Chapter 192: Chapter 192 The Relationship Between An Wei and Lin Ke

An Wei has disappeared without a trace, and Qiao Yi could not possibly leave Nana, a young girl all alone at the airport. What if An Wei never returns?

Under normal circumstances, Qiao Yi wouldn’t worry about An Wei not coming back, but given An Wei’s highly suspicious identity, there was naturally even less credibility.

But, if An Wei really didn’t show up again, was she supposed to forever look after this little girl?

Qiao Yi looked down at Nana, who was clinging tightly to her hand and refusing to let go, and she couldn’t bring herself to be harsh.

Alright then, just take her with us. It’s just a little girl after all.

Lu Yanchuan was considerably unhappy about a young girl suddenly popping up in their duo’s world on the way to the hospital. He sat in the car with a stern face, releasing cold air as if it cost him nothing.

"Big person as you are, are you actually jealous of a child?"

Nana must have been really tired from the flight; she fell asleep in Qiao Yi’s arms shortly after getting in the car but seemed to rest uneasily, perhaps due to feeling insecure in the unfamiliar environment.

Lu Yanchuan, teased by Qiao Yi’s remark, didn’t refute, and even blatantly glanced at Nana.

Obviously, Mr. Lu harbored no fondness for this impertinent young girl who dared to occupy his wife’s embrace.

Qiao Yi was amused by his reaction, gently positioned Nana in a more comfortable pose, then leaned in to give Lu Yanchuan a kiss on the cheek, as if to make it up to him.

"Oh come on, don’t be cross. Think about how pitiful it is for a little girl to be left at the airport. Plus, Nana was already frightened at Guang City’s airport. If we leave her there alone, I’m afraid she would get scared out of her wits. Third Young Master, please be generous and don’t take it to heart, alright?"

Who could really take such things to heart with a little girl? Lu Yanchuan was just wary.

That An Wei didn’t seem like a good person at all. She had left this girl with Qiao Yi, which could very well be a ploy, utilizing Qiao Yi’s softheartedness for something.

Lu Yanchuan was afraid Qiao Yi would get hurt because of her tender heart.

Speaking of his suspicions to Qiao Yi would be pointless; even if she knew the dangers, she would still take Nana home.

She couldn’t bear to watch a young girl being abandoned at the airport all alone.

Since Qiao Yi was softhearted, Lu Yanchuan had no choice but to make up for any potential dangers his wife’s compassion might overlook.

Lu Yanchuan took away the cellphone Qiao Yi had brought back from Guang City, and although he would have liked to take Nana away too, when Qiao Yi pouted with a touch of red on her face, he couldn’t bring himself to say much else.

For a beauty’s smile, heroes are buried.

Who would have thought the mighty Mr. Lu could change his own mind just because of one look from a woman?

Lu Yanchuan investigated An Wei’s identity, not expecting to uncover another person from her past who shouldn’t be connected to An Wei.

"Lin Ke? Are you sure?"

"I’m sure. I hacked some data from the Civil Aviation Administration and traced it back to An Wei’s identity. Five years ago, she was studying at a university in country A, and Lin Ke was her classmate."

Yan Xiyu sent all the findings to Lu Yanchuan for him to verify. Lu Yanchuan could doubt Yan Xiyu’s character, but he never suspected that he would deceive him.

Were Lin Ke and An Wei still in contact? Or, did Lin Ke also have some special identity?

"Besides this piece of news, is there anything else useful?"

"That’s it. The data on An Wei is surprisingly clean. If she’s not truly innocent, then there must be a strong power behind her, creating a flawless identity for her."

Yan Xiyu was proud, but not arrogant. If something couldn’t be found, it couldn’t be found. Perhaps Lu Yanchuan could uncover more with his involvement, but with Yan Xiyu’s abilities, this was all he could get.

"Okay, I got it."

"But boss, aren’t you going to properly manage your own company? I’ve had enough of those little bastards."

Yan Xiyu tried to awaken what little conscience Lu Yanchuan had left, but he failed because Lu Yanchuan’s conscience wasn’t just scarce, it was long gone!

Lu Yanchuan hung up the phone ruthlessly and immediately added Yan Xiyu to the blacklist.

This emotionless, indifferent man!

No matter how Yan Xiyu cursed Lu Yanchuan in his mind, Lu Yanchuan was completely unaffected and went directly to Qiao Family with the documents.

Qiao Yi was organizing the documents for the new year and was caught off guard when Lu Yanchuan pulled her out of the company, still a bit stunned.

"Why are you looking for me at this time?"

Qiao Family wasn’t off work yet, and neither was Lu Group. Could it be that Lu Yanchuan, the workaholic, was skipping work to find her?

"How much do you know about Lin Ke?"

"Lin Ke?"

Although Qiao Yi wasn’t clear why Lu Yanchuan brought up Lin Ke, she still shared everything she knew since he specifically came to ask about her.

"Regarding Lin Ke, I don’t know much either. I only know that she was Lu Ming’s classmate and that due to her poor family conditions, Lu Ming had been sponsoring her education. Later, Lin Ke went abroad, and it seems that her contact with Lu Ming became less frequent."

By the end, even Qiao Yi herself found it ironic.

At the beginning, when she learned that she was going to have a marriage alliance with Lu Ming, she specifically investigated Lu Ming’s past. At that time, she didn’t take Lin Ke seriously, thinking their contact would fade after Lin Ke went abroad.

Who would have thought that Lu Ming would pressure her to donate one of her kidneys to Lin Ke.

Lu Yanchuan noticed something off about Qiao Yi’s expression, but before he could ask, Qiao Yi had already recomposed herself and casually asked back.

"Why did you suddenly bring up Lin Ke? Is she still with Lu Ming?"

Lu Yanchuan had warned Lu Ming a while ago to be careful in his affairs outside. Qiao Yi wondered if Lu Ming had heeded the warning.

However, it seemed unlikely that Lu Ming was the type to obediently listen.

"Lin Ke and An Wei were classmates in college."

"What?"

Qiao Yi was so shocked she could hardly believe that the news was true.

"Lin Ke and An Wei? How is that possible?"

Rather than disbelief, it was more accurate to say that Qiao Yi didn’t want to believe it.

If there was indeed some connection between Lin Ke and An Wei, then the situation would become complicated.

"Wait, this chain of relationships is too complex, let me think this through."

Qiao Yi’s mind was flooded with everything that had happened over the past month; the more she thought about it, the more irritated and alarmed she became.

It was like she was blindfolded and her ears blocked, groping her way through a jungle full of thorns, not knowing what dangers were lurking around her.

"Jenfors, An Wei, Lin Ke, and the Sun Family, what sort of connection do they have? Why are they targeting me, targeting the Qiao Family? Who in the world is An Wei?"
