"How much are you offering?" Shi Jixian took a sip of tea and asked slowly.
"Mr. Shi should know that sapphires are rare, and one of this size is even rarer. I almost lost everything I had for this piece just to make my girlfriend happy. Unfortunately, the Zhou family is in trouble now, so we have to sell it." Zhou Yishen said with melancholy. He didn't know the specific price of the sapphire, so it would be better for Shi Ji to give the price first.
Moreover, Shi Jixian would not do anything to lower the price. If the item makes him happy, he might even offer a higher price!
Shi Jixian was a little surprised. He hadn't expected the Zhou family's heir to be so shameless. He actually claimed to have bought the sapphire. This sapphire was worth a lot of money. Everyone in the Zhou family knew that the family wasn't wealthy.
"Really? Is this lady willing too? After all, it's a gift for you, are you willing to give it to her?" Shi Jixian looked at Qin Xueyi. She looked like a little bird, but her eyesight was not very good. How could she like such a person?
"Yes, everything I have belongs to him, so I'm willing to give it to him no matter what he wants!" Qin Xueyi looked at Zhou Yishen affectionately.
"Xueyi, don't worry. When I earn money back, I will buy you more expensive jewelry!" Zhou Yishen didn't expect Qin Xueyi to say this, and he was very moved.
Xue Yi? Isn't the daughter of the Ling family called Ling Xiaoxiao? Although Shi Jixian had never seen the daughter of the Ling family, he still knew her name.
"What's the young lady's last name?" Shi Jixian asked calmly. If this woman wasn't the daughter of the Ling family, then why was the sapphire in their possession? Was there a thief in the Ling family?
"My surname is Qin, my full name is Qin Xueyi, and I'm an artist under Xingyao." Qin Xueyi said embarrassedly. She didn't expect Shi Jixian to ask her name. Is he interested in her?
Interesting, and she's an entertainer, meaning she has no connection to the Ling family. So, the Ling's daughter gave the sapphire to the Zhou heir, and then it was passed on to this person in front of him? Shi Jixian felt like he could imagine a big drama in his mind. He didn't expect the Ling's daughter to be so generous, giving away hundreds of millions of dollars without hesitation.
However, even someone like him who doesn't pay attention to the outside world has heard about her throwing herself at Zhou Yishen, which shows that she doesn't care about a few hundred million at all.
But why didn't Zhou Yishen go directly to the daughter of the Ling family, but instead sold her things?
Just when Shi Jixian was puzzled, his assistant knocked on the door and handed him a tablet computer.
He took the tablet and glanced at his assistant with some displeasure. "What a lack of insight!" He asked. "Can't you see he's thinking?" "Do you want to stop working by interrupting him?"
The assistant gestured to the boss to look at the computer. He didn't want to come in at this time either! However, this was a statement from the Ling family. If the boss wasn't informed earlier, he would be able to distinguish them earlier if he received any of the Ling family's dirty stuff!
Zhou Yishen and Qin Xueyi were confused. They had been discussing the price, but why was Shi Jixian looking at his computer? Could it be something important?
Shi Jixian was checking the list in his hand, which contained both pictures and text explanations. When he turned to the sapphire, he gave the two people sitting opposite him a meaningful look.
Unexpectedly, it was different from what he guessed? This thing was actually stolen? However, Zhou Yishen actually dared to steal things from the Ling family, which made him look at him in a different light!
He whispered a few words into his assistant's ear, then poured tea for the two of them.
"I'm sorry, I, as your assistant, just don't have good eyesight. I just rushed here because of some things at the company. I'm really sorry." Shi Jixian said without any apology. After all, he could still maintain a pleasant expression and talk to those who stole things, which showed that he was very considerate of them.
"It's okay, Mr. Shi, let's continue what we were talking about just now. How much are you willing to pay for this sapphire?" Zhou Yishen felt that there was something wrong with Shi Jixian's attitude. He could clearly feel his politeness to them just now, but now he didn't have that feeling?
"Don't be in a hurry. Master Zhou, this is your first time visiting my Shi family, right? I'll take you out for a walk, and then we'll talk about the price." Shi Jixian stood up and stretched his body, then asked the two of them to go out together and take a walk in the garden outside.
Although the two were unwilling, they had no choice. After all, the rich ones were the bosses, and Shi Jixian was the boss who saved them from suffering!
When the Ling family received the news, Ling Xiaoxiao was drinking Tremella soup. She hadn't expected that the proof, which had just been issued last night, would be announced today? Qin Xueyi actually brought Zhou Yishen with her to sell her sapphire?
"Miss, what should we do now?" Uncle Mo had never expected that the people who stole Miss's things were actually Zhou Yishen and Qin Xueyi! One of these two people is Miss's favorite person, and the other is Miss's favorite best friend. Who knows what Miss will do?
"I lost something so valuable, shouldn't I call the police?" Ling Xiaoxiao put down the spoon in her hand and said innocently, "This is a society ruled by law! Since we know the thief, why not just call the police!"
Uncle Mo's worried face instantly became relieved. The young lady has really grown up. He thought that the young lady would not believe that those two people would treat her like this!
. . .
When the police arrived at Shi Jixian's house, Zhou Yishen and Qin Xueyi were both surprised. Could it be that something had happened to Shi Jixian and he was being taken away? Then who should they sell their sapphires to?
"Sorry to bother you, Mr. Shi. We are here to look for Qin Xueyi and Zhou Yishen." A police officer said to Shi Jixian.
"It doesn't matter, they are the ones. If you have any problems, just go find them." Shi Jixian made a gesture of invitation. He was afraid that they would catch people in the house and damage the things he liked in the house, so he specially got them out!
"What? Why are you looking for us? We're law-abiding citizens!" Zhou Yishen had never been to the police station in his life! And he hadn't done anything wrong, so why were they looking for him?
Qin Xueyi didn't expect the police to come looking for her! Trembling, she grabbed the corner of Zhou Yishen's clothes and hid behind him.
She couldn't be taken away! If reporters caught her going to the police station, her star journey, which hadn't even begun, would be over!
"We received a report that the two of you stole something, so we're taking you to the police station for investigation. Don't worry, we won't wrongly accuse a good person, but we won't let a bad guy go either." After the police officer said this, he had them taken away and put in the police car.
