Chapter 137 I suddenly miss him so much
Xu Si lowered his voice and said, "The tax issue last time can be repaid after investigation. This matter is not a big deal, but it is not a small one either."
"But this time, Lu Chengze revealed that Master Lu was willing to send his own son to the bed of a rich woman for resources, and he provided a complete chain of evidence."
"What?"
Jian Yao thought it was a bit ridiculous.
Biological son?
Mr. Lu did not have many descendants. The only ones she knew were Lu Chengze and Lu Chengyuan.
Let’s think back to when Lu Chengze suddenly broke down and went crazy.
Well…
Could it be that the one who was given to the rich woman was Lu Chengze?
Given his proud character, it is understandable that he would fight to the death with the Lu family.
Jian Yao felt a little complicated for a while.
Xu Si had already found the trending search on Weibo and handed it to Jian Yao. "It should be true. The evidence is sufficient."
Jian Yao took the phone and took a quick look. Everything was clear, from the recording of Mr. Lu's phone call to Lu Chengze to the surveillance video from the gate to the corridor of the hot spring villa.
Jian Yao just glanced at it casually and had already turned the page when she suddenly realized that the video cover looked so familiar.
Isn’t it the same place she and Gu Zhiyan went to last time?
Developed by the Pei family.
I remember that not long after I returned to my room that day, a dispute broke out in the corridor, and Gu Zhiyan ended up going there.
Jian Yao's eyebrows jumped and she clicked on the video.
Pei Jiacai is a wealthy family with extremely complete security facilities. The entire process from the moment Lu Chengze stepped into the villa to the moment he entered the room was captured clearly.
Seeing this, Jian Yao was completely certain.
The person that day was Lu Chengze.
The waiter came over with a cart to serve the dishes. Jian Yao paused the video first, helped to arrange the dishes, and waited for the waiter to leave.
She whispered, "If I say that I was in the room near Lu Chengze that day, would you believe it?"
Xu Si had just picked up a piece of tripe and put it into the pot, but when he heard this, his hand shook and it dropped.
"Were you there?"
Xu Si thought back to the time when Jian Yao complained to her about her swimsuit, and it was indeed the same day as in Lu Chengze's surveillance video.
Even the time is almost the same.
Xu Si almost dropped his jaw in shock, "Oh my god!"
"How come you didn't tell me about this explosive news?"
and.
She glanced at Jian Yao's face, which showed almost no unnecessary expression.
It seemed as if the person in the video was just a stranger who was simply watching some ordinary gossip.
Jian Yao pursed her lips and said, "I saw it was quite lively at the time. There were many people gathered at the door. I had no idea that the person inside was him."
Xu Si opened his mouth, wanting to ask if Jian Yao would help if she knew it was him.
I also feel that this assumption is a bit redundant.
So what if I helped? Looking at Jian Yao's current state, he has really let it go.
Even if they offer help, it is at most out of consideration for the long-standing acquaintance.
To be fair, Lu Chengze is indeed not a good person, but it is also quite tragic that he was schemed against by his own father.
Xu Si felt that if she were in such a situation, she would try her best to help.
Not because he is Lu Chengze, but because he is a victim.
Xu Si pulled out the tripe that had just fallen out of the pot. It was a bit old, so he put it in Jian Yao's bowl.
Jian Yao picked it up and stuffed it into her mouth, puffing her cheeks and saying, "I didn't go at that time, but Gu Zhiyan did."
The beef roll that Xu Si had just picked up fell off again.
"So, the man who rescued Lu Chengze in the video was Gu Zhiyan?"
In the video, except for Lu Chengze himself, everyone else is blurred, and it is impossible to tell who they are. One can only barely tell whether they are male or female.
No wonder she felt the voice was familiar when she watched the video. She thought the surveillance camera was not good and the recorded sound was distorted.
After all, Gu Zhiyan and Lu Chengze are not only rivals in love, but also sworn enemies for many years.
Who would have thought that Gu Zhiyan would actually help Lu Chengze?
"ah?"
Jian Yao hadn't watched the second half of the video yet, and was completely confused by Xu Si's words.
Xu Si didn't know how to explain it to her, so he raised his chin and pointed at his phone, "Watch the video for yourself."
Jian Yao picked up her phone and clicked play again.
In order to prove that the video had not been edited, Lu Chengze did not cut off the video after he entered the room.
Jian Yao fast-forwarded a bit until she saw a large group of mosaics gathered at the door in the familiar corridor surveillance screen, and then she stopped.
While the two groups were confronting each other, a person slowly came over from the other side of the corridor.
From the outline, we can tell that he is a man with an upright figure and a leisurely pace.
Although there was a thick mosaic, Jian Yao could recognize at a glance that this was Gu Zhiyan.
In the picture, he seemed to say something, but the sound was muted.
Seeing him appear, the atmosphere between the two sides confronting each other at the door obviously stagnated, and someone came out from the crowd and took two steps to greet him.
This part probably involved some important person. There was no sound during the whole process, but based on the body language, it can be inferred that the person who came to greet him was giving Gu Zhiyan a compensation gift and apologizing.
Then, Lu Chengze, like a bereaved dog, suddenly went crazy and yelled at Gu Zhiyan.
This was the first time in Jian Yao's adulthood that she saw Lu Chengze act so viciously.
His bruised face overlapped with the young face in her memory where he was beaten to the point where he could hardly stand up in order to save her.
Although I had prepared myself mentally in advance, my heart still skipped a beat when I actually saw it.
It's not because I still love you, it's because I can't bear it.
During those countless frightening days and nights in her childhood, it was Lu Chengze who watched over and protected her.
For Lu Chengze, even if she no longer loves him, even if the hurt over the years is real, the years of protection during her childhood are also real.
She didn't know what kind of mood she was in when she watched this video, but when she saw Gu Zhiyan helping Lu Chengze escape.
She breathed a sigh of relief.
Memories that have been sealed for many years are brought back...
Behind the orphanage, a little girl ran as hard as she could but couldn't escape, a hand wrapped around her wrist like a venomous snake, and a man's rampant laughter...
Finally, it was Lu Chengze's childish yet resolute eyes when he picked up the stick and hit the man, and his face that told her to run away when he was pinned down and beaten by the man...
Jian Yao thought that she escaped from the nightmare because of Lu Chengze many years ago.
If many years later, Lu Chengze encountered the same thing near her, even if she knew nothing about it at the time, she would definitely blame herself after finding out.
Fortunately, fortunately Gu Zhiyan is a very good person!
Even though he didn't know the inside story, even though Lu Chengze was still speaking rudely in the video, and even though he and Lu Chengze really had a grudge, he still helped him.
But then, Jian Yao felt a little sorry for Gu Zhiyan.
What was his mood when he rescued Lu Chengze?
He didn't even mention a word about it after he returned.
If Lu Chengze had not been fighting with the Lu family and had not revealed the news herself, she might never have known about his silent contributions behind the scenes.
Jian Yao's eyes were sore and she suddenly missed him very much.
I want to see his news, hear his voice, and hug him.
As if they had telepathic connection, the cell phone beside him buzzed and a message popped up.
It belongs to Gu Zhiyan.
