Chapter 08 Chapter 8
Lu Jianing comes from a wealthy family and has an arrogant personality, and he is often arrogant.
However, her serious and proud personality not only does not make people feel that she is annoying, but instead makes people feel that she is just a rebellious little brat who has not grown up.
Jiang Yubai had already gotten used to it. He shook his head helplessly and said quickly, "I'll send a message to that person right now, asking him and He Qifeng to act faster, lest Shen Yuan escape."
"Yeah," Lu Jianin responded nonchalantly.
Then, she didn't know what she was thinking of, and she asked nonsensically, "By the way, Jiang Yubai, have you found out if Zhao Qian has any twin brothers?"
"Twin brothers?" Jiang Yubai repeated.
"Yes," Lu Jianing added, worried that Jiang Yubai wouldn't understand what she meant, "They look exactly the same, and others can't tell them apart at all, but they are actually two different people."
Jiang Yubai thought about it seriously for a while and replied, "No."
As soon as he finished speaking, he seemed to have thought of something else, and he quickly added: "But I found out that Zhao Qian had plastic surgery in a foreign hospital three years ago."
"Why would he need plastic surgery if he doesn't want to be an actor?" Lu Jianing wondered.
"Do you need me to check?" Jiang Yubai asked.
Lu Jianing: "Well, let's check it out. It would be inconvenient for He Qifeng to check on the matter of the foreign plastic surgery hospital. Ask someone to check it out, and tell He Qifeng as soon as there is any news."
"If anyone asks, just say that we have a million-dollar cooperation with the Zhao Group. In order to be more secure, our company must first conduct a back-check on the main person in charge."
Jiang Yubai replied: "Yes."
After Jiang Yubai responded, he thought of something else and said, "By the way, Boss, do you want to come to the company? I heard that there was a problem with the documents of the company's senior management, which caused the company hundreds of thousands of losses. Now they have found two solutions and said they want to wait for you to come back and make a decision."
"Why would I go back if the case isn't solved?" Lu Jianing didn't care at all. "Tell them that they can do whatever they want with the company, and the losses will be on me. I'll just give them some work experience. If the company collapses, I'll open another one."
Jiang Yubai: ...
Really arrogant.
Jiang Yubai was curious: "Aren't you afraid that your father will fall from his position as the richest man?"
Lu Jianing didn't care: "I'm a police officer, I'm in the system, I have a decent job. Even if he goes bankrupt, as long as he doesn't have any debts, I can support him."
Jiang Yubai did not respond immediately.
He knew that these were Lu Jianing's real thoughts.
She had no intention of making a name for herself in business, nor did she plan to stay here for long.
She was able to inherit the family business in such a high-profile manner, and could unabashedly break into Linjiang as a rich second-generation dandy, simply because she had a case here that she had to solve!
It's just because she has a reason to hide her identity!
She doesn't care whether the company can make a profit or not.
So even if the company goes bankrupt, she will just smile and then invest money to open another one.
Jiang Yubai didn't know why, but he was subconsciously curious: "Boss, if... that thing didn't happen, what would you be doing now?"
Lu Jianing replied nonchalantly: "Maybe I'll follow my master to solve cases in the police station, or I may follow my master to fight in the training ground."
"Puchi." Jiang Yubai laughed out loud.
"What are you laughing at?" Lu Jianing thought his sense of humor was inexplicable. "Is it funny?"
"Nothing," Jiang Yubai suppressed his laughter and returned to the previous topic, saying, "Okay, I'll tell the top management right away and let them solve the problem themselves."
"Don't worry, the company won't go bankrupt anytime soon." Lu Jianing said.
Jiang Yubai, who had known Lu Jianing for many years, seemed to have guessed what she would say next. He said jokingly, "What should we do now?"
Lu Jianing ordered briefly: "I'm downstairs at Shen Yuan Company, come and pick me up, we'll go find Zhao Qian."
Jiang Yubai's voice became solemn: "Do you believe what Shen Yuan said? Do you really think the suicide note is on Zhao Qian?"
