Old town, a certain alley

Chen Yue parked the car at the entrance of the alley. There were two people standing at the entrance of the alley. Someone came over immediately when they saw the car.

Chen Yue got out of the car and opened the door, "Mr. Gu, we are here!"

The bodyguard walked up to the two of them and whispered: "Mr. Gu, Assistant Chen, they are always at home."

Chen Yue: "Lead the way!"

"Yes."

Lu Ming in the room looked out the window and occasionally glanced at the two men who were supervising him upstairs. His thoughts of climbing out of the window disappeared immediately.

He walked to the door again, opened it, and could vaguely hear footsteps coming from the first floor.

Then he resigned himself to his fate and stepped back without even closing the door.

The bodyguard led Chen Yue and Gu Qinglan up to the second floor, "Mr. Gu, you are in the first room at the top of the stairs on the second floor."

Chen Yue: "Just wait here!"

"Yes!"

Chen Yue followed Gu Qinglan to the second floor and saw the door at the stairway of the second floor wide open. He knocked on the door and said, "Mr. Lu."

Lu Ming turned around and saw Gu Qinglan walking to the door.

Gu Qinglan glanced at him, "Lu Ming?"

Lu Ming: "No, you have found the wrong person!"

Gu Qinglan chuckled, "That's right!"

Chen Yue: "Mr. Lu, we have something to ask you for!"

Lu Ming: "Looking for me? Do you call this looking for someone?"

"So many people are blocking my house. Is this polite?!"

Chen Yue wanted to explain, but Gu Qinglan raised his hand to stop him, "Chen Yue, wait for me outside."

"Yes, Mr. Gu."

Chen Yue exited and closed the door.

Lu Ming saw this and protested, "Don't close the door!"

Gu Qinglan looked at the layout of the house, and then said calmly: "Don't worry, I came here today because I want to consult you on some things, and I won't do anything to you!"

Lu Ming casually retreated to the window and leaned on the outer edge of the window, pretending to be casual, "Mr. Gu, what do you want to see me for?"

Gu Qinglan raised her eyebrows slightly, do you know his last name?

Gu Qinglan pulled the chair next to her, sat down, and then looked towards the window edge, "Are you on good terms with Zhang Tianyi?"

Lu Ming: "It's a customer relationship. When he has something to do, he comes to me and I do things for him. It's a money transaction relationship."

"Money relationship?" Gu Qinglan sneered, "Can the money relationship be good enough to help him find the place where his mother's ashes are buried?"

"Do you know Gu Yan and Huang Yuan?"

Although the last sentence was a rhetorical question, the tone was affirmative.

Lu Ming: "..."

Although there was a faint smile in Gu Qinglan's phoenix eyes, the smile was extremely intimidating.

He now knew why Ruan Qing wanted him to tell the truth!

Lu Ming cursed secretly, and then admitted with a playful smile, "I know you."

"One is the mayor's wife, and the other is the loser of the Gu family who was kicked out. Who doesn't know her?"

The smile in Gu Qinglan's eyes gradually faded away, not because of his words, but because he knew that Lu Ming was doing Tai Chi with him.

Gu Qinglan looked at him with a calm expression and moved her lips, "Lu Ming, I prefer to be more direct. Are you sure that your Tai Chi skills can help the people behind you hide it?"

"Do you think I really can't find it?"

Although the words were light and airy, the sense of coercion was unabated.

Lu Ming: "Mr. Gu, what you said is all true. If you don't believe it, there's nothing I can do about it."

Gu Qinglan looked at him, her legs crossed together, her fingers clasped on her knees, her posture casual.

"Lu Ming, there was an accidental fire in the old city. You were rescued. You were discharged after lying in the hospital for a few days. You have been missing since then!"

When Lu Ming heard him mention the fire, his expression was silent and he looked at him intently. He no longer had the playful smile before.

Gu Qinglan continued: "But you came back half a year ago, and you returned to the old city again."

He glanced behind Lu Ming and said, "By the way, from your window, you can just see the alley where the accidental fire broke out."

Lu Ming was on guard, and his voice was a bit colder, "Mr. Gu, you have done a lot of research!"

Gu Qinglan: "So, I suggest you tell the truth to me."

"We can make a deal. You tell me the person who asked you to send the email, and I will help you find the cause of the fire."

Lu Ming turned around and glanced at the dark alley of the house not far away, which was the trace left after the fire was extinguished. His fingers unconsciously dug at the metal outer edge of the window.

Gu Qinglan saw his actions and remained silent.

After a moment, Lu Ming turned around and said, "Mr. Gu, there is no need to make a deal between us. I will tell you everything you want to know, except for the mailman's matter."

Gu Qinglan's expression was slightly stagnant, "You won't tell?"

Lu Ming looked at him calmly, "All I can tell you is that this person will not harm you."

Gu Qinglan stared at him, not missing any reaction on his face. After a few seconds, he asked: "Do I know this person?"

Lu Ming: "As long as Mr. Gu knows that she won't hurt you." Let's make a deal

Gu Qinglan saw that he was not sleeping, and then asked, "Is it true that Song Wan's urn was buried under the Huang family's kennel?"

Lu Ming: "This is true."

Gu Qinglan: "The person who sent you the email told you this, or where did you learn about it?"

Lu Ming: "Mr. Gu, don't you believe the content of the email?"

Gu Qinglan: "It's about friends, I have to figure it out."

Lu Ming: "Mr. Gu, you really don't trust anyone."

Gu Qinglan: "Lu Ming, don't you tell me who is behind you? She also told you about this matter?"

"I know this person, and he won't hurt me. She asked you to send an email to Zhang Tianyi, and the email mentioned Huang Yuan and Gu Yan. This is obviously to let me know through Zhang Tianyi that there may be another hidden reason behind my mother's death. "

"Now she's telling you not to reveal her name."

Having said this, a smile appeared on his lips, and his eyes were extremely determined, "I think I should know who it is?"

Lu Ming was stunned, "You know?"

Gu Qinglan stood up and said, "Thank you for what you told me today."

Lu Ming was anxious, "I didn't say anything? How do you know who it is?"

Gu Qinglan turned around and left, leaving Lu Ming shouting behind him, "I didn't tell you, don't talk nonsense to her!"

The corners of Gu Qinglan's mouth rose infinitely, and she opened the door and left the room with long legs.

Chen Yue, who was standing outside the door, saw him coming out and immediately went to greet him, "Mr. Gu, have you finished asking questions?"

Gu Qinglan: "Chen Yue, go find out what was the cause of the fire in the old city?"

Chen Yue: "Yes, Mr. Gu."

Gu Qinglan: "Also, keep an eye on Lu Ming's every move at all times."

Chen Yue: "I understand, Mr. Gu."

"Then let's review the house now?"

Gu Qinglan paused as she walked down the stairs, "Go to the cemetery first."

Chen Yue was stunned, going to the cemetery?

Gu Family Cemetery

Chen Yue followed Gu Qinglan with flowers in his arms, wondering in his heart that Mr. Gu used to visit the tomb only on Qingming Festival.This year because of my wedding, I came again a few days before the wedding.

Gu Qinglan stood in front of Ruan Qingyun's tombstone, looking at the brand new photo on the tombstone, which was a photo of Ruan Qingyun during his college days, with a smile.

His expression was slightly cold, and the photo he changed into during the Qingming Festival was clearly a home photo of him wearing a cheongsam after marriage.

Chen Yue followed his gaze and saw the problem, and said cautiously: "Mr. Gu, this photo seems to have been changed!"
