Lu Jiao ran away. Apart from the girls in the orphanage who sighed a few times for him, everyone else was somewhat gloating.
Because Lu Jiao escaped just before the Laba Festival, the entire city, including the surrounding area, had just experienced a heavy snowfall.
In the dead of winter, without a place to stay, accidents can easily happen.
No one believed that Lu Jiao had a place to stay, and they guessed that he had gone to hang out with a group of thugs on the street.
Because someone saw Lu Jiao with them a few days ago.
"The orphanage might receive a call from the police one day saying that Lu Jiao has been sent to a juvenile reformatory."
"Who told him to leave the orphanage and go off to join the underworld?"
Cao Xiaomei used Lu Jiao as a negative example and told it to the children in the welfare home.
Jian Yu disagreed, knowing that Lu Jiao was definitely not with that group of thugs.
On the day that group of thugs came looking for Lu Jiao, Lu Jiao had many bruises on his body.
In the dead of night, Jian Yu couldn't help but worry about Lu Jiao. Where could he go in such cold weather?
If you're going to leave, why not choose a time when spring is in full bloom and the weather is warm?
At least the temperature is pleasant at night, so you can make do with a night in the park.
Perhaps because he was overthinking during the day, Jian Yu dreamt at night that Lu Jiao was on a stone bench in a park, frozen into an icicle by the heavy snow.
Year after year, no one heard any news of Lu Jiao.
Gradually, people forgot about him.
Jian Yu would occasionally think of him, but as time went by, his appearance became somewhat blurry.
Jian Yu came to her senses and found a wet towel on her forehead.
Just as she was about to take it off, Lu Jiao pressed her hand down, "Don't move! You have a fever, this is a wet towel to cool you down."
Jian Yu was stunned for a moment; she didn't realize she had just fallen asleep.
Where did you go after you left the orphanage?
"I went to see my mom."
"Everyone's having trouble finding your mom, so how do you know where to look for her?"
"I always knew where she was hiding, I just never said it."
Jian Yu thought of the cold treatment he received when he returned to the Yu family, and knew that he must have also been treated with a lot of disdain when he went to find his mother who had abandoned him.
"Is your mother willing to accept you?"
"Of course not."
"......"
Lu Jiao said nonchalantly, "Her new husband is the owner of a small company. She gave me some money to leave so that I wouldn't bother her."
"You left?"
"right."
Jian Yu looked around. "You just said this is your cargo ship. When did you start doing this?"
Lu Jiao, "You want to ask me how I happened to save you, right?"
Jian Yu nodded.
“I’ve been aware of your recent whereabouts.”
"???"
"You're really stupid."
"......"
"Huo An nearly caused you to fall into the water and die last time. I thought you would be more cautious, but you still foolishly fell for it."
"Huo An?"
Isn't Xu Que the mastermind behind it all?
Lu Jiao pinched Jian Yu's cheek with two fingers, "You're so stupid."
At first, the pinch didn't hurt, so Jian Yu didn't say anything.
As a result, Lu Jiao was not satisfied and began to exert force.
Jian Yu gasped in pain, "What are you doing?"
Lu Jiao withdrew his hand with satisfaction. "Xu Que is just a knife in Huo An's hand. She herself thinks she is the final boss and that Huo An is unaware of what she has done. In fact, everything she did was deliberately guided by Huo An."
Jian Yu didn't understand, "Why would Huo An target me?"
“You ruined his plans. He found out you know hacking techniques and guessed that Huo Tingzhen’s watch wasn’t actually lost, but rather that you discovered the anomaly inside. Plus, the Huo siblings care about you, so he wanted to kill two birds with one stone.”
"Killing two birds with one stone?"
"You don't think it was just to make Huo Qizhen suffer, do you? His plan was to have Ma Rui and Huo Qizhen die together, but Ma Rui and Xu Que were exposed early on, so his later plan was useless."
Jian Yu coughed violently.
Lu Jiao: "Why are you angry? Haven't you already taken your revenge?"
Jianyu, “…”
Lu Jiao said, "Others may not know how Huo Yunzhen's car accident happened, but you know it very well."
Jian Yu looked wary. "You..."
Lu Jiao said, "Don't be nervous. I won't tell anyone."
Jian Yu remained vigilant. "How did you know?"
Lu Jiao said, "I know a lot about you. Don't worry, I meant no harm, otherwise I wouldn't have come to save you."
That's true.
"Drink water."
Jian Yu sat up and took the cup. "How did you know that Shen Qianyuan was going to target me this time?"
Lu Jiao said, "I've been keeping an eye on Huo An, only to find out that he was the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind."
"Is it also related to Huo An?"
"Of course he did. He originally planned to make his move on you on New Year's Eve. But you slept in Huo Tingzhen's room, so his men didn't have the chance. Your maid was on his orders to bring you out and hide you somewhere. He wanted to use you to negotiate with Huo Qizhen. However, Shen Qianyuan intercepted her halfway. He threatened the maid with her family, so she had no choice but to change course and send you to the beach. As you already know, Shen Qianyuan staged your deaths as a car accident and drowning."
Jian Yu only wanted to talk about Shen Qianyuan and never thought that Huo An was involved in this matter.
Lu Jiao looked Jian Yu up and down. "How did you and your sister end up at the point of life and death?"
Jian Yu said, "The conflict between us runs deep."
Lu Jiao nodded, "I know, but I don't understand why your family would take you back if they don't like you?"
Jianyu doesn't understand either.
Lu Jiao, "Do you know what conditions your sister set when she agreed to be pursued by Shen Qianyuan?"
Jian Yu knew without even thinking that it must be related to her.
"I heard that Shen Qianyuan is getting engaged. Shen Ding is vehemently opposed to it, but he can't make the decision for Shen Qianyuan. Although Shen Qianyuan's mother is dissatisfied with Yu Yao, she doesn't dare to go against his wishes."
In her previous life, Shen Qianyuan's mother was also very polite to Yu Yao.
After Jian Yu finished drinking the water, Lu Jiao said, "Get some rest!"
Jian Yu, "You should have evidence that Shen Qianyuan and Huo An contacted my family's servants, right?"
Lu Jiao nodded, "Of course."
"Please send this out for me!"
Lu Jiao shook his head. "No."
"Why?"
"It's pointless to send it directly to Huo Qizhen. It would be much better to let him unravel the mystery layer by layer and expose his own father."
"......"
"And then there's Shen Qianyuan, who must be very pleased with himself right now. He's found himself a perfect scapegoat, and once the police focus their investigation on Huo An, he can use public opinion to wage a business war against the Huo Group."
"......"
"When they find your car and discover there's no body inside, not only Huo An, but even Shen Qianyuan will be very anxious. They'll wonder if you were rescued, or if they've been exposed. If they search for a long time and only find the body of your servant, while you remain missing, they'll be even more restless."
"I don't want this to happen."
Kenneth Fok will be worried.
Lu Jiao said irritably, "Do you even know how to watch a show? Don't you find it funny to see them living in constant fear?"
