Chapter 9 Double-crossing



Reluctantly, I sat down, adhering to the principle of "if you're going to eat it, you might as well eat it," and picked up a fried dough stick to soak in the soy milk.

I do know her preferences; I know she loves this, so I bought it early in the morning to please her.

She knew perfectly well what they were up to; it was all about the Su family's wealth.

That was the money her mother left her to make a living; she couldn't expect to get a single penny from her.

Besides, she has a jade pendant and a spatial storage space. All those things are already stored in her space, making them easier to access in the future.

Even if you search the whole world, you won't find these people, and you don't need to worry about them being taken away.

"Speak. What is it?"

The three people at the dinner table awkwardly touched their noses in unison. Su Ying had changed; she was no longer shy as before, and now she spoke without giving anyone any face.

Although Jiang Yibo was very embarrassed, he had to maintain his refined image for the sake of his family fortune.

"Yingying, was what you said last night true?"

Su Ying's lips curled into a sneer as she spoke in her sweetest voice, "It's true. Before my mother left, she called me to her bedside and only told me about these three locations. If none of these three locations contain what you want, then there really isn't anything left."

“It’s also possible that my mom donated to the disaster area but forgot to tell me, which led you all to believe that my mom left me a lot of money. I’m also very distressed. No one believes me when I tell the truth. It’s really unfair.”

Jiang Yibo gave an awkward smile, touched his nose, and tried to look as natural as possible.

“Aunt Su has always had a very good memory; she couldn’t possibly have forgotten something so important. Perhaps there’s something else going on.”

Su Ying answered decisively, "No. Those three places you couldn't find, maybe they've been emptied out over the past few years."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yibo refused to believe that the thief could smell the scent and specifically target the Su family.

He's not stupid; how could he possibly believe something so fake?

There must be something he doesn't know.

"Sakura is really good at joking."

Su Ying answered firmly, "I never like to joke."

After saying that, he ignored the three people at the table, pulled out his chair, and stood up.

"I have other things to do, you guys take your time eating."

Xu Ziming looked at her strangely, "Where are you going? We'll meet at the South Wharf at eight o'clock tonight. Don't forget about this. Why don't you just stay home and leave Shanghai together tonight?"

Upon hearing this, Su Ying's lips curled into a coldness that even her fake smile couldn't conceal.

He talks a good game, but he's nothing but a scapegoat.

I never even considered taking her away from Shanghai.

"Because I'm going to Taiwan soon and will never be able to come back for the rest of my life, I have to say goodbye to my classmates properly, because I may never see them again in this lifetime."

After saying that, Su Ying strode out of the living room and walked outside.

Xu Zhiming gave Jiang Yibo a look, and the latter immediately understood and strode after him.

Neither of them believed that Su Wanning had left any money for Su Ying. Now, with less than a day left before they had to leave Shanghai, Su Ying's departure at this time seemed rather suspicious.

Following her might lead them to what they want, Jiang Yibo thought, getting more and more excited. Maybe he could find a lot of wealth by following Su Ying.

We're rich! We're rich!

As Su Ying walked, she sensed something was wrong. She turned around and saw the man rushing and looking extremely disheveled as he hid behind a nearby building.

Su Ying's eyes were full of mockery. She thought that someone who possessed a spatial ability was overestimating himself and didn't have any skills.

This old lady will have some fun with you.

There was an awkward person watching her from behind, and Su Ying's lips curled up.

He deliberately went to a secluded place, and seeing that no one was around, he slipped into his spatial dimension.

Jiang Yibo, who was chasing closely behind, came to a dead end and looked at the scene in disbelief.

He clearly saw people coming this way, and he followed them closely, but they suddenly disappeared.

After searching the neighborhood for half an hour without finding anyone, I slunk away.

"I clearly saw people walking this way, but I can't find them. It's strange, it's like a ghost."

Su Ying ate to her heart's content in the space, including the food she bought yesterday.

She always liked the food at the Peace Hotel, so she packed a lot of food and put it on the table to eat whenever she got hungry.

The space is so convenient; it even saves me the trouble of heating food. I guess I need to learn how to cook, otherwise I won't know how to prepare all this food I've bought.

Life was tough when you were sent to the countryside or the mountains. If the smell of meat often wafted out of her house, it would be quite conspicuous.

Strangers cannot be allowed into the space; if you want to eat something delicious, you can only cook it in the space.

I'll just buy whatever cooked food I see when I go out later; that should last me a while.

Having eaten and drunk her fill, Su Ying saw that it was almost time and came out of the space.

Only after the dog that clung to him that he hated the most disappeared did he ride his bicycle south towards the black market.

As they approached their destination, Su Ying entered her spatial dimension. When she came out, she had disguised herself as an old woman, a disheveled rural woman.

Su Ying gave herself a perfect score for her outfit; even if her scumbag father stood in front of her, he wouldn't recognize her now.

Today is the last day for purchasing; I have to go to the countryside tomorrow morning.

Director Li is indeed reliable; he handled everything for her and, to avoid any oversights, informed her by phone.

very nice.

Director Li is also avoiding any appearance of impropriety.

But it doesn't matter as long as the goal is achieved.

Once inside the black market, Su Ying looked at the dazzling array of goods and wanted to buy this and that, but she had no money and no tickets, which put her in a bit of a predicament.
