Since Dong Zhimeng is safe, Wen Lu will give Zhuge Peng a chance to help. She nodded faintly and spoke weakly.
"Then I'll have to trouble Uncle Zhuge with this matter. I hope Dong Zhimeng can come back tonight."
"I'll have my dad arrange for someone to look for Dong Zhimeng right now, and he can tell us as soon as he has any news."
As he spoke, Zhuge Peng took out his phone to make a call, leaving Wen Lu and Qian Lailai to walk out of the teaching building together.
Just as she reached the entrance of the teaching building, Yan Luo strode over, stopped in front of Wen Lu, looked Wen Lu up and down, and asked in a calm and unhurried tone.
"Are you alright? Qian Lailai told me you were worried about Dong Zhimeng. I was concerned that you might be emotionally agitated and have health problems. Is there anything I can help you with?"
"Not for now. We already know that Dong Zhimeng was taken away by her uncle, but we don't know what her uncle wants to do or who instructed him. Zhuge Peng said he can investigate, so let him investigate this matter."
After saying that, Wen Lu thought of what she had talked about with Yan Luo that morning. She looked up at Yan Luo and said, "You've seen my medical records, right? You can ask Ling He about my condition. Don't pin your hopes for curing me on Ghost Hand anymore. Her hand is injured and she can't have surgery."
Wen Lu didn't want to reveal her identity, nor did she want to say that she was dead, as she felt that the matter was somewhat unlucky. So she could only hope that Yan Luo would accept the fact that her Ghost Hand's hand was injured.
"I'm counting on you for my future surgeries. You won't let me down, right?"
After Wen Lu finished speaking, he looked at Yan Luo seriously, but Yan Luo's mind was not on Wen Lu at the moment. He was thinking about the Ghost Hand's injury.
He gave a casual reply and then quickly left, intending to find someone to ask about Ghost Hand's injury.
Qian Lailai watched Yan Luo's departing figure, reached out and gently tugged at Wen Lu's sleeve. She pointed at Yan Luo's departing figure and asked Wen Lu with a puzzled look.
"Junior Uncle, who is Ghost Hand? Brother Yan seemed quite upset after hearing this news. Could it be that he has a good relationship with Ghost Hand?"
Hearing Qian Lailai's question, Wen Lu simply shook her head. She was trying to recall whether she had ever known Yan Luo, and why Yan Luo had such a strong reaction when she heard that Ghost Hand was injured. Her distraught appearance didn't seem like an act.
"I don't know either. I'm hungry now. Let's go eat. I just smelled incense on you. Did no one know when you were secretly telling fortunes?"
Just as Qian Lailai returned with the surveillance video, Wen Lu smelled incense on her. She knew without guessing what she had been doing. Fortunately, she knew that Dong Zhimeng was not in danger, otherwise, she would not have been able to remain so calm here.
"No, I secretly lit incense and cast a divination on the way. I could only predict that Dong Zhimeng would not be in danger, but I couldn't predict anything else. Junior Uncle, what do you think those people want to do by taking Dong Zhimeng away?"
Qian Lailai looked at Wen Lu with a blank expression. Wen Lu shook her head. If she knew those people's purpose, wouldn't this matter be resolved? She wouldn't have to worry about Dong Zhimeng here.
"I don't know either, but I think this matter is related to Su Yu or the Wen family. After all, the Wen family needs Dong Zhimeng to speak out if they want to clear Su Yu's name. Let's wait for Zhuge Peng's investigation results. As long as Dong Zhimeng is not in danger, that's fine."
On the way to the cafeteria, Wen Lu called Ma Bochen and asked him to investigate Dong Zhimeng's uncle. She also asked Ma Bochen to tell Dong Zhimeng's parents that Dong Zhimeng could not leave school at noon and could not go home until tomorrow when the holiday started. She told them to go home and wait for her.
Wen Lu could only stall for time for now and dared not tell Dong Zhimeng's parents about her disappearance, lest they become emotional and disrupt the rescue plan.
At this moment, Dong Zhimeng was taken to a small, dilapidated house by Liang Junshan. Dong Zhimeng, who had just regained consciousness, looked at Liang Junshan with a wary expression.
Looking at Dong Zhimeng's nervous expression, Liang Junshan smiled smugly and spoke in a very triumphant tone.
"I didn't expect you to be so easy to fool, Dong Zhimeng. Don't be afraid. Your uncle brought you here because he has a favor to ask. As long as you agree to record a video for your uncle, your uncle promises to send you back to school immediately."
As Liang Junshan spoke, he pulled over a chair and sat down, casually tossing Dong Zhimeng's phone onto the table beside him.
Dong Zhimeng didn't know what the video Jiang Junshan mentioned was. She still wanted to know about her parents. She had left school with Liang Junshan after hearing him say that her parents had an accident in another province.
What she didn't expect was that she had just gotten into the car and hadn't even had a chance to ask about her parents when she fainted in Liang Junshan's car. When she opened her eyes again, she was already in this dilapidated little house.
"Uncle, my parents...are they alright? What video are you talking about? Didn't you say you'd take me to see my parents?"
Since separating from her parents, Dong Zhimeng has only contacted them about once a month. She doesn't have much contact with them, and even during winter and summer vacations, she finds part-time jobs. She has forgotten how long it has been since she last saw her parents.
After the incident at her home, Dong Zhimeng shut herself off. Even when her parents tried to get close to her, she chose to avoid them. She felt that the trouble she had caused had ruined her family, and that as long as they stayed away from her, they wouldn't be implicated.
She had a deep-seated resentment; she felt that she had caused her once happy family to fall apart, and she felt very sorry for her parents and younger brother. Therefore, she felt that not contacting them was the best outcome.
Hearing that Dong Zhimeng was still concerned about her parents, Jiang Junshan gave a perfunctory reply, no longer in the mood to coax the child, and directly made a request:
"If you agree to film a video to clarify that Su Yu has never hurt you, and that all the recent rumors are about Wen Lu framing Su Yu, I'll take you to meet your parents right away, how about that?"
Upon hearing Liang Junshan's words, even the simple-minded Dong Zhimeng understood Liang Junshan's purpose in bringing him to this place.
"Uncle, you're lying to me, aren't you? You lied to me that my parents had an accident so you could bring me out to clear Su Yu's name and then slander Wen Lu?"
Seeing that Dong Zhimeng had suddenly become clever, Liang Junshan lost interest in pretending any longer. If it weren't for Mrs. Wen's insistence that Dong Zhimeng willingly record the video for better results, he wouldn't have had the patience and would have already taken action against her.
