Chapter 236 The target of the mission forced the host to love 22
This answer was also within his expectations, so Chu Linyan did not have any obvious reaction.
He regained consciousness and turned his attention to the video being played.
There are probably only four or five people appearing in this picture.
The two most important ones were people he knew.
The one who is obviously in a dominant position is Lu Huaiyuan's assistant.
As for the other one, the one who was pinned down by the crowd was the waiter who had drugged him at the banquet.
Chu Linyan had some guesses in his mind as to why this group of people gathered together.
But he didn't say anything, just looked at the phone screen silently, watching the video inside.
Chu Linyan lowered his head slightly, but Lu Zeyuan, who was sitting opposite him, kept his eyes on him.
Lu Zeyuan stared at Chu Linyan without blinking, as if he wanted to see how he would react.
But unfortunately, he was disappointed.
Chu Linyan looked calm, just staring at his phone quietly from beginning to end, without any change in his expression.
It was as if all of this had nothing to do with him.
-----------------
Chu Linyan just watched.
He didn't raise his head until the video was completely finished.
Chu Linyan looked at the person in front of him with a light tone.
"So, what do you mean by showing me this?"
Just now, the moment he looked up, Lu Zeyuan had already restrained his emotions and returned to his usual carefree and unrestrained self.
He shrugged nonchalantly and said casually, "I accidentally got such a 'good thing'. Can't I show it to you?"
"Why, do you doubt me?"
Lu Zeyuan raised his chin towards Chu Linyan and said in a somewhat provocative tone, "I'm doing this out of pure kindness. I saved it especially for you to see."
"Chu Xiaoyan, please don't do that. You don't know how to appreciate a good person."
Chu Linyan ignored him and asked, "Did you take this video?"
"Yes."
Lu Zeyuan nodded and explained, "I went out earlier and accidentally ran into my brother's assistant, Xiao Chen."
"Seeing he brought so many people with him, I followed him out of curiosity. Who would have thought I would see these? But I just took some photos."
He said it casually, as if doing this was as easy as drinking water and eating.
Chu Linyan frowned slightly and couldn't help asking, "Did you really just take this photo casually?"
Hearing this, Lu Zeyuan looked up and glared at him.
"Chu Xiaoyan, you little brat, you're becoming less and less cute as you grow older."
He paused, then said confidently, "I said I just took the photo casually, that's what I said. Why are you taking it so seriously?"
"At such a young age, he acts like an old-fashioned person and doesn't know how to adapt."
Could he say that they took the photo and showed it to him eagerly because they heard them mention Chu Linyan?
Doesn't he want to save face?
Lu Zeyuan thought so and glared at the person opposite him.
Chu Linyan saw through his hidden meaning and couldn't help but smile, but he had no intention of exposing the other party.
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Lu Zeyuan asked, "Chu Xiaoyan, what they said can't be true, right?"
He pursed his lips, hesitant.
"He... really drugged you?"
Hearing him ask this, Chu Linyan's eyes turned slightly, but he did not deny it.
After receiving such an answer, Lu Zeyuan slammed the table and was extremely angry.
"Fuck!" he cursed, "How dare this bastard!"
"If I had known earlier, I should have gone up and given him a good beating."
Lu Zeyuan grew angrier as he spoke, gritting his teeth as he said, "He'd better pray he doesn't fall into my hands, or I'll skin him alive."
Compared to his excitement, Chu Linyan still looked calm and composed.
He glanced at the angry young man in front of him and said, "He didn't offend you, why are you so angry?"
Lu Zeyuan: "He didn't offend me, but it's not okay for him to target you."
"You have lived in the Lu family for such a long time, you have already become a member of the Lu family."
He gritted his teeth and continued, "If he dares to attack you, it means he doesn't take the Lu family seriously."
"Chu Xiaoyan, don't worry, your family will definitely give you an explanation for this matter. My eldest brother also..."
Lu Zeyuan stopped talking abruptly, perhaps because he was thinking of something.
He looked at Chu Linyan and said hesitantly: "Um, Chu Xiaoyan, video it, this..."
Seeing his flickering eyes, Chu Linyan asked directly, "So, Lu Zeyuan, do you think this video is real? Do you believe that Brother Yuan did this?"
Lu Zeyuan quickly waved his hands: "How is that possible? Don't talk nonsense."
“It must be this video…”
As he spoke, he fell into a rare silence.
Lu Zeyuan thought that he had filmed the video and had seen the scenes in it with his own eyes, so for a moment he didn't know how to defend himself.
He thought for a long time, and finally said: "Anyway, it's impossible for my brother to do this. He is not that kind of person."
Chu Linyan did not say anything, but just looked at the person in front of him quietly, not knowing what he was thinking.
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Lu Zeyuan couldn't help but feel anxious.
He approached Chu Linyan and whispered, "Chu Xiaoyan, you are not doubting my brother, are you?"
"I tell you, he really..."
Chu Linyan didn't expect that this person would suddenly come so close to him, and he couldn't help feeling a little unhappy.
He simply reached out his hand and pushed the person away.
"Just talk, why are you getting so close to me?"
Lu Zeyuan didn't care about his reaction. He just shrugged and said, "I'm not afraid that you'll be embarrassed to say it."
"You really don't know how to appreciate kindness."
Chu Linyan glared at him and felt speechless.
Lu Zeyuan leaned back, his attitude casual: "So, Chu Xiaoyan, what do you think? Tell me."
Chu Linyan wanted to say "What's it to you?", but when the words came to his lips, he couldn't help but pause.
His eyes moved slightly, and he said, "Whether I believe him or doubt him, what does it have to do with you?"
"Besides, didn't you hand this evidence to me? Are you going to deny it now?"
Lu Zeyuan choked: "......"
Speechless!
He gritted his teeth and pulled a fake smile from the corner of his mouth: "Chu Xiaoyan, you are really good."
"So now, I'm neither here nor there, right?"
Chu Linyan smiled at him politely: "I didn't say that, you can't blame me."
Lu Zeyuan was furious: "Why didn't I realize before that you are so shameless?"
Chu Linyan raised his eyebrows: "Thank you for the compliment."
As he spoke, he pushed the phone back in front of Lu Zeyuan and added, "Also, thank you for the video."
"But I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
After he finished speaking, Chu Linyan stood up and prepared to leave.
But the moment he turned around, he heard Lu Zeyuan say, "I will keep what happened today a secret for you."
"As for this matter, don't worry, I will help you continue to investigate."
Chu Linyan paused, but did not turn around. He just said, "Thank you for your trouble."
Lu Zeyuan: "You're welcome."
After he finished speaking, Chu Linyan did not stay any longer, but left directly.
Lu Zeyuan sat there, staring at the departing figure with an ambiguous expression.
Lu Zeyuan didn't look away until Chu Linyan's figure disappeared from his sight.
His fingers stroked the rim of the cup, wondering what he was thinking.
After a moment, Lu Zeyuan put away his phone and stood up to leave.
