Director Zhao replied: "It has been too long. From the quilt and clothes obtained by Ms. Su Peilan, no useful information for the case could be extracted. We have also investigated the hospital that Ms. Su mentioned. Twenty-three years ago, surveillance was not as common as it is now, and surveillance videos could only be kept for a year at most. You didn’t let us investigate with great fanfare, so the case was very difficult to handle."
Lu Yanshu raised his hand and pinched his hard nose bones, "We are in the open, and the murderer is in the dark. Going to investigate in a big way will make the murderer jump over the wall, and Su Hua will be in danger."
"Yes, safety comes first. We will try our best to investigate as secretly as possible without leaking any information."
"Don't worry, call me if you have any clues."
"Okay, Yanshu."
After hanging up the phone, Lu Yanshu raised his eyes and looked at the mental hospital not far away.
The lights in that ward were left on all night.
The windows with bars are like cages, restraining the people inside.
There was a woman who was originally as gentle as water.
Nowadays, people are no longer human, and ghosts are no longer ghosts.
Lu Yanshu threw away the cigarette and started the car.
When he passed by Chu Suosuo's villa on the road, he sneered, a trace of disgust flashing in his eyes.
Hit the accelerator and drive the car very fast.
It seems that if you slow down a little, you will be contaminated by the dirty atmosphere emanating from the Chu family.
The next day.
Gu Beixian received the paternity test report from his assistant.
The identification results were the same as last time: confirmed biological parentage.
When Su Hua saw the appraisal report, she smiled at Gu Beixian: "You are too suspicious. The Lu family is not short of money or fame. If we are not related by blood, why do they need to recognize me? What are you doing? Everyone is busy. , no one will do anything that is unprofitable.”
Gu Beixian ruffled her hair lovingly, "You didn't have any doubts at all?"
Su Hua raised her small chin, "When I first saw him, I thought he was too young, and I was a little bit embarrassed. Later, the police issued a certificate and a paternity test was done, and I felt at ease. His temperament is elegant and calm, and he is very similar to me. , that kind of connection in the bones, the atmosphere of a family. My mother and I have lived together for so many years, and we have never felt that way."
"As long as you are happy." Gu Beixian raised his hand to pull her into his arms and kissed her gently on the forehead.
That night, Gu Beixian took Su Hua to a charity party.
Those who came were all from Kyoto's upper class.
Gu Beixian usually didn't like to bring Su Hua to places like this, knowing that she didn't like the excitement.
But after Su Hua repeatedly rejected her remarriage, he wanted to take her out more and let people know that she was his woman.
This would save Lu Yanshu from arranging a blind date for Su Hua in the future.
He wants to nip the enemy in the bud in advance.
The proceeds from this auction will be used to donate to out-of-school children in mountainous areas.
As soon as the two entered the hall, they attracted the attention of countless people.
The combination of handsome men and beautiful women is a beautiful sight wherever they go.
The auction begins.
The first item to be auctioned was a cheongsam from the Republic of China period, with a starting price of 5,000 yuan.
After several bids, it was bought by a man for 50,000 yuan.
After taking pictures of five lots, the sixth lot on the table was an emerald necklace.
The necklace was handed down from ancestors by Ms. Ai, the organizer of this charity party, and there was no reserve price for the auction.
The necklace is made of 58 emeralds.
The gemstone is dark green with a hint of grass green, and the water head is excellent, green and moist.
The market price of a necklace of this quality is over ten million.
Those who came were all knowledgeable, and everyone made bids one after another.
In a short period of time, the price has reached 10 million.
When it goes up to 10 million, there are obviously a lot fewer people asking for the price.
In a few days it will be my mother Su Peilan’s birthday.
She usually likes to wear emerald jewelry.
Su Hua held up the sign and shouted: "Eleven million."
The auctioneer looked at the sign she held up and shouted loudly: "VIP No. 88, eleven million once, VIP No. 88, eleven million twice. Is there anyone who bids higher?"
At this time, a delicate voice came from the corner, "I will pay 12 million."
Su Hua turned around and saw a familiar and delicate face.
Wearing a tailor-made brand-name dress, her makeup was exquisite, and all kinds of expensive jewelry were piled on her slender neck and ears, sparkling.
It's Chu Suosuo.
It's not unusual to meet her here.
After all, a socialite daughter like her is a frequent visitor to various evening parties, dances and cocktail parties.
Su Hua turned around, held up the number plate, and calmly shouted: "Twenty million."
Just as Chu Suosuo was about to hold up the sign to call out the price, the words were already on his lips. When he heard her shouting 20 million, he retracted his hand.
Twelve million already made her head feel heavy, her face was swollen to look fat, and she gritted her teeth before shouting out.
After all, I have to rely on my parents for daily expenses.
But Chu Suosuo was very unwilling to lose to Su Hua like this.
She braced herself and shouted: "Twenty-one million."
Su Hua's expression remained unchanged as she held up a sign and shouted, "Thirty million."
Chu Suosuo's scalp exploded, and his face turned red and white.
Everyone noticed something was wrong with these two people and turned to look at Chu Suosuo.
Since Chu Suosuo returned to China, she has frequently attended such occasions. She is usually high-profile and pushy, so everyone naturally knows her.
Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Chu Suosuo couldn't lose face, so he raised his sign and shouted: "Thirty-one million."
Gu Beixian squeezed Su Hua's soft fingers and said, "Fifty million, I'll pay."
Su Hua smiled brightly at him, raised the sign, and shouted calmly and elegantly: "I will pay 50 million."
The whole place was in an uproar.
This necklace is indeed beautiful, with good water quality and clarity, but its market price is just over 10 million.
