Hear this life

Lu Shicheng took the small vocabulary notebook from her hand without hesitation and wrote a line of words on it.

[I remembered something I wanted to ask Miss Wen, so I came to see if you had left. ]

Wen Tingli's expression relaxed: "What do you want to ask me?"

Suddenly she remembered that she was not wearing shoes, her face turned red, and she said hurriedly, "Please wait a moment."

Then he stepped back in a hop-hop manner, saying, "You didn't even say hello before you came over. I thought it was Aunt Liu."

She closed the door.

Lu Shicheng was left alone in the corridor. He looked around with suspicion. If he remembered correctly, this seemed to be his Lu Mansion.

Fortunately, he only waited outside the door for a while, and Wen Tingli opened the door again, this time she put on her shoes.

"Go ahead." She seemed to be in pain after putting on her shoes and socks, and could only lean against the door while speaking.

Lu Shicheng glanced at her feet and pointed to the sofa in the room with sympathy. [Come in and sit down. I'll leave after I finish asking questions.]

Wen Tingli was a little shy: "It's okay, just talk here."

Lu Shicheng thought about it and was about to write in her little notebook when she heard voices in the corridor.

"Doctor Louis, please come this way. Hey, why is the young master here too?" Manager Chen looked at Lu Shicheng in shock, then at Wen Tingli.

Wen Tingli said hurriedly: "Mr. Lu has something to ask me."

Manager Chen did not ask any more questions: "This is Doctor Louis. He is very experienced in treating external injuries. Miss Wen, please go in."

Then he said to Lu Shicheng, "Young Master, should we ask the question first, or should we ask Dr. Louis to see Miss Wen first?"

Lu Shicheng glanced at Wen Tingli. After asking, he could leave with an excuse, but she seemed to be in great pain. Out of politeness, he had to point into the room and let him treat her first.

At this moment, Aunt Liu came back. Seeing this, she quickly put down the tray and helped Wen Tingli into the room.

It was inconvenient for Lu Shicheng to follow in, so he was left alone in the corridor again.

In the room, Wen Tingli was communicating with Dr. Louis in English about her injuries.

She spoke in a brisk tone and grammatically correct English.

Lu Shicheng listened and thought, there was no need to guess, Dr. Louis would soon become talkative. Sure enough, after a while, Louis' tone was not as serious as when he first entered the room. He even laughed "hehehe" twice. Aunt Liu also had a good impression of Wen Tingli. After entering the room, she kept helping to pass water and medicine.

Lu Shicheng put his hands in his trouser pockets and walked out. He was used to this. When he turned around, he found that Manager Chen was still standing behind him. Judging from the surprised look on Manager Chen's face, it seemed that he was also surprised by Wen Tingli's outstanding communication skills.

Lu Shicheng was the first to leave the corridor. Steward Chen came to his senses and said, "It's almost seven o'clock. I'll ask them to bring up the young master's dinner."

Twenty minutes later, Dr. Louis came out with a medical kit.

"The skin injuries on the arms and knees have been healed. The more serious injury is the edema of the soft tissue of the left ankle. It's not serious. I just bandaged and fixed it for Miss Wen. It won't be a big problem after a few days of rest."

Lu Shicheng shook hands with Dr. Louis to express his gratitude, and Manager Chen asked someone to see Dr. Louis out.

The living room was quiet again. Taking advantage of the free time, Lu Shicheng went to the study to reply to a few letters. Soon, the servants set up dinner in the side hall. "Master Cheng, dinner is ready."

As soon as Lu Shicheng came out, he saw Liu Ma helping Wen Tingli out.

Wen Tingli took a step with difficulty and said, "Auntie Liu, please don't see me off. Doctor Lewis said my injury is not serious at all. Besides, it doesn't hurt after applying the medicine. I can walk by myself."

Her left ankle was wrapped in gauze, which looked like a garlic from a distance.

She looked up and saw Lu Shicheng standing by the dining table in the side hall. She stopped and said, "Thank you, Mr. Lu, for helping me get the doctor. By the way, what did you want to ask me just now?"

Lu Shicheng naturally had nothing to ask, but if he didn't ask, his previous behavior would seem extremely sneaky and suspicious. It just so happened that he had been puzzled about something for a long time, so he solemnly asked someone to bring him paper and pen, and suddenly he saw the food on the table.

