Chapter 220 Giving money is more practical than an apology
Gu Jinrong was obviously startled when he heard Jiang Xuxu's words, but he still looked at her with suspicion.
"How can you prove it?"
Gu Jinrong said in a deep voice,
"Xinran has been wearing this amulet since I took it back. If she hadn't suddenly gotten into trouble last night, I would not have discovered that there was something wrong with the amulet."
"Why should I prove to you something I didn't do?"
Jiang Xuxu looked at him coldly, his face not showing any panic or guilt because of his aggressiveness.
"You only have two choices now. First, find someone else to save your daughter, and then find evidence to prove that I used evil magic to harm your daughter and then arrested me.
Second, shut up and take me to see your daughter now."
Jiang Xuxu's attitude could be described as cold and hard. Gu Jinrong stared at him for a while. He thought he had a way of judging people, and Jiang Xuxu in front of him didn't look like he was lying.
If she wasn't so good at disguising herself at such a young age, it only meant that she really had nothing to do with this incident.
Then the person who could have tampered with Xinran's amulet could only be someone in the family.
Thinking of this possibility, Gu Jinrong's impulsive mind finally began to calm down, and finally eased the emotions on his face. He immediately made a choice about what Jiang Xuxu had just said,
"Please come home with me to see Xinran. If you can really make Xinran better, I am willing to apologize to you for my impulsiveness just now."
As the eldest son of the family, although he always boasted of his noble status, he also understood the principle of being able to bend and stretch.
Now nothing is more important than Xinran's safety.
Jiang Su on the side snorted coldly when he heard this,
"You just came up and made accusations against my sister without asking any questions, and now you have the nerve to ask my sister to continue helping you? How can you be so shameless? Do
you really think that you can order the daughter of our Jiang family around?!"
Gu Jinrong, as a father, was repeatedly treated so rudely by a boy like Jiang Su. The anger on his face was almost unbearable, but thinking of his own daughter, he held back his temper and said in a deep voice,
"I said, I'm willing to apologize."
Jiang Su sneered immediately, "Who needs your apology..."
Jiang Su's voice had just fallen, and Jiang Xuxu on the side finally spoke, "Indeed, I don't need your apology."
Jiang Su turned his head when he heard this, his eyes full of disapproval.
Although he said he didn't want it, it didn't mean he didn't need it!
Can't you tell that he was deliberately venting his anger on her?
How come this sister doesn't have any tacit understanding?
Then, Jiang Xuxu continued in a calm voice,
"I will solve your daughter's problem for you, and you give me eight million, and we owe each other nothing."
It is more practical to give money directly than a light apology.
Jiang Su originally intended to persuade her, but he swallowed it back in an instant after hearing the eight million. He raised his hand and touched the jade pendant of two hundred thousand on his neck.
Suddenly he felt that his sister was quite good to him.
Look at this charging standard, his two hundred thousand is definitely a price for family ties.
Gu Jinrong frowned slightly when he heard that Jiang Xuxu directly asked for a reward of eight million. Compared with her standard of asking for two thousand for a peace amulet, the eight million seemed to be a deliberate price increase.
But compared to Xinran's safety, eight million is really nothing.
Gu Jinrong accepted it without hesitation.
Jiang Xuxu immediately called out in the direction of the stairs, and soon, he saw Xiao Piaoliang running down with a familiar small backpack.
After taking the small backpack, Jiang Xuxu casually stroked Xiao Piaoliang's head, and told Uncle Ming beside him to give it some snacks as a reward, and then he was going out with Gu Jinrong.
Seeing this, Jiang Su immediately said that he wanted to go with them.
No one was at home today, and the only second aunt at home was too unreliable. Jiang Su thought about it and decided to go by himself.
He couldn't let his sister be bullied by the Gu family.
After getting along for this period of time, Jiang Su realized that his sister really couldn't stand quarreling.
With him following, if that side dared to talk nonsense again, he would be his sister's strongest substitute!
...
The two followed Gu Jinrong and quickly returned to the Gu family's villa.
As soon as they got off the car, they could clearly feel the unusual resentment emanating from a certain direction of the villa.
What is certain is that these resentments are definitely not from cat spirits.
I thought someone had soaked her talisman in pig blood, which affected the effectiveness of the amulet, but I didn't expect that the Gu family had another resentment hidden.
If I guessed correctly, Gu Xinran's sudden madness should be related to this resentment.
Going further in, Jiang Xuxu frowned slightly.
Because the closer she got, the more she felt that this resentment was inexplicably familiar.
After carefully feeling it, she was slightly startled, and subconsciously looked at Jiang Su who was following her side, her almond eyes slightly deep.
Jiang Su:? ? ?
It's over, my sister seems to be giving me some hints.
What should I do if I don’t get it? !
Fortunately, Jiang Xuxu didn’t make things difficult for him for too long, and they soon came to Gu Xinran’s room.
As the only little princess in the family, Gu Xinran’s room was decorated like an alternative doll castle.
However, the room was a bit messy at the moment, with all kinds of dolls scattered all over the floor, and the original bed curtains on the beautiful princess bed were torn and a bit tattered, just hanging there casually.
In addition to Gu Xinran, there were two other people in the room. One of them was a beautiful young woman with a pretty face and gentle temperament, who was obviously Gu Xinran’s mother.
The one next to her looked haggard, with obvious scratches on her face and body, who was responsible for taking care of Gu Xinran.
Jiang Xuxu’s eyes swept over the nanny lightly, and then looked at the center of the bed.
On the bed, the little girl with a peaceful face was sleeping peacefully, not at all like the crazy look Gu Jinrong described.
"She made such a fuss last night that there was nothing we could do. The family used a sedative, and she finally calmed down until dawn."
Gu Jinrong explained, and walked forward to gently touch the child's forehead, with a bit of heartache in his eyes.
When facing the child, he really looked like a father.
Jiang Xuxu only looked at Gu Xinran lying on the bed, and then took out the amulet that had turned dark red.
The moment she saw the amulet, Mrs. Gu's face showed obvious disgust, and she subconsciously raised her hands to protect her daughter.
The nanny next to her also looked at her nervously, as if she was also afraid that she would use evil magic to harm people.
Jiang Xuxu ignored the two's alertness and just explained,
"On the way here, I have confirmed that this amulet was soaked in pig blood, which made it ineffective. But pig blood is just ordinary pig blood and does not have the effect of driving people crazy.
The other party probably just doesn't want my amulet to continue to be used on the child. Maybe he doesn't want to hurt the child, or maybe he doesn't understand the details of the mysterious art."
Gu Jinrong frowned when he heard this, and retorted in a deep voice,
"That person made Xinran become what she is now, and it is obvious that he came to harm my child!"
Jiang Xuxu looked at Gu Jinrong and repeated,
"I told you, the amulet soaked in pig blood won't make people crazy. The person who did it just wanted to cause trouble. Maybe she didn't expect something like what happened last night."
She paused deliberately as she spoke, her eyes suddenly falling on the nanny next to her, her almond-shaped eyes cold,
"Auntie, am I right?"
