Chapter 774: Deep suspicion, someone from the northwest (Part 1)
The target was Jiang Fuyue's right shoulder.
She dodged to the side and the man's palm missed.
"What are you doing?!" she asked coldly.
"I..." Lou Mingshen's gaze fell on the tree trunk behind her, and he breathed a sigh of relief without leaving a trace.
Just as he was about to explain——
"Yueyue, come here! Let's go home!"
Han Shen and Han Ke came out of the hall, stood on the lawn not far away, and shouted to Jiang Fuyue.
Because Lou Mingshen was hidden in the shadow cast by the branches and the light was dim, the two men did not notice him.
Jiang Fuyue: "Come right in."
This time, Lou Mingshen didn't stop her, nor did he dare to stop her.
I just watched helplessly as the girl disappeared from my sight step by step. The cold wind blew by, and there was nothing else except a lingering fragrance in the air.
Lou Mingshen felt melancholy for a moment.
After an unknown amount of time, the housekeeper found him under the tree and was startled for a moment.
"Sir?!"
"Yeah." Lou Mingshen nodded slightly, "There's a snake in the tree. Send someone over to deal with it as soon as possible."
"There's a snake?!" The housekeeper's eyes widened and he immediately responded, "I'll call someone right away!"
Lou Mingshen prepared to leave.
Seeing this, the housekeeper asked tentatively: "The old lady is back, aren't you...living at home?"
"No."
"Stop right there—" Suddenly, an old man shouted, and Fu Choujun stepped forward quickly, "It's so late, where are you going?"
Lou Mingshen said coldly: "I haven't lived in the Lou family in the past six months since I came back."
The old lady cast an inquiring look at the butler, who nodded slightly.
"Why don't you live at home?"
“This is not my home.”
To be exact, he has no home.
Fu Choujun didn't know what sensitive nerve this sentence had irritated. Her eyes sharpened and she angrily demanded, "What do you mean by 'not your home'? Lou Mingshen, I'm telling you, no one in the world is more qualified to live here than you! You are the legitimate president and patriarch of the Lou family. Who dares to say anything?"
"What a 'legitimate'! Don't you feel guilty when you say those four words?"
Fu Choujun's face changed slightly: "Shut up! We haven't seen each other for twenty years, and you have to poke me in the lungs with words when we meet again?! Ah Shen," her voice trembled, "you are my own son. I carried you for ten months and gave birth to you in one day..."
Lou Mingshen's eyes were indifferent: "I will never live in the Lou family again in my lifetime."
"you!"
"Whoever wants to live here can live here." After saying that, he strode away without looking back.
The old lady was so angry that she was shaking all over. She pointed at his back as he left and said, "You bastard! You bastard!"
After roaring twice, he covered his chest and almost couldn't breathe.
The housekeeper immediately helped her into the house: "Quick! Call the family doctor!"
…
The night is quiet and the wind is cold.
Lou Mingshen returned to his residence, opened the door, and was plunged into darkness.
He didn't turn on the lights. As he walked, he took off his tie, loosened the buttons of his shirt, and finally sat down on the sofa.
The darkness seemed to swallow him up, and he and the night became one and the same.
Lou Mingshen closed his eyes tiredly...
I didn't expect that I would fall asleep right after closing my eyes.
In the dream, Lou Mingyue's face and Jiang Fuyue's face appeared alternately, and finally overlapped!
The overlapping face began to bleed and was finally covered in bright red.
No matter how he screamed, panicked, or called for help, it was all in vain.
At this moment, he lowered his head and saw a bloody dagger in his hand!
Lou Mingshen suddenly woke up!
He sat up, his eyes blank.
He raised his hand to wipe it, and found his forehead was covered in cold sweat, and his shirt was soaked.
Lou Mingyue...Jiang Fuyue...
These are clearly two people!
But the overlapping faces in the dream fit so well, as if they were born as one.
The man's eyes suddenly turned cold.
He suddenly stood up, turned on the light, and walked quickly towards the study.
He turned on his computer and searched through his mailbox, and finally found the email in the receiving records from two months ago.
It showed that it had been read, but at this moment, Lou Mingshen clicked it again.
The first thing that caught my eye was a photo. The girl was wearing a high school uniform. Compared with the sexy and cool little black dress she was wearing tonight, she looked a little more pure and harmless, but her eyes were still clear and indifferent.
Below is the investigation data of "Jiang Fu Yue". From birth, there are traces of every time point, and there are photos as evidence. This person did not appear out of thin air.
The only thing that is worthy of suspicion is probably the huge change in her before and after her sophomore year of high school.
From a lonely and taciturn poor student, she suddenly became a top student. Various awards and honors propelled her to success, making her the arrogant and cold "genius girl" she is today.
