Wang Mu's father was called Wang Yumin. After a divorce many years ago, he started a new family and now had two daughters.
He could be considered to have a successful career. He had opened an Internet company and bought a property in another nearby city. He could be considered to have settled down there.
Lu Sheng ordered Jiumingtang to investigate Wang Yumin's information. Then, he ordered everyone to search for scaly stones. He stood up and went to the residential area where Wang Yumin lived.
…
…
"Is this the place?"
Lu Sheng closed the car door and looked up at the residential area in front of him.
The words "Love Residential Area" hung on the entrance of the residential area.
The residential area was filled with ten-story old residential buildings.
Most of the residents were uncles and aunties. The walls of the residential area and the outer walls of the buildings had patches of paint peeling off from time to time.
"It looks very old."
Lu Sheng adjusted his clothes.
"You can all go back. Do whatever you want, don't mind me." He ordered the Jiumingtang disciples behind him.
"It's our greatest honor to be able to serve the Hall Master." The disciples cupped their fists and bowed respectfully. Then, they quickly drove away.
Lu Sheng took out his phone and looked at the time.
According to the agreement, the other party should be here by now.
"Over here!" Suddenly, a female voice came from the side.
He followed the voice and saw a long-haired girl in a green t-shirt and white shorts waving at him from the right side of the residential area entrance.
The girl had beautiful features. Her t-shirt was slim, showing off her breasts. Her white belly button and slender white legs were exposed. Under the sunlight, her whiteness was dazzling.
"Brother, over here!" The girl waved at Lu Sheng.
She was Wang Ruojing, the daughter of Lu Sheng's second uncle. At the same time, she was also a relative who knew that Lu Sheng was not a simple person.
Lu Sheng walked over. He was dressed casually today. A black shirt and jeans. Other than his muscular body, he looked no different from Wang Mu in the past.
"This is where Fourth Uncle lives. We even came here for a gathering last time." Wang Ruojing explained softly.
"Brother, how long has it been since you last saw Fourth Uncle?"
"I don't know. It's been many years," Lu Sheng said lightly. In Wang Mu's memory, Wang Yumin's impression had already faded. The only thing she remembered was how he insisted on not having children during the divorce.
"Are we going to go in directly to his house?" Wang Ruojing asked carefully.
"There's no need. I'll just watch from the outside. I just need to know what kind of person he is, "Lu Sheng said calmly.
"Then … let's go to the atrium. Fourth Uncle often went out for a walk. Take your … two younger sisters with you, "Wang Ruojing said cautiously.
"Alright."
Lu Sheng nodded.
The two of them walked into the neighborhood, one in front of the other.
The entire district was filled with elderly people. Aside from the elderly, there were also children.
There was a large garden in the middle of the courtyard, and there was a small pavilion in it for people to rest and shade from the sun.
Wang Ruojing brought Lu Sheng to a small pavilion and sat down.
Neither of them spoke first.
Wang Ruojing had always had an inexplicable sense of mystery and awe for her cousin, Wang Mu.
Since the last time her cousin was taken away by a few burly men, she and her cousin Wang Ziyun hadn't said a word. Later, she was still chatting with her cousin, guessing if Wang Mu was just a cover for the librarian, and was actually a gangster.
Then, Wang Ziyun got into a car accident.
The strange thing was that the compensation was very timely, and the other party was also very proactive in sending her to the hospital.
At first, the driver who caused the accident ran away, but later turned himself in. It was said that he found his conscience and went to the police station to confess.
Everything went so smoothly as if it was on purpose.
Now, she was the only one left who knew anything about Wang Mu's background.
Wang Ruojing sat next to Lu Sheng, feeling a little nervous.
Lu Sheng sat on the stone bench with abnormal calmness, looking at the elderly and children walking around the neighborhood.
"Um … Brother Mumu … Are you still in the library?" Wang Ruojing asked in a low voice.
"Yes, I'm still here." Lu Sheng nodded. "I just organize the books every day. My work is quite leisurely." Now that the core disciples could finish their apprenticeship, the Baijun Castle brothers had achieved great mastery in their martial arts, and Ansha and Red Thorn had reached the first level of the Spiral Nine Lives Technique.
Everything was on track. Lu Sheng simply threw all the chores to the core disciples. He let them divide the work according to their abilities.
He just needed to take charge of everything.
Today, Jiumingtang was already the top civilian force in the entire Anos Province and the surrounding provinces. He didn't need to worry about it anymore.
"That's really leisurely." Wang Ruojing sighed. "Brother, do you have a girlfriend?"
"Not yet." Lu Sheng said lightly, "Managing the library is a very troublesome job. I'm busy enough organizing the books every day. I don't have time to waste on this. A man should focus on his career. "
"You … You're right …" The corner of Wang Ruojing's mouth twitched. She didn't know what to say.
You still know that you're managing the library … Those who didn't know would think that you're protecting the planet …
"What do you do now?" Lu Sheng asked casually.
