Hearing the sound on the phone and looking at the photo of the person on the computer in front of him, Mu Qian couldn't help but be interested.

"Miss Lu?" Mu Qian slowly leaned into the chair, "Is there anything I can do with me?"

Lu Yuan's tone was very calm and calm, "That's right. Yesterday, my cousin's engagement banquet prepared souvenirs for all the guests, but Mrs. Huo left a little early and forgot to give you the gift. I heard that Mrs. Huo has a painting hall, and I don't know where to deliver the gift?"

She will give Lu Tang's souvenir for the engagement banquet?

Mu Qian couldn't help but feel something, "Of course. I will go to the painting hall later. Miss Lu is very welcome to visit."

"See you later." Lu Yuan was obviously satisfied with Mu Qian's answer and quickly hung up the phone.

Mu Qian put down her cell phone, stared at the information on the computer for a moment, then got up and returned to the room, changed her clothes and went out.

When Mu Qian arrived at the painting hall, Lu Yuan was already standing at the entrance of the painting hall, looking carefully at the picture of the prosperous peony hanging by Mu Qian in the center of the entrance.

"Hi." Mu Qian walked into the door and called her, "Miss Lu."

Lu Yuan turned around and smiled slightly after seeing her, "I heard that this painting hall was opened in the name of Mrs. Huo's father, and the main exhibitions are all your father's paintings?"

Mu Qian nodded, "Yes."

"I had the honor of seeing your father's paintings before," Lu Yuan said. "This peony picture is not like his usual style."

When Mu Qian heard this, he raised his eyebrows slightly, "You are right. My father's usual paintings are graceful and light, but he can only use color to be enthusiastic and bold when painting peonies."

After hearing this, Lu Yuan felt something, "because the peony represents the hottest emotion in his heart."

"Yes." Mu Qian said, "My mother."

Lu Yuan stared at the peony picture in front of him for a moment, then slowly said: "My parents have deep love, it's really enviable."

envious?

While leading Lu Yuan inside, Mu Qian said, "My father left when I was ten years old, and my mother then went to the United States. The time they spent together was too short."

"How can love be calculated based on the length of time?" Lu Yuan said, "Although it is only more than ten years, it is better to be able to fall in love with each other sincerely and passionately than to consume each other in the long river of marriage and eventually become strangers."

Hearing Lu Yuan's words, Mu Qian stopped and turned to look at her, "I heard that Mr. Lu and Mrs. Lu have been supporting each other for many years, and the couple has a deep affection, right?"

Lu Yuan chuckled softly, "It's funny to say this. Mrs. Huo herself is also a wealthy family. For many years, who can say that it is not a deep love between husband and wife? But in fact, only her own people know what it is."

Since only my own people know, why tell her?

Mu Qian couldn't help but look at Lu Yuan for a few more times, but saw that Lu Yuan's gaze had already fallen on her childhood portrait.

"Is this when you were a child?" Lu Yuan asked.

Mu Qian nodded slowly, "Yes, this is the last painting my father painted."

"It can be seen that your father loves you very much," Lu Yuan said.

Mu Qian raised her face slightly and said slowly: "Of course."

Lu Yuan didn't say anything more, followed Mu Qian into her office and gave Mu Qian the souvenir she brought specially.

"Thank you." Mu Qian said, "Thank you for a special trip for such a thing."

Lu Yuan smiled slightly and said, "I am actually very curious about Mrs. Huo, so I am willing to go this trip to satisfy my own curiosity, and it is not a hard work."

Mu Qian suddenly remembered Su Yu, turned his head and looked at Lu Yuan, and smiled and said, "Then have I disappointed you?"

"How could it be?" Lu Yuan replied, "You are very smart, beautiful, and brave."

Speaking of this, Lu Yuan paused for a moment before saying, "I have read two reports after you returned to China, which are amazing, especially... the one about the Sha Yunping criminal gang."

Mu Qian didn't expect that she would suddenly mention this. After looking at her for a while, she said again: "But for me, the biggest regret is that she failed to find out the person behind Sha Yunping. That report is really not complete."

"Then do you plan to continue pursuing?"

Mu Qian turned her head slightly and asked back, "Why not?"

"Don't you consider the danger when you do these things?" Lu Yuan said calmly, "You have family and husband, how can you ignore the consequences when doing things?"

"People are going to die sooner or later. When they are not lucky, they may die unexpectedly when they go out for a walk." Mu Qian paused for a moment before continuing, "Just like my best friend... She just made an appointment with me. I was waiting for her to come to find me. Who knew... She had a car accident halfway and drove into the river..."

Lu Yuan seemed to think of who she was talking about, "You mean Ye Jinfan's sister?"

"Yes." Mu Qian said, "She is my best friend. Unfortunately, she can't even see her brother's engagement banquet and wedding."

"That accident is indeed a pity." Lu Yuan whispered.

Mu Qian still looked at her calmly and said, "So, why should people be afraid of death? Just insist on doing what they think is right, right?"

