Zhou Zhou stroked the priceless crown, her eyes slightly red. They were just friends, and this was too precious.
She tilted her head and looked at the gorgeously embroidered phoenix coronet and bridal robe beside her.
"Will this set take more than a month to complete?"
This material is obviously worth a lot of money.
Laura walked over and stroked the embroidery pattern on the shawl and said, “This set is Yunjin. The lady bought it ready-made. It didn’t take much time.”
It’s only been about two years, and it was cut by a lady herself.
The phoenix-patterned shawl pendant was carved from mutton-fat jade, and the auspicious clouds and colorful phoenixes on the shawl were embroidered by a famous Chinese Suzhou embroidery master.
The phoenix crown is made of peacock feathers in imitation of kingfisher feather technique. Every pearl on it is a sea pearl. There are hundreds of natural rare gems. Its value cannot be measured by money. It is a treasure that can be passed down from generation to generation.
"Ms. Zhou Zhou, after the wedding, you can put these in the bank safe. It might not be safe to keep them at home."
This sentence was not said by the lady, but was suggested by Laura herself. She was afraid that Miss Zhou Zhou would not take it seriously and someone would steal it if she left it at home.
This is enough for an ordinary person to spend several lifetimes.
"Okay, I understand. I will cherish it."
After seeing Laura off, Zhou Zhou returned to the cloakroom, found the key, and locked the door.
I took out my phone and sent a WeChat message to Tang Xili, [Wow…Ali, thank you, you are so kind to me.]
After a few seconds, the chat box shows that the other party is typing.
[What did I tell you this morning? Have you forgotten it now?]
Zhou Zhou looked around the bedroom. No one was there. [There's no one around me.]
[That won’t work either. Stop contacting me.]
Zhou Zhou chose a cute emoji and tried to act cute, but as soon as he sent it, a red exclamation point appeared, along with the message: Tang Xili has enabled friend verification, and you're not his (her) friend yet...
Zhou Zhou: “…”
Okay, she raised her hand and deleted Tang Xili’s WeChat.
Tang Xili's words echoed in her ears. "The An family is at the end of their rope and may attack those who are close to me. For your personal safety, from today on, all our chat history must be cleared and we must not contact each other again. I will not attend your wedding either. Remember, we are not familiar with each other."
This is what Tang Xili said when she called Song Ci into the car when she was taking her to the hospital.
In fact, when Tang Xili asked her to get out at the An family's gate that morning, Zhou Zhou realized something was wrong, so she went along with the performance.
At that time, she did not drive away immediately, but called Amy and waited at the end of the street.
She would not feel at ease until she saw Tang Xili come out with her own eyes.
After waiting for about half an hour, Zhou Zhou saw that Amy had been waiting at the door for a while, but Tang Xili had not come out yet, so he decisively called the police.
Unexpectedly, just as she dialed 110, she saw Tang Xili coming out of An's house. She quickly hung up the phone before the call was connected and followed their car to the hospital.
They met in the hospital parking lot. Tang Xili was not injured, but her clothes were covered in blood, so she did not get out of the car.
Those words, said at that time, in Tang Xili's Rolls-Royce, were like a game of Infernal Affairs.
Just as Tang Xili wished, both of them cleared the chat history of each account they added to each other.
Zhou Zhou was so moved after receiving the wedding dress and suit that he forgot about it.
Unexpectedly, this cruel woman actually blocked her.
Zhou Zhou felt aggrieved and only felt better after talking on the phone with his brother Chuan for a while.

On the other side, in the hospital's VIP suite, Mr. An, who had recovered well, wanted to be discharged from the hospital in the afternoon.
An Zhixue and An Minghui, who came to serve him, quickly advised him, "Stay for two more days, it's better to get some stability."
The bodies of the thugs at home have not been dealt with yet, and the whole first floor is filled with the smell of blood. When the old man is discharged from the hospital, he will definitely find out that they have been secretly dealing with Tang Xili again. Who knows how angry he will be.
Maybe they had lost too much, and now that they had only lost Gu Yuqing's legs, they didn't think it was a big deal.
It’s a good thing that Tang Xili didn’t take her life.
Mr. An has been staying in the hospital for half a month. He has had enough and insists on being discharged.
An Zhixue and An Minghui tried to persuade him again, but the old man discovered something.
"No, you are hiding something from me. Are you...are you provoking Tang Xili again?"
"How is that possible? What are you thinking, Dad?" An Zhixue's eyes were evasive.
But the old man is 70 years old, how can we hide it from him?
"Bang!" He threw the porcelain bowl to the ground, trembling and roaring, "Speak!"
An Zhixue was so frightened that she trembled and lost her composure, telling everything about her twin sisters and the thugs she hired to surround and kill Tang Xili.
The room was horribly silent. Old Master An's face was cold and gloomy, his eyes filled with dark clouds. He threw off the covers and got out of bed, slapping An Minghui in the face. "I told you not to act on your own again. Do you think I'm dead?"
An Minghui covered his face, enduring his anger, "I'm sorry, Dad. I will never act on my own again."
An Zhixue also promised, "Dad, we won't dare to do that anymore."
She was scared, she was really scared. Tang Xili was a devil. Without absolute certainty, they would never act rashly again.
Seeing that his son and daughter had already grown white hair in just a few days, the anger in Mr. An's heart was suddenly dissipated by extreme grief.
The most painful thing in this world is to see a loved one die.
Tang Xili didn't kill the old ones, but attacked the young ones, just to make them live a life worse than death.
She had killed people and destroyed their hearts. Now they were in agony.
"Hahaha..." The old man suddenly laughed sadly, his cloudy old eyes full of dejection and regret.
"I never thought that after a lifetime of dominating the business world, I, An Baoshan, would be defeated by a greenhorn girl. Hahahaha... Ridiculous, extremely ridiculous!"
An Zhixue and An Minghui were frightened by their father's crazy appearance, "Dad, please don't scare us."
The old man stopped laughing, his eyes turned vicious and cruel, "Since we can't deal with her, let's drag someone in and kill her with a borrowed knife!"
An Minghui's mind moved, "Dad, who should we invite in?"
"Everyone who dislikes her, she has fought for so many years, it is impossible for her not to have enemies and mortal enemies. These people are our knives!"
Thinking about the last time he went to see Mr. Yong, but it didn't work at all, Mr. An was very unwilling to give up. "Minghui, arrange for discharge immediately, and then... accompany me to visit Mr. Yong..."
——
Near dusk, in the ward on the 10th floor of the same hospital, Gu Yuqing woke up from a coma.
The brilliant glow of the sunset dazzled her eyes. She squinted them, then slowly opened them after adjusting.
Above my head is a snow-white ceiling and hanging liquid.
Her eyes suddenly became clear. Hospital?
