Mr. Lu, don't be arrogant.

Chapter 180 I was planted by your father

Mu Wanying ended the topic in a second.

The man holding her suddenly fell silent.

He pursed his lips tightly and didn't say another word, as if he had witnessed some devastating secret that he couldn't even bring himself to mention.

Every time this matter was mentioned, he seemed to be broken, suddenly silent, pretending to be dead, and refusing to say a word.

Mu Wanying couldn't help but feel a little angry.

She pulled her little hand out of the man's hot chest, turned over with her back to the man, stopped asking him questions, closed her eyes and went to sleep.

The man knew she was angry. His big hands slid down her waist to her lower abdomen. His hot chest pressed against her slightly cold back, and he whispered in her ear, "Wanying!"

"Lu Linfeng, the three months will be up soon!"

Mu Wanying didn't say a word, just reminded the man like this, then took his big hand away from her waist, wrapped herself in the quilt and continued to sleep.

Lu Linfeng didn't say anything else, but his big hands were dishonest and continued to slide towards her waist.

There weren't many firecrackers in Jiangcheng on New Year's Eve, but there were a few from time to time, which disturbed Mu Wanying's sleep.

I have dark circles under my eyes when I wake up in the morning.

Lu Linfeng felt quite distressed, so he reached out to rub her skin and wanted to pull her to sleep for a while longer, but he heard Sister Zhang knocking on the door.

"Wanying, Lin Feng, are you...are you...up? Is it convenient...is it convenient to go in?"

Sister Zhang asked cautiously outside the house, still seeming to be frightened and not daring to speak loudly.

Mu Wanying responded softly, "Come in, the door is not locked."

After he finished speaking, he and Lu Linfeng both put on their clothes and climbed up. Before they could lift the quilt and get up, they saw Sister Zhang pushing the door open and the two of them had no choice but to sit on the bed.

"Sister Zhang, is there something wrong?"

Mu Wanying asked calmly, still no emotion could be heard in her voice.

She pointed to the small stool next to her and said, "Sit down and talk if you have anything to say."

"Oh, thank you!" Sister Zhang clenched her hands, feeling very uneasy. She didn't sit down immediately, but looked at Mu Wanying and then turned to look at Lu Linfeng. "Wanying, Linfeng, I came here to explain what happened last night. I didn't rummage through grandma's room last night to steal anything. I, I..."

"Sit down and talk. There's no rush."

Mu Wan greeted her warmly and pointed to the stool next to Sister Zhang again.

Sister Zhang finally sat down with peace of mind, but she was still uneasy. After taking a few deep breaths, she finally mustered the courage to speak again, "Wanying, Lin Feng, I'm not a thief. I've lived an honest and clean life. I've never stolen a single stitch from anyone, let alone a single stitch from my employer. I, I, I was actually searching in grandma's room yesterday because I was looking for something."

"Looking for something?" Mu Wanying repeated, then asked, "What kind of thing?"

"I can't say exactly what it is. It could be an account book, a bill, or a bank card or something..." Sister Zhang shook her head and sighed, "Wanying, I really don't know. To tell you the truth, I... I... I... was actually planted here by your father. He said the old lady had something in her hand, and asked me to take good care of her and help him find it."

"My dad? Jiang Shangru?"

Mu Wanying was extremely surprised, but after a moment of shock, she felt that it was perfectly reasonable.

Sister Zhang nodded. "Yes, it was Mr. Jiang. He actually paid me a separate salary, every three months, all in cash. It wasn't for taking the old lady's things, but just to take good care of her. Mr. Jiang paid me five times your monthly salary."

"Five times? That means..."

Mu Wanying didn't say anything.

But he was so shocked that he couldn't speak.

It can be seen that Jiang Shangru has invested a lot of money.

Sister Zhang nodded again and stood up from the stool.

She lowered her head and responded to Mu Wanying, "Wanying, I've already told you the truth. Don't sue me or drive me away. I want to continue taking care of the old lady and Wanxin here."

"No, don't worry."

Mu Wanying rubbed her forehead and stopped asking questions. Instead, she kept chasing Sister Zhang to ask about the thing Jiang Shangru wanted. "Sister Zhang, can you tell me what exactly Jiang Shangru wants? What did he, what did he tell you?"

"Mr. Jiang said he was your biological father, but he was a bad person many years ago and made you angry, so you no longer want to acknowledge him. But he really wants to recognize you as his daughter. He really wants to hear you call him dad, so he hopes I can help him find some evidence around the old lady. Probably, probably related to the remittances from the years between your birth and your graduation from college."

Sister Zhang was trembling with fear every time she spoke.

After saying a word and looking at Mu Wanying's expression, he didn't dare to breathe.

Mu Wanying asked in confusion, "Remittance?"

"Yes!"

"What money?"

"You don't know?"

"do not know."

Mu Wanying shook her head.

Sister Zhang's face had turned pale. She clenched her hands and said bravely, "I don't know the details, but Mr. Jiang said that from the time you were born until you graduated from university, he sent a considerable sum of money to your adoptive mother every year to support your studies and life. This continued even after your adoptive mother committed suicide. But..."

Sister Zhang's voice became smaller and smaller.

He looked at Mu Wanying's face more carefully.

Seeing that Mu Wanying's expression was becoming more and more solemn, Sister Zhang slowly lowered her voice and stopped talking.

Finally, Lu Linfeng asked, "But Wanying seems to have never known about this and mistakenly believes that Uncle Jiang has never cared about her. So Uncle Jiang hopes to find this evidence to prove that he has never forgotten this daughter and has always cared about her and taken care of her, right?"

"Yes."

Sister Zhang nodded.

Mu Wanying's expression became even more serious.

Lu Linfeng, who was beside her, had already extended his hand to her shoulder and sneered disdainfully, "I really don't know what to say to him! It's such a simple matter, but he has to make it so complicated!

Since you care about Wanying, why not just express it directly? Why do you have to do this and that? This is because our Wanying is smart and kind, and is willing to think about everything. If it were someone with a less intelligent mind, he would cry and blame God!

Lu Linfeng's words had hidden meaning.

How could Mu Wanying not hear it?

Hidden under the quilt, she gently pinched Lu Linfeng's thigh and said to Sister Zhang, "I see, Sister Zhang, thank you for telling me this. I'm hungry, could you please make something to eat? And that chicken soup I mentioned last night, could you please make a portion for Grandma? I'll take it to the hospital later."

"Okay, take your time getting up, I'll do it right away!"

Sister Zhang bowed to the two of them, retreated carefully, and considerately closed the door gently for the young couple.

However, as the door blocked the view from outside, Mu Wanying's eyes became wet.

She turned around and bit Lu Linfeng directly on the shoulder.