"I don't know," Lu Jianing said frankly, "but I always feel that Zhao Qian should know something..."
Even if I don't know anything, it must be related to the case itself...
"Okay," Jiang Yubai said, "I'll be right there."
Jiang Yubai had just hung up the phone when Lu Jianing received another message from a stranger on his phone.
——Sun Anling died from falling from a building. The time of death was around 8 o'clock. There were strong traces of human intervention. There was even a one-yuan coin without any fingerprints near the deceased, so Captain He suspected murder.
One dollar coin?
Shen Yuan?
Sure enough, the direction she searched was absolutely correct.
It turned out that Shen Yuan was a factor in Sun Anling's death.
Lu Jianing quickly replied with a message - 1.
-
Jiang Yubai drove Lu Jianing to Zhao Qian's residence.
Because Zhao Mogan died before the ceremony of Zhao Qian's recognition of his ancestors was completed, Zhao Qian was not accepted by the Zhao family.
He could only live in a suburb far away from the Zhao family.
Jiang Yubai went forward and knocked on the door a few times, and then a gray-haired old man opened the door for him.
"Who are you?" the old man asked.
"Lu Jianing, the president of Lu Group, wants to talk to Zhao Qian about something." Lu Jianing stepped forward and said.
"Our young master is not at home now, please come back later." said the uncle.
"It's okay. We are his friends. We can wait for him in the house." Lu Jianing stretched out his hand behind him. Jiang Yubai, who was tactful, immediately took out the invitation letter from his pocket and put it in Lu Jianing's hand. "This is the invitation letter for Zhao Qian's ancestral recognition ceremony. If you don't believe it, you can take a look."
The old man looked at the two people several times, and finally said, "Okay" after he was sure that they did not have any hostility.
The old man opened the door and said, "Come in."
Lu Jianing and Jiang Yubai looked at each other and hurriedly followed.
The old man led the way: "Zhao Qian is a miserable child. He was thrown to Country M by Zhao Mogan right after he was born. He finally came home and was able to enjoy a few days of peace and quiet, but Zhao Mogan died again. You are his friends, you must persuade him well. I am really afraid that he will be unable to get over it."
"Who are you to Zhao Qian?" Lu Jianing asked instinctively.
"I am the housekeeper assigned to Zhao Qian by Zhao Mogan." said the white-haired old man.
"How does Sun Anling treat Zhao Qian?" Lu Jianing continued to ask.
"Madam..." The white-haired old man let out a long sigh, "I can't say my stepmother is good, but I can't say she's bad either. She's not bad at all, she's not bad at all!"
Lu Jianing continued to ask: "Does Zhao Qian often go to Zhao Mogan's house?"
"No, our young master went there once when he just returned to China, and he has not been there at other times."
"About what time?" Lu Jianing asked.
The old man hesitated for a moment and replied, "Three months ago."
Three months ago?
It’s been quite a long time…
"Where was your young master last night?" Lu Jianing asked again.
The housekeeper said: "Last night, our young master was in a bad mood and stayed at home the whole time. He didn't go anywhere."
"How did you know?" Lu Jianing was alert for a second.
"I live here every day, so I know." The housekeeper said defenselessly.
Lu Jianing pondered for a while and didn't ask any more questions.
After an unknown amount of time, a thin man walked in from the door.
Seeing Lu Jianing sitting on the sofa in the living room sipping tea, Zhao Qian was stunned: "Who are you..."
"Luka Ning, like you, is a rich second generation."
Lu Jianing sat on the sofa with a calm expression, as if she was the owner of the house.
She extended her hand and said unceremoniously, "Sit down. I want to talk to you about something."
"Oh." Zhao Qian sat down opposite Lu Jianing obediently, "Excuse me, what do you want to talk to me about?"
Lu Jianing looked at Zhao Qian for a long time, and said slowly: "It's nothing important. In fact, I mainly want to talk to you about cooperation today."
Zhao Qian didn't say anything, and Lu Jianing continued, "I just came to Linjiang a month ago, and many companies are not very welcoming to me, so I want Mr. Zhao to help me build my reputation."