But it was already this late, and asking her to leave after asking her questions was not the right way to treat a guest.

I had to write:
[Miss Wen has a foot injury. Why don’t you have dinner at my place first? I will ask you something later.]

I thought Wen Tingli would say something polite, but she just froze for a moment, then smiled shyly and said, "Then it would be disrespectful to refuse."

Lu Shicheng's expression remained unchanged, and he immediately asked someone to bring another set of bowls and chopsticks.

Wen Tingli whispered to Liu Ma where her phone was, saying she wanted to call home.

Lu Shicheng continued to stand there waiting. After a while, he heard Wen Tingli call "Mrs. Zhou" on the other end of the phone. Then, she changed her tone to a cute one and said with a smile, "Did Xiao Taozi behave well today? Of course I did! You and Mrs. Zhou should eat first. Yes, you must finish your meal, otherwise I won't buy you any candy when I come back."

Lu Shicheng secretly guessed that it was Wen Tingli's sister. Kuang Zhilin said that her father was terminally ill, and now everything in the Wen family was supported by Wen Tingli alone.

But since the first time he saw her, he seemed to have never seen sadness on her face.

While in a trance, Wen Tingli put down the phone and returned to the restaurant.

Seeing Lu Shicheng standing by the table waiting for her, she was a little at a loss: "You are too polite, please take a seat."

It happened that Manager Chen came back from dinner. Seeing this, he was somewhat puzzled, but he reacted very quickly. He walked over to help Wen Tingli pull out a dining chair and said with a smile, "The young master said that this dish is a bit light. I don't know if it suits Miss Wen's appetite."

Wen Tingli saw that there were only three dishes and one soup on the table. It seemed that Lu Shicheng was very casual about eating. No wonder Lu Shicheng complained that she ordered too many dishes when she invited him last time. She didn't want to eat at Lu's house, but she was just looking for an excuse to stay a little longer. If someone called Lu Shicheng at this time, she might hear something.

She waved her hands and said, "I like to eat everything. I usually eat very casually at dinner. You don't have to bother."

Having said that, Lu Shicheng still asked Manager Chen to instruct the kitchen to add a few more dishes.

The Lu family’s kitchen worked incredibly quickly, and the dishes were delivered in just ten minutes.

The first dish was braised lung, and the other two were fried gluten stuffed with meat and flat tip bean curd soup. These were all ordered when she treated guests last time, and each of them was her favorite.

Wen Tingli looked up at Lu Shicheng. This man's upbringing was almost engraved in his bones. She had seen many wealthy people pretending to be well-educated, but at best they could only pretend for a while. Unlike Lu Shicheng, this man really knew how to observe and sympathize with other people's emotions. He was so sensitive, so respectful, and yet he didn't show any signs of it. Even if he just invited her to dinner temporarily, he was not being falsely polite, but was not perfunctory at all.

She picked up the chopsticks very ladylikely. She was never afraid of socializing with others, but tonight was the first time she showed a reserved attitude in front of others.

After eating a quiet meal, the servants cleared the table and brought tea, and Lu Shicheng began to ask questions.

[How did you get to know the people from the Weiying Gang? ]

Wen Tingli looked at the words on the vocabulary book blankly. Weiying Gang? What Weiying Gang?

The air fell silent, and Lu Shicheng's gaze dimmed a little. He waited quietly for Wen Tingli to react.

"I can't say." Suddenly, Wen Tingli was enlightened and shook her head mischievously, "Although Mr. Lu helped me a lot that time, I can't elaborate on this matter."

Her smile is so sweet that it can almost melt people.

Lu Shicheng couldn't help but lower her eyes. Although she obviously hesitated at the beginning, her performance afterwards was flawless. Moreover, her words were consistent with the results of Kuang Zhilin's investigation: she kept silent because she had received a favor from the Weiying Gang.

He stopped talking at the right moment.

[It’s getting late, I’ll ask them to take you back.] He stood up and looked at her.

He didn't know that Wen Tingli's back was already covered in cold sweat.

The question just now caught her off guard. "Weiying Gang" - she was sure she had never heard of this name.

