unwillingly he spoke.
"That photo was the last photo of my sister Lu Yingqian before she disappeared. It was also the last family photo of our family."
Lin Yan was a little confused for a moment before she realized that Lu Jinghuai was talking about the photo she had just seen.
[But... why is Lu Jinghuai telling me this? ]
Lin Jiao hesitated and thought for a while, but still said nothing.
Lu Jinghuai continued to speak. He looked at Lin Yan and asked, "Aren't you going to ask where Lu Yingqian is?"
"ah?"
[Should I ask politely? After all, logically speaking, I really don't know Lu Yingqian's situation yet.]
After thinking for a moment, Lin Yan politely followed Lu Jinghuai's lead and asked, "What about her now? Why haven't I heard from her?"
Lin Yan tried hard to act like a curious baby.
Lu Jinghuai also followed her words and continued: "She disappeared. She disappeared inexplicably on the day my parents were killed."
Lin Yan heard a hint of loss and confusion in Lu Jinghuai's tone.
This was the first time Lin Yan saw Lu Jinghuai like this, and he was quite different from the past.
[Damn it, I suddenly feel that Lu Jinghuai is quite pitiful. When Lu's parents had the accident, Lu Jinghuai seemed to be underage, right?]
My parents are dead, my sister is missing, and I'm the only one left in my family of four. It's really tragic.
[But why would Lu Jinghuai suddenly say all this to me, and have so much to say? Could it really be late-night emo?]
Lin Yan hesitated for a moment, wondering whether she should comfort Lu Jinghuai.
But Lu Jinghuai looked at her again, and his dark eyes were filled with emotions that Lin Yan could not understand.
"Where do you think my sister, Lu Yingqian, is now?"
"Ah?" Lin Yan held back the words of comfort in her mouth and looked at Lu Jinghuai blankly.
Her mind was in a mess.
[No! What does Lu Jinghuai mean by that? Why is he asking me this? Lu Jinghuai is really weird.]
"I shouldn't know, right?" Lin Yan hesitated and answered, trying carefully not to irritate Lu Jinghuai with her answer.
"Sorry." Lu Jinghuai also realized that he was too anxious. He pulled the corners of his mouth to make himself look calmer.
"I've been looking for her for almost ten years. If she were still alive, she would be 23 this year. I don't know if she's in a relationship or married."
Lin Yan also breathed a sigh of relief and realized that this was just Lu Jinghuai's sigh.
She hesitated for a moment but still said nothing, and didn't think much about it.
There was a hint of disappointment in Lu Jinghuai's eyes, but he was also worried about arousing Lin Yan's suspicion again so he didn't ask any more questions.
He retracted his gaze, put the book in his hand on the bookshelf, and took the initiative to end the topic: "It's getting late, go back and take a shower and rest, you still have to go to work tomorrow."
【Didn't you drag me to listen to your late night music? 】
[Don't worry, Lu Yingqian will find it. Or Song Jingya will personally lead you there. Is this just part of the play between you and Song Jingya?]
Lin Yan left the study room with her mind wandering, but the complaints she had in her mind before leaving made Lu Jinghuai pause.
Lu Jinghuai's eyes darkened. This was the second time that Lin Yan said that Song Jingya had helped him find Lu Yingqian, and no matter how she tried, Lin Yan did not reveal Lu Yingqian's specific address.
The approximate range was just a turn into the mountains. Could it be that Lin Yan didn't know the exact address?
Lu Jinghuai let out a long breath, took out his cell phone and sent a message to a certain number.
"The investigation has been expanded to include mountain villages."
The phone number replied in less than a minute, with just two simple English letters.
『OK』
Lu Jinghuai didn't look at it any more, closed the study door and returned to his room. Lin Yan was not in the room, but the sound of dripping water came from the bathroom.
Lu Jinghuai's expression felt a little awkward for a moment. In the past, Song Jingya would go back to her room to take a shower after dinner and watch TV series in bed.
Therefore, every time Lu Jing returned to the room, Lin Yan had already finished washing up.
Today was the first time that Lu Jinghuai ran into Lin Yan taking a shower. Lu Jinghuai felt a little uncomfortable and wondered whether he should go out and wait for a while before coming back.
The bathroom door opened.
Lin Yan came out of the bathroom with the mist and saw Lu Jinghuai hesitating at the door. She didn't think much about it, yawned lazily and asked.
"Are you going to take a shower?"
Lin Yan has recently gotten used to being in the same room with Lu Jinghuai so she wasn't surprised at all.
"Yeah." Lu Jinghuai's voice was a little hoarse, and his eyes fell on Lin Yan's scattered hair.
She must have just washed her hair and just blew it dry when she came out, so it wasn't completely dry yet and was a bit misty.
The mist soaked the area of pajamas on my chest, and the thin pajamas stuck to my chest...
Lu Jinghuai withdrew his gaze and went to the sofa on the other side to pour a glass of water, but he saw Lin Yan getting ready to go to bed, and he frowned.
"Blow dry before going to sleep." Lu Jinghuai said four simple words.
"Ah?" Lin Yan paused for a few seconds and didn't react. She blinked her eyes before reacting and saying "Oh", scratching her hair.
It does seem a bit damp.
Lu Jinghuai is acting strangely today. Is he worried that I'll get the bedding damp?
Lin Yan obediently went to the bathroom to take out the hair dryer. Soon after, the sound of water was heard in the bathroom, and the sound of the hair dryer was heard outside the bathroom.
