Chapter 176 - Suspicious

"Zhuoen, what are you doing?" Xu Peiyun walked toward her.

"Mom, isn't this the phone of the landlord? Why is this still here?” Li Zhuoen said, motioning to her for the phone in her hand.

"You mean this phone?" Xu Peiyun smiled a little, "This mobile phone is not the landlord's, I bought it new, my mobile phone is not broken, I see her model of mobile phone is very easy to use, just when I visited the mobile phone store, I saw it, so I bought the same one."

"So that's it!" Li Zhuoen also wanted to look at the mobile phone in her hand.

"Didn't you say you were going to cook for Haohao and me? Let's go to the kitchen! In a moment, Haohao should come over!” Xu Peiyun said, naturally taking the mobile phone from her hand and putting it in her pocket, and then pulling her to the kitchen.

"Mom, when did you buy the phone, why don't you let me go with you?" Busy in the kitchen, Li Zhuoen said.

"Haven't you been injured in the past two days, if I told you, you will definitely accompany me to buy it, mother hurts for you." Xu Peiyun said it grandly.

"Have you saved my number? Shall I make one call to your phone first?” Li Zhuoen didn't know why she asked this, maybe in her subconscious, she had already sensed that something was not right.

"No need, I have an address book, all the phones are written on it, and I bought it back only to find out that I want a small card, wait until I go to the phone counter tomorrow to cut my card into a small card." Xu Peiyun explained.

"Well, tomorrow I'll accompany you to the phone counter." Li Zhuoen thought about it.

"It's okay." This time she didn't object.

Because Xu Peiyun insisted that her leg injury was healed, she had been taking care of herself and was used to it, and she felt uncomfortable letting someone take care of herself, so she let Xiao Gui return to Cen Residence.

The two women were busy in the kitchen for a while, and Cen Yuhao also came.

"Haohao is here? Sit down for a while and you'll be ready to go right away.” Xu Peiyun came out to open the door and watched the driver help him stand in the doorway, so she wanted to reach out and help him.

"Madam, I'll do it." The driver said politely.

"Okay then!" Xu Peiyun withdrew her hand, "Please help him to the sofa."

"Yes!" The driver answered and helped Cen Yuhao to sit down on the sofa.

"You go to the car and wait for me." After sitting down, Cen Yuhao said to the driver. After he listened, he bowed to him and Xu Peiyun successively, and then opened the door and walked out.

"Haohao, you sit for a while, and I'll go see how Zhuoen is doing!" Xu Peiyun saw that it was only the two of them, so she said.

"Well, you go, I'm sorry I can't help." Cen Yuhao's tone was apologetic.

"It's all right, you can take a break first!" She said and went to the kitchen.

This is actually what Cen Yuhang has particularly emphasized, let her try to avoid staying alone with Cen Yuhao, his insight is very strong, maybe he will find the flaws in her words.

Seeing that she had already walked in, Cen Yuhao felt a little bored, so he casually looked around.

Because it had not been long since it had been moved, the living room had very few furnishings except for the furniture left by the former landlord, and it looked a little empty. When he goes back later he’ll discuss with Li Zhuoen to see if she needs to buy some decorations for her mother.

He was calculating in his heart, and his eyes fell on a pot of green lotus placed not far from the window sill.

The green lotus grew very luxuriantly, and he hadn't cared much about such a pot of green plants before. But he could be sure that the day she had just moved in, he hadn't seen it yet, and it was her mother who had bought it herself.

He recalled it carefully, as if the last time she came, there was already that pot of plants there, but at that time, her legs and feet were not very convenient, even if she wanted to go out, it was not convenient to walk, let alone hold such a large pot of plants in her hand.

Feeling a little strange, Cen Yuhao stood up and walked toward the pot of green lotus. The green lotus grew more luxuriantly than he usually saw, and the leaves were close together, with almost no gaps. He bowed his head, trying to reach out and pluck the leaves.

At this moment, he heard the sound of two people laughing and walking out of the kitchen, so he quickly closed his hands and walked back to the sofa and sat down.

"I'll just serve the food, and you can help Haohao over." Xu Peiyun put the dish on the table and then said to her daughter.

"Okay." Li Zhuoen answered, went to the bathroom and washed off the oil stains on her hands, and then came to the sofa.

"Let's go!" She stood in front of her and said.

"Okay." Cen Yuhao nodded, and then sat down at the table under her support.

"Haohao, after waiting for so long, are you hungry?" Xu Peiyun looked at him and sat down, smiled, and asked.

"Fortunately, our family sometimes eats late." Cen Yuhao shook his head.

"Mom, under normal circumstances, their family has to wait until all the family members have arrived, and then the whole family eats around the table together, so sometimes they eat late." Li Zhuoen explained.

