Chapter 429 Standing there in a daze



Before Ji Zhinan could think about it, the maid who had just delivered the clothes came back with a white plush shawl in her hand.

"Young Madam, it's snowing outside. Can I put this shawl on you?"

"Is it snowing?" Ji Zhinan asked.

"Yes, young madam." The maid nodded.

The maid pressed a button, and the curtains slowly moved to both sides. The sunlight outside instantly poured in, illuminating the entire room.

Ji Zhinan turned his head and looked towards the window. It was all white outside and there was steam on the window.

………

After changing clothes, Ji Zhinan went outside holding her skirt.

Maureen chose very classical-style dresses for her, layered one on top of another and covered with shawls, so she wasn't afraid of the cold at all.

When she went out, it was no longer snowing. The outside was covered in white snow, which looked particularly beautiful.

Ji Zhinan walked and walked until he arrived at the Gu family's plum garden.

Because Maureen likes it, plum blossoms are also grown in the Gu family garden. Plum blossoms usually bloom in February and March, and some bloom as early as December.

Just like when I saw them yesterday, they were just buds. Unexpectedly, after just one night, they bloomed alone with the first snow in Country Y.

Among the pile of white, clusters of red plums are particularly beautiful.

Ji Zhinan looked at them and was stunned unconsciously.

"Buzz—"

The phone in her hand was vibrating. Ji Zhinan glanced at the caller, pressed the answer button, and put the phone to her ear.

"Shirakawa?"

"Miss Ji." Bai Chuan's voice came from the other side.

Ji Zhinan placed one hand on the red plum blossom and gently brushed away the floating snow on the pistil with his fingertips.

"What's wrong?" she asked.

"The person has been found." Baichuan said.

"..." Upon hearing this, Ji Zhinan's eyes flashed.

Suddenly, she curled her lips into a smile, her smile was charming and lazy: "Where did you find it?"

"As Miss Ji said, she stole so much jewelry from the Ji family, and the first thing she did was to find a way to sell it for cash. When my people caught her, she was about to sell a jewelry necklace worth one million for a hundred thousand."

Because Baichuan had arranged people long ago, when they saw that Aunt Min was only going to sell the jewelry worth one million yuan for 100,000 yuan, they immediately found something wrong and notified Baichuan's people.

Baichuan's men rushed in and grabbed the man tightly, making it impossible for him to escape.

"Miss Ji, our people have already questioned her, but she seems to be frightened and says she doesn't know no matter what we ask..."

Don't know? Ji Zhinan smiled.

If it were someone else, she might really believe that she knew nothing, but she was Aunt Min, the one who was in cahoots with Madam Ji.

If it was Ji Zhixia who pushed Grandpa down the stairs, Mrs. Ji would definitely know it, and Aunt Min would definitely know it too!

"No need to torture him." Ji Zhinan said calmly, "Lock him in a small dark room without windows. Send him water and food as usual. I'll deal with the rest after I get back."

Miss Ji intends to torture Aunt Min psychologically.

Bai Chuan understood and nodded immediately: "I understand, Miss Ji."

…………

"Master Luo, our wife has been waiting for you in the reception room for a long time."

The maid said respectfully.

Luo Shi nodded slightly, with a hint of tenderness in his eyes.

He was wearing a khaki windbreaker that wrapped around his tall body. His long legs looked particularly slender, and his black pupils were deep and charming.

"Yeah." He responded, his words and actions revealing nobility and elegance.

Following the maid towards the main house of the Gu family, he accidentally glanced at the garden as he passed by, and saw a woman standing in front of the red plum tree.

She was wearing a classical long dress and a white shawl, looking like a woman walking out of a painting.

Seeing her profile, Luo Shi was stunned.

aunt?
