Chapter 32: Misfortunes never come singly, who is the lady? (2)



pain!

"Hello, Miss Shen." The man called again.

Shen Jiezhu finally looked up and saw a man she had never seen before. He was wearing a black suit and sunglasses. He looked like a bodyguard of an old family and seemed like someone who was not easy to mess with.

Shen Jiezhu blinked her eyes, looking calm.

She didn't sense any malice from the man. He might just be calling her back to the ward?

Is this the bodyguard hired by the Wizarding House?

"Hello, Miss Shen. This is the gift that Madam asked me to give to you."

A box was handed over. It was about two hands long and half a hand wide, and flat. The outermost layer was a layer of red gold velvet, which wrapped the box very beautifully. Even if she didn't know what was inside, she could guess it.

This thing must be very valuable.

Shen Jiezhu didn't answer, but just asked him curiously.

"Who is your wife?"

"I need to keep the identity of the lady a secret, but you will know it soon, Miss Shen."

This scene was really confusing. Shen Jiezhu shook her head and refused his things: "I'm sorry, I don't accept gifts from people I don't know... Hey? Don't run away, take your box away!"

After the man put down the box, he disappeared, running so fast that it seemed that Shen Jiezhu would eat him up if he was a second late.

Sister Shen watched him disappear with her eyes wide open. She tentatively took a half step forward, and her pants were hooked even more.

Shen Jiezhu stood there for a long time, feeling as if she had resigned herself to her fate.

However, her fatalistic attitude did not last long. When a pile of bird droppings fell in front of her, she felt that she should stand up.

Just kidding, can my freedom be restricted by a tiny rose?

Shen Jiezhu gritted her teeth, grabbed her pants with her hands, and pulled hard!

Five minutes later, Shen Jiezhu limped back to the ward holding the box.

Quan Zhilong, who was talking on the phone with his agent, was stunned. He looked down and saw the three arm-long rose branches she was dragging behind her. The longest one was still covered with dirt as it was dragged across the ground.

Sister Shen walked forward with a sense of despair, having lost interest in everything around her.

Roses have so many thorns that she felt as if her lower body was missing.

She pursed her lips silently and forced herself to suppress a smile.

"Okay brother, that's it for now. I'll communicate other arrangements after I'm discharged from the hospital tomorrow."

After hanging up the phone, Quan Zhilong stood up from the sofa and walked towards Shen Jiezhu.

"What are you doing? Going to the roof to weed? What kind of work are you competing with the gardeners for? Did they offend you? Hahahaha!"

Kwon Ji-yong finally couldn't help laughing out loud, the corners of his mouth curled up, and he laughed so hard that he had to bend over to continue speaking.

"Shen Jiezhu, you are really amazing, hahaha! You got yourself into this state just by taking a walk. You've had a lot of minor mishaps recently! Don't move, just stand there. I'll go get you a new set of clothes."

While laughing at her, Quan Zhilong brought back a new hospital gown. Shen Jiezhu silently took the clothes, threw the box on the sofa, and planned to go to the bathroom to change clothes.

Kwon Ji-yong noticed the box she dropped and became curious.

"What is this?"

"Just now a man in black gave it to me, saying it was a gift from their wife. He put the box down and ran away. I was still hanging in the rose bush at the time, so I didn't chase him. I hadn't seen it yet, so I don't know what it is."

"It looks like something important. Are you sure you don't want to take a look?"

Somehow, Kwon Ji-yong always felt that the box in front of him looked familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere before.

"Okay, then I'll go change my clothes after I finish watching."

Shen Jiezhu limped over, picked up the box and opened it.

The first thing that caught my eye was a card that looked extremely luxurious.

There is a paragraph written on it.

[Thank you for catching Park Shik-jin. This is a small token of my appreciation. Please accept it. I am a little busy at work today and cannot visit you. See you tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock! ]

So what is the intention?

Shen Jiezhu moved the card away, and a sapphire necklace came into view.

A huge sapphire fell down, it was a cushion-cut stone with a thumb-sized teardrop-shaped diamond on top, and a small sapphire on top, the color of which was darker than the big one.

The necklace chain is made entirely of diamonds. It takes a long time to search for 50 diamonds of exactly the same texture, color, and saturation. Needless to say, this necklace must be very expensive.

Quan Zhilong recognized the necklace at a glance.

"I have seen this one. It is called by Cartier. The main stone weighs 55.61 carats. It was sold by Christie's in Geneva on May 18 for about US$3.31 million. I was at the auction."

Quan Zhilong looked at it carefully again and became more certain that what he said was correct.

"This is the most expensive necklace ever sold. Who is that lady? Do you know her?"

Sister Shen Zhuguo shook her head.

"I don't know her at all. I've never heard of her before."
