Thinking of this, and looking at the storage card in front of him, Lu Yu couldn't help but be slightly shocked.

He never imagined that Leng Huai Xin would constantly keep track of the developments of the Lu Family's assets from those years, let alone that the offhand remark he made last time would be remembered by Leng Qingqiu, who even went back specifically to ask Leng Huai Xin about it.

Seeing Lu Yu's expression, Leng Huai Xin smiled slightly and said, "Back then, I was very good friends with your parents. I'm really sorry about what happened to the Lu Family, but my capabilities are ultimately limited. Regarding the Lu Family's assets that were divided up, I could only investigate them secretly, and this can be considered an account to you."

In his words, Leng Huai Xin was full of somberness, as if recalling the events of the past. His gaze turned to the sky, as if he was reminiscing about something.

"Uncle, thank you."

Hearing Leng Huai Xin's words, Lu Yu slowly spoke, his tone steady and filled with a sense of gratitude.

Since the Lu Family's collapse, all those so-called partners and friends had vanished without a trace.

Seeing the coldness of human nature, Lu Yu also saw it clearly at that moment.

Now the Leng Family is so concerned about the developments of the divided Lu Family's assets and treats him the same as before, without any change; this truly moves Lu Yu!

"Lu Yu, you don't need to thank me. As a friend of your parents, I'm just doing what I should be doing; you shouldn't put too much weight on it."

Hearing Lu Yu's words, Leng Huai Xin said, "Instead, it's you. I heard from Qingqiu that you've changed significantly, and your personality is very different from before. I'm telling you these things just so you're aware, not that I want you to investigate the events of those years."

His words were filled with a certain helplessness: "Surviving is already the greatest hope for the Lu Family. The things entangled with the Lu Family back then were too complicated and can't be understood casually."

As he spoke, Leng Huai Xin paused slightly, then continued, "Therefore, I hope you won't act on impulse to investigate things beyond your capability. To this day, peace is the greatest blessing, isn't it?"

"Uncle, I understand."

Upon hearing this, Lu Yu spoke, his words also filled with helplessness: "Don't worry, this matter, even if I want to delve deeper, is indeed beyond my power. As you said, the events of that time are complex, and those who orchestrated everything are exceptionally powerful; I can't do anything."

In his words, Lu Yu's tone was humble and low, as if he had really accepted his fate. Yet beneath this seemingly accepting appearance, Lu Yu had already made up his mind to thoroughly investigate this matter!

After all, he couldn't just walk away from the Lu Family's blood feud from those years!

"I'm glad you understand."

Hearing Lu Yu's words, Leng Huai Xin nodded slightly, looked at Lu Yu with a slight smile, and said, "Since that's the case, that's all I wanted to talk to you about. Go speak with Qingqiu; she's a bit aloof, and developing your relationship with her would be good."

In his words, Leng Huai Xin spoke with a feeling of calm steadfastness.

He had regarded Lu Yu as a son-in-law five years ago, and now he was naturally eager to bring his daughter and Lu Yu together.

"Understood, Uncle."

Hearing Leng Huai Xin's words, Lu Yu smiled slightly, picked up the storage card on the table, and slowly walked towards Leng Qingqiu's room.

...

At this moment, Leng Qingqiu was sitting in front of the table in her room, staring intently at the open laptop in front of her. Her beautiful eyes showed a trace of confusion.

Now, thinking back to Lu Yu's expression in the car, she felt even more confused and puzzled.

That kind of composure and steadiness, Leng Qingqiu had only seen such traits on her father and some older people who had weathered all kinds of storms.

Modesty and steadiness are definitely marks of a mature man.

This marker surprisingly appeared on Lu Yu, who used to be frivolous and indulgent, and it indeed surprised Leng Qingqiu.

As the President of Victory Group, Leng Qingqiu was very clear that while a person's appearance and demeanor can be disguised, temperament cannot be faked!

The depth and steadiness Lu Yu displayed in the car earlier were definitely not something he could pretend!

If he hadn't weathered storms, he wouldn't possibly possess such demeanor and temperament!

Now Leng Qingqiu only felt that the Lu Yu in front of her was becoming more and more mysterious, yet increasingly unfamiliar.

Thinking of this, she shook her head, gathered her thoughts, and her slender, fair fingers tapped on the laptop. Instantly, a satellite map appeared in front of her.

On the satellite map, that shadow remained striking, but what was beneath it was unknown to Leng Qingqiu.

Lu Yu's transformation to his current state was inextricably linked to the deserted island he mentioned, and there is a great possibility it is shrouded in this shadow!

Only by finding out the information about this deserted island might it be possible to understand what Lu Yu went through in these past five years.

Thinking of this, Leng Qingqiu took out her phone, ready to call Professor Zhang Qiren to inquire about his progress.

Buzz!

Just then, her phone suddenly rang, its sound exceptionally clear in the room.

Upon hearing it, Leng Qingqiu glanced towards the phone.

On the screen, Zhang Qiren's number was prominently displayed!

Seeing Zhang Qiren's number, Leng Qingqiu's heart skipped a beat.

Was Zhang Qiren calling now because he had successfully located that shadow?

Thinking of this, Leng Qingqiu's eyes slightly moved, and she slowly picked up her phone. After hesitating for a moment as she looked at Zhang Qiren's number, she pressed the call button and said, "Hello?"

"President Leng."

Upon connecting the call, Zhang Qiren's voice came through, filled with panic and a hint of anxious terror, as if he had been frightened by something: "I've made a big mistake!"

A big mistake?

Hearing this, Leng Qingqiu's elegant brows furrowed, then she asked, "Professor Zhang, what is going on? What happened?"

Leng Qingqiu couldn't figure it out. Wasn't she just asking Zhang Qiren to locate the shadow on the satellite map? Why was Zhang suddenly calling her, saying he made a big mistake!

Leng Qingqiu couldn't understand how locating the shadow on a satellite map could lead to any significant mishap!
