Chapter 29 -29: Picking Out Red Beans Because of an Allergy?

The man, trembling, confessed that after he strangled the girl with a rope and confirmed she wasn’t breathing, he took a picture and sent it to the buyer.

Li Muchen couldn’t help but frown slightly.

Evidently, the girl had not died; perhaps she had deceived the man in some way, or maybe there was some other unknown secret he was unaware of.

“Boss, what do we do now?” Chen An looked up and said, “If the murder-for-hire was arranged through the Dark Web, and this person knows nothing about the client, we really can’t find out who wants the miss dead. At most, we can only send him to the police station.”

“Then send him to the station,” Li Muchen’s voice was ice-cold, “He has more than one life on his hands, he needs to pay for those he has harmed before.”

Lu Sheng told Li Muchen that he had other matters these next two days; he needed to prepare for the entrance exam for new students at Shengjing High School.

Lu Jingyan instructed Lu Qianrou to use the day to tutor her, to go over the key points for the exam.

After yesterday’s incident at the mall, Lu Sheng thought that Lu Qianrou would outright refuse, yet, unexpectedly, not only did she agree, but she also came over last night specifically to ask her to wake up early today.

As if yesterday never happened.

Although Lu Sheng didn’t know what Lu Qianrou was up to, it was definitely not anything good.

But Lu Sheng couldn’t be bothered to guess what exactly she wanted to do.

At half-past eight in the morning.

The housekeeper, as usual, came to call her for breakfast; Lu Sheng was about to go out, but Black Bean, who had been dozing off in the blankets, suddenly raised its head and let out a meow—

Lu Sheng turned her head, and in the next second, Black Bean suddenly leaped onto her. The round little head rubbed against her chest, meowing several times.

“Are you saying, someone wants to harm me?”

Black Bean only reacted like this when sensing malice and danger for her; while smoothing his fur, Lu Sheng bent her head to ask.

“Meow~” Black Bean nodded his small head, as if affirming.

“I see.” Lu Sheng rubbed Black Bean’s head and narrowed her eyes.

[Dining Room]

Although she had only stayed in the Lu Family for two days, Lu Sheng had already roughly learned about the Lu Family’s daily routine from the housekeepers.

Lu Jingyan was the earliest riser, typically leaving for the company before eight o’clock. Lu Chengye and Jiang Ting wouldn’t get up until nearly noon; after lunch, the two would go out to dine, drink, play cards, and enjoy themselves, not returning until the early morning hours.

Lu Youye would stay up late playing video games, usually sleeping until two or three in the afternoon. Lu Qianrou’s schedule was unpredictable; if she had a date with Fu Chen, she would rise early to put on makeup and dress up, but if not, she too would sleep until noon.

So upon arriving at the dining room and seeing both Jiang Ting and Lu Qianrou sitting at the dining table, Lu Sheng couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow.

These two were up rather early.

That day at the Fu household, she had managed to completely offend Mrs. Fu and Jiang Ting.

If it weren’t for later going into the room and telling Grandpa Fu to not pressure Fu Chen and Lu Qianrou into breaking up, and putting aside her engagement to Fu Chen, Jiang Ting probably wouldn’t even have shown her a pleasant face at the Lu household these past two days.

“Mother, sister, good morning,” Lu Sheng approached the dining table and greeted politely.

Jiang Ting didn’t even lift her eyelids, took a sip of the coffee in her hand, and coldly tossed out a sentence: “Sit.”

“Thank you, mother.”

Lu Sheng did not mind Jiang Ting’s cold demeanor, or rather, it would have been abnormal for Jiang Ting to be warm to her, so she pulled out a chair and sat down beside her.

Before Lu Sheng was a bowl of red bean porridge, the same as Lu Qianrou’s.

Each day, the Lu Family’s chef would prepare breakfast according to the different tastes of the Lu Family.

Jiang Ting preferred Western flavors, usually toasted bread with butter, eggs, and coffee; Lu Chengye enjoyed noodles, Lu Qianrou liked porridge, and Lu Youye skipped breakfast.
