After a moment of silence, it was Jiang Luyao who spoke first: "Since you want to go so much, don't pretend to be entangled, lest people think that I deliberately dragged you to prevent you from 'saving people'. In the future, she will really have troubles." , and blame it on me.”

Qiao Mucheng glanced at her indifferently, and after a while, finally said: "You go in first, and I will come back as soon as possible."

Although he had already guessed the result, Jiang Luyao's heart immediately turned cold when he heard these words.

She still had a smile on her face, but that smile didn't have much warmth. "Why do you come back? After you save someone, you should comfort them, right? Otherwise, what if she looks for life after you leave?"

There was a sense of sarcasm in her tone, and without waiting for Qiao Mucheng to reply, she turned around and got out of the car, and walked towards the gate of Lei's house without looking back.

Qiao Mucheng watched her back quietly, and did not drive away until he saw her enter the courtyard gate.

Jiang Luyao followed Lei's housekeeper into the courtyard gate, glanced back through the fence, saw that Qiao Mucheng had already left, and suddenly felt a sense of loss in his heart, and then he collected his emotions and followed the housekeeper into the villa.

"Yaoyao, you are finally here." Lei Guanting walked towards her with a smile on his face, and when he saw that she was alone, a puzzled look flashed across his face, "Where's the kid?"

Jiang Luyao suppressed the unhappiness in his heart, and replied, "I went to save people."

Lei Guanting frowned, "Save someone?"

Jiang Luyao waved his hand, "Don't mention him. Uncle Lei, I should have come earlier, but because of some things, it took me so long. Don't blame me for being rude."

Lei Guanting smiled heartily: "Why are you being polite to uncle? As long as you can come, I will be very happy!"

The two sat down in the living room while talking.

"I didn't have a chance to ask you about the details at the reception that day. Now I can tell my uncle what happened to the Jiang family, right?" Lei Guanting directly asked the question he was most concerned about.

Jiang Luyao thought for a while, and it happened that Qiao Mucheng was not there, so she could tell everything about that year according to the original plan.

After listening to her narrate the events of that year in detail, Lei Guanting pondered for a long time with a serious expression, and there seemed to be a hint of doubt between his brows.

"You mean, all of this was caused by that kid Qiao Mucheng? And his purpose is to get the Jiang Group?" he asked.

Jiang Luyao nodded, "Later, my sister went to investigate, and the Jiang Group was indeed acquired by the Imperial Group."

Lei Guanting fell silent again, and Jiang Luyao asked strangely when he saw this, "Uncle Lei, do you think there is something wrong?"

Lei Guanting shook his head, "I'm just a little strange. Although I don't have much personal contact with Qiao Mucheng, according to my intuition, he doesn't look like this kind of person."

This sentence made Jiang Luyao a little surprised. She didn't expect Uncle Lei to react like this after listening to her story.

"If he looked like this, my father and I would not have been fooled by him back then." Mentioning her father, she felt sad again.

Lei Guanting was noncommittal about this, so he had no choice but to say: "It's not that uncle doesn't believe you, but he just thinks there are some doubts about this matter and needs to be investigated again. But since you are so sure that he harmed the Jiang family, why did you marry him again?" give him?"

Jiang Luyao thought for a while and replied, "I want to take back all the things he took away from me. There is no better way than approaching him in this way."

Lei Guanting was silent for a moment, then looked at her hesitantly, as if he wanted to say something.

Jiang Luyao said bluntly, "Uncle Lei, if you have anything to say, just say it."

Lei Guanting pondered for a while, and then said: "When you left suddenly, I searched everywhere to no avail, so I asked someone to investigate some things secretly. It is true that the Jiang Group was acquired by the Imperial Group, but as far as I know Well, when Qiao Mucheng bought Jiang's, the company was almost left as an empty shell. As for where all its funds have gone, I haven't found out yet."

Jiang Luyao hesitated for a moment, and then sneered, "With the city of Qiao Mucheng, of course there is no way to do such a thing. He can use other methods to transfer all the funds away, and then come to buy this empty shell."

However, Lei Guanting shook his head and said, "If it's true as you said, since he got the funds, why bother to buy this useless shell to cause trouble for himself?"

Jiang Luyao frowned, this question seemed to be a little unclear.But after thinking about it, Qiao Mucheng has never played cards according to the routine, who can guess what he thinks?

"Uncle Lei, you seem to believe in Qiao Mucheng's character? But those evidences were collected by my second sister over the years, and there is no way they could be wrong. The only explanation is that he also lied to you."

Lei Guanting said in a deep voice: "I don't know much about Qiao Mucheng's character, so I won't comment. The reason why I have doubts about what you said is that apart from the acquisition of Jiang's, it is more Because judging from his attitude towards you, he should care about you very much, so why did he do that kind of thing back then?"

