Lu Yudong had a meeting today and passed by Denning Street in the afternoon.

He clearly remembered that Shao Zheng lived on Denning Street.

He told himself, "It's just Jiang Ci's first love, it has nothing to do with me, why should I go to his house?"

Yet, he couldn't control his curiosity and asked the driver to stop the car. He went to Shao Zheng's house alone.

Shao Zheng's address was written on the front page of his diary.

Lu Yudong wasn't sure if he was overly concerned or just had a good memory, but he remembered Shao Zheng's address perfectly.

A middle-aged woman opened the door for him.

"Is this Shao Zheng's home?" Lu Yudong asked.

"Yes, and you are...?"

"I'm Shao Zheng's partner from his teaching days. My last name is Shang. I originally wanted to sponsor computers for Shao Zheng's school, but unfortunately, this happened to him," Lu Yudong said.

"Oh, Mr. Shang, please come in, come in," Shao Zheng's mother, Wang Xuan, said as she pulled Lu Yudong inside.

Ever since Shao Zheng passed away, she had been very warm to any of his friends, as if she could see her son's shadow in them.

Shao Zheng's father, Shao Luhua, was cooking in the kitchen. Wang Xuan introduced, "This is Mr. Shang, a friend from Xiao Zheng's teaching days."

"Hello, Mr. Shang, hello," Shao Luhua greeted warmly, though he was holding a spatula and couldn't shake hands. "Mr. Shang, why don't you stay for dinner?"

Shao Zheng's parents seemed like honest people.

"We'll see," Lu Yudong replied, maintaining a serious demeanor.

He glanced around and saw a photo of Shao Zheng in the living room. He was indeed handsome.

Sacrificing himself to save others—such virtue is rare in this world.

"Xiao Zheng..." Wang Xuan started to speak but began to cry, "We fully supported Xiao Zheng's teaching, who knew this would happen."

"This is a small token of my appreciation," Lu Yudong said, taking out a stack of money and placing it in Wang Xuan's hand.

"No, no, we can't accept this money. Mr. Shang, take it back. If you insist, I'll have to ask you to leave."

Lu Yudong took the money back.

"My phone number is 139xxxxxxxx. If you need anything, feel free to call me," he said.

He gave them his assistant's number. The assistant had two numbers, and this one was his private line, unknown to the company.

He wanted to see if Jiang Ci would contact this number privately, given that "Mr. Shang" was Shao Zheng's former friend and happened to be in the computer business.

Lu Yudong wasn't sure what he was planning, but he wanted to set a trap for Jiang Ci.

He returned to the office.

Shao Zheng's mother called Jiang Ci to tell her about Shao Zheng's friend visiting and mentioned that Mr. Shang was in the computer business and had intended to donate computers to Shao Zheng's school.

Since Shao Zheng's passing, Wang Xuan shared anything related to him with Jiang Ci.

"Computers?" Jiang Ci repeated the word.

With the money in hand, she had been looking online for reliable computer suppliers.

Since he was Shao Zheng's friend and was planning to sponsor, he should be trustworthy.

Jiang Ci was pleasantly surprised.

"Yes, he said he wanted to sponsor before, but then this happened to Xiao Zheng."

"Auntie, do you have his phone number?"

"Hold on, I'll give it to you," Wang Xuan said, then gave Jiang Ci Lu Yudong's number.

"Okay, I'll contact him."

"Why?"

Donating computers was a costly endeavor, and Jiang Ci didn't want to burden the auntie with this knowledge, so she kept it a secret.

After hanging up, Jiang Ci called the number.

Of course, she didn't know that the person on the other end was Lu Yudong's assistant.

Lu Yudong had already briefed his assistant, who knew how to respond.

At that moment, as Lu Yudong walked into his office, the assistant came in with the phone.

"Mr. Lu, it's Jiang Ci," the assistant said, holding up the phone.

Lu Yudong lit a cigarette, tossed the lighter onto the desk with a "clack," and said mockingly, "She's quick. Follow the script I gave you."

Jiang Ci and the assistant eventually agreed: this Saturday, Jiang Ci would visit the factory in the suburbs.

Jiang Ci also added the assistant on WeChat, and the assistant sent her the location.

Previously, Lu Yudong had acquired a small computer company, intending to use it for OEM production. Now, it came in handy.

He set the trap, and she took the bait.
