What's more, after so many years, Lu Jing has not achieved any stunning achievements and his reputation is mediocre, otherwise he would not have been suppressed by Zhao Xian all the time.
Lu Zhiyuan picked up the wine glass on the table, looked at the transparent glass, and murmured, "Although my father didn't achieve anything great in his life, he was at least honest and hardworking. When I was young, my family was just an ordinary family of teachers. My father received a fixed and meager salary every month. Every time he handed in his salary, my mother would scold him, thinking that he was incompetent and couldn't make a lot of money."
When mentioning Lu Jing, Lu Zhiyuan's eyes were full of regret.
Lu Jing relied on this meager salary to send Lu Zhiyuan abroad to study. After Lu Zhiyuan founded Xiguang Technology, the Lu family's financial conditions have improved in recent years.
Lu Zhiyuan regretted that he was unable to let Lu Jing enjoy more happiness.
He put down his wine glass and asked me, "If it's true, as Yan Meng said, that it was my father who took the manuscript away and sold it, then shouldn't he have received a large sum of money?"
But at that time, the Lu family was still an ordinary family and nothing had changed.
I suddenly remembered the police investigation, and my eyes lit up: "Then half a million!"
Lu Zhiyuan looked at him suspiciously: "Are you talking about the 500,000 yuan deposit my father withdrew?"
I nodded. "Don't you think it's strange that he got half a million? With your mother's strict discipline, how could he possibly have hidden so much private money?"
Lu Zhiyuan frowned. "That's what's puzzling me. I went to the bank to check the money. It's a current account my father had kept there many years ago. Five hundred thousand was certainly a lot of money back then, not something an ordinary teacher like him could easily come up with. But I can't understand. If he truly obtained this money by violating his conscience, why hasn't he touched a single cent of it in all these years? Even when I went abroad, started a business, and even when things went wrong at home, he never took any of it out."
This is indeed incredible.
Five hundred thousand, five hundred thousand back then, could completely change the Lu family's life.
Seeing Lu Zhiyuan's tangled expression, I patted his shoulder gently to comfort him: "Maybe your father has some difficulties?"
Lu Zhiyuan shook his head, looking tired.
"Honestly, when I received the call from the police, I impulsively wanted to confront Yan Meng face to face. But then I calmed down in the car. I knew that even if I questioned Yan Meng, he would not tell me the truth."
The matter involves the parents of both parties, and everyone will protect their own family first.
"What's more, Yan Meng was not in the country at that time. He was still young then, and perhaps he didn't know the so-called truth at all." Lu Zhiyuan guessed to himself.
I felt a little relieved. Fortunately, Lu Zhiyuan figured it out in time in the car.
Otherwise, if he really met Yan Meng, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Lu Zhiyuan suddenly raised his eyes and his gaze met mine.
He seemed to be reminding me, and explained clearly: "But I will investigate this matter further. If I find out that Yan Meng is really the culprit who killed my father, then I will definitely not let him go!"
His eyes were as sharp as torches, staring at me intently, as if he wanted to see something from my eyes.
And at this moment, I suddenly understood the purpose of his asking me out.
I thought he wanted to confide in me, but in fact he was just testing me, testing the relationship between Yan Meng and me, and testing how much I knew about this matter.