"That's the way it is! What a harmonious family!” Xu Peiyun's voice was full of longing.

"If you want to go, you can do whatever you want, and my mother asked me to tell you so that you can often go and talk to her." Cen Yuhao said again.

"Okay, okay, I'll have time to pass," Xu Peiyun picked up the chopsticks, and clipped some vegetables into the bowl for him, "don't say anything first, let's eat quickly! Otherwise it will be cold! Haohao, you can eat more tonight, this time it is basically Zhuoen's cooking!”

"Okay." Cen Yuhao responded, picked up the chopsticks and ate it.

Although they are all very homely dishes, they make him very happy to eat. Because there were servants in the family, Li Zhuoen did not have a chance to cook, and he had eaten her dishes in the seaside villa before, but he had missed it a lot, but he never expressed it.

"How's it going, delicious?" Xu Peiyun asked again.

"Well," Cen Yuhao replied, remembering the green lotus he had just seen, and he said, "Mom, recently I and Zhuoen don't have much time to accompany you, your leg injury is better now, tomorrow we will accompany you out to play!"

"Don't bother, you all have things to do." Xu Peiyun resigned.

"I think Yuhao's suggestion is very good, tomorrow I will accompany you to install the small card of the mobile phone, just so that I can accompany you to play around."

"Didn't you say you were going to work tomorrow? You don't have to ask for leave for my sake.” Xu Peiyun said.

"It's okay, of course, you're more important than work." Li Zhuoen smiled. She knew that it must be Cen Yuhao who wanted to make a good impression on her mother, so she said so, and of course, she had to support it.

"Work is important but still, you must accept this little bit of filial piety." Li Zhuoen waved her hand.

"That's it, Zhuoen would just take one more day off, and we'll pick you up tomorrow morning." Cen Yuhao said.

"That ... All right!” Xu Peiyun saw that she could not resign, so she had to agree.

The meal was quite harmonious, Li Zhuoen could feel the change that Cen Yuhao had made for her, he had tried his best to put down his usual shelf to try to please her mother, she was very touched to see it.

"Thank you!" On the way back, Li Zhuoen looked at Cen Yuhao and said.

"Suddenly said thank you?" He turned his head.

"Anyway, thank you!" Li Zhuoen's face was touched and satisfied with a smile.

"Huh." Cen Yuhao only sent this word to her.

If she had heard him respond like this to her before, she would be dissatisfied, but this time she just smiled at him. She really didn't expect that such an unruly man like Cen Yuhao would change for such an ordinary her.

"By the way, do you know when the pot of green lotus in your mother's house moved?" Cen Yuhao remembered this and asked.

"Is there a green lotus? I didn't pay attention!” Li Zhuoen's personality was very simple, and she didn't pay much attention to those small details, "But what happened to that pot of green lotus?"

"I think it's a little strange, your mother hurt her foot some time ago, so she probably didn't want to buy such a big pot of green lotus, right?" Cen Yuhao said his thoughts.

"Maybe my mother's friend came to visit the door and brought it over," Li Zhuoen said, remembering the phone just now, she added, "but I also think there is something strange today."

"What?" He asked.

Li Zhuoen then told him what had just happened in the bedroom.

"I always have a feeling that I can't say it, I think my mother is a little weird, but I can't say what is wrong." She made her comments again.

"It's okay, don't think about it too much, maybe it's just because you've been separated from your mother for too long." Cen Yuhao comforted her.

"I think so too." Hearing him say this, Li Zhuoen didn't feel anything anymore.

How does it feel like things are not so simple? Cen Yuhao frowned tightly as if someone was deliberately hiding something.

After returning home, he took advantage of Li Zhuoen's time to take a bath and picked up his mobile phone to dial Li Xu's number.

"Vice president, what do you command?" Li Xu asked after connecting.

"Tomorrow I will take Li Zhuoen's mother out the door, and you send someone to her house and search there carefully to see if there is anything suspicious." Cen Yuhao stood in front of the window, looking at the night outside.

"Is the DNA already identified?” Li Xu did not understand.

"I have my own considerations for this." Cen Yuhao didn't want to explain too much.

"Well, tomorrow I'll arrange for someone to come over." Li Xu replied.

"Notice that the person who goes must keep the home as it is, and there must be no trace left." Cen Yuhao instructed.

"I see." Li Xu said, ready to hang up the phone.

"By the way, let the people who go pay attention to the pot of green lotus in the living room, I think it's a bit of a problem." Cen Yuhao remembered this, so he added.

Hanging up the phone, Cen Yuhao looked into the distance. His heart was very entangled, if he really found that her mother was abnormal, what would Li Zhuoen do?
