Chapter 98 Lure the snake out of its hole
She had just said it casually, but seeing that Li Jinxing just smiled and said nothing, as if nothing had happened, he continued to enjoy his breakfast leisurely, which made her feel a little suspicious.
"Could it be that you really expected the theft to happen?" Nie Yao asked in surprise.
Li Jinxing was still enjoying his breakfast and nodded slightly as a response.
"You really predicted this a long time ago..." Nie Yao stared at him with wide eyes and asked in disbelief, "Li Jinxing, don't tell me that from the moment you donated the Spear of Anubis to the investor buying it, and then his house being robbed, this whole sequence was all within your predictions!"
She couldn't believe he was such a thoughtful person, and even more so, she couldn't believe he would do such a thing...
Li Jinxing met her shocked gaze, then put down his chopsticks and slowly said, "Do you remember when you saved my life in the Valley of the Kings in Egypt?"
"Of course I remember. It was a very windy and sandy day. You were buried in the sand and bleeding. Luckily, my junior and I found you in time, otherwise the consequences would have been disastrous..."
Not to mention the sheer size of the entire Valley of the Kings, when the sandstorms were too strong, few staff would stay on site. Li Jinxing, shot, would be buried in the sandstorm. It's likely that his body wouldn't be discovered until rigor mortis had set in for a long time and the sandstorm had completely cleared...
"That's right. The group of people who plotted against me were after the things in my hand. Moreover, they have many informants and their methods are ruthless. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been ambushed by them in Egypt!"
Li Jinxing's tone became more serious when he said this: "I suspect they have an insider here, so I deliberately used this method to donate an ancient Egyptian collection and lure them out..."
Nie Yao suddenly realized, and she rested her chin on her hand as she spoke thoughtfully, "So, so many media outlets reported on this charity auction. It was so loud, it attracted their attention, and then they took action. That's why the investor Dixon, who bought the collection, had his home burglarized!"
After she said this, she breathed a sigh of relief. She knew that things were not that simple, but it was not as she feared!
At least she didn't misjudge Li Jinxing!
"I guessed that they would take action, but I didn't expect them to be so impatient..." Li Jinxing raised a sarcastic smile at the corner of his lips, picked up the soy milk in front of him and took a few sips.
"Who are these people you are talking about, and why are they so cruel?" Nie Yao frowned slightly and looked at him with some concern.
In order to obtain the ancient Egyptian collections, they resorted to any means possible. It's really terrible!
Li Jinxing didn't explain, but just whispered, "This is a long story. In fact, even I don't understand their real motives. Maybe they are after me, or maybe they are just after money!"
"It all depends on whether they will stop after they steal the Spear of Anubis..." Nie Yao sighed softly.
At this time, she didn't know whether to sympathize with the investor named Dickson or worry about Li Jinxing's safety.
"No!" Li Jinxing said almost with certainty.
Nie Yao was stunned for a moment, then met Li Jinxing's determined gaze and asked hesitantly, "Are you saying that their ultimate goal isn't the Spear of Anubis?"
