“Didn’t you say that you wanted to wait for Liu Yufei’s third sum of money to be transferred over before exposing your identity? Why did you suddenly change your mind?” 19 asked Shen Xiaoxiao doubtfully.
Shen Xiaoxiao looked at the name list in her hand and said without raising her head, “Those two sums of money are enough to bankrupt Dongyou Country. As for why it was revealed, it’s because Pei Tianai reminded me today.”
“She reminded you? Wasn’t she deliberately picking a fight with you?”
“No, Pei Tianai is different from everyone in the Pei family. She only cares about the Pei Corporation and her nephew. As for the other father and brother, they have nothing to do with her. She is extremely smart. If it weren’t for her, the Pei family wouldn’t have survived until now.”
“Previously, Jiang Haoran had been developing overseas. After the Ouyang family’s incident, they slowly shifted their focus back to China. How could Pei Tianai not know Jiang Haoran’s identity? Even though she knew, she still questioned me in front of everyone. She didn’t want to create a scandal for me, but to remind me that the Pei family had made a move.”
“As for what move, the only person the Pei family could contact left Dongyou Country, which was developing very well overseas. They couldn’t think of anything else, and Dongyou Country has fallen into the hands of Liu Yufei. The Pei family must have thought highly of Liu Yufei. No, to be precise… It’s that old man, Pei Dongguo, who has his eyes on Liu Yufei.”
Shen Xiaoxiao’s analysis was completely unexpected. How could she have thought of this just because of a few words from Pei Tianai? Did she know too much about Pei Tianai? Did she know too much about the Pei family? But all these years, she clearly did not have any contact with the Pei family?
Of course, 19 did not know. In this life, it seemed like Shen Xiaoxiao did not have any contact with the Pei family. But in her previous life, until the day she died, the Pei family was the one who stood behind the scenes and watched from the sidelines. How could she not know about the family that she had been wagging her tail and begging for pity for a few years?
However, Pei Tianai had done them a favor. She was not the kind of person who would burn bridges after crossing the river. She could only return the favor and only target Pei Dongguo.
In any case, Pei Dongguo knew too much. From the beginning, Pei Dongguo knew a lot of things.
“This is not bad. Take a look.”
19 looked at the page that Shen Xiaoxiao was pointing at. It was a jade hairpin with an elegant and simple style. It looked really good.
“En, if you like it, then take a picture. But I heard that this is the highlight of tonight’s show.”
Shen Xiaoxiao followed 19’s finger and looked over. When she saw it, she was shocked. She actually saw Black Ganoderma.
Was it really a Black Ganoderma?
“Black Ganoderma?”
“Black Ganoderma? Is this called Black Ganoderma? The description says it’s Purple Ganoderma. look.”
Shen Xiaoxiao looked at the description. As expected, the description said it was Purple Ganoderma, but this thing was clearly a Black Ganoderma. Look at the cut marks on the top. When she was poisoned, she remembered that Yan Kuan said it had been cut. Even if it had a different name now, it would definitely not be fake.
“Who took out this thing and filmed it?”
She remembered that this thing was in Yan Kuan’s hands, but later on, Yan Kuan said that he had already given the Black Ganoderma to the old woman when he had exchanged it with the fake Shen Xiaoxiao. Why would it appear now?
And that Ghost Axe that she had hidden in her throat, why was it that she could not figure it out?
“It’s not written. It’s very normal. A lot of people like to do good deeds without leaving their names behind. Look, these few people don’t even have names.”
Shen Xiaoxiao was a little frustrated. She could not care less if these things did not leave their names behind, but she had to know who was the one who put up this Black Ganoderma.
“Go find Jiang Haoran and find out. I have to find out who took it out.”
Seeing how nervous Shen Xiaoxiao was, 19 realized that she wasn’t joking, so he immediately walked to one side to investigate.
After 19 left, Long Xi walked over and sat on Shen Xiaoxiao’s left side.
“What does Xiaoxiao value tonight?”
When Shen Xiaoxiao turned her head and saw Long Xi, she wanted to ask him what was going on, but that unfamiliar face and that hoarse, deep voice made all her thoughts vanish.
He couldn’t remember even if she asked him.
She turned her head in annoyance and continued to flip through the manual in her hand, wanting to see if there was anything else that would surprise her.
“Xiaoxiao’s in a bad mood?”
“Stay away from me, then I’ll be in a good mood.”
“Really? But there’s no helping it. I can only sit here in the seat arranged by the organizer. Maybe I can change it a little. Anyway, you and President Jiang have a good relationship.”
Shen Xiaoxiao looked at Long Xi’s helpless look and could not help but get angry. However, he also reminded Shen Xiaoxiao. What did he value tonight? Could it be this Black Ganoderma as well?
“If Boss Long likes to sit, then just sit. But I’m also curious, what does Boss Long value tonight?”
“10% of tonight’s auction will be donated to the disaster area as charity money. Regardless of whether there’s a suitable one or not, it’s important to bid for something. I also want to sit for charity.”
“As for what I value, I think this is not bad. Xiaoxiao, what do you think?”
Shen Xiaoxiao looked at Long Xi’s finger and pointed at the hairpin that she had seen earlier.
Shen Xiaoxiao asked doubtfully, “Does Boss Long like this?”
“I don’t really like it, but this is more pleasing to the eye. I’ll take a picture of it and give it to the beauty.”
Shen Xiaoxiao looked at Nan Ya beside him and did not say anything else. She turned her head and flipped through the picture book again. It was just then that 19 came back.
19 was also stunned when he saw Long Xi, but he still nodded and calmly sat on Shen Xiaoxiao’s right side and whispered in her ear, “The item was sent by the Jiang family.”
This was something that Shen Xiaoxiao had never expected. The Jiang family sent it? How could it be the Jiang family?
“Jiang Haoran told you personally? Where is he?” Shen Xiaoxiao looked around and didn’t see any trace of Jiang Haoran. She asked 19 with a frown.
“President Jiang said it himself. He said it was an order from the Jiang family. He doesn’t know anything else. Besides, the Jiang family has something urgent going on, so he left first.”
“Left?”
“Yes, I don’t know what happened to the Jiang family.”
Shen Xiaoxiao tried hard to recall everything about the Jiang family in her previous life, but it was very vague. She had placed all her attention on Pei Li in her previous life. Even though she already knew everything in her previous life and wanted to fight back hard… She did not pay attention to the matters of the true upper-class society.
Therefore, when Shen Xiaoxiao heard that Jiang Haoran had left, she was at a loss for words for a moment.
The person from the Jiang family knew Yan Kuan, and they were very familiar with each other. Could it be that Yan Kuan had asked him to take it out before the incident? Was that so?
But why did Yan Kuan do that? How did he know that something would happen to him? Strange, it was really too strange.
“Welcome, everyone… Next is the first item in the collection…”
The auction had already begun. Shen Xiaoxiao didn’t have any way to find Jiang Haoran and ask him about it.. The only thing she needed to do now was to focus on winning the Black Ganoderma.
