Su Yuhe watched Jiang Lin drinking duck bone soup. When she looked away, she happened to catch a glimpse of a familiar face not far away in the opposite corner.
She stared for a few seconds.
Isn’t this Lu Jianrong’s father?
She was holding a little boy and coaxing him with a smile. There was a woman next to her, looking at them with a smile on her face.
His mouth moved, probably to urge them to eat.
Seeing how happy they are, I would have thought they were a family of three.
A family of three?
Su Yuhe was shocked. She seemed to have discovered a shocking secret!
Is Lu Qikai going to have a mistress outside?
Otherwise, how to explain this scene?
This child looks to be eight or nine years old. It would be great if he is really Luqikai's child.
Noticing that Lu Qikai paused, Su Yuhe quickly withdrew her gaze and deliberately sat sideways, fearing that she would attract Lu Qikai's attention.
He was secretly thinking about how to report this matter to Lu's mother.
She was a little excited. If this incident really proved that Lu Qikai had cheated, the Lu family would be in chaos. She wouldn't have to do anything then. This incident alone would be enough to end Lu Qikai's career.
Seeing that she hadn't eaten a single bite, Jiang Lin rolled one for her just as she had done before: "What are you thinking about?"
Su Yuhe took it, opened her mouth and took a bite out of habit, then smiled and shook her head: "Nothing."
During this time, Su Yuhe looked over there several times, becoming even more certain that this mother and son had something to do with Lu Qikai.
Jiang Lin was helpless: "Just eat your meal, why are you always looking over there?"
As he said that, he turned his head and looked in the direction of Su Yuhe, wanting to see what was making her unable to eat her meal properly.
"Hey, don't look." Su Yuhe pulled him aside and couldn't help but say, "Did you see those three people in the corner?"
Jiang Lin nodded: "Do you know him?"
"More than just knowing him? That man is Lu Jianrong's father."
"But that woman doesn't look like his mother..."
Jiang Lin had met Lu Jianrong's mother at the Su family's house today. After such a short while, he was sure that he remembered correctly, so...
He looked at Su Yuhe in surprise, and the latter smiled brightly: "It's going to be a good show."
Su Yuhe and Lu Qikai and the others made some movements, as if they were preparing to pay the bill and leave.
Su Yuhe patted Jiang Lin and said, "Let's go too."
After paying the bill, Su Yuhe and Jiang Lin waited across the street from the door. Not long after, Lu Qikai and the other two came out.
The little boy was being led by the woman. Lu Qikai smiled and touched the boy's head, then looked around before leaving.
Su Yuhe didn't expect that they would separate here, so she pulled Jiang Lin and followed the mother and son.
She wanted to see where the mother and son lived.
After crossing two streets, the mother and son turned into an alley. Su Yuhe looked at the road sign next to them, which read Taihe Lane.
"What are you doing?"
A woman suddenly appeared from nowhere and stared at Su Yuhe and the others: "Sneaky!"
Su Yuhe smiled and said, "Aunt, we just saw someone we know, but it doesn't seem like they're from that house. I saw them go into that house. Do you know the owner's last name?"
The aunt looked at them suspiciously, as if Su Yuhe was the one with bad intentions: "If it's someone you know, don't you know their last name?"
Su Yuhe: "It's like this, auntie. We haven't seen each other for a long time. I want to ask around first. If it doesn't match, I don't want to bother you anymore."
The aunt's expression softened a bit. "It would be nice if you knew them. This mother and son are so pitiful. I heard that their lover died, leaving them with only an orphan and a widow. How pitiful!"
Su Yuhe and Jiang Lin looked at each other.
"Have you met her lover?"
The aunt shook her head: "No, when she brought the child here, they have always been two people. Whenever there was something to register, she always brought the child with her. Later I heard that her lover passed away."
"Do you know her lover's last name?"
The aunt squinted her eyes and thought for a moment: "I don't know, I only know that this woman's last name is Deng."
"Is the child also surnamed Deng?"
"Yes." The aunt answered without hesitation, "Is he someone you know?"
"The last name matches, but the guy I know isn't married." Su Yuhe didn't believe it. "Then, in all these years, have you ever seen anyone come looking for you?"
"No."
"How does she live?"
The aunt laughed and said, "She works in a textile factory. She gets paid every month and eats commercial grain. Who needs to worry about her?"
"She goes to work? Who will take care of the child?"
Auntie: "She is a relative from her hometown. She has gone back to her hometown for the New Year. She will come back after she starts school."
Su Yuhe was silent for a while, then smiled at the auntie: "What a coincidence, the last name also matches, but many other things don't match."
"Okay." Su Yuhe looked regretful. "Maybe I made a mistake. I'm sorry, auntie, for disturbing you for so long."
The aunt waved her hand: "It's nothing."
Su Yuhe called her again: "Auntie, don't tell her about this. I don't want to cause her any trouble if I recognize the wrong person."
"I know."
After leaving Taihe Lane, Su Yuhe sorted out his thoughts.
The woman's surname was Deng, and her son also had her surname. She worked in a textile factory and usually had "relatives from her hometown" to help her take care of the child...
"What are you thinking about?" Jiang Lin asked.
"I feel like they must be Lu Qikai's women. Some men are like that. They have red flags flying at home and colorful flags flying outside! It's true that all the shit they haven't eaten is delicious."
Jiang Lin was silent for a moment, then said, "I can't."
Su Yuhe blinked.
Jiang Lin: "I really can't."
Su Yuhe chuckled: "I didn't say anything about you, I believe you!"
"But if you dare to do this one day, I will definitely cut off your little brother!"
She also made a scissors gesture.
Jiang Lin felt a sudden chill in his lower body...
After sending Su Yuhe home, Jiang Lin did not return to the guesthouse.
He turned around and went back to Taihe Lane.
What a coincidence, I happened to see a few kids playing there.
Inside I saw the boy I had seen before.
Jiang Lin walked over to see what they were playing with.
Originally he was a stranger and the children didn't pay much attention to him.
But after discovering how good he was at playing with things, the kids started to gather around him.
Jiang Lin integrated into the group and soon found out that the little boy was named Deng Feng, who was eating roast duck with his father outside today.
Jiang Lin looked surprised: "Eating roast duck? That must be expensive, right? Your father is so good to you."
Deng Feng caught Jiang Lin's attention and held his head high, looking very proud. "That's right! My dad is so good to me! He even said he would take me out to play in the future."
"Is your father out of town?"
Deng Feng thought for a moment and said, "He won't live with us anyway. Mom said Dad is a hero and needs to live outside to protect us..."
"So how long will it take for you to see your dad?"
Deng Feng was a little distressed: "I don't know..."
Forget it, it was a waste of time chatting, there was no useful information. Jiang Lin played with them for a while before leaving.
