Chapter 121 - No, You Did it on Purpose (2/2)
“Second brother, has Grandpa Lu ever urged you to get married or has he ever tried to matchmake you with someone else? I guess he must have done so because as the heir of the Lu family, it must be very important for you to have a child.”
Lu Jingzhi took his cell phone back from Jiang Yuning before placing it back into his own pocket. He then pinched Jiang Yuning’s nose gently before asking her, “What generation do you think we are living in right now, huh?”
“He did arrange for me to be married to Lu Zongye,” Jiang Yuning retorted because she was not convinced.
“Are you being vengeful now?”
Jiang Yuning turned around and looked at Lu Jingzhi with a serious expression on her face. “Second brother, if…if you are ready to get married, you can let me know. I am willing to marry you but we cannot announce it to the public yet.”
After listening to Jiang Yuning’s words, Lu Jingzhi replied, “There is no need to rush into things. Although we have known each other for a very long time, you have not fully understood me yet. Therefore, you have many other options to pick from.”
“I know that you are only saying that because you know that I am trying to make it big in the entertainment industry,” Jiang Yuning said immediately. “I am serious, second brother. If you want to get married now, we can go ahead and register to get a marriage license now. After all, you are already twenty-eight years old. It is the perfect time for you to get married.”
“Had we not agreed to let nature take its own course? Come, let us go into the house now,” Lu Jingzhi replied, ending the topic immediately.
Who would not want to get married?
He had already been thinking about marrying Jiang Yuning and making her his own from the day that he brought her back to his villa. However, he did not want to tie her down when she was still so young.
Anyway, the only thing that they lacked right now was the marriage certificate. Lu Jingzhi had already regarded Jiang Yuning as his wife and decided she was the one that he was going to spend the rest of his life with.
Jiang Yuning stared at Lu Jingzhi as he got out of the car and she walked slowly behind him. She knew that he was once again sacrificing what he wanted because of her.
Lu Jingzhi opened the front door but did not see Jiang Yuning stepping into the house. He thus turned back and said, “Why are you not keeping up with me? Why are you in a daze?”
Jiang Yuning held back the tears that were about to flow out and immediately chased after Lu Jingzhi. “Second brother, you are so demanding!”
…
It was already half past eight at night and eight hours had already passed since Huo Zhendong was detained. Since the police could not find any evidence, they had no choice but to release Huo Zhendong.
“Officer, you have worked hard. If there is nothing else, I will go home now,” Huo Zhendong said as he straightened out his clothes. “I will be going abroad tomorrow. If you need me to assist in any further investigation, do not hesitate to contact my personal assistant. He will pass the message on.”
“Okay,” replied the police officer who had interrogated Huo Zhendong.
Huo Zhendong smiled before he turned around and left the police station with his personal assistant.
“Are you going to let him go just like that?”
“What else can we do? We do not have any evidence to charge him. The only evidence that we have is Fu Yahui’s testimony against him, which is insufficient.” The captain in charge of Fu Yahui’s case could not help but sigh.
“Hold on, Captain Lee. Someone has sent us a bag of items. He says that these are the evidence of Huo Zhendong’s crime.”
Upon hearing that, the police officers were all very excited and they hurriedly brought the parcel into the conference room.
After opening the parcel, the police officers found some photographs, a USB flash drive, a vacuum bag containing some tools, and also other auxiliary materials in the parcel.
In one of the photographs, Huo Zhendong was pictured holding some tools as he entered the parking lot.
When the police officers plugged in the USB flash drive, they could clearly see a video recording of Huo Zhendong sneaking around and acting suspiciously in a parking lot…
