Lu Zhan actually left something?
After hearing Xiao Junlan's words, Lu Li was first stunned, then he asked with a bitter smile, "Just for that thing, you old lady wanted to test me?"
This time it was Xiao Junlan's turn to be surprised, "Aren't you at all surprised?"
"Surprised? Why? Someone who can use Dong Qichang's genuine work as a decoration, if they don't have some background, that would be strange."
"You found out long ago?" Xiao Junlan asked helplessly.
Lu Li smiled, "Not really. Recently, I met a few friends in the antiques world. After hearing them talk a lot, I naturally formed my own judgment."
Xiao Junlan looked doubtful upon hearing this, but she didn't continue to press the issue. She continued, "I told you before that your father was very skilled. Once, after getting drunk, he admitted that no one in all of China could withstand his one move."
"Oh?"
Lu Li's heart stirred. One of the few top experts in China, and not too old, could he have reached the peak of innate strength?
Seeing that her son was finally interested, Xiao Junlan felt a bit relieved.
Whether Lu Zhan was alive or dead, he was the man she loved most in her life and the biological father of her son. If her son had no interest in what Lu Zhan left behind, it would be better if they never met. But if they did meet again, given her son's temper, it would be a light matter for them to act like strangers, and they might even fight.
"Xiao Li, actually, when you were hit while saving someone, I was already considering whether to give it to you. According to your father, as long as you follow the secret manual and take the medicine, you can become one of the top experts in China in at most two years."
"Cultivation?"
Lu Li's eyes instantly widened.
He had always been very sensitive to these two words, and even more so now. Given his current desire for cultivation, even if he were in a coma, if someone said these two words in his ear, he would definitely wake up immediately.
Whenever he closed his eyes to meditate, feeling the omnipresent, shockingly dense red dust spiritual energy, his heart felt like it was being scratched by a cat, making him extremely uncomfortable.
However, he couldn't use the cultivation techniques, and the Longhu Sect's techniques were hard to succeed within ten years, so he had never found a suitable method.
After all, he had started practicing the Longhu Sect's techniques from a young age and only broke through to the innate level at the age of twenty-five, enduring countless trials, which showed how difficult it was to enter the innate level.
As the person who knew Lu Li best, Xiao Junlan saw the light in his eyes and smiled, "Your father is not a heartless person. There must have been a reason why he left without saying goodbye!" At this point, her mood became low, and she silently walked towards the parking lot.
Lu Li quickly reacted and hurriedly followed.
This time, he was thoroughly moved. He didn't care about becoming the strongest in China; he just needed to enter the innate level, and that was all. Since Lu Zhan dared to make such a bold claim, he must have had some confidence.
"Xiao Qiang, go to the Xiao family."
As soon as he got in the car, Lu Li urgently called out to Xiao Qiang.
Xiao Qiang responded and quickly started the car.
It was already close to noon, and the front street of the World Trade Center was one of the busiest main roads in Yanjing, bustling with people and traffic.
"Beep beep."
The car hadn't gone far when Xiao Qiang gently pressed the brake to slow down and honked the horn repeatedly.
"What's going on?" Xiao Junlan frowned and asked.
Lu Li rolled down the window, looked out, and quickly opened the door, "There's been an accident ahead. I'll go check it out."
"Be careful."
Xiao Junlan warned, thought for a moment, and then got out of the car.
About a hundred meters ahead, a crowd had gathered. A Volkswagen Phaeton with its hazard lights on was parked by the roadside, and a tilted electric scooter was in front of it.
Lu Li quickly approached, pushed through the crowd, and was suddenly stunned.
He saw a young man beating someone, who was lying on the ground, rolling and holding his head, shouting, "He's killing me! He's killing me!"
"How dare you touch my car, you're just asking for death."
"You hit someone and then blame them, is there any justice in this world!" the victim retorted, his face covered in dirt.
"Justice my ass."
The young man became even angrier upon hearing this, cursing and kicking harder.
"Ah, young people these days, they really don't know right from wrong."
The surrounding comments grew louder.
"Hey, he might be some rich second generation!"
"Can a Passat be a rich second generation?"
"Not a Passat, it's a Volkswagen Phaeton with a W12 6.0 engine, worth over two million!"
"..."
Listening to the comments, Lu Li carefully examined the victim, and his foot, which was about to step forward, suddenly stopped.
"Xiao Li, quickly stop them. If they keep beating him, he'll be killed," Xiao Junlan said worriedly, standing beside Lu Li.
Lu Li smiled, "He's a scammer."
"How do you know?"
"Guess."
Just as Lu Li finished speaking, the young man, apparently tired of beating, spat at the victim and sneered, "You dare to scam me, you're asking for death."
"Ah, so that's how it is!"
"Well done."
"..."
Lu Li turned to look at Xiao Junlan, shrugged, and said, "I was right! He must have mistaken the car for an ordinary white-collar worker's, but he didn't expect to run into a tough guy. Let's go, we'll take a detour back."
At this moment, a five or six-year-old girl suddenly rushed out of the crowd. Seeing the victim, she burst into tears and lunged at the young man, shouting, "You hit my dad, you're a bad person, you're a bad person."
"Huh?"
Lu Li was stunned and quickly scanned the crowd, wondering if he had seen wrong or if the scammer was so professional that he even used a child. If that was the case, even killing him wouldn't be too much.
With a glance, he quickly noticed a woman. She was looking at the victim with tears in her eyes, her lips tightly pressed, and her eyes full of disappointment.
"So that's how it is!"
"Get lost. You dirtied my clothes, selling you wouldn't even cover the cost!"
The young man, pushed by the girl, suddenly flew into a rage and pushed her away, "Don't pretend to be pitiful. Your father is a scammer, and you're no good either."
The girl, however, was very stubborn and rushed forward again, grabbing the young man's arm and trying to bite him.
The young man, frightened, quickly pulled back his arm. In anger, he suddenly raised his hand and slapped the girl.
Just as the slap was about to land, it was suddenly caught, and someone said, "Scammers should be beaten, but if a child is disobedient, you can spank their bottom, not slap their face."
"Who are you to meddle in my business?"
The young man turned around and said disdainfully.
"Just a passerby." Lu Li smiled and released the young man's wrist, "Don't be a half-hearted hero."
"Xiao Tao, it's not worth it to argue with these poor people. Your grandfather is still waiting at home!"
Just as the young man was about to explode, a middle-aged woman got out of the Phaeton.
After speaking, she scanned the crowd with a proud look, then her eyes flashed, and she suddenly looked surprised. Under everyone's gaze, she quickly walked to Xiao Junlan and said warmly, "Sister Junlan, you're back in Yanjing?"
