Chapter 48 Two car accidents in two days
Just as I was thinking about it, an emerald bracelet slowly rose from the exhibition stand.
As the auctioneer struck the hammer, the bidding started at six million, and she was the first to raise the price.
"Six and a half million!"
Ye Shuran followed closely behind: "Seven million!"
"Seven and a half million!"
"Eight million!"
Ye Shuran seemed to be in conflict with her.
Ye Jinmo looked down at her bag, which contained the card her elder brother gave her.
Although there is no upper limit, it doesn't seem appropriate to spend like this.
She had just spent 1.2 million to buy medicinal herbs. She would find a suitable return gift for Grandma Ji later!
Thinking of this, she gave up the bidding.
Ji Sichen glanced at the girl's lost brows and slowly said, "Twenty million."
Ye Shuran wanted to bid again, but was pulled back by Jin Fan.
"Shu Ran, let's look at something else!"
Her anger suddenly surged up in her heart, but she didn't dare to get angry on the spot: "Didn't you say that you would buy me whatever I like?"
Jin Fan was helpless: "What Mr. Ji likes, do you think the two of us combined can match him?"
Hearing this, she bit her lip and sat down angrily.
She originally thought that she could suppress Ye Jinmo by hooking up with the young master of the Jin family, but it turned out to be completely useless!
No, she has to find another man quickly. She can't just hang herself on a dead tree!
Ji Sichen bought the emerald bracelet for 20 million yuan.
Ye Jinmo got up and went to the bathroom.
Little did she know that someone was quietly following her.
She pushed the door open and entered the bathroom, lowering her head to report today's results to her brother on the phone.
Suddenly, there was a rustling sound outside the door.
She had a bad feeling and tried to push the door again, but it wouldn't open.
A wobbly bucket appeared on the door, and a few drops of water dripped down.
Her eyes flashed, she put her phone away and jumped onto the toilet.
Just as the bucket was pouring down, she raised her hand and turned the bucket upside down.
“Crash…”
As the water flowed, a sharp female voice sounded.
"My clothes!"
Ye Jinmo held onto the door and climbed down using her arms.
The person who got wet was none other than the young woman who had just blocked her at the door.
"How dare you splash water on me!" The woman's clothes were soaked by water, and her exquisite hairstyle was stuck to her face.
She pushed her hair aside and raised her hand to fan her in the face.
Ye Jinmo grabbed her wrist and pushed her back, causing the woman to stagger a few steps.
"You dare to push me, do you know who I am?"
Ye Jinmo took away the stick that was blocking the door and threw it aside: "No matter who you are, I have no grudge against you, why are you trying to hurt me?"
"No grudges? Humph, look at the clothes I'm wearing! Let me tell you, don't think you can rise to the top just by hanging out with Mr. Ji. A poor girl like you will be kicked out sooner or later!"
Ye Jinmo frowned and recalled in her mind that she seemed not to have seen this woman at the last banquet.
She initially prevented her elder brother from disclosing her identity information to the media.
So although her identity was public, only the noble families who were on good terms with the Zhong family knew about it.
Seeing that she didn't speak, the woman thought she was scared, wiped the water off her face, and raised her neck proudly: "Today you not only bullied me, but also bullied Shu Ran. Shu Ran didn't let me deal with you. She took into account that you are her relative and didn't want to do it. I must teach you a lesson today!"
After saying that, the woman quickly picked up the stick on the ground and threw it at her.
Ye Jinmo dodged and grabbed the woman's arm from behind.
In an instant, the woman felt numb all over and had no strength, and the stick in her hand fell to the ground.
"I don't care who you are. If you do such a thing in a place like this and it gets out, even your well-off family will be under pressure from public opinion." Ye Jinmo loosened his hand and looked at the woman who collapsed on the ground with cold eyes.
The woman was about to retort, but it seemed as if all the strength had been drained from her body. She was unable to utter a word and could only stare at her angrily.
"You will be back in half an hour."
Ye Jinmo left a few words and left the bathroom.
She sent a message to Ji Sichen, then left the auction house and walked around to get some fresh air.
The greenery in this area is very good, there are few vehicles passing by, and it is so quiet that you can hear the birds singing in the trees.
She was wandering on the side of the road, unaware of the danger approaching from behind.
A truck rushed out from not far away, its license plate covered with a black cloth, and sped towards her at a very fast speed.
"Jinmo, be careful!"
Before she could react, someone grabbed her arm, and with a turn, both of them fell to the ground.
The truck passed by them at a very fast speed.
She was held in Ji Sichen's arms, and only her arm was slightly scratched.
Ji Sichen's elbow was extensively bruised, with dust from the road covering the wound, making it look hideous.
Ye Jinmo was shocked and hurriedly helped him up. She looked at the truck running away and felt a chill in her heart.
The car was coming for her.
She retracted her gaze: "Let's go in and bandage the wound."
In the lounge.
The person in charge brought a medical kit.
She helped Ji Sichen treat his wound with a stern face.
The air in the huge room was quiet.
She really couldn't figure out who wanted to kill her!
As if seeing through her thoughts, Ji Sichen patted her shoulder soothingly: "Don't worry, I will investigate this matter."
She nodded silently and bandaged his wound with skillful techniques, with mixed emotions in her heart.
"It's me who got you hurt again today."
The man rubbed her head, pulled her to sit on the sofa, and said softly: "I brought you here today. If something happens to you, how can I explain to your family?"
"That's what you said, but if I hadn't walked out you wouldn't have..."
"Okay, I'm fine now, I'll take you home later."
The Zhong family naturally knew about the car accident, and they surrounded her as soon as she got home.
Mother Zhong looked worried: "How come there were two car accidents in two days?"
Ye Jinmo held her hand soothingly: "I'm fine, thanks to Ji Sichen."
Mother Zhong nodded: "Mom will come to thank you in person with gifts someday. Jinmo, let's pick a day in the next few days to go to the temple to pray and pray for peace."
Ye Jinmo responded.
Suddenly, a male voice sounded from behind.
"Is this Sister Jinmo?"
She turned around and saw a figure slowly walking down the stairs.
His features are somewhat similar to those of his elder brother, but he is more sinister, especially his eyes, which are wet like a poisonous snake.
She disliked this person for no reason.
Mother Zhong introduced: "This is your cousin Bochuan, one year younger than your eldest brother. You met him the day you first came back to our house."
Hearing this, Ye Jinmo searched for memories in her mind.
On the first day she returned to the Zhong family, Mr. Zhong called back almost all the family members.
At that time, Zhong Bochuan was lost in the crowd and did not speak to her.
Out of politeness she smiled and said, "Cousin."
"I heard that Sister Jinmo had a car accident. Is she okay?" Zhong Bochuan smiled, but his eyes, as black as a lake of water, were filled with a chill that made people shudder.
She felt very uncomfortable being stared at by him, as if she was entangled by a poisonous snake, and she frowned imperceptibly.
The man tilted his head, crossed his arms, and looked her up and down. He was speaking to Mother Zhong: "Aunt, I know you love your daughter dearly, but you can't be too indulgent. If you don't answer the elders' questions, when did our Zhong family become so unruly?"
