Chapter 146



Lu Huan sensed danger immediately and quickly changed her tune with a smile, denying it without saying a word: "No, no, I think this hand looks great here. Look how beautiful your hand is, it's so photogenic, it's a shame you're not a hand model!"

Lu Huan now has a very simple way to coax an angry Gu Zhendong: just blindly praise him. When a man feels comfortable, he will stop being angry.

Sure enough, Gu Zhendong's expression softened a bit because of her words. He pinched her chubby cheek and said, "You're quite sensible!"

Lu Huan gave a fawning smile, secretly cursing the man's shamelessness.

With Gu Zhendong there, Lu Huan naturally couldn't say anything about the video. She only replied to Gao Hui with "okay," and Gao Hui immediately posted it using the studio's account.

The studio's account now has nearly ten million followers, and videos quickly garner likes and comments as soon as they are posted.

People often watch the short videos and behind-the-scenes clips posted by the studio, and naturally they can recognize Lu Huan's voice, thinking that Lu Huan is much prettier than in those photos.

Lu Huan used a high-definition camera to shoot the video, without any beauty filters, and at most added some subtitles at the end.

With a face like hers appearing on camera, who would dare say she's not good-looking? She's clearly beautiful and has a sweet voice, and many people have become her fans.

Gu Zhendong also registered a secondary account and specifically followed the studio's account.

The short video had a lot of likes and comments. Gu Zhendong casually clicked into the comments to see if there were any more negative comments about Lu Huan, but unexpectedly he got angry instead.

The reason is simple: Lu Huan's male fans are all commenting on his wife's posts.

The man's face visibly darkened. Lu Huan glanced at him and hurriedly explained, "Oh dear, they have the right to do what they want. I can't stop them from sending these things. Besides, they're not all boys; there are quite a few girls too!"

"What did you say?"

"nothing!"

Lu Huan's voice suddenly faded, quickly turning into a series of soft, whimpering sounds that left much to the imagination.

Lu Huan wanted to know about her biological parents and wanted Gu Zhendong to investigate Mingze and Shen Hui, but it would seem strange to tell him so abruptly.

Gu Zhendong is such a smart person, he will definitely guess something. When the time comes, he will definitely question me, and I won't know how to explain it.

Lu Huan rubbed his head, unsure how to tell Gu Zhendong about this. Maybe he should just keep quiet!

When Gu Zhendong came in from outside, he saw Lu Huan with messy hair, tossing and turning in bed. "Awake?"

It's really rare to see her get up this early.

Lu Huan weakly hummed in agreement, "I have a class this morning!"

She got out of bed, her bare feet on the carpet, and threw herself into the man's arms, hugging his waist. Looking up at Gu Zhendong, she asked, "What kind of people do you think my parents would be?"

Gu Zhendong glanced down at her bare little feet, frowned, and lifted her by the bottom, carrying her towards the bathroom. "She must be a very good person!"

"How do you know?" Lu Huan blinked. "What if it's like Ye Bo and Li Lan?"

What if Mingze and Shen Hui really do look alike, but aren't her biological parents?

After all, they had heard that their daughter died young and they hadn't had any children since.

The possibility that I am their child is almost zero.

Gu Zhendong knew that Lu Huan longed for her parents' affection, so he said with extra seriousness, "No! They will definitely be very good parents, and they will definitely love you very much!"

Although he already knew the truth, it felt a bit strange to tell her suddenly like this. He decided to wait until he found out what happened back then before telling her the truth.

She likes Mingze and Shenhui so much, she'll be very happy to know the truth.

Now that it has been confirmed that Lu Huan is Mingze and Shen Hui's daughter, the investigation has a direction.

Ye Bo was unaware of the situation, and Li Lan, fearing death, dared not tell the truth. Pang Zhe followed the clues to investigate the neighboring city and discovered that Li Lan had lived in the neighboring city for a period of time in her early years. He also investigated the hospital where Shen Hui gave birth.

Twenty years ago, hospital equipment was not as advanced as it is now, with cameras monitoring everywhere, so it was normal for some oversights to occur.

Trying to investigate through CCTV footage, Pang Zhe found either missing cameras or lost data from back then. He spent the whole day searching but found nothing.

He contacted Kong Xun and explained the situation of his investigation here.

If I were to tell Gu Zhendong the result, I would inevitably be scolded, and in more serious cases, my salary would be deducted.

Kong Xun thought for a moment and said, "Investigate again where Li Lan was during that period, whether she appeared at that hospital, and start by checking their personnel records."

Surveillance might not reveal much, but we could try looking at personnel files. Back then, the internet wasn't very developed, so most files were still paper-based.

Anyone can enter a hospital, but that doesn't mean you can do illegal things inside.

Besides, it's always suspicious that an outsider like her would appear in a hospital.

Pang Zhe followed Kong Xun's directions to investigate and actually found something.

Li Lan was indeed working at the hospital during that period, as a cleaner, so it's possible that she might have targeted the newborn child.

