2196 How Is This a Fire Pit?

"But as his assistant, I won't be able to access those top-secret things. I won't be able to collect evidence, and my elder brother will have to stay inside the entire time," Jiang Yujie said. "It has already been a year since the incident happened. I am afraid that as time drags on, I won't be able to find any evidence anymore.

"I want to get my elder brother out and make Lu Qiyuan receive his due punishment," Jiang Yujie said with her eyes reddened. "I want to bring evidence to appeal my elder brother's case and seek justice for him!"

Lu Man then understood how Lu Qiyuan could still survive until now even under Han Zhuoli's pressure.

So it was all because of that project.

"I really have no other choice, so I came to look for you. You are his daughter, so you must know what kind of woman he likes. I want to be the woman closest to him and make him have no reservations against me. Then I can obtain the evidence.

"And, to be honest, even if I don't say it, you can guess as well. I'm thinking about how Xia Qingyang and Lu Qi had harmed you and your mother so badly. You definitely won't want to let them have a good life. So, by doing this, I can also help you harm Xia Qingyang and Lu Qi along the way," Jiang Yujie said truthfully.

She was right in saying this.

Because Lu Man could indeed guess.

It was precisely because Jiang Yujie was so frank about it that Lu Man liked her even more.

Lu Man did not agree with Jiang Yujie's methods.

So at the time, she said, "If you want to find evidence, I can help you. Why must you sacrifice yourself?

"You are a good lady. If your elder brother found out, he would not want you doing this as well. You have a great future ahead of you, so why… why do you have to make it hard on yourself by suffering a man like Lu Qiyuan? You can find a better boyfriend and live your life properly with him. You have a very long life ahead of you, so don't sacrifice yourself just to take revenge on Lu Qiyuan. This is the most foolish thing to do," Lu Man said.

"And Xia Qingyang is a person with no morals. The moment you do this, she will definitely think of ways to take revenge on you and smear your reputation. Even if you succeeded in taking revenge and saving your elder brother, your life in the future might not be easy at all."

"I'm not afraid," Jiang Yujie said resolutely. "I am very thankful that you are willing to help me. But I won't get my reward if it's not deserved. I can't accept your help without doing anything. And how are you supposed to help? You're not at the Lu Corporation. Even if you ask Young Master Han to help investigate, this kind of top-secret matter has to be tackled from Lu Qiyuan's end. It will be very difficult to find anything from investigations.

"You two won't be by his side and would be very far away from him. If you want to investigate that, you'd have to expend a huge amount of manpower, material resources, and financial resources. I don't know how much exactly is needed, but I know I definitely won't be able to repay that, so I won't be able to accept that help.

"I am not related to you or to Young Master Han. Why should you both help me like this? I can't cross my conscience on this too. I can't possibly let you both put in so much effort for an unrelated person like me. To me, this is also a form of pressure. This is my family matter, I will resolve it myself. As long as you can help me a little, I will be very grateful."

But Lu Man could not get over her own conscience. "Even if we are not related, I would rather help you like this than see you jump into a fire pit by yourself."

"How is this a fire pit?" Jiang Yujie smiled and said, "I am willing to do this. Anyway, if I'm with Lu Qiyuan, he won't treat me badly. My life will become much better than it is now. Everything has pros and cons. I've thought very clearly about it."
