Chapter 45: The Crown is up for auction, highest bidder wins!



"You're not allowed to get up unless I tell you to!"

Jiang Yuchen frowned first, "What are you talking about? It's just a joke, why are you taking it so seriously!"

"Third cousin, didn't you see her hit me?!" Lin Zhiyao stomped her foot angrily.

It was only then that Jiang Yuchen noticed the slap mark on her face.

However, between his cousin and his younger sister, he chose his younger sister.

What's more, this younger sister had even saved his life.

"Ahem, she was probably just too angry for a moment, don't take it to heart."

"Okay, let her apologize to you. Later, your third cousin will take you shopping. You can buy whatever you want."

"If you have this spare money, you might as well buy it for me." Jiang Ningxi gave him a disgruntled look.

Then he looked at the few people standing at the door and said.

"I never said I really couldn't find it."

Jiang Yuchen winked at her, signaling her not to be stubborn.

"We've searched the entire room, but it's not there."

"If you're so capable, why don't you just conjure it out of thin air?" Lin Zhiyao raised her chin high, her face, bearing the handprint of a slap, full of smugness.

She was certain that no one could find where she had hidden her things.

Jiang Ningxi thought for a moment, wondering if there was anywhere in the room she hadn't looked.

Finally, his gaze drifted towards the direction of the bathroom.

At that moment, she noticed a hint of nervousness flash in Lin Zhilan's eyes.

Good grief, she didn't actually hide the crown in the bathroom, did she?!

How is she supposed to wear it in the future?!

The next second, she rushed towards the bathroom.

Lin Zhiyao saw this and immediately knew something was wrong, so she quickly went to stop her.

"You, you stop right there!"

But how could she possibly stop Jiang Ningxi?

Soon, Jiang Ningxi started searching in the bathroom.

But there was nothing, absolutely nothing.

But why be nervous if Lin Zhiyao isn't there?

She must have missed something.

Finally, his gaze fell on the water tank behind the dock.

At that moment, she had made her decision.

If the crown really is in the water tank behind the toilet, she will definitely make Lin Zhiyao pay the price!

When she opened the water tank, she actually found a delivery box inside.

Luckily, the outer packaging of this express box had a waterproof film, otherwise it would have been soaked to pieces long ago.

Seeing that Jiang Ningxi had actually found the item.

Everyone looked at Lin Zhiyao.

It was as if they really hadn't expected her to do that.

Lin Zhiyao bit her lip, her eyes red. "I... I didn't mean to. I just wanted to vent my anger for Xinyao."

"Just hide it for now, we'll return it to her in a few days!"

"I'm giving you two choices: one, kneel down and apologize; two, I'll call the police and have you arrested!" Jiang Ningxi's icy gaze shot towards the person opposite her.

Lin Zhiyao panicked.

He turned to Lin Jiangyue for help.

"Auntie, Auntie, I really didn't mean to, sob sob sob—"

"I was just joking."

Lin Jiangyue looked at Jiang Ningxi with difficulty and said, "Let Zhiyao apologize to you, and let's just let this matter go. It would be too embarrassing if we made a big fuss about it."

"She's the one who's ugly, what does that have to do with me?"

After a while, Jiang Ningxi said coldly, "There is a third solution."

"What? What? Tell me quickly!" Lin Zhiyao stared at her anxiously with her red and swollen eyes.

Jiang Ningxi glanced at her and thought, "Tsk, if it weren't for her seemingly low IQ..."

She won't show any mercy.

"You've ruined this crown, how am I supposed to wear it now!"

"You have to buy me a new one! And it has to be one I like!"

Lin Zhiyao was instantly devastated.

Buy a new one? How could she possibly afford it?

She could only look at Lin Jiangyue with pleading eyes once again.

"Auntie, where am I going to get so much money? Waaah—"

"Didn't your parents teach you that you should apologize and make amends if you break someone else's things?" Jiang Ningxi continued to ask, looking at her.

"But your stuff isn't broken!" Lin Zhiyao shouted defiantly.

Jiang Ningxi raised an eyebrow. "How about this, let me beat you up, as long as I don't kill you?"

Lin Zhiyao shrank back, somewhat frightened.

My cheek is still aching slightly.

"Waaah, Auntie, what should I do?"

Lin Jiangyue was so angry that she had a headache.

He raised his hand and rubbed his throbbing temples.

Then he glanced at Jiang Yuchuan on the other side.

Jiang Yuchuan frowned immediately.

He's already bought it, so it's impossible for him to buy it again.

It's impossible for him, and it's even more impossible for Jiang Yuheng and Jiang Yuchuanchen.

Jiang Yuchen had previously promised Jiang Ningxi that she would hire a designer to design a dress and crystal shoes for her, and her credit card was almost empty.

Where would I find the means to buy another crown?

After considering all the options, Lin Jiangyue could only rely on herself in the end.

"Okay, I'll buy you a new crown. You don't want the one you have now anyway, so give it to me."

Jiang Ningxi burst into laughter.

That's quite a clever plan.

I sold this one and bought a new one, so it's like I didn't spend a single penny.

With that in mind, she opened the package directly.

The blue premium leather combination lock case inside was revealed.

The box was so nice, and it was ruined like this. It breaks my heart!

After entering the password, the box opened with a click.

Inside, a luxurious crown studded with diamonds was revealed.

So beautiful!

Unfortunately, having spent time in a toilet tank, she really didn't want to wear it on her head.
