Chapter 474: Tell the Truth
Xi Jingyue's mouth twitched slightly. If he hadn't known what someone was thinking in advance, he might have really believed her high-sounding words.
At this moment, Xi Jingyue's attention was on Duanrao, and he did not notice that someone was staring at him fiercely beside the two of them, trying to find more clues on his face to support his guess.
As expected, as soon as Duan Rao said this, Lu Lingyu and the others looked over immediately.
Lu Lingyu raised his eyebrows and asked in a low voice, "Have you found out who is helping that woman?"
Xi Jingyue did not make it public, but only told Lu Lingyu about it.
"It's him!" Lu Lingyu was surprised when he learned the other party's identity. "This old guy is quite old, but he has a lot of lust. He actually..."
Lu Lingyu was halfway through his speech when he suddenly remembered that the heroine in this story seemed to be a member of his Xi family, so he simply asked tentatively: "Your cousin..."
"She is she, I am me, her home is her home, my home is my home."
With just these two simple sentences, Lu Lingyu already understood what Xi Jingyue meant.
"I feel relieved when you say that. Don't bother with this matter. I can take care of it right away."
With his words, Duanrao finally put his mind at ease.
After coming out of the police station, Lu Jiarou personally saw Duanrao and others off.
Before leaving, she did not forget to transfer the commission promised to Duan Rao to her, and even doubled it on her own initiative.
"Thank you so much for what happened today, especially Miss Du. Without your help, my stupid brother would have to be single for the rest of his life, and even be sold and have to pay people for it. He is busy explaining things to his beloved little baby now, so I, as her sister, will help him express his gratitude."
It can be seen that Lu Jiarou is really happy. The tone of her voice can't help but rise slightly. When she mentions her brother's love, she is no longer as bitter and resentful as before. Obviously, compared to Xi Yanjia, she is extremely satisfied with this white moonlight who once really helped her brother.
Given the stupid things her brother had done before, it would probably take some time for the two of them to get along before they can achieve a happy ending.
In this regard, Lu Jiarou felt no pressure and even felt a little gloating.
It's his fault! He was so stupid before that he could make a mistake in such an important matter. He should suffer a little more and learn his lesson.
Du Anrao saw through her thoughts at a glance. His eyes swept between her and Lu Lingyu, and he couldn't help but look again at the ridiculously thick red line in their hands.
She has seen too many weird and melodramatic love stories during this period, and she is in urgent need of a sweet love to sustain her life and make her believe that there is still true and sincere love between two parties in this world.
The situation of these two people did not disappoint Duanrao's expectations.
As I just said, the two of them are childhood sweethearts who grew up together. Although Lu Lingyu, the gangster son, is reckless, he has been in love since he was a child. In addition to the reasons just mentioned, another important reason why he can't stand his mortal enemy is that Lu Jiarou has been close to him since she was a child.
At that time, Lu Lingyu didn't know what love was. He only knew how to target his love rivals and protect his future wife tightly, fearing that others would covet her.
The turning point for the two was after Lu's father's business failed. Compared to her younger brother who was raised to be somewhat naive, Lu Jiarou could be said to have taken over the burden of the family very early on. When the company was on the verge of bankruptcy, besides Lu's father, she was the one with the greatest pressure in the family.
As the saying goes, a person's true character is revealed in times of adversity. The predicament of the Lu family gave Lu Lingyu a reason to show his courtesy, but he was not very good at speaking. At first, he made it sound like he was taking advantage of someone's misfortune by offering his voluntary help, which made Lu Jiarou very angry. He almost turned a sweet love into a bloody and abusive relationship full of misunderstandings.
Fortunately, Lu Jiarou is not a delicate and weak little white lotus. When something happens, she cries before she says a word. If Lu Lingyu dares to make her angry, she will beat him.
Just like that, after being beaten several times, someone finally learned to speak, and after Lu Jiarou beat someone several times, she finally realized the true heart hidden behind the other person's broken mouth. The two of them smoothly moved towards a double-arrow HE without any misunderstandings or classic scenes of physical, mental and liver abuse.
[Oh, this is a gangster dumb-mouthed loyal prince x a rich sober and arrogant young lady! Sure enough, a stable and healthy relationship is much more reliable than those abusive relationships. No wonder the sister saw that her brother's relationship was weird at first glance, it turns out she is an experienced person! ]
Lu Jiarou noticed that Duan Rao had been staring at her and Lu Lingyu, and her heart skipped a beat. She asked tentatively, "Is there something wrong between us?"
"It's okay, it's okay. I just saw that you two are a rare good match, a perfect match made in heaven, so I couldn't help but take a few more glances."
Everyone likes to hear nice words, especially for those who are in love. Duanrao's words are the greatest affirmation of their relationship.
"I said that Miss Du is different from those fake masters who cheat people. She only speaks the truth, hehehe..."
Everyone: “…”
Lu Jiarou wished she could dig a hole and bury herself on the spot. She felt so ashamed that she hurriedly fled with Lu Lingyu and dared not ask any more questions.
After they left, Duanrao and a few others were left at the gate.
Xie Jingyao took the initiative to break the silence: "It's getting late, I'll take you back."
Duan Rao was just about to find an opportunity to test Xi Jingyue, and suddenly turned to look at him: "Mr. Xi, do you have anything else to do later? I have something to ask you, can you please take me back in person?"
Xi Jingyue was a little surprised by Du Anrao's request. Usually he was the one who offered to send her off, but this was the first time Du Anrao asked him for help.
Xi Jingyue agreed without saying a word. Du Yuxi also wanted to follow, but was tripped by Xie Jingyao. She watched the two of them get into the car and glared at him in frustration.
Xie Jingyao:?
As soon as the car started, Duanrao got straight to the point: "I heard that Mr. Ji had help from a noble person, and Zhao Zhao's custody lawsuit went smoothly, all thanks to him hiring a very good lawyer. I heard you say before that your former cousin's family is a family of lawyers. Could it be that you introduced this lawyer to Mr. Ji?"
Although Xi Jingyue was a little surprised that Duan Rao asked this, he still answered truthfully: "Yes."
"I didn't realize that Mr. Xi and his ex-cousin-law were so familiar with each other in private..."
This seemed like a life-threatening question! Xi Jingyue shuddered and subconsciously explained, "No, no, no, you misunderstood. I didn't know her at all before. It was just that day when I heard you talk about her family, I felt that she was also very pitiful, so I secretly helped her and my aunt, and that's how we met."
Du Anrao didn't know whether to believe it or not, and said in a deep voice, "Is that so?"
[Is it a coincidence? I always feel like Mr. Xi seems to know a lot of things secretly. ]
Xi Jingyue's heart suddenly began to tighten.
[Does he know that the unlucky person who exchanged engagement cards with him in the original plot was me? ]
Xi Jingyue:?!
