The Magnificent Son-in-law

Chapter 258: The Omnipotent Lu Yao


Outside the door, everyone looked at Lin Jiaxuan.

Because among the people present, she had known the little girl the longest and was often with her, so everyone naturally assumed that if anyone could persuade the little girl, it would be Lin Jiaxuan.

Lin Jiaxuan exhaled and continued patiently persuading, "Shihan, although it's good to think twice before acting, some things aren't suitable for thinking through alone. If you really encounter any difficulties, why not talk about it, and we'll all figure out a solution together.

Even three clumsy people can have the wisdom of Zhuge Liang. I, sister, Lu Yao, and Xiuxiu will all help you come up with a plan."

Inside the door, there was no sound for a long while.

At this moment, Lin Zhiyan stepped forward and knocked on the door, "Shihan, are you ignoring your master's words now? Open the door. If you're really wronged, I'll risk my life to help you out!"

Her words were forceful and indeed carried a sense of masterly authority.

A moment later, with a "click," the door lock was opened.

Everyone outside rushed in and saw that the little girl had washed her face and was not as defeated or inclined to take extreme actions as they had imagined, which made them all breathe a sigh of relief.

In fact, Lin Zhiyan agreed with Wang Lubo's assumptions.

She had personally trained the little girl, so she knew her skills better than anyone else. Not to mention dealing with some thugs; even if she met someone who had trained properly, she could still put up a fight.

Therefore, the only one who could bully her and make her feel wronged must be Xiao Feng, there was no escaping that conclusion.

Sure enough, when the little girl recounted the events, it was not far from Wang Lubo's assumptions.

"Because of this?" Lin Zhiyan scolded in exasperation, "Why are you crying! If he really is the kind of guy who acts on impulse, then he's not worth your tears. Conversely, if he's not like that, you shouldn't be crying at all."

However, even though she understood, the little girl still felt upset. Understanding doesn't make it any easier.

"Shihan, are you sure it was a room card?" Lu Yao asked, frowning. She didn't believe Xiao Feng was someone who would lose control to temptation so easily.

Everyone looked at Lu Yao, their eyes asking: If it wasn't a room card, could it have been a bank card?

Blushing, Lu Yao explained, "That's not what I mean. I mean, if you can remember any distinctive designs on the card, maybe I can find the address."

"Really?" The little girl's eyes lit up, and after trying to recall for a while, she uncertainly said, "I think it was a golden plum blossom."

"Golden plum blossom?" Lu Yao was a bit troubled, "Can you be a bit more specific and describe the design of the plum blossom?"

With that, Lu Yao turned and walked out of the restroom, returning with a tablet and a stylus, "Try to draw it if you can."

The little girl took the tablet and pen and began to think and draw, while Lin Jiaxuan was a bit puzzled, "Is it necessary to go to such lengths? Why don't we just ask him what that card was?"

"It's not that easy," Chen Xiuxiu explained, "Have you ever seen a thief report himself to the police before stealing? Even if you ask him directly, there's no guarantee he'll tell the truth, and even if he does, some things he certainly won't admit to."

Meanwhile, preparations were underway in the restroom for a plan to verify whether Xiao Feng had issues with his morality, waiting for the little girl to draw the design and then identify the target location.

Fifteen minutes later, the little girl handed the tablet to Lu Yao, "This is more or less it, but I didn't get a good look."

Lu Yao took the tablet and then pulled out a laptop from her backpack, her fingers flying over the keyboard. In about ten seconds, images of cards with plum blossom designs appeared on the screen.

"Find the one you saw," Lu Yao said, placing the laptop in front of the little girl.

Chen Xiuxiu looked at Lu Yao in surprise, "I knew you were good with computers, but I didn't realize you were this good."

Lu Yao smiled sheepishly, "It's nothing. It's just a simple search program, and it has its limitations. It can't find everything."

Lin Zhiyan was pensive; despite what Lu Yao said, she couldn't help but want to try to find the young man who once saved her life.

But obviously, this wasn't the right setting to bring it up; it would have to wait for a better opportunity.

Just then, the little girl exclaimed in surprise, "This is it! Lu Yao, you are amazing, absolutely omnipotent!"

With that, she gave Lu Yao a big bear hug.

"Get down first, let me see what card it is." Lu Yao said with a helpless smile.

After another flurry of typing, Lu Yao said solemnly, "Found it. It's a room card for the Howard Johnson chain, and I've checked; there's only one Howard Johnson hotel in Jiangcheng."

Everyone looked at the little girl. Now that they had the location, the next step depended on what she wanted to do.

"I'm going over there to stake it out right now!" The little girl suddenly felt invigorated, clearly determined not to rest until she confronted Xiao Feng.

"I'll go with you," Lu Yao immediately said, then packed the tablet and laptop into her backpack.

Lin Zhiyan, Lin Jiaxuan, and Chen Xiuxiu exchanged glances and said in unison, "Let's all go together then."

A group of them walked out of the restroom, with the air of a valiant women's army.

Chen Xiuxiu called to Wang Lubo, then whispered in his ear.

Wang Lubo put down his chopsticks, forgot about his meal, and said goodbye to Miao Yueqian, "Qianqian, something came up..."

"It's fine, you go ahead," Miao Yueqian replied with a smile, showing no trace of displeasure.

"Everyone, eat and drink to your heart's content. If it's not enough, order more. I'll leave my card at the front desk, and you all carry on." Leaving those words, Wang Lubo hurriedly ran off.

At this moment, everyone suddenly realized that this chubby Wang Lubo wasn't just annoying; sometimes he was actually quite endearing.

Like when he hired cheerleaders during training or insisted on paying for meals.

Meanwhile, Xiao Feng, still house hunting, had no idea a group had already beaten him—possibly even beating Du Linlang—to the Howard Johnson hotel, with one goal in mind: to see if he really had a character defect.

Of course, that was putting it nicely. More bluntly, they were going to catch him in the act!
