ABRWF Chapter 429.2

Peace Talisman (2)

“Where has my father been lately?”

“Mr. Lu, your father was in southern Myanmar a month ago, and hasn’t left since. That area is a chaotic place; if he’s intentionally hiding, it’ll be very difficult to find him.” A voice inside sounded worried and hesitant.

Lu Qingyan’s voice was cold: “No matter what, we must find him. The police’s attention to the Lu family might be related to my father. If we let this continue, it will cause irreparable damage. We also need to investigate who is behind this. From the Cheng family to the Yang family, the entire capital has been thrown into turmoil.”

The meeting didn’t end until nearly midnight.

Jiang Nanshu went back to her room after eavesdropping.

The Lu family’s crisis was actually related to Lu’s father?

It had long been rumored that Lu’s father had become addicted to gambling in recent years, but he had had no luck and kept losing his entire fortune, even ignoring his father’s scolding.

Just recently, Lu’s father was forcibly summoned back by Old Mr. Lu, and they met briefly before he disappeared without a trace.

Lu Qingyan never cared where his father went off to fool around, as long as he wasn’t dead.

In addition, he was carrying HIV, so people in Beijing who knew him were unwilling to hang out with him.

So he could only go to another circle.

Southern Myanmar…

That place is dangerous.

It is the true source of gray market products.

Noticing Lu Qingyan’s return, Jiang Nanshu quickly pretended to be asleep.

As soon as Lu Qingyan got into bed, he embraced her from behind. Only when she heard his steady breathing behind her did Jiang Nanshu open her eyes again.

Lately, she had been thinking about something: the winds of change in the capital were too strange.

Even the usually honest and law-abiding Yang family had gotten into trouble, as if someone was deliberately manipulating things behind the scenes, trying to destroy them.

The real trigger was the head of the Ke family, who had already been imprisoned, followed by the exposure of the Cheng family, and then the Yang family, who had cooperated with the Cheng family, were not spared either.

Now, the Lu family had been implicated through Lu Qingyan’s father’s philandering.

It seemed the situation was not good.

Jiang Nanshu was lost in thought when a soft pinch was gently placed on her waist. She instinctively flinched, then her back stiffened.

Lu Qingyan’s voice was slightly hoarse: “What are you thinking about? Still not asleep?”

Jiang Nanshu cleared her throat somewhat guiltily: “I had already taken a nap and just woke up.”

Lu Qingyan chuckled softly: “Was it fun eavesdropping at the door just now?”

Jiang Nanshu quickly turned around, meeting Lu Qingyan’s eyes in the dim light. She feigned ignorance: “Eavesdropping? I was sleeping in bed the whole time.”

“Just now, when you were at the study door, because the door wasn’t closed, I saw your shadow flicker, you little liar.”

Lu Qingyan affectionately ruffled Jiang Nanshu’s cheek.

“Then why didn’t you come out and kick me out?” Jiang Nanshu looked at him, puzzled.

So he’d sent her away to sleep all along, and now, knowing she was at the door, he’d let her listen the whole time.

“I was afraid you’d worry so much that you couldn’t sleep, so I thought it would be better for you to know. You said we should trust each other and not hide anything from each other. I can handle these things, so don’t worry.”

Lu Qingyan felt that since Jiang Nanshu wanted to know, there was no need to hide it.

He wouldn’t use the guise of doing what was best for her to isolate her; that would only make her overthink and further distance them.

Whether Jiang Nanshu knew about this or not wouldn’t make a big difference.

He was determined to bring Lu’s father back.

“I’m going to southern Myanmar tomorrow. I’ll take you back to the Jiang family home for a while.”
