Lu Anning took a deep breath, doubts welling up in his mind.
Every time, Big Brother always knew everything, but kept it to himself and never told anyone. This time, wouldn't he also...
"Just tell me, what did you find out? Or do you know more than I do?"
Lu Anning didn't dare to think about whether his elder brother would pretend to know nothing and tell him nothing even after knowing all the truth if he didn't check it himself.
"What do you mean?"
Gu Yue's serious look made Lu Anning feel that his elder brother might know everything.
Then what was the point of her struggling for so long?
She looked at Gu Yue and felt a little angry, angry that she was worried that he would not be able to accept it.
"The whole thing!"
Gu Yue looked at Lu An Ning's determined eyes, wondering how much she knew about the whole thing. Given her temper, she would definitely get to the bottom of it. There seemed no need for him to hide anything.
"You know everything?"
After hearing these words, Lu Anning, who had been holding her breath, suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. Under the table, a layer of fine beads of sweat had appeared on the palms of her hands that were tightly holding Tang Jingyuan's.
She didn't answer, but Gu Yue had already guessed the answer.
"With Jing Yuan helping you, it's normal for you to suspect them. No wonder you're so cold to Ji Yan and even your attitude towards your father is weird."
"At first, I was just dissatisfied with the Gu family's rules. I wasn't used to blindly obeying. I had done too many obedient things in the Lu family before, and I didn't want to jump into another pit. It wasn't until later, when I learned that my mother had died in the fire and there were so many suspicious points, that I began to suspect him."
Thinking back carefully, the real answer should be the truth she learned from Lu Yunxi when she was locked up in the mental hospital. In addition, her father had been trying to stop her from investigating further...
"You knew it, but you didn't intend to let me know."
Gu Yue smiled bitterly: "You have been wandering outside for more than 20 years. You finally came back. Now someone loves you. I hope you can live a good life instead of being obsessed with revenge."
Lu An Ning raised the corner of his mouth: "Brother, you always take on all the responsibilities alone, which is really unfair. Second brother and the others probably don't know about these things! You are not the only one who is my child."
Tang Jingyuan's chuckled voice came from beside my ear: "If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have played dumb with you. You don't know how long Ningning has been struggling with whether to tell you this. He was worried that you wouldn't be able to accept it."
A hint of shock flashed across Gu Yue's eyes: "Is my elder brother so useless in your eyes?"
Lu Anning smiled awkwardly, and the atmosphere in the tea room instantly relaxed a lot. Now that everyone was exposed, there was no need to hide anything.
Lu Anning revealed Professor An's plan and said bluntly, "Brother, I hope that the Gu family can be renewed with a new leader."
Gu Yue understood, and when he thought about the recent scandal between Professor An and his father, it made sense: she was deliberately trying to get close to his father. However, what he couldn't understand was how his father, who had always been a clean-handed person, would give Professor An a chance?
There is only one explanation, that my father is also able to get close to Professor An. But what is his purpose in doing so?
Gu Yue was silent for a while: "Can Professor An be trusted?"
"I can use the Tang family as a guarantee. You can trust her completely."
Gu Yue was a little shocked and surprised at Tang Jingyuan's attitude towards the professor.
"Jingyuan, you are so sure, do you know something else?"
Tang Jingyuan smiled mysteriously: "You just need to trust her. Professor An is definitely not an enemy to us. She has no reason to plot against you."
"Brother, no matter what, you are in the Gu Group. If you find any problems, you can stop it in time. But Mom was killed by that woman and Dad together. I must seek justice for her."
Lu Anning gritted his teeth, his eyes filled with unconcealable hatred.
At this moment, Gu Yue's mood was a bit complicated. He guessed some answers, but he didn't know how to face them.
"Give me some time, I'll think about it."
"Brother, I understand how you feel right now. No matter what your final decision is, I will not change my position. Even without Professor An, I will still seek justice for my mother. They must pay the price for what happened back then."
Gu Yue frowned: "I understand what you mean! At least, I won't interfere with your plan."
With these words, Lu Anning felt a little relieved.
Coming out of the tea room, the three of them were not as relaxed as when they came in.
On one side was the issue of right and wrong, and on the other was his respected father. Gu Yue was unable to make a decision for a while.
He looked at his little sister who looked very similar to his mother when she was young, and an idea came to his mind.
If my mother hadn't died in that fire, would things have been different...
The next day, on their way back from the ancient town, they received a call from Gu Zhiwei himself, asking the four of them to go back to Gu's house for dinner together.
"We'll be a family soon, so this is a good opportunity for us to get together."
Lu Anning agreed without hesitation, and the four of them returned to the Gu family together.
The kitchen was bustling with activity, and before anyone even entered, they could sense the unusually lively atmosphere. Except for Ding Wan, everyone else noticed something was amiss.
I'm afraid that tonight is not just about having a meal.
Everyone was about to change their shoes when Ji Yan, contrary to her usual behavior, came forward to greet them enthusiastically. She then instructed the servants to prepare hot towels and hot tea, and also asked about Lu An Ning's well-being.
Lu Anning stared at the hand that Ji Yan pulled towards him. The warmth coming from the fingertips turned into waves of coldness when it entered his body.
She took a deep breath and became alert.
