However, the rich girl had never mentioned it in front of him before, as if she was deliberately avoiding the topic.
And then suddenly mentioned...
"Well, what happened?"
Glancing at Lu Shuyu, Lu Chen didn't hide anything and nodded in agreement, "It should be after the May Day holiday."
"That, that..."
The little rich woman's voice became even smaller, and she hesitated: "Then she should need a long time to recover after the operation."
"That's for sure. Although I'm not sure, I'll have to stay in the hospital for at least a month."
Lu Chen was even more puzzled, and said suspiciously: "No, why are you asking this?"
"Nothing, just..."
Lu Shuyu pinched her fingers and whispered:
"I just feel that Wanqing will not be able to cook for you during this period, and I just happen to be learning cooking recently..."
???
ha?
What do you mean? ?
Is this intended to seamlessly replace Qing Bao???
I am surrounded by beautiful cooking girls? ?
Staring at Lu Shuyu with wide eyes, Lu Chen was stunned for a moment. After a series of question marks, a scene instantly appeared in his mind.
A month later, Qingbao finally recovered and was discharged from the hospital. She excitedly pushed open the kitchen door with bags of food, but was shocked to find that her kitchen had become like another woman's.
A two-hundred-yuan air fryer turned into a twenty-thousand-yuan steam-and-bake machine.
A fifty-dollar iron pan turned into a five-thousand-dollar non-stick pan.
The small sink turned into a large fully automatic dishwasher.
A three-hundred-yuan rice cooker has turned into a thirty-thousand-yuan high-end smart... uh, rice cooker.
"pat~"
His body swayed, and the plastic bag containing pork elbow meat that cost 15 yuan per pound in the vegetable market fell to the ground, along with Qingbao's tears.
Huangmao heard the noise and ran over. Qingbao quickly wiped away his tears and took out a starch sausage in a flattering manner.
As a result, Huangmao dodged with disdain.
Because nowadays, ham that is not from Iberia is not even looked at...
Holy shit! This is horrible!
Thinking of this, Lu Chen quickly shook his head and immediately refused:
"No need! I'm not incapable of taking care of myself. I can cook for myself!"
"what......"
Being rejected by Lu Chen so predictably, Lu Shuyu's expression suddenly became lost.
"Well, then..."
Don't look so pitiful!
I won't allow Qingbao to suffer any injustice!
"Anyway, I appreciate your kindness, but..."
Looking at Lu Shuyu with a serious face, Lu Chen was just about to emphasize once again the unshakable position of Qin Wanqing.
But at this moment, the rich woman's cell phone at the table suddenly rang.
Seeing "Uncle Li" on the screen, Lu Chen shut up instantly.
Lu Shuyu quickly adjusted his mood and answered the phone.
Lu Chen couldn't hear clearly what Butler Li was saying, but he could see that the rich woman's eyes were becoming more and more surprised.
About three or four minutes later, just as Lu Shuyu hung up the phone, he immediately asked:
"What's wrong? Did you find that person?"
"No...but there is one very strange thing."
"What's the matter?"
"It's that five hundred dollars..."
"What five hundred...oh, what happened to the money?"
Lu Chen remembered the five hundred yuan that the mysterious man left for the cemetery manager as a thank you, and was confused.
"Why, it can't have suddenly turned into ghost money or something like that, right?"
"Not really... This is a photo taken by Uncle Li."
Lu Shuyu handed over the phone in a daze, and on the screen was the back of a hundred-yuan RMB note.
Lu Chen frowned as he took the phone, looking left and right for a long time, and then at a certain moment his eyes suddenly widened, his expression becoming extremely stunned.
"this......"
I enlarged the photo in disbelief, stared at it carefully for a long time, but the bright red words "2025" remained unchanged.
This is the year number.
Every RMB note, regardless of denomination, has the year printed on the back.
This year number refers to the year of plate making, not the year of printing. Currently, the two editions circulating on the market are basically 2005 and 2015.
But at this moment, the year on the hundred-dollar bill in the photo is "2025".
So, it's either a fake note.
Or it's a banknote that won't be issued until next year.
Chapter 193 Success or failure depends on this one move!
With the appearance of this "counterfeit money", things undoubtedly became more wrong.
No matter how bizarre and outrageous the previous things were, they were within the scope of "science" after all. It was just that Lu Chen didn't know what the purpose of that mysterious man was.
But now...
Five minutes later, after hastily devouring a piece of freshly fried wagyu beef, Lu Chen and Lu Shuyu left the restaurant and went upstairs back to the "Operation Center".
"How did Uncle Li deal with it later?"
As soon as he entered the room, Lu Chen asked a crucial question: "How many people know about this now?"
"Uncle Li told Dad first."
Lu Shuyu answered truthfully: "Dad asked him to keep it a secret, so currently only you, me, Dad, Uncle Li, and the administrator know about it."
Okay.
It seems that Lu Guanghong knows his own weight.
Lu Chen nodded when he heard this and breathed a sigh of relief.
Although the Lu family can barely be considered a wealthy family, they cannot even claim to be "all-powerful" in Yanjiang, let alone in the whole country.
And the new version of the currency was leaked in advance...The impact of this incident is no less than the leak of college entrance examination questions. Once it gets to the authorities, it will inevitably cause a lot of trouble.
Lu Chen was not afraid that Lu Guanghong could not handle it, but he was actually afraid that he would be implicated.
After all, the authorities will definitely investigate me after they intervene. What if my identity as a superpower is exposed?
Shaking his head, Lu Chen didn't think any further.
At least the news has been blocked now, and the administrator has probably been dealt with by Butler Li, so there is no risk in this regard for the time being.
"Lu Chen, do you think that money could not be counterfeit?"
On the other side, Lu Shuyu saw that he looked as if facing a formidable enemy, so he silently took a glass of water and handed it to him.
"Uncle Li said it didn't pass the money detector, so it might be fake."
"It shouldn't be fake."
Lu Chen took a sip of water. "After all, it's a new version that will be released next year. There's no guarantee that there will be any changes to the layout. It's normal that it didn't pass the money detector."
"The most important thing is, who would forge a banknote that hasn't been issued yet? Isn't that mentally ill?"
"That's right...but why does that person have unissued banknotes?"
"Who knows..."
Lu Chen actually had a bold guess in his mind, but he didn't say it out loud.
"Anyway, as long as we can find that person, everything will be fine...Have you checked the surveillance cameras outside the cemetery?"
"I checked, but there are no clues."
Lu Shuyu shook his head: "Uncle Li checked the surveillance footage of the cemetery gate from last night to this morning, and that person never showed up."
"Is there any other exit from the cemetery?"
"No, but the cemetery is not closed. It is connected to Yunshan Mountain. It is possible that he got out of the mountain."
"Is there any surveillance near Yunshan?"
"There is a road nearby. Uncle Li is checking it now."
"Fine......"
Lu Chen muttered something, sat down on the sofa, and said nothing more.
Although there was no reason, he suddenly felt that it would be a waste of effort to investigate further.
After all, next year's banknotes have all come out, so it wouldn't be strange even if that mysterious man disappeared out of thin air now.
In the final analysis, the most important thing is this person's purpose...
