Lin Sixian: “???”
Lin Sixian: “!!!”
Even someone like Lin Sixian, who could remain calm even in the face of adversity, showed a hint of surprise.
A smile flashed in Jiang Chu Nian's eyes, and she coughed lightly: "It's just a joke."
Lin Sixian laughed: "Actually, the suona is pretty good too, it's the king of musical instruments."
"Do you want me to play a song for you?" Jiang Chunian joked.
"Forget it, I still want to live longer." Lin Sixian chuckled.
After all, the play ends when the suona sounds.
He didn't want the show to end yet.
After some chatting and laughing, the atmosphere in the car became a little better.
Jiang Chunian also became a little more energetic, but only a little. She was still very tired.
Lin Sixian glanced at the navigation and saw that they would reach the hotel in about 5 minutes.
He said, "Today I had someone conduct a rough investigation into the health of the Lu and Zhou families."
Jiang Chunian was so sleepy that his mind was a little confused and he couldn't react for a moment: "Zhou family?"
"Yes," Lin Sixian explained, "The blood jade bracelet was indeed passed down to Zhou Jianhong by the old lady of the Lu family. That's why we didn't suspect anything when Zhou Jianhong gave it to Siyu when she was engaged to Lu Jiaming. This also means that Zhou Jianhong was either the mastermind or an accomplice in the tampering with the blood jade bracelet.
Our Lin family is not an unknown family. A marriage with our family will maximize the interests of the Lu family and even Lu Jiaming. Offending our Lin family will result in consequences that the Lu family cannot afford. However, under such circumstances, they still made this decision, which means that the person they want to save is more important than our Lin family, the development of the Lu family, and Lu Jiaming's future.
So I infer that the person who made the Lu family let Zhou Jianhong take the risk of offending our Lin family must be a very important person to them.
Especially for Zhou Jianhong, a noble lady, the most important things in the world to her are probably her parents, husband and son.
So, we are mainly investigating the people in the Lu and Zhou families who have close ties with Zhou Jianhong."
Jiang Chunian didn't know much except that the Lu family was Lin Siyu's future husband's family. However, Lin Siyu's analysis made sense.
"Yeah." She nodded: "Did you find out anything?"
"You reminded us before that there are two directions for investigation. One is to know our Siyu's birth date and eight characters. Because birth dates and eight characters are generally not leaked, but the Lu family does know Siyu's birth date and eight characters.
Two years ago, the Lu family proposed to the Lin family, wanting Lu Jiaming to get engaged to Siyu. Siyu was only 18 years old at the time. Actually, we were not very supportive of getting engaged so early, but Siyu and Lu Jiaming were in love at the time, and she was willing to get engaged to Lu Jiaming. In addition, Lu Jiaming was indeed a good match, so my parents agreed.
At that time, Zhou Jianhong was very proactive and proposed to follow the traditional ancient rituals to express his satisfaction and attention to Siyu.
Our Lin family is also a century-old family and is quite traditional. After hearing Zhou Jianhong's suggestion, we naturally agreed. So the Lu family asked a matchmaker to come to our house, and after three matchmakers and six engagements, they got Siyu's birth date and horoscope.
Of course, our family also got Lu Jiaming's birth date and time, but in this situation, I have serious doubts about whether Lu Jiaming's birth date and time are really his birth date and time."
From the moment Zhou Jianhong proposed to proceed according to traditional ancient rituals, it was clear that she had been planning this for a long time. In this case, she would probably be worried that the matter would be exposed, and the Lin family would also find a master of metaphysics to take action against Lu Jiaming. Lu Jiaming is her eldest son and the heir to the Lu family. He can be said to be her future support. It is impossible for her to harm Lu Jiaming, so this birth date and time is probably really forged.
Jiang Chunian said, "Even if she brought a fake birth date, doesn't Lu Jiaming's ID card have his birth date? By then, if we can find out the time of birth and then combine it with his face, it shouldn't be that difficult to find out his real birth date, right? It wouldn't mean much, would it?"
Lin Sixian shook his head. "No, for families like ours, or rather, for people my age and older, many don't have their actual birthdays listed on their ID cards. For us newcomers, birth dates are extremely important and must never be disclosed to anyone. So when registering their children, they consciously protect their birth dates and give them a birthday that's either earlier or later. For example, the birthday on my ID card is six months earlier than my actual birthday."
Half a year?
Jiang Chunian had indeed not noticed this matter before, but after Lin Sixian said this, she was able to quickly accept and understand it.
"It is indeed necessary." Jiang Chunian nodded: "If the birth date and time are obtained by bad people, the consequences will be unimaginable."
Lin Sixian nodded. "That's right. So, it's unrealistic for us to infer Lu Jiaming's birth date based on the birth date on his ID card."
"Then he doesn't celebrate his birthday?" Jiang Chunian asked curiously.
Lin Sixian: "We all celebrate our birthdays according to the date of birth on our ID cards. Our real birthdays are only celebrated by our family members, and we don't publicize them."
"Okay, that's indeed cautious enough." Jiang Chunian said.
Lin Sixian explained, "People like us understand the world better than the average person. We believe in science, but we also understand that there is indeed metaphysics in this world. So when we start our business, we prioritize science, but when it comes to certain taboos, we prioritize metaphysics."
"It won't delay either." Jiang Chunian smiled. "Actually, you don't need to explain to me. I'm a disciple of Xuanmen myself, and no one knows these taboos better than us. Besides, I never celebrate my birthday."
Jiang Chunian was talking about his past life, but Lin Sixian was thinking about Jiang Chunian's present life.
Lin Sixian had investigated Jiang Chunian before and knew that she was abducted at the age of 5. She was later rescued but she had lost her memory and could not contact her biological parents. She had no choice but to be sent to an orphanage, where it was difficult to even get a full meal in the orphanage, let alone celebrate her birthday. No one knew her real birthday.
"Sorry." Lin Sixian thought of this and apologized.
Jiang Chu Nian was surprised: "Why are you apologizing?"
Lin Sixian was stunned by the question, and then Lin Sixian said honestly: "Sorry, I investigated you before."
Jiang Chunian turned around and looked at him with a half-smile: "You are very brave, daring to investigate a disciple of Xuanmen? Aren't you afraid that I will be vindictive and kill you quietly in anger?"
"You won't." Lin Sixian said firmly, "You are a decent person."
Jiang Chunian smiled and shook his head: "That's not necessarily true."
"I apologize to you again," Lin Sixian said, "Please forgive my offense."
"Tsk tsk." Jiang Chunian said, "Remember this first."
"We've arrived at the hotel."
Lin Sixian drove the car to the main entrance of the hotel, handed the car keys to the bodyguard in the back, and then took Jiang Chunian into the lobby.
Lin Sixian went to the front desk to get the key. Jiang Chunian stood aside and suddenly heard someone calling her: "Jiang Chunian, why are you here? Are you following me?"
