Prostitution!

Lin Minjun fell back in fright.

Although Lu Deping was a little confused about the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in his previous life, he did not have any major problems in his personal morals. Other bosses liked to keep mistresses and provide one-stop foot washing services after becoming rich, but he would not do that.

After living her whole life over again, Lin Minjun never thought that Lu Deping would be arrested for soliciting prostitution!

Lin Minjun didn't speak for a long time.

Shen Hongyu thought she still didn't hear clearly. Seeing that no one was passing by, she simply threw the can and said, "Prostitution, did you hear that? Lu Deping was arrested by the police because of this. I came to ask you if you know the situation?"

"I... I don't know." Lin Minjun looked bewildered and said, "Since you already know that it was prostitution, why are you still asking me?"

Shen Hongyu stamped her feet in anger. "If I knew, would I have come to ask you? I heard a rumor that Lu Deping might have been arrested because of this. He really didn't go home all night yesterday. I went to the factory, but the employees there didn't know where he went, so I came to look for you."

"What about his mother? Will he come home?" Lin Minjun asked.

Shen Hongyu shook her head, "His father and mother are divorced, and his mother is still struggling to survive and can't control him."

Divorced?

Lin Minjun took a breath of cool air.

She thought about it and said to Shen Hongyu, "I don't know about this matter. My husband doesn't know how to discuss official business at home. You should go ask the police yourself."

After walking a few steps, Lin Minjun said, "If this is true, I still advise you to think more about yourself. Relying on others will not last long. Relying on yourself is the most stable."

Having said this, Lin Minjun said no more and rode away on her bicycle.

When Lin Minjun heard the news, she was still a little curious.

When Yan Li came back that night and the three of them were having dinner, Lin Minjun brought it up, "Brother, today Shen Hongyu from the house behind came to me and said that Lu Deping was arrested by the police for soliciting prostitution. Did you know about this?"

She had no hope at first and just asked casually, but she didn't expect to get a positive answer from Yan Li.

"I know. It was our branch that arrested them." Yan Li raised his eyebrows and said, "Indeed, a group of people involved in pornography were arrested, including pimps, prostitutes, and clients. Lu Deping was indeed among them."

"I've long seen that the guy is not a good person." Erwa spat out the fish bones and said with contempt.

Seeing Lin Minjun's eyes widen in surprise, Yan Li added, "But he hasn't been interrogated yet, and he hasn't been convicted yet, so we can't say that he really solicited prostitution."

"If he didn't have it, the police wouldn't arrest him for no reason, right?" Lin Minjun added.

Yan Li: "The police will not arrest people without reason. We destroyed a place involved in pornography and brothel, and only took away the criminals when they were caught red-handed."

Lin Minjun put down her chopsticks without saying anything.

She just couldn't understand how Lu Deping could become like this. After living his whole life over again, had he lost all his principles and pride?

She no longer had any feelings for Lu Deping, and now hearing the news, she was still more or less unhappy, feeling that she had been blind in her previous life, and quite blind.

Lin Minjun did not spread this matter to anyone else. She just walked away after listening to it and did not tell Shen Hongyu.

Afterwards, Shen Hongyu never came to ask again.

Lin Minjun met Shen Hongyu in the alley several times when she went out.

Shen Hongyu no longer had the smug look she used to have. When she saw Lin Minjun she just glanced at her quickly, nodded occasionally, and then moved on. This made Lin Minjun a little confused, as if she had become a different person.

Lin Minjun guessed that Shen Hongyu herself should know about it, after all, the police would notify her family.

After four or five days, Lu Deping was still nowhere to be seen, and the people in the alley also noticed that he was missing.

Shen Hongyu told others that Lu Deping was on a business trip, but no one believed her.

"When you go on a business trip, you always have to pack your luggage. I saw him go out that night, but he didn't take anything. He suddenly disappeared and I don't know where he went."

"You know what? Last night when I passed by a nightclub, I saw the police taking away a group of people, both men and women. Some were taken away without their shirts on. I saw a man who looked like Lu Deping."

"Could he have been arrested as well? Otherwise, why hasn't he come back for such a long time? If something happened to him, his wife would have to go there. Now his wife is still here. Could he have really been arrested?"

There were more and more such groundless rumors, and everyone's speculations became more and more intense. Shen Hongyu was particularly patient this time, and she never spoke out.

Shen Hongyu went out early and came back late, and it was unclear whether she was thinking of a way out for herself or trying to find a way to rescue Lu Deping.

As Lu Deping's wife, she didn't speak out, so the rumor will always remain just a rumor. Once Lu Deping comes out and explains a few words, the matter will be over.

I never expected that this matter would become such a big deal before Lu Deping came out.

In a blink of an eye, there was still a month before the Mid-Autumn Festival. Lin Minjun asked workers to come and set up three large ovens in the backyard of the restaurant. Of course, they were earthen ovens. The cost of buying Western ovens was too high and they were not easy to sell, so they had to be imported from abroad.

The cost would be incalculable.

The advantages and disadvantages of the old-fashioned oven are very obvious. The advantage is that the mooncakes baked in it are fragrant and the crust is crispy and delicious. The disadvantages are also obvious: the efficiency is slow, the time is long, and more manpower is required.

Fortunately, these shortcomings can be overcome for now. We just need to find more manpower and start work earlier.