In that moment of daze, she quickly searched her mind for people and things related to these three words, but she had no clue. However, she knew that the question asked by Lu Shicheng must be related to some common experience they had. However, she and Lu Shicheng had only spent a few times together. Suddenly, she remembered what happened that day. Could it be that he was asking about those old ladies?
After all, she was also curious about the other party's background afterwards, but Li Chengying didn't say a word to her in order to protect the group of women.

In order to prevent Lu Shicheng from continuing to question her, she could only take a risk and deliberately responded vaguely and stopped talking in time. In this case, the more she talked, the more flaws she would reveal.

Fortunately, she made the right bet, and Lu Shicheng did not seem suspicious.

She didn't dare let him see that her legs had gone limp from fear, so she lingered at the table for a while while drinking her tea.

Lu Shicheng did not urge her, but in the eyes of Manager Chen, it seemed as if Wen Tingli was deliberately unwilling to leave. He thought with a bit of amusement: It is rare for such a generous girl to have a shy side.

When Wen Tingli got up, Lu Shicheng asked someone to help her out. When he turned around, he saw Manager Chen with a meaningful smile on his face.

Wen Tingli also saw it. She immediately realized that Manager Chen had misunderstood. Well, this situation was indeed difficult to explain. She secretly glanced at Lu Shicheng beside her. Lu Shicheng was a hundred times more alert than Manager Chen. Even Manager Chen could tell that something was wrong with her just now. She wondered what he was thinking of her now.

Lu Shicheng seemed unaware of anything and just gestured outside the living room.

Manager Chen straightened his face and said, "Ask the driver to take Miss Wen home?"

"Really." Wen Tingli said hurriedly, "There is a tram at the school gate. I can take the tram back."

Lu Shicheng looked at her feet, and Wen Tingli followed suit and saw that her left foot was wrapped up like this. It would seem a bit hypocritical if she continued to act tough.

"Thank you, Mr. Lu." She said softly.

Lu Shicheng walked out with a calm expression, and Manager Chen asked someone to call Chen Ma to support Wen Tingli.

Just as I reached the stairs, the phone in the living room rang.

Steward Chen was just outside giving instructions to the driver, and the servant inside answered the phone: "Looking for the young master."

Manager Chen said outside: "Tell him to wait a moment, I will call back later."

The servant was about to hang up the phone, but he didn't know what the other end said. The servant panicked and said, "Master, it's Mr. Lou from Tianxing Warehouse who called. He said it's urgent and asked you to answer the phone quickly."

Lu Shicheng winked at Manager Chen, who said hurriedly, "Hang up first."

Wen Tingli's heartbeat quickened, and she took the opportunity to say, "Thank you, Mr. Lu, thank you, Manager Chen, and thank you, Aunt Liu. Goodbye."

As he said this, he bowed to the people on the steps, bent down and got into the car.

Lu Shicheng turned around and walked into the living room, pointing at the phone as he walked.

"Do you want to call Boss Lou back?" Manager Chen asked anxiously.

Lu Shicheng was about to nod, but suddenly changed his mind.

He remembered Wen Tingli's brief shock when he asked the question earlier.

In his eyes, Wen Tingli was like a cunning little fox. Whenever he doubted her motives, she could always dispel his suspicions without leaving any trace.

But before she knew it, this was the second time he had eaten at the same table with her, and this time, she simply had dinner at his house openly.

Thinking carefully, she seemed to always find a reasonable reason to get close to him. Looking at Manager Chen and Aunt Liu beside her, they didn't seem to dislike Wen Tingli either.

Lu Shicheng couldn't tell what was wrong. He paced a few steps with his hands in his trouser pockets, then stopped and gestured to the phone. Manager Chen was stunned: "Looking for Mr. Kuang? What about Boss Lou? OK, I'll call him right away."

***
Following Lu Shicheng's instructions, the driver drove the car out of Lu Mansion and went straight to the residence on Baile Road.

On the way, Wen Tingli repeatedly thought about her time with Lu Shicheng tonight. Even though he treated her so considerately, she couldn't guarantee that he didn't suspect her. After all, Lu Shicheng was too deep and too quiet.

But Li Chengying was right. It was impossible to prevent the other party from being suspicious. As long as Lu Shicheng could not provide evidence to prove that there was something wrong with her, he could not do anything to her.

But now, she had to take the risk.

The Tianxing Warehouse mentioned in the phone call just now seems to be an agency specializing in transporting goods, and the tone of the other party was so urgent. If this call is related to that batch of drugs, this is obviously an opportunity that cannot be missed.