When it comes to helping, Lu Jianing's attitude becomes very polite.
"Why should I help you?" Zhao Qian said.
"If our two families cooperate, I can help you bring down the Zhao family." Lu Jianing said calmly.
"Zhao Corporation is my family's company. Why should I help you bring it down?" Zhao Qian asked cautiously, "What's in it for me?"
"In fact, you don't have a good relationship with the Zhao family." Lu Jianing said straight to the point.
Zhao Qian's expression did not change at all. He said, "I don't know what you are talking about."
"Don't pretend to be magnanimous. Zhao Mogan threw you abroad for such a long time, don't you hate him?" Lu Jianing continued to exaggerate, "If Zhao Mogan dies, the Zhao family will have to be divided equally with Sun Anling and Shen Yuan. Do you feel comfortable?"
"And...if I'm not mistaken, Sun Anling isn't very kind to you and your mother."
When mentioning Sun Anling, Zhao Qian's temper became unusually irritable: "You are not allowed to mention her."
"Okay, okay, I won't mention it," Lu Jianing guessed Zhao Qian's attitude towards Sun Anling, and she said, "So, can we talk about bankrupting the Zhao family now?"
Zhao Qian picked up the clean glass on the table and gulped down a few gulps.
Lu Jianing witnessed all this. She smiled calmly and continued, "I heard that Mr. Zhao left all his inheritance to you before he passed away. Is that true?"
"I don't know." Zhao Qian answered quickly.
"If it's true, I can help you take back the Zhao Group. If it's not true, we can work together to bankrupt the Zhao Group and let you and I take charge of the Zhao Group together."
Lu Jianing's capitalist face suddenly showed: "You want to destroy the Zhao Group, and I want to make a name for myself. We both get what we want. This deal is a good deal."
"You want to ask where the will is." Zhao Qian asked with his head down.
"Pfft——" Lu Jianing curled the corner of his lips.
She didn't expect Zhao Qian to guess her thoughts so quickly.
She naturally dragged the cup that Zhao Qian had taken to her front and carefully filled it with water.
Lu Jianing nodded: "Yes, without a will, how can I be sure that you are indeed qualified to inherit the Zhao family?"
"I'm a businessman and I don't like doing risky business."
Zhao Qian slowly raised his head and said word by word: "I don't have that will here."
Lu Jianing stared at him closely: "Mr. Zhao, the most taboo thing in cooperation between the two parties is insincerity."
"I don't know where the will is." Zhao Qian said word by word.
Lu Jianing looked at him calmly for a long time, and suddenly she stretched out her arm and swept it across the table.
Various glasses filled with water were scattered all over the table.
There were crackling sounds one after another.
There was no change in Zhao Qian's expression.
Lu Jianing: "Master Zhao, time is precious. I don't have time to play house with you."
"I really want to cooperate with you, young master. I hope you won't treat me like a fool."
Zhao Qian slowly raised his head and stared at Lu Jianing: "Who told you that the will is with me?"
Lu Jianing stood up and looked down at him: "There's no need to tell you this."
Zhao Qian looked back at her with burning eyes: "If you don't tell me, I don't know where Zhao Mogan's will is."
Lu Jianing said nothing.
After a while, she said, "Okay, since Mr. Zhao is not honest, then our cooperation ends here. Mr. Zhao, just pretend I have never been here."
"Goodbye."
Zhao Qian did not stand up to see her off, but sat on the chair with his head down.
Lu Jianing stopped halfway and said to Jiang Yubai behind her, "Sweep up the broken glass on the ground and pay the price to Young Master Zhao."
Zhao Qian seemed to be irritated by Lu Jianing's arrogant attitude. He said word by word: "No need, you can go now."
"Since I broke the things, I have the obligation to clean them up."
Lu Jianing raised his head, looking down at everyone, and said, "Jiang Yubai, since Young Master Zhao doesn't want you to sweep, then you pick it up!"
“Pick it up with your hands!”
Lu Jianing met Zhao Qian's gaze without any fear. She said fiercely, "Pick them up one by one!"
