Chapter 265: Five Hundred Million in Exchange for a Jade Lock
One sentence completely exposed her.
Everyone almost guessed some of it.
But now no one cares who made this incense.
The rash on He Zhuoru's body became more and more serious. Xiao Qishan said, "Achuan, call Doctor Yao over."
Dr. Yao is the Xiao family's family doctor and also returned to China this time.
Xiao Hechuan suddenly thought of something: "Doctor Yao has taken leave to go back to his hometown today, but the Shen family's family doctor should be here today. I'll go get him now."
Shen Nuo's family also has a family doctor. Previously, Shen Nuo's nanny, Wang Ma, had a sudden heart attack.
Xiao Hechuan knew that the family doctor came for a checkup every night these days and usually left at ten o'clock.
He shouldn't have left yet.
"Okay, okay, go and get the Shen family's doctor."
In fact, Xiao Qishan had long forgotten the Shen family and didn't know where it was.
All he could think about now was to quickly ask a doctor to come and treat He Zhuoru.
Xiao Hechuan quickly got up and left.
Xiao Hefan also followed: "I'll go with you."
Here, Xiao Qishan was obviously angry, with a dark face.
Jiang Xiaoxiao also knew that she had caused trouble.
He wanted to put all the blame on Jiang Ciyou.
"Dad, I didn't know there was something wrong with this incense. I really didn't know. This incense was made by Jiang Ciyou. This is all Jiang Ciyou's fault."
Jiang Xiaoxiao walked up to He Zhuoru: "Uncle Xiao, Aunt He, I really didn't know there was something wrong with the incense, I didn't mean to..."
Xiao Qishan sneered, "Miss Jiang just said that you made the incense yourself, but now you're clueless. Whether you're shirking responsibility or lying from the beginning, Miss Jiang's character is truly unspeakable."
Jiang Xiaoxiao stood there in a daze, not knowing what to do for a moment.
Xiao Qishan said, "Mr. Jiang, I originally thought this child had some connection with us, and I even gave her the heirloom I had intended for my daughter. However, facts have proven that our Xiao family and your daughter are not destined to be together. In this case, please return our family heirloom jade lock to me, Mr. Jiang."
"I, Xiao Qishan, know that things given away cannot be taken back, but that piece of jade is a family heirloom. It's not worth much on the market, but it's very meaningful to our family. I'm willing to exchange 500 million for this jade lock. I hope Mr. Jiang understands."
Jiang Jinhui was already feeling hopeless.
But unexpectedly, Xiao Qishan finally asked for 500 million to get the jade lock back.
To be honest, this is a piece of cake.
Now that the company's shares have plummeted and its capital chain has broken, it needs money.
The bank is being stingy and the loan is delayed.
If the capital chain is really broken, the Jiang family will really go bankrupt.
These 500 million yuan are a timely help, not to mention that it is 500 million yuan in cash flow, and its market value will increase several times.
Besides, if the jade cannot be attached to the Xiao family, it is just like a stone to him.
Jiang Jinhui was extremely happy in his heart, but he still pretended to be regretful and heartbroken on his face.
"Mr. Xiao, what are you talking about? It's my fault that I failed to live up to my expectations and disappointed you. The jade pendant originally belonged to the Xiao family, and we should return it."
After saying that, he said to Jiang Xiaoxiao: "Xiaoxiao, why don't you return the things to Mr. Xiao."
Although Jiang Jinhui spoke politely, he did not ask for the 500 million.
One reason is that the Jiang family is a well-known family in Rongcheng, and he also has to maintain some dignity.
Secondly, he knew that for a century-old prestigious family like the Xiao family, 500 million was nothing to them.
Now that I have said it, I will never go back on my word.
On the other side, Jiang Xiaoxiao was completely defeated when she heard these words.
Why should the jade pendant be returned?
Even if the Xiao family agreed to give 500 million, it would only be 500 million.
Compared with the Xiao family's wealth of hundreds of billions, what is this 500 million?
She wants to be the daughter-in-law of the Xiao family. This is her only chance to surpass Jiang Ciyou.
Only by climbing up the ranks of the Xiao family can she be on equal footing with Jiang Ciyou, and step on her step by step in the future.
But now the mission has failed, and Xiao Qishan has a very bad impression of her.
What should she do.
How can I make Xiao Qishan change his impression and have a good impression of me?
At this moment, Jiang Xiaoxiao only thought of one solution.
She said righteously, "Uncle Xiao, we won't take your five hundred million. This jade pendant was originally given to me by you. I was wrong today. I wanted to please you and Aunt Zhuo so much, so I deceived you. This incense was not made by me. I'm sorry. I don't want to make excuses. I can only say sorry and ask for your forgiveness."
Jiang Xiaoxiao's expression looked very sincere.
She took out a brocade box from her bag.
Then he walked over to Xiao Qishan, looking as if he was about to cry but also extremely forbearing.
"Uncle Xiao, Aunt He, I'm really sorry today. This incense was made by someone and given to me. They said it has the effect of calming the nerves and helping me sleep, so I wanted to give it to Aunt He. To express my feelings, I lied and said I made it myself. I admit that I am very vain. Aunt He, Uncle Xiao, I was wrong. Please forgive me."
Jiang Xiaoxiao finally choked up at the end of her speech.
Tears flowed down like beads from a broken string.
She bent over ninety degrees, looking extremely pious.
When Jiang Jinhui heard Jiang Xiaoxiao say that she didn't want 500 million, he clenched his fingers into fists.
This rebellious girl doesn't even want 500 million!
Does she know the company's situation?
Why is she pretending to be noble by spending 500 million yuan here?
Jiang Jinhui wanted to spit out blood and die on the spot.
Seeing Jiang Xiaoxiao's expression, Xiao Qishan sighed, helped her up, and said in a much gentler voice, "You still have some backbone."
"In that case, let's forget about the five hundred million. You're such a man of integrity, and I'm not willing to use it to humiliate you."
When Jiang Jinhui heard this, his chest ached as if pierced by a sword.
His whole body was shaking, his head was heavy and his feet were light, and he could hardly stand.
Yao Shulan supported his arm from behind, and he was able to stand still.
Jiang Xiaoxiao straightened up, looking pitiful: "Uncle Xiao, Aunt He, please don't be angry with me, okay?"
He Zhuoru patted Xiao Qishan's hand.
Xiao Qishan said, "You know your mistakes and you correct them. Seeing that you are so sincere, I will let it go."
He Zhuoru actually didn't have any special feelings for this child.
But before that, Xiao Qishan often mentioned to her the girl who gave her the jade.
They said how cute she was and that if their daughter were still alive, she would definitely look like that.
So at the beginning, she was also very much looking forward to it.
Although the child did not grow up to be what they imagined.
But it was fate after all.
Jiang Xiaoxiao wiped away her tears and suddenly laughed. She immediately took Xiao Qishan's arm and said, "Uncle Xiao, can I still come to visit you in the future?"
Xiao Qishan frowned slightly, but still nodded reluctantly: "Okay."
