The staff member named Zhang Mei looked apologetic: "The truck was in an accident during transport, and everything on the truck was burned. Your belongings are also missing."
Jiang Yilai became emotional: "These things are very important to me! I don't need any compensation, I just want what's mine!"
"Madam, I understand how you feel, but the item is truly missing, and there's really nothing we can do. We can only try our best to offer you compensation of appropriate value."
Zhang Mei kept repeating the same two sentences over and over.
Jiang Yilai was so angry that she felt dizzy.
There was no point in arguing any further, so she left after finding out the location of the car accident.
After she left, Zhang Mei quickly hid behind her and made a phone call.
After the other party answered, she lowered her voice and said, "Hello, Ms. Jiang just came by. She asked about the location of the car accident and then left. I think she probably wants to go and check it herself."
A gentle voice came from the other end of the line: "It's alright, everything is arranged, she won't find anything."
"That's good." Zhang Mei paused, then smiled and said, "So you promised..."
"Don't worry, the money will arrive today."
"Oh! Thank you!"
Zhang Mei hung up the phone with a smile, but her expression changed drastically as soon as she turned around.
"What are you doing here?!"
Behind her was one of her colleagues.
My colleague picked up the file in his hand and waved it around: "I'm looking for something."
Zhang Mei, her face stiff, tentatively asked, "When did you arrive? Did you hear anything...?"
"I just came in." The colleague looked puzzled: "What did you hear?"
"It's nothing, it's nothing."
Seeing that her colleague looked normal, Zhang Mei breathed a sigh of relief.
She greeted them and walked out with a smile.
Family-oriented.
Gu Nianqiang hung up the phone, her face instantly turning gloomy.
She threw her phone on the bed, walked to the dressing table, and pulled open the bottom of the dressing box.
Deep inside, there was a black velvet bag.
Gu Nianqiang was holding the bag when two small things fell out of it.
It was that lost button and the jade pendant with the character "้กต"!
She held the two items in her hands, her expression shifting between anger and uncertainty.
Just a hair's breadth away from revealing Jiang Yilai's true identity!
Yesterday, Gu Ming'en excitedly told me as soon as he got back that he had found a clue about Gu Qiang.
Yes, Gu Qiang.
Gu Qiang is the youngest daughter of the Gu family and Gu Ming'en's younger sister.
She went missing as a child and was never found, but the Gu family never gave up on finding her.
She was just an orphan who was adopted and named Gu Nianqiang because she looked like Gu Qiang.
Gu Nianqiang thought about the past, her eyes revealing disgust.
She lived in Gu Qiang's shadow all along.
That old hag from the Gu family looked down on her and never gave her a friendly look. She had deep feelings for Gu Qiang, so she always thought she was an imposter.
But Gu Mingen was a filial son, so he always told her to go along with the old woman, avoid her, and be dutiful to her.
If this old woman knew that Jiang Yilai was Gu Qiang's daughter, she would have even less of a place in the Gu family!
So when Gu Ming'en said that, her heart started to panic.
Gu Nianqiang immediately tried to subtly obtain clues.
It was just a certificate of authenticity for a jade pendant with buttons and inscriptions.
Gu Ming'en insisted that the button belonged to Gu Qiang, and the engraved jade pendant also belonged to the Gu family. However, due to the confidentiality agreement of the appraisal company and the client's request, detailed client information could not be obtained at present.
