Sorry, it's a different price to be a stand-in

The head office notified the directors of a video conference, and Lu Yunqi drove to the company.

The air conditioner was not turned on in the car, the windows were all open, and cold wind gusts poured into the car.

The phone was thrown on the co-pilot, and the recording of his conversation with Lin Zhinan was playing in a loop.

When he heard a certain passage, Lu Yun frowned and suddenly thought of something.

Lu Yunqi lowered his eyebrows, stared at the road ahead, unconsciously accelerated the accelerator, and the speed of the car soared.

The electronic navigation in the car sent a warning, which made his ears buzz.

The violent braking sound tore through the night, the warning sound disappeared, and Lu Yunqi slammed his fist on the steering wheel.

He had discovered a long time ago that his uncle's feelings for his father were not right, but he lied to himself that it was just pure family affection.

Lu Yunqi deliberately ignored many details, such as his uncle rushing back from abroad to deal with the matter immediately after his father's accident, such as his ability to accurately grasp the information to take him away, such as when his uncle talked about Lu Mingcheng with admiration and admiration between the lines, such as his urging The excited expression on his and Lin Zhinan's divorce.

In the end, what echoed in Lu Yunqi's ears was the conversation he vaguely heard when he was unconscious six years ago.

"... Separate them, I won't allow them to be buried together..."

"But……"

"What's the matter?!"

"That……"

"... Lin Wei can deal with it casually, this is not something I need to worry about..."

Lu Yunqi's chest was heaving, he was short of breath, and there was cold sweat on his forehead—he thought that what Nie Wenchang said "don't allow them to be buried together" was because Nie Wenchang had resentment towards his father because of his mother's affairs. Wei handles it casually", asking Lin Wei to help investigate the case of his father's death in China.

But in the end, the person he trusted turned out to be the person who betrayed him the most.

The anger that had not been vented for a long time made him unable to control his reason anymore.

He took out his mobile phone and called Nie Wenchang.

The answer over there was very fast, as if they had been waiting for his interrogation.

"Yunqi? What's the matter?" Nie Wenchang's voice was slow and gentle, but it made Lu Yunqi shudder. Hearing that Lu Yunqi was silent, Nie Wenchang smiled and motioned for his assistant to take away the document in front of him, "Do you miss uncle? Don't worry, right away A meeting is about to happen, and I miss you very much, too."

Saying ordinary greetings to Lu Yunqi in the past sounds extremely disgusting now.

"Nie Wenchang."

Lu Yunqi called his uncle by his full name for the first time.

Nie Wenchang was startled, then put on a doting smile on his face, and said in a more serious tone, "Yun Qi, I never taught you to be disrespectful."

Lu Yunqi laughed angrily at the phrase "no respect for the eyes", "Heh... no respect for the eyes."

Nie Wenchang realized that something was wrong, got up from his seat, gestured to the people in the meeting room, and came to the corridor.

Nie Wenchang took a deep breath, "Yunqi, what exactly are you trying to say?"

"My mother died, does it have anything to do with you?"

Lu Yunqi's mother died of amniotic fluid embolism during childbirth.

Amniotic fluid embolism during childbirth is very difficult to rescue, but when Nie Shaowei gave birth, Lu Mingcheng was on a business trip, and the surgeon Nie Wenchang called for that day, so Lu Yunqi had to doubt it.

Nie Wenchang swayed, and a trace of panic flashed in his eyes.

"It doesn't matter," Nie Wenchang quickly denied, "What happened to your mother was an accident, and I didn't know about it."

Lu Yunqi laughed and continued to ask: "Well, how do you explain my father's death?"

Nie Wenchang closed his eyes hard, "I don't know, I don't know what he is...why are you asking this all of a sudden? Did you hear someone say something?"

Once a seed of doubt is planted, it is difficult to uproot it.

Nie Wenchang's evasive attitude caused the wildfire in Lu Yunqi's heart to spread wildly along the vines. He gritted his molars and asked the third question: "Is the divorce between Lin Zhinan and I related to you?"

Nie Wenchang clenched the hem of his straight suit tightly, his eyes darkened, and he was silent for a long time.

In this short half minute, Lu Yunqi almost sorted out all the truth.

