Lu Yijian looked at Qian Duoduo and asked, "What's going on?"
Qian Duoduo shrugged and said, "I don't know either." Then she turned to Aunt Liu and asked, "How did you two get in touch with Tian Na?"
Aunt Liu said, "She was the one who contacted me. She even helped me get a job as a nanny at the Lu family's house."
Lu Yijian was taken aback. The fact that Aunt Liu was able to come to his house as a nanny was arranged by the logistics department. As for whether the logistics department had a Tian Na, he didn't know. After all, even if he was the mayor of Beijing, he couldn't possibly know everyone.
Qian Duoduo turned her head and said, "Uncle, you should look into Tian Na yourself."
Lu Yijian nodded and said, "Then what about this person?"
Lu Yuan said, "Leave it to me, so as not to alert the enemy."
Lu Yijian nodded and said, "It seems that the enemy has infiltrated our organization. This is a loophole that we need to correct."
Qian Duoduo did not comment on what Lu Yijian said. "They've been sending enemy agents to your house for years, and you didn't even notice. If it weren't for Lu Yuan, they probably wouldn't have even realized Aunt Liu was suspicious. You have absolutely no vigilance; it's truly astounding."
Lu Yuan looked at Qian Duoduo with reluctance, his heart filled with resentment and anger. He had finally managed to come home, only to encounter such a thing, leaving him extremely frustrated. He glared fiercely at the bound Aunt Liu, as if he wanted to vent all his anger on her.
He angrily stretched out one hand and easily lifted Aunt Liu, who weighed over 100 pounds. Aunt Liu looked desperate and had no power to resist, like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.
Lu Yijian sighed helplessly, turned his gaze to Qian Duoduo who was bowing her head and remaining silent, and said softly, "Duoduo, let's talk."
However, Qian Duoduo had absolutely no interest in chatting at this moment. She really didn't want to talk to Lu Yijian anymore, especially in this chaotic environment. Her family was like a sieve riddled with holes; what was there to talk about? The most important thing right now was to quickly follow the clues and find those hostile spies, not waste time here!
Lu Yijian could naturally see Qian Duoduo's reluctance, but his curiosity was already burning. He was eager to know everything that had happened since Qian Duoduo came to his home, and longed for an explanation, an answer.
Qian Duoduo said, "Uncle, Aunt Liu's matter is more urgent. You should check on her first, and make sure Tian Na doesn't find out."
Lu Yijian gave Qian Duoduo a deep look, a complex expression flashing in his eyes, but he quickly regained his composure and said calmly, "Come in."
Qian Duoduo sensed the helplessness and exhaustion in his tone, and a feeling of guilt welled up in her heart. But she knew now was not the time to blame herself, so she silently followed Lu Yijian into the room.
Lu Yijian sat back down on the sofa and said with a wry smile, "Should I be glad I didn't lie just now?"
Qian Duoduo remained silent, unsure how to answer the question. She understood Lu Yijian's meaning, but she also recognized the complexity and seriousness of the matter.
Lu Yijian sighed and continued, "I never expected that just wanting to enjoy some family time would save my life. If I had brought those important documents back, today might have been my last day."
Qian Duoduo listened quietly; she could sense Lu Yijian's inner pain and helplessness. Although it was a case of scheming against someone unintentionally, his lack of vigilance when there were outsiders at home was also a mistake.
Lu Yijian said with a self-deprecating smile, "Perhaps this is fate, always catching people off guard. But this lesson has taught me that I can no longer be careless."
Qian Duoduo bit her lip and said firmly, "Uncle, I believe you can find out the truth about this matter. We can't let the enemy get away with it."
Lu Yijian looked at the little girl in front of him, a hint of relief flashing in his eyes. He nodded and said, "Yes, thank you, Duoduo."
The two fell silent again. They both knew that the days ahead would not be easy, but it was a reality they had to face and a way to resolve the situation.
Qian Duoduo thought to herself: Why are you telling me all this? I can't help you salvage anything. In the power struggles between you big shots, it's often the small fry like us who are sacrificed. So, I'll keep quiet and not say anything.
Lu Yijian sighed and said, "I originally invited you here not only for a family dinner, but also to tell you that there is a place in Beijing that they want to develop, and they have land use rights for sale. I thought that since you like building houses, you might like it here."
Hearing this, Qian Duoduo thought to herself: This uncle is really a good person. She thought what he said made a lot of sense, so she asked, "Uncle, where is this place?"
Looking at Qian Duoduo's expression, Lu Yijian suddenly laughed and teased, "You little rascal, were you just determined not to talk to me?"
Qian Duoduo quickly explained, "Uncle, why would you think of me like that? I've always thought you were a very wise person. To be able to serve as the mayor of Beijing, one needs to have extraordinary wisdom and decisive decision-making ability."
Lu Yijian watched Qian Duoduo's beaming flattery and couldn't help but feel a little smug. He smiled and asked, "Want to know where it is?" Seeing Qian Duoduo nod, he continued, "Do you still have that health-preserving wine?"
Upon hearing this, Qian Duoduo quickly nodded and replied, "Yes, of course, but you can't drink too much of this stuff!" She muttered to herself, thinking that although she had several large vats of this wine, it was really precious and she couldn't bear to drink too much of it.
Lu Yijian said without any politeness, "Okay, get me a few more bottles later, I'll drink them when I treat people to dinner." He thought to himself that such good wine should not be drunk for free, especially since the feeling of lightness in his body after drinking it really made him feel twenty years younger.
Qian Duoduo and Lu Yijian started talking about the land they had discussed, which greatly piqued Qian Duoduo's interest. It was practically free money for her! She had always thought that her uncle was a very good person.
When Lu Yuan returned, he saw Qian Duoduo sitting in the living room having tea with Liu Wan. He sat down next to Qian Duoduo very familiarly, and his arm flashed behind Qian Duoduo, making it look like he was holding Qian Duoduo in his arms.
Qian Duoduo, who was originally going to stay here, saw Lu Yuan constantly giving her meaningful glances, so she could only apologize to Liu Wan. After all, this was her real boyfriend, and it was a rare opportunity to see him during her vacation.
Liu Wan smiled and nodded in agreement as she looked at Lu Yuan, who was as clingy as a lapdog.
Lu Yuan immediately helped Qian Duoduo pack her things happily, and then cheerfully took the little girl's hand and left the government compound.
