Chapter 10 Seven Hundred Thousand
Xu Zhenqu glared at Ji Jinhe in a rare moment of loss of composure, and sat down facing Su Chi.
Ying Wanshu personally poured tea and brought it to Su Chi. Butler Su was a person with some influence in the Su family. If he could help to say a few good words in front of President Su, it would also make the Su family have a better impression of the Xu family.
"Butler Su." Gu Xuanzhou nodded to Butler Su as a greeting.
Gu Xuanzhou did not go with them to greet Steward Su, but he also stood up to show respect.
The Gu family has a certain status in the capital, so Gu Xuanzhou doesn't have to please a steward of the Su family, but he can't ignore him either.
Xu Jinyi saw Ji Jinhe sitting in the main seat and thought she was bold but ignorant. He just watched the show secretly, hoping that his father would scold Ji Jinhe after Su Chi left.
Ji Jinhe didn't know what Xu Jinyi was thinking at this moment. She just looked at Su Chi curiously, wondering what Madam Su would give Xu Jinxi.
Su You made things difficult for Xu Jinxi because of her, and Madam Su had to deal with the mess for both of them.
If it was a very valuable gift, she would definitely snatch it back and return it to Madam Su. Xu Jinxi was not worth it.
Su Chi watched everyone's reactions calmly. Without saying anything more, he reached into his pocket, took out a card and placed it on the table.
"Butler Su, what's this?" Xu Zhenqu asked doubtfully, obviously not understanding what Su Chi meant.
"Mr. Xu, this is Mrs. Su's apology gift to Miss Xu." Su Chi maintained a standard smile.
Ji Jinhe seemed to understand something, and a light flashed in his eyes.
"Is this... a card?" Even Gu Xuanzhou found it unbelievable.
"Yes." Su Chi paused and explained in detail to everyone: "Ms. Xu's dress is worth 500,000 yuan. Considering that Miss Xu was frightened, an additional 200,000 yuan will be added for mental damages, a total of 700,000 yuan."
After Su Chi finished speaking, he tapped the card with his fingers, indicating that the money was all in the card.
Ji Jinhe burst out laughing after hearing this. Madam Su's gift really touched her heart.
The faces of everyone in the Xu family suddenly changed into a mixture of confusion and astonishment. They obviously didn't expect Madam Su's apology to be so... straightforward.
Like the medical expenses paid after your child gets into a fight with someone else.
Su Chi felt that his mission for today was accomplished. He didn't know what the Xu family thought, but Miss Ji looked very happy.
Su Chi picked up the teacup, blew on it and took a sip.
He thought to himself that after returning home he would talk to his wife in detail about the Xu family's attitude towards Miss Ji.
After a moment, Xu Zhenqu finally seemed to have recovered and forced a rather unpleasant smile: "Madam Su, you are too polite. It's just a small matter. Thank you for bothering Madam Su."
It was as if he hadn't gone to the company today and it wasn't him who was waiting for her at home.
"I'm really embarrassed to accept the apology. It was Jin Yi who was a little impulsive and disturbed the Su family's banquet. I will bring my children to apologize in person another day." Xu Zhenqu pushed the card in the direction of Su Chi and became humble and gentle again.
"Mrs. Su always keeps her word." Su Chi calmly rejected Xu Zhenqu.
Seeing Su Chi's firm attitude, Xu Zhenqu had no choice but to order Xu Jinxi to accept the card and thank him repeatedly.
Seven hundred thousand is nothing to the Xu family, but it is Xu Jinxi's pocket money for several months, and the important thing is that it is given by the Su family.
Although giving money directly was somewhat disrespectful, the Su family was not someone the Xu family could afford to offend, so even if the other party's attitude was contemptuous, it was understandable.
The Su family is one of the few century-old families in the capital. There is a reason why it has been able to stand firm in this treacherous city.
When Xu Zhenqu sent Su Chi out, Su Chi turned around and said to Ji Jinhe, "Goodbye, Miss Ji."
Ji Jinhe smiled and nodded, then went upstairs.
Xu Zhenqu had just sent Su Chi away and turned around to talk to Ji Jinhe about Su Chi, but he saw that Ji Jinhe was no longer in the living room.
…
Ji Jinhe plans to stay at the Xu family recently. She plans to sneak into the study behind Xu Zhenqu's villa, which is the key evidence to determine whether the Xu family can be brought down.
Half a year ago, she had been back to Xu's house for a long time, but she had a car accident on the way back.
If the bodyguard who was secretly protecting her had not driven the car in front of her, Ji Jinhe would probably have been killed.
After investigation, it was discovered that Xu Jinxi's admirer was dissatisfied with her return and took away the identity of the eldest daughter of the Xu family, and planned the car accident for this reason.
Ji Jinhe also investigated the Xu family's shady underground industry, which involved many people. The person who planned the car accident was an employee of Xu Zhenqu.
I don’t know how Xu Zhenqu felt when he knew that the power he cultivated almost killed his own daughter, but Ji Jinhe has never been a person who sits and waits for death.
Originally, Ji Jinhe planned to go back to the Xu family that day and break off all ties with the Xu family. Although the Xu family valued Xu Jinxi more, the Xu family still had a debt of gratitude towards Ji Jinhe.
Ji Jinhe prepared many benefits. As long as the Xu family agreed to sign the marriage agreement, then because of this grace, the Xu family's future in the capital would be much easier than it is now.
She hadn't been the second young lady of the Qi family for so many years in vain. Although the Qi couple doted on her very much, they didn't spoil her.
She received the same education as Qi Xiuxu. The Qi couple were both very kind people. She followed them and was influenced by them, so she looked down upon what Xu Zhenqu did.
Even if that was her biological father.
Since the car accident, Ji Jinhe has been secretly collecting evidence to prove that Xu Zhenqu committed a crime. As for the other people in the Xu family, as long as they did not participate in this matter, it has nothing to do with them.
A lot of information has been collected so far. Two days ago, one of his subordinates sent a message to Ji Jinhe saying that Xu Zhenqu had a detailed list of participants and recordings with his accomplices in his computer.
If Ji Jinhe was right, the information should be in the backyard. Ji Jinhe had never been to that backyard, and Xu Zhenqu never let anyone get close to it.
Once before, Ji Jinhe accidentally approached that place, and that night Xu Zhenqu called her over to test it out.
Thinking of this, Ji Jinhe's face darkened, and Xu Zhenqu was very cautious.
Time passed by unknowingly, and Ji Jinhe stayed in the room the whole time, only coming out when the servant called her downstairs for dinner.
She didn't want to have too much contact with the Xu family, so Ying Wanshu felt that her daughter didn't love her.
In the evening, Ji Jinhe had just taken on a variety show for Chu Jin, and she stood on the balcony and stretched.
My sight inadvertently slid across the road not far away, where there seemed to be a car parked.
The car was parked discreetly by the roadside, with the surrounding trees blocking most of its view. It was hidden in the darkness like a lurking wolf.
Ji Jinhe was afraid that it was related to Xu Zhenqu, so she squinted her eyes and looked at him carefully.
But the more he looked at it, the more familiar it looked. Ji Jinhe rubbed his eyes in disbelief. Isn't that Qi Xiuxu's car?
