Rebirth in the 90s: Melting My Devoted Mr. Iceberg

Chapter 1106: Jiang Xue’s Questions

Feeling Lu Zheng’s ill intentions, Lu Jintian felt a bit guilty. He was indeed a bit wronged, only knowing that Jiang Xue had married, and her husband was a soldier, also from a rural background.

Who could have known that the other party would have such a significant background, that he was actually Mr. Mu’s grandson?

After greeting each other, everyone sat down to chat. Knowing Mu Qiancheng’s identity, Lu Zheng understood why Mr. Mu had suddenly arrived.

He was here to support Mu Qiancheng and Jiang Xue.

After chatting for a while, Lu Zheng let Lu Jintian accompany Mr. Mu and the others, while he took Jiang Xue to the study. He then took out the items that Shangguan You and Jiang Yun had previously left with him, and said, "Xue’er, these things were left for you by your parents. You and Xiaojin each have a share. I gave Xiaojin his share long ago, and these are yours. Take them with you when you leave."

Jiang Xue was stunned, looking at Lu Zheng. The boxes he took out were expensive, even the packaging was so valuable, let alone the items inside.

However, she was a bit puzzled as to why her parents’ items were left with Lu Zheng. Could it be that they had already foreseen their own calamity?

As she was thinking, she heard Lu Zheng speak up, saying, "Xue’er, don’t doubt it. These are indeed your parents’ things left for you. Back then, along with these items, there was also a letter. If you don’t believe me, I can show you the letter."

"Uncle Lu, there’s no need." Jiang Xue shook her head, trusting that Lu Zheng wouldn’t deceive her. She just hadn’t expected her parents to leave her a whole box of things.

"Open it and take a look!" Lu Zheng said with a smile, gesturing for Jiang Xue to open the box. Jiang Xue nodded, then gently opened the box. As the box opened, a dazzling light shot out.

The box was filled entirely with gems—red, green, blue, purple, all sorts of colors.

"What?" Jiang Xue was a bit at a loss. All these gems were hers, she had really struck it rich.

"Do you like it?" Lu Zheng smiled and then said to Jiang Xue, "These are your parents’ belongings left for you, take good care of them."

"Uncle Lu, I understand, thank you!" Jiang Xue closed the box and then sincerely thanked Lu Zheng.

After all these years, he hadn’t touched these things, no wonder their parents entrusted their siblings to him.

However, Jiang Xue was a bit puzzled as to why Lu Zheng only took her brother and not her back then. If Lu Zheng had taken her away too, would her fate in the previous life have been different?

Jiang Xue, being someone who couldn’t keep things to herself, directly asked as she thought, "Uncle Lu, I have a question I want to ask you."

"If you have something to say, just ask!" Lu Zheng kind of understood what Jiang Xue wanted to ask and nodded.

"Uncle Lu, why didn’t you take me along back then?"

"I knew you’d ask this." Uncle Lu had an ’I knew it’ look and said, "Xue’er, it’s a long story. Let me put it briefly."

"Back then, the world was in chaos, and I just happened to be hiding to escape calamity. When I returned and saw the letter from your mother, I rushed over, but it was still too late. Your mother had already met with an accident, and you and your brother were nowhere to be found."

"Later, after many inquiries, I found your brother’s whereabouts, and went looking for him. However, I discovered your brother was thrown under a bridge and was barely alive. If I had been a bit later, your brother would not have survived."
