Chapter 194 Song Chi: Uncle, you're not allowed to lie to me!
"Uncle, what is he doing...?"
Outside the door, Song Chi saw Mu Yin say something to the shop assistant, and then the shop assistant took out the pair of diamond rings they had just seen.
Why is the uncle looking at those rings again?
For some reason, Song Chi's heart was pounding wildly, and her right eyelid was twitching incessantly.
Inside the store, the shop assistant was talking to Mu Yin, but Song Chi couldn't hear clearly because of the distance.
Mu Yin had his back to her, so she couldn't see his expression.
However, she clearly saw the shop assistant's surprised expression. She didn't know what he said, but then a man in a sharp suit walked towards Mu Yin and bowed respectfully.
Song Chi: "..."
Her pupils widened, her eyes filled with shock.
Then, the man in the suit took Mu Yin to another place.
Song Chi's heart tightened.
She pressed the automatic button on her wheelchair and chased after him in the direction he had gone.
She had a subconscious feeling that the older man seemed to have some secret she didn't know!
She hurriedly caught up with him, wanting to get to the bottom of things.
However, just as Mu Yin was being led around a corner by the man and heading towards the office, she almost caught up with him, but then the shop assistant from before walked towards her.
"Miss, you're back again?"
"Well……"
Song Chi froze in his tracks.
"Miss, I was just about to ask you to come after me. You left your bag here. Quickly check it to see if any valuables are missing!"
Song Chi took the bag from the shop assistant without checking it; she trusted the trust between people.
"Thank you, I don't have any valuables in my bag."
"That's good, I'll go get back to work now."
The shop assistant was speaking when he turned to leave.
Song Chi called out, "Wait, I want to ask, I just saw my husband come in again, is he going to buy those diamond rings?"
Upon hearing this, the shop assistant stammered and couldn't utter a complete sentence.
Song Chi asked anxiously, "Why aren't you saying anything?"
The shop assistant panicked: "Miss...I...I..."
Mu Yin had specifically instructed them not to make a fuss, and especially not to tell her.
That's why the shop assistant hesitated and didn't dare to tell the truth.
That's right, Mu Yin came back to buy those diamond rings, wanting to surprise her.
Unbeknownst to him, Song Chi saw him enter the store again.
What he didn't know was that what he considered a surprise was a shock to Song Chi.
What he had no idea was that his disguise was about to be exposed.
Seeing that the shop assistant remained silent, Song Chi felt a deep, uneasy unease.
"Alright, if you find it difficult, then just pretend I didn't ask."
Upon hearing this, the shop assistant breathed a sigh of relief and secretly wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
Song Chi then asked, "Excuse me, how much do those diamond rings cost?"
"That's our prized possession, it costs two hundred million!"
What? Two hundred million!
After his initial shock, Song Chi's expression became extremely complex.
Seeing her silence, the shop assistant said, "Miss, if there's nothing else, I'll go back to work."
After saying that, she left as if fleeing.
Song Chi was immersed in her own terror, and her expression changed repeatedly.
The pair of diamond rings she tried on cost a whopping 200 million!
This was an astronomical figure for her!
She actually thought that Mu Yin's return was to buy the wedding rings.
But how could that be?
He was just fined 100,000 and suspended from his job. Where is he going to get 200 million to buy a diamond ring?
Song Chi shook his head and gave a self-deprecating laugh: "Why have I been so paranoid lately..."
Although she was young, she knew that the fundamental principle for a lasting relationship between husband and wife was mutual trust.
Lately, she has been suspecting that the older man is hiding something from her.
"No, this can't go on... I have to trust Uncle..."
Song Chi reassured himself, telling himself to trust the older man and stop doubting him.
With that thought in mind, she grabbed her bag, pressed the automatic button on her wheelchair, and left the store.
She planned to return to where she was and wait for her husband to go back to the hotel with her.
However, just as she reached the door, a pair of men walked in hand in hand, not noticing her, and accidentally bumped into her arm.
"ah……"
Song Chi let out a soft gasp, his hand instinctively reaching out to stroke his abdomen.
Thankfully, I only bumped into her arm, not her stomach!
The other person realized they had bumped into her and apologized repeatedly.
"I'm sorry, I didn't see you. Are you alright?"
Song Chi shook his head: "It's nothing."
Just as she was about to leave, the man in the suit who had accompanied Mu Yin inside earlier came excitedly to the front desk, his expression as excited as if he had won the lottery.
"Hurry up and swipe the card...swipe two hundred million..."
"I hereby declare that today is an auspicious day for our store! We've actually welcomed a God of Wealth who bought our store's prized possession. Everyone gets a bonus today..."
"Yay!"
The store employees cheered.
Song Chi stood there, stunned.
This man... the God of Wealth he's talking about, could he be an older man?
But that's two hundred million...
Song Chi's heart was pounding. Suppressing her emotions, she pressed the automatic button on her wheelchair and fled the shop, arriving at the mall entrance.
She stood at the doorway, her expression complicated, her fingers intertwined in a tangled mess.
A gust of wind blew by, gradually calming her chaotic mind.
She breathed a sigh of relief.
"Fool, don't think like that. How could an old man possibly have two hundred million..."
"But, the only people who went into the office just now, besides that man, were the middle-aged man..."
"Could it be... that there's a third person already waiting inside..."
"Perhaps it's all a misunderstanding... The uncle is such a good person, if anything happened to him, he would definitely explain it to me clearly..."
Song Chi muttered to himself, his mind wandering. He had finally calmed down, but now his mind was in turmoil again.
She instinctively chose to believe the older man.
But what she saw in front of her made her doubtful.
She rubbed her forehead, suddenly feeling utterly overwhelmed.
I tried to control myself and stop thinking about it, but my mind kept replaying the occasional strange and suspicious things he did when I was with him.
She also remembered how people around her would always joke that the uncle had an extraordinary aura and looked like a big boss.
In Song Chi's heart, he was once again certain that the uncle was hiding something from him.
As for what it was, she didn't know!
She took a deep breath and murmured to herself, "I don't know if I'm overthinking it, or if Uncle is really hiding something from me... Well... I guess I'll test him out..."
With that in mind, she began to think about how to test the older man.
Suddenly, a gentle voice sounded from behind.
"Chichi!"
Song Chi turned around and looked at Mu Yin walking towards her.
He was impeccably dressed in a suit, with stunning good looks and an elegant demeanor. Every gesture he made exuded a noble and graceful air.
Her heart pounded, and at the same time, the seed of doubt took root and sprouted again.
How could such an outstanding man be just a driver?
Moreover, his family is so rich!
Mu Yin walked up to her and saw that she was silent. He looked at her with concern and said, "Chichi, you look terrible. What's wrong? Let's go to the hospital for a checkup!"
"No, it's not necessary..."
Faced with the older man's concern, she felt that she had wronged him with her previous feelings.
Song Chi mustered his courage and asked, "Uncle, I have a question for you, and you have to tell me honestly, okay? Uncle, you can't lie to me..."
Mu Yin met her gaze, which held a mixture of clarity and scrutiny. For some reason, his breath caught in his throat, and he felt that something was about to be revealed...
