The thief's offer almost exhausted Yoshiko's savings, but Yoshiko agreed without hesitation. If she didn't have the sapphire ring, she would just be an ordinary person. She couldn't accept such a life and would rather go bankrupt to get the sapphire ring back. It was her glory.
The thief soon lurked near the Chu family.
He found that the Chu family had few staff members, but their work attitude was very rigorous.
After Su Nian got into trouble last time, Chu Beichen cleaned up the housekeeping staff at home and hired a few loyal ones.
Nowadays, these people are difficult to bribe. Under their management, the Chu family is as tight as an iron barrel and outsiders cannot enter.
This was no problem for the thief. He quickly targeted several household staff members whose jobs were irreplaceable, one of whom was the gardener.
The vegetation in high-end villas is not something that ordinary people can take care of. The gardener must not only understand the art of pruning, but also know how to take care of plants.
Chu Beichen's gardener has been working at home for more than ten years and can be considered diligent. However, he has already started a family and has to go home to rest for a day and a half every weekend. Before resting, the gardener will take care of all the plants and then leave.
The thief's activities were illegal, so of course he didn't care about human life. He deliberately caused a car accident, and Chu Beichen's gardener died on the spot.
After the Chu family received the news, they immediately expressed their condolences to the gardener's family and sent her a large sum of pension.
Now that the family has no gardener, they must urgently hire one. It is spring now, and all the plants are growing very fast. If there is no gardener to take care of it, it won’t take long for the Chu family’s garden to turn into a prairie.
Soon several people came to apply for the job of gardener. After screening, the housekeeper selected a man in his thirties.
The man claimed that he had been working in a botanical garden and later came to this city because of moving.
The housekeeper had tested his skills and found that he was indeed proficient in gardening. In addition, he was only in his thirties, which meant he was in his prime and had the energy and physical strength to work. He believed that he would be able to do the gardening work for the Chu family.
So after asking Chu Beichen for permission and obtaining it, the gardener named Zhang Qingshan stayed.
Zhang Qingshan is the thief's pseudonym. No one has ever seen his real appearance, so no one knows whether this Zhang Qingshan is his real appearance or he is wearing makeup.
After arriving at the Chu family, Zhang Qingshan worked diligently during the day, acting as if it had nothing to do with him, which made the housekeeper who had been observing him carefully gradually lose his guard.
In fact, Zhang Qingshan had already figured out the Chu family's personnel structure, everyone's entry and exit patterns, and the specific rooms they lived in.
Based on his observations over the past few days, Zhang Qingshan analyzed that the safe where Su Nian and Chu Beichen placed important items should be in the couple's bedroom.
Zhang Qingshan discovered that the couple was very affectionate and would rest together in the bedroom every night, unless one of them was on a business trip, then the other might spend the night in the study or another room.
If he wants to find an opportunity for these two people to go on a business trip, he still needs to wait, but Zhang Qingshan doesn't want to wait any longer.
Then you can only do it during the day.
Zhang Qingshan began to choose different times to work in the back garden. From where he worked, he could just see the back windows of Su Nian and Chu Beichen's bedrooms. At night, he tampered with the back window so that he could see the situation in the bedroom while working during the day.
