Chapter 332 Backing
"Looks like Thutmose II..." Nie Yao paused and said jokingly, "Looking closely, it doesn't really look like him. I don't know what's wrong with me..."
"Little fool, how could a modern person like me look like an ancient Egyptian pharaoh?" Li Jinxing couldn't help but laugh and pinched her nose. "It seems that our first meeting in the Valley of the Kings in Egypt gave you an illusion!"
As he said this, he felt relieved. He thought she would say that she looked like someone, but it turned out that she just looked like an ancient Egyptian pharaoh. It seemed that he was overthinking it!
"Maybe..." Nie Yao nodded without further hesitation. She adjusted her posture, raised her head from his arms, and said seriously, "But I will do my best to complete the task you asked me to do. Don't worry, no matter whether your family's relic is given to the Egyptian Cultural Heritage Center or not, I will not let you have any regrets!"
Seeing her unprecedented solemn expression, Li Jinxing nodded slightly, held her hand and said with a smile: "Okay, I believe you can help me solve the secret behind this heirloom!"
Perhaps it was because she was too warm in his arms, and because she had been on the road all day, Nie Yao finally couldn't help but doze off in his arms.
Li Jinxing picked up the blanket and covered her with it, then stroked her hair. Looking at her peaceful sleeping face, he couldn't help but sigh silently in his heart.
This silly girl, she clearly has many things to deal with, yet she still can't forget to help him find out about the heirloom...
Except for Nie Yao, every other member of the Nie family... is cunning and calculating, including that old fox, Old Nie!
Recalling the conditions that Old Nie had discussed with him in the old house of the Nie family just now, a dark light flashed in Li Jinxing's eyes.
The Nie family is now in decline. He originally did not intend to be a backer of the Nie family, but now for Nie Yao... he can also change his principles!
Although Nie Yaozhi has no ambition to inherit the Nie family, she is still the daughter of the Nie family. He doesn't want others to think that Nie Yao is a poor daughter one day!
Rather than being the Nie family's backer, it would be more accurate to say that he wants to be her backer!
Even though the Nie family is now on the decline, he will not let the Nie family fall into the hands of others, let alone allow people like Nie Jinxi to seize Nie Yao's rich life for all these years and then try to divide up the property that originally belonged to Nie Yao!
Li Jinxing stroked her face and was lost in thought until his phone dinged and a message popped up.
He picked up his phone and took a look. It was a message from his assistant Li Qin, saying that the large file package Nie Yao gave him contained all the cracked mobile phone communication records, and some clues had been found.
Li Jinxing frowned slightly, looking at the screenshots sent by Li Qin. He opened and enlarged them, and frequently saw the word "Falcon". There was also a text message saying "Cannot be left behind, Operation Scorpion must be implemented!"
"Master Jiu, I suspect that the people behind the scenes are using these code names to command their subordinates..." Li Qin sent another message.
Li Jinxing nodded slightly and sent a voice message: "Have you matched these contents with the time?"
Li Qin's call came quickly. Li Jinxing was worried that Nie Yao would be woken up, so he answered the call almost immediately.
"Master Jiu, I've discovered through research that the scorpion operation was launched the day before the thief died. I remember the autopsy report saying that the thief died from African scorpion venom!"
