Lin Yusheng stood there, wanting to speak but not knowing what to say.
Lu Zhengye finished his water and said, "Go back to sleep."
Have you finished your work?
Lu Zhengye: "No."
Lin Yusheng bit her lip. She clearly didn't see any documents on his desk, and the computer screen didn't show any emails.
It felt like I was lying to her.
"Is there anything I can help you with?" Lin Yusheng asked.
Lu Zhengye looked at her quietly.
Lin Yusheng felt very uncomfortable under his gaze and couldn't help rubbing her fingers together. "I can't sleep without you."
"You can't sleep if I'm here, right?" Lu Zhengye sneered.
He was still angry about what she had just said.
Lin Yusheng sighed softly, "I didn't know you had collected so much evidence of Lu Zechuan's crimes. I know that you hurt him, and there must be a reason for that. You must have learned about what happened at the Lu residence from Bai Ning."
"Ah Ye, I'll say it again: if you hurt someone to protect someone you care about, then there's nothing wrong with that. I don't think you're cruel either. You've been very, very good to me."
"But it is precisely because you are good to me that I am even more afraid that something will happen to you, and even more afraid that I will cause something to happen to you."
Lin Yusheng suddenly choked up as she spoke.
She was too selfish. On one hand, she thought Lu Zhengye could protect her and her family, but on the other hand, she wanted him to be clean and innocent.
From Lu Zhengye's perspective, he must have been very disappointed.
As soon as Lin Yusheng cried, all the anger in Lu Zhengye's heart disappeared.
Helplessly, he reached out and pulled Lin Yusheng onto his lap.
He didn't gently wipe away the tears on her cheeks. "I'm not crying, why are you crying?"
"Then cry, I'll comfort you."
The two looked at each other and smiled.
Lu Zhengye said with disgust, "It's so ugly."
But his hands honestly wiped away the tears that had just streamed down her cheeks.
Lin Yusheng buried her face in Lu Zhengye's arms, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that just now."
"Are you really concerned about me?" Lu Zhengye's tone was tinged with nervousness and fear.
"Of course, do you know that if it were found out that you were involved in this, you would be in jail for intentional assault?"
Lu Zhengye's frustration vanished completely. "Don't worry, your man is very capable."
"But the net of heaven is vast, its meshes are wide, yet nothing escapes it; it's not the ten thousand that's worrisome, but the one in ten thousand."
“Country A’s laws are good, but that doesn’t mean the law enforcement officers are good. If Lu Zechuan hadn’t been disgraced today, the Lu family could have protected him for life.”
"This world is not so simple, especially people's hearts."
Lu Zhengye told his girl this cruel truth in a calm tone.
Lin Yusheng was speechless.
If it weren't for his status as the eldest son of the Lu family, Lu Zechuan would have been imprisoned long ago for all the crimes he committed.
There will be no second wave of turmoil now.
Lin Yusheng gradually accepted Lu Zhengye's point of view.
If some illegal means are not used, Lu Zechuan will not receive the punishment he deserves.
Moreover, when Lu Zechuan and Deng Xingwen conspired to frame her and her family in her previous life, the methods they used were no cleaner than these.
Looking at Lin Yusheng's slightly reddened eyelids, Lu Zhengye softened. "From now on, I will tell you about my plans in advance so you won't worry anymore, okay?"
Since meeting Lin Yusheng, he has gradually broken his own principles and made concessions for her time and time again.
Lin Yusheng nodded frantically.
Lu Zhengye picked her up and stood up.
Lin Yusheng still remembered the lie Lu Zhengye had just told her.
She asked, feigning seriousness, "Aren't you working anymore?"
Lu Zhengye could easily tell she was holding a grudge. He chuckled and said, "What's more important than sleeping with you than work?"
Lin Yusheng's face flushed red instantly.
A sliver of light shone through the window at the end of the corridor.
Lin Yusheng shrank her neck. "It's almost dawn."
"Then what?"
Lin Yusheng, "Try to control yourself."

When Lu Zechuan woke up, his nose was filled with the smell of disinfectant.
Lu Jing and Lu Jiwen investigated for two days, but still had no clue who had injured Lu Zechuan.
So they were all waiting in the ward, waiting for Lu Zechuan to wake up so they could ask him directly.
Xie Yuqiong sat blankly in the chair, staring at her son; she had been like this for the past two days.
So when Lu Zechuan made a move, she was the first to notice.
"Chuan'er is awake, Chuan'er is awake, my poor child."
Xie Yuqiong wept uncontrollably, burying her head in her son's chest in grief.
Lu Zechuan's mind was still blank. "Mom, what's wrong? What's wrong with me?"
He tried to move, which immediately aggravated the wound beneath him, causing him to cry out in pain and break out in a cold sweat.
Xie Yuqiong immediately reassured him, "Chuan'er, don't move."
Lu Zechuan gradually realized that something was wrong with him, but his mind was blank and he didn't know what had happened before the incident.
Driven by the pain, he reached down to touch his lower body, but felt nothing but pain.
Lu Zechuan felt like he was dreaming, but the pain felt so real.
He was on the verge of collapse, looking at his father and grandfather with disbelief, silently seeking their confirmation.
Lu Jiwen closed his eyes, his lips were tightly pursed, and there were dark circles under his eyes, indicating that he hadn't rested properly for several days.
He tried his best to restrain himself.
Lu Jingyi's hair was also whiter than before.
Lu Zechuan asked with trembling lips, "Dad, Grandpa, what's wrong with me?"
Lu Jing has more experience than Lu Jiwen, so he is more composed.
He asked, "Do you remember what happened that night?"
"What happened? Grandpa, what happened? How could I... how could this happen? Grandpa, who killed me? Ahhhhh!"
Lu Zechuan screamed in despair, clutching his head as if he had forgotten a piece of his memory.
No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't remember.
He had just gone out for drinks with friends, so why did he wake up like this?
He had no recollection of what happened after he finished drinking.
Lu Jiwen sensed something was wrong. He stepped forward, pulled Lu Zechuan's hand away from his head, and asked, "You don't know who harmed you? Do you remember what happened that night?"
Following Lu Jiwen's instructions, Lu Zechuan tried to recall what he had done. He only remembered that he was drunk and then called his driver...
What happened afterward was a complete blank in his mind, no matter how hard he tried to recall it; his head would even ache when he tried desperately to remember.
Lu Zechuan was half-awake and half-asleep. He broke free from Lu Jiwen's hand, his eyes bloodshot, unwilling to accept his current situation, and started yelling and screaming while covering his head.
"I'm dreaming, I'm dreaming, I can't remember anything, ahhh."
Xie Yuqiong was startled by her son's reaction, but felt more heartache and worry.
With his vigorous movements, the wound that had not yet healed began to bleed again.
"Chuan'er, Chuan'er, what happened to you? Don't scare your mother, you're still injured."
