Chapter 391 Surveillance
Xiaoman nodded and exclaimed, and Jiang Ning could tell that Xiaoman really agreed with Lu Junyan's suggestion.
She initially thought that setting off fireworks was too dangerous for a one-year-old child, but since Lu Junyan was holding him in his arms, it should be safe.
After hesitating for a moment, Jiang Ning nodded in agreement.
Over here, Lu Junyan is holding Xiaoman as they set off sparklers, while over there, Jiang Ning raises his phone and records a video of Xiaoman.
This was Xiaoman's first time setting off sparklers, so it should definitely be recorded as a memento.
If you want to capture all the light from the fireworks, then Lu Junyan will definitely be in the shot as well.
Jiang Ning stared at Xiaoman and Lu Junyan's figures in the video on his phone, feeling a mix of emotions he couldn't quite describe.
After recording for a while, she put her phone away.
At that moment, Lu Junyan handed her a sparkler.
"Let's release them together!"
Jiang Ning smiled and took the sparkler.
She still remembered that Lu Junyan had once set off fireworks for her.
High above the clouds in Country C, Lu Junyan prepared a drone light and fireworks show for her, similar to the one Bai Yichen had once arranged.
That scene was clearly far more spectacular and exciting than the sparklers I'm holding right now.
But Jiang Ning felt neither moved nor joyful at the time.
The sparkler was lit, and the flames it emitted were golden, with occasional glimpses of beautiful red and green.
Jiang Ning thought that as an adult, and a mother, she wouldn't still enjoy playing this game.
But she still couldn't resist waving the sparkler.
Watching the golden flames draw circles in the air, Jiang Ning's mood improved inexplicably.
Lu Junyan was initially focused on holding Xiaoman and setting off sparklers, but gradually, his gaze involuntarily fell on Jiang Ning.
Jiang Ning smiled.
It wasn't a faint, polite smile, nor was it a forced, bitter laugh.
It was a smile more radiant than fireworks, as brilliant as a flower and as dazzling as fire.
Lu Junyan could tell that Jiang Ning was genuinely happy.
"If I had known you liked playing this, I would have bought it for you before."
Lu Junyan's words drifted into Jiang Ning's ears.
"When I was very young, I envied other kids who could play with this."
After listening to Jiang Ning's words, Lu Junyan did not ask Jiang Ning why he couldn't play with it when he was a child.
He now knows about Jiangning's past.
He knew that Jiang Ning's childhood was not happy.
Living in a family that was considered a jinx, Jiang Ning received absolutely no normal parental love.
Lu Junyan could not have imagined what wealthy families would do. The Lin family would ensure Jiang Ning had enough to eat and wear, but they would absolutely not buy him useless things like sparklers.
When the sparkler in Jiang Ning's hand went out, Lu Junyan immediately handed Jiang Ning another one and lit it for him.
That box of sparklers was originally meant for Xiaoman to play with, but Jiang Ning got hooked on it.
The family of three were having a great time playing with sparklers together.
The night was thick, and the smoke of battle had dissipated.
When Lu Junyan carried Xiaoman back to the car, Xiaoman was already asleep.
Perhaps because she had enjoyed setting off sparklers, Xiaoman's sleeping face was even sweeter than usual, and her smile was so endearing it could melt anyone's heart.
When they got home, Lin Yueheng and Chu Yao were already asleep.
Lu Junyan carried the sleeping Xiaoman into the room and gently placed her in the crib.
"Lu Junyan, thank you for today. Xiaoman and I had a lot of fun."
Hearing Jiang Ning express his gratitude, Lu Junyan smiled.
It turns out that Jiang Ning is so easily satisfied.
Just like a one-year-old child.
Lu Junyan couldn't help but recall that when he married Jiang Ning, he would always ask Xiao Zhang to prepare gifts for Jiang Ning during holidays.
However, it's because Jiang Ning is his wife.
He didn't consider Jiang Ning's personal preferences at all at that time.
It was prepared simply according to the style that Chu Qingxue used to like.
No woman dislikes expensive jewelry, beautiful clothes, and shoes...
And the one thing he has no shortage of is money.
Lu Junyan once thought that Jiang Ning was just like other women, very superficial.
In retrospect, he was the superficial one.
He never truly understood Jiangning.
Compared to expensive jewelry, beautiful clothes and shoes, a box of sparklers is actually more likely to please Jiang Ning.
What are you thinking about?
It was rare to see Lu Junyan in a daze, so Jiang Ning couldn't help but feel curious.
"It's nothing..." Lu Junyan shook his head and said naturally, "I just think that since you and Xiaoman like sparklers so much, I'll buy them for you to set off every year during the Spring Festival."
The word "every year" froze the smile on Jiang Ning's lips.
Lu Junyan's seemingly casual words actually concealed deep meaning and scheming.
While tucking Xiaoman in, Jiang Ning said to Lu Junyan, "No need... Maybe Shen Feiyang will be the one to set off sparklers with Xiaoman in the future!"
A hint of displeasure flashed in Lu Junyan's deep eyes, but he didn't say anything more.
Just as he was about to leave Jiangning's room, his phone suddenly rang, and the caller ID showed it was Xiao Zhang.
"Hey Zhang, have you found anything?"
Upon hearing Lu Junyan's words, Jiang Ning's ears immediately perked up.
To avoid waking Xiaoman, Lu Junyan went outside the bedroom to answer the phone.
If it weren't for Xiao Zhang's phone call, Jiang Ning had originally planned to stay in the bedroom with Xiao Man.
But it's so late, Xiao Zhang wouldn't call Lu Junyan for no reason.
The thought that her investigation might have yielded some results prompted Jiang Ning to follow her out, arriving at the study behind Lu Junyan.
Lu Junyan turned on his laptop in the study, connected it to his phone, and watched the video sent by Xiao Zhang with Jiang Ning.
It must be said that Xiao Zhang is indeed quite capable; he actually managed to obtain surveillance footage from two years ago, a few days before Lin Jingcheng passed away, near the Lin Group and Wang Jun's law firm.
In Jiang Ning's view, it would be impossible to alter the will without bribing Wang Jun.
Once Lin Jingcheng dies, the will that Wang Jun reads aloud will be the real will.
Therefore, Jiang Ning and Lu Junyan both believed that in order to investigate Lin Jingcheng's death and the issue of his will, they must start with Wang Jun.
"This...is Wang Jun..."
Wang Jun appeared in the video sent by Xiao Zhang.
Wang Jun seemed a bit furtive, frequently glancing behind him and around, as if afraid of being followed or discovered by someone.
Jiang Ning and Lu Junyan noticed that Wang Jun made several turns and ended up in a small alley, which had no surveillance cameras.
"Let's watch the last video again!" Jiang Ning suggested.
"good."
Lu Junyan clicked on the previous video.
"Stop for a moment."
Lu Junyan pressed the pause button as Jiang Ning instructed.
"This car..."
Jiang Ning pointed to a red Ford in the video.
The surveillance camera couldn't capture the license plate number clearly.
“I think this is Lin Wanrong’s car.”
Lu Junyan knew, of course, that Lin Wanrong drove a very flashy red modified Ford.
"She and Wang Jun were having a secret rendezvous... and she was driving her usual car?"
