Who knows, my family members, the host is forced to love again

Chapter 157 The Gentle Man of the Romantic Young Master 13

Lu Huaiyuan didn't say anything more, but changed the subject.

"You called me over this time, but what do you want to say?"

Yao Shuyu nodded, but didn't keep anyone on suspense. Instead, she spoke directly, "I heard that the Meng family recently teamed up with the Jiang family and are planning to deal with your eldest brother."

"It's urgent. As soon as I got the news, I wanted to inform you immediately."

Lu Huaiyuan frowned slightly: "Is this news true?"

Yao Shuyu explained, "The last time Young Master Meng was meeting guests, he asked me to go over and help out. I vaguely heard them mention it during that time, but the specific plans are still unclear."

As the top star of Lost, the event she was invited to attend would certainly not be a simple dinner party.

After all, if anyone could invite her out, her reputation would be worthless.

So Young Master Meng was very happy to invite her to come forward.

He drank two more glasses of wine during this period and started to say whatever he wanted.

Although the people around Young Master Meng stopped him from talking nonsense in time, she still listened to what he said.

As for the specific plan, the other party did not say it, but she could probably guess it.

Thinking of this, Yao Shuyu spoke again: "But from what they said, it seems that they want to bribe the people around your eldest brother to frame him."

As she spoke, she couldn't help but sigh: "In today's world, the Chamber of Commerce is already in chaos, with good and bad people mixed together. It's really better to be careful."

"After all, if someone adds some strictly prohibited items to the goods, or slips some evidence of treason to your brother, then not only your brother, but the entire Lu family will be implicated."

Lu Huaiyuan nodded when he heard this, and he agreed with her opinion very much.

"What are you going to do about this?" Yao Shuyu asked.

Lu Huaiyuan lowered his eyes slightly: "This is not a trivial matter. I still need to find a chance to reveal the news to my eldest brother."

"For now, let's start by investigating the people around him. Even if we can't find anything in the end, we'll be on guard and won't be easily exploited."

In fact, what he didn't say was that this matter might not just be a problem of the Meng and Jiang families targeting Lu Shixiao.

After all, he remembered that the Meng family was deeply involved with a certain faction, and the two sides even had a marriage relationship.

In these war-torn times, supplies and money are essential.

Pingzhou Chamber of Commerce is such a big piece of fat meat, I guess these people have been thinking about it for a long time!

A sneer appeared on Lu Huaiyuan's lips, and a coldness flashed in his eyes.

He looked up at the person in front of him, reached out to pour a cup of tea, stood up and handed it to the other person: "This news is very important to me and the Lu family. Thank you for your reminder."

"I will remember this favor on behalf of the Lu family. If there is anything in the future, as long as you ask, as long as it does not violate morality or conscience, the Lu family will oblige you."

Yao Shuyu: "Given our relationship, it's too polite to ask for thanks. Besides, wasn't this already agreed upon? What's there to thank me for?"

Lu Huaiyuan smiled and did not refute her.

In fact, Yao Shuyu is Lost's top star on the surface, but secretly she is his informant, helping him to gather all kinds of information.

'Lu Huaiyuan' is not some playboy, but actually belongs to a certain faction.

The so-called unrestrained and unruly behavior is nothing but a disguise.

The two were partners before, and are now friends.

'Lu Huaiyuan' helped her deal with the man who harmed their family, and she helped him to gather information several times.

After the transaction was completed, Yao Shuyu agreed with Lu Huaiyuan's ideas and what he did, so she took the initiative to take on the task of gathering information.

Since then, the two have become friends who can rely on each other.

Yao Shuyu's eyes turned slightly. "However, since you are so 'sincere', then I won't be polite with you. I will drink this cup of tea."

As she spoke, she reached out to take the teacup in front of her, then smiled and said, "I asked you to sit so far away, it's not convenient for you to pour me a cup of tea now!"

"Oh, I don't think so." Lu Huaiyuan shrugged and sat back in his original position.

Yao Shuyu didn't care about his attitude. Instead, she took the teacup in her hand and played with it for a while. Then she raised her head and took a sip of tea, looking very relaxed.

"In this world, everyone is busy saving their lives. Who knows whether the person next to you is a human or a 'ghost'?" She looked at the teacup held between her fingertips, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

Lu Huaiyuan fiddled with the teacups in front of him and said casually, "Whether it's a human or a ghost, as long as you can control it well, it can become a knife in your hand."

Yao Shuyu was stunned, but the smile on her face was a little more sincere: "The knife may be a good knife, but it would be bad if it hurts me."

Lu Huaiyuan said nonchalantly, "It's just something you throw away after use. Besides, the knife won't touch your body, so how can it hurt you?"

Yao Shuyu's eyes turned slightly, and she nodded in agreement.

She raised her glass to Lu Huaiyuan and said, "Then I'll wait to hear good news from Master Lu."

"must."

Lu Huaiyuan raised his eyes, and the two of them couldn't help but smile at each other.

-----------------

After finishing the conversation, Lu Huaiyuan did not stay for long but got up and left.

It wasn't too late, so he wasn't in a hurry to go home.

Although the nights in Pingzhou are not as lively as those in later generations, they are still quite lively.

Rickshaw drivers hurried past on the road, pulling empty rickshaws or carrying passengers.

There were vendors on both sides of the road shouting their wares, and from time to time you could hear the sounds of bargaining.

People coming and going, either in groups of three or five, or alone, strolling along the street seem quite leisurely.

.........

Different from the prosperity and luxury in the dance hall, this is a kind of fireworks atmosphere that is closer to ordinary life.

It is also a rare peace and tranquility in this noisy and chaotic world.

Lu Huaiyuan was walking on the street and didn't feel it was noisy.

There were all kinds of food on the roadside stalls, and he enjoyed eating while walking around.

At the end of his walk, he felt a little full, so he took a leisurely walk on the road.

It is autumn now, and the night wind is a little cool, but it is quite comfortable.

Xiao Qi saw Lu Huaiyuan eating all the way, and then he just started taking a walk, but he walked further and further away, and finally walked into a small alley.

[Sir, what are you going to do?]

Xiao Qi tilted his head, somewhat confused.

Lu Huaiyuan raised his eyebrows, a smile appeared in his eyes, and said.

【fishing!】

Xiao Qi: [……]

Could it be that his master is lying to it?

It’s pitch dark here, what kind of fish can I catch?

Are you just groping around?

Perhaps sensing its speechlessness, the smile in Lu Huaiyuan's eyes deepened.

But before he could say anything, Xiao Qi's exclamation rang in his mind.

[Sir, be careful!]

Lu Huaiyuan was stunned, and suddenly a hand stretched out from behind him and covered his mouth and nose.

The familiar smell of the handkerchief made him feel a little confused.

Lu Huaiyuan did not resist, but followed his body's instinct and fell down.

The person behind him reached out to catch his falling body and held him in his arms.

In the dim moonlight, you can still see the raised corners of the other person's mouth.
