It could be seen that the old lady was a chatterbox. After telling Lu Benlai everything he knew, she even told him something bizarre, "Do you know? That girl is so pretty. She should be around twenty-six or twenty-seven years old now, right? Maybe even older … Logically speaking, when she's at the age of marriage, there should be quite a lot of people going to their house to introduce her to a husband. But I don't know why, but her mother directly rejected them. She said that their daughter doesn't want to get married. She even said that as long as their daughter is happy, it's fine. She doesn't need to get married. Are you stupid? Which woman doesn't want to get married …? "
The more Lu Benlai listened, the more he felt that something was amiss.
When he asked the old lady again, the old lady shook her head and said she didn't know. She didn't know anything else.
Lu Benlai could tell that the old lady wasn't trying to hide anything from him, so he asked where Leng Nuan's family had moved from. The old lady wasn't too sure, but judging from her accent, it seemed like they were from S City.
Seeing that he was unable to get any more information out of her, Lu Benlai thanked the old lady before returning to the hotel.
After which, he had his secretary continue to look into the matter. Due to the long period of time that had passed, it took a lot of effort before he managed to find Leng Nuan's hometown.
The old madam was right. Leng Nuan was indeed from S City, but it was just a town under S City.
Lu Benlai felt that the answers he was looking for should be in Leng Nuan's hometown. Thus, he had his secretary book a high-speed rail ticket and rushed over to that small town.
The town was actually quite beautiful, with verdant hills and clear waters. Other than the inconvenient transportation, there were almost no other shortcomings.
By the time Lu Ben arrived in town, it was already midnight. He found a guest house to stay in, and while chatting with the owner of the guest house, he asked if there were any old shops in town. Then he learned that the roast chicken shop in the west of town had been in business for several generations.
Lu Benlai knew that in a small town like this, no matter what happened to a family, every family would know about it. Thus, the longer one stayed here, the more they would know about the incident that happened ten years ago.
The next morning, Lu Benlai headed to the roasted chicken restaurant. He didn't beat around the bush, saying that he was from Beijing and wanted to understand the situation there. After which, he mentioned Leng Nuan's name.
Upon hearing the words' Leng Nuan ', the lady boss of the roasted chicken shop immediately asked, "You know Lass Nuan? Is she doing well now? Are you still as silly as before? "
Was Leng Nuan a fool?
Lu Benlai was perplexed, but he still replied honestly, "I know her. We're university classmates, and she's doing quite well at the moment. She's working at a very good foreign corporation in Beijing."
When the Lady Boss heard this, she immediately smiled in relief. "That's really a good thing. I was really afraid that the girl would be ruined just like that."
It was destroyed?
Lu Benlai couldn't help but ask, "Why did you say that? Also, I think she's pretty smart. Why do you say she's stupid? "
