"See, I told you my brother is reliable! He gets things done!"
A soft smile gradually spread across Lin Mei's rigid face.
"Didn't you hear what my brother said that day?"
Lu Feng had indeed heard.
His memory was already much better than that of ordinary people.
How could he forget?
However, he still felt some worry.
But with that crisp sound, his worries vanished in an instant.
"Master Wang, thank you. You've helped us a great deal."
It was now just before half-past ten.
There were still two hours before twelve o'clock.
These two hours were more than enough to make arrangements.
Lin Mei was about to thank Master Wang properly.
She walked towards the table as she spoke.
However, Master Wang froze on the spot.
As if frozen by an extreme cold current, he remained completely still.
"What's wrong, Master Wang?"
Lin Mei couldn't help but feel puzzled. She thought, 'Didn't he open the box? Why is he making that face?'
While she was wondering,
Master Wang turned to look at Lin Mei.
His face instantly turned pale, and his voice began to tremble.
"Miss Lin, this, this..."
Lu Feng felt a sense of curiosity.
Hearing this, he quickly followed.
At that very moment, as his gaze fell upon the box,
His face, which still held a glimmer of hope, turned completely ashen.
"Master Wang, what is this!"
Lu Feng maintained basic politeness at this moment.
On the box, the self-destruct device, which had displayed the number two, had now turned a鲜红 (xiān hóng - bright red) '1'.
This clearly meant that the previous action had used up one of the remaining two chances.
Lu Feng's anxiety turned into displeasure.
If it weren't for the fact that this person was brought by Lin Mei,
He would have pushed him away long ago.
The elderly Master Wang raised his head and glanced at Lu Feng.
That last action had made him falter.
Although he had opened many locks, the lock before him was clearly not as easy as he had imagined.
Whether this thing could be opened,
Honestly, this person had no confidence at all.
However, this person had already received money from Lin Feng.
It wouldn't do to leave without showing any skill.
Therefore, after a moment's pause, Master Wang continued, "Miss Lin, I was flustered just now, it's alright, I'll continue. I'll continue!"
With that, he began to examine the object meticulously once more.
"Is this person really capable?"
Lu Feng couldn't help but ask again.
At first, Lin Mei had been full of confidence in this person, but now, after that incident,
Her inner certainty had begun to waver.
"Lu Feng, what do you suggest we do then!"
Lu Feng didn't answer. His mind was racing.
If Song Fei had intentionally revealed the password information for the box to Chen Qingyue, then it must be numbers that both of them knew.
What could it be!
Suddenly, a flash of bright white light streaked through Lu Feng's mind.
Could it be?
With this thought, Lu Feng quickly approached Chen Qingyue again.
"Mr. Lu, is something wrong?"
Chen Qingyue noticed Lu Feng and asked. She wondered what Lu Feng was doing.
Lu Feng said calmly.
"By the way, do you remember which day you separated from your father?"
"Of course, I remember."
The scene of Chen Qingyue separating from Lu Feng,
Even after so many years, it was still vivid in her memory.
"But Mr. Lu, why are you asking this?"
Lu Feng didn't answer. Instead, he directly asked, "The date!"
Although Chen Qingyue didn't quite understand what Lu Feng meant,
Seeing Lu Feng's determined expression,
She recounted it truthfully.
Upon hearing this, Lu Feng's gaze shifted back to the table.
But at this very moment,
Lu Feng's furrowed brow seemed to be struck by electricity.
At the same time, Lu Feng couldn't help but think,
"What is Master Wang doing!"
He had always felt that this person was acting strangely.
And now, he had seen it.
Although Lu Feng didn't know how to pick locks,
Locksmiths generally wouldn't start with the password, would they?
Otherwise, it would mean this person's skills were very basic.
This Master Wang,
Clearly, he wasn't that kind of person.
Therefore, there was only one other possibility.
This person was doing it intentionally.
"Master Wang, what are you doing?"
As expected, with this question,
Master Wang's whole body began to tremble.
"Oh. Nothing, nothing, I'm just looking at the password, aren't I?"
As Master Wang spoke, he was about to manipulate the password.
Just as his hand was about to touch the mechanical password device,
*Snap!*
A cold sound suddenly erupted.
At the same time, Lu Feng's hand firmly gripped the man's wrist.
"Don't move!"
"Hey, what are you doing!" Master Wang's eyes widened in surprise, as if they were about to pop out of their sockets.
Before Lu Feng could say anything more,
The man's expression clearly became flustered.
"Miss Lin, who is this person, what is he doing?"
Hearing this, Lu Feng's judgment was confirmed.
Although he wasn't sure what this person was here for,
He was certain that this person harbored ill intentions.
"What did I say? Why are you panicking?"
"I!" Master Wang's face instantly became unnatural.
The man was suddenly embarrassed. After a moment, he regained his voice.
"Miss Lin, I'm not doing this anymore, I'm not doing it. This combination lock, I'm telling you, it can't be opened. You, you're playing me!"
Before Master Wang could finish speaking, he wrenched his arm free from Lu Feng's grip.
Then, with an angry expression, he quickly hurried downstairs.
However, after he disappeared beyond the corner of the courtyard,
The anger and displeasure that had been lingering on his face turned into two cold laughs.
Seeing Master Wang leave, Lin Mei's eyes towards Lu Feng held even greater apprehension.
"Lu Feng, what was that about?"
She had gone to great lengths to find this person.
And now, Lu Feng had driven him away.
Forgive her for not being able to understand.
"Lu Feng, this person's temper is indeed strange sometimes, but aren't we in need of his help right now? Don't you act like this sometimes too?"
Lin Mei was truly a little displeased this time!
However, Lu Feng did not offer any explanation at this moment.
"Lin Mei, this person is not as simple as he seems! You must guard against others."
Hearing this, Lin Mei's brow furrowed even deeper.
"Lu Feng, what do you mean by that? Are you suspecting my brother? How could he possibly do that?"
This person was contacted by Lin Feng himself.
Didn't this imply that Lin Feng had a problem?
Lu Feng remained silent.
At this moment, these were not the main points at all.
Lin Feng would not intentionally harm him.
But this Master Wang, it was hard to say.
Furthermore, Lu Feng was currently weighing his options.
Whether Song Fei would actually reveal this password to Chen Qingyue.
And what was Song Fei's intention in saying those words to Chen Qingyue, whether it was referring to this password.
