Chapter 780: The Truth
Editor: Henyee Translations
After Liu Yue left, i Shu imdiately called Lu Si and told him about the situation.
Lu Si remained silent for a long ti after hearing her account.
i Shu felt worried. Although they had speculated before that Lu Si’s parents’ death might be related to Su Ling, it was only speculation. Now that their suspicions were confird, Lu Si’s mood was sure to fluctuate.
“Alt Si…” i Shu wanted to say sothing comforting, but for a mont, she didn’t know what to say.
“Mm,” Lu Si responded coldly, his voice devoid of any emotion.
“Are you getting off work soon? Should I co to the company to pick you up?” i Shu’s tone was softer than usual.
This kind of tone was reminiscent of how she used to address Lu Si’s alter ego.
Lu Si sighed softly. His parents’ death was a fact he couldn’t change. What he could do now was uncover the truth and bring the culprit to justice.
Admittedly, he was affected by what i Shu had just said, but he couldn’t allow himself to remain imrsed in grief. It would only worry those around him.
“I’ll be leaving soon. You don’t need to co. I’ll be back shortly, and we can have dinner together,” Lu Si spoke again, his tone returning to normal, devoid of any emotion.
Lu Si had been very busy these past few days and hadn’t co back for dinner. The servants had only prepared i Shu’s portion of food.
i Shu inford the servants that Lu Si would be coming ho for dinner tonight as well.
When Lu Si returned, i Shu was on the phone.
It was Tang i calling, saying she had recovered and wanted to return to work at the company.
i Shu didn’t agree imdiately. Instead, she first asked Jiang He, who confird that Tang i had indeed recovered well.
i Shu knew Tang i was anxious and couldn’t rest properly at ho, so she agreed to let her return to work. However, she could only work half-days for the ti being.
After bargaining for a while, they finally reached an agreent.
If anyone else heard, their jaws would probably drop. They had never seen such a boss and employee relationship before. The employee wanted to go to work, and the boss wanted them to rest at ho. It seed like the roles were reversed.
Although i Shu was on the phone, she had sensed it when Lu Si returned. She instructed Tang i to prioritize her health first before hanging up.
“Alt Si, I think Liu Yue’s conditions are worth considering, but since he’s made such a request, I think we should first find out what he’s done before,” i Shu slowly walked up to Lu Si.
Since yesterday, Lu Si had agreed that i Shu could walk around. However, he still had to make a call in half an hour to tell her to rest more and walk slowly.
On the way back just now, Lu Si had also been thinking all the way. Suddenly knowing the truth was indeed unsettling.
Seeing i Shu’s worried look, he couldn’t help but smile inwardly.
“Let’s eat first. We can discuss it after dinner,” Lu Si walked over and lifted her up.
“Alt?!” i Shu exclaid and grabbed onto his neck.
i Shu was confused. “You’ve been investigating for so many years, and now…”
Lu Si interrupted her with a smile, “There’s no rush. We already have a lead. Let’s eat first. i Feng told that you often get too busy to eat at the company?”
“No, that’s not true. I eat on ti every day,” i Shu said, lowering her eyes.
Lu Si chuckled and said, “It doesn’t matter. I didn’t care before, but from now on, I’ll video call you at al tis to watch you eat.”
i Shu:
i Shu was at a loss for words. “Please don’t. I promise to eat on ti from nowon. Being watched while eating will give indigestion.”
This ti, Lu Si didn’t argue with her. He agreed readily, saying, “Okay, from now on, I’ll co to your company at lunchti to have lunch with you.”
Lu Si had said they would eat first, and he truly focused on eating. He didn’t ntion the matter at all, and every ti i Shu tried to bring it up, he interrupted her.
After dinner, the two of them went straight to the study.
Even though they hadn’t received the recording yet, i Shu still detailed everything she had heard in the recording to Lu Si.
“I want to talk to Liu Yue in person,” Lu Si said after listening to the whole process of his parents being plotted against by Su Ling. He found it sowhat absurd; his mother probably didn’t even know she was being set up by her sister before she died. She probably just thought she was unlucky to encounter a crazed beast.
Others were the sa. When they heard about it, they just thought Lu Si’s parents were unlucky to encounter such a thing.
i Shu nodded. “Okay, I’ll go with you.”
