Of course, Lu Yunxiao would not really lock her up in the house like a prisoner in order to stop her, but her stubborn nature still made him angry.
He looked at her with a cold expression and an extremely hard attitude, "Can't you just listen to me for once?"
"I can be obedient many times, but this time, I definitely can't."
It was clear that the man was genuinely angry. Bai You pulled his hand ingratiatingly and said coquettishly, "Just let me investigate. I promise to prioritize my own safety. I won't be impulsive or reckless. I'll report any danger to you immediately and share everything I find with you at all times. I won't lie. Okay?"
Lu Yunxiao's attitude softened considerably, but his expression remained grim. He looked down upon Bai You and asked coldly, "Why do you insist on investigating this? Isn't it good for me to help you?"
Bai You shook his head. "It's not bad, but the meaning is different. Because of the Zhou family, I died tragically in my previous life. Becoming Chu Lanxi was God's blessing to me, but I can't forget the hatred just because I'm still alive. Besides, I have a feeling that my car accident was only one thousandth of the evil done by the Zhou family. I don't know how many people, like me, were quietly eliminated by them. In the end, an accident determined the truth behind their deaths."
"I'm a police officer. Investigating these things is my job. Just think of it as me completing what I wanted to do most in my previous life. You can't let my death be in vain, right?"
Lu Yunxiao looked at her quietly, and finally asked: "Do you really need to check?"
Bai You nodded heavily, "We must check it out!"
It must be checked!
She wanted to see what they were actually doing and what ugly faces lay behind the charity!
Bai You's attitude was very firm. Lu Yunxiao knew that no matter how he tried to persuade her, he would not be able to make her give up this idea. Unless he really imprisoned her and kept watch over her, she would have a hundred ways to interfere in this matter. But locking her up was a fantasy.
He sighed and said resignedly, "What on earth do I owe you that you torture me like this?"
I didn't get a clear guarantee from him, but his words were already a sign of letting go.
Bai You excitedly put her arms around his neck and kissed him on the face several times, "Thank you, Mr. Lu!"
Thank you for not stopping me.
Thank you for giving me the right to investigate.
Thank you for giving me a strong background.
There were many things she wanted to thank him for, but in the end, they were all summed up in one word: thank you. She didn't need to say the rest, Lu Yunxiao naturally understood.
He patted her back soothingly and sighed. It seemed that he had to find a bodyguard for her.
…
"You said Lu Yunxiao agreed?"
Tang Feng looked at Bai You and asked in disbelief.
Bai You nodded, "I agree."
She had originally decided to leave all Zhou family affairs to Lu Yunxiao, and Tang Feng would not have to get involved. However, she did not expect that a charity would appear halfway, making her realize that her own affairs might just be the tip of the iceberg hidden in the Zhou family, and she needed to discuss the long-term situation with Tang Feng.
But after telling him about this, he was not curious about the Zhou family's affairs. Instead, he was curious about Lu Yunxiao's agreement to let her investigate this matter. Why was his focus so strange?
After receiving Bai You's affirmative answer, Tang Feng suddenly became quiet, lowered his eyes, and looked slightly absent-minded, not knowing what he was thinking.
Bai You tapped the table in dissatisfaction, "Time is running out, let's discuss this quickly. If we keep dawdling like this, I'm afraid something might happen."
Tang Feng looked up at Bai You, his entire body incredibly calm, as if the shocking news Bai You had shared wasn't a surprise to him at all. "What are we discussing? How can we uncover the facts of their crimes? Or how can we dissuade them from committing further crimes? Or how can we, just the two of us, defeat the massive Zhou family?"
Bai You was stunned by Tang Feng's question. He looked at him in astonishment, unable to figure out what he meant for a moment.
Tang Feng smiled bitterly and said softly, "I know you're very concerned about Forensic Doctor Bai's death. You finally found out who murdered her. You can't just let it go like this. But you have to understand that some things can't be accomplished just because we want them to."
"You are Lu Yunxiao's wife, the wife of the president of the Lu Group. You are famous and powerful. It's true that you have Lu Yunxiao backing you up and protecting you, but Chu Lanxi, you have to understand that this is the Zhou family. They haven't been able to stand here for so many years by luck, but by fighting to the death. If you don't threaten them, then everything is fine. But if your presence makes them feel disadvantaged, they will quietly get rid of you like they did forensic doctor Bai. It will be useless except for getting themselves into trouble."
Bai You suddenly sneered and said sarcastically, "So you let them continue to harm others, continue to arbitrarily deprive others of their lives, and continue those dirty, illegal transactions. Just because you want to survive, you turn a blind eye, right?"
Tang Feng shook his head. "It's not about just letting it go, nor is it about turning a blind eye and pretending nothing happened. We can intervene in this matter, but you can't?"
"Why?"
"Because Zhou Yan has set his sights on you. I still don't know what he's up to, but one thing is for sure: he's approaching you for a purpose. It's not about making friends. He's a dangerous person to be around. If you continue to get close to him, something bad will definitely happen. The best way is to remove yourself from this matter. Don't worry, I'll take care of the Zhou family's affairs. Overtly, Lu Yunxiao will be the one keeping watch, and I'll be involved in secret too. The truth will come out sooner or later, so there's no need for you to get involved."
