Lu Siheng moved his nose and slowly opened his tightly closed eyes, and what came into view was an empty living room.

It's bright outside.

He sat up from the sofa, raised his hand and touched the left cheekbone, and the slight pain made him frown.

I looked at the time and it was already half past six.

He walked to the bathroom in his slippers, turned on the faucet, and used the water to wash his cheeks.

Lu Siheng was suddenly stunned and raised his head abruptly to look at himself in the mirror.

The swelling on my cheekbone has mostly subsided and is barely noticeable anymore.

There seems to be a faint smell of medicine in the nose?

Last night, when he was half asleep, he felt as if someone was touching him, which reminded him of something in an instant.

He turned around and walked quickly upstairs to Lin Qingran's room.

The door remained the same as it was yesterday, tightly closed.

Lu Siheng raised his hand and knocked gently on the door.

No one responded.

He turned the doorknob tentatively.

The door can be opened.

There was nothing inside.

The light in Lu Siheng's eyes dimmed instantly.

It turned out that he was overthinking. She didn't come back last night. The smell of medicine just now was probably his illusion...

Lu Siheng finally closed her door and went downstairs feeling lost.

Lin Qingran came out of the artist management department, feeling so sleepy that she felt dizzy and euphoric.

Last night, an artist that a company was focusing on training was exposed by a rival company and became a hot topic. The artist's management department was in chaos, and calls for instructions were frequently made to her.

She was not feeling sleepy, so she went straight back to the company and worked overtime all night. Now the matter has finally been settled.

After returning to the office, she called Shen Yan who was downstairs.

"Boss Lin, you're looking for me?"

Lin Qingran moved her eyes away from the computer and fell on his face, "Can you help me with something?"

"Boss Lin, just tell me what you need me to do." Shen Yan was a little flattered. "Why are you being so polite?"

"It's not a business matter, it's a private matter."

Shen Yan was puzzled, "What's the matter?"

Lin Qingran asked him: "Do you have any way to contact that kind of professional team of thugs? I want to find a reliable and well-trained one."

Shen Yan wiped his sweat and asked, "What do you want to do?"

"I want to beat someone up." Lin Qingran thought for a moment, then said, "Don't get me wrong, I just want to give him a little punishment. It will serve as a warning, not to kill or maim him."

"Yes, there is." Shen Yan thought for a while and said, "I have a friend who knows someone. I can help you get in touch with him."

Lin Qingran hummed, "Then thank you for your help. Money is not a problem."

"Okay, I'll go ask for you right away."

Shen Yan went out and came back.

"Boss Lin, I asked them about this for you. They are professionals in this kind of thing. You just need to send them your request and they can guarantee that they will handle the aftermath absolutely and will never involve the employer. Moreover, they do cash transactions and there is no human contact during the transaction. They are very rigorous and absolutely reliable."

"Okay." Lin Qingran signed a document in her hand and put it aside, saying calmly, "Then let them do as I ask."

The 30th floor of Lu Group.

Lu Heng stood at the door and looked around for a long time. When he found that there was no one else around, he stealthily pushed open the door of Lu Siheng's office and went in.

He dragged a chair and sat down opposite Lu Siheng, lowering his voice and asking, "Did Lu Chengkang come to see you yesterday?"

"No yesterday." Lu Siheng shook his head lightly, "But he came to me today."

"What did he tell you?"

"He wasn't looking for me, he just ran into me in the elevator." Lu Siheng lowered his eyes to look at the documents on the table and said slowly, "He said you are still immature and told me not to take yesterday's incident to heart."

"This old guy..." Lu Heng clenched his fist and gritted his teeth, "It's been a year, and he hasn't made any moves. Do you think he is really the murderer of our father?"

"I don't know." Lu Siheng put down his pen, clasped his hands, and looked at Lu Heng. "Before the truth comes out, anyone could be the murderer of my father."

That year, the old man found him and offered his advice, hoping that he would not disclose his background when he returned.

Because whether it is the Lu family or within the group, the situation is very chaotic.

And when his true identity is exposed, all the malice will be focused on him.

The old man was worried that he would find it difficult to adapt to the intrigues in the country after staying abroad for too long.

Especially when Lu Qingyun’s affair has not been clarified yet, Lu Siheng will soon become the next Lu Qingyun.

The old man hopes that he can temporarily restrain his edge, appear as an illegitimate child to confuse outsiders, and then join the game himself, with Lu Xiulin and Lu Heng fanning the flames to make him stand on the side of Lu Chengkang, secretly find out whether Lu Chengkang is related to Wen Yu's car accident and Lu Qingyun's death.

"Oh, right." Lu Heng thought of something, leaned closer, and whispered in Lu Siheng's ear, "I suspect someone wants to kill me."

Lu Siheng frowned, puzzled, "You said someone wants to kill you?"

"When I came up from the underground parking lot just now, I felt like someone was following me. It was a sinister feeling..."

Lu Heng shrank his neck and said tremblingly, "Brother, do you think it was that old man Lu Chengkang? He first killed my dad and then killed me..."

Lu Heng hugged Lu Siheng's arm pitifully, "Brother, if he really kills me, you have to avenge me together with Brother Xiulin."

Lu Siheng glanced at the other person speechlessly, "If Lu Chengkang wants to take action, it won't be against you."

"why?"

"You are stupid and pose no threat."

"I'm quite stupid and have had poor academic performance since childhood." Lu Heng said with a silly smile.

He glanced at his watch and stood up suddenly.

"Come on, brother, I'll treat you to dinner!"

"It's already half past twelve, and I'm starving. I know a restaurant that serves really, really delicious food."