After hearing this, Lu Yuan was silent for a moment and did not respond.

Mu Qian then continued: "However, I am also very grateful to Miss Lu for reminding me like this. After all, we are just a chance meeting, and even in the eyes of others, we may still be rivals in love."

When Lu Yuan heard this, he couldn't help laughing, "What kind of rivals do we think we are? If we have this qualification, it would be my honor."

"It's Huo Jinxi who is not lucky." Mu Qian said, "I missed the Lu family, Weng family. Speaking of which, I feel sorry for him. Brother Ye is still lucky to be admired by a beautiful lady like Miss Lu Tang."

Lu Yuan smiled faintly, then said, "Actually, my cousin is stupid. If you recognize someone, you will fall in and you can't even pull it out."

"They were only engaged yesterday," Mu Qian said, "Don't you think they are made of heaven and earth?"

Lu Yuan's smile was still very light, "Emotional affairs are the affairs of two people, and outsiders don't have much to say. I just keep my own opinions. In my opinion, they are far less intimate than Mr. Huo and Mrs. Huo."

Is she natural intimate with Huo Jinxi? Mu Qian didn't care much about this issue, but Lu Yuan mentioned Huo Jinxi again. Somehow she remembered what happened last night and felt a little hot.

But now it was obviously not the time to think about this. Mu Qian came to her senses, and Lu Yuan was still looking at her calmly, smiling calmly.

To be honest, the two of them chatted for a long time, but Mu Qian had not yet figured out the purpose of Lu Yuan coming today.

When she was quickly reviewing the content of the two people's communication today, the door suddenly knocked.

After Mu Qian responded, Secretary Chen Di pushed open the door and walked in, "Mrs. Huo, Officer Rong looked for you."

Rong Heng? Mu Qian frowned slightly. Before he could answer, Lu Yuan had already stood up, "Since Mrs. Huo still has something to do, I won't disturb you much. I've had a great time chatting with you today, and I hope there will be a chance to meet next time."

Since she had said that, Mu Qian did not make any unnecessary attempts to keep her and stood up to see her leave.

When she sent Lu Yuan to the door, Rong Heng happened to come up from downstairs and his eyes fell on Lu Yuan, clearly slightly surprised.

When Lu Yuan saw him, he just smiled faintly, nodded as saying hello, and soon passed by him.

Rong Heng walked to Mu Qian's office door, couldn't help but look back, and just saw Lu Yuan's figure disappearing at the entrance of the stairs.

Then he looked at Mu Qian, "What did she do here?"

Mu Qian shrugged and said truthfully: "I don't know."

"Don't know?" Rong Heng followed her into the office, "She came to find you, don't know what she is here for?"

"Yes." Mu Qian replied very calmly, "She came to me and talked to me about some or no, but I really haven't thought about what her specific purpose is."

Rong Heng sat down, looked at her and said, "You have always been very alert and you can't even notice her motives. How good should she hide it?"

Mu Qian touched her chin and thought for a moment.

Is Lu Yuan hiding well?

It seems yes, because Mu Qian really didn't notice any of her intentions.

But when the two talked about their parents, Huo Jinxi, and Ye Jinfan and Ye Tang, every word and sentence seemed to be from the truth and there was no lie.

"She came for her second brother?" Rong Heng asked.

Mu Qian shook her head, "Not like it."

"Is that for Ye Jinfan and Lu Tang's engagement banquet?"

“Not it.”

Rong Henghuan moved forward and frowned and said, "Is that because of Sha Yunping's involvement with the Lu family?"

"We did mention this matter a little," Mu Qian said, "She seemed to know something about me in the case of Sha Yunping, and she kindly reminded me."

"Reminder?" Rong Heng said slowly, "or threat?"

Mu Qian carefully recalled the situation at that time and slowly shook her head, "It doesn't seem like a threat. With her age and qualifications, such things do not seem to be related to her."

Rong Heng suddenly sneered, "Did you forget that she is from the Lu family? She comes to you and will definitely have a purpose. Even you can't notice this purpose. How do you know what she is like with such a deep scheming?"

"I don't know." Mu Qian said, "It's just a gut feeling... she doesn't seem to be hostile to me."

Rong Heng scoffed at this.

This time he came here, and he took two archive documents to sign for Mu Qian. After Mu Qian signed it, he got up and left. Before leaving, he did not forget to remind Mu Qian: "The people in the Lu family are not easy to mess with. You'd better put away your intuition and be more careful about Lu Yuan."

Mu Qian responded vaguely twice and sent him downstairs to leave.

When he turned around and was about to return to the upper floor, Mu Qian's eyes suddenly fell on his childhood portrait.

At the same time, today's conversation with Lu Yuan came to my mind one by one.

She suddenly realized that Lu Yuan was just coming to her today.

Her family, her parents, the cases she investigated, her safety, her friendship and love...

As Lu Yuan said, what she was curious about was just her.
