When Lu Wanyu saw her, she was first surprised, then she frowned. “It’s you?”
Tang Qianmiao patted the seat next to her and said, “Sit down and we’ll chat.”
With her brows furrowed, Lu Wanyu stuck her hands in her pocket and said with caution, “Just say what you have to.”
Unable to hold back, Black Chicken burst out, “Hey, Sister. It’s out of a kind heart that Boss is helping you. Why are you so rude?”
Lu Wanyu raised an eyebrow and said, “Boss?” She looked at Tang Qianmiao with an expression of disbelief. “Who are you, exactly?”
Tang Qianmiao held a photograph between two fingers and then tossed it towards the girl. “This person. Do you know her?”
Lu Wanyu caught the fluttering print and looked down at it. Another look of surprise crossed her face.
“It appears you do,” Tang Qianmiao concluded.
Following this, she said unhurriedly, “From the age of seven, you were with Professor Xu, helping him with his experiments. After returning home at the age of 15, you suggested to your father about making some changes to the business. Later on, Professor Xu passed away, and your father did not accept your suggestions. From then on, you started hanging out with the scoundrels on Chang An Street. Superficially, it appears that your temperament had changed drastically, however, the truth is that you’re doing it for the convenience of protecting the underground lab in that area.”
Tang Qianmiao paused for a moment and smiled before continuing, “If I’m not wrong, Professor Xu built that lab to avoid trouble. All those years, he was carrying out experiments in secret, relating to that medical project that was force-terminated 18 years ago. Isn’t that right?”
Lu Wanyu’s expression deepened as she looked at the other girl, becoming even warier now.
“What do you want?”
“So you know Yun Huan?” Tang Qianmiao asked faintly.
Lu Wanyu’s hands were clammy. “Yes, so what?”
Tang Qianmiao smiled and said, “I’m her daughter.”
Stunned, Lu Wanyu did not speak for a long time.
Tang Qianmiao shot Black Chicken a look, signaling him to produce a document.
“This is a contract, it’s my sincere invitation to you to join our research team. In exchange, I will help you settle the matter regarding Lu Xinqing. You should know that if Lu Xinqing was to sign a collaboration agreement with Yi Huan, Lu Corporation would soon become a pawn for Yi Huan.”
Pinching the corner of the document, Lu Wanyu asked, “And why should I believe you?”
Tang Qianmiao replied unhurriedly, “You can think about it. After all, it’s tough to be working alone to protect Professor Xu’s lab. And if trouble comes your way, you won’t be able to handle it.”
Having said this, she turned and looked ahead. “Black Chicken, let’s go.”
Black Chicken acknowledged and immediately got back into the car. Then he shut the car door and drove off.
Lu Wanyu tightly pinched the document in her hand. For a long time, she stood on-the-spot.
…
Black Chicken glanced at the time. It was 1.30 pm so he asked, “Boss, back to school?”
“…” There was no answer.
He peered into the rearview mirror and saw that Tang Qianmiao had fallen asleep, leaning against the backseat. He quickly turned down the music and drove on in silence.
It had been three years since he started serving this young lady. From the onset, back he didn’t think very much of her, right up to now, when he was completely submissive, there had been many thoughts and emotions in-between.
Every decision that she had made had been critically thought-through and precise.
Just like this time, she had only made a single approach and asked him to investigate her birth circumstances. From there, she was able to easily stop the agreement signing.
Even the underground lab that Lu Wanyu had worked so hard to guard had been found out by her. From Lu Wanyu’s activities in the last half a year, it had been an easy point of entry for them to gain information on the truth.
Although she was capable, she was human after all
She would also tire.
It would be good if she had someone to help her shoulder some of that load.
However, even having considered it thoroughly, Black Chicken had yet to be able to identify anyone suitable.