Lin Minjun recruited seven or eight temporary workers, many of whom were laid-off employees from other hotels that went bankrupt, and they already had experience when they came.

After baking one batch of cakes, Lin Minjun made a prompt decision to let everyone bake the ones with softer puff pastry first, and then find a dry and cool place to store them after baking so that they would not go bad before being sold. The ones with crispier puff pastry would be baked later so that they would not get damp and become soft.

Among the temporary workers, two people have to be assigned to pack the cartons while the cakes are being baked.

After the distribution was completed, the Mid-Autumn Festival mooncake selling activity officially started. The kitchen staff in the restaurant was busy and kept busy on the first day.

It was already evening when Lin Minjun returned home. The bright moon was hanging above her head, and she rode her bicycle home with the moon in her head.

As soon as I reached the entrance of the alley, I heard a noisy sound, as if someone was quarreling again.

Many people in the alley came to the door to see the excitement, and even people from other alleys came running over.

Lin Minjun couldn't squeeze in, so she had to stop at the entrance of the alley and push her bicycle forward.

Lin Minjun felt helpless when she saw this situation. She didn't know what was going on in the alley recently. It was always noisy. She was so tired now that she just wanted to go home quickly and have a good sleep in bed.

Unfortunately, the alley was blocked and she had to push her bike in with great difficulty.

"Hello, please make way. I live here. Please let me in first."

Lin Minjun walked inside while talking. When she reached the door of her house, she was grabbed by Aunt Cao.

Speaking of this alley, only Aunt Cao knew what happened between Lin Minjun and the Lu family.

At this time, Aunt Cao held Lin Minjun and refused to let her go. She winked at her and said, "Xiao Lin, don't go home yet. You must see the excitement today."

"What's so exciting?" Lin Minjun asked subconsciously.

Aunt Cao then pointed to the back.

Lin Minjun followed Aunt Cao's line of sight and saw Shen Hongyu arguing with someone at the door again, and the person standing opposite her was Lu Xueping!

The two of them pushed each other, and it seemed that Shen Hongyu had driven Lu Xueping out of the house, and Lu Xueping refused to leave, so the quarrel started like this.

Shen Hongyu pushed Lu Xueping out of the door, but Lu Xueping refused to leave. She pulled Shen Hongyu and said, "My brother is missing. You have to go find him. How can you be such a wife? You don't even know how to look for your husband when he's missing. No, you have to find my brother."

"I'm not going! If you want to go, go by yourself." Shen Hongyu pushed Lu Xueping away, her face full of impatience.

Seeing a group of people outside watching the fun, Shen Hongyu felt even more annoyed and couldn't help blaming Lu Xueping for being too troublesome.

Seeing her like this, Lu Xueping was also filled with anger.

She didn't know that her brother had been kidnapped. She only knew that her brother had been missing for several days and her family was very worried. Today she came to look for him, but found Shen Hongyu staying at home quietly, as if she was not in a hurry at all. Lu Xueping was of course unhappy and forced Shen Hongyu to go find him. The two of them started arguing with each other, and Shen Hongyu actually drove her away!

Lu Xueping was furious. She thought to herself, this house was bought with money from my brother. Who do you think you are, Shen Hongyu, to drive me away? To be honest, I am a member of the Lu family, and I should be the one to drive you away.

She thought so in her heart and said so out loud.

Unexpectedly, this sentence made Shen Hongyu angry. The two started fighting in the house and fought even more when they went out.

The more Lu Xueping thought about it, the more she became dissatisfied. She cursed, "Shen Hongyu, do you have any shame? My brother paid for everything you wear, live in, eat and drink. You don't even have a dowry, and yet you came to my house with a bag. Now that my brother is in trouble, you still have the nerve to eat fruit at home. Do you have any conscience? Hurry up and find someone for me."

Shen Hongyu was so angry that she shook, but she had nothing to say and could not refute. She could only point at the entrance of the alley and say, "It is not your turn to intervene in our affairs. Lu Xueping, get out of here and don't come to my house again."

"Haha, is this your home? Did you pay?" Lu Xueping refused to give in and sneered, "You are so rude to me, don't blame me for telling your dirty laundry. You were eager to marry Deping, but now that he is in trouble, you don't care. When Deping comes back, my mother and I will let him divorce you, and see if you can find another good man."

"My mother will definitely agree if I say that. You stay at home every day instead of going to work, playing mahjong, eating and drinking at my brother's expense, and you still have the nerve to yell at me. No one in my family respects you!"

When saying this, Lu Xueping crossed her arms over her chest and looked down at Shen Hongyu. The contempt, disdain, and arrogance on her face made Lin Minjun suddenly think of herself in her previous life, when she had the same expression.

Shen Hongyu was enraged by this series of words. Her eyes turned red and she slapped Lu Xueping in the face. "Is this what you should say? No matter what, I am the wife that Lu Deping married in a formal ceremony. What about you? What about you? Who do you think you are to chase me away?"

Shen Hongyu's anger rushed to her head, and she used a lot of strength, hitting Lu Xueping's head to the side, and a slap mark quickly appeared on her face.

"You dare to hit me?" Lu Xueping was stunned. She touched her face and felt a stinging pain in her skin, as if there was a place scratched by Shen Hongyu's nails.

Lu Xueping screamed in anger, "Ah! You dare to hit me, I will fight you!"
