After she died, Mr. Bo knelt in front of the tombstone and cried like a dog.

Soon, relevant investigators arrived at the scene.

Lu Zhilu and Nan Chu cooperated with the investigation and gave statements and took written records.

Because of the seriousness of the case, a large-scale case attracted the attention of the Shenzhen Stock Exchange leaders, who arrested Ji Yang overnight.

Ji Yang packed up his bag and ran away overnight, but was intercepted.

This midnight was full of ups and downs.

When Lu Zhilu and Nan Chu rushed back to the rental house, Meng Jingyi was hiding in the closet and shivering.

"mom……"

Nan Chu quickly pulled her out of the cabinet.

Meng Jingyi's face turned pale with fright, and she opened her lips but couldn't utter a word for a moment, until she saw Lu Zhilu and was startled.

"Jiaojiao, did I see the King of Hell?"

Nan Chu comforted her, "Mom, it's okay."

Meng Jingyi stared at Lu Zhilu: "Then why is he here? Am I sleepwalking?"

After Nan Chu explained, Meng Jingyi didn't hear a few words and just nodded in confusion.

It was very late, and Meng Jingyi had to have a good sleep to restore her energy and sanity.

After Nan Chu closed the door, he looked at Lu Zhilu who was sitting in the living room and said, "Why don't you go back to the hotel first? My mother is like this, and I have to take care of her."

"Okay, call me if you need anything."

When they reached the door, Lu Zhilu pulled her and kissed her before leaving.

……

The next day, the news that Ji Yang had smuggled, sold, and transported his grandmother was completely exposed, causing an uproar in public opinion.

After the morning news ended, Nan Chu received an @ message in the work group.

"Comrade Nan Chu has been in our station for two months, and this is such a big news in the newspaper. Congratulations!"

"Editor-in-Chief, don't just talk, apply for a reward! Who would be willing to apply for such a dangerous thing if there is no reward?"

"Okay, apply! We have all the big ones!"

"Nan Chu, you are awesome. You dare to follow me? You are really brave."

In the group, everyone was joking with each other and occasionally praising her.

She didn't dare to take more credit, and only replied modestly: "I was lucky to come across it."

The editor-in-chief said: "Let's celebrate tonight and invite you to dinner!"

As soon as I returned to the main interface of WeChat from the group, a message from [Lu] popped up.

[What do you mean, do you want to go back to the capital with me to see Lu Ruzhuo? ]

But tomorrow is not Saturday, it's a weekday.

Nan Chu: [Our department editor-in-chief is inviting us to dinner tonight.]

A few seconds after she sent this sentence, she asked again: [Are you going back to the capital today? ]

Lawyer Lu Zhi was delayed in the Shenzhen Stock Exchange for several days. There were several difficult clients in the law firm who were calling him frantically.

Another reason was that he had to go back and talk to the old man about Nan Chu, and he didn't want to stay outside for too long, lest the old man be unhappy, which would make things more difficult to discuss.

If you want the old man to give in, you have to coax him. After all, you shouldn't hit someone who smiles at you.

Lu: [I have booked a ticket back in the afternoon. Can we meet during lunch break?]

Because she was reporting the morning news, there wasn't much to do in the afternoon after the morning news, so the lunch break was quite long.

Last time they ate seafood sashimi, she ran away without paying the bill. This time he helped her pick up a big exclusive. Even if he didn't make any contribution, he had worked hard. After thinking about it, she decided to treat him to a good meal.

[Where are we going to eat at noon? You choose a restaurant, I'll treat you.]

Lu: [Are you sure? I only eat expensive ones.]

Nanchu: [It cannot exceed five thousand.]

Lu Zhilu was just teasing her. He ate all kinds of delicacies every day and was tired of them. He had no interest in those restaurants.

[It's too sunny outside. I was tired all night yesterday and my legs are still sore. Please come to the hotel to find me. I have booked a meal for two at the hotel.]

The Mandarin Oriental Hotel where he was staying was not far from the TV station and he could get there quickly by taxi.

Seeing him say his legs hurt, Nan Chu felt a little guilty.

[Do you want to go to the hospital? I will go with you? ]

Lu: [I don’t want to go. Just stay like this. I’m lying down.]

Nan Chu: "..."

Lu Zhilu seems to be always lazy. Most of the time he is really lazy and he is also afraid of trouble.

At noon, Nan Chu took a taxi to Mandarin Oriental.

When I arrived at the executive suite, Lu Zhilu was sitting on the bed, slightly hunched over, talking on the phone.

I don’t know who is on the other end, but his face is very gentle, and his tone is quite gentle and patient: “Go to sleep, call me if you miss me, and when I’m free, I’ll fly to Paris to see you.”

Seeing Nan Chu coming, he coaxed the person opposite him and smiled at Nan Chu.

Nan Chu: "..."

Coax two at the same time?

When he hung up the phone, he hugged her and said, "Are you hungry? I'll have someone bring up lunch."

Nan Chu broke away from him and asked, "You still have a mistress in Paris?"

"..."

Lu Zhilu was stunned for a moment, then laughed out loud: "What mistress? I'm just coaxing the child."

Nan Chu's eyes widened in shock, and he was a little angry. "Child? You have a child in Paris? Lu Zhilu, are you kidding me?"

She remembered, Xia Xun.

Is this his and Xia Xun’s child?

Anger of being played with again after realizing it too late burned in Nan Chu's chest. Nan Chu picked up the pillow on the bed and threw it at him, "Lu Zhilu, how can you be such a scumbag! You already have a child abroad, yet you still come to pester me! Your child with Xia Xun is already so big, and you..."

Lu Zhilu snatched the pillow from her hand and threw it back on the bed, "How do you know about Xia Xun?"

Nan Chu was so angry, "Is it strange that I know? How would I know that you are not unfaithful? I really see through you. From now on, don't come to me again!"

She turned to leave.

Lu Zhilu went over to pull her, but she raised her foot and kicked his leg hard.

Lu Zhilu cursed in pain.

Nan Chu was startled, and her heart began to panic when she saw him bending over and rubbing his legs.

"Did I kick hard? I didn't mean to."

She wanted to help him sit over there and talk later.

Lu Zhilu grabbed her arm and pulled her into his arms, "You are really good at kicking, kicking right at the wound."

Nan Chu wanted to push him away, but his arms were held tightly, and he half dragged and half hugged her to the bed, and they both sat down on it.

Nan Chu said indignantly: "I was so carried away these past two days that I forgot that you have a child abroad. Lu Zhilu, let's..."

"Are you going to count it again?"

Lu Zhilu interrupted her directly, sighing with both anger and amusement: "In your mind, I am so messy that I can have an illegitimate child at any time, right?"

Nan Chu: “…I didn’t say that.”

But she knew about it when he accompanied Xia Xun for a prenatal checkup a few years ago.

If it wasn't his child, would he, who is so high up in the world, be kind enough to accompany someone for a prenatal checkup?

Lu Zhilu looked at her and remembered something: "Last time you went to the military hospital to see me, you saw Xia Xun in my ward, right?"

Nan Chu pursed her lips and neither denied nor responded.

Lu Zhilu said calmly: "You should have come in and said hello to them."

Nan Chu frowned, and said in a somewhat sarcastic tone, "What are you saying hello to? Are the first and second wives saying hello to each other?"

"...What kind of bastard do you think I am? According to seniority, you should call Xia Xun sister-in-law."

Nan Chu was dumbfounded, "What? Sister-in-law?!"