Jiang Luyao was taken aback when he heard the words, did Qiao Mucheng care about her?

If it was in the past, she would have scoffed at it immediately.But after what happened in the past few days, she has gradually wavered.

But even so, she still did not agree with Lei Guanting's opinion.

"Uncle Lei, you may not know Qiao Mucheng well. He has a very clear understanding of what he wants and what he wants to do. Once he is determined, he will not change because of any factors. So even if he You really care about me, and you won’t give up doing that because of me.”

Lei Guanting pondered for a while, nodded and said: "What I said just now is just some speculation, and you don't have to take it too seriously. But no matter what the truth is about this matter, uncle will definitely stand by your side. I will discuss it later. Continue to let people investigate what happened back then, and if you encounter any difficulties in the future, you can come to Uncle anyway."

Jiang Luyao nodded gratefully, this is exactly what she wanted to ask Lei Guanting to do.In the past, except for Qi Sizuo, there was hardly anyone around her who could help, and Qi Sizuo didn't know what he was up to recently, and there was no one around.

Now that Uncle Lei is a strong backer, it is like a tiger with wings added to what she wants to do.

While they were talking, the door of the living room was suddenly pushed open, Lei Guanting and Jiang Luyao turned their heads at the same time, but the person who came in obviously didn't expect anyone at home, so he also froze in place.

Lei Guanting's originally kind face darkened instantly, and he said with a serious face: "You kid still have the face to come back?"

Lei Zixiao stood at the door, smiled guiltyly, and replied casually, "What are you talking about? This is my home. Where else can I go if I don't come back?"

Lei Guanting glared at him, "As soon as he disappears, he won't be seen for half a month. How dare you say this is your home?"

Lei Zixiao handed the coat on his shoulders to the housekeeper, and said as he walked over, "Dad, I'm almost 30 years old. I occasionally go out to socialize for a few days, and I still have to report to you? You can't let people know if you say it." Laugh your teeth out!"

It wasn't until he got closer that he noticed Jiang Luyao's existence. The moment he saw her, his expression paused, and then a smile bloomed on his face.

"Little daughter-in-law?! I read it right!" He ran over excitedly, sat down beside Jiang Luyao carelessly, and put his arms around her shoulders unceremoniously. Not seen but unfamiliar.

Lei Guanting's eyeballs almost popped out: "Let me go! Do you think you are only in your teens? Do you understand some etiquette?"

At first, Jiang Luyao was a little stranger to Lei Zixiao because of the long absence, but after being made such a fuss by him, the distance was suddenly shortened, as if everything was still the same as before, nothing had changed.

Because of the jokes made by his parents when he was a child, Lei Zixiao always called her "little daughter-in-law". Even after she met Qiao Mucheng, he insisted on not changing his words.

Unexpectedly, after so many years, he is still the same.

Jiang Luyao defended him with a smile: "Uncle Lei, it's okay, I know Brother Zi Xiao has no other intentions, but it's been too long since I haven't seen you, so I'm a little more enthusiastic."

Lei Zixiao held her shoulders and looked at her carefully, as if he had finally digested the reunion with her. After a long while, he asked: "Little daughter-in-law, where have you died all these years?" ? My brother misses you so much!"

Lei Guanting looked like he was about to hit someone, and he stared and said: "Don't call me random, Yaoyao is already married, you are shameless, people have to care about reputation."

He has always been merciless when scolding his son, but Lei Zixiao is used to scolding by him, so he doesn't care at all.

"What? Little daughter-in-law, I've waited so hard for you for so many years, and you actually married in secret? Are you worthy of me defending you like a jade?" Lei Zixiao asked in feigned surprise.

Jiang Luyao knew that Lei Zixiao had always been so out of tune, so he had no choice but to smile helplessly, raised his hand and punched him on the shoulder, and said, "You don't want to get married because you haven't played enough, don't even think about it." Throw the blame to me, I will not take the blame!"

Lei Zixiao burst out laughing when he heard the words, Lei Guanting beside him stared angrily.

"Seriously, why did you disappear without a word back then? Where have you been all these years? You didn't even give me any news, you are really cruel." Lei Zixiao finally put away his foolish look.

Jiang Luyao told him the general situation again. After listening, even Lei Zixiao, who was always joking, looked serious.

"Why are you carrying such a big thing by yourself? If you came back earlier, wouldn't my dad and I help you?" His tone was reproachful and distressed.

Jiang Luyao felt warm in his heart, shook his head, and said, "What happened back then was so sudden that I didn't have time to react. For a long time after that, I felt like I was stupid. What happened after that It was all arranged by the second sister, so I had no choice but to follow her to the United States. Later, I was only thinking about revenge, so I didn't care about other things."
