Illegitimate daughter?
Upon hearing this, Lu Ye’s eyes narrowed slightly, his profound phoenix eyes dark and seemingly bottomless.
No wonder her eyes were so red that night she saw the child.
No wonder the child kept insisting she was Lin Wu.
In that moment.
Lu Ye felt as if he saw himself at three years old.
On that stormy night, he was cast out by the Su Family…
No one knew what a three-year-old child had gone through.
“Eldest Daughter of the Zhang Family?” Lu Ye looked up at Heizi, his deep voice wrapped in a chill, “If I remember correctly, the Eldest Daughter of the Zhang Family is only seventeen, right?”
Yet the child is already eighteen.
Whose eldest daughter is younger than their illegitimate child?
Heizi was taken aback.
Could it be that the boss was angry?

Why was the boss angry?
Because he called Lin Wu an illegitimate daughter?
Having followed the boss for so long, this was the first time he saw him so protective of a young girl.
Heizi immediately corrected himself, “Actually, Lin Wu’s birth mother Lin Guixiang was the original spouse, but the Zhang Family refuses to acknowledge their marriage… Over time, Lin Guixiang, who stood alone in a ‘cold kiln’ for eighteen years like Wang Baochuan, became branded as the third party who destroyed another’s marriage.”
Because Lin Guixiang had no social status, she went from being the victim to the mistress.
And the real mistress became the glamorous Mrs. Zhang.
History is rewritten by the victors.
Xue Jinghao squinted his eyes, “Analyzing it this way, Sister Lin probably isn’t Dr. M either.”
Heizi nodded, “Mhm.”
But considering her age, Lin Wu couldn’t possibly be Dr. M.
Yet Lu Ye insisted on investigating her.
For a brief moment, Lu Ye turned his gaze to Heizi, “Put Dr. M’s matter aside for now, and focus on W from today.”
They had been searching for Dr. M for a long time.
This was a marathon, requiring a steady and gradual approach.
W?
Heizi asked, “Boss, are you talking about the developer of Ghost Path?”
“Yes,” Lu Ye nodded slightly.
Upon hearing this, Xue Jinghao looked towards Lu Ye, “Third Brother, hasn’t Hailun contacted W yet?”
Lu Ye shook his head, “W hasn’t been online for almost a week now.”
Xue Jinghao’s eyes widened.
Ghost Path has now swept across the entire international market.
The total number of downloads has exceeded 15 million.
It even made it to the Global Daily.
If it were someone else, they would have probably appeared at various events by now.
But there hasn’t been any news from W.
Isn’t this person too low-profile?
Lu Ye turned to Heizi, “From today onward, you handle W’s affairs. Find a way to set up a meeting between him and me.”
This person was undoubtedly the gaming industry’s biggest dark horse in the past thirty years.
Lu Ye valued talent and was keen to cherish it.
Heizi nodded, “Understood, boss.”
Xue Jinghao curiously asked, “Third Brother, do you think W is a male or a female?”
Lu Ye’s phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, “Based on W’s style of action and the meticulousness of their logical thinking, it should be a girl.”
He had played Ghost Path himself and was so immersed in the story that it took him an entire day to complete it.
“A girl?”
At these words, both Xue Jinghao and Heizi were surprised.
In the gaming industry, males tended to have a higher sensitivity than females, which is why the more well-known game developers are male.
Without exception.
So W must be a male.
Xue Jinghao squinted his eyes, “Third Brother, could you be mistaken?”
Lu Ye’s voice was low, “I shouldn’t be.”
Although males are typically more attuned to gaming, there are always exceptions.
Instinct told Lu Ye.
W was very likely a girl.
Xue Jinghao frowned slightly, not quite agreeing with Lu Ye’s opinion.
How could a girl make such an impressive game?
He continued, “Third Brother, how old do you think W is then?”
“Between 30 to 50,” Lu Ye replied.
Xue Jinghao nodded, the age did match what was analyzed online.
Because people with shallow experience simply can’t create such games.
Contemporary society.
What young person in their teens or twenties has such experience?
In a moment, Lu Ye stood up from the stool. “I have to go back for dinner tonight; you stay here in the afternoon.”