As long as she calls Li Chengying immediately, they will take action soon.

But in this way, Lu Shicheng would know clearly that it was she who leaked the news. After all, she was by his side when the call came just now.

But she is still studying hard now. No, it is more than just this period. After offending the Lu family, her situation in Shanghai will be a hundred times more difficult than when she was targeted by Mr. and Mrs. Qiao.

Can she afford such consequences? She asked herself.

Along the way, she was struggling fiercely in her heart. When she was about to reach home, she suddenly remembered the seriously injured and unconscious Dean Deng she saw in the hospital that day. She could not hesitate any longer. Dean Deng was in great danger. Every time she missed an opportunity to investigate, Dean Deng's life would be threatened again.

What's more, behind Dean Deng, there are Li Chengying and his gang - if she wants, she can turn around and sell them out to Lu Shicheng at any time, but they still show her their contact information, contact locations, and the "backs" of everyone in the group without reservation, even including the fact that they have dealings with the Weiying Gang - no, she can't let them down. Trust in her, at least, now is not the time to only consider her own interests.

After getting off the car, she thanked the Lu family's driver again and again. After the driver drove away, she immediately turned out and went to the nearby telephone office to call Li Chengying.

"Sister Li, it's me... Yes, Tianxing Warehouse. It seems to be very urgent over there."

After finishing the call, Wen Tingli sat in the telephone office. She knew that Li Chengying's ability and speed of action were beyond her imagination. If Li Chengying made any move, the Lu family would immediately notice it.

At the latest tomorrow, no, maybe tonight, Lu Shicheng will be sure that there is something wrong with her. If the Lu family suffers a great loss because of this, she dare not imagine how Lu Shicheng will deal with her.

She unconsciously put her hands in her hair, and was in a daze. Before the Lu family launched any action, she had to prepare a way out for herself and Xiao Taozi overnight.

How about going to Nanjing or Hangzhou to hide for a while? Yes, we'll leave early tomorrow morning. The large checks and bills are hidden in her underwear, and the jewelry is usually kept in her school bag, so she can leave at any time.

In addition, Lawyer Bao had signed a contract with her. In order to compensate her for the risks she took, he would compensate her with two thousand dollars in the name of Shuguang Law Firm. Such a huge amount of cash, plus the money she had on hand, would be enough for her and Xiao Taozi to survive for a few years. As for what to do after arriving in Hangzhou or Nanjing, she believed that there would be a way out.

As soon as the thought came to her mind, Wen Tingli immediately called Xiangsheng Car Rental and booked three train tickets to Nanjing (note), asking the rental company to deliver them to Cixin Hospital as soon as possible. She also booked a taxi to take her to the hospital later.

After coming out of the telephone office, Wen Tingli quickly returned to her apartment to pack her luggage. She packed her and Xiao Taozi's seasonal clothes in an old suitcase, and then found the contract she had signed with Lawyer Bao last time and put it in her school bag. Then she left home carrying the suitcase.

When she got to the side of the road, she sat on her suitcase waiting for a car. After waiting for a long time, she didn't see a taxi from Xiangsheng Car Company, but instead saw a familiar black car.

When the other car approached, Wen Tingli realized that the person in the car was Meng Qiguang.

He came here by himself without a driver.

Although Wen Tingli was a little surprised, she hurriedly greeted him through the window: "Mr. Meng."

Meng Qiguang rolled down the window: "Where are you going?"

“I’m going back to Mercy Hospital.”

Meng Qiguang looked at the suitcase at Wen Tingli's feet, then looked at her injured foot, "Get in the car, I'll take you there."

He got out of the car.

"No need." Wen Tingli said hurriedly, "I have already called a car from the taxi company. Thank you, Mr. Meng."

Meng Qiguang suddenly smiled and said, "Miss Wen, do you think I'm a scourge? Otherwise, why do you always avoid me?"

Wen Tingli was stunned.

"Is it because of Xingchu?" He looked straight at Wen Tingli, and his eyes seemed to be able to see into her heart.

"What?" Wen Tingli still maintained a puzzled expression, but looked away.

"You keep refusing my help, is it because of Xingchu?"

His tone was calm, yet so sharp, and those two sentences got to her head.

