A slow and lazy voice with deep sleepiness could be heard from the receiver . “Oh, understood . ”
Within half an hour, Lu Zhanbei already received the information sent over by Mo Jiushang .
Unlike Gu Mo, who fronted as Lu Zhanbei’s assistant in public, Mo Jiushang was in charge of formal operations and intelligence gathering . His intelligence network was spread all over the world . If he wanted to check something, there was nothing that couldn’t be found .
Lin Wanwan’s information was very simple . Her father was Lin Qinghao . Her mother, who was the mistress, suddenly disappeared when she was four years old . Shortly after, she burned her brains due to a high fever .
For the next ten years or so, she lived a life of being beaten and bullied every day . As time passed, her character became more cowardly and timid .
These pieces of information were accompanied by pictures of the truth and were definitely not adulterated .
There were even photos of Lin Wanwan being forcibly injected with drugs by Tao Xinyue . The photo showed Lin Wanwan hugging a rabbit doll and shivering in the corner . Her innocent eyes were full of fear . The kind of uneasiness that manifested from the inside out was definitely not something out of pretense .
Lu Zhanbei’s and Lin Wanwan’s first encounter was also because of this matter . He was entrusted by someone to keep her safe, and thus, he had rushed over to bring her back .
But…
What he saw then was not a fool filled with fear and uneasiness . Instead, her eyes were clear and vivid . No stupidity could be detected from her eyebrows . She was totally different from the Lin Wanwan on the photo .
Lin Wanwan seemed to have changed completely overnight .
Not only was she not a fool anymore, she even knew how to act, race…
Lin Wanwan had not learned these skills before . Instead, Lin Xiao was very good at them .
Coupled with the sleep talk that Lin Wanwan had said previously…
Suddenly, Lu Zhanbei sucked in a cold breath of air .
All the information pointed to that one truth .
A lot of information hit Lu Zhanbei’s brain at once . His temples started to ache . As he used one hand to hold his forehead, he used the other to crush out the cigarette in his fingers .
This night, Lin Wanwan slept very unsteadily . She always subconsciously thought about Si Han’s pained look . She was struggling internally whether or not she should tell him the truth . At the same time, she was curious about when in her previous life did she have an entanglement with Lu Zhanbei .
After a long time, she finally fell asleep . When she woke up again, it was already noon .
Lin Wanwan had just opened her eyes when she saw Lu Zhanbei’s magnified handsome face well within reach .
“Ah!” She was shocked and rolled to the side . “You’ve scared me to death!”
Lin Wanwan did not sense that Lu Zhanbei was vaguely sizing her up through his deep, bottomless eyes . She sat on the edge of the bed and realized a layer of stubble had grown on his fair-skinned and smooth chin . She could not help but feel shocked . “What did you do last night? Didn’t you rest at all for a night?”
Lu Zhanbei shook his head . He did not answer and instead asked, “Are you hungry?”
Coincidentally, Lin Wanwan’s stomach chose to let out a rumbling sound then . She instantly turned shy and covered her face .
Lu Zhanbei gave a low laugh and held her hand . “Get up quickly . Let’s go and have a meal . ”
“Ok!”
Lin Wanwan did a simple wash up and followed Lu Zhanbei downstairs .
The table was full of dishes that looked, smelled, and tasted good . Lu Zhanbei sat next to her and didn’t pick up his chopsticks . He just looked at her quietly .
Although she ate very quickly, she was not lacking in elegance . One look and it was clear that she had undergone good etiquette training .
“Lin Wanwan . ”
Lin Wanwan, who was chowing down, took some time off to look at him . “Yes?”
“What… do you like to eat?”
