"That's good." An Shuyi said, and a box appeared in her hand. "Second brother, take a look and see if this is the diamond you wanted."
"Where did you get this? You're not trying to fool me with a fake, are you? I've seen that diamond before. You think you can fool me? No way."
"I don't know if this is the one you want. Take a look. If it's not, then give it back to me."
She and Huahua took this from the bank, along with the US dollars. They took it because they thought it looked nice, and never used it; they just kept it in their secret hideout.
They came to the United States this time and because they had a warehouse, they put the jewelry together with it. If her second brother hadn't mentioned it, she wouldn't have remembered it.
An Shucheng opened the box and almost dropped it when he saw what was inside, but he managed to steady himself. "Where did you get this diamond?"
"Before Huahua and I wore this, we came to the United States once. We planned to withdraw some US dollars from the bank, and this diamond was with us. The color is very beautiful, so we brought it with us. After that, we just left it and never wore it. Is this the diamond you want?"
"Yes, it's a good thing you haven't worn them, otherwise you two would have been dead long ago. Many people are looking for this diamond. Someone is willing to pay hundreds of millions to buy it, but no one has been able to find it yet."
"Perhaps no one else expected that the diamonds would be kept in the bank, Second Brother. Remember to keep your promise."
"No problem. I'll give you the cruise ship when we get back, and I'll also prepare the other driving documents for you."
"Thank you, Second Brother." That's great, it saves me some money.
"You're welcome!" An Shucheng closed the box and handed it to her. "An Shushu, keep the box with you and give it to me when you return to China."
It's not safe for him to carry it himself, as he'll have to go through security at the airport. It's better to leave it with the books.
“No problem.” An Shuyi took it and put it in the warehouse.
"Second Brother, which hotel are you staying at? Have you booked your plane tickets?"
"It's booked. It's the same hotel you stayed at before."
Looking at the man leaning lazily in the chair, she took out a medicine bottle from the storeroom. "Second brother, here's some medicine for you. It's for treating your injuries. After you take it, the pain won't be as bad tomorrow, and it will be healed the day after. The marks will also fade away."
"There are many medicinal herbs in here, such as ginseng, lingzhi, and sanqi, all of which are hundreds of years old. Take one a day until you finish it. It will take a maximum of four days to recover, but it can help regulate your body."
He's my second brother, after all, and it was because of her that he was kicked and injured by Hua Hua. It wouldn't be right to just leave him injured like this.
"Hundred-year-old ginseng and lingzhi? You're kidding me. Making medicine out of it? It's probably fake." Despite saying that, she still took the medicine.
"Second brother, don't be ungrateful. I don't usually give this medicine to just anyone. I'm not lying to you, it's really hundreds of years old. Look, I even have ginseng here."
He took out a prepared ginseng from the warehouse. "This was prepared by a doctor; it's hundreds of years old." He ignored the outstretched hand and put the box back.
"Why did you put it back? I haven't seen it clearly yet. Take it out again so I can take a look."
An Shuyi shook her head, "No, we have to keep these. When Yu Bai and Yu Mo come over, we can let them take them. It'll make them look good."
"Let them take some other things. Give this ginseng to Second Brother. Second Brother will give it to you and Huahua, one building each."
"No, it's just two buildings, we can afford them. But ginseng is different. It would make them look good if they took it."
"Fine, don't give it to them then. I'll take it from my parents after they take it back." He opened the medicine bottle and poured out a pill, a brown pill slightly larger than a peanut.
"If you can get it, then just swallow it."
"I know." He swallowed the medicine, took a sip, and after a while, he felt a warm sensation in his chest, which was still aching, and the pain wasn't as bad.
It seems this medicine is really effective; this girl wasn't lying. "An Shushu, do you have a lot of this medicine? Give me a few bottles."
"That's all. These aren't candies, and they're not wholesale. They're very precious, okay? Those medicinal herbs were found by me and Huahua in the forest. We couldn't find a single one in a whole day."
"How stingy! You must still have some. If you don't want it, fine, let's eat."
After finishing their meal, the group took a car back to the hotel. Once inside, An Shucheng opened three new rooms in the lobby and returned them with the room keys.
“You two will be sleeping in the same room tonight. You’re living together before you’re even married. If your parents find out, they’ll beat you both to death.”
"And you two, don't think you're so great just because you can scale walls. If I find out you dare to go looking for them, you're finished. You won't even be allowed to date, let alone get married."
Xiao Yubai and Cheng Yumo nodded, "We understand, Second Brother."
"Good to know."
Once they reached the floor, after Shushu and Huahua entered their room, Shushu said to them, "Your rooms are the two over there. Shushu has already booked the plane tickets, so you don't need to book any more. Go back to your rooms and meet here at eight o'clock tomorrow morning."
"Okay, Second Brother." The two nodded in unison.
After watching them go inside, An Shucheng returned to his room, but he kept listening to the sounds outside.
An Shuyi and her companion went into the room, took the things off the bed, changed the quilt and sheets, and then took a shower.
After washing their hair, they could only use a hairdryer because there was no hand dryer available. After tidying up, the two of them went to bed.
In the two rooms next door, Xiao Yubai and Cheng Yumo did not sleep. Instead, after washing up, they took out their phones to look at books and videos until very late.
An Shuyi and Xia Hua got up early, and after washing up and changing their clothes, they sent a message to Xiao Yubai and Cheng Yumo, asking them to come and pick up their clothes.
My second brother was watching me last night and didn't give them any clothes or toiletries. Luckily, the hotel had toiletries.
The two stood at the door, waiting for them to arrive. They handed over the bag, which had just been packed. Seeing the door across the hall open, An Shuyi said, "Second Brother, do you really have to do this?"
“They have no luggage, we’ll give them some, and you just keep an eye on them.”
An Shucheng glared at her. "I wasn't watching you. We're all packed and ready to go. You two should go change your clothes now, or you can take a taxi to the airport."
He couldn't say he was watching them, of course he couldn't. Otherwise, that little rascal An Shushu would have a hard time explaining herself.
Xiao Yubai and Xiao Yubai picked up their bags and went to change their clothes. They had already washed up, but their clothes were still from yesterday. They quickly changed and came back.
An Shuheng opened the door, picked up his luggage, and walked ahead. He went to the hotel restaurant for breakfast before going downstairs to set off, while his bodyguard was already waiting in his car.
“You two sit in that car, and you two sit with me.” He would never give them a single chance to be alone together.
"I know." An Shuyi looked at her second brother speechlessly. He was watching her so closely. It was just a car ride, and he even made them separate. It was really too much, but she couldn't say anything.