Wen Tingli didn't know what to say for a moment. Meng Qiguang looked at her with understanding: "Xingchu pursued you at the beginning, but he couldn't protect you. This experience brought you great insult and hurt, so you are extremely disappointed in him. You don't want to contact anyone related to the Qiao family anymore. Since I am Xingchu's little cousin, you naturally don't like me either."

Wen Tingli remained silent.

Meng Qiguang sneered: "But don't forget, I am Meng Qiguang and I am not Qiao Xingchu. Just because he can't protect you doesn't mean I can't."

Wen Tingli's eyelashes trembled, and she stood on tiptoe to look at the end of the road, and said puzzledly: "Why hasn't the car come yet? I have to go back and call to urge them, Mr. Meng, or--"

As soon as she turned around, she was stopped by Meng Qiguang: "What are you afraid of?"

When Wen Tingli looked up, Meng Qiguang was looking down at her.

"Are you afraid I'm just acting on impulse?" He looked at her and smiled.

Wen Tingli's breathing was a little disordered. She looked at him and asked, "Since it's not a spur of the moment thing, it seems that Mr. Meng is going to be serious about this. So, how long do you plan to be serious about me, Mr. Meng?"

Meng Qiguang was stunned.

Wen Tingli smiled slightly: "It seems that Mr. Meng has not considered this issue. You just happened to be interested in me. You have no intention of taking responsibility for this relationship, nor have you thought about making this relationship have a good outcome. You just want to satisfy your curiosity and desire to conquer. Then I can also tell you clearly that I am now focused on the college entrance examination and do not want to be distracted by men's affairs. Mr. Meng, please go back."

She turned to leave.

But he heard Meng Qiguang say indifferently from behind: "What about Lu Shicheng?"

"what?"

"You keep getting close to him, aren't you afraid that he's just playing around?"

Wen Tingli turned back angrily. Meng Qiguang said, "As far as I know, Lu Shicheng has been busy with his two uncles these years and has no mood to mess with women. And with Miss Wen's personality, you will never appear next to him again and again unless you are willing, so - you are willing to go out with him."

Wen Tingli couldn't think of anything to refute him for a moment, and suddenly remembered that Meng Qiguang's car appeared as soon as she came out of the apartment. It can be seen that when the Lu family driver sent her out, Meng Qiguang's car was also nearby, otherwise he would not have appeared so timely.

Then he must know that she stayed at Lu's house until after eight o'clock tonight.

Meng Qiguang glanced at the suitcase at Wen Tingli's feet and changed the subject: "Or do you have other purposes for approaching the Lu family?"

If she continued to question him like this, she might be discovered by Meng Qiguang. It would be bad if he found out about Li Chengying. Wen Tingli simply said, "Who I associate with and who I don't associate with has nothing to do with Mr. Meng. I only know that Mr. Lu will never embarrass me like Mr. Meng is doing now!"

Meng Qiguang was not refuted by this, and sneered: "I just want to remind Miss Wen that even if there is a man who can be your backer now, this person will never be Lu Shicheng."

This was almost a clear statement, but why didn't he just say he liked her? This man was too conceited, too shrewd, and too good at keeping things to himself!
He simply took a few steps closer to her: "As long as you are willing to follow me, I can give you whatever you want."

His eyes, like his tone, were full of temptation, like a poisonous snake spitting out its tongue, disturbing people's hearts for no reason.

Wen Tingli quickly took a step back: "I think Mr. Meng doesn't know me well enough. I don't want to 'follow' any man. I just want to arrange my own life freely! Mr. Meng, please respect yourself."

Meng Qiguang was silent for a while, looking towards the street corner without changing his expression: "In fact, the car from Xiangsheng Car Company has already arrived. I just asked the driver to wait over there. You wait here for about half a minute, and the car will come."

As he said that, he walked to the side of the road, opened the door and got in the car. Wen Tingli breathed a sigh of relief.

Meng Qiguang had already started the car, but suddenly stepped on the brakes: "Don't blame me for not reminding you, the Lu family is very complicated. Lu Shicheng has always had a bad relationship with his grandfather and uncle, but now he has not only defeated his second and third uncles, but also taken over the Lu family's business alone. People like him don't make things difficult for others, but if they really want to, they will never give you a chance to refute. If you encounter any trouble, you can come to me again. I won't take what happened tonight to heart."