"Uncle." Lu Yunqi's voice was extremely tired, his shoulders slowly relaxed, and his heart was as desolate as a grassland wildfire after being extinguished.

"...This is the result you want, isn't it?"

After Lu Yunqi finished speaking, he hung up the phone and looked at the white snow in the distance. The white mist that he exhaled heavily obscured his vision.

Lu Yunqi entered the conference room on time, handed the coat to the special assistant, briefly flipped through the documents in front of him, raised his head, and met the eyes of Nie Wenchang who was in a suit and leather shoes on the big screen.

Lu Yunqi quickly averted his gaze.

Other directors of the company also attended the meeting. Lu Yunqi did not look at Nie Wenchang the whole time, but concentrated on listening to the proposals of other directors, trying to numb his emotions with work.

After the meeting ended, Lu Yunqi sat in the conference room for a long time, and finally drove to SARA alone.

Lin Zhinan parked the car outside the community, looked in the rearview mirror, and turned his head to the girls in the back row, "Get out of the car, your family is waiting for you."

The short-haired girl was still reluctant, stubbornly refusing to say goodbye.

The long-haired girl thanked Lin Zhinan, and gently shook the short-haired girl's arm.

Lin Zhinan knew that he had no position to reprimand the two brave girls. All he could do was send the two to their families safely, so he contacted their parents.

"I can adopt the cat you saved, and you can also leave my contact information and address, and come to see it at any time, so you can rest assured." Lin Zhinan turned back and persuaded in a slow voice.

The short-haired girl looked up at Lin Zhinan when she heard the words, and felt that his sincere attitude did not look like he was joking, so she nodded hesitantly.

"Then I'll take you there." Lin Zhinan smiled, got out of the car, and opened the rear door for the two girls.

The girls stood together holding hands tightly, their eyes were red, and they were too timid to look at Lin Zhinan.

Lin Zhinan was about to say something more, but shouts came from behind him.

"Mr. Lin!" A girl with curly hair ran towards Lin Zhinan while beckoning.

The girl stood still in front of Lin Zhinan with a smile on her face.

Lin Zhinan quietly took a small step on his hind legs, and after a little thought, he asked tentatively, "Are you...Xiaomi?"

The curly-haired girl giggled, "Mr. Lin, we meet again!" Then she pulled the short-haired girl, "This is my sister."

Lin Zhinan nodded, "As beautiful as you."

Xiaomi scratched her head embarrassingly, "My sister has caused you trouble...I'm really sorry, I can't control her very much..."

Then another group of people waiting on the side of the road came over and pulled the long-haired girl over. The middle-aged woman reprimanded her.

The short-haired girl wanted to rush over to protect her lover, but was held back by Xiaomi.

"Why are you joining in the fun?" Xiaomi glared at her and said angrily.

"Heh, if your daughter hadn't seduced my child, our Xuanxuan would have run out in the middle of the night?" The middle-aged woman turned blue with anger when she saw the short-haired girl.

Lu Yunqi had no choice but to mediate, telling the whole story of the matter, and of course the relationship between the two girls was automatically deleted.

Hearing that it was to save the cat, Xiaomi elbowed his sister, telling her not to meddle in other people's business next time.

The middle-aged woman didn't continue to quarrel, and after thanking Lin Zhinan, the whole family left in a mighty manner.

"Mr. Lin is going to have a cup of tea?" Xiaomi pointed to the building not far away, "I live there."

Lin Zhinan shook his head, "It's getting late, go back and rest."

"But I want to thank you..."

Thinking of the girl's emotional ups and downs tonight, she must be under a lot of pressure, Lin Zhinan rejected Xiaomi's invitation again, and said in a tougher tone, "It's really unnecessary, she has gone through these things tonight, and now she needs to take a hot bath Then have a good sleep, Xiaomi, take care of your sister."

After hearing what he said, Xiaomi stopped insisting.

When Lin Zhinan got into the car, Xiaomi said goodbye to him, but before the window could be raised, Lin Zhinan suddenly heard Xiaomi asking him if he had seen Bai Hao recently.

Lin Zhinan felt a sharp pain in his heart, he didn't know how to tell Xiaomi about Bai Hao's death.

But what Xiaomi said next made Lin Zhinan's breathing tremble.

"Bai Hao, I had dinner with him last week, but he didn't see me this week, it's so strange!"