But this change is not without basis, because——
Jiang Fuyue was a beauty in junior high school and had excellent academic performance. It was only after she went to No. 1 Middle School that she started to take a non-mainstream route and became a poor student.
Her later awakening did not happen suddenly. It was said that it was because her confession failed and she suffered a blow from the school hunk that she decided to work hard.
This is also the main reason why Lou Mingshen did not think much about it after reading the information.
So smooth and so reasonable!
Every change in Jiang Fuyue can be traced and investigated, it doesn't seem like... she is a different person at all.
Yes!
From the first moment he saw her, Lou Mingshen had a crazy and almost absurd guess in his mind.
Although the time didn't match, the age didn't match, and the appearance was completely different, Lou Mingshen couldn't control himself from thinking in that direction.
Maybe?
Maybe she's actually still alive?
But reason told him again and again——
It's wishful thinking and self-deception!
Lou Mingyue died twenty years ago! Gone!
Reality and extravagant hopes were in a tug of war, as if they were about to tear him in half in the next second.
It was not until he had the dream just now, in which the two faces overlapped seamlessly, that Lou Mingshen finally made up his mind to verify it.
If... if Jiang Fuyue is really "her", then there must be clues in this information!
The man's sharp eyes swept across the screen, not missing any details.
Under the light, his brows were cold and his profile was solemn.
Not finding it the first time, he tried again.
The second time, nothing happened, so he started the third time...
The night outside the window gradually fades away and dawn is approaching.
Lou Mingshen sat in front of the computer, his expression never relaxed and his eyes never moved away.
Every word above, every piece of information related to her, after a night, was imprinted in the man's mind as if copied and pasted.
Jiang Fuyue…born on December 6, 2033…from Linhuai City, J Province…
Lou Mingyue…born on December 7, 2005…died on April 1, 2030…
There is no overlap in the two people's information!
But the guess in Lou Mingshen's mind became clearer and clearer, like boiling magma that could erupt at any time.
Even though there is no basis for this, even though it is completely unrelated...
He let go of the mouse in frustration, stood up and walked to the French window. He looked at the sky just beginning to brighten, his brows gradually furrowed. "What went wrong..."
Some people spend long, sleepless nights, while others have sweet dreams and wake up early in the morning.
Since the classes on the next day were all in the afternoon, Jiang Fuyue simply followed her two uncles back to the Han family to spend the night.
The two people in the car talked about Mrs. Lou's weird behavior and immediately sneered.
"It's really hard for her to still act like a demon at her age."
"With an elder like this, it's a wonder the Lou family remains undefeated. Back in the day, when Lou Ming... eh! was still around, they were the most powerful family in the world, at their peak."
"Each generation is inferior to the previous one. Perhaps this is the tragedy of wealthy families."
"Not all wealthy families are like this. I think the Xie family is pretty good. At least they have a united heart and a national treasure-level genius supporting them."
Han Ke touched his chin and chuckled twice: "So, according to you, our family is not bad either. We are also united, and we have Yueyue, a genius, right?"
Han Shen, who is usually so low-key and steady, actually nodded this time: "That makes sense."
Besides, Yueyue is much younger than Xie Dingyuan, and has unlimited possibilities and a bright future.
Jiang Fuyue: “…” Unexpectedly overwhelmed by pressure, she dared not speak.
Finally, the two uncles concluded unanimously:
First, the Lou family is not respectable, and Fu Choujun is not a proper old lady, so it is not appropriate to have too close contact with her.
Second, Jiang Fu Yue is the hope of the whole village...oh no, the whole family.
After waking up, washing up, Jiang Fuyue went downstairs to have breakfast.
After eating, they were about to go back to school, but Han Shen happened to be going to the company, so Jiang Fuyue didn't let the driver take him alone.
The car stopped at the school gate. Han Shen gave a few instructions, and Jiang Fuyue nodded one by one. Her attitude was very nice.
"Then I'm leaving. Goodbye, uncle."
"Bye-Bye."
Only after watching her enter the school gate with his own eyes did Han Shen let the driver drive away. "What a wonderful child! Why can't I give birth to someone like her?"
Han Ting, who was already sitting in the classroom for morning self-study, said: "A-choo—A-choo—someone missed me?"
On the other side, Jiang Fuyue had just entered the school gate when Xiaoshan called her to go to the office.
"What can't be said on the phone?"
On the other end, Xiao Shan's tone was excited, as if he had just picked up five million. "I'm telling you, I'm making a killing this time! I hired a really good professor! He used to work at the Northwest Research Institute... Anyway, it's hard to explain over the phone, so why don't you come to my office and see him in person!"
Northwest Research Institute?
Jiang Fuyue raised an eyebrow, it seemed a little familiar...
First update, 3,000 words.
You should be able to guess who is coming, right?
