As Shang Yucheng was preparing dinner, there was a knock on the door.

She unhurriedly put a lily in her hand in the vase, wiped her hands, walked over and opened the door.

"Sister-in-law." Shang Yucheng welcomed Zhao Yilin in with a smile.

Zhao Yilin was wearing a magenta cheongsam, although he was happy, but he looked a little old. The driver who followed behind her carried a few gift boxes in his hands, put them down in an orderly manner, and walked out.

Zhao Yilin looked around and smiled, "This courtyard used to be lived by a professor from St. John's University, surnamed Chen, Mrs. Chen was bored and asked me to play cards a few times on weekdays, but it was not always so beautiful, it can be seen that you have lived an elegant life." ”

Shang Yucheng smiled modestly and beckoned Zhao Yilin to sit down, "Jing Cheng always says that I don't do well in Chinese food on weekdays, but I don't admit defeat and am often willing to do it, and today my wronged sister-in-law will eat some with me." ”

Zhao Yilin looked at the dishes on the table, and said with a smile, "If the craftsmanship of this table is not good, it is also because the second brother is illiterate." Speaking of Lu Jingcheng, Zhao Yilin asked casually, "Why don't you see the second brother?" ”

Shang Yucheng sighed as if complaining, "I said that I was busy with business these days and didn't have time to come." I don't know what I'm busy with all day! ”

When Zhao Yilin heard this, he was inevitably a little embarrassed, and hurriedly said, "I heard Jing Peng say that he has been busy with business recently, and it probably took a lot of work to bring Jing Cheng with him." But soon after you return to Shanghai, it is time to accompany you well, I will talk to Jing Peng another day, and tell him not to arrange many things for Jing Cheng to do, although it is his own business, it is necessary to be careful, but in the end it is the most important thing to live! ”

Shang Yucheng smiled, "If Jing Cheng is as stable as a big brother, I don't worry about him." It's just that he's always been playful, and I'm just worried that he didn't do a good job and wasted a lot of effort. Now that the world is in turmoil, such a big Shanghai - there are everyone, if Jing Cheng makes friends with someone he shouldn't befriend, causing him to do something stupid, wouldn't it make me worry. ”

Zhao Yilin hurriedly comforted, "This will never be." The second brother is the most decent person, and he will never be like this. ”

Shang Yucheng nodded, "Sister-in-law is right, it's me who is worried." ”

As he spoke, the two moved their chopsticks, and Shang Yucheng said with a smile while eating, "Speaking of confusion, I heard a joke a few days ago, saying that someone in the Ledu Dance Hall was injured by sulfuric acid a few days ago, and there was a young master named Ye Shen who saved the beauty and was almost injured - I feel comforted when I think about it, Jing Cheng won't be so foolish outside." Shang Yucheng looked at Zhao Yilin with a smile, "It's not that I'm old-fashioned, the women outside here are always more complicated." ”

Zhao Yilin couldn't help but move in her heart, this Ye Shen, she naturally knew. Five years ago, Ye Shen had a rumor that a dancer had a bad relationship with Lu Jingpeng, and she had also heard it. It's just that she has always followed the rules and never asked. If Ye Shen is still thinking about the Fengyue Field, what about Lu Jingpeng? Zhao Yilin couldn't help but think of her husband's late return recently. She is not a sluggish woman, and she naturally feels her husband's coldness. Newly married for only half a year, if he didn't get his enthusiasm, would there be such a woman next to him?

Shang Yucheng looked at Zhao Yilin, who was a little distracted, lowered his head slightly, and ate quietly with food.

Soon after the meal, Zhao Yilin got up to say goodbye, and Shang Yucheng kept two sentences and sent her out. Not long after Zhao Yilin returned home, Shang Yucheng saw a strange person in charge enter the Lu family's mansion.

Shang Yucheng held a cup of coffee in his hand that was gradually becoming less steaming, and gently closed the curtains.

