After getting in the car, we drove towards the city. Captain Liu drove the car himself and Xiao Qilei sat in the passenger seat.
I sat in the back with my grandma and eldest sister. During this period, Captain Liu kept smiling and talking to Xiao Qilei. We in the back seat listened with bated breath.
After Captain Liu chatted with Xiao Qilei for a while, he asked Xiao Qilei to put in a good word in front of Director Yue, which was very important for his career.
After a while, Captain Liu asked politely: "Mr. Xiao, I wonder how your grandfather Xiao Yuanzhou is doing. Is he in good health?"
When I heard this, my heart moved. I felt that Xiao Yuanzhou was definitely a powerful and important figure.
I can definitely investigate Xiao Yuanzhou's identity and know what Xiao Qilei's family does.
This kind of ability to make the police polite is no longer something that a simple business family can achieve.
I glanced at the eldest sister and whispered in his ear: "Eldest sister, this person you are dating is really powerful. We can investigate his grandfather..."
What I mean is that through his grandfather, he knows what the Xiao family does.
Unexpectedly, the eldest sister gave me a fierce look and told me to investigate without any trouble. There are some forces that we cannot provoke. Don't cause unnecessary trouble for yourself.
Then he said that even if the Xiao family is a high-ranking official, the eldest sister has no interest in these things. She just wants to live an ordinary and happy life with Xiao Qilei.
In terms of material and wealth, the eldest sister has very low requirements, as long as she doesn't starve to death.
In fact, in terms of relationships, I am the same as my eldest sister. My love values are that emotional and spiritual feelings come first.
Money is dispensable, just enough to spend and not starve to death. There really are not many material needs.
But some women are different.
I suddenly thought of Xiao Mengxin, and I suddenly felt irritable. She is that kind of extreme materialist. Emotions are dispensable to her, and material and value come first. I really hate this kind of person.
But Xiao Mengxin is still my favorite person, which really makes me conflicted and entangled.
I was thinking wildly when the outline of the city appeared in front of me, and finally the car stopped in front of the police station in the suburbs. This must be the Hualian City Branch.
I just don’t know what level of leader Director Yue was on Xiao Qilei’s phone call.
After entering the police station, they said they were going to record a confession, but Team Liu simply asked my grandma the purpose of going to Xiangyang Village and didn’t even make a transcript.
Then he served us tea very politely and chatted with us with a smile, as if we were leaders from the city who came to inspect.
We were exhausted physically and mentally after staying in Xiangyang Village for a whole day and night, so we simply relaxed here for a while. After about an hour, grandma asked what time it was.
I saw that the time was almost ten o'clock. Xiao Qilei was a man who was good at observing people's actions. He stood up and said goodbye to Captain Liu and said he had to leave beforehand.
Then we left the police station with Captain Liu’s words of reluctance and escort.
After getting into Xiao Qilei's car, I didn't see Gongsun Qingyu's person until the car drove away. I don't know where he went. He might still be under investigation at the police station.
As soon as he got into the car, his grandma praised him with admiration: "Qilei, you are really good at it. Thank you so much this time."
We really have to thank you. If Xiao Qilei hadn't come with us this time, we would definitely be in a lot of trouble.
"Grandma, you are too polite to say that. Why are you thanking me? We are all a family." Xiao Qilei said, and suddenly his cell phone rang.
After he got through, he frowned and talked to the other party, nodding from time to time. It sounded like a store at home was opening today, and he asked him to come over and take a look, entertain the customers or something.
I immediately became energetic. If I could go over and have a look, I would know exactly what the Xiao family does.
But now that I am relaxed and relaxed, my grandma asked me to call my uncle and ask how Jiang Lan is doing.
After I called, I learned that my uncle was still in the hospital and that Aunt Zhao Guijuan had also passed by. She was also shocked by the death.
It was learned from their mouths that Jiang Lan was out of danger, but her spirit was greatly stimulated and she could not communicate normally for the time being. It was unknown whether she would get better in the future.
Then my aunt answered the phone and asked me to give the phone to my grandma. The voice on the receiver was full of aunt's concern for her, saying that this was a big deal. If she had known about this, she shouldn't have gone. She also told grandma to go home quickly and take care of herself. Rest or something.
"Isn't my sister there? Do you still need me to go there?" Suddenly, Xiao Qilei, who was driving, took his mobile phone and frowned: "Ah, that's okay, I'll be there in a minute, that's all."
After hanging up the phone, Xiao Qilei said that his family's jewelry store was opening today, and there was a lot of activity. There were also many prominent people in the city to show their support, so he asked him to go over and entertain the guests.
Hearing this, I was shocked and looked at him with my mouth wide open. His family is actually in the jewelry business? No wonder he is so rich and powerful.
The eldest sister was also shocked, as was grandma, but before we could speak.
Xiao Qilei looked at my grandma again and said, "Grandma, let me send you, Xiao An and Xiao Mei home first, and then I'll go there."
