Chapter 1179 This May Be Just a Smokescreen

Lu Xi's whole body froze, and a tragic scene suddenly appeared in her mind.

The photo just now seemed to have been completely engraved in her mind, lingering and clear.

If her mother saw it, she would be devastated, so she pretended to shake her head in confusion, "I don't know, Wei Zheng never said that."

Wei Yutong lowered her eyelids. "Your grandfather didn't allow me to attend your uncle's funeral, so I didn't even get to see your uncle for the last time."

Lu Xi felt a suffocating pain in her heart, and it was fortunate that Wei Zheng did not let her mother see it, otherwise... perhaps her mother would have completely collapsed by then.

The surroundings suddenly became quiet and no one spoke.

Lu Xi carefully went over every word her mother had just said in her mind twice, remembering it firmly, and then she held her mother's hand, "Mom, why are you suddenly telling me this?"

Wei Yutong smiled sadly, "I just want to tell you, don't always fight with your grandpa. Even though he doesn't love me, he gave birth to me and raised me after all. His grace is greater than heaven, and he has a reason to hate me."

Hearing this, Lu Xi suddenly felt furious for no reason. She stood up suddenly and glared at her own mother angrily, "Wake up! What do you mean I hate you for a reason? Is it your fault in this matter? Do you want to be kidnapped? In other words, you were with your uncle at the time. What if it was your aunt? Your uncle died because of saving your aunt. Would Wei Zheng hate your aunt so much?"

This one sentence immediately choked Wei Yutong to the point of being speechless.

Lu Xi sneered, "You can't answer, right? You know it yourself. It's different if you change someone. This is the difference between you and your aunt. Mom, I know you care about family affection, but Wei Zheng doesn't care about you, so why should you care about him?"

Wei Yutong tried to pull the corners of her mouth, "I know, I don't care about him, I just hope you won't confront him. After all, Fu Heng is your aunt's husband now, and the relationship between our two families is complicated. I'm afraid that you and Nanzhou will be caught in the middle and it will be difficult."

"Don't be afraid. We know the difference very well. We would be in a dilemma only if we care about someone. Why should we make things difficult for an unimportant person?" Lu Xi retorted stubbornly.

Wei Yutong wanted to say something else, but Shen Congrong put his arm around her shoulders and said, "Okay, Tongtong, the child has already said so, so don't embarrass her anymore. Let's go see our little grandson. Don't talk about my parents, I miss Jiabao a lot every day I don't see him."

Speaking of her granddaughter, Wei Yutong's face became more gentle, as if she had temporarily forgotten the pain just now, and nodded and agreed: "Okay."

The two went upstairs to see Jiabao together, and Lu Xi reviewed the news with Shen Pingting. The sisters thought of two suspicious points at the same time.

"That master is the key." Shen Pingting was the first to raise the issue.

Lu Xi nodded, "Rong Bin, first it was Rong Bin, then Rong Binkun, both father and son are plotting against us, now the Rong family is more than just a suspect, from what happened with my uncle, it is certain that the Rong family is definitely the mastermind behind this.

"I don't believe anyone can really predict a bloody disaster. And you heard what mom said just now. The van was originally used to kidnap her. Logically, the target should be mom. Even if uncle tried his best to save mom, the criminals would only take uncle into the car or kill him on the spot. How could they abandon the original target?

"And mom said that it was her uncle who brought her to the back mountain. This is very strange. If they wanted to relax, they should have found a lively place, right? If you said that they usually go to the mountain to relax, I can understand it, but who would go to the mountain in the heavy rain? Aren't they afraid of something happening?"

This is too deliberate.

"Are you saying there's something wrong with Wei Qian?" Shen Pingting asked.

Lu Xi fell into deep thought, and after a long while, she shook her head blankly, "I don't know either, after all, I don't know this person, but I just feel it's very strange."

She didn't understand, but deep down Lu Xi was willing to believe that Wei Qian must have had his own purpose at that time, and he didn't want to hurt her mother. The reason was that Wei Qian died very tragically.

Of course, this might just be a smoke screen, just like what happened to Wei Wushuang back then, but that would be too scary.

"Sister, do you think there is a possibility..."

Lu Xi suddenly paused, because he himself was not sure whether this speculation was reasonable or not.

Shen Pingting hummed and looked at her sister steadily, waiting for her to continue.

Lu Xi said, "I think the original target might be my uncle, and my mother was just a cover. They just wanted to make it look like this was caused by my mother, so that Rong Bin's prophecy would come true. In this way, Wei Zheng would believe Rong Bin's words without a doubt."

"Then what? What is Rong Bin's purpose? It can't be just to make Wei Zheng hate our mother, right?" This was something Shen Pingting couldn't understand.

Lu Xi couldn't answer because this reasoning was indeed untenable.

At present, we can only be sure that Rong Bin was behind all the things that happened back then, but what was the motive behind all this?

What kind of deep hatred could make the Rong family so deliberate in dealing with everyone in the Wei family?

Moreover, whether it was Tan Xiangyun, Wei Wushuang, or her mother, they all had their own miseries, but at least they were still alive. However, Wei Qian was dead, and was tortured to death.

Lu Ximing knew that his uncle Wei Qian might be full of doubts and might be just like Wei Wushuang at the beginning, but deep down he was resisting thinking that way. Why was that?

Moreover, if Rong Bin's purpose was to deal with Wei Qian, why didn't he do it when Wei Qian was a child? Why did he have to wait until Wei Qian grew up before taking his life in such a cruel way?

The two sisters fell silent. The complicated clues in their minds gave them a headache.

Fu Xizhou, on the other hand, looked at Lu Xi through the large French window, unable to take his eyes off her for a long time.

Zhao Xiaodao came up to him at some point, followed his line of sight, and immediately puffed up his cheeks in displeasure, "You're peeking at her again! Do you like that girl so much?!"

Fu Xizhou's eyebrows turned cold, and he looked at the girl next to him sternly, "It has nothing to do with you!"

"What do you mean it has nothing to do with me? Don't you know that I'm pursuing you?" There was no anger on Zhao Xiaodao's face, but a sweet smile instead.

Fu Xizhou didn't like this girl, so he walked out with his long, straight legs.

Zhao Xiaodao followed behind, secretly complaining in his heart, this man is so cold and heartless! She helped a lot, okay? If she hadn't been there, how could he have gotten that photo?

Ungrateful man!

"Hey, wait for me."

Zhao Xiaodao chased after him quickly, his speed was astonishingly fast.

Fu Xizhou's eyes flashed, and he immediately took a deep breath, then walked briskly.

Zhao Xiaodao laughed heartily, "Hahaha, you want to compete with me in speed? Let me tell you, even Ge Dali is not my opponent, let alone you. Xiaoxi, don't leave, I can help you investigate Wei Qian."

Fu Xizhou suddenly stopped.
