Jiang Baobao was stunned for a moment.
Looking into Li Beijue's deep eyes, he forcibly concealed the panic that flashed through his heart.
She blinked and quickly searched for answers in her brain.
After a two-second pause, he pretended to be nonchalant and replied: "He is no longer here..."
"No more?" Li Beijue frowned slightly.
Jiang Baobao nodded, not daring to look directly into his eyes, and quickly continued to arrange: "Car accident."
As she spoke, in order to make her voice sound more realistic, she deliberately lowered her voice and sounded as if she was sad.
Li Beijue's eyes flickered for a moment and he said nothing, but a hint of displeasure accidentally leaked out of his eyes.
Is she sad?
Li Beijue suddenly felt a strange feeling in his heart, and his eyes suddenly turned cold.
Jiang Baobao quickly married another man as soon as he divorced him, and he still misses her now?
Li Beijue was not aware of his emotions at all, but without saying a word, he opened the door and got in the car.
Then he said coldly: "I have to go to the company and don't have time to see you off.
He said nothing and stepped on the accelerator.
Jiang Baobao was still immersed in the emotion just now. Hearing this, he subconsciously raised his head and saw only the back of the black car speeding away.
She was stunned for a moment, then rolled her eyes at the sky speechlessly.
How could Li Beijue be so sentimental?
Who asked him to send it?
He said it as if he wanted to ride in his car!
Jiang Baobao made a face at Li Beijue's car driving away, planning to take a taxi back to the villa, drive, and then return to the base to handle work.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he arrived at the door of Li Mansion, he heard his cell phone ringing.
Looking at the series of numbers on the screen, she found a quiet corner and picked up the phone.
"What's wrong?"
She asked in a low voice, looking a little serious.
The person on the other end of the phone immediately reported: "Boss, what you want to investigate has been found. Jiang Chenghao had an accident five years ago. It is said that he broke his head in a car accident. The Jiang family's company was also renamed five years ago. Lord, everything has been taken over by the Lu family."
"Car accident?" Jiang Baobao looked hesitant for a moment.
Immediately afterwards, the person on the other end of the phone was heard saying in confusion: "This car accident seems to be quite thrilling, but... I don't know whether Jiang Chenghao is lucky or unlucky. He only suffered a lot of injuries." Some simple skin injuries, no muscles or bones were injured, but the head was injured..."
Jiang Baobao frowned, feeling that something was a little awkward.
The car accident only damaged his head... Was this really just an unfortunate accident?
"Boss, there's nothing else. Is there anything else you want to check?"
The person on the other end of the phone asked again, bringing Jiang Baobao back from his thoughts.
Jiang Baobao said hurriedly: "Help me check the car accident that year. If you have any news, tell me immediately."
"Yes." The person opposite agreed.
The phone was hung up and Jiang Baobao stood there for a long time without moving.
Car accident...
My uncle got his driver's license when he was still in school. He always drives carefully, so how could he suddenly...
Jiang Baobao thought for two seconds and strode towards the direction where he parked his car.
I promised my grandma to go back and have a look. It’s better to choose a different day, so I’ll go back today!
…
Li family——
Li Beijue had a gloomy face all the way.
No one on the road dared to say hello to him.
He went directly to the office and turned on the computer, but he was not in the mood to work.
After a moment of silence, he heard a noise at the office door.
Then he looked up and saw his assistant, holding a document bag and standing cautiously at the door.
"Come in." Li Beijue said in a deep voice.
Assistant Chen responded, hurriedly closed the door, walked in with the document bag, and placed the things in his hands in front of Li Beijue.
"Mr. Li, there is news about the necklace you asked me to check before."
"Found it?"
Li Beijue's expression suddenly changed, and he hurriedly reached out and picked up the document bag.
He moved quickly and took out a drawing for painting.
I saw a design draft of a necklace drawn on it.
It is exactly the same as the necklace he has treasured for many years!
"Where was this design found? Who is the owner of the necklace?"
Li Beijue's eyes showed a rare hint of excitement, and he couldn't wait to ask.
Assistant Chen's expression suddenly became a little subtle.
He was silent for two seconds, and then he answered bravely: "Mr. Li, I got this design drawing purely by chance. I have a friend who invited me to visit a jewelry designer a few days ago. I didn't intend to I just saw this manuscript. She said...it was a style she designed twenty years ago. At that time, it was only given to a close friend of hers and was not sold to the public, but..."
Assistant Chen suddenly stopped mid-sentence.
Li Beijue hated it when others were half-talking, so he asked in a deep voice: "But what?"
Assistant Chen could only continue to answer: "But the other party passed away sixteen years ago."
Li Beijue's fingers trembled violently and he almost dropped the design in his hand to the ground.
Sixteen years ago…
Could it be that that girl had an accident that year, so there was no news from her for so many years?
Li Beijue frowned, his expression was gloomy and terrible, and he couldn't accept it for a while.
She was so kind and lovely, how could she just disappear into this world quietly!
He thought about countless possibilities, but he never thought that this might be the result!
It was so quiet in Noda's office that you could almost hear a pin drop.
Assistant Chen was too timid to speak and looked down at the carpet in silence.
Li Beijue looked gloomy and suddenly let out a long sigh.
He looked at the drawing in his hand, and the pressure around him was frighteningly low.
Is she really dead?
Could it be that God just makes people like this?
Li Beijue was full of unwillingness, and his eyes glanced at the lower right corner of the paper.
The year and date when this manuscript was drawn are written there.
Li Beijue stared at it for a few seconds, and suddenly he reacted like a flash of lightning, and asked hurriedly: "How old is the designer you just mentioned?"
Assistant Chen was stunned for a moment, considered for two seconds, and then replied: "This... looks like he is at least fifty years old."
"Fifty……"
Li Beijue murmured this number in a low voice, and a big stone suddenly fell in his heart.
If I am fifty this year, I would have been thirty-three sixteen years ago.
At that age, there was no way she could be close friends with an eleven or twelve-year-old girl!
Li Beijue felt much more relaxed and stared at the drawing in his hand for a few more seconds before continuing to ask: "Who is the designer's close friend you just mentioned?"
The assistant hurriedly replied: "The designer didn't say much. At present, I only know that the other person's name is Xia Xuerou."
When Li Beijue heard this, his fingers paused slightly, and a dark light flashed in his eyes.
Xia Xuerou?
This name is so familiar. Where have you heard it before?
But I can’t remember it!
Li Beijue tapped his fingers lightly on the table, pondered for two seconds, and ordered in a low voice: "Go and check all Xia Xuerou's information, and report to me if there is any situation!"
