Chapter 593 Secret Investigation
As Hua Jiao's biological father, Hua Baizhan's face turned pale with anger when he saw his daughter being humiliated like this.
"Lu Shixu, you bastard. I've treated you well since we were young, and this is how you ask to marry my daughter?"
"You didn't even offer any response other than a few filthy coins. And you even brought a lawyer and a notary with you. What's your intention?"
"Do you think I, Hua Baizhan, am a greedy and shameless villain who wants your family's dirty money?"
Lu Shixu had a cold expression and an arrogant tone.
"Whether you like it or not, this is all my sincerity. If you think I'm not worthy of Miss Hua, then forget about this marriage."
"The reason I brought a lawyer and notarized documents here is to get this out in the open. This will save me from getting caught up in any future conflicts."
"Also, Uncle Zhan, you promised me that as long as I'm willing to get engaged and marry Hua Jiao, you'll issue a letter of understanding and not hold Xu Xu responsible for anything. Does that still count?"
"It's just right. Let's take advantage of such a lively day today to settle this matter. It will save you from any more troubles. I won't worry about you either."
Lu Shixu's arrogant and rude attitude made Hua Baizhan so angry that his lungs almost exploded.
However, Hua Jiao was determined to marry Lu Shixu, so he had no choice but to compromise and endure it for the sake of his daughter's wish.
"Okay, I'll sign."
"But Lu Shixu, listen to me. If you dare to let Jiaojiao down or treat her badly in the future, I will never forgive you."
Lu Shixu sneered and said something incomprehensible.
"Let's talk about the future after we get engaged. Uncle Zhan, no matter what happens in the future, I will respect you as my elder and will be filial to you."
After delivering the transfer check to the Hua family, Lu Shixu took the letter of understanding signed by Hua Baizhan and left without looking back.
He didn't ask a single question about Hua Jiao's hospitalization, not even a false expression of concern.
"This bastard, how could Jiaojiao be so blind as to marry such a heartless and ungrateful bastard? I'm so, so angry."
Hua Baishan tried to comfort him hypocritically.
"Don't be angry, second brother. It's a great thing for the children to get married."
"Ah Xu, we've watched him grow up. He's got a pretty good character and personality. He's being so rude today, probably because he's sulking with us because of that little girl from the Qi family."
"Young people don't know how to judge people, so it's inevitable that they will be easily seduced by beauty. He has always been cold-tempered and has a strong temper, so we should be more tolerant of him."
"After the children are engaged, we can secretly deal with those wild flowers and weeds. We can temper his temper and tame him naturally."
Hua Baizhan nodded slightly, agreeing to his proposal.
"Brother, you're right. I should investigate that girl and find out who she is and why she could have bewitched Ah Xu to this extent."
Hua Jiao was a silly girl, but that didn't mean Hua Baizhan was incompetent. In the past, he had no hope in life, so he lived in seclusion in the old house in Jingyang and ignored the world.
Now that his daughter has been found, he, as a father, owes her for more than twenty years and must make good plans for her happiness in the second half of her life.
The two teams were working closely together and secretly.
Lu Shixu investigates Hua Jiao, while Hua Baizhan investigates Qi Xu.
When A Liang finally obtained 5 ml of Bai Wei's blood after great efforts, Hua Baizhan also got the first-hand information about Qi Xu.
Qi Xu, the 22-year-old daughter of Qi Wangxing, president of Nancheng Anxin Home Furnishing Company, is a top student who has completed both a bachelor's and a master's degree at Medical University A.
Seven years ago, her mother was left in a vegetative state after a car accident, and her father remarried. Ever since her stepmother, stepbrother, and stepsister came into the family, the Qi family has cut off all her financial support. Qi Xu relied on part-time jobs and support from friends to complete her studies.
Two months ago, while interning at Jingshan County People's Hospital, I met Lu Shixu. Later, with Lu Shixu's help, I was transferred to the military hospital.
Currently working as a general surgeon.
Hua Baizhan held the densely written paper, read it, and slowly stuffed it into the shredder.
"This little girl is quite capable."
His tone was cold and indifferent, revealing an unfathomable meaning. It was impossible to tell whether it was praise or sarcasm.
The leading subordinate asked him, "Brother Zhan, do you want us to find a way to kill this ignorant girl?"
Hua Baizhan thought for a moment and waved his hand to stop him.
"No. This girl is Lu Er's favorite now, it's not that easy to take her down."
"Besides, if I really kill her, my Jiaojiao will probably suffer too."
"As for the little girl, although she has suffered a few minor hardships in the past few years, she hasn't seen any major storms after all. I'll give her a pig's trotter and convey my uncle's thoughts to her. The smart child will naturally understand."
"Yes!" A group of elderly men in black took the order and disappeared.
The next day, Qi Xu received a luxurious and mysterious gift.
In a box made of pure gold lay a bloody human hand.
As a surgeon, she was extremely sensitive to the smell of blood. From the moment she received the package, she guessed that it was not a good thing.
But she was not a coward. Not only was she not frightened, but she opened the box calmly as if she was opening a parcel.
This is a box of pure gold. If calculated by weight, it is worth several million.
Even if the contents are a little disgusting, so what?
She has dissected corpses, so why would she be afraid of a mere piece of dead meat?
She put on a mask and gloves, calmly took out the letter from under the pale and bloody hand, and read it word by word.
"Little girl, did you receive Uncle Hua's gift? Your father personally selected it. Don't be afraid, Uncle has no ill intentions. He just wants to invite you to my daughter's engagement party."
"My Jiaojiao really wants to make friends with you, you won't refuse, right?"
Inside the envelope, there was also an invitation to Lu Shixu and Hua Jiao's engagement party.
Qi Xu held the fiery red invitation letter in his hand, and the smile on the corner of his lips was even more terrifying than the hand corpse in the gold box.
She took off her gloves and shoved the box into the freezer.
Then, she called Lu Shixu and asked him questions like a couple chatting.
"Ah Xu, are you getting engaged tomorrow?"
Lu Shixu felt a tightness in his chest and a hoarseness in his throat, not knowing how to answer.
He originally wanted to keep it a secret from her and tell her everything after the matter was over.
Who knew she would receive the news so quickly?
It seems that the third brother's guard was not strict enough, and someone took advantage of the loophole.
Since she asked, I have no choice but to tell the truth.
"Well, yes. I might go for a formality tomorrow. But I won't really get engaged to her. Honey, don't worry, my fiancée can only be you."
Lu Shixu's tone was very nervous, like a child who had made a mistake, and he expressed his opinion anxiously and panickily.
Qi Xu couldn't help but laugh.
"Idiot, why are you panicking? I don't blame you."
"I'm calling just to ask you, I want to attend your engagement party tomorrow, is that okay?"
