Hearing this, Lu Qianshan gave a faint smile and didn’t answer directly. Instead, he asked, “What about you?”
“I was entrusted by Father-in-law to bring Wang Lanhua some meals, and I added a little extra… seasoning”
“Do you know? After eating the poison she originally prepared for you, she’s already a bit hysterical, completely unhinged…”
Shen Qingqing spoke honestly.
Lu Qianshan suddenly grew interested. “What made you think of doing this all of a sudden?”
Shen Qingqing leaned closer to him and squeezed his palm sharply. “Wasn’t it to vent my anger for you!”
“Using her own methods against her that’s the only way to get real satisfaction.”
After saying this, Shen Qingqing looked at Lu Qianshan and added, “I’ve answered your question, but you haven’t answered mine yet.”
Hearing this, Lu Qianshan’s heart skipped a beat, a flicker of light passing through his eyes.
He took Shen Qingqing’s hand, raised the folder in his other hand, and said, “Let’s go, we’ll talk in the car downstairs.”
Shen Qingqing glanced around at the people passing by and nodded obediently, following Lu Qianshan downstairs.
Inside the car.
Lu Qianshan slowly opened the folder, took out a document, and handed it to Shen Qingqing. He said, “I went to the hospital to re-examine some matters from back then.”
“What?” Shen Qingqing was momentarily stunned.
Lu Qianshan looked at her, speaking softly: “You read the document first.”
Shen Qingqing nodded and carefully began reading.
The paper was slightly yellowed, but the writing was clear enough.
After a moment, Shen Qingqing looked up. “Are you saying Lu Kai isn’t actually of the Lu family bloodline?”
“Shh.” Lu Qianshan put a finger to his lips.
Shen Qingqing immediately closed her mouth, but her mind was racing.
No wonder that after the elder Lu saw what happened with Lu Kai and Shen Baiyun, he removed Lu Kai from the CEO position.
In a typical CEO story, the male lead shouldn’t have to pay any price for such things. At most, Shen Baiyun would be the one suffering.
So it turns out Elder Lu had suspicions about Lu Kai’s bloodline.
But in the original story, Lu Kai had everything go smoothly because Elder Lu had no reason to act against him?
Shen Qingqing suddenly remembered a detail from the original story: Elder Lu had left all his shares to Lu Hongcai before passing away.
She had initially thought it was out of consideration for the younger generation but now she realized the real reason.
Shen Qingqing’s delicate fingers traced the words on the yellowed paper.
“I wonder how Lu Kai will collapse when he finds out the truth,” she murmured.
Lu Qianshan clearly heard her.
“Do you want to expose this?” he asked.
Shen Qingqing looked up at him and suddenly smiled.
“Why rush? Are you eager to take down the person I was previously engaged to? Hmm?”
Lu Qianshan’s expression darkened.
Seeing her guess was correct, a flicker of delight passed through Shen Qingqing’s heart. She then calmly said, “No need to hurry. A bombshell like this is much more fun when revealed at the very end.”
The only question is whether the main characters can handle it.
Hearing this, Lu Qianshan nodded silently and didn’t comment further.
Then he asked, “Where to?”
Hearing his voice, Shen Qingqing’s heart lifted indeed, the man she was strategizing to capture was considerate.
Thinking this, she calmly said:
“To… the Shen family.”
“Weren’t we going to work?”
For a quick transmigration traveler, visiting the Shen family to complete a mission was considered work.
Of course, Shen Qingqing didn’t say that. She pursed her lips and said softly “I was brought from the countryside to the city and haven’t seen my biological parents yet. I ended up marrying you in place of Shen Baiyun.”
“Although they didn’t come to see me, I still want to visit them. After all, they are my elders.”
She put on the full act, her expression turning sorrowful.
A ripple crossed Lu Qianshan’s eyes. Suppressing the ache in his chest, he muttered a reluctant, “Okay.”
Then he started the car.
Although the Shen family was wealthy, they couldn’t compare to the Lu family, so their villa wasn’t as large.
They lived in the Waterfront Villa in Lincheng.
The villa, set by the river and surrounded by hills, offered beautiful scenery.
The car drove along the riverside road and slowly stopped at the entrance of the Shen family villa.
“Qianshan, wait here for a moment. I’ll be out quickly.”
No, no, no, I’m about to stir up trouble inside remember to back me up!
With that thought, Shen Qingqing stepped forward with cold resolve and pressed the doorbell.
She then realized her hands were empty.
Before anyone could open the door, she casually picked a flower from a nearby tree.
Moments later, the door opened. Seeing a well-dressed, poised young woman, the housekeeper immediately suppressed her irritation and asked respectfully, “Miss, may I ask who you are?”
Shen Qingqing said calmly: “I’m Shen Qingqing.”
What? She’s actually Shen Qingqing?
Wasn’t she just a simple girl from the countryside?
This stylish, elegant woman in front of her was indeed Shen Qingqing.
All the housekeeper’s previous assumptions were overturned. After a moment of shock, she said, “Please wait, Young Mistress. I’ll inform ”
“Inform? I’m entering my own house; do I need to be announced?”
Shen Qingqing could tell that someone had prepped the housekeeper and was using this as a chance to humiliate her.
In the original story, the original self had been turned away multiple times when visiting the Shen family, humiliated without apology.
Truly disgusting.
Seeing the housekeeper step aside, Shen Qingqing didn’t make things difficult and walked straight in.
“Aunt Shen, who’s here?”
Shen Baiyun, watching a show with Ye Zhi, turned to see Shen Qingqing and froze.
“Shen Qingqing, why are you here?” Shen Baiyun’s fair, delicate face darkened.
She thought privately: what is this countryside brat doing coming to the Shen family at this moment?
Could it be…?
The thought twisted endlessly in Shen Baiyun’s mind.
She absolutely could not let Shen Qingqing steal her parents’ favor.
Lu Kai currently had almost no money, though he had promised to improve soon and even gave her a black card worth millions.
Still, Shen Baiyun didn’t feel at ease.
She always prepared for two outcomes.
In just a short while, her mind had spun through countless scenarios.
She tapped Ye Zhi, who was engrossed in the show, and said coquettishly: “Mom, look who’s here your eldest daughter.”
“Eldest daughter? She just married Qianshan not long ago. How is she back so soon?”
Though Shen Baiyun’s tone sounded cute, her obvious malice radiated.
Before Ye Zhi could respond, Shen Qingqing strode over and plopped down on the expensive, custom sofa imported from abroad.
“Tsk, this sofa is surprisingly soft!”
