Chapter 125: 066: Everyone is a player in the game_1

Fang Youling, the insider, couldn’t see what was apparent to Grandma Lu.

She simply wouldn’t sit by and watch her old friend get deceived.

Although Fang Hongyu is related by blood to Fang Youling,

you can never see into another’s heart.

Who knows how she might be scheming against Fang Youling behind her back?

Stunned by these words, Fang Youling paused.

She felt that Grandma Lu made a lot of sense, but also thought that Fang Hongyu had it tough.

"Sister Ah Yao, although that’s true, but..."

"But what?" Grandma Lu interrupted Fang Youling directly, "I’m telling you, those people who covet your belongings, they’re up to no good! Don’t believe a punctuation mark of what they say."

With her around,

nobody could even think about psychologically manipulating Fang Youling.

As she finished speaking, Grandma Lu furrowed her brows slightly as if something had occurred to her, "Youling, did Doctor Wu say something to you?"

Other than Wu Muzhen,

Grandma Lu couldn’t think of anyone else.

Because apart from herself, Wu Muzhen was the person Fang Youling trusted the most.

If Wu Muzhen said something, it would certainly make ripples in Fang Youling’s mind.

"No," Fang Youling shook her head, "Muzhen isn’t the person you think she is, she’s just like you, even reminding me to investigate if Hongyu has any connection with Du Juan!"

"Did she really say that?" Grandma Lu’s frown deepened.

Now the situation had come full circle.

If Fang Hongyu truly had no connection with Du Juan, then who could have deceived Tang Qiushui?

When Tang Qiushui disappeared, Fang Hongyu was attending classes at school as usual.

Thus,

it ruled out any suspicion towards Fang Hongyu.

But that didn’t mean that Tang Qiushui’s disappearance had nothing to do with Fang Hongyu.

What if Du Juan wanted to secure a lifetime of wealth and prosperity for her daughter, so she deceived Tang Qiushui?

So, the question arises.

If Wu Muzhen was in cahoots with Fang Hongyu, then she definitely knew about Du Juan’s existence. If she knew about the connection between Du Juan and Fang Hongyu, she wouldn’t have proactively advised Fang Youling to investigate Du Juan.

Wouldn’t that be jumping into a pit of her own making?

Unless,

this matter had nothing to do with Du Juan from beginning to end.

But apart from Du Juan,

who would risk imprisonment to steal away Tang Qiushui?

Wu Muzhen?

Just then, the visage of Wu Muzhen suddenly appeared before Grandma Lu’s eyes.

But quickly,

she dismissed the idea.

Because if you followed the timeline, ten years ago Wu Muzhen was nothing more than a village doctor who had never even left the mountains.

And Tang Qiushui had disappeared thirty years ago.

The logic didn’t add up.

Had she wronged a good person?

Was there truly no issue with Wu Muzhen?

And that Fang Hongyu wasn’t the person she had imagined.

Yet Grandma Lu still felt that something was amiss.

Fang Youling nodded, "Yes, Muzhen really said that."

As she spoke, Fang Youling looked towards Grandma Lu and said with a smile, "I trust Muzhen just as I trust you."

"Don’t." Grandma Lu waved her hands repeatedly, "Youling, I’ll say it again, at any time, the person you should trust the most is only yourself! What if Wu Muzhen was bought off by Fang Hongyu?"

Hearing this, Fang Youling chuckled, "I once offered Muzhen a cheque for twenty million, but she didn’t even give it a second glance."

This proved that Wu Muzhen wasn’t a person who coveted wealth and luxury.

Moreover,

what she could offer Wu Muzhen was much more than what Fang Hongyu could.

Grandma Lu continued, "Besides suggesting you investigate Du Juan, what else did she tell you?"

Fang Youling replied, "Actually, Muzhen’s thoughts are similar to yours, she reminded me to be wary of Hongyu, and also to take care of my health, not to overwork myself..."

These words indeed didn’t seem problematic.

For a moment,

the usually astute Grandma Lu was also baffled.

What was Wu Muzhen up to?

Had she really been overthinking things?

Suddenly, Grandma Lu reached up to scratch her head and then said, "Did you investigate Du Juan?"

"I had someone look into it, and we should have results by tonight," Fang Youling nodded.

Just then, footsteps were heard at the entrance of the resting area.

The old lady who had been slouching instantly straightened up, regaining an elegant seating posture in a flash.

She could lose anything but the image of her great beauty!

Especially in the grand Capital City.

Seeing her like this, Fang Youling chuckled softly.

Grandma Lu walked over to Fang Youling, took her arm, and said, "Youling, let’s go. We’ll talk about Du Juan when we get back tonight. For now, let’s chat about something pleasant and have some tasty food."

"Alright."

Two elderly ladies, their average age having reached venerable years, strolled as if time didn’t exist, chatting and laughing, as if in a split second, they were young again.
