My Billionaire Husband Claimed Me His Precious-Chapter 849 - 768: Confrontation

Following the lead that Lu Qing had given earlier, he quickly identified the discrepancies, uncovering two additional points of doubt, which excited him immensely.

"Mr. Lu, Mr. Lu!" 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

Lu Xing stood with his back to the office door, watching the night fall outside. He turned, somewhat weary, to look at the person who barged in noisily and asked, "What is it?"

"Mr. Lu is truly remarkable. Changing the way of thinking and approach really makes everything different."

Upon hearing the assistant’s words, Lu Qing’s expression changed momentarily. He hurriedly snatched the documents from the assistant’s hand and reviewed them carefully from the beginning.

"Two points are particularly puzzling. First, why did he not notice the money in the account for several days even though it was traced to an overseas account? Even if the account is not closed, the exact location can’t be determined. The fact that the other party hastily closed the account must mean they are deliberately hiding something. Second, I don’t know what you think, Mr. Lu, but I found out..."

"You discovered that he didn’t modify a single line of the proposal and appeared completely unaware of the final plan," Lu Qing said, his face turning grim. "That’s because he hasn’t seen the previous proposal at all—what I gave him to look at was an abbreviated version with no details."

The assistant nodded anxiously and replied, "The proposal they presented that day was identical, which made me suspect at the time that the leak wasn’t just his problem alone."

"You’re suspecting there’s another insider?" Lu Qing asked.

The assistant frowned in contemplation. "It’s not that I suspect it. Mr. Lu, you’ve been suspicious all along, right? We initially thought the plan itself was leaked, but thinking back, it must have been a copy of the proposal that was leaked."

"You’re absolutely right; the leak was indeed from a copied proposal."

Although some matters were not as simple as they seemed, the events had indeed transpired. Therefore, Lu Qing harbored a hidden worry in his heart: even if this matter reached the Old Master’s ears, it wouldn’t prompt him to deliberately find someone suitable to take his place.

"Unless..."

"Unless too busy?"

Seeing Lu Qing’s surprised expression, the assistant added suddenly.

Lu Qing vaguely sensed a threat, but he couldn’t determine who the opponent was. By the time the truth came to light, it would likely coincide with his grandfather’s orders arriving.

"Not a word of this to the Old Master. If he finds out, I’ll have words with you."

"Yes, Mr. Lu. I promise to keep my mouth shut whenever I see the Old Master from today onwards."

Lu Qing began to worry that his grandfather might suddenly mention finding someone suitable and trustworthy, and ideally, someone with connections to the Lu Family. Instinctively, he thought of Lu Xing.

"Grandfather isn’t planning to let Lu Xing join the company, is he?"

A shadow was cast over Lu Qing’s heart.

It was three days later when Lu Xing appeared again at the Lu Family’s old house.

During those three days, many events and changes occurred. These happenings and changes compelled him to quicken his pace, hoping that decisions could be made sooner.

"Grandfather, I hope you aren’t upset that I came without prior notice?"

Seeing Lu Xing smiling cheerfully, Old Master Lu wouldn’t consider asking him to leave even if he wasn’t particularly pleased. He patted the sofa beside him and said, "Come sit here."

Lu Xing’s face showed clear surprise and excitement as he carefully walked over.
