Have these people visited Lu Yuanchou before he died, or bought a single mouth of food for the child? Now that people are dead, they are cruel enough to divide the property and directly sued.

Zou Lixiang was indignant, but she didn’t know what to do now, so she could only consult a lawyer.

But the lawyer told her that because a stepmother was not related to the child by blood, it was very disadvantageous to compete for custody of the child. But of course, it was not entirely impossible.

The court will respect the child’s own wishes to the utmost extent. If the child proactively told the court that the stepmother treated her better and that she wanted to follow her stepmother, then she was highly likely to win the case.

Hearing this, Zou Lixiang felt a thud in her heart.

She knew that there was no way at all. Lu Lu was so afraid of her, how would she be willing to follow her?

Does she really want to give up Lu Lu’s custody rights?

Zou Lixiang was very unwilling but was helpless. She sat on the sofa distractedly, not knowing what to do.

 

A young man appeared at the gate of the community.

The young, tall, gentle student-like man wore a white shirt and carried a backpack. 

He looked at the address sent by the professor with his mobile phone, checked the address information at the gate of the community, and asked the security guard at the gate uneasily, “Uncle, is this No.73 Jiujie Alley, is this the Carnation Community?”

“That’s right, it’s here. Who are you looking for, boy?”

“I’m looking for Lu Yuanzhou. Do you know him?”

“Lu Yuanzhou, he passed away half a year ago. Why are you looking for him?”

“What, Lu Yuanzhou passed away?”

“Yes, it happened at the end of last year, how are you related to him?”

“Uh, that is.” The young man’s eyes showed a little sadness, and he continued to ask, “Where is Lu Yuanzhou’s family, his wife or children?”

This was an old community. There were mostly middle-aged and elderly people in the community. They gathered in the community when they were free to play cards and gossip. As long as there was any news in the community, it would not escape being gossiped about, so the security guards also knew a lot.

The security guard was so bored at work with no one to talk to, so his chatty mouth loosened.

“This Lu Yuanzhou was a poor person. His daughter was only one year old, and his first wife passed away. A big man like him didn’t have any help and was taking care of a little baby. Later everyone persuaded him to remarry. He was not happy to find one at first, but then he couldn’t help it because the child was too young, so he found another divorcee who brought a baby to live with him.”

The security guard sighed and continued, “Afterwards, he died in a car accident not long after the second marriage. After his death, his daughter has been bullied and abused by this stepmother.”

The young man hurriedly asked, “Then Lu Yuanzhou’s daughter still lives here?”

“She was living here before. I don’t know where her stepmother sent her. I heard that a crew went to the kindergarten to choose a young actor and they picked Lu Lu. Recently, she has been filming in the crew.

“I don’t know if it’s a serious crew, and I have seen them care for her, they use the child as a cash cow.”

The young man hurriedly wrote down what the security guard had said on his mobile phone. “I just heard you say that the little girl is called Lu Lu, right? Which kindergarten does she go to?”

“Jinxin Kindergarten is just around here. Turn left at the end of the road ahead. Our community’s children are all going to school there.”

“Okay, thank you.”

After he thanked the security guard, he hurried to the kindergarten. His cell phone rang.

After seeing the name on the caller ID, the young man immediately stopped. His expression became serious.

“Hello, Professor Lu.”

“Xiao Zhuo, have you arrived? How is the situation?”

There was a majestic voice on the phone, and the young man suddenly became nervous.

“I have already asked, the person you asked me to find, Lu Yuanzhou, died in a car accident six months ago.”

“What are you talking about, he has passed away?”

“Yeah, but he left a daughter. I heard that her stepmother was using her as a cash cow and sent her to a filming crew to film. I’m going to ask the kindergarten which crew she is filming with.”

“Hurry up and ask! Be sure to ask in detail, you must find the child.”

The young man was very surprised when he heard Professor Lu’s eager voice on the phone.

He has been with the professor for so many years, and it is the first time that he has been so emotional.

He didn’t dare to be negligent, so he quickly calmed down. “Okay, I’ll go and ask, Professor Lu, don’t worry.”
