After Liu Qinqin finished speaking angrily, she thought of yesterday's situation and quickly added to Liu Yansong's words.
"And when we came back yesterday, all the doors in the house were locked properly. If I'm not mistaken, the door to my parents' cabinet was also locked properly."
"What thief could steal so much money without breaking the lock? You can't even come up with a plausible excuse!"
Liu Yansong had been a little hesitant at first, but after hearing Liu Qinqin's words, he was even less inclined to believe the old couple.
He didn't say anything, just stood there coldly watching the old couple, constantly calculating in his mind how to get them to hand over the money.
No wonder Liu Yansong likes Lu Rou; she really understands his feelings.
Before Liu Yansong had even told her anything, Lu Rou had already guessed his thoughts perfectly.
"Father and Mother, may I call you that? I got my marriage certificate with Brother Song today, and the doctor said last night that I am pregnant with Brother Song's child, and I am already more than two months along."
If there's anything you don't like about me, I can change. Please don't take your anger out on Song-gege because of me, lest it damage the relationship between parents and children.
Lu Rou's words were practically an admission that the elderly couple didn't want him to come in, which was why they hid the money, so she displayed a strong sense of grievance.
Liu's mother was extremely anxious. She couldn't understand why her children didn't believe her and her husband. The money was indeed lost; could they possibly conjure it up again?
As for why they didn't call the police, there were gold bars and other important but shady things in that box. If they had called the police and been found, their family might have become the next Zhu family, or even worse off.
"Xiaorou, it's not like that. Your parents have no problem with you. The money is really gone!"
Liu Yansong was extremely annoyed to see his mother putting on a mournful act.
"Alright, stop crying. Aren't you all getting tired of pretending? You just don't want Xiaorou and me to use your money, right? Fine, we won't use it!"
After saying that, he pulled Lu Rou back to his room.
Once inside the room, he realized that Lu Rou didn't have a job or any income. After thinking it over, he decided to try and get Zhu Qinghao's job.
"Rou'er, don't worry, the two of us, and our baby, will definitely be able to live a good life."
Although I can no longer marry Zhu Qinghao, nor inherit her fortune, we can still build a bright future together with our own hands, right?
Liu Yansong said these words on purpose to test Lu Rou. In fact, he wanted to keep the fact that the two had already registered their marriage a secret and continue to have contact with Zhu Qinghao.
However, this matter requires Lu Rou's cooperation, and he felt that he shouldn't be the one to bring it up; Lu Rou should be the one to bring it up herself.
His plan was well thought out, but Lu Rou, who was usually very understanding, did not understand his meaning this time and nodded obediently.
"Brother Song, Rou'er believes in you and won't let me or our baby suffer any injustice."
Lu Rou's reaction disappointed Liu Yansong, but he did not give up and continued to guide her.
"Rou'er, I have an idea. Zhu Qinghao has a job, but her current situation is a bit awkward, so I guess she might not be able to hold it for long."
