Chapter 438: Drag into the Water

Chu Xi’s words angered Qin Chaotian even more!

"I'm dragging you into this? Haha, you get it, you have evidence against me in your hands now, and you can kill me at any time!" Qin Chaotian dialed Song Siyu's number regardless, but no one answered the call.

After dialing twice in a row, the result was the same. Chu Xi then remembered that Song Siyu had once told her that she would not answer unknown calls.

Just as the pressure in her heart eased a little, she saw a pair of hands in front of her: "Your phone, take it out!"

Chu Xi was really happy that her phone was thrown away by the servant. She looked at Qin Chaotian calmly and said, "Your housekeeper threw it away."

Butler: "...Master Qin, please listen to my explanation."

Qin Chaotian seemed to think of the scene before they came, and raised his hand to stop the housekeeper from saying anything.

The two of them were in a stalemate for a while. Qin Chaotian had no intention of letting Chu Xi go. He waved his sleeves and said, "This phone is for you. When you can get through and contact Song Siyu, come find me." After he finished speaking, he left.

Chu Xi was left standing there, crying out in despair, "Qin Chaotian, you can't do this to me!" She wanted to tell Qin Chaotian about Song Siyu and Mr. Bai, but he wouldn't give her a chance...

She sat there, looking at everything that was carefully decorated around her.

There was a wedding photo of the two hanging in the middle of the room. The smiles of the two people in the photo were so ironic.

…

Huo Juncheng locked himself in his study for a long time, studying the totem on it, but after a while, he had no clue. He lowered his eyes to glance at the diamond watch on his wrist and realized that he had been in the study for a full three hours. Then he stretched himself and stood up.

Downstairs, there were bursts of messy footsteps.

As soon as he reached the stair railing, he met the eyes of a large group of uniformed police officers.

What's going on?

Why are there so many policemen?

The leading police officer pulled out his ID and spoke to Huo Juncheng. "Mr. Huo, I'm sorry to come so unexpectedly. We have no other options. A female corpse was found in the sewer at the villa area. We must investigate and visit every household."

"A female corpse?"

Huo Juncheng frowned and walked down from the second floor with a noble aura.

After instructing the servant to pour tea for everyone, he chatted with the police for a while. The police introduced the basic situation of the female corpse and showed him a photo of her. "I heard that this is the maid of your neighbor Mr. Jiang. Have you seen her?"

Huo Juncheng couldn't even remember the names of some of his own maids... The only one he had the most contact with was Sister Xiu, and he didn't know anyone else's.

He took a look and summoned Sister Xiu: "She knows more about this than I do."

Women are good gossips. He had occasionally heard Sister Xiu talking about family matters with other servants some time ago. Seeing so many police officers, Sister Xiu didn't panic. She walked forward with a smile and said, "Sir, you called me."

"They want to know the situation from us, so tell them what you know."

"Okay!"

Sister Xiu took the photo and saw that it was Xiao Cui who had died. She was shocked and confirmed several times: "It's Xiao Cui..."

The police knew it was Xiao Cui; they were looking for clues, not names. Seeing Sister Xiu so excited, they felt they could get something out of her. However, due to the secrecy surrounding the case, they could only temporarily take Sister Xiu back to the police station to record her statement.

Huo Juncheng agreed silently. After they left, he called Longcheng and asked him to buy some food.

After he finished his instructions, he was about to go upstairs to find Lin Yilan. Just as he stood up, he heard the voices of Lin Yilan and grandma coming from the entrance: "Hey, my dear granddaughter-in-law, grandma is very happy today, thank you."

"Grandma, if you're happy, I'm happy!"

Two people came in from outside carrying large and small bags.

Huo Juncheng looked at him and asked, "Going shopping?"

"Wrong!" Lin Yilan hummed a little tune happily, almost jumping up with joy.

Grandma followed in from behind and smiled at Huo Juncheng: "I took your wife to do something more enjoyable than shopping."

What's better than shopping?

What's up?

"I took her to a charity dinner and bought her a pink diamond as a birthday present." Grandma felt happy when she thought of her own heroic act of buying the pink diamond for 150 million.

Huo Juncheng narrowed his eyes in surprise, his brain working rapidly.

Auction, pink diamond?

"Ysera's?" he asked.

Grandma was instantly overwhelmed by her grandson's vast knowledge! She stepped forward and patted Huo Juncheng's arm with satisfaction: "As expected of my grandson, you even know about Ysera's pink diamonds!"

"How much did it cost?"

Grandma held out her hand and said, "Add a one to the front."

"One billion?"

"It's high."

"Five hundred million?" Huo Juncheng guessed again.

Grandma shook her head as if she had made a fortune: "No, guess again."

"Fifty million?"

"Add one."

Huo Juncheng felt a slight headache, as he already knew her auction price... This Ysera Pink Diamond was originally called "Angry Pink Diamond," which tells the story of a woman named Sa's loyalty to her husband during the war, and her infatuation in waiting for him her entire life.

The early stage of this story is like this. He had specially studied this pink diamond because of this story, thinking of giving it to the woman he loved most in the future.

But when you study something thoroughly, you will find that those beautiful stories are just stories made up by salesmen.

The truth is...after the First Lady bought the pink diamond, she divorced her loving husband. Puzzled, her husband repeatedly reassured her of his love for her. It turned out the woman, named Sa, was actually the First Lady's great-grandmother.

The real story is that the person Sa was waiting for not only did not die in the war, but also did not suffer from any melodramatic amnesia plot!

It was simply because that man met a woman even more beautiful than Pisa and chose to abandon his wife and children. Pisa shed all her tears of disappointment on this pink diamond, so those who know her call her the Angry Pink Diamond.

It symbolizes the betrayer in love.

Grandma and Lin Yilan were mesmerized by what they heard and cursed loudly: "How could there be such a heartless man!"

"Fortunately, this pink diamond was given to you by grandma, not me." Huo Juncheng shrugged, not wanting to be too obvious with his words.

Grandma quickly explained to Lin Yilan, "My dear granddaughter-in-law, if you don't like it, let's make an appointment with the hammer master to auction off this pink diamond."

Lin Yilan has been practicing martial arts since childhood! How could she possibly believe such absurd things?

To others, this was a pink diamond symbolizing a broken relationship! But to Lin Yilan, it was glittering gold! One hundred and fifty million! She had never seen such a large sum of money in her life.

She chuckled and quickly hid the pink diamond on her right hand behind her back: "Grandma, it's okay, it's all fake, I don't care at all!" If this pink diamond can break love, then let it break!