In Shang Yucheng's mouth, it seems that Lu Jingcheng, who is not doing his job, is indeed busy with business, it is already ten o'clock in the evening, he finally drove home, but after stopping the car, he turned around and went out and walked to Shang Yucheng's home.

Shang Yucheng sat on the sofa with an open book on her lap, but her eyes were not on the page.

Zhao Yilin's reaction today is not unexpected. She clearly took her words to heart.

Shang Yucheng's fingers unconsciously tapped lightly on the pages of the book, and he aroused Zhao Yilin's interest in Wu Hong's existence.

There were several knocks on the door before Shang Yucheng reacted, she walked into the courtyard and saw Lu Jingcheng with a gentle smile on his face through the railing door.

"Sleeping?" Lu Jingcheng asked with a smile.

"Aren't you going to sleep?" Shang Yucheng opened the door with a smile, "You came back so late?" ”

Lu Jingcheng nodded, took her hand and walked into the house.

After the two sat down, Lu Jingcheng said with a smile, "I haven't been with you for the past two days, I'm sorry." ”

Shang Yucheng shook his head and said softly, "You're busy with business, I know." How can I blame you? ”

Lu Jingcheng looked at her with some emotion, "Thank you, Yucheng." ”

Shang Yucheng didn't speak, he just got up and went to the kitchen to pour a glass of milk and handed it to Lu Jingcheng, and then sat quietly and listened to Lu Jingcheng talk about opening the store with great interest, with a cooperative smile on his face.

"Ye Shen really helped me a lot this time, not to mention helping me solve the transportation matter, and also found a very capable deputy manager for me. If the Ye family's ship arrives on time, it can be opened in a week at most. Lu Jingcheng smiled and sat closer, "How about the boss lady give a face, how about cutting the ribbon?" ”

Ye Shen helped Lu Jingcheng find an assistant manager? Didn't he already cut off contact with Lu Jingpeng, why did he show favor to Lu Jingcheng again? Shang Yucheng was about to ask, but the phone rang suddenly.

She subconsciously glanced up at the wall clock on the wall, it was nearly half past ten. The person who will call himself at this time, the most reasonable one is sitting in front of him, and the most likely one should be Shu Qiang.

Shang Yucheng turned his head to look at Lu Jingcheng, and then looked at the phone on Lu Jingcheng's right hand table, at such a close distance, would Lu Jingcheng hear the voice on the phone?

Lu Jingcheng glanced at his watch, "It's so late, who else is calling?" ”

Shang Yucheng shook his head and said he didn't know, got up and picked up the phone, "Hey." Hello. ”

"Hey, Miss Shang."

Sure enough, it was Shu Qiang's voice.

Shang Yucheng calmly responded, "Yes." I'm Shang Yucheng, who are you? ”

Shu Qiang on the other end of the phone paused for a moment, and immediately changed his tone, "Hello Miss Shang." This is the Metropolis Hotel, there is a package of you delivered to the hotel, do you need me to deliver it for you? ”

Not long after Shang Yucheng moved to a new house from the Capital Hotel, it would be reasonable if someone sent a package to the hotel, Shang Yucheng congratulated Shu Qiang's sensitivity in his heart, and said politely, "Thank you, but don't need to." I'll pick it up myself tomorrow. ”

"Okay, excuse me, goodbye." Shu Qiang hung up the phone, Shang Yucheng breathed a sigh of relief and put down the phone as well.

Lu Jingcheng yawned and stood up, "It's not early, you go to bed early." How about picking you up tomorrow night and going out to dinner? ”

Shang Yucheng smiled and nodded, and said thoughtfully, "You go back and go to bed early, don't be too tired." ”

Lu Jingcheng nodded, turned around and walked out the door.

Shang Yucheng watched Lu Jingcheng walk into the Lu family's mansion from the window, then got up and turned off the lights, and dialed the phone at Shu Qiang's house in the dim moonlight outside.

No one answered the phone, Shang Yucheng gently put down the receiver, leaned back on the sofa, and waited quietly.

