Chapter 247 More Secrets
Gu Pan and Lu Ruisheng took Lu Ruiming to the apartment they had rented before, and they weren’t worried about him running away, for his mind was set on going to the headquarters, so he was more afraid of being found by Zhang Huishu.
Without any means of communication, hiding and remaining undiscovered was not difficult.
After they settled Lu Ruiming, Gu Pan and Lu Ruisheng went downstairs to meet Lu Jianshe, and all three had the same idea—to kidnap Zhang Huishu and interrogate her directly, since they were soon going to the headquarters and time didn’t allow them to delay.
Gu Pan and Lu Ruisheng didn’t want Lu Jianshe to be involved in this matter, given his military background, but Lu Jianshe insisted, claiming it was his personal issue and he had to participate.
Finally, they came up with a plan—to have Lu Jianshe wait in an unoccupied villa behind them while the two of them tricked Zhang Huishu into coming.
After agreeing on the plan, they first went to the unoccupied villa, unlocked the door, and let Lu Jianshe wait inside. Then Gu Pan and Lu Ruisheng proceeded to Zhang Huishu’s residence.
Just as the two of them reached the door, Zhang Huishu, frantic and anxious, came out. She was on her way to find Lu Jianguo because she had guessed Lu Ruiming’s motive for escaping—he wanted to follow Lu Jianshe to the headquarters. Knowing her son was stubborn and difficult to persuade, she set her sights on Lu Jianguo. She planned to go to Lu Jianguo’s workplace, create a scene, accuse the Lu Family of bullying by taking away their bloodline to leave the mother and take the son.
Given Lu Jianguo’s position, he couldn’t afford such scandal. She absolutely couldn’t let Lu Ruiming leave her; otherwise, she would really be hopeless. How could those men be as reliable as her son?
In truth, Zhang Huishu hadn’t seen her son clearly, or perhaps it was a mother’s bias—she couldn’t believe her son would be ungrateful. If she did see through him, she would realize that this son truly wasn’t as reliable as those men were, but sadly, she didn’t know.
Upon seeing Gu Pan and Lu Ruisheng, Zhang Huishu silently cursed her luck. She didn’t want to get entangled with these two, who were unpredictable and uncontrollable, and who would resort to physical force, so she thought of running.
