Chapter 240 Li Anran is missing



"Young Miss, I have something I want to report to you."

Just then, Lu Jin came out of the room, and the maid called out to her in time.

Last night, when Miss and Ali returned, she was busy with other things and didn't have time to tell Miss about what happened today.

As she lay in bed that night, she tossed and turned, increasingly finding Li Anran's behavior today strange.

What exactly did she do in the young lady's room?

"What is it?" Lu Jin asked while yawning.

Stone had already given her the scripts for the first two episodes to review, and she kept annotating them until midnight before going to sleep.

My consciousness is still somewhat hazy.

“Miss, I saw Li Anran in your room yesterday, and her behavior was somewhat suspicious.”

Li Anran? She went into her room?

Who gave her this audacity?

Lu Jin suddenly came to his senses and sternly questioned the maid beside him.

What is she doing in my room?

The maid shook her head; she hadn't seen clearly at the time, as Li Anran had her back to her.

"I don't know either. She told me that her phone fell into the young lady's room."

Lu Jin snorted coldly.

When did Li Anran stop being too lazy to even draft a lie properly before telling it?

Who would believe such a reason?

"Miss, why don't you check if anything valuable is missing from the room?"

In their eyes, Li Anran was also a daughter of a wealthy family.

But the Li family and the Lu family are worlds apart. Li Anran probably has never seen the things in the young lady's room before.

The maid guessed that Li Anran might have gone to steal something.

“That makes sense, I’ll go take a look.”

If she could catch Li Anran stealing, she would have an excuse to kick the woman out of the Lu family.

The maid helped Lu Jin check all the valuables in the room.

"Young Miss, not a single item is missing."

Lu Jin rested his head on one hand, deep in thought.

Could it be that she guessed wrong?

If she wasn't looking for something in her room, why would Li Anran risk being discovered to come here?

It couldn't possibly be that they actually found a phone.

The maid also found it strange, "Could it be that Li Anran took something worthless?"

"I only remember that Li Anran seemed to put something into her pocket."

It can be stuffed into a pocket; it's worthless.

It could also pique Li Anran's interest.

Could it be that thing?

Alarm bells rang in Lu Jin's mind. He hurriedly opened the drawer of his bedside table and dumped out all the items inside.

"Young Miss, what are you looking for? Let me help you look!"

It seems that the young lady has indeed lost something very important.

When Ali heard the commotion in Lu Jin's room and rushed over, she saw Lu Jin slumped on the floor, which was a mess.

The maid squatted to one side, looking somewhat at a loss.

"Young Miss, what happened?"

She had never seen such a panicked look on Lu Jin's face before.

Hearing Ali's voice, Lu Jin felt as if he had found his pillar of support and grabbed her arm tightly.

"I lost the invitation that Ruoxi gave me before."

Ali breathed a sigh of relief. So what if the invitation was lost?

She thought it was a big deal.

"Since you've already attended Ruoxi's birthday party, there's no point in keeping that invitation."

To be honest, she hadn't looked closely at the invitation in her room yet, and she didn't even know what it said.

Seeing Lu Jinna's face gradually turn pale with fear, Ali suddenly realized that things might not be as simple as she thought.

What's inside the invitation?

She guessed that Lu Jin's behavior might be due to the contents of the invitation.

Lu Jin answered, his body trembling.

"Ruoxi's current address is in the invitation."

"Moreover, the invitation may very well have already reached Li Anran's hands."

Ali was shocked and immediately asked the maid in the room.

Did you see Li Anran today?

The maid thought about it and realized that she had indeed never seen it before.

“She must have left early this morning. We all assumed she went to the company, so we didn’t ask any more questions.”

Judging from the current situation, perhaps Li Anran went to see Miss Jian.

"I'll ask someone from Lu's Company."

Lu Jin immediately called the front desk.

Did Li Anran go to the company today?

Upon hearing Lu Jin's voice, the receptionist immediately became more respectful.

"Don't you know, Miss? Li Anran took the day off from work today, saying she wasn't feeling well and needed to rest at home."

Isn't the "home" that Li Anran mentioned the Lu family?

Oh no, Li Anran isn't at the company.

Then there's only one possibility.

Ali had already deduced the general information from Lu Jin's expression.

He pulled Lu Jin and started to walk outside, saying, "Let's go now."

Hopefully, they'll be able to stop Li Anran when they arrive, and that she won't do anything outrageous.

At the entrance of the villa, Li Anran slowly got out of the car.

Gazing at the villa, which was even more exquisite than the Lu family's, she revealed envy and jealousy in her eyes.

"Back then, in order to stay at the Lu family's villa, I had to please the old lady of the Lu family for so long."

"What exactly did Jian Ruoxi do to be able to live here so easily and peacefully?"

He had told her this before, when Lu Shen's mind was entirely on her.

He built his own villa, which he designed meticulously.

The villa was built using the best materials in the world, so that his future wife could live there.

At the time, she thought that Lu Shen's future wife was her.

As a result, after she returned, he never brought her here, let alone let her stay as the lady of the house.

She was stopped by security guards just as she was about to go in.

"Who are you? You can't come in without an appointment."

Very well, the security guards here don't even recognize her, the future young mistress of the Lu family.

Is it because she's been staying at the company for a long time and hasn't come out lately?

"I am Ms. Jian's new assistant. Mr. Ran asked me to deliver the new script to her."

The security guard hesitated.

"A new assistant? I've never heard of him."

Li Anran knew the security guards wouldn't let her pass easily, so she had already prepared an excuse.

“I just passed Mr. Ran Jie’s interview, and this is my first time here.”

"If Mr. Ran Jie hadn't trusted me, why would he have given me this address?"

The security guards agreed.

Miss Jian's living here is a secret; no one other than someone she trusts would know.

"I see. Then you can go in directly."

"Ms. Jane is not working today and is staying at home."

Li Anran was overjoyed.

Great, Jian Ruoxi is here!

"Where is Young Master Lu? Is he home?"

The security guard didn't know why an assistant would ask about Lu Shao's whereabouts, but out of consideration for her being Miss Jian's assistant, he answered honestly.

"Young Master Lu went to the company early this morning, but he's not here!"

That would make everything much easier!