However, Su Hua paid nearly five times the price. Either she was inhumane, or the man around her was inhumane.
Everyone turned to look at Chu Suosuo again, waiting for her to bid.
After all, those who watch the excitement don’t think it’s a big deal.
Chu Suosuo's face suddenly turned pale. She couldn't get 50 million even if she was beaten to death. If she filmed this, she would definitely be scolded by her parents when she went back.
But everyone looked at her and put her on the fire.
It would be too shameful to admit defeat.
No matter who you lose to, you can’t lose to Su Hua!
Chu Suosuo took a deep breath, gritted his teeth, and shouted tremblingly: "Fifty-one million."
The whole hall fell silent.
Everyone looked towards Su Hua and waited for her to pay 60 million.
But Su Hua didn't move at all, and she had no intention of lifting the sign in her hand.
Gu Beixian glanced sideways, his beautiful dark eyes as clear as water, and said to her: "For 60 million, don't worry, your man has plenty of money."
Su Hua raised her eyebrows slightly at him, "I'm not stupid. Just to gain reputation, I spent so much unjust money on a necklace. She has money, let her take the photo."
Gu Beixian patted her hand and said, "You are getting more and more sinister."
Su Hua smiled, "If you are wandering around in the world, how can you not be cunning?"
The auctioneer was so excited that he shouted: "VIP No. 133 once for 51 million, VIP No. 133 for 51 million twice, VIP No. 133 for 51 million three times, the deal is done!"
He slammed the auction hammer down and said, "Thank you to VIP No. 133 for being so caring. All proceeds from the auction will be donated to children in mountainous areas."
A necklace with a market value of 10 million was sold for more than 50 million by him.
It is the most brilliant achievement in his career history.
How could he not be excited?
Contrary to the auctioneer's excitement, Chu Suosuo's face was deathly pale and he was not happy at all.
I never expected that Su Hua would regret it halfway and stop accepting the move.
More than 50 million, where would she get so much money?
If you ask your parents for it, you will definitely be severely criticized.
Chu Suosuo thought about it, picked up his phone, and sent a message to Gu Lin: Brother A Lin, can you lend me 40 million?
After waiting for a long time, Gu Lin didn't reply.
Chu Suosuo was disheartened.
The auction continues.
In the end, Suhua spent five million to buy a Tahitian pearl necklace.
The golden pearls are particularly beautiful. Each pearl is almost completely round. Under the light, it exudes a faint golden light. My mother will definitely like it.
After the auction ends.
Su Hua took Gu Beixian's check to pay and sign the contract.
After signing out, he saw Chu Suosuo huddled in the corner, calling around to borrow money with his mobile phone.
She had her back to Su Hua and didn't see her coming.
Su Hua stood quietly and listened to a few words.
I heard Chu Suosuo's mournful voice saying: "Brother A Lin, we are an unmarried couple and we will get married in the future. So what if you lent me 40 million? It's not like I won't pay it back to you."
Gu Lin sneered, "Who wants to marry you? You guys jointly forced me to make an engagement. I didn't even mention the marriage."
Chu Suosuo acted coquettishly: "Brother A Lin, don't be so heartless..."
Gu Lin picked up the phone impatiently.
Listening to the busy signal on the phone, Chu Suo was breathless.
He turned around and saw Su Hua.
She became angry with embarrassment, "Are you satisfied with hurting me like this?"
Su Hua smiled faintly, "Is Miss Chu born in the year of the fish? Her memory only lasts for seven seconds. How quickly did she forget that you provoked me first? You are so competitive that you keep raising prices. Do you blame me? If you don't have a diamond, just Don’t take up the porcelain job, you don’t have that much money, so what’s the big deal?”
Chu Suosuo stared at her intently, his chest heaving violently with anger.
She lifted her feet and left.
When she passed by Su Hua, she deliberately bumped into her and said sullenly: "Why is an illegitimate daughter so arrogant? No matter how arrogant she is, she is just a bastard."
Buzz!
Su Hua's mind suddenly became confused.
She grabbed Chu Suosuo's collar and pushed her to the wall, "Who do you think is the illegitimate daughter?"
Chu Suosuo saw her expression changed drastically and smiled successfully, "You, you are the illegitimate daughter of Lu Yanshu and a wild woman. You are just a bastard. What is there to be proud of?"
Su Hua pressed her neck firmly, "Try saying it again."
Chu Suosuo smiled ferociously, "Illegitimate daughter! Bastard!"
"Snapped!"
Su Hua slapped her in the face, hitting her head sideways, and her hair covered half of her face.
Chu Suosuo was beaten so dumb that his face was numb from the pain.
After a while.
She suddenly raised her hand and threw it hard at Su Hua's face.
But it came to nothing.
Su Hua was pulled away by a slender, cold white hand.
Gu Beixian pulled her behind him to protect him and looked down at her, "What happened? Why is your face so ugly?"
Su Hua's small face was extremely pale.
She lowered her eyelashes and whispered, "She said I was an illegitimate daughter and a bastard."
Gu Bei You’re such a despicable child, are you worthy of talking about Su Hua? You can’t even compare to a hair of hers!”
These words are too hurtful.
No matter how thick-skinned Chu Suosuo is, he can't stand it.
She looked at him with tears in her eyes, "Brother Beixian, even if we can't be a couple, we are childhood sweethearts who grew up together. You don't have to be so mean to me, right? It's so heartbreaking."
She covered her face and cried, her shoulders shaking from crying, just like a little quail in the rain.
Gu Beixian smiled coldly, "Knowing you is the greatest shame in my life! If I could choose, I would rather never know you!"
