"What did you say? The Liu family's antiques?" Liu Miaoyin said in disbelief.
Indeed, just by hearing the name, one can tell that most of these properties belong to the Liu family, so it's no wonder Liu Miaoyin was excited.
Liu Miaoyin never expected that Zou Wenjun would secretly meet her lover right under her father's nose.
Gu Lili also sighed, "Zou Wenjun really knows how to have fun."
They even understand the principle that the most dangerous place is the safest place.
Gu Lili nodded and said, "It is indeed the Liu family antiques, and the two of them are not just having an affair, they also use the Liu family's money to secretly resell things!"
Judging from the way Zhang Hong and Zhou Yang acted, they must often do such opportunistic things.
Zhang Hong is truly amazing. Not only does he sleep with his employer's wife, but he also uses his employer's money to make more money.
After hearing this, Liu Miaoyin was so angry that her teeth itched.
That bastard Liu Yuanliang has imprisoned my mother, yet he has no ability to manage the Liu family's shops.
That's incredibly stupid!
As they were talking, Chang'an arrived late.
Chang'an sat down and recounted what he had seen to the others.
"After Lili left, in less than the time it takes to drink two cups of tea, I saw Zou Wenjun come out from inside. Then came the shopkeeper. Seeing that Zou Wenjun was heading towards the Liu family, I simply followed the shopkeeper."
Gu Lili strongly agreed with Chang'an's approach; knowing oneself and one's enemy is the key to defeating them.
Judging from Chang'an's appearance, Gu Lili guessed that he must have seen some important news.
As expected, Chang'an continued, "That shopkeeper actually took a luminous pearl to the black market to sell. After the shopkeeper left, I inquired and found out that the luminous pearl sold for a high price of three thousand nine hundred taels. I guess that luminous pearl must be related to you, Lili."
Chang'an's intuition told him that this luminous pearl must be related to Gu Lili.
After all, he had a flashlight that the wind couldn't blow out, and a ball that could glow, so he didn't hesitate to use it.
Gu Lili smiled sheepishly and touched her nose, saying, "Oh, that was just a smokescreen."
However, seeing Zhang Hong sell the luminous pearl for a high price of three thousand nine hundred taels, Gu Lili still felt a pang of heartache.
I feel like I've lost so much in an instant!
I should have offered Zhang Hong a higher price!
Fortunately, as long as I have money, I can get an inexhaustible supply of luminous pearls.
Thinking this way, Gu Lili felt a little better.
What Gu Lili didn't know was that 2,600 taels was already the amount of silver that the Liu family could afford to pay for antiques.
Fortunately, Gu Lili arrived at the right time and didn't happen when Liu Yuanliang was checking the accounts.
Otherwise, it probably wouldn't have sold for such a good price.
The reason Zhang Hong was in such a hurry to release the luminous pearl was because he wanted to settle the accounts.
“Now that Zou Wenjun’s lover has been found, what we need to do next is to lure Liu Yuanliang here and discover their affair. That way, your mother will have a chance to clear her name,” Gu Lili said to Liu Miaoyin.
Liu Miaoyin nodded in agreement.
"It's not difficult to lure him to the Liu family's antique shop, but it's best to catch them in the act while they're having an affair. Not only should he see it with his own eyes, but more people should also witness it, so that Zou Wenjun will have a hard time recovering!"
The group quickly reached an agreement, discussed what to do, and decided that they would split up and take action the next day.
We must make sure Liu Yuanliang is firmly cuckolded.
The next day, after breakfast, the group split up and set off on their own.
Outside Liu's antique shop, Gu Lili walked in, dressed as she had yesterday.
When Zhou Yang saw that Gu Lili had come again, he immediately beamed with joy.
Because of this little girl, I earned a whole hundred taels of silver yesterday.
In his eyes, Gu Lili is now a god of wealth.
However, this God of Wealth really knows how to time things; he always arrives just when those two are doing good deeds.
Gu Lili came in with a worried look on her face and sighed, "Waiter, the two thousand taels we received yesterday are not enough to cover the losses in my business. Are you still accepting luminous pearls today?"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yang's heart pounded. Was this another hundred taels of silver being sent to him?
What incredible luck!
"Receive, receive, receive!" Zhou Yang nodded hurriedly.
With a heavy heart, Gu Lili took out the luminous pearl from her sleeve. The waiter frowned when he saw it.
Yesterday's luminous pearl was a completely transparent white, but the one Gu Lili brought today is pink.
Zhou Yang was a little confused for a moment. Did the luminous pearl have so many eyes?
Gu Lili noticed Zhou Yang's concerns and sighed, "My family's ancestral luminous pearl is divided into yin and yang. The one we sold to your shop yesterday was yang, and this one is yin. If you don't believe me, you can still take it to a dark place and you'll see for yourself."
Zhou Yang thought about it and decided to see if it would glow first before calling the shopkeeper up.
At the same time, I was also worried for Zhang Hong underground.
If I keep getting disturbed while trying to do good deeds, will I develop any health problems later?
Gu Lili naturally kept an eye on Zhou Yang, so the two of them went under the counter again.
While Zhou Yang was looking at the luminous pearl, Gu Lili secretly hid a mini megaphone in the dark corner of the cabinet.
They even took the opportunity to sprinkle some powder into the gaps.
"It really is true!" Zhou Yang couldn't help but praise.
At the same time, I felt a little regretful. If Gu Lili had brought it out to sell yesterday, the price could have been even higher.
They are also more likely to fetch a good price.
Just as the waiter was about to say something, footsteps came from the doorway.
He quickly looked up, and what he saw almost scared the waiter out of his wits.
Unexpectedly, the person who came to the door was his boss!
The waiter quickly returned the luminous pearl to Gu Lili and stood up to greet her.
"The boss is here. Manager Zhang is out on business. Are you here to check the accounts?" the waiter said with a smile.
However, Liu Yuanliang was not buying it at all and looked at Zhou Yang with a face full of anger.
Zhou Yang felt guilty under their gaze and felt a chill run through his body.
The landlord was so angry; I wonder if he knew about yesterday's events. He had already come by yesterday.
He quickly turned around and winked at Gu Lili, then smiled and said, "Sir, please come back later. My manager is more knowledgeable about the place."
Gu Lili pretended not to understand and raised the luminous pearl in her hand.
"You waiter, you only paid me 2,600 taels for my luminous pearl yesterday, and now you're saying you don't know anything about it! I'm going to another shop!" Gu Lili said angrily.
At this moment, Liu Yuanliang could no longer hold back and slammed his hand on the table.
This is a family secret, and it shouldn't be seen by outsiders.
However, to his surprise, he didn't even need to interrogate the two people before the seller from yesterday revealed the whole thing.
"That couple was right! You actually did such a thing behind my back!"
