In the winter of 1987, seventeen-year-old Su Miao came to Hongqi Machinery Factory with her mother's suicide note.
There were only three words in the suicide note: Director Lu.
She recognized the wrong person.
Lu Zheng was not the factory director his mother was looking for, but he stayed with her after reading the suicide note - giving her a job, blocking rumors for her, and accompanying her to uncover an old case that had been suppressed for seventeen years.
Su Miao always thought that he was just paying off his father's debt.
It wasn't until evidence layer by layer pointed to the Lu family that she learned that the real "Factory Director Lu" was her biological father whom she had never met; and Lu Zheng's father was the silent accomplice back then.
Lu Zheng knew from the beginning that she had made a mistake.
He also knew that if he continued to investigate, he would lose his future, his reputation, and even her.
Everyone told him to stop.
But he personally handed over the incriminating evidence left by the Lu family.
Later Su Miao asked him: "Are you doing this for me because the Lu family owes me?"
Lu Zheng was silent for a long time.
"The beginning is."
"What happened next?"
"Later, I couldn't bear it."
Reader comments
Those who like period novels can stay here for a while. The heroine has no system, no golden fingers, and no rebirth. She walks all the roads step by step by herself. She may be luckier than many people, but she also works hard enough. I hope more people can read this book.
