Lu Ming felt that society needed reporters like Meng Yujun.
Brave and fearless, determined to pursue the truth.
He nodded slightly and suddenly thought of something. He asked, “Which area of the cemetery are people not allowed to clean?”
Meng Yujun thought for a moment and said, “I remember that it’s a place filled with weeds in the south. I heard that there’s only a single tombstone there…”
Lu Ming did not listen to the rest of her words.
This news exploded in his mind like a thunderclap.
His expression instantly turned extremely ugly.
“… Is that grave owner’s surname Zhang?”
Meng Yujun noticed that there was something wrong with his expression and said, “I think that’s the surname. Why? Do you know the owner of the grave?”
He pursed his lips tightly and replied in a dry voice, “That’s my mom’s grave.”
“Mom?!”
Meng Yujun looked at him in astonishment. The protagonist of the matter that she had been investigating was actually her junior’s mother!
This seemed to be too much of a coincidence.
She found her voice. “Can you tell me your mom’s full name?”
“Zhang Wenfang.”
Instantly, the name matched the one given by the administrator.
The same name.
The exact same location.
Lu Ming was undoubtedly the grave owner’s family.
Meng Yujun did not know what to say.
It was ridiculously coincidental.
She actually found the answer to the matter that she had been investigating for a long time at her own company.
She suddenly thought of the saying, ‘Fate plays tricks on people.’
Her lips quivered as she asked, “Did you offend someone? Otherwise, why would you be targeted?”
Lu Ming immediately thought of Lu Yaohua and Tang Wenyi.
Other than the two of them, no one else would be so hostile towards him and his mother.
He clenched his fists.
He was incensed over what they did.
“How wicked!” he thought.
“How shameless!”
“You should stop investigating this matter. The other party is not someone you can handle.”
Meng Yujun knew that he must have someone in mind. She said, “No! I came here for the truth. If I give up, won’t everyone be kept in the dark?! No one will know about such a terrible thing!”
Lu Ming advised, “But you are just an ordinary person. I will resolve this matter. If I handle it, there won’t be any problem. Besides, that grave belongs to my mother. I have more reason to go after that person!”
Neither of them wanted to give in.
In the end, it was Meng Yujun who gave in. “Then be careful. If anything happens to you, I will investigate this matter to the end!”
“Okay.”
Lu Ming left the first floor without looking back.
When he arrived at the top floor, it was quiet and empty.
As the entire floor was filled with offices, reporters rarely came here.
He sent a text message to Eye of the Sky Investigation Company to ask them to investigate why the tax evasion incident that he disclosed to the media was still not released after so many days.
It was because of the cemetery incident that he remembered that the management company had not settled the matter yet.
“If nothing goes wrong, these people behind the scenes are all…” he thought.
After a while, his phone vibrated.
Lu Ming quickly glanced at the screen and saw a long string of words.
The Lu Corporation was the one that suppressed the tax evasion news and warned the media that if anyone dared to release it, they would not be able to survive in Shanghai.
In addition, the Lu Corporation was also responsible for the matter concerning his mother’s grave. However, unlike the former, this matter was initiated by a man.
Fortunately for Lu Ming, the surveillance cameras showed that after the man left the cemetery, he got into a car. The person in the car was… Tang Wenyi!
Lu Ming took a few deep breaths. He held the cell phone tightly and stared at the blurry photo on the phone.
Perhaps those who did not know her well would not be able to recognize her.
However, even if she turned into ashes, Lu Ming could clearly tell that this person was Tang Wenyi!
He had seen a watch identical to the one around Tang Wenyi’s wrist in the photo. From what he knew, this watch was basically custom-designed!
Nobody would custom-make the same watch!
Lu Ming suppressed the anger in his heart. This couple was really pushing him to his limits!
One was suppressing the news while the other was messing with a cemetery.
“What an adulterous couple!” he thought.
He punched the wall in anger!
There was no time to dwell on the matter. He quickly dialed the number of the Navy Seal Imperial Shield Personal Bodyguard Company and said, “Get ready 10 people to pick me up. I’m going to Yongan Cemetery to relocate a grave!”
Since Yongan Cemetery allowed this to happen, it was clear to Lu Ming that this company was rotten to the core!
Now that he had money, he naturally wanted to move his mother’s grave to the best cemetery in Shanghai!
“Tang Wenyi and Lu Yaohua are not afraid of retribution for disturbing the dead?!” he was incensed at the thought.

The veins in his forehead bulged.
Not long after, five luxury cars stopped at the entrance of Metropolitan Daily, and 10 strong men in black alighted from them!
It attracted the attention of countless passers-by!
Meng Yujun was in the midst of writing a script when she heard the commotion outside. She stood up to take a look.
She could not help but wonder which big shot had arrived.
Just one car was worth more than her annual salary.
When she saw this scene, she felt a little envious.
She wondered if those people wearing sunglasses were bodyguards.
“Are they here to receive someone?” she thought.
“Although some of the employees at Metropolitan Daily are rich, they aren’t this rich, right?”
Just as she was thinking, Lu Ming walked straight to the car.
She gasped. “What is going on?!”
She guessed that the big shot was the junior she had bumped into at the entrance this morning.
But the clothes he wore were not branded goods.
“Could it be that rich people nowadays like to wear cheap goods?” she wondered.
She really could not understand the thoughts of rich people.
It was no wonder that the other party said that he could resolve the matter.
“Well, am I the only ordinary person?” she mused.
In the car, Lu Ming knitted his brows.
“Meeting someone like Lu Yaohua was really f*cking unlucky!” he thought.
He and his mother wanted to have stability in their lives, but Lu Yaohua and Tang Wenyi never wanted to leave them alone!
He could not forget living in a shed with no water source and having to borrow water here and there.
He and his mother were clearly living in Shanghai, but their living conditions could not even compare to the rural areas!
They had thought about returning to her hometown, but they did not have any extra money on them for travel expenses. Even if they wanted to leave, they could not.

It was difficult to survive, let alone leave.
In addition, his mother was too weak to endure the long commute.
Shanghai felt like a cage, trapping his mother here forever!
He had pulled all-nighters to study hard so that his mother could live a good life. In the end, before he made any money, she passed away.
As for Yongan Cemetery, he had saved money and bought a grave there for his mother.
He thought that his mother could finally rest in peace, and he did not expect that Tang Wenyi would do such a thing!
