Chapter 84: Chapter 84: Sure Enough, Found It_1
Song Yunuan made a round and, with Old Mr. Ji there, there shouldn’t be any problems. She got back into the car and returned to the guest house.
She spent time eating, drinking, playing, and having fun with the two kids.
Old Mr. Ji gave her 300 yuan for her to spend as pocket money, yet she hadn’t spent a cent of her own money.
Without needing to go to the site, the arrival of two more groups of people proved that something must have been discovered again.
On the afternoon of the third day, Gu Huai’an came back. He had other matters to attend to and needed to return to Dragon Aviation.
Perhaps she had gotten too used to his looks; the calls of ’handsome brother’ had stopped, and the words of fierce wolves were no longer uttered.
However, the girl with big watery eyes looked at him and suddenly asked, "Guess where we’ll meet next time?"
Gu Huai’an felt a tightness in his chest but remained expressionless, "... Old Mr. Ji asked me to tell you that the book you mentioned has been found!"
Song Yunuan’s eyes lit up with surprise, "Ah, then Old Mr. Ji must be really happy."
She continued, "You haven’t answered my question just now?"
Gu Huai’an pretended not to hear and gazed intently at Song Yunuan. His voice was no longer the usual cold tone, carrying a bit of softness, "Song Yunuan, I heard from Old Mr. Ji that you didn’t even pass your high school entrance exams. It was Old Mr. Ji who pulled strings for you to attend high school."
Song Yunuan sighed, "Actually, I originally wanted to work as a factory worker at an electronics factory."
Gu Huai’an glanced at her sideways, "But you only took one subject, and for the other, you turned in a blank paper?"
"You know about this too?" Song Yunuan was genuinely surprised.
[So you know even this, and you still say you have no intentions towards me?]
Gu Huai’an: ...
He shouldn’t have come.
Gu Huai’an interrupted her thoughts, "Old Mr. Ji arranged things so that even if you scored zero, you could still enter No. 1 High School. But you couldn’t really submit a blank paper, right?"
Song Yunuan pondered, [Is the young brother urging me to study hard and attend a good university so I can be worthy of your family’s status in the future?]
Gu Huai’an composed himself, stood up, and looked down at the smiling girl from a height.
You sure are daring with your thoughts.
And you’re thinking quite far ahead too.
[Young brother, you’re leaving, huh? I’m a bit reluctant to let you go. Could you sit down and let me have one more look at you?]
Gu Huai’an held back and softened his voice, "Old Mr. Ji asked me to tell you that he’ll be back tomorrow and then will take you all back to Nanshan."
After saying these words, Gu Huai’an left without looking back.
He moved so swiftly that Song Yunuan didn’t have a chance to say thank you and goodbye.
Gu Huai’an, who was tall with long legs, quickly disappeared from Song Yunuan’s sight.
Song Yunuan turned her head and went to look for the two kids.
Gu Huai’an, standing at the door, indeed didn’t catch a single sound.
In fact, it was just a corner wall between them.
He had already gotten used to Song Yunuan’s forgetful nature. With a calm expression, he got into his car. Secretary Wu also breathed a sigh of relief, and the party quickly left the guest house in Herr City.
Meanwhile, in the provincial city, Qin Siqi and Lin Qing said goodbye. Lin Qing was heading to Beidu, while Siqi prepared to tell her parents that she didn’t want to attend the vocational school for staff children that she had been guaranteed admission to. She didn’t want to start working and then attend training for an associate’s degree, which seemed like a waste of time. The path she’d glimpsed in her daze didn’t seem good. With later study experience in her mind, it would be better to go straight to high school.
She would still take the college entrance exam, surpassing that Song Yunuan.
"Everyone returning to their own place," what a good phrase.
Back in Beidu, Lin Qing was sought out by her father and stepmother. Lin Du looked at his angry daughter and sighed, "Jia, Qing, the Jade Ruyi is not something that belongs to the Wey Family. It is our Lin family’s heirloom. I gave it to your mother, and she, wanting to gain your grandfather’s approval for our marriage, used the Jade Ruyi to win him over."
Lin Jia frowned and looked coldly at the two people. "Is this what you’re referring to?"
Father Lin: "Don’t worry. I won’t ask for the item back. You are also the descendants of Lin Du; I’m not that heartless. I came here to give you the box that it should be stored in. It’s also made of purple sandalwood, the proper place for the Jade Ruyi."
After these words, Lin Qing’s stepmother opened the canvas bag, took out a small wooden box, and handed it to Lin Qing with a smile, "Whether this is true or false, you can ask your grandfather later. Actually, this is intended for the Lin family’s daughter-in-law, but considering the two of you hold grudges against me, I don’t want it anymore. I’ll leave it to you two sisters. Therefore, keeping this box in the Lin family means nothing. So I decided to bring it over with Old Lin."
Lin Jia took the box, her expression filled with suspicion.
Lin Du: "Someone like your grandfather is not someone I dare lie to. Once this matter is confronted, the truth will become crystal clear."
Lin Qing didn’t want to speak with this despicable man and vile woman, so she chased them out after a few words.
At that time, Lin Qing was living in a quadrangle courtyard bought for her by her grandfather.
She picked up the Jade Ruyi and opened the box, then said to Lin Jia, "Sister, I’m going out for a bit."
"What are you going to do?"
"I’m going to have someone check if the box is real or fake."
Lin Jia: "You go ahead, I’ll tidy up some things."
"Sis, we will find a nanny in a few days. Your leg and your body need rest and recuperation; you can’t overwork yourself. Otherwise, if there’s really a problem, Old Master Ji won’t intervene anymore."
Lin Jia: "I am aware. I’m doing everything as Old Mr. Ji said."
Lin Qing went to find Azhong, and the two of them went to Rare Treasures Atelier.
Old Master Hu from Rare Treasures Atelier had a very high level of appraisal expertise; it would be good to have him look at this box to see what the deal was with it.
Nowadays, purple sandalwood is also valuable.
When they arrived, Old Master Hu was entertaining guests.
They sat in the foyer’s sofa, waiting.
Soon after, they saw Old Master Hu come out to bid the guest farewell.
However, he didn’t walk outwards. Instead, he stood in the corridor leading to the living room from the foyer.
From the angle where Lin Qing was seated, she could see everything very clearly.
The guest was a short man with a face full of smiles. He said, "Mazi told me that the official furnace was sold to an old man surnamed Song from Sunflower Commune. I’m heading personally to Nanshan County Town, and you can expect good news."
Old Master Hu was also grinning, "That’s good to hear."
Lin Qing felt her heart skip a beat. Who was this man?
An old man surnamed Song from Sunflower Commune?
Could it be Old Man Song from Erdao River Village?
Could it be him?
The man then lowered his voice, "Mazi told me he initially wanted to sell them all, thinking they were replicas from the past. But that old man had no money, so his grandson just pointed at the Plum Blossom Official Furnace, saying he wanted that one."
"It might just be a coincidence. Tell Mazi not to make trouble," advised Old Master Hu earnestly.
Lin Qing wanted to say something but then remembered Gu Huai’an’s warning and thus withdrew the step she was about to take.
She sat back down on the sofa.
Right then, Old Master Hu came out to see the guest off.
The two did not converse further, and Old Master Hu personally escorted the man out.
Lin Qing’s face showed a mix of emotions, which then settled back into calmness.
It seemed that little bastard from the Song family really knew something.