“Okay,” Xue Jinghao nodded.
After all, he had become quite skilled at fixing cars by now.
——
Lin Wu, carrying a bunch of lotuses, rode out of the flower market on her bicycle.
A single bunch of lotuses, of course, is not enough to make Lotus Dew; she intended it as a decorative item for her home.
For the lotuses and other plants like Rhodiola that were used in skincare products, she had already arranged with the shopkeeper to have them delivered directly to South Street.
Lin Wu wore an immaculate white dress, the hem floating in the breeze, making her appear like a deity descending to earth, causing passersby to turn their heads.
Qin Fengyang was coming back from cram school when he saw this scene with a slight lift of his eyes.
The dry and boring high school curriculum faded into the background as the sight of the girl riding her bike entered his view, injecting vibrant colors into his monochromatic world, and he couldn’t help but become somewhat captivated.
Li Cheng, curious, followed Qin Fengyang’s gaze. “Qin Big Shot, do you know her?”
Qin Fengyang’s thoughts were snapped back to reality in an instant. He was about to say he knew her but then remembered his mother’s warning and remained silent.
Lin Wu was no longer attending school.
He was a top student at Qingzhong School.
He couldn’t afford to get involved with a girl who had dropped out.
Birds of a feather flock together.
It would impact his image too much.
Another female classmate chuckled, “That girl looks like she’s already dropped out of school. How could Qin Big Shot possibly know someone like her!”
Beautiful girls drop out early.
Hearing this, Qin Fengyang nodded, “Indeed, I don’t know her.”
As they spoke, the girl’s bicycle-riding figure disappeared from view.
Click.
At that moment.
A crisp sound echoed in the air.
Then, suddenly, Lin Wu’s bicycle wheel stopped spinning.
She frowned slightly and dismounted to check.
That’s when she discovered the bicycle chain had snapped.
What to do?
Nowadays, the streets were full of shops repairing electric bikes; there weren’t many places that fixed bicycles…
Lu Ye was just passing Wutong Avenue on his way back from the repair shop.
Although it was just a fleeting glance.
He still noticed the kid.
The girl was squatting on the ground, her beautiful brows lightly furrowed, inviting the urge to smooth them out.
Lu Ye squeezed the brakes.
Sst—
The next second, his bike stopped next to Lin Wu. “Kid.”
Upon hearing him, Lin Wu looked up slightly.
With one foot on the ground, the first thing she saw was his long leg; following the contour upward was a chiseled jawline, a pronounced nose, slightly pursed thin lips, and a pair of exquisite phoenix eyes slightly upturned, their dark depths seemingly drawing one in.
“Mr. Lu.”
“Need help?” continued Lu Ye.
Lin Wu had just been worrying about how to get her bike back home when this repairman’s arrival was like a timely rainstorm.
“I do,” Lin Wu nodded slightly, “It seems the bike chain is broken.”
The young miss wasn’t being polite at all.
Lu Ye raised his eyebrows slightly, parked his bike on the side of the road, came next to Lin Wu, and observed the chain.
After a moment, he parted his thin lips, “No big problem, give me three minutes.”
There’s a specialist for everything.
In less than three minutes, Lu Ye had fixed the broken bike chain. He lifted the rear wheel and spun the pedals with his hand.
Whirr—
The wheel suspended in air began to spin quickly.
“Amazing!” Lin Wu broke into a smile. “How much do I owe you?”
“Just a simple gesture,” Lu Ye dusted off his hands, “free of charge.”
He had just gone bankrupt, he was already in such straits, where could Lin Wu have the heart to take advantage of him? She pulled out ten yuan from her pocket and stuffed it into Lu Ye’s hand, “Mr. Lu, business is business, I insist on paying.”
Lu Ye didn’t refuse. “I’m Lu Ye, kid you can call me by my name in the future.”
Whirr.
Just then, a car passed loudly by them, nearly drowning out Lu Ye’s words.
Lin Wu, not quite hearing clearly, asked, “Lu Tie?”
Lu Ye was about to clarify when Lin Wu’s eyes curved into a smile, “Then from now on I’ll call you Old Iron, okay?”
