A shocking case broke out in H City. Several national treasures from the H City Museum disappeared. This was simply horrifying. For a time, people on the streets were talking about it.
Qu's father warned Qu Xin: "Keep quiet for now and don't cause any trouble. This is a critical moment over there and we absolutely cannot make any more mistakes at this time."
"What happened last time wasn't my fault at all. My bodyguard saw the man surnamed Shen get on the train. Who knew he would end up with Yuan Tingchuan?"
"Idiot, do you even need to ask? We've definitely been targeted by Yuan Tingchuan, and he's just waiting for you to fall into his trap."
"They got a bargain this time, wait for the next time..."
"Don't wait for next time. Just stay here quietly and do me a favor. If you act up again, go back to Hong Kong City and let your brother come over instead."
Qu Xin lowered her head and said nothing. She didn't want to go back yet.
Qu's father was just saying that. His son stayed in Hong Kong and could not be easily removed. If this idiot were to go back, he would definitely mess up the company.
Han Ming asked worriedly, "Is everything okay over there? If things don't work, talk to that person?"
"Don't talk nonsense! This person and that person are all nonsense."
There was sternness in Qu's father's voice as he glanced at Han Ming with a warning.
"Who are you talking about?" Qu Xin asked suspiciously.
"Don't you know? Don't ask any more questions."
Father Qu pondered for a moment and said to Han Ming, "You have to go to that village yourself. The situation is tense right now. Don't let those peasants cause any trouble. You just keep an eye on it and come back after the situation has passed."
He turned around and glanced at Qu Xin: "You can go with me."
"I'm not going there. It's a remote place with nothing to offer, not to mention the bumpy dirt road. It's so bumpy every time I walk on it. We don't need that much money, so why not build a road for them? It would be convenient for us to go back and forth."
Qu's father didn't know what to say. His daughter was so stupid that he was unbearable to look at. Sometimes he even doubted whether this child was his.
Is it convenient for you to get in and out? Isn't it more convenient for others? So what's the point of it being a secret? Why not just announce it to the world? How stupid can one be to even talk about building a road?
Qu's father waved his hand feebly and made the final decision: "You go with me. Han Ming will keep an eye on her. Come back when I tell you."
Because this incident had such a huge impact, the higher-ups attached great importance to it and quickly sent an expert investigation team to not only investigate the case, but also conduct further identification of the museum's cultural relics.
The result made everyone feel relieved. Everything was still there, and finally no unacceptable results occurred.
The investigation team quickly launched an investigation and gave the results within just five working days.
Shi Lin, a staff member of the museum, took advantage of his position to steal national cultural relics and resold them to foreigners. This had a very bad impact. He has been taken away by the public security organs and will be dealt with seriously.
Du Ruo held the teacup in her hand, lowered her eyes and said nothing.
Yuan Tingchuan sat on the sofa with his legs crossed, tapping his knees lightly with his slender fingers, humming a line from a Peking Opera: "I am originally from Wolonggang..."
Yuan Wu hurried in: "Shi Lin's verdict has been issued."
Fast enough? Yuan Tingchuan waved his hand, indicating that he understood, and Yuan Wu retreated.
Du Ruo was silent for a while and then said, "I want to go find Ling Yun recently. After making sure he's alright, I'll go back to Linshan. There are still a lot of things waiting for me in the company."
Yuan Tingchuan said disapprovingly, "If you don't make a decision when you should, you will suffer the consequences. We must kill them in one fell swoop while they are still breathing heavily. By the time they have recovered, it will be your turn to die."
He waved his hand: "If you want to go back, go ahead. It's okay to leave here. Leave this to me."
Du Ruo fell silent. Since An Ze was involved in this matter, she did want to back out. She was just an ordinary citizen and really didn't want to get involved so deeply.
She also didn't know whether the car accident in her previous life was related to these people, but now that she was with her son, she was really hesitant.
But if Yuan Tingchuan stayed here, she really couldn't just get up and leave.
In two days it will be Mr. Li’s 70th birthday. Both Mr. Li and An Ze called her and invited her to come over.
Yuan Tingchuan also officially received the invitation and also planned to go and show his support.
Du Ruo bought a birthday gift from the auction house. It was neither too heavy nor too light, just average.
Although the gift Yuan Tingchuan gave was not outstanding, it was in line with his status and had great collection value.
On the day, the two of them took a car to Li's house. There were many cars parked in front of the door, and the line stretched all the way to the entrance of the alley.
There were a few people there maintaining order. When they saw Du Ruo and Yuan Tingchuan getting off the car together, a young man ran over, greeted them with a smile, and led the two people into the door.
Du Ruo had lived here for a while, and the young man knew her: "Boss Du, Brother An Ze was talking about this yesterday. He wanted you to come early, but you didn't agree. It would be great if you could come early so we can have some fun together."
"It takes a hundred days to heal a broken bone. Don't think I'm walking well now. My ankle hurts after walking a little more. I'm causing trouble for you guys."
"That's not the case. We're just friends."
He led Du Ruo and Yuan Tingchuan to the second gate and hurried out to do something else.
The two walked along the garden path and passed by the waterside pavilion where the Li family entertained guests. They saw a man in a Zhongshan suit in the pavilion. He was dignified, wearing a pair of glasses, and had the air of a superior.
Yuan Tingchuan and Du Ruo looked at each other and silently mouthed "Li Anrui" to her.
Du Ruo nodded slightly. In fact, she didn't need Yuan Tingchuan to introduce her. She knew Li Anrui. The two of them had met once in their previous life, and it was An Ze who deliberately introduced them to each other.
The scene was not pleasant and everyone said goodbye in a hurry.
Du Ruo didn't think he had any connection with such a big shot, and never took this matter to heart.
Li Anrui is now much younger than when she met him in her previous life, and he is also less gloomy than he was then.
He looked up and saw Yuan Tingchuan and Du Ruo coming over. He stood up immediately and said, "Mr. Yuan, it is a great honor for me to have you visit my humble home. We had a quick farewell in Hong Kong last time. How is Mr. Yuan doing?"
"Thank you for your concern. Grandpa has always been in good health. It is a blessing for us as his children and grandchildren."
"It's true that having an old person in the family is like having a treasure. It's a blessing for us."
Du Ruo watched the two of them exchange greetings coldly, stood aside, smiled and said nothing.
Yuan Tingchuan put his arm around Du Ruo's waist and introduced them to each other: "This is my friend, Mr. Du from Shengshi in W Province."
