"Zhaoning."
Lu Shiyu suddenly called out to Lu Zhaoning.
Lu Zhaoning was exhausted both physically and mentally, and just wanted to take a hot bath and have a good sleep.
Hearing Lu Shiyu's voice, she turned around and looked at him.
"Meng Zhixia disappeared from prison."
Lu Zhaoning's eyes suddenly narrowed.
"Missing from prison, what does that mean?"
Lu Shiyu's expression was somewhat bitter, and his voice was slightly hoarse: "No one knows how she disappeared. The lock of the iron door where she was imprisoned was not broken. It's like she disappeared out of thin air."
It was not until this moment that Lu Shiyu realized how little he knew about Meng Zhixia.
"Disappeared out of thin air?"
Lu Zhaoning repeated it in a low voice.
Is this what she thought?
[Host, I've absorbed half of Meng Zhixia's system's power. I thought it would be quiet for a while, but I didn't expect it to be so powerful.]
The system is very angry.
Because they are both systems, it spared the Luck System this time. It didn't expect that this guy still had a backup plan.
[How are Jiang Xuerou and Qin Yu? ]
The system has always been paying attention to the original male and female protagonists, and immediately replied:
[When Jiang Xueruo's pregnancy was exposed, Madam Qin was furious and threatened to break off the engagement with the Jiang family and ruin Jiang Xueruo's reputation, but...]
Lu Zhaoning knew it and urged: [But what? ]
Qin Haoyu disagreed. He didn't want the brothers to get into conflict, and he couldn't bear to see Jiang Xueruo get hurt.
Lu Zhaoning was shocked: [Since ancient times, male second men have always been deeply affectionate and unrepentant. Could it be that Qin Haoyu is willing to be cuckolded? ]
No man can tolerate his beloved woman being pregnant with someone else's child.
Unless Qin Haoyu is a love-brained person!
System hehe: [Host, you are right, Qin Haoyu is just a love-brained person.]
Lu Zhaoning didn't know what to say.
"Zhaoning?"
Lu Shiyu said a lot of things, but Lu Zhaoning didn't respond, not even a look of contempt or ridicule, which made him feel very uncomfortable.
"Do you think I'm useless?"
Lu Zhaoning said calmly: "You should first figure out what kind of feelings you have for Meng Zhixia?
Are you biased towards and protecting Meng Zhixia because you grew up together, or do you really love her?
Or maybe, the reason why you blindly favor Meng Zhixia is because you have no choice.
For example... hypnosis."
When Lu Shiyu heard the word "hypnosis", his hair stood on end.
He thought of the series of stupid things he had done when he was hypnotized by Xia Mengjie.
"I...I'll think it over."
Lu Zhaoning gave him a teachable look.
Lu Zhaoning couldn't close the door, but his expression changed.
[System, I have a very bad feeling.]
[Host, Tongzi feels the same way, but don't worry, Tongzi will always keep an eye on the Lu family's situation.]
Lu Zhaoning immersed himself in the warm water and cleared his mind.
… … …
Knock knock knock!
Lu Zhaoning was awakened by a knock on the door.
She was once again trapped in a dream with strange light paths and was almost swallowed by the nightmare.
I stared at the ceiling for a while before returning to reality.
When I opened the door, I was met with Xu Jingyi's worried face.
"Zhao Ning, are you okay?"
Lu Zhaoning forced a smile and said, "I'm fine. Second Aunt, is there something you want to talk to me about so early in the morning?"
"It's already eleven o'clock. The kids at home said they couldn't wake you up. If you don't open the door, I'm going to ask the housekeeper to get the key to open the door."
Did she sleep that long?
"It's okay, Second Aunt, I was just too tired yesterday."
Xu Jingyi suddenly reached out and hugged Lu Zhaoning.
"Zhao Ning, I only found out about what happened yesterday later. Thank you so much!
If it weren't for you, Ze'an's life would be ruined.
Second Aunt doesn't speak sentimentally, so I won't say much to express my gratitude. I have a piece of land in the west of the city, and I'll give it to you as a birthday present."
Xu Jingyi is not short of money.
Lu Jingyan bought that piece of land for her on her birthday.
The west of the city has been under planning in recent years. If it is auctioned in the future, the price will at least increase several times.
[Host, that piece of land is priceless.]
"Second Aunt, I can't accept something this valuable."
Without giving Xu Jingyi a chance to speak, Lu Zhaoning said softly, "Grandpa once said, if we prosper together, we all prosper, and if we suffer together, we all suffer.
My second uncle has always been my father's right-hand man. I heard that although Brother Ze'an has not been in the company for a long time, he has also won several projects.
In the future, he will be my brother's right-hand man, just like my second uncle.
It is precisely because we are united and working together that our Lu family will continue to grow stronger and stronger."
Xu Jingyi was deeply moved by what she heard. She didn't expect that her ideological awareness was not as good as that of the child.
"Second Aunt is narrow-minded. I'll prepare another gift for you. When you get married in the future, if the land is still there, I'll give it to you as a wedding present.
Lu Zhaoning smiled: "Okay!"
After Xu Jingyi left, Lu Zhaoning quickly got ready to rush to the airport.
Lu Shiyu had been waiting for a long time. When he saw her coming down, he did not urge her, but said:
"Don't worry, I've already contacted the director. If you really can't make it, we can just reschedule."
Lu Zhaoning paused as he was walking out, then turned and went into the restaurant.
Three meals a day, four seasons a year, and sleeping until she wakes up naturally are her biggest desires in another time and space.
Lu Shiyu also followed him into the restaurant.
"I hired a private detective to investigate Meng Zhixia's whereabouts, and I've also had someone keep an eye on the Meng family."