So here's the question: whose child did Shen Huimingze have when he died young?

Li Lan's?

Not only do we need to investigate, but we also need to get more answers from Li Lan.

Lu Huan felt at ease handing the investigation over to Gu Zhendong, believing that results would be forthcoming soon.

Instead of worrying about the outcome, it's better to enjoy life in the present.

When the day came to go to the art exhibition with Shen Hui, Lu Huan got up earlier than ever before, taking a shower, putting on makeup, and changing clothes, spending more than an hour in the process.

Lu Huan hummed a little tune in a good mood, and even teased Gu Zhendong before leaving.

"Or would you like to come with me? But don't bother us, you do your thing, we'll do ours!"

Gu Zhendong: ...Listen to her, is she even speaking human language?!

"No, I have things to take care of today. You have fun!"

Lu Huan kissed him and coaxed him like a child, "Then you work hard, honey, I'm going out to play!"

"..."

Give them a little leeway and they'll dare to open a dye shop!

Forget it, I'll settle this score with her properly when she gets back.

This art exhibition will run for a week, and today is the first day. There are so many people coming to see the exhibition.

She glanced around and saw that there were quite a few young women there, many of whom had come specifically to meet the artist in person.

Lu Huan wanted to spend more time with Shen Hui, so she didn't learn much about the painter, but she did listen to Shen Hui's explanations.

I heard that this artist is very famous abroad and has won many awards at a young age. Not only are his paintings beautiful, but he is also handsome. I heard that his family is in the oil business, which makes him even richer.

Rich, handsome, and talented—what man wouldn't like that!

Lu Huan wasn't initially interested in the artist, but after hearing the girls around her discussing him, she gradually became more interested.

"Second Aunt, from what you're saying, you seem to know this painter quite well. Do you know him?"

Shen Hui nodded, "We've met a few times before."

"I see!"

"I'll introduce you to him in a bit!"

"Huh?" Lu Huan panicked. To be honest, she didn't know much about art. What if she met the other person and they couldn't talk to each other? Wouldn't that make her look very embarrassed?

Shen Hui seemed to see Lu Huan's predicament and patted her shoulder reassuringly, "Don't worry, Jeffrey has a very good personality."

"Is his Chinese good?" Lu Huan was a little worried that her English wasn't good enough and the other person wouldn't understand her.

Shen Hui laughed at her words, "Don't worry, he's Chinese."

Um?

So he's Chinese. That puts her at ease.

It must be said that Jeffrey is indeed very talented. Even she, a layperson, thinks his works are very beautiful. Shen Hui said that his paintings always sell for a high price, and he donates almost all the proceeds to charity, taking nothing for himself.

It seems that he is not only talented, but also a person of excellent character.

It was because Jeffrey frequently did charity work that he met Mingze and Shen Hui. The ticket in Shen Hui's hand was also given to her personally by Jeffrey.

Shen Hui introduced Lu Huan to Jeffrey, and they exchanged introductions. Although he was Chinese, his facial features were distinctly mixed, and his pair of blue eyes were quite captivating.

Most talented painters seem to have bad tempers, but Jeffrey seems to be an exception.

Not only is he good-looking, but he also has an unexpectedly good temper. He is gentle and kind, and it is very comfortable to chat with him.

As the two were chatting, a boy suddenly walked over. Lu Huan thought the man was a fan of Jeffrey, so she wanted to avoid him and let him interact with the fans. Little did she know that the boy was coming straight for her.

The other person was very excited, looking at her with bright eyes: "You must be Lu Huan'er?"

Those who can name her are usually her fans.

Lu Huan was taken aback for a moment, "Uh, yes, that's me!"

"That's great! I'm a fan of yours. Can I take a picture with you? I watched your videos, and you really look even better than in the videos!"

The boy was clearly very excited, holding his phone and looking at her expectantly, which made Lu Huan feel embarrassed to refuse.

She really didn't expect to meet her fans here.

Lu Huan nodded. This male fan was meeting Lu Huan for the first time. He took several photos and still wasn't satisfied. He looked at Lu Huan and asked, "Can I take a few photos while hugging you?"

Lu Huan likes taking photos, but she doesn't like taking photos with strangers. This person in front of her is her fan, so she didn't want to refuse him before, but he asked her to hug him for a photo?

Lu Huan decisively shook her head in refusal, "Sorry, I..."

The moment the word "sorry" left his mouth, the male fan realized that Lu Huan wanted to reject him, so he decided to act first and ask for permission later, and tried to forcibly hug Lu Huan.

Before he could even hug Lu Huan, Jeffrey guessed his intentions and, just as the man lunged at Lu Huan, Jeffrey grabbed the male fan's wrist and pulled him back.

The whole thing happened so fast. The male fan had only touched Lu Huan's arm before Jeffrey pushed him far away. Even so, Lu Huan was still startled and instinctively backed away, hiding behind Shen Hui, staring at the male fan in fear.
