Gu Huaibei looked at Lu Yi with great interest, and before the car door closed, he reached out and grabbed the car window.
"Jun Jun, is it really meaningful to keep putting on such a childish act?"
"I know your Fan family is expanding into new markets and needs a large sum of money. Money doesn't discriminate, so why not consider the Gu family?"
Fan Huijun admitted that her acting skills were terrible.
The Gu family is wealthy, and Gu Huaibei is outstanding in appearance and highly educated, making him one of the best among the city's rich kids, but she just doesn't feel anything for him.
I always felt that this kind of devilishly handsome man should find a strong woman to control him.
While she may appear energetic and impulsive, she is actually incredibly soft-hearted inside.
That said, not long ago, she was able to persuade her father to give up cooperation with the Lu family for Lu Yi's sake.
How could I possibly sacrifice myself for the Gu family just for money?
"Gu Huaibei, my family's affairs are none of your concern. There are plenty of good girls out there, why do you have to fixate on me?"
"I'm telling you again, there's no future for us, so let's not waste each other's time!"
Fan Huijun gave Gu Huaibei an apologetic smile and started the car.
After Lu Han rushed into the hotel as if her life depended on it, she didn't see Gu Huaibei and assumed he had already left.
Just as he was about to go out to see if Fan Tong was following him, he suddenly saw a familiar face in the car window.
From his perspective, Gu Huaibei was standing right on Lu Yi's side.
He clenched his fists in shock, feeling as if the blood in his body was cooling down, and froze on the spot.
"Lu Yi, when did you start having dealings with the Gu family?"
Moreover, that person was Gu Huaibei.
Gu Huaibei was extremely cold to all outsiders, but at this moment he actually smiled and waved to Lu Yi!
What kind of relationship do these two have?
I didn't check the almanac before going out today.
This is truly bizarre!
Just as Gu Huaibei was about to turn around, Lu Han suddenly shrank her neck, turned around and ran into the elevator, quickly pressing the button for the top floor.
After driving off Fanghai Road, Fan Huijun smiled silently. "Do you think I'm being tactless?"
"What?"
Lu Yi was looking down at Liang Shiyue's message and didn't hear it clearly.
"Never mind, you go ahead and do your thing!"
Fan Huijun turned the steering wheel in disappointment.
"It's Xiaoyue who's worried about me. I haven't been considerate of her feelings these past two days. It's my fault!"
Lu Yi finished speaking naturally, then rubbed his cheeks a few times in annoyance.
The atmosphere inside the car was somewhat eerie.
After being interrupted one after another, Fan Huijun had completely forgotten her purpose in seeking out Lu Yi.
Originally, she wanted to schedule a time with Lu Yi so that her lawyer friend could execute Lu Gensheng's will as soon as possible.
Now she just wants to go home quickly and be an ostrich with its head down.
Just as she was lost in thought, Lu Yi received a phone call.
"Yes, I saw it all just now."
"You want me to identify people? Now?"
"Okay, see you in a bit."
Fan Huijun tilted her head slightly. "Was that Officer Ma calling?"
Lu Yi hummed in agreement.
She made a U-turn at the fork in the road and drove towards the police station.
Lu Yi became unusually quiet throughout the journey.
They didn't even notice when the car stopped.
Are you alright?
Fan Huijun was worried that his body couldn't handle working so many consecutive days.
He let him go in first, then turned and walked towards the convenience store.
When she came in carrying a bunch of energy drinks, Lu Yi was biting his thumb and staring blankly at a photo.
"Officer Ma, do you mean he's the one who cut the surveillance cables?"
Officer Ma nodded. "That's right. According to the two men we arrested, they were a trio who were all addicted to gambling, eating, and drinking. When they ran out of money, they would stake out construction sites and steal cables to sell."
"These two underlings said that they have an older brother named Fan Tong, who has many connections and sometimes gets a sum of money that can support them to squander for two or three months."
"Unfortunately, the man wasn't in the van when we made the arrest."
"The two said that Fan Tong was very excited before he brought them to the city today, probably because he was going to ask someone for money!"
The surveillance photo was blurry, and the person was covering half of their face with a baseball cap, making it impossible to see their facial features.
Officer Ma was quite convinced by Lu Yi's bold guess.
However, it still cannot be proven that Lu Han had the need and the courage to "hire" a hitman from this gang.
During the interrogation at the Lu family's residence, he readily admitted that sending the soup was his idea, so why did he ask someone to sabotage the surveillance?
Isn't this just adding unnecessary details?
Officer Ma seems to have forgotten.
Lu Han is not a criminal genius.
He's just a high school boy who does whatever comes to mind to achieve his goals.
Lu Han had the surveillance cameras sabotaged to create the illusion that someone was plotting to harm Lu Gensheng.
The plan was to lure Lu Yi into a trap he had dug in advance, completely ruining the goodwill Lu Yi had just begun to gain from his parents and sisters.
What he wanted was for Lu Yi and the Lu family to completely break off relations and never have any contact again.
In this way, no one can threaten his status and position as the eldest son of the Lu family.
Fan Huijun took out drinks and distributed them to everyone who was working overtime.
As he passed behind Lu Yi, his gaze swept over the surveillance photo, and he suddenly exclaimed, "Huh?"
"Lu Yi, don't you feel like you've seen this person somewhere before?"
Lu Yi shook his head in confusion.
I forced my heavy eyelids open and kept yawning.
Fan Huijun opened a can of coffee, handed it to him, and looked at the photo over and over again.
"The facial features are indeed unclear, but the person's bone structure and gait are too familiar."
