He felt he was doomed; he was sure she would torture him tonight.
If Miss Jiang comes again...
It's definitely a battleground, there's no escaping it.
"The interrogation hasn't yielded any results yet. Teacher Lu's arrival is just in time; we can give it a try."
Meng Wanyu sat back in her original seat, crossed her legs, rested her chin on her hand, and lazily looked at Lu Chengzhou.
A dangerous glint flashed in his eyes.
snort!
I wonder which fool dared to come and steal her tower while she was away from home.
Once she catches that guy, she'll definitely give him a good beating.
Of course, the most important thing right now is to catch this thief.
Lu Chengzhou glanced briefly at the five people in front of him.
He shook his head directly.
"It wasn't them."
"So, Teacher Lu, who do you think it could be?"
"Call those people from the next room over here."
Before arriving, Lu Chengzhou had already seen the security guards in the next conference room.
One of them conveyed a subtle sense of crisis to him.
So, this person must be the thief.
392. Her tacit understanding, her nighttime encounters.
The remaining few people were all called over by Meng Wanyu.
When they stood side by side in front of Lu Chengzhou, Lu Chengzhou had already identified the clueless thief.
However, he did not immediately point out the other party.
According to Jiang Aiyu's previous description, this thief should at least be a short man with a face full of freckles and a very bad appearance. But the person in front of him not only looks okay, but most importantly, he is actually quite tall!
And it's a guy, damn it!
Could it be that there is an error between the two pieces of information?
To be honest, Lu Chengzhou's trust in the system surpasses everything else, even more than his trust in himself.
Therefore, his first suspicion was that the information Miss Jiang gave him was incorrect.
He couldn't help but glance at the other person a few more times.
"Although the information Jiang Aiyu gave me may be problematic, Jiang Aiyu has no reason to lie to me."
"so……"
"It's possible that the person in front of you has had plastic surgery."
"It's possible that he has suddenly grown taller in the last few years."
"Perhaps this guy was originally a boy, but he just hadn't developed yet back then?"
Countless ideas flashed through Lu Chengzhou's mind.
Shao Yan, the thief standing at the very end of the crowd, frowned.
Lu Chengzhou only glanced at him a few times and did not show any sign of suspicion, but for some reason, he felt that he had been exposed.
He has to run!
However, under the current circumstances, it would be too difficult for him to run.
He's only good at petty theft and disguise, not fighting. If he shows even the slightest intention to resist, he'll probably be pinned to the ground.
At this moment, Shao Yan felt as if his heart was being sliced apart by a knife.
It would be better to just stab him and end it quickly.
Why torture him with this silence?
Just then, Meng Wanyu walked up to him.
He paused in his steps.
When he met her sharp, cunning eyes, Shao Yan was terrified.
He could only feign composure, smile, and greet her.
Meng Wanyu nodded: "Hello."
Then he waved his hand dismissively.
"Tie this person up."
"Huh?!"
Shao Yan was completely dumbfounded. They just tied him up like that!
Should we say something first to give us a buffer?
When Lu Chengzhou looked at her, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
Meng Wanyu smiled and said, "Teacher Lu and I are truly on the same wavelength. I knew the answer just from your glance."
Lu Chengzhou: "..."
He felt that Meng Wanyu was not joking.
She really understands him.
This tacit understanding was something they gradually developed over time by spending so much time together.
Logically speaking, Lu Chengzhou should have felt very honored.
But for some reason, he felt a vague sense of fear at this moment.
This woman...
Tsk.
Meng Wanyu didn't seem to care what Lu Chengzhou thought. She simply took the man away and subjected him to severe torture.
This guy looked frail and weak, and he really was. After a few hits, he confessed everything.
"I was adopted by Grandpa Shao."
"The old man sent me here to look for something."
"But we haven't found it yet, have we?"
"Oh, really, I didn't take anything!"
Shao Yan spoke with tears streaming down his face, showing no sign of having any backbone whatsoever. Meng Wanyu even suspected that if he had a tail, he would be wagging it wildly at her right now to show his friendliness.
After dealing with cunning guys like Lu Chengzhou so many times, Meng Wanyu really disliked this kind of submissive man and lost interest in interrogating him further, so she sent him directly to the police station.
She didn't care whether he actually took the item or not.
"Go and investigate that old bastard surnamed Shao. Organize the information and send it to me later."
Meng Wanyu yawned and walked out of the room.
She still needs to see her often stubborn father.
……
In the evening.
In the study.
Boss Meng invited Lu Chengzhou to have tea and play chess with him.
Lu Chengzhou's chess skills are not bad, but Boss Meng is not bad either.
The sparring between the two was still limited to a point, with Lu Chengzhou deliberately holding back.
Boss Meng was clearly aware of the young man's lenient behavior, and he smiled with satisfaction.
"You little rascal, you actually know how to respect the elderly and care for the young."
"It's just that I'm being more respectful to you."
Lu Chengzhou naturally offered a compliment.
Mr. Meng smiled and took the chess pieces he had won.
How are you getting along with my daughters?
He also dropped a bombshell quite naturally.
"I think even if you try your best to show that you treat everyone equally, you can't really treat everyone equally, can you?"
Lu Chengzhou was undecided.
He coughed lightly and said, "Can we not discuss this topic?"
"No."
The chess piece fell to the ground with a thud.
Boss Meng looked him over with interest: "You're a very cunning guy. I'm afraid my daughters will suffer."
Lu Chengzhou gave a wry smile.
He didn't say it aloud, but he couldn't help thinking to himself, if you're really worried about your daughters being taken advantage of, you should keep them locked up in the big villa in Jingzhou instead of indulging them like this.
However, even if he had a hundred times the courage, he wouldn't dare to actually say those words.
This man is, after all, Miss Meng's father.
He still had to treat him as his father-in-law.
Respect is essential!
