Chapter 118 Suspect
After being reminded by the other party, Lu Jingxiao and Gu Yulin noticed the anomaly in the surveillance footage. They were overwhelmed by the simultaneous playback of the videos.
In the surveillance footage, a young man wearing a hat and mask, disguised very well, sneaked into the appraisal room. When he came out, he was still sneaking around. However, Luo Zhiwei's dragon-patterned jade pendant had tassels, which were very ordinary, but... the man didn't have tassels on him when he went in.
Luo Zhiwei was a little agitated. She pointed at the screen and shouted, "It's him! The tassel in his pocket is the tassel on my jade pendant! It's him!"
She was emotionally unstable and wished she could jump into the screen and grab the person out.
Those were things her mother left her; how could they have been stolen?
It was only given to Gu Yulin a few days ago, and no one even knew what the jade pendant was, yet it was stolen like this?
What should she do? How should she explain this to her mother?
Lu Jingxiao quickly pulled her into his arms, holding her tightly as he gently comforted her, as if he were comforting an emotionally unstable baby. He used all his tenderness: "Weiwei, believe me, believe me, I will find the jade pendant."
Gu Yulin, standing to the side, was also filled with deep self-blame. He even felt inexplicably sorry for the girl in front of him who was crying her heart out.
Gu Yulin stood behind Luo Zhiwei, his deep voice comforting her: "Miss Luo, please calm down. Lao San and I will definitely find the jade pendant."
In this capital city, no one has ever dared to actually take his things.
unless...
Gu Yulin already had someone he suspected: "I already have a general idea of what I'm suspecting."
Luo Zhiwei's initial agitation subsided instantly, and she turned back to look at Gu Yulin in shock: "Who is it?"
"Don't worry about this. I will get the jade pendant back to you intact."
Although Gu Yulin had a suspect, it didn't mean that the people at the appraisal agency were safe. He looked at the chairman with cold eyes and said, "I'll give you three hours to find the person. If you can't, I don't mind if the appraisal agency changes its chairman."
The chairman was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat and hurriedly nodded and bowed, replying, "Yes, yes, I will find the person as soon as possible!"
Damn it, which bastard dared to steal from this organization? When I find you, I'll skin you alive!
Gu Yulin then looked at Lu Jingxiao and whispered, "You stay here and watch over Miss Luo. Leave the rest to me."
As if the two brothers had a telepathic connection, he also had a suspect in mind, and his eyes unconsciously turned cold and sinister: "Be careful, have the second brother go with you. With him there, your uncle will have some reservations."
Gu Yulin: "......"
The third brother makes a good point. With the second brother around, the eldest uncle will feel guilty because the third uncle hurt the second brother.
It might be possible to achieve twice the result with half the effort.
"Alright, I'll call my second brother along. We'll get the jade pendant back no matter what."
Just as Gu Yulin was about to leave, Luo Zhiwei stopped him. She looked coldly at the man in front of her and said, "Was it your third uncle's men who took my jade pendant?"
Gu Yulin: "......"
Sometimes being too smart isn't a good thing.
He and Lu Jingxiao didn't say anything, but this person had already guessed it.
Seeing his silence, Luo Zhiwei had a rough idea of what was going on. It seemed that it was true.
“I want to go with you. I want to get my jade pendant back myself.”
Those were her mother's belongings; she had to go there herself.
Gu Yulin and Lu Jingxiao refused in unison: "No, you can't go!"
"Why?"
Luo Zhiwei didn't understand. She could understand why Gu Yulin wouldn't allow her to go, but why wouldn't Lu Jingxiao allow her to go either?
Didn't they know how important the jade pendant was to her?
"Weiwei, listen to me, this matter is very complicated. We only have suspicions, we can't be sure..."
Lu Jingxiao was interrupted by a sound coming from outside before he could finish speaking.
Even if we're not sure, we still have to ask and find out!
At this moment, the people who arrived were none other than Gu Youran and Bai Yuxin. The two walked firmly to Luo Zhiwei's side.
Upon seeing Gu Youran, all of Luo Zhiwei's emotions erupted. She threw herself into Gu Youran's arms, her voice choked with sobs, "Ranran, my jade pendant..."
"Don't cry, Weiwei. I'm here. There are so many of us. We'll definitely find it for you."
Gu Youran gently comforted Luo Zhiwei, her voice unusually gentle, a voice none of them had ever heard before.
Bai Yuxin comforted her from the side, "Sister Luo, don't worry, we're here, and my brother is here too. We'll definitely be able to find the jade pendant."
Lu Jingxiao: "..."
Although it was the truth, it sounded so awkward to him.
Weiwei is his girlfriend, so isn't it normal for him to help her find the jade pendant?
Gu Youran gently coaxed Luo Zhiwei for three minutes. After seeing that her emotions had stabilized a little, she raised her eyes and looked at the two big men with a cold expression: "President Gu, President Lu, since you have someone you suspect, then please take me to find the suspect you think is the one."
"Regardless of whether he has anything to do with this or not, he has to give me an explanation."
Gu Youran quickly turned her attention to Gu Yulin, a hint of sarcasm flashing in her eyes: "Mr. Gu, my Weiwei entrusted the jade pendant to you, and this is how you keep it safe?"
Bai Yuxin chimed in from the side, haughtily snorting, "That's right, Brother Gu, what are you doing? Do you know you're making Sister Luo sad!"
After a brief silence, Gu Yulin said awkwardly, "I know, so I will retrieve the jade pendant intact."
No sooner had Gu Yulin left than Gu Youran grabbed Luo Zhiwei and followed. Lu Jingxiao followed behind, saying, "Gu Youran, let go of her right now! You can't go!"
However, Gu Youran ignored her and ran even faster. In the end, the three sisters got into the car.
Bai Yuxin, the driver, excitedly waved her arms and said, "Sister Luo, Sister Youran, sit tight, watch me!"
Swoosh—
I floored the accelerator and sped off.
In this regard, Bai Yuxin is the authority.
The speed was so fast that Lu Jingxiao could barely keep up.
Gu Youran couldn't help but give her a thumbs up: "Xiao Xinxin, you're so cool!"
Bai Yuxin raised an eyebrow proudly: "My skills were all taught by Lu Jingxiao."
Gu Youran, with one arm around Luo Zhiwei, couldn't resist asking gossip, "What exactly is your relationship with Lu Jingxiao?"
Bai Yuxin chuckled: "Sister Luo, Sister Youran, it's a secret, but it will be revealed soon. There's a banquet next Friday, and I'll send you invitations. You must come!"
It was not only her engagement banquet, but also the Bai family's banquet upon returning to the capital, so it was bound to be grand and solemn.
At that time, all the secrets will be revealed. From then on, my cousin and Sister Luo will have no more worries.
The two of them can be together sweetly and happily.
"Okay, but only if you catch up with Gu Yulin's car today."
"no problem!"
Bai Yuxin floored the accelerator and chased after it. Her phone, which was lying to the side, kept ringing, and she knew without even looking that it was Lu Jingxiao calling.
You can't answer the phone at this time.
The moment the call was answered, the composure crumbled.
Lu Jingxiao's phone calls became a death knell; the louder they rang, the faster she drove.