Until the wall clock on the wall rang 11 o'clock gently, Shang Yucheng picked up the phone again, dialed it, and soon the phone was answered, and Shu Qiang's voice came from the other end of the phone, "Hey." ”

"It's a little inconvenient, what's the matter?" Shang Yu Cheng Road.

Shu Qiang had just stepped into the door when he heard the phone, and he hurriedly walked to pick up the phone, still holding the key to open the door. Hearing Shang Yucheng's voice, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Wu Hong and Lu Jingpeng met at Wu Hong's house tonight, and I found that besides me, there was another person staring at them. ”

Shang Yucheng immediately thought of Zhao Yilin, could it be her arrangement?

"The other party didn't find you, did they?" Shang Yucheng asked calmly.

Shu Qiang immediately understood, maybe the existence of the other stalker was not unexpected by Shang Yucheng, he hesitated for a moment before saying, "No." ”

Shang Yucheng thought for a moment and said, "Since you have seen that person who is watching, you might as well start from Zhao Yilin, the grandmother of the Lu family, to check his identity." As long as it doesn't affect us, let him continue. ”

Shu Qiang understood what Shang Yucheng meant and responded.

Shang Yucheng leaned back on the sofa, changed into a more comfortable position, and asked, "How is the meeting between Wu Hong and Lu Jingpeng tonight?" ”

"At about nine o'clock, Lu Jingpeng drove to Wu Hong's house alone, and left at half past ten, because he had a tail behind him, so I didn't come close to investigate, and there was no other gain."

Shang Yucheng nodded, "Okay, you continue to follow Wu Hong." Maybe Lu Jingpeng's tail will play an unexpected role. ”

Putting down the phone, Shu Qiang hurriedly washed up, sat down at the desk again, took out a document from the drawer, and opened the cover.

A one-inch photo was sandwiched at the front of the document, and although he had looked at it many times, Shu Qiang still picked up the slightly old and yellowed photo.

In the photograph is a girl with a sweet smile, a delicate headband neatly curls the long hair that falls over her shoulders, and a dark coat over a light-colored dress, revealing a soft-line neck.

This is a photo taken when Su Jingyao attended the Christmas ball of her classmates on the night of her accident five years ago, and no one would have thought that a few hours later, Su Jingyao would suffer a huge life change, which changed the life trajectory of a young girl in the flower season. And Su Jingyao in the past may never have imagined that the shame of that night was just the beginning.

Shu Qiang looked at it for a long time before he sighed softly and put down the photo and opened the document in front of him.

Five years ago, Lu Jingpeng had not yet taken over Huijin Group, and the identity of the eldest son of Huijin Group made him quite eye-catching in college, and the people who corresponded with him were all young masters and young masters of the consortium political leaders. Shu Qiang flipped through the documents and looked at the names inside.

When turning to Ye Shen's name, Shu Qiang's hand paused. Among all these people, the one who has a direct relationship with Lu Jingpeng and Wu Hongneng is this Ye Dagongzi.

Years of detective experience have taught Shu Qiang to recognize people more than just the surface. Ye Shen is a swinger with a nickname, he is high-profile and doesn't know how to restrain, will he be another gangster who hurt Su Jingyao back then?

Su Jingyao back then, although she was just a pampered young lady, she had righteousness in her bones. Shu Qiang recalled the scene of the year and slowly frowned.

Su Jingyao, who reported to the police the next day after the case happened, quickly helped the police determine that one of the gangsters was Lu Jingpeng, the eldest young man of the Lu family, but the Lu family was not something that Su Jingyao, who was born in a small rich family, could contend with.

Just before and after this incident, Ye Shen and Lu Jingpeng completely fought each other because of snatching Wu Hong in the dance hall, is it really as simple as it seems? Or did the conflict between the two of them stem from that sinful night?

Shu Qiang couldn't be sure, or even doubt. He put down the pages in his hand, leaned back in the chair behind him, and closed his eyes slightly.
