Chapter 1139 I’ll Give You a Chance (4)

After finishing her work in the morning, Shen Youran went to look for Lin Mo’an. Before she reached the president’s office, she saw Lin Mo’an walking quickly, with his suit jacket tucked around his elbows, and Secretary Jia following behind him.

She asked, “Where are you going?”

Lin Moan stopped in front of her: “Lu Shi’s family has been found.”

He looked anxious. Shen Youran said, “I’ll go with you.”

After driving for more than two hours, we arrived at Lu Shi’s wife’s hometown, a not very wealthy village.

When the car drove into the village, many people looked at this out-of-place luxury car with curiosity.

The road in the village was difficult to drive on and the car couldn’t get in, so the three got out of the car.

Shen Youran looked at the dilapidated earthen brick wall and asked, “Secretary Jia, have you found out where they live?”

Secretary Jia shook his head: “I don’t know.”

Someone happened to pass by, and Lin Mo’an went up to ask about it. Following the direction pointed by that person, the three of them found Lu Shi’s family.

The three of them walked outside, and a woman in her forties came out to pour water.

Lin Mo’an asked: “Excuse me, are you Lu Fanghua?”

The woman nodded. Seeing that they were not from the village, she stared at them blankly: “Who are you…”

Lin Moan said gently: “We know your husband Lu Shi.”

Lu Fanghua invited them into the house and poured them some water.

Lin Mo’an thought for a moment, then said, “We came here today to ask you, who sent you the 200,000 yuan when Lu Shi was imprisoned?”

Lu Fanghua was stunned for a moment: “Why are you asking this?”

Shen Youran sat next to Lin Mo’an. She held a cup of water. The green tea leaves in the cup floated up and down, making her fingertips look white and smooth.

She said tactfully: “There was another hidden story behind the car accident that year.”

After hearing what she said, Lu Fanghua said excitedly: “Does that mean my old Lu won’t have to serve the full ten years in jail?” Shen Youran and Lin Mo’an looked at each other.

“It’s hard to say. You have to cooperate with our investigation first.”

Lu Fanghua said: “The man who sent the money claimed to be Lao Lu’s friend, but I have been married to Lu Shi for so many years and have never met this friend of his.”

“Didn’t you doubt the origin of the money at that time?”

“I had my doubts, but I was in a hurry to use the money, so I didn’t care.”

Lin Mo’an gave Lu Fanghua a brief account of the car accident, telling her that someone bribed Lu Shi to cause the accident and that the victim had become a vegetable, hoping that she could persuade her husband to tell the truth.

Lu Fanghua didn’t believe him and said excitedly: “Impossible, you must have made a mistake, Lao Lu is not that kind of person!”

Shen Youran took a sip of the bitter tea: “How do you explain that money?”

Lu Fanghua was speechless.

In the end, the three of them were kicked out.

Shen Youran looked at the furious Lin Mo’an and said gently, “She just has trouble accepting this reality right now. Maybe she’ll figure it out once she calms down. Come back in a few days.”

On the way back, Lin Mo’an didn’t say a word, and it was obvious that he was in a bad mood.

Shen Youran and Secretary Jia were also quiet and did not disturb him.

Entering the city, Lin Mo’an suddenly said, “Stop the car.”

Secretary Jia stopped the car on the side of the road. Lin Mo’an pushed open the door and got out. He walked over and kicked the green trees on the side of the road hard.

Secretary Jia looked at Shen Youran: “Director Lin, this…”

Shen Youran said calmly: “Don’t worry about it, just wait until he finishes venting.”

Afterwards, Lin Mo’an was going to the bar, and Shen Youran asked Secretary Jia to follow him while she returned to the company.