He stepped on the accelerator and drove away. Wen Tingli was so angry that she laughed. This man finally stopped pretending to be a gentleman in front of her. She didn't know what she had done wrong that required him to be magnanimous and not care about her.

As soon as Meng Qiguang left, Xiangsheng Car Company appeared. The driver helped Wen Tingli put the luggage into the car. She dragged her injured ankle and moved into the car step by step.

Arriving at Cixin Hospital, Wen Tingli lay in bed in the ward and did not sleep for almost the whole night. Fortunately, she had packed her things and was ready to go at any time.

Meng Qiguang's words deepened her worries.

She waited anxiously for the dawn.

On the one hand, she hoped that the clues she provided could help Li Chengying find the mastermind behind the scenes. On the other hand, she was also worried about her future situation. She could take Xiao Taozi and Zhou Sao and leave, but what about her father?

Because she couldn't let it go, Wen Tingli got up from time to time to check on her father. In the end, she simply moved a stool and sat beside the bed to look at her father's face.

When Dean Deng was here, my father's condition improved significantly, but when Dean Deng got into trouble, some of his indicators started to deteriorate again. Over the past two months, my father has become almost a skeleton.

If she could not continue to take the college entrance examination in Shanghai, how would she explain it to her father? Even if she could go to Nanjing, Hangzhou, or even Beijing to take the college entrance examination, how could she abandon her father at this moment?

No, she couldn't leave her father in Cixin Hospital. She had to go, and the whole family had to go together! However, given her father's current physical condition, he definitely couldn't stand the bumps on the road, so she had to figure out how to get there. The more she thought about it, the more embarrassed she felt. She was so tired that she fell asleep leaning against her father's bed.

In the dim light, someone pushed her: "Xiao Wen, Xiao Wen, there's a phone call for you."

Wen Tingli looked up suddenly. It was Head Nurse Liu.

The nurse and Mrs. Zhou were snoring, and Xiao Taozi was also sleeping soundly. Looking at the clock on the wall, it was only half past five.

This point...

Wen Tingli went out with Head Nurse Liu without saying a word. Of course, there was no so-called phone call. Li Chengying was waiting for her in the pharmacy where they were last time.

Wen Tingli couldn't wait to close the door: "How is it?"

Li Chengying smiled: "The other gang has confirmed that it was done by the White Dragon Gang. The White Dragon Gang has been secretly colluding with Mr. Lu for more than a day or two. As soon as Beiping got the news, they began to make arrangements inside the White Dragon Gang and around Mr. Lu. I came here specially to tell you: your mission here has been successfully completed. You don't need to get close to Lu Shicheng and Kuang Zhilin in the future."

Wen Tingli was stunned. The news came too suddenly and she couldn't hide the surprise in her eyes.

"real?!"

Li Chengying nodded with a smile: "The Tianxing Warehouse you heard about yesterday is a time-honored brand in Ningbo. It has ten warehouses in Shanghai. Yesterday evening, someone seized a batch of important materials from the Tianxing Warehouse in Hankou. The boss was at a loss and had to ask Lu Shicheng for help. But before that, our companions had already found out that the real behind-the-scenes boss of the Tianxing Warehouse was Lu Shicheng. And guess what, the one who made things difficult for the Tianxing Warehouse was none other than the Li Zui Shi foreign company."

Li Zui Shi! The problematic freight company in Hankou.

"Upon investigation, we found out that Lizui Shi Trading Company had opposed Tianxing Warehouse more than once, and Tianxing Warehouse had also intercepted Lizui Shi's goods several times. But we all know that Lizui Shi Trading Company was established only a year ago, and logically it does not have the strength to oppose Lu Shicheng. The only two who can make Lu Shicheng fight back sincerely and have the strength to fight back are the White Dragon Gang and Mr. Lu San. Upon learning the news, our people ambushed at the dock began to investigate the Ningbo Gang overnight. The Ningbo Gang now hates Lizui Shi Trading Company very much. Upon investigation, we found out that the boss behind Lizui Shi Trading Company is not in Hankou, but in Peking, because all the bills of exchange of the foreign company were sent to Peking first. Combined with the various clues we found in the past few days, we have determined that the batch of medicine sent to the front line by President Deng was transferred from Nanyang by Mr. Lu San in Peking on behalf of the White Dragon Gang."

