Seeing his son's excited expression, Mr. Lu pondered for a moment before finally speaking: "I know what you're talking about. Your mother went out with her classmates to relax today. Don't let your mother know about this yet. I'll go to City A tomorrow to meet this Lu Jingnian you mentioned."
"Dad, I'll go with you!"
Lu Yinian quickly said that he had discussed it with his family all afternoon and that the idea of getting rid of Lu Jingnian was definitely unrealistic. Lu Jingnian was a soldier, and his aura was so intimidating that he was not someone to be trifled with.
If we can't afford to provoke them, we can only outsmart them. Rather than waiting for the Lu family to find out about Lu Jingnian, we should take the initiative.
This would make the Lu family believe that they never believed Lu Jingnian was dead, and that they eventually found him. The Lu family would certainly not suspect that it was their family members who took the child away and abandoned him on the mountain while Madam Lu was out delivering water.
Lu Jingnian was only one month old back then, so it's impossible for him to remember these things.
This is the best way.
"No."
Mr. Lu rejected Lu Yinian's suggestion and gave an irrefutable and very convincing reason: "You just came back from City A, and then you went to City A with me again. Your mother will definitely overthink it if she finds out."
Her health is already poor, and she shouldn't know about this until things are confirmed.
"Alright then." Lu Yinian didn't think much of it, because Madam Lu's health was indeed not very good and she couldn't be stimulated.
"By the way, Dad, I heard that Lu Jingnian's background is not good. He had a miserable childhood and later had to marry the daughter of the benefactor who sponsored his schooling in order to repay a debt of gratitude. If you confirm his identity, and if he really is my older brother, please bring him back as soon as possible, so that my older brother will not suffer anymore."
The thought that he might really be my older brother, and has suffered so much, breaks my heart.
As she spoke, Lu Yinian actually started crying.
“I know about these things. If he really is your older brother, I will definitely investigate and make sure my son doesn’t suffer any injustice.”
Lu's father didn't look too good. Lu Yinian thought he was probably feeling sorry for Lu Jingnian's situation.
So he offered a few more words of comfort to Lu's father.
Mr. Lu waved his hand, "It's getting late. You just got back from City A, you must be very tired. Go and rest first. Let me think about how to meet the person you mentioned."
"Dad, you should get some rest too."
Lu Yinian felt that this was enough and left the study at just the right time.
Not long after he left, Mrs. Lu called.
The Lu family has two telephones with two numbers. One is the public telephone in the living room, and the other is a separate telephone in Mr. Lu's study, which is used only by Mr. Lu.
Mrs. Lu didn't use the public phone at home because she was afraid of being overheard.
Moreover, she knew her husband well; he definitely wasn't asleep at this hour.
Sure enough, the phone rang once and Mr. Lu answered it.
"Old Lu, I guessed right. Xiao Jiang and Jing Nian really do know each other. Jing Nian is even his brother-in-law. Isn't that a coincidence?"
"I'm telling you, Xiao Jiang said he called Jing Nian today and said Jing Nian will pick him up at the station tomorrow, so I'll be able to see Jing Nian tomorrow."
(Sorry, everyone, I had something to do and got back late today, so the update is late!)
