At the beginning, he was mistakenly identified as the person receiving the certificate by the boss.

On the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, before dawn, Fang Yan, Ning Cheng, and Gao Xiaoyuan drove off.

Every year on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, Lu Chen would visit Jiang Yurong's parents.

Jiang Yurong's two younger siblings have settled in the city after graduating from college. But her parents have always lived in the countryside.

The old couple are in their 70s this year, and their bodies are still strong. The family house was renovated a few years ago. The air in the countryside is good, you can grow vegetables, raise chickens, and live a comfortable life.

Jiang Yurong passed away more than 20 years ago, and they have long since overcome their grief.

However, over the past twenty years, the relationship with Lu Chen has never been broken. Lu Chen helped Jiang Yurong's younger siblings study and find jobs.

The old couple liked Lu Chen very much. Every year when Lu Chen went there, they would prepare a lot of local goods from the countryside for him.

Ning Cheng found out these things in advance from people nearby.

Most people nearby knew Lu Chen, and they also knew that Lu Chen was Jiang Yurong's boyfriend during his lifetime. Lu Chen has been married for more than 20 years and still takes care of the Jiang family as always, which makes people nearby envious of the Jiang family.

The reason why Fang Yan and Ning Cheng chose this day to take action was because Ning Cheng had discovered Lu Chen's route to Jiang's house in advance.

Although Lu Chen could drive directly to Jiang's home, there was a mountain road of more than ten kilometers along the way that was sparsely populated. It's most convenient to do it there.

Although you can do it in the city, it is a lot more troublesome. After all, there are surveillance cameras everywhere in the city, and once you don’t answer calls or respond to messages for an hour or two, it’s easy to arouse suspicion.

It's different in rural areas. Even if you don't answer the phone or reply to messages, people may think that the signal in rural areas is not good. Moreover, people who are familiar with him know what he was doing that day. No one would suspect him even if he didn't show up.

And Fang Yan and the others didn't plan to do anything to him.

I just wanted to tie the person to the nearby woods, and then force him to find out the content of Jiang Yurong's letter and then let him go.

The three of them first arrived at the foot of the mountain, parked the car, and then walked about 2 kilometers to ambush them at the location they had chosen in advance.

Gao Xiaoyuan wore a wig and makeup today, pretending to be a woman. The main reason is that he will appear in front of Lu Chen soon. Lu Chen would probably call the police after escaping danger, so they could only disguise themselves.

Gao Xiaoyuan is 22 years old and studying at a university in Shenzhou. He is the grandson of Uncle Gao.

Gao Bo's full name is Gao Chengcai. When he was young, he was Grandpa Tan's bodyguard. Later, when he got older, he became a housekeeper.

Uncle Gao's son died of illness very early, and his daughter-in-law remarried and went abroad. Uncle Gao raised Gao Xiaoyuan alone.

They had been living in Grandpa Tan's manor. Grandpa Tan passed away and the manor was left to Ning Cheng. Although they also bought a house, they, Ning Cheng and Fang Yan were already like a family. So he didn't move away, and Uncle Gao continued to work as Ning Cheng's housekeeper.

Fang Yan also grew up in this manor. In order not to expose her identity, she secretly investigated the cause of her parents' death. She used to rent a house. But this time Ning Cheng felt that the manor was safer, so Fang Yan moved back.

Gao Bo paid attention to Lu Chen in the city, and when Lu Chen set off, he delivered the news to the three of them. Including what car Lu Chen drove today, its license plate number, etc.

Fang Yan and Ning Cheng waited silently in the woods. Gao Xiaoyuan was waiting on the roadside wearing women's clothes.

They waited at a corner for about an hour. Fang Yan stood high in the woods and saw Lu Chen's car going up the mountain.

"Xiaoyuan, here we come!" Fang Yan gestured to Gao Xiaoyuan.

Gao Xiaoyuan immediately concentrated his energy.

As soon as he saw Lu Chen's car turning around, he rushed out from the side.

Lu Chen quickly braked, but the woman had already fallen in front of the car.

He didn't know why a woman suddenly appeared here, and he wondered if it was because of porcelain. Moreover, the speed of his car going up the hill was very slow, and it was impossible for him to hit anyone.

Although he had many thoughts in his mind, he quickly opened the car door and got out to see the situation. Whether it's a real collision or an accident, it has to be resolved.

Lu Chen focused all his attention on the woman in front of the car and didn't even notice there were two people in the woods.

He walked to the car, bent down to see the woman's condition, and suddenly felt a hit on the back of his head, and then passed out.

Ning Cheng held the person from behind, and then together with Gao Xiaoyuan, dragged the person deep into the woods.

When Fang Yan saw them dragging people in, she took out a black cloth from her backpack and covered Lu Chen's eyes. He took another rope and tied Lu Chen's hands.

After making sure everything was safe, he took out a small bottle, took some ointment and applied it to Lu Chen's nose.

This ointment is a refreshing medicine. After Lu Chen smelled it, he began to regain consciousness soon.

"Who are you and what are you doing?" Lu Chen could feel several people surrounding him with a knife around his neck, but he did not dare to shout.

He was a little nervous. He had lived for decades and had never encountered such a thing.

Seeing that no one answered him, Lu Chen felt a little unsure. But he has been working in the mall for so many years and has seen a lot of things, so he is somewhat courageous.

He thought that these people did not kill him directly, but tied him up. It was probably not a simple murder or vendetta.

Although he had many opponents in the business world, he had never imagined that one could be so antagonistic as to take his life.

The most likely possibility is that these people knew his identity and kidnapped him for ransom from the Lu family.

Thinking of this, he was temporarily relieved. At least his life was not in danger before they got the ransom. I just don’t know if these people plan to let him go after getting the ransom.

No matter what, he still had to find a way to escape.

"How much do you plan to ask the Lu family for?" Lu Chen asked tentatively.

Still no one answered him. Lu Chen's heart gradually sank. These people obviously have great ideas. Are they planning to silence themselves after getting the money?

Just when Lu Chen was getting more and more nervous, a cold male voice spoke.

"We just want to know something from you. As long as you are sensible, I guarantee that you can go out well. If you are not sensible, then we don't mind..."

Before he finished speaking, Lu Chen naturally knew what he meant. There was a hint of decisiveness in this man's voice, and he sounded like he specialized in this business.

Gao Xiaoyuan cast an approving look at Ning Cheng. This threatening aura was simply too classy.

Ning Cheng rolled his eyes at him, like a little brat, what do you know?

Gao Xiaoyuan looked unconvinced. When he saw Fang Yan pointing at Lu Chen, he gave up competing with Ning Cheng. It’s important to get down to business first.

"What do you want to know?" Lu Chen tried his best to keep his voice steady, not wanting to show his timidity in front of these people. But he felt uneasy. He suspected that the other party wanted to get the secrets of the Lu Group from him.

He was thinking about what he could say and what he absolutely couldn't say.

Then I heard the voice suddenly become sharp: "How did Jiang Yurong die?"
