Li Tianlei stared blankly into Lu Jin's eyes.
"Didn't you already know the name 'Stone'?"
"And then, what was your answer to Miss Jane?"
He didn't want to lie to Xiao Jin anymore, so instead of answering her question directly, he threw the question back at her to see how she would respond.
Lu Jin glanced at him sideways, a mystery forming in her mind.
After many years, he had become smarter and more cunning than before.
He used to be so honest; no matter what I asked him, he would answer honestly.
"If you want to know, go ask him yourself."
He won't say anything, and neither will I; let's see who can hold it in the longest.
Lu Jin looked up and walked forward, leaving Li Tianlei behind.
Watching Lu Jin's departing figure, Li Tianlie sighed helplessly.
"Still so prone to throwing tantrums."
But she's the woman I like, so I have to coax her no matter what.
If it's too late, he might end up in a similar situation to Young Master Lu.
"Xiao Jin, wait for me a moment."
After Lu Jin and Shi Tou left, Jian Ruoxi did not rest. Her gaze remained fixed on Lu Shen beside her, and she was unwilling to look away for a long time.
All I can recall are scenes from before their wedding.
At that time, I was like this, staring at him intently when he wasn't paying attention.
Lu Shen seemed to sense something in his sleep and slightly opened his eyes.
He happened to make eye contact with Jian Ruoxi.
"Ruoxi, when did you wake up? Why didn't you call me?"
He excitedly sat up from the bedside, wanting to touch Jian Ruoxi's shoulders with both hands, but considering that she had just woken up and was still very weak, he withdrew his outstretched hands.
Jian Ruoxi was somewhat stunned.
Why has he become so cautious?
Was it because she was being chased that he was frightened?
How are you? Is there anything wrong with your body?
"Should I call the doctor to come and take another look?"
Although the surgery was successful, he still dared not let his guard down.
He didn't want to see Ruoxi suddenly collapse in front of him again.
He was completely unaware that his hands, resting by the bedside, were trembling from excessive worry.
Jian Ruoxi took the initiative to place her hand on his.
"Don't worry, I'm fine now."
"As you can see, I'm perfectly fine now."
Feeling the warmth from Ruoxi's hand, his worries finally subsided.
"It's good that you're alright."
After saying that, he wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
He noticed the confusion on Ruoxi's face, but he chose not to tell her.
He had a dream while he was fast asleep.
In her dream, Ruoxi turned her back to him and drifted further and further away from him.
He tried desperately to grab it, but he couldn't.
Ruoxi had no idea how happy he was to wake up and see her still by his side.
"By the way, that day there were kidnappers and assassins, do you know who was behind it all?"
Since Ruoxi's accident, he has stayed by her side and hasn't had time to investigate the matter himself.
We can only ask Ruoxi if she has any guesses.
If she has really offended someone recently, then I will have a direction when I investigate.
If I told you, would you believe me?
This matter is somewhat related to Lu Shen.
If I were to directly reveal that name, would he think I was settling a personal score?
Therefore, she did not directly address Lu Shen's question, but the meaning she conveyed was quite clear.
Of course she knew who it was.
But she hasn't made a final decision yet as to whether or not to tell Lu Shen.
Even if Lu Shen can come to save her, he may not necessarily be able to bring himself to punish Li Anran.
She had already given up all hope, but then she heard a very firm reply from Lu Shen.
"I believe whatever you say."
"Whatever it is."
Lu Shen's gaze was so firm that Jian Ruoxi didn't dare to look directly at him, and in the end, she even lowered her head.
"The kidnappers told me about this."
He said that the person behind him was Li Anran.
After she finished speaking, she deliberately observed Lu Shen's expression.
I want to see how Lu Shen will react after he finds out that the mastermind behind it all is his fiancée.
She originally thought that no matter what, Lu Shen would defend Li Anran.
But nothing came of it.
He not only didn't say a word in Li Anran's defense, but his expression remained extremely calm.
Just like the name "Li Anran" no longer stirs any emotion in him.
Just then, the nurse came to change Jian Ruoxi's dressing.
Lu Shen then stepped aside and peeled an orange for Jian Ruoxi.
He carefully peeled off the orange peel, leaving only the sweet flesh inside.
As soon as the nurse left, he put the fruit pulp into Jian Ruoxi's mouth.
"Come on, open your mouth!"
Jian Ruoxi turned her head away, not eating immediately, but instead asked him a question.
"Lu Shen, don't you have anything you want to ask or say?"
"For example, if it wasn't Li Anran who did these things?"
His calm demeanor left her somewhat unsure of his thoughts.
"Didn't I just say that I believe everything you say?"
"Now that you've confirmed she's the mastermind, what do you plan to do with her?"
"You choose whether to lock her up directly or dispose of her secretly."
Jian Ruoxi looked at him in disbelief.
Was his change a little too fast?
He had previously shown great trust in Li Anran, not only letting her live in the Lu family home but also assigning her to work at the Lu Group.
Even when she caused trouble at the private villa, Lu Shen didn't punish her too much.
Lu Shen noticed the confusion on her face and offered an explanation.
"There was a reason why I was lenient with Li Anran before."
“She’s being manipulated by someone. Only by keeping her alive can I find that person.”
He sent people to investigate for a long time, but the investigation was interrupted as soon as they found a clue.
I previously asked Ran Jie to investigate within the entertainment industry, but to no avail.
It can be said that Li Anran was the only clue that allowed him to uncover the big fish behind the scenes.
But Li Anran not only caused trouble for Ruoxi many times, but this time he also wanted to kill Ruoxi.
No matter how important she is, we absolutely cannot keep her here this time.
"So that's how it is," Jian Ruoxi murmured after hearing the explanation.
For some reason, she suddenly felt relieved upon hearing this answer.
There was even a hint of excitement.
Lu Shen suddenly leaned closer, his eyes fixed on Jian Ruoxi.
"Otherwise, what do you think it is?"
"Did you think I was still deeply in love with Li Anran?"
Ruoxi had indeed misunderstood him before.
As his unique aura wafted over, Jian Ruoxi tensed up immediately, unconsciously holding her breath.
"Jian Ruoxi, we've spent so much time together."
"Do you really have no idea who I truly love?"
