"What's wrong with you? Could you be pregnant?" Aunt Zhou asked excitedly.
"No." Jiang Xue replied irritably, which was when she was at her worst.
Seeing that Jiang Xue was in a bad mood, Aunt Zhou didn't say anything more. She was puzzled. Most people would be happy to encounter such a thing, so why was Jiang Xue so impatient?
Aunt Zhou was also from the countryside, and she knew about how much Jiang Xue's wedding cost and why she couldn't get pregnant.
She thought for a moment and shook her head. It seemed that Jiang Xue was simply unwilling to take it seriously.
"Child, you watch over things for a while. I'm going to check on Gu Xiaoling. She's a grown woman; how can she let someone fool her?"
Jiang Xue grumbled for a bit before going to find Gu Xiaoling. She had just praised Gu Xiaoling for her rapid progress, but in just a few days, Gu Xiaoling had returned to her innocent, carefree life.
"You go ahead, I'll keep an eye on the child for you."
Seeing that Shaoheng and Shaomeng were being looked after by Aunt Zhou, Jiang Xue didn't linger.
Gu Xiaoling stood outside the shop, where the roller shutter door was pulled down.
Gu Xiaoling had seen it before; it wasn't small, about eighty square meters, which was more than enough for fast food and snacks.
Even if we hire new employees later, we can still get it up and running.
In addition to rows of newly built residential buildings, there are also schools nearby.
Gu Xiaoling had put in a lot of effort to find this shop.
When Gu Xiaoling, who was completely lost, saw Jiang Xue arrive, she felt as if she had seen a savior.
"Boss, I've been scammed, what should I do?"
Jiang Xue shook her head as she looked at Gu Xiaoling's tearful face. "What's the use of crying here?"
Jiang Xue looked around. Such a large storefront couldn't possibly be without a landlord; it was probably the landlord who was behind this.
Did you call the police?
"I reported it, but it was useless because there was no useful information."
Ji Dong crossed his arms, looking nonchalant. He had actually wanted to leave a long time ago, but Gu Xiaoling stopped him, crying and begging him to go catch the swindler. Where could he possibly catch the swindler?
This is no joke.
Jiang Xue said to Ji Dong, "Go to my shop and take the two children back first."
Before Ji Dong could react, he vanished in an instant.
"Then how do we get our money back?"
Jiang Xue didn't answer Gu Xiaoling immediately, but instead pondered, how could such a large store not have an owner?
There's also the possibility that it's a scammer using their own store to swindle people.
Jiang Xue originally thought of fishing and getting caught by a scammer, but after thinking it over, she realized it wasn't realistic because the scammer would definitely know the market.
"Pry open the door, then we'll renovate."
"What renovations? If the boss comes back and takes the shop back, we'll go bankrupt!"
Jiang Xue wouldn't be foolish enough to throw money into it; she was just putting on an act. Didn't she say there was no landlord? Didn't she say she'd never seen the landlord? Well, the shop's walls have been smashed up. Let's see if the landlord will still sit still then.
Jiang Xue suspected that the landlord was probably connected to the swindler.
Otherwise, how could they cooperate so well? Neither of the neighbors has ever seen the landlord. This is too strange.
Jiang Xue went next door and asked, "Do you have a screwdriver or a hammer?"
At worst, the roller shutter door will be smashed. The cost of replacing the roller shutter door is nothing compared to losing such a large sum of rent.