"I'm a receptionist in a hotel," Wang Ruojing said honestly.
"Is your monthly income enough?"
"It's alright … I've paid the rent, but I can use the rest myself. You know that I'm a girl. Even if I get married in the future, I won't have to take care of the family. It's good enough that I can take care of myself. "Wang Ruojing stuck out her tongue.
"How old are you this year?" Lu Sheng was expressionless.
"Twenty-six … What's wrong?"
"Don't stick out your tongue too much in the future. You're already in your thirties. Even if you act young, people won't think that you're only eighteen," Lu Sheng advised sincerely.
"…"
Wang Ruojing felt the urge to punch Wang Mu to death.
"How much longer do we have to wait?" Lu Sheng looked around.
"It should be almost done … They usually come out for a walk around this time."
Wang Ruojing was speechless. She looked around and soon saw a little girl squatting on the ground in a corner.
"Do you see that?" She pointed at the little girl over there.
Lu Sheng looked over and saw that in the corner of the pavilion, there was a little girl squatting there, counting ants.
The girl looked a little similar to him. She had a ponytail, wore a black dress, white stockings, and red leather shoes.
Other than the fact that her skin was not fair enough, she was quite cute. She had a kind of pure temperament.
"Her name is Wang Anan. She's your half-sister, "Wang Ruojing explained. "Do you want to say hello?"
"Wang Yumin won't want me to interfere in his life. I don't want to influence them either. I'll just take a look, "Lu Sheng said lightly.
"If you don't want to, then why are you here?" Wang Ruojing was surprised.
"I want to do something. I need to observe what kind of person Wang Yumin is," Lu Sheng said calmly.
"Okay …" Although she didn't know what Lu Sheng was going to do, Wang Ruojing patiently waited with him.
She also wanted to know more about this mysterious cousin of hers.
Time slowly passed.
Soon, after Wang Anan played with the ants for a while, a beautiful middle-aged woman wearing a black pearl earring walked over and bent down to talk to her.
"She is Fourth Uncle's third wife, Zhao Xinmei," Wang Ruojing introduced.
"Third?"
"Yes," Wang Ruojing pointed at a place not far away. A white-haired old man just walked out from the corner.
"Look, Fourth Uncle is here."
Lu Sheng shifted his gaze over and immediately recognized the old man. It was the old man on the street whom he had met previously.
He was still wearing a yellow cardigan with a bracelet in his hand. He looked no different from an old man in his seventies or eighties.
It was hard to imagine that he was only in his early sixties.
Lu Sheng quietly watched him.
Wang Yumin seemed to quickly notice this strong man who had been looking at him.
His eyes also quickly turned to this side. As soon as he saw Lu Sheng, his mouth opened wide. Then, without hesitation, he quickly walked toward Lu Sheng.
Lu Sheng slowly stood up.
Wang Ruojing also stood up.
"Fourth Uncle," she called out with some apprehension.
Wang Yumin nodded slightly, but his eyes still didn't leave Lu Sheng.
His wife and daughter followed behind him. The fifteen-year-old girl held her mother's hand tightly, as if she knew what was going to happen. Her cherry lips slightly opened, and she grabbed her mother's hand too hard, her knuckles turning white.
Lu Sheng walked out of the pavilion and met Wang Yumin who was approaching.
When the two were two meters apart, they stopped at the same time.
"You … you are …!?" Wang Yumin seemed a little excited.
"I haven't seen you for a long time, so I came to see you," Lu Sheng said calmly.
Complicated emotions flashed across Wang Yumin's face. There was excitement, joy, guilt, but most of all, he didn't know what to do.
"I … your sister, is also here …" He pulled the girl beside him, "An 'an, come, call him brother. He is your brother! "
Wang An 'an was a little confused and didn't respond for a while.
Lu Sheng looked behind Wang Yumin, at the somewhat nervous beautiful woman, and roughly understood the awkwardness of the situation.
"Forget it, it seems that I came too suddenly. I'll come see you again when I have time, "he replied lightly.
Wang Yumin opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but in the end, he didn't say anything. He just silently watched as Lu Sheng slowly left.
He could feel his wife's gaze behind him.
So even though he felt a lot of guilt and debt towards Wang Mu, he still couldn't say anything to make him stay.
If it was a few years ago, perhaps he would have the courage to say it.
But now the company was in a slump, and the financial ability was insufficient. He also understood Wang Mu's situation, he was just an ordinary librarian, and his salary wasn't high. In the future, he would have to marry a wife, have children, buy a house, and so on.
He … if he spent so much for his son, what would happen to his daughter and wife now?
"Brother!" Wang Ruojing couldn't stand it anymore and quickly chased after Lu Sheng.
This scene was something she could never have imagined. In her impression, Wang Yumin was a very amiable elder who also valued family, but she never thought that he would do such a despicable thing.
His own son was right in front of him, but he didn't even dare to open his mouth to say it.
Wang Ruojing gritted her teeth as she chased, took out her phone, and quickly dialed a number.
