Wen Lu looked at Wang Jinyu with her big, moist eyes. She felt that Wang Jinyu must know a lot about the Yan family, so she needed him to answer her questions.
"The Yan family is a large family. Yan Luo's grandfather had three sons. The eldest son had four children. Yan Luo was the third child. The second son was Yan Nuo's father. He went abroad before and was over thirty years old when he returned to China and had Yan Nuo."
"Yan Luo also has a younger uncle who is also in business. He owns shares in most of the entertainment venues in Beijing. He's quite powerful. He has a daughter, but I haven't met her. You can ask Yan Luo if you're curious."
Wang Jinyu didn't know much about the Yan family, but he had a good relationship with Old Master Yan and his father, and Yan Luo had followed him around since she was a child, so he knew some things about the Yan family, but he didn't find out the specifics.
"If you want to know their detailed information, I can have someone pull it up for you right away..."
Seeing that Wen Lu remained silent, Wang Jinyu lowered his head to look at the little girl nestled in his arms. The little girl had already fallen asleep in his arms. He looked at the little girl sleeping peacefully, and his brows furrowed involuntarily.
Ling He said that the more easily she gets tired, the worse her health is, which means the girl's health isn't as good as she claims.
Wang Jinyu carefully picked up Wen Lu, who nestled into his arms and wrapped one arm around his neck, letting him carry her away.
When Wang Jinyu put Wen Lu down and came out of the bedroom, he saw Gu Yao sitting in the living room, holding a special cell phone. She made no attempt to hide from Wang Jinyu when he came out.
"How is Xiao Lulu's health? Ever since I met her, I've sensed a sickly beauty in her. She must not be in good health?"
Hearing Gu Yao suddenly show concern for Wen Lu, Wang Jinyu stopped in his tracks as he was heading to the study. He turned to look at Gu Yao, wondering what she wanted to ask him.
Gu Yao met Wang Jinyu's somewhat cold eyes, smiled gently, shrugged, and spoke in a calm tone.
"Don't be nervous. I really like Wen Lu. I consider her a true friend. If you need anything, I can help you contact my friend, Ghost Hand. She used to be Phantom's best friend. You've heard that when our boss takes on a job and hires Ghost Hand, Ghost Hand has never refused."
"Although our boss is in trouble now and is no longer here, her network of connections is still there, and I believe they will give me some face."
As Gu Yao spoke, she took out her phone and sent a message to Ghost Hand, then waved her phone at Wang Jinyu.
At this moment, Wang Jinyu was completely shocked. His mind was filled with what Gu Yao had just said about the Phantom and the Ghost Hand. He had a bold idea in his mind: he felt that he had discovered Wen Lu's true identity.
"Are you sure your eldest son is dead? Didn't I hear that Qi Nian didn't want to acknowledge Mei Ying's death? Wasn't the official announcement that he was missing?"
Wang Jinyu walked heavily to the sofa and sat down opposite Gu Yao. He was now eager to know about Phantom, and he felt that he was close to the truth.
Just then, Wang Jinyu thought of the way Wen Lu looked at Gu Yao. She felt that the way Wen Lu looked at Gu Yao was not like that of a new friend. That kind of doting yet unassuming look could only be shown to an old friend.
There's also the way Wen Lu sniped, his skills and courage, and that terrifying and powerful information network.
So her true identity is Phantom. No wonder she never dared to tell him her true identity...
In that instant, Wang Jinyu was somewhat confused. Did this woman genuinely like him, or was she approaching him with an ulterior motive, wanting the core he possessed...?
Gu Yao raised an eyebrow at Wang Jinyu's strange expression, then approached him mysteriously.
"Wang Jinyu, tell me the truth, are you still hung up on my boss? I heard that you still have a picture of him in your drawer. It's actually a pity, because my boss was quite interested in you back then."
"It's all Cather's fault for getting the information wrong. She mistook that show-off for you. My boss lost interest after just one glance, and that led to a series of embarrassing incidents."
"But everything has changed. My eldest daughter really died in that explosion. The chip and her personal tracking device were found at the crime scene. Even if we don't want to admit it, there's nothing we can do..."
Before Gu Yao could finish speaking, Wang Jinyu suddenly stood up from the sofa, walked to the door, grabbed his coat, put it on, and left. His steps seemed unsteady, as if he had been through something.
Gu Yao watched Wang Jinyu's departing figure, her brows furrowing slightly. How could she not know that Wang Jinyu was so deeply in love with her boss?
Thinking of this, Gu Yao suddenly thought of Wen Lu. She unconsciously frowned, feeling that Wang Jinyu was a scumbag. He was already with a young girl, but he was still thinking about her boss. It was really shameless.
Gu Yao sat on the sofa, looking at the messages on the black market. There were two orders, both targeting Wen Lu. Gu Yao raised her eyebrows unconsciously as she looked at the message. She smiled slightly, thinking that Wen Lu's net worth was indeed not low. The two orders combined were already in the eight figures, which was comparable to the price on the wanted poster.
When Wang Jinyu returns, she will ask him if he needs to hire someone to protect Wen Lu. It doesn't have to be much, just six figures will do.
After leaving the Chinese-style manor, Wang Jinyu returned to his apartment, quickly went to his study, and began to search through the computer's usage data, trying to determine if Wen Lu had been looking for any useful information on his computer.
He needed to get a definite answer through this method; he wanted to know whether Wen Lu genuinely liked him or had ulterior motives in approaching him.
Looking at the clean archive, Wang Jinyu smiled bitterly. To be able to delete the data so cleanly, there must be something he was hiding. It turns out he really was a clown.
Wang Jinyu shut down his computer, stood up from his seat, walked to the wine cabinet, took out a bottle of wine, and drank it all in one gulp.
After Wang Jinyu finished a bottle of wine, his thoughts became clearer and clearer. All the scenes from when he met Wen Lu to the present day echoed in his mind.
Every single image of Wen Lu echoed in her mind. At that moment, she finally understood why she couldn't help but think of that red figure every time she saw Wen Lu. It turned out that the two of them were the same person.
