97 A Change of Character
In the study, Sirius sized Lu Zhao up.
“You don’t really need me to get some faith healer to help you, do you? Why do I feel that this little girl has put a spell on you?” Sirius said.
“Let’s talk about serious matters.” Lu Zhao sat in his seat and looked at his unruly friend.
“This time, we passed by a logistics company in the middle of the delivery. The person in charge of it was called Wu Wei. Wu Wei has been married once overseas. Can you guess who he was married to?”
“Someone from the Lin Family?” Lu Zhao asked.
Wu Wei had offended Luo Ying before, so he had already been dealt with.
“That’s right. He was married to Lin Lu. Don’t you think it’s funny?” Sirius said.
Lu Zhao frowned.
Wu Wei had a close relationship with D’Corporeal. He had thought that it was only because of his close relationship with the Lin brothers, Lin Ping and Lin Su. He had not expected the real bridge to be Lin Lu.
Moreover, he was also having an affair with a small-time star who shared her name. It was an absolutely abnormal relationship.
“Also, this Wu Wei seems to be involved in illegal trades. He’s connected to a drug cartel family overseas. However, I haven’t seen any evidence of him engaging in drug trade yet. It’s a pity.” Sirius shrugged.
Lin’s enterprise was a pharmaceutical company, but recently, their business had been in a very bad state. It would not be surprising for them to resort to desperate measures.
Moreover, Lin Su had a lot of connections in the entertainment industry. It was not entirely impossible to expand his own industry chain in this way.
“It’s so disgusting. Anything else?” Lu Zhao asked.
“That’s why I came back personally to check on Wu Wei’s situation. I used to have a personal relationship with that small star, so I can help you investigate it.” As Sirius spoke, he threw Lu Zhao a flirtatious look. “After I succeed this time, can you promise me one thing?”
“What is it,” Lu Zhao said tiredly.
“Get a divorce,” Sirius said.
“No, I love her.” Lu Zhao raised his eyes and looked at Sirius.
Sirius sighed. “I don’t believe that a person would suddenly change into a different person and fall in love with someone she used to despise.
She didn’t actually want to ruin their marriage.
“Tell me about it. Her personality overnight, you went overseas, then they tried to assassinate you, and another party tried to rape her. She has been having an ambiguous relationship with the Lin Family for so many years. It’s hard for me not to view any of this without suspicion,” Sirius said.
Lu Zhao shook his head. “I believe in her, and I love her.”
Sirius’ mouth was wide open in surprise. Since when could his friend utter the word “love”?
“How did this even happen? You never wanted to argue with her in the past because you wanted to save face. Why are you even saying such things now?” Sirius said.
“She has truly changed. She has convinced someone as careful as me. I know for a fact that she loves me deeply.”
Sirius’ jaw almost dropped to the ground. “I don’t want to criticize you, but since when have you become so narcissistic? Everyone knows about her and Lin su, and you know about it too.”
Just as the two of them were arguing, someone knocked on the door.
“Who is it?” Lu Zhao asked.
“Zhang has finished cooking. Let’s go down and eat.” Luo Ying’s sweet voice was heard.
“Alright,” he said. Lu Zhao stood up and prepared to go downstairs.
Sirius shook his head and sighed. Love was the number one killer of great men.
He walked to the dining table, which was full of dishes.
There were tribal cuisines with light sweet fragrance and Western food.
A beef Wellington had been set in front of his seat.
In the original novel, this was indeed Sirius’ favorite meal.
Sirius gradually relaxed.
Luo Ying had truly changed. She was actually cooking according to his preferences.
He sat down and reluctantly said, “Sorry to trouble you, sister-in-law. This beef Wellington is serious stuff. Thank you for your concern.”
Luo Ying was a little happy when she saw Sirius finally easing up.
She should be able to win his friends over, one at a time.
