Chapter 97: Theft at Home
Li Jinxing, on the other hand, showed no intention of explaining. Nie Yao cleared her throat and was about to explain when Li Qin said to Li Jinxing, "Master Jiu, I'll be leaving first..."
Li Jinxing responded indifferently. Li Qin was about to turn around and leave when his cell phone rang. He hurried to the side and answered the call, his expression becoming serious.
"Okay, I understand..."
Li Qin hung up the phone, walked back to Li Jinxing, and said seriously, "Master Jiu, just as you expected, the home of that investor named Dickson was burglarized!"
Li Jinxing stopped as he was about to pick up the dumplings. His expression remained calm, but his tone became a little deeper.
"Really? What's the situation now? Did he call the police?"
"The police have been called and have rushed to his home to investigate. However, his home is equipped with surveillance cameras, so they should be able to capture the thief!" Assistant Li Qin quickly replied seriously.
Li Jinxing nodded slightly and ordered in a deep voice: "Keep watching the situation over there. Report any progress to me immediately!"
"Yes!" Assistant Li Qin responded respectfully, said goodbye to Nie Yao, and then left the apartment.
Nie Yao felt that the name of the investor her assistant, Li Qin, was familiar. After Li Qin left, she couldn't help but ask, "That investor named Dixon, why does he sound familiar? Was he at the charity auction yesterday?"
Feng Xun nodded and explained with a smile, "Yes, he is the investor who spent 200 million to buy the ancient Egyptian artifact I donated?"
"What? He's the one who took the photo of the Spear of Anubis?" Nie Yao's eyes widened in surprise, thinking she had misheard. "So just now, your assistant said his house was burglarized?"
"Not bad..." Feng Xun nodded happily, picked up his phone and took a look at this morning's news, a sarcastic smile appearing at the corner of his lips.
"Not long after the media reporters reported on yesterday's charity auction, thieves emerged from their caves and targeted him, the big buyer..."
"This action is too fast!"
Nie Yao shook her head in disbelief, her brows furrowed slightly. "Isn't this really planned? Otherwise, why would they immediately go to the investor's house and steal your priceless artifact as soon as they found out he'd bought it?"
Li Jinxing smiled noncommittally and did not answer her.
"It would be such a shame if such a priceless cultural relic was stolen..." Nie Yao was still muttering about this, feeling sad about the theft of the cultural relic, but she found that Li Jinxing looked calm and continued to eat breakfast slowly, as if this matter had nothing to do with him!
"Li Jinxing, shouldn't you be a little shocked?" Nie Yao looked at his calm face and reminded him with some confusion: "That's the collection you donated, and it was auctioned for 200 million!"
Li Jinxing smiled faintly and said nonchalantly, "What's there to be shocked about? I've already donated the items. If the Spear of Anubis is indeed the one stolen, then the one who should be most upset now is Dixon!"
Nie Yao was speechless for a moment after hearing what he said. She simply picked up the remote control and turned on the TV. She turned to the morning news and saw that it was indeed talking about yesterday's charity auction.
While watching the news, she glanced at Li Jinxing's expression. Seeing that he didn't react, she could only curl her lips and mutter softly: "You said that as if you knew this would happen..."
