Fang Yan looked at Lu Chen in the garden and was lost in thought.

There must be something she missed? It is impossible to leave no trace of anything you have done. It's just that she didn't notice it.

"Ayan, what are you thinking about?"

A kind voice brought Fang Yan back from her thoughts. Turning around, I saw Mrs. Lu walking over holding two large boxes.

"Grandma, do you have so many photos of Chengze when he was a child?" Fang Yan asked as she stood up to take the box from the old lady's hand.

"Hey, no way! He didn't like taking pictures when he was a child. There aren't many photos in total. The family photos are all put together, including Chengze's. I'll accompany you to find them slowly."

The feelings belong to the whole family, Fang Yan nodded. He put the box he received from the old lady on the coffee table in front of the sofa, and then pulled the old lady to sit on the sofa.

The old lady opened the box and Fang Yan looked at the photos, which were all from a certain age. Most of the photos are black and white, with some yellowing.

Think about it, in the past ten years, young people have basically used electronic photo albums. They can just pull them out on their mobile phones or computers. Who wants to print out the photos?

Fang Yan took out the photos and looked through them one by one.

The old lady was standing by as an interpreter. Whenever I talk about Lu Chengze, I will talk about it in great detail.

Occasionally, Fang Yan would ask questions. But she would not directly ask about things related to Lu's Medicine, which would easily make people suspicious.

As people age, they have fewer things to focus on, and they often miss the past. Fang Yan could patiently listen to the old lady telling her about the past, which greatly satisfied the old lady's desire to talk.

"This is when Chengze was 3 years old. Look how cute he was. But he was very naughty at that time! Haha!"

"This is when he was 5 years old. Next to him were Chengye and Jiang Yuan. What a wonderful couple we had as brothers and sisters when we were young!" The old lady didn't realize it. When she said this, her tone was regretful.

"This was when Chengze was 8 years old. He looked very mature at such a young age. Alas, Meihui was very strict with him and wanted to be first in everything."

Fang Yan curled her lips. She felt that Luo Meihui was what netizens said was a typical example of someone who couldn't fly herself and laid eggs for the next generation to fly hard.

Lu Chengze was obviously born in a golden nest. Even if he could not inherit the Lu Group, he would still have no problem with food and clothing for the rest of his life.

The result is even worse than the orphans in the orphanage. They worked hard to study since childhood, and when they grow up, they have to start their own business under pressure. Fortunately, it was successful. If the business failed, not only would he become the laughing stock of others, but he would also lose the shame to return to the Lu Group.

Therefore, she really couldn't understand Luo Meihui's brain circuit. Still applying for a bachelor's degree? In her opinion, she might have used up her brain by reading, so that she couldn't distinguish between the important and the important.

Fang Yan didn't notice that from the time she tricked Lu Chengze into getting the certificate, until now, she had unconsciously put herself into the other person's situation and felt sorry for Lu Chengze.

Fang Yan continued to look through the photos, and then looked at a photo of a ribbon cutting for a long time.

Mrs. Lu explained: "This is a photo of the ribbon cutting on the day Lu's Medicine was established. That year, Chengze had just been born."

"Oh?" Fang Yan trailed off in a long voice, and then praised: "Grandpa still has a vision, the pharmaceutical industry is so prosperous now!"

The old lady was not suspicious of her compliment and responded with a smile: "Yes, your grandpa has always had a good eye for business."

After speaking, he sighed: "However, Lu's Medicine was also very difficult at the beginning."

"is it?"

The old lady nodded with a smile and explained to Fang Yan: "Our Lu family started in the department store business a hundred years ago, and it has grown bigger and bigger in the following decades. But times are changing, and there are no evergreen trees in the business world. More than thirty years ago, the financial industry The crisis occurred and the department store industry declined. In order to survive, Lu slowly began to get involved in other industries."

"At that time, your grandfather was optimistic about real estate and medicine, and invested a lot of money in these two industries. He also established a research and development team specifically for Lu's Medicine. But in the first few years, our research and development team did not have any outstanding results. The investment in research and development was extremely huge. At that time, the entire Lu Group was a little overwhelmed. Your grandfather was also anxious and wanted to sell Lu Group Medicine."

"Thankfully, not long after your third uncle graduated, he proposed to cooperate with an outside R&D team. Your grandfather finally found the idea. It was not until Ludizumab was launched that Lu's Pharmaceuticals came back to life and became better and better."

Fang Yan nodded slowly, her eyes were deep and she didn't know what she was thinking.

Ludizumab is an anti-cancer drug developed based on the research results of my parents. Now, it is still a cash cow for Lu Group.

But the old lady's words did not make it clear. Who was the person who prompted Ren Chonghuai to sell the research results to the Lu family? Is it Mr. Lu or Lu Chen?

Fang Yan tentatively praised: "Uncle Third has a way!" She wanted to wait for the old lady to say something more useful.

But the old lady felt uncomfortable when she heard Fang Yan's praise. It was precisely because of Lu Chen's excellence that the dispute between the three families of the Lu family began. Now that the second wife has withdrawn, who still can't understand the fight between the eldest grandson and the youngest son for the Lu family?

Therefore, she didn't say much on this issue.

Fang Yan suppressed her disappointment and continued to look through the photos.

She also saw the old lady's disappointment, guessed the reason, and led her to tell some interesting things about Lu Chengze's childhood, which coaxed the old lady to smile again.

"what?"

The old lady glanced at the photo in Fang Yan's hand, a college graduation photo of a man and a woman standing together.

"This is your third uncle!"

Fang Yan naturally saw that the person in the photo was Lu Chen, but the woman next to her was obviously not Liu Fu.

After thinking about it, I asked: "This doesn't seem to be the third aunt."

The old lady only thought that Fang Yan was gossiping, and most of the family knew about it, so she didn't hide it.

"This is your third uncle's school girl. They go to the same school. At that time, the two of them were in love, but their families didn't agree. Your third uncle made a lot of noise."

"Grandma, why doesn't the family agree?" Fang Yan was a little surprised. If the Lu family was a family that valued family status, then Luo Meihui would not be able to enter.

"It's not that I don't agree, I just want him to think it over carefully. Although we don't pay attention to family status, after all, the environment we grew up in is different. Your third uncle was young at the time, and we were afraid that he would act on impulse and regret it in the future."

What Mrs. Lu was embarrassed to say in front of Fang Yan was that it was precisely because of the conflicts that occurred after Lu Jin and Luo Meihui fell in love and got married that they became wary of Lu Chen's relationship.

"Does this girl have a bad family?" Fang Yan asked.

Mrs. Lu thought that Fang Yan was an orphan and was worried that she would overthink it, so she quickly explained.

"This girl is very good. She went to the same school as your third uncle and studied law. It's just that her family is in a difficult situation and the girl has a low self-esteem. It's not that we disagree, we just want to give your third uncle one more choice. So I introduced your third aunt to him."

"Your third aunt liked your third uncle very much at that time, but your third uncle didn't even look at me. We occasionally tried to persuade him or her, but he would start trouble with the family."

Fang Yan didn't believe this. If it was really Lu Chen's own choice, how could he have trouble with his family? The family must have put pressure on Lu Chen at that time.

However, Fang Yan would not say this. She just pretended to be gossiping and asked curiously: "Then how did the third uncle separate from her later?"

Fang Yan thought they must have broken up, otherwise what would happen to Liu Fu? I wonder what roles the Lu family and the old couple played in this?

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Lu sighed loudly and then said: "It doesn't matter. When your third uncle was 25 years old, this girl was poisoned by gas in the rental house and disappeared!"
