Chapter 1110 Turn Around
Lu Xi couldn't help but think of when Chen Jiani came to see her, there were obviously many scars on her body, which didn't look like injuries from bumps and bruises, but more like being beaten.
But she remembered that Chen Jiani's original family was pretty good, her parents were loving, and her father loved her very much. So who beat her?
Although it was none of her business, Lu Xi remembered it after seeing it. Could it be that she was beaten by a bad man?
"What are you thinking about?" Hao Mengyan's voice reached my ears.
Lu Xi came back to her senses and chuckled, "Why are you here?"
"Come over to see you and share a piece of gossip with you. For you."
Hao Mengyan passed by and brought Lu Xi a cup of milk tea.
Lu Xi is breastfeeding now, and Aunt Liu won't let her drink milk tea, saying that there is a lot of technical work in it, and Aunt Liu will do it if she wants to drink it. But she still took it, "What gossip?"
"Yesterday, my dad almost strangled my grandpa to death."
Hao Mengyan's tone was sarcastic, and there was a hint of sadness in the depths of her eyes.
Lu Xi immediately raised her voice in surprise, "Hao Bohua actually did it himself?"
What surprised her was not that Hao Bohua killed Hao Teng. After all, the people of the Hao family were cold-blooded, and their interests and rights were far above family affection. She did not expect that Hao Bohua would choose to do it himself.
"Well, he probably drank a lot, so he got drunk and started fighting. If the housekeeper hadn't shown up, he would have strangled my grandfather to death."
Lu Xi sighed a little, "It seems that your father is really panicking, otherwise he wouldn't do such a stupid thing."
Hao Mengyan lowered her head and snorted sadly, "Yes, after all, he always thought that the Hao family would belong to him in the future, so he has always acted like a protagonist. Now a grandson suddenly appears to compete with him for the inheritance rights, how can he not panic?"
Lu Xi didn't say anything, her mind was filled with the image of Hao Bohua strangling Hao Teng to death.
I don't know how long it took, she suddenly spoke again, "Sister Yan, I'm going to give you an idea, do you dare to listen?"
Hao Mengyan was absent-mindedly sipping the taro balls in her milk tea. Upon hearing what was said, she looked up and said "hmm", then sucked the whole taro ball in. She choked and coughed violently, and her face turned red from coughing.
Lu Xi quickly patted her on the back and said, "Don't get excited."
"What idea?" This is what Hao Mengyan is most concerned about.
Lu Xi said something in her ear.
Hao Mengyan was a little shocked, "Are you sure?"
"Are you afraid?" Lu Xi asked back. Her once innocent little deer eyes were now tough, sharp and extremely penetrating.
Hao Mengyan hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded, "I'm afraid that in the end it will be in vain."
"The decision is yours. This is a gamble." Lu Xi said with a smile.
Hao Mengyan was worried and was still thinking about this matter when she returned to the company. She wanted to gamble, but she didn't dare to.
When Fu Nanzhou came back, Lu Xi told her husband the gossip.
Seeing her gloating smile, Fu Nanzhou couldn't help but pinch her nose and said, "Look at how you smile."
"I'm happy. It's because the people in the Hao family are so bad. If this news gets out, don't you think it will be like trampling on the Hao family's stocks?" Lu Xi asked with a smile.
"There is no video. After Rong Bingkun's incident, the Hao family was also on guard against us and hired a professional company to clean up the surveillance equipment in the villa."
"I just said that. This is a trick the Hao family likes to use. We are not that disgusting. By the way, have you done anything about Chen Qi's matter?"
Lu Xi turned the topic to business.
Fu Nanzhou shook his head, "Don't worry, he can't get out."
Qin Lie will collect evidence and maybe be able to bring Hao Teng down!
Lu Xi frowned. What did Chen Jiani mean by that?
"By the way, have you checked Rong Xue's information?" Lu Xi asked again.
"Not yet. Perhaps it would be better to ask your sister directly about this matter."
Lu Xi sighed. She always felt that her sister had a good relationship with Rong Jin, and she would be in a dilemma being caught in the middle.
