Chapter 863: Sudden Explosion

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

Xiang Shaoqing released a powerful aura with the intention of using it to suppress Lu Jingye.

However, he did not expect that Lu Jingye, who always appeared gentle and polite, would possess an even stronger aura than him.

Lu Jingye’s aura was so powerful that Xiang Shaoqing’s men did not dare to make a move at all.

In particular, Lu Jingye’s bodyguards just so happened to make their appearance.

“Second Young Master Lu, you’re being so uncooperative. Could it be that there’s really something strange in your courtyard?”

“Whether there is anything strange or not, you can act as you please after taking out a search warrant.”

“You are obstructing our work. In the event that the terrorist escapes because of your uncooperative behavior, can you afford to bear the responsibility?”

“How is Mr. Xiang so sure that the terrorist is in my house? Did you see them coming inside?”

“…”

How could Xiang Shaoqing possibly win against Lu Jingye in a battle of words?

Lu Jingye added and said, “If Mr. Xiang is worried, you can have my house surrounded first, then have someone deliver the search warrant… Mr. Xiang should have forgotten, but the Marshal has said before that those who have made contributions to the country must be respected.

“Also, we are from the Lu Family. Do you think you have the ability to search my house with your level of authority?”

Lu Jingye’s tone of voice sounded serious, but every single point he mentioned was full of reason. Mr. Xiang’s subordinates who came in together with him could not help but start getting worried.

When Xiang Shaoqing came over to search, how could he have thought of so many things in advance? Now that Lu Jingye had brought them up, he could not help but stiffen for a second. The higher-ups had ordered him to search through Lu Jingye’s house and he had done what he had been ordered to do.

For a moment, he was put on the spot.

Lu Jingye looked at Xiang Shaoqing’s expression and his lips were in a straight line.

Both of them continued this stalemate.

In the end, it was Xiang Shaoqing who looked away first as he took out his phone and headed outside.

Xiang Shaoqing’s subordinates saw that their boss had walked away and they looked at each other, not knowing if they should follow him out.

Xiang Shaoqing’s loud voice soon sounded from the outside. He informed the situation here to the party over the phone and replied, “Yes.”

Following that, he hung up the phone and came back in.

After making his way inside, he looked at Lu Jingye and said, “The search warrant will be sent over right away.”

Following that, he pointed to a few of his subordinates. “You shall stay here and keep guard.”

Subsequently, he led the other half of this group of his subordinates away and left.

When Xiang Shaoqing came back, his expression looked even worse. Evidently, he did not manage to find any suspicious individuals.

He took out the search warrant and passed it to Lu Jingye. Just as he was about to speak, several cars suddenly parked outside.

Lu Jingye and Xiang Shaoqing looked over at the same time.

In the next second, Xiang Shaoqing stiffened and he hastily saluted the two individuals making their way over.

“Mr. Huang, Mr. Lu.”

Lu Jianlin took a glance at Xiang Shaoqing and asked, “You’re planning to search through here?”

Xiang Shaoqing straightened his back and answered loudly, “Yes. A big explosion went off in the vicinity and the preliminary judgment is that it was caused by terrorists. I am responsible for searching all the nearby residences.”

Lu Jianlin nodded his head and asked, “Have you searched through the other residences?”

“Yes. We did not find any suspicious individuals.”

Lu Jianlin and Mr. Huang made eye contact and Mr. Huang asked, “You suspect that those terrorists have entered Little Lu’s house?”

“We cannot rule out this possibility.” Xiang Shaoqing looked at Lu Jingye with a sharp gaze. “However, Second Young Master Lu is not cooperating with our search.”

“Did you bring a search warrant when you came to search?”

“…”

“Little Lu and his wife have contributed to the country and even if your boss came, they are not allowed to search at random either.”

After Mr. Huang said that, he reached out his hand. “Give me the search warrant.”

Xiang Shaoqing hastily handed the search warrant to him.

After Mr. Huang took a look, he spoke to the adjutant behind him. “Bring some men to watch over Little Xiang’s men searching the place. I heard that there are many collections of Little Zi’s and all of them are extremely valuable. If there are any damages, compensate them accordingly to the price.”

“Yes.”

Following that, Xiang Shaoqing led his subordinates to search through the courtyard while enduring his anger.

Lu Jianlin looked at the group of people working from the front yard to the back yard and whispered to Lu Jingye, “Where’s Little Zi?”

“In the research lab.”

Lu Jianlin furrowed his brows.

The lab here cannot be known by other people. He wanted to head over but Lu Jingye stopped him.

“Father, don’t worry. They won’t be able to find the entrance.”

Only then did Lu Jianlin breathe a sigh of relief.

Just then, Lu Jingye turned around and walked away. These people could search for all they like, but they are not allowed to go into their bedroom.

Lu Jianlin and Mr. Huang also followed behind.

Sure enough, after Xiang Shaoqing led his subordinates to search through the backyard and the first floor, he was about to bring his men up to the second floor.

“Hold on.”

Lu Jingye said, “You can only search upstairs alone.”

Xiang Shaoqing thought for a moment and nodded his head.

Even though he had a search warrant, with Second Master Lu and Mr. Huang around, obviously he did not dare go too far.

Lu Jingye brought him upstairs.

The villa was originally a copy of ancient designs and the furniture inside was so expensive that ordinary people were unable to afford it.

After they went upstairs, the floor was covered in cashmere carpet and famous paintings were hung on the walls.

Xiang Shaoqingknew that Lu Jingye was good at making money. To him, money was only a number. However, when he came up to the second floor, he was still shocked by the low-key splendor.

If it was an ordinary person, they would definitely start hating on the rich.

Lu Jingye opened the rooms one by one for him to search.

When they arrived at the door to the study room, Lu Jingye said, “This is my office where I usually work. Mr. Xiang can go ahead and search, but you had better not take a look at the documents and data inside.”

Xiang Shaoqing looked at him with a taut expression and said, “Rest assured. I won’t reveal anything that does not belong to terrorists.”

“That had better be the case.”

Lu Jingye opened the door and went in after saying that.

Xiang Shaoqing followed him inside and searched around. There were indeed many documents and files. Xiang Shaoqing only glanced through them and looked away.

After he finished checking, only the last room was left.

When they stood outside the room, he motioned to Lu Jingye. “Second Young Master Lu, go ahead and open the door.”

“This is mine and my wife’s bedroom.” Lu Jingye narrowed his eyes, but his tone of voice sounded very peaceful. “Yiyi is sleeping right now and if Mr. Xiang dares to even take a peek, you had better be prepared to get carried out.”

Xiang Shaoqing clenched his fists. He originally wanted to say that he must look through everything, but his reasoning told him that he would not be able to bear the consequences if he did that.

Just as Xiang Shaoqing’s complexion was alternating between red and green, the room to the bedroom was opened and Zi Yi’s head popped out.

She looked at the man standing outside and she widened her eyes. “Ah Jing, who is he? Why did he come upstairs?”

“There was an explosion nearby earlier. He came to our house to do a search.”

“What is he searching for?”

“Terrorists.”

“Hmph!” Zi Yi’s expression turned cold and she opened the door as she came out.

Xiang Shaoqing stared at Zi Yi.

Zi Yi tapped on her wrist watch and a virtual screen appeared in front of her. Tons of images were flashing past the screen rapidly.

Following that, she said, “This is the surveillance near our house. There wasn’t anyone approaching before or after the explosion. You had better take a look.”

Xiang Shaoqing hastily looked at the virtual screen.
