Why don't you agree?
Lu Jingnian stood by the window, looking at Jiang Yue with a serious expression. "Do you think our method won't work?"
Or is it that you don't want Yan Qiao to take your place and want to take the risk yourself?
“I didn’t say your method wouldn’t work, nor did I intend to take any risks myself.”
Jiang Yue explained, "I disagree because I think we might have a better way."
She knew her own limitations; going on a risky journey might not only fail to help Lu Jingnian, but would also drag them down.
"A better way?"
Lu Jingnian pursed his lips and looked at Jiang Yue seriously. "Okay, then tell me, do you have any better ideas?"
Jiang Yue looked around to make sure no one was there, then beckoned to Lu Jingnian with her finger, signaling him to come closer. When Lu Jingnian leaned closer to her, Jiang Yue whispered in his ear, "Have you forgotten that I have a master? When I went to deliver breakfast to his old man a couple of days ago, he told me that there is a method in metaphysics that can be used to deceive others by creating a fake."
If the factory hadn't had that accident today, she would be with her master right now. She had originally planned to go see her master today to ask if he had any ways to save her life in a crisis.
Lu Jingnian frowned as he listened. "I've heard before that some masters can indeed cut out some lifelike little animals from special paper, making it hard to tell the difference between the real and the fake."
Can a person do it too?
"I'm not entirely sure either; I'll have to ask Master," Jiang Yue replied.
Jiang Yue knew about this when her master told her about it the day he gave her the thumb ring.
"Let Yan Qiao stay here for a while while you take me to see Master. We'll ask Master if this method is feasible."
If possible, use my method; if not, use your method. What do you think?
Lu Jingnian and the others wanted Yan Qiao to lure out the gray wolf hiding in the shadows, but the gray wolf was so cunning that if it found an opportunity to capture Yan Qiao, she would be in danger.
Wouldn't it be better to use a dummy to replace yourself, which would reduce the risk without affecting the results?
Jiang Yue wasn't sure if her idea would work, so she didn't dare say it in the office but instead called Lu Jingnian out to discuss it with him.
If that doesn't work, just pretend she never mentioned it.
"I can agree to let you try the method you've come up with." Lu Jingnian thought for a moment and agreed to Jiang Yue's suggestion. If it could reduce the risk, they would certainly be willing.
"I'll go with you to see Old Chen in a bit to ask if your idea is really feasible?"
Jiang Yue breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Lu Jingnian had agreed.
“Then I’ll go back to my office to make some arrangements, and then I’ll go find my master.”
Jiang Yue said that it was still early, and if they went now, they could buy some things for their master on the way. She hadn't visited the old man today and didn't know if he had eaten properly.
"Um."
Lu Jingnian followed Jiang Yue back to the office, then called the factory manager over and made some production arrangements.
Then he went to the workshop to see Luo Xiao.
Luo Xiao is still repairing the machine; I heard he hasn't even had dinner yet.
When Jiang Yue went there, she specially asked someone to get food from the cafeteria and bring it to Luo Xiao.
Jiang Yue led Lu Jingnian to the machine and said to Luo Xiao, who was still busy, "Teacher Luo, I heard you haven't eaten yet, so I brought you some food."
Upon hearing Jiang Yue's voice, Luo Xiao quickly stopped what he was doing.
"Yueyue, you're here."
Upon seeing Jiang Yue, Luo Xiao smiled and said, "I'm sorry, I got so busy that I forgot to eat. I'll have to trouble you to bring me some food."
"Repairing machines is important, but your health is just as important."
Jiang Yue put the lunchbox aside. "Teacher Luo, I have to go out for a bit. If you need anything, just tell the factory manager. I'm just going out to take care of something and I'll be back soon. Don't worry."
The following sentence is Jiang Yue's words to comfort Luo Xiao.
She was afraid that if she left like this, Luo Xiao would cause trouble and make her come back.
"Don't worry, go ahead and do your thing. The machine parts have been replaced, and now we just need to assemble it. There shouldn't be any major problems."
Luo Xiao took the water handed to him by the person next to him, took a sip, and smiled as he spoke to Jiang Yue.
Jiang Yue spoke a few more words to Luo Xiao before leaving the workshop. She then told the factory manager and left with Lu Jingnian and the others.
When Lu Jingnian arrived, Yan Qiao was driving a car.
When they left, Yan Qiao rode in Ye Shi'an's car, while Jiang Yue and Lu Jingnian rode in another car. They were going to find Old Man Chen, and since they were going in a different direction from Ye Shi'an and the others, they parted ways when they reached the city.
After parting ways with Ye Shi'an and the others, Jiang Yue and Lu Jingnian went to the department store first, bought a bunch of things for Old Man Chen, and then went to the courtyard.
When Jiang Yue and Lu Jingnian arrived, Old Man Chen was having dinner.
On the stone table sat a plate of peanuts and a pot of wine, which the old man drank with great relish.
"Master, didn't you say we should eat properly? Does folding peanuts mean you're eating properly?"
Jiang Yue went over, took out the roast chicken she bought, prepared it in the kitchen, served it to Old Man Chen, poured a pot of tea, and brought out a set of bowls and chopsticks, asking Lu Jingnian to drink with Old Man Chen.
Lu Jingnian was injured and couldn't drink alcohol, so he drank tea instead of wine with Old Man Chen.
“Master, drinking too much alcohol is bad for your health. You should drink less. I’ll go cook you two more dishes.”
When Jiang Yue went to the kitchen just now, she saw that there were fresh vegetables in the kitchen, which were probably delivered by the neighbors.
Outside.
Old Chen looked at the roast chicken in front of him and smiled, his eyes narrowing.
"When I first saw this girl, I knew she would be a filial daughter, and my judgment was right."
As he spoke, Old Man Chen took a chicken leg, took a bite, and squinted his eyes, thoroughly enjoying it.
Lu Jingnian smiled and poured Old Man Chen a glass of wine. "Master, I have a question I'd like to ask you."
Old Chen paused in his eating and waved to him.
"You don't need to say anything, I know what you want to ask, but I can't tell you now. You'll understand in time."
"I haven't even said what I wanted to ask, and Master already guessed it?"
Lu Jingnian took a sip of tea and touched his shoulder. "It seems I guessed right. The fact that my wound hurts sometimes and sometimes is really related to Yueyue."
Old Chen glanced at him but didn't say anything.
This kid is even more talented than that girl, but unfortunately he's not destined for this line of work.
Lu Jingnian turned his head and glanced towards the kitchen. The kitchen chimney was emitting wisps of smoke, and through the window, he could clearly see Jiang Yue's busy figure inside.
Jiang Yue had indeed hidden herself very well these past two days, but Lu Jingnian still noticed something was amiss.
"Master, if you don't want to tell me, I won't ask anymore. I just want to know one thing: will what I'm doing have any impact on Yueyue?"
