Chapter 80 Where did his pearl go?
Mingzhu returned to the room.
The first thing to do is to make a video call to Mr. Ming.
The video was connected quickly.
On the other side of the screen is the president's office of Ming Group.
Mr. Ming sat behind his desk.
Behind it is a floor-to-ceiling window that overlooks the bustling city.
Uncle Zhou stood aside as usual, his eyes fixed gently on the screen.
Mingzhu's face still had a blush from having just returned from outside.
She smiled at the camera with her eyes curved.
"Grandpa! We found the pocket watch! We can go back home tomorrow!"
Mr. Ming smiled and said repeatedly, "Great, I'm glad you found it!"
Uncle Zhou also smiled and nodded.
Wait until I finish telling the whole story of how I found the pocket watch.
Mingzhu paused, lowered her voice slightly, and told Grandpa Ming directly: "Grandpa, Jiang Zhi and I are together."
After saying that, she turned the camera slightly to the side, revealing Jiang Zhi's figure.
Jiang Zhi's face was not nervous at all. He met Mr. Ming's gaze, nodded calmly and politely, and called out, "Old Man."
On the screen, Mr. Ming paused as he picked up the teacup.
Then he put it to his lips and took a sip as if nothing had happened.
He had actually already figured out most of the situation from Ah Xin's report.
Mr. Ming showed no objection.
He just hummed softly from his nose, and it was impossible to tell whether he was happy or angry.
His gaze lingered on Jiang Zhi for a while.
Then he looked back at Mingzhu, his tone calm as usual: "Yes, Grandpa knows. If there is anything, we can talk when I get back."
Old Master Ming thought that Mingzhu was only eighteen years old this year and had a long way to go in the future.
No matter what, he can still protect her for many years.
This trip abroad is not short, and the pocket watch has been found.
Mingzhu did miss home a little.
Ming Axin is very efficient in his work.
After receiving Mingzhu's instructions, everything was arranged.
Early the next morning.
They boarded a helicopter and headed to the airport.
Before boarding the plane, Mingzhu turned around and looked at Ming Axin who was watching them not far away.
"Uncle Xin, goodbye!" She raised her voice, smiled and waved goodbye.
Ming Axin's serious face softened.
He nodded, his eyes gentle: "Goodbye, miss. Have a safe journey."
Mingzhu withdrew her gaze.
And Ming Axin stood there.
He didn't turn around and leave until the plane completely disappeared from the sky.
On the empty tarmac, his figure seemed somewhat lonely.
The comings and goings between people.
He had long been accustomed to it.
Since he was rescued by Mr. Ming back then, he was given the chance to survive.
Then his life would no longer belong to himself, but would be completely handed over to the Ming family.
He is destined to be alone in his life.
He will continue to stay overseas and shoulder his responsibilities and mission until the last moment.
Private jets flew through the clouds.
Mingzhu suddenly remembered something.
She took out the sandalwood box and picked up the pocket watch.
Gently placed it in Jiang Zhi's palm.
"Touch it and try it," Mingzhu observed his reaction curiously, "Do you feel anything special?"
Jiang Zhi held the pocket watch, and ran his fingertips over the carvings on the cover, feeling it carefully for a moment, then shook his head at her affirmatively: "No."
Mingzhu took back the pocket watch and nodded.
Maybe this pocket watch will really choose its destined person.
When the private plane landed on the tarmac of Mingjia Manor.
It's already late at night.
The hatch opens.
Next to the tarmac, Mr. Ming and Uncle Zhou were still awake, waiting to take her home.
The moment I saw them.
A huge sense of happiness and belonging wrapped Mingzhu tightly.
Mingzhu's heart warmed, and she immediately trotted over and threw herself into Mr. Ming's arms.
"Grandpa! Why are you still coming out to pick me up at this late hour?"
Mr. Ming smiled and patted Mingzhu on the back, his eyes loving: "You're back."
Mingzhu smiled and nodded.
After going through so many things, Mingzhu's mind has never been so clear.
From now on, she never wants to leave home again.
Beijing City.
Sheng's father failed to make a comeback.
Now, neither relatives nor friends are willing to associate with them anymore.
No one is willing to lend a helping hand to them.
So many days.
They asked almost everyone they could for help.
But they couldn't even move out of the tube-shaped building.
There was only one bedroom in the house, with a small bed.
It was barely enough for Sheng's mother and Sheng Yuan to sleep.
And Sheng's father slept on the sofa in the living room.
Late at night, Sheng Yuan, lying on the bed, suddenly opened his eyes, his heart beating violently.
However, what came into view was not the ceiling in his memory.
But it was a strange, dilapidated, and even somewhat mottled and peeling ceiling.
There is also an energy-saving lamp hanging alone.
Sheng Yuan was stunned for several seconds.
For a moment, he didn't understand where he was.
Ever since Sheng Yuan linked Mingzhu's disappearance to the pocket watch.
Unprecedented panic gripped his heart.
This power beyond common sense.
Sheng Yuan felt it clearly.
He may have really lost the pearl.
I can no longer feel her warmth or catch a trace of her breath.
Only at this moment did Sheng Yuan see himself clearly.
He couldn't lose the pearl.
Absolutely not.
No matter what, he must get her back.
This thought grew like a vine that grew wildly.
It tightly bound all his sanity.
He could no longer concentrate on the company's affairs and was restless all day long.
Not staring at the pocket watch for a long time.
It means mobilizing all resources and connections.
In pursuit of those talented people mentioned in the legends.
Within three months, under the pressure of Lin Huaiyan.
The board of directors ultimately makes the decision.
The reason is that Sheng Yuan was seriously derelict in his duty and damaged the interests of the company.
Kick him out completely and deprive him of all his positions and powers in the company.
When the news came out, even Sheng's father and mother couldn't help but scold him, expressing their disapproval of him.
But when everyone saw Sheng Yuan's bloodshot but surprisingly stubborn eyes.
As for the face that was becoming increasingly thinner and almost out of shape, he could only shake his head and sigh.
I think he might really be crazy.
Sheng Yuan wouldn't listen to anyone.
Everything outside.
In the face of his obsession to get the pearl back.
It all becomes blurry and insignificant.
But it doesn't matter even if that's the case.
He thought.
He still has a large enough number in his account.
This money was enough to support him to continue searching.
No matter what the cost.
Sheng Yuan's only thought was to get his pearl back.
He spent a lot of money trying to find someone to crack the secret of the pocket watch.
He placed the pocket watch in front of those so-called masters, psychics, and antique experts again and again.
However, no matter who comes.
No matter how capable you claim to be.
The final results all disappointed him without exception.
The pocket watch is in their hands.
Just a dead object.
There were no signs of anything out of the ordinary.
But Sheng Yuan never believed it.
There must be something wrong with this pocket watch.
There has to be something wrong with it.
Otherwise, where did his pearl go?
