Lu Ming immediately fell silent. The dispute between him and George was not just personal, but also between the two families. The two had been fighting since childhood, competing in everything.

However, because he was raised by his grandfather, even though their status in the Lighthouse Country did not prevail, he still won more than he lost. The most important thing was that he had a very good external image and was much more popular than the domineering George, so the other party suffered a lot at his hands.

But this alone was not enough to make George set him up in such a deadly situation, which made him fall into deep thought.

Lianyi didn't give the other party much time to think. She asked Lu Ming to change his clothes and then sent him home in a taxi. The rest of the matters would be handled by the Lu family. It had nothing to do with her.

Lianyi investigated the plot against Lu Ming overnight, mainly because she was used to being cautious. After all, she was acting alone. What if someone was targeting her and deliberately designed to get close to her?
The other party used Chinese people when designing the trap, which made her think too much. This was not her home country. All her actions were without support. If something went wrong, there would be no one to ask for help. She could only rely on herself, so in Lianyi's opinion, no matter how cautious she was, it was not excessive.

Fortunately, she passed by that back alley by accident, and it was true that Lu Ming was framed, but the other party did not expect that she would appear halfway.

After Lianyi conducted a background check on Lu Ming, she felt that her rescue was not a whim but an instinct.

The Lu family's social status, financial resources, and connections in the Lighthouse Country were all helpful to her, so even though she took a great risk in rescuing people this time, it was necessary to make the Lu family owe her this favor.

Let’s go back to Lu Ming. After he got a taxi back home, he saw everyone in the family, young and old, were all there. They were relieved to see that he returned safely.

Lu's mother hugged him and cried. Lu's father scolded his son severely. He wanted to hit him, but when he saw his son's bleeding arm, he couldn't bring himself to do it.

In the end, Mr. Lu called his grandson to the study and carefully inquired about the whole story.

Lu Ming was closest to his grandfather, so he told him the whole story without reservation, expressed his suspicions, and conveyed the request of his savior.

Mr. Lu tapped the table with his hands and pondered for a long time before he opened the drawer, took out a stack of photos, and handed them to his grandson:
"These are photos of the gunfight scene. Take a look for yourself."

Lu Ming's hands were shaking as he took the photo. He said with a sad face:

"Grandpa, I faint from blood!"

Mr. Lu said unhappily:
"I specially had the black and white photos developed. Take a close look at them."

Lu Ming then turned his eyes, which he had deliberately raised, to the photo in his hand. After looking at it for a long time, he felt a chill on the back of his neck. He swallowed and said:

"Grandpa, these people were all shot to death."

"Yes, except for the people who were shot dead during the exchange of fire, the rest were shot dead. What do you think after watching it?"

Lu Ming thought for a moment and said:

"Well, that woman is amazing."

Master Lu glared at his grandson and said unhappily:

"Do I need to tell you? Anyone can see it! If she is as young as you described, and she saved you because you have Flower Country blood, then she is either a killer or a professional trained by the Flower Country."

Lu Ming turned his grandfather's words over in his mind, and suddenly understood. He immediately nodded and said:
"Grandpa, I understand. We must repay this favor, and it's best to agree to all her requests."

Mr. Lu nodded with satisfaction and said:

"I'm not stupid. I saved you not only because you have the blood of the Flower Country, but also because of our Lu family's status in the Lighthouse Country. Otherwise, I wouldn't have deliberately shown my skill."

Mr. Lu thought a lot, but his guess did match Lianyi's purpose.

"Moreover, this favor is owed by you, and this lady will only ask you to repay it in the future. You must cooperate and don't embarrass the Lu family." Mr. Lu added.

"Yes, Grandpa!"

"After listening to you for so long, do you know what his name is?"

Mr. Lu asked with a look of disappointment.

Lu Ming was a little dumbfounded and said stutteringly:

"Grandpa, I didn't dare to ask before I understood the situation!"

"Okay, practice your courage more in the future, and don't go out fooling around recently. Stay at home and recover from your injuries. If George asks you about it, pretend you know nothing and say you were unlucky. Blame the reason you were rescued on the private bodyguard I hired for you."

"Okay, Grandpa."

Lu Mingan rested quietly at home for a month, and only started to visit his friends again after the scrapes on his arms had scabbed over and fallen off. During this period, George did contact him through other people, trying to find out about his distress in a roundabout way.

Lu Ming received instructions from his grandfather, and also learned from his savior that it was George who plotted against him, so he explained what had happened in a few words, and pushed all the credit onto the bodyguard who had secretly protected him, thus putting the matter behind him.

As a result, a month later, his savior came to him on his own initiative. He was happy and scared. He was happy because he could finally repay the favor, but he was scared because the other party was not someone he could afford to offend.

When Lu Ming drove to the high-end apartment that Lianyi mentioned, Lianyi and Lu Ming went upstairs and into the room like conjoined twins.

After entering the room, Lu Ming put away his playboy behavior and sat obediently on the sofa with his hands on his knees, as if waiting for Lianyi's orders.

Lian Yi smiled, put her handbag back into the study, and then said to Lu Ming:

"Let's exchange contact information first."

Lu Ming immediately took out his cell phone and exchanged phone numbers with Lian Yi.

Ripple continued:

"My name is Xiao Shijia now. I am the illegitimate daughter of the Xiao family. I have not been recognized by the Xiao family yet. However, the head of the Xiao family knows of my existence and has provided me with a good life. If I can help the Xiao family's company, they may recognize me."

After hearing this informative speech, Lu Ming immediately started to think about it.

First of all, the name and identity of Xiao Shijia are definitely fake, a disguise, but this disguise was agreed by the Xiao family.

Secondly, Xiao Shijia’s comfortable life is guaranteed by the financial support from her “father”, but if she wants to return to the Xiao family, she has to do something.

Thirdly, it is the Lu family who can help the Xiao family's company, so it is very reasonable for Xiao Shijia to take the initiative to "seduce" him and "offer herself to him". After all, this is the fastest way she can think of to help the Xiao family.

After thinking this through, Lu Ming immediately said:
"Shijia, how do you want me to help the Xiao family?"

Lianyi was very satisfied with Lu Ming's approach. She smiled and said:

"The Xiao family has a batch of equipment to be shipped to Hua Country, but this batch of equipment is not on the export list."

Lu Ming frowned and did not agree immediately. Although he was a bit of a playboy, he was still involved in the family business. Things that were not on the export list were mostly controlled by the Lighthouse Country, so it was so difficult. (End of this chapter)
