Chapter 72 Taking Stock of the Victory (2/2)



That's really not true...until..."

"Until what?" Ye Ran was absolutely curious.

“Until I met you… I realized what I love most…” Lu Yi looked directly into Ye Ran’s eyes, his gaze filled with deep affection…

Ye Ran's heart pounded wildly under his gaze. Lu Yi, how could he be so good with words...?

Ye Ran blushed, "Okay... I understand..."

You...you should pack your things first..."

Lu Yi clicked his tongue in disappointment; he had thought he would receive a touching hug...

The two of them worked quickly and soon finished packing up the large items.

Lu Yi rolled up all the paintings and calligraphy and piled them up, and then sorted out the porcelain items by category.

Ye Ran didn't know much about gold and silver artifacts, so she just randomly divided them into two piles based on their composition: gold and silver.

Then the two of them started tidying up the boxes and other things they had pulled out from the table and the floor.

As the boxes were opened one after another, even Ye Ran remarked with some admiration, "I have to say, Xu Qiang does have a real talent for hiding things..."

Lu Yi casually opened a box, "It's a pity it wasn't put in the right place. If he wanted to hide something, he could have hidden his own things. What kind of logic is it to take someone else's things and hide them in his own home..."

Ye Ran nodded. "That's right! So... he can only watch helplessly as his owner finds what he's kept hidden for so many years..."

Judging from his expression, he was so angry he even vomited blood. Did he really think that hiding these things would make them harmless?

Lu Yi scoffed disdainfully, "How could that be? Even if he hid it... he wouldn't dare to take it out and use it, would he?"

So what's the point? What isn't yours will never truly be yours, so what's the use of forcing it...?

Ye Ran wholeheartedly agreed...

After the two of them opened all the boxes, they looked at their work with satisfaction.

There were eighteen boxes of various sizes, mostly filled with gemstones and jewelry, and one box contained several inkstones and ink sticks...

Ye Ran casually picked up a gold hairpin, admiring the perfect filigree work and the lifelike peony design. She exclaimed in amazement, "The craftsmanship of these pieces is amazing; they must be worth a lot of money..."

Lu Yi smiled. "That's true, but the real valuable items are these inkstones and inksticks. They're probably antiques that have been passed down for many years. The aroma of the ink is so strong..."

After admiring the items for a while, the two turned their attention to the remaining two boxes.

One of the boxes was the one Xu Xiaocao took in her previous life, and it was filled with banknotes of different denominations.

The two of them took out the banknotes and counted them, which took them quite a while. After they finished, they both found it rather amusing...

"He actually has so much money, a full 14,800 yuan! This Xu Qiang really is making a fortune quietly..." Ye Ran clicked her tongue in amazement.

"It must have all been wired to him by that person over the years. It seems that this person is doing quite well!"

"Even a nobody like Xu Qiang can get so much money by taking advantage of this..." Lu Yi said, flicking the money in his hand.

"I just don't know who this person is..." Ye Ran said.

Then, their gazes simultaneously turned to the last box...
