Whether it was to save lives or out of genuine kindness, Lu Yi ultimately reserved his gentleness for others.
She walked aimlessly down the street when a car suddenly stopped beside her.
Fan Huijun rolled down the car window, looking apologetic.
"Xiaoyue, I'm sorry, can I say a few words to you?"
Liang Shiyue felt a complete emptiness in her heart. She nodded blankly, opened the door, and got into the car.
Fan Huijun started the car.
"I'm sorry, I didn't expect things to turn out this way. I shouldn't have bothered you... but the money is paid!"
“You can’t go abroad to study without someone by your side. Your aunt told me that she really wants to go with you, but the expenses for both of you are not a small amount!”
Liang Shiyue wiped away her tears and stared at her in surprise.
Her mother hadn't mentioned it to her, so it seemed the rift between mother and daughter was beyond her imagination.
"Don't rush to refuse; having money on hand will always make things easier!"
"In addition, I own a house right next to your new school. I studied at that school a few years ago after having a falling out with my family."
"Here's the property deed, the keys, and the address. Oh, and there's a car in the garage that hasn't been serviced in a long time. If you don't mind, could you get it serviced for me? Let it run around every now and then..."
You have to clean up the mess you started.
Fan Huijun felt from the bottom of her heart that Lu Yi owed Liang Shiyue something.
Ultimately, it was all the Fan family's fault. It was the father who overstepped his bounds and put a tight rein on Lu Yi, cutting off any possibility between Lu Yi and Liang Shiyue.
Looking into Fan Huijun's eyes, Liang Shiyue finally couldn't hold back and buried her face in her knees, sobbing uncontrollably.
She was so reluctant to part with Lu Yi, but he belonged to someone else now...
Fan Huijun waited until she had finished crying, then handed her a tissue.
"Xiaoyue, I envy families with siblings. Putting aside your relationship with Lu Yi, I consider you my younger sister."
"Tell me when you leave, and I'll see you and Auntie off. If you encounter any trouble over there, just let me know!"
After venting her emotions, Liang Shiyue felt much lighter.
She nodded gratefully.
"Actually, I'm not short of money. The milk tea shop that Lu Yi and I invested in made a lot of money, and Lu Yi gave it all to me!"
She felt like she hadn't earned anything, and suddenly receiving hundreds of thousands of yuan felt like the Fan family had bought out her relationship with Lu Yi; it was as painful as having her flesh torn out.
"A bubble tea shop?"
Fan Huijun thought to herself, "That shop has already been transferred. It's good enough that Lu Yi didn't lose money. How could he possibly still have a profit?"
On second thought, it was probably just an excuse Lu Yi made up because he was afraid she wouldn't accept it!
"Oh, that little bit of money isn't enough. Deposit all of this and exchange it at the bank beforehand. If you don't understand anything, feel free to ask me anytime... Come on, let's add each other on WeChat!"
Fan Huijun patted her head, watched her go upstairs, and then started the car.
The news of Gu Keke jumping off a building for Lu Yi quickly went viral online.
I don't know who the troublemaker was, but they secretly recorded the video and included Liang Shiyue in the edit.
Those netizens who used to mock Liang Shiyue for being a freeloader and unworthy of Lu Yi have now turned against her, vehemently criticizing Gu Keke for stealing Lu Yi's love.
...
Under pressure from Huo Jingxi, Shen Licheng finally figured out Lin Xiaoya's situation.
"Such a fine young lady, getting involved with this kind of stuff, the Lin family's upbringing is truly eye-opening!"
Shen Licheng pushed the documents in front of Lu Baofei, ignoring Huo Jingxi who was smoking a cigarette.
"Miss Baofei, didn't you tell Uncle Lu about this before you inquired about it?"
Lu Baofei paused in flipping through the documents. "My dad? No, what does this have to do with him?"
Shen Licheng raised an eyebrow.
He glanced at Huo Jingxi's face.
"He said he was inquiring for a friend... It seems the rumors are true. Miss Baofei broke ties with the Lu family for someone, haha!"
Lu Baofei blushed and glanced at Huo Jingxi.
Huo was looking down at her phone and seemed not to hear at all, so she quickly turned her head around.
"You believe those things? Everyone wants to be on the Huo family's platform right now. My Lu family is in business, so naturally we aim for the top!"
Huo Jingxi took a drag on his cigarette and glanced at Lu Baofei with one eye.
"Mr. Lu, it's rare to see you think so highly of the Huo family. I wonder who it was that was so unwilling to join back then!"
"My eyelids have been twitching so badly these past few days, I almost thought Miss Lu was cursing me with a voodoo doll!"
Seeing that he was being irresponsible, Lu Baofei changed the subject.
Is there any hope for this?
No wonder Lu Yi said that; it seems he already knew.
Lin Xiaoya doesn't seem like a brainless girl, how could she step on such a big landmine? Is there something fishy going on here?
“There’s hope, because the person involved has denied it from beginning to end, and my brother-in-law told me personally that they found a lot of suspicious points during the investigation and are verifying them!”
Shen Licheng didn't keep anyone in suspense.
His fingers tapped on the table as he lowered his upper body.
"But getting people out of trouble isn't that simple. Once you're in contact with this stuff, there's no escape. You'll be lucky to escape with your life, if not dead."
"However, it depends on what Miss Lu is willing to give up..."
Lu Baofei snapped the documents shut and pushed them back.
"I'm just asking around for someone. Whether you help or not is your business."
In front of him, Lu Baofei dialed Lin Yuan's number, exchanged a few pleasantries, and handed the phone to Shen Licheng.
"Take it! Just tell me what you want!"
When Shen Licheng saw the contact's name, his face turned as black as the bottom of a pot.
...
"Yi'er, why did you agree? It's her business if she jumps off the building. Is the Gu family more important to you than yourself?"
Lu Baoyun blocked all of Gu Huainan's contact methods and hesitated for a long time before taking the initiative to come to the Fan family.
In that situation, Lu Yi made a public statement, and Fan Huijun could no longer ask anything of the Gu family. After reconciling with Gu Huaibei, she stayed with the Gu family.