"Wait a minute." The eldest sister said suddenly as if she had thought of something: "Qilei, you just said that your sister is there, right? I haven't seen your sister yet. I'll go with you later. Let's meet her. How is your sister?"
After the eldest sister finished speaking, she kept winking at me, and I knew what she meant.
"That's okay." After Xiao Qilei finished speaking, he turned back to look at me and my grandma, "Then let me send grandma and Xiao An home first."
"No rush, no rush." Grandma must have noticed the look in my eldest sister's eyes, and said with a smile: "It's okay for us to go home. I just want to go for a walk with you, join in the fun, just relax."
"Okay, grandma, I'll take you over and have a look." After Xiao Qilei finished speaking, he winked at me and said, "Xiao An, my sister is very beautiful."
When I heard this, I just smiled and looked out the window, disapprovingly. In my heart, only Xiao Mengxin was the most beautiful. Although I hated her, she was really the person I loved most.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Even if Xiao Qilei's sister is more beautiful than Chang'e, there is no comparison with Xiao Mengxin in my heart.
As we chatted, the car had already reached Zhongshan District, the most prosperous area. The high-rise buildings were closely connected and it was even more prosperous than the scene in front of the station.
Under many well-known shopping malls such as McKellar, there are rows of furniture and mobile phone stores.
Most of the passers-by on the pedestrian street are handsome young women in fashionable clothes, and it seems like my eyes can’t get enough of them.
When I was wondering how much the annual rent of a shop in this bustling area would be, a huge stage under a shopping mall came into view.
The stage covers an area of 100 square meters, with a festive red carpet on it. In front of it is a huge rainbow door. There are many speakers on the left and right sides. Behind the stage is a large screen that is more than ten meters tall.
The scene in the jewelry store was played on the screen, where female staff in uniforms greeted customers with a smile.
As soon as the screen turned, the words "Xiao's Jewelry Grand Opening" appeared on the screen, followed by the sound of advertisements and various activities, and there were many people watching.
As the car got closer, I was completely shocked when I saw the size of the store.
The store plaque actually stretches up to the height of five floors. It is so majestic that it almost envelops the entire shopping mall building.
The four vertical characters of "Xiao's Jewelry" are particularly domineering and conspicuous. There are many BMWs, Mercedes-Benz and other luxury cars that I don't recognize parked at the door.
Most of the people who come in and out of the store are in suits and leather shoes and have an extraordinary temperament. At first glance, they look like they are respectable people.
"Haha, they are all business elites and well-known figures in Hualian City. They are all here to support me. I will have to receive their wishes later." Xiao Qilei stopped the car and turned around and said: "Grandma, Xiao An, I will wait for a while. You can just walk into the store and take whatever jewelry you like..."
My eyes were still attracted by the grand jewelry facade, and I was shocked by Xiao Qilei's grand words. I can just take the jewelry?
I guess he was afraid that grandma would support him in buying jewelry, so he said this because he didn’t want grandma to spend money.
"Haha, Qilei, go ahead and go ahead. We won't cause you any trouble. We'll go in for a walk and see the world. I don't know how many gifts you'll get for opening your business. I guess you will too. If you don’t care about my little money, we just treat it as a favor.” Grandma smiled, looking a little embarrassed.
It’s true that this gift is not something that can be given easily. You might as well give it a few hundred yuan. How can someone who is in the jewelry business fancy our few hundred yuan? It’s really hard to get away with such a small gift, and it’s not embarrassing enough.
We can't afford it, but we can't afford the gift of several thousand. After all, in our rural areas, most people get married with a gift of 500 yuan or even 20 yuan.
"Grandma, what are you talking about? It's too outrageous. How can I ask you to spend money? And what I just said is true. You can take whatever jewelry you like." Xiao Qilei looked at my eldest sister again, " And your dear, this jewelry store will be yours from now on, you will be the boss lady, you can just take whatever jewelry you like."
The eldest sister blushed pretty, glared at him and said, "I don't care about your jewelry. Even if you give me the jewelry store, I won't take any of it. I'm not interested."
"Haha, I just like your uninterested attitude..." Xiao Qilei's eyes showed love. Just when he was about to speak, he suddenly looked at the door of the jewelry store and said quickly: "This is it. Director Yue is here to support me, grandma." , I have to go down and say hello, you can just take a stroll."
After speaking, Xiao Qilei got out of the car and hurriedly walked towards the door.
Director Yue?
Could it be Director Yue that Xiao Qilei called just now in Xiangyang Village?
We also quickly looked at the door, and saw a man in his fifties, wearing a suit, with a face like a crown jewel, a tall build, wearing glasses, and exuding the aura of a man of power, following a young and beautiful female worker out of the jewelry store. The staff chatted.
Suddenly, Director Yue saw Xiao Qilei walking towards him in the distance, laughed and went to meet him.
