Chapter 131 - To the moon and back (1/2)

Lu Aotian and Lu Shaoting looked at each other. She did have a point, if they delayed any further, they would give him time to execute his scheme. But how could Lu Aotian let his woman walk into danger?

Wan Jia knew what he was thinking and said, ”they were my family for years. What's the worst that could happen? At most they could only collude with him to lie to me.”

”Who said they can't do bad things?” Lu Aotian really wanted to know what exactly would happen if she went, but he was afraid that she may run into trouble.

Lu Shaoting spoke up too. ”My brother is right. While they were your family, that was years ago. Right now they believe that they lost their child because of you. Do you think they still like you? Even if it does not involve life and death, it's still suicidal to go there on your own.”

”Who said anything about me going on my own? I'll have to trouble both of you to protect me.

My love, why are you looking at me like that? I'm going for the sake of helping you find out a villain's motives and not just for the adventure.”

Lu Aotian continued scanning her, not at all believing what she just said. It seemed, he had to limit her exposure to crime movies.

...

The trio spent a large part of the morning coming up with the most effective plan.

Thay decided to play along with the other party's game. Wan Jia would pretend that she did not know Yun Jifeng was lying to her and go to the He family home. She would not be alone, however, there would be many bodyguards in hiding in case anything happened.

Lu Aotian would also follow her while in hiding and keep a maximum distance of a hundred metres from her. Only then would he be assured.

As for Lu Shaoting, he would remain in the car and be on the lookout. As they were going to prepare tiny cameras to hover around the compound, Lu Shaoting's role was to inform his brother if anything happened away from his line of vision.

That was how the brothers had always worked. While outsiders often thought that Lu Shaoting was nothing but his brother's sidekick, the two of them actually complimented each other.

”Why didn't anyone mention giving me one of those tiny listening devices?” Wan Jia complained.

”Why do you think I'm following you? I don't want you to get distracted by anything.” Lu Aotian said.

Although Wan Jia was the star of this little 'adventure', Lu Aotian felt it was dangerous to make her have a listening device. If she listened to their conversations and instructions, what would happen if someone noticed she was recieving instructions?

She pouted and looked sad. Lu Aotian patted her head lightly. ”Don't be too sad, it's just because I love you too much that I don't want you to do anything that might cause suspicion.”

Hearing that, she was happy now, so she turned to kiss his lips.

”Ahem,” Lu Shaoting coughed. ”When are we going to do all this?”

”Today.” Lu Aotian answered.

”Today!” Wan Jia could not hide her excitement.

”Mmh. Shaoting and I are alright. Honey, go get changed into something more comfortable.” he told her.