Being a member of the Lu family, he makes a profit by selling drugs privately. Mr. Lu will not let it go if he finds out, so Third Master Lu can only use the name of the White Dragon Gang to put the drugs on the market for sale at a high price. However, before they are officially put on sale, they are intercepted by President Deng. The White Dragon Gang learns the truth and naturally cannot tolerate President Deng.

That's why there were repeated assassinations later.

Wen Tingli felt relieved when she realized that Lu Shicheng had nothing to do with the assassination of President Deng.

"There is another good news. Dean Deng can speak now. She wants to see you. I will take you to see her later."

Wen Tingli's mind went blank, and she covered her mouth in excitement. Li Chengying suddenly asked, "Xiang Zhi said you moved your suitcase to the ward? So, where are you planning to go tonight?"

Wen Tingli smiled embarrassedly: "I——"

Li Chengying reluctantly took out a five thousand dollar note and a small box of gold bars from his pocket. Wen Tingli was stunned. Li Chengying sighed: "When I asked you for help, I promised not to let you get into danger. But just in case, we still made two preparations."

"Sister Li..." Wen Tingli felt a little ashamed. She walked over and put her head on Li Chengying's shoulder like a child. Li Chengying's expression softened and he touched Wen Tingli's head considerately.

Wen Tingli suddenly raised her head again: "What about Lu Shicheng——"

***
At this moment, Lu Shicheng was also waiting for news at the Lu Mansion.

He knew very well that if Wen Tingli was Lu Kejian's person, as soon as she left Lu Mansion last night, she would immediately tell Lu Kejian that Boss Lou was anxiously looking for him.

Before this, in order to confuse Lu Kejian, he had people place several batches of goods in different customs warehouses. Once Wen Tingli made this call, Lu Kejian would immediately know that the goods in Tianxing Warehouse were the most critical batch. As usual, he would mobilize all his strength overnight to transfer the batch of goods stranded in Hankou.

In fact, the Ningbo factory had been waiting for half a year for this batch of raw materials, so Lu Kejian's move would inevitably cause him great pain.

But after receiving the news last night, he simply asked Tianxing Warehouse to communicate frequently with Hankou, but secretly chose to wait and see what would happen.

He must first find out where Wen Tingli came from.

In order to adjust the strategy in time, he almost stayed up all night last night.

He stood at the desk and stared out the window. Before he knew it, the whole garden was shrouded in the pale blue morning light.

Over in Hankou, the dust should have settled by now.

While he was thinking, he heard a noise coming from the driveway in front of the garden. After a while, Kuang Zhilin hurried into the study.

Kuang Zhilin looked very relaxed. As soon as he entered the door, he said, "The people from Hankou successfully transferred the goods from the Tianxing Warehouse."

Lu Shicheng's eyes moved.

【What about Lu Kejian? 】

"Nothing happened all night."

Lu Shicheng was silent.

Kuang Zhilin: "Lu Kejian would never miss such a good opportunity. I heard that in order to raise funds, he has now set his sights on smuggling drugs. If he had stopped the shipment in time last night, it would have been enough for him to make a comeback. But there was no response from the other side last night, unless——"

Unless Wen Tingli was not sent by Mr. Lu Sanye at all.

After all, Lu Kejian couldn't help but take action after learning the news. Even if he couldn't stop the cargo in time, he would burn the cargo ship overnight. His uncle was always like this, and he would do anything to damage his interests.

Lu Shicheng paced in front of the desk for a few steps. When he turned back, his expression suddenly looked much better. He pointed at the cargo list and said, "Don't wait. Ship the goods to Ningbo immediately."

"It has been arranged." Kuang Zhilin said happily, "As for Miss Wen - just to be on the safe side, I will have someone keep an eye on Shishi for a while, but judging from what happened last night, she doesn't seem to have any problems. I heard that Miss Wen is also going to participate in a beauty pageant? I still say that, a lively girl like her, suddenly seeing a figure like the young master, is willing to approach him again and again, and even do some extraordinary things to attract the young master's attention, there is nothing strange about it."

He looked at Lu Shicheng with a smile.

Lu Shicheng sat down on the sofa, leaned back and closed his eyes. He only knew that the three words "Wen Tingli" had taken up a lot of his attention recently.

Since she was not sent by Lu Kejian, she can do whatever she wants.