Fu Nanzhou didn't force her, and it would be the same if she asked Fu Xizhou.
Although the two of them are as hostile as water and fire, they are half brothers after all. What happened back then not only concerns Lu Xi and Shen Pingting, but also Wei Wushuang. Fu Xizhou should also want to know the truth.

The next night, Lu Xi called Shen Pingting but she was not at home, but in Rong Jin's car.
"These are all your favorite foods, bought on the road."
Rong Jin smiled gently, and when facing Shen Pingting, he unconsciously released all his tenderness.
"Thank you."
Shen Pingting's tone was indifferent, but she looked very relaxed, not as reserved as when facing others.
Rong Jin was not satisfied, what he wanted was the gentleness that Shen Pingting revealed unconsciously, the kind of shyness she would have when facing the man she liked.
He wanted to date Shen Pingting and get a proposal.
"How much do you know about Rong Xue?" Shen Pingting asked.
Rong Jin frowned, "If I didn't tell you about my mother, you wouldn't come to me?"
Shen Pingting remained silent, which was tantamount to her consent.
Rong Jin couldn't wait any longer, "Pingting, I want a result."
"No result." Shen Pingting answered simply.
Rong Jin was stunned. He didn't expect her to do that without hesitation.
"Why? Don't you want to get rid of Ji Liangchuan's entanglement? That man is definitely not easy to deal with."
Shen Pingting turned to the window and said, "It's not fair to you."
"I do not care."
Rong Jin freed one hand to hold her hand, and held the steering wheel with one hand, "Pingting, I don't care whether you use me or not, or whether you like me or not, I just want to marry you, marry you, and love and pamper you.
"I never thought about this before, but now we are free and we can live a normal life."
"Rong Jin, I don't want to get married." Shen Pingting frowned and pulled her hand back.
creak.
Rong Jin suddenly stopped the car, turned around and looked at Shen Pingting seriously, "Pingting, marrying me will not change anything except that you will have a legal husband. I will not change your life, interfere with your freedom, or force you to do anything you don't want to do. I can even accept you not letting me hug you, not letting me kiss you, and not fulfilling my husband and wife obligations. I just want to be with you."
Rong Jin's words were quite sincere. It's not that Shen Pingting was unmoved, but she really had no expectations for marriage and didn't want to put herself in shackles.
The two people stopped here, and the car behind them also stopped.
Xiaochuan looked down at his phone, which showed Shen Pingting's location sharing.
Dad said he wanted to know Mommy's location, but she wouldn't tell him, so he could only act cute and act coquettishly to get Mommy to send him her location.
In order to prevent his mother from finding out, he even turned off his location sharing.
"Dad, why doesn't Mommy leave? Ah, Uncle Hua said that if the car suddenly stops, it must be doing something bad, but Uncle Hua didn't say what bad thing it would do, just that men would bully women. Let's go and help Mommy quickly."
The corner of Ji Liangchuan's mouth twitched. He absolutely couldn't let this kid be with Hua Jingli anymore. What a mess he was teaching them.
But why did he stop? There was a truck blocking the way ahead, so he couldn't see the car.
Click.
A thunderclap suddenly sounded, Xiaochuan shuddered, and quickly climbed onto Ji Liangchuan's legs, "Dad, I'm scared."
"Exit."
Ji Liangchuan chuckled, hugged the little guy tightly in his arms, and patted his son's back gently with his big hands.
"Dad, the weather forecast says there will be a heavy rainstorm today, so we will be okay, right?" Xiaochuan is not afraid of anything except thunderstorms.
There was a rumble of thunder, accompanied by lightning, and heavy rain suddenly poured down, hitting the car with a crackling sound.
Xiaochuan became more nervous and screamed, "Dad, hold me tight!"
It was night time and it was raining so hard that it was too dangerous to travel. The driver looked at Ji Liangchuan through the rearview mirror and said, "Mr. Ji, should we turn around? It's raining so hard."
Ji Liangchuan also frowned. If it was just him, it would be fine, but Xiaochuan was in the car, and if something happened, he would regret it for the rest of his life.
"Turn around."
