“That won’t do, Officer Liang. She’s an important suspect. We have to bring her back!”
Shi Tian became anxious again when he heard that Officer Liang did not want to bring Gu Qingchen back.
Officer Liang turned around and glared at Shi Tian. His tone was harsh and cold, “CEO Shi, if you continue to be so unreasonable and disrupt our law enforcement, I’ll have to invite you to the police station. The person who robbed you clearly had nothing to do with Ms. Gu. Alright, we’ll handle this matter. You don’t have to tell us what to do.”
Tang Feng came out to take a walk and settled the matter. Gu Qingchen did not have to go to the police station anymore.
Shi Tian was brought to the police station by Officer Liang. He heard that Shi Wei was injured, so she did not come here and was sent to the hospital.
Tang Feng did not take this matter seriously at all. To him, it was not worth mentioning at all.
“How are you going to thank me? I’ve solved a big problem for you.”
Tang Feng looked at Gu Qingchen with a smug look, waiting for Gu Qingchen to repay him.
Gu Qingchen only blinked her eyes and said with a look of surprise, “A good citizen should cooperate with the police, right? If you want to receive thanks, it should be Officer Liang thanking you for cooperating with his work.”
Perhaps because he was used to being provoked by Gu Qingchen, Tang Feng was not angered this time. He just shook his head helplessly and looked at Gu Qingchen with sparkling eyes.
Gu Qingchen narrowed her eyes and looked at Tang Feng.
“What is the relationship between Young Master Rong and Gu Qingchen? I can’t get any information out of him. This is torture.”
Gu Qingchen raised her eyebrows slightly. Young Master Rong?
This name was really familiar.
Could it be… that he was the same person as the Young Master Rong that her master mentioned before?
Could it be a coincidence!
Gu Qingchen could not help but raise her eyes again and look straight at the glass window on the second floor. She felt a little regretful.
After her rebirth, why didn’t she have a pair of X-ray vision? That way, she could see the person behind the glass window.
“What are you looking at? You are staring so intensely.”
Tang Feng waved his hand in front of Gu Qingchen’s eyes a few times, interrupting her line of sight.
“It’s nothing. Don’t forget my five million. I’m going back first.”
Since she couldn’t see Young Master Rong upstairs, she didn’t force it. It was getting late. It was time for her to go home. She still had to return the IOU in her pocket to her father.
Thinking of this, Gu Qingchen’s heart relaxed, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.
Tang Feng was confused. In any case, the result was that Gu Qingchen left the place with ease. He stood there blankly and watched her leave.
Very soon, Tang Feng smiled at his actions and turned to go upstairs.
Not far from the door, Gu Qingchen saw Ding Hao, the person who wanted to buy her raw stone. At this time, Ding Hao was on the phone, and his tone was anxious as if there was something he could not solve.
When Gu Qingchen walked over, Ding Hao happened to hang up the phone. When he looked up and saw Gu Qingchen, he was stunned for a moment, then smiled and greeted her.
Gu Qingchen also nodded at him as a form of courtesy.
“Wait a minute, Ms. Gu.”
Just when Gu Qingchen was about to walk out of Ding Hao’s sight, Ding Hao seemed to have thought of something. He called Gu Qingchen and ran a few steps towards Gu Qingchen.
“I’m really sorry for the intrusion, but I have a presumptuous request. I wonder if Ms. Gu will agree?”
Gu Qingchen smiled slightly and said slowly, “May I know what Mr. Ding wants?”
Ding Hao was the owner of the largest jewelry store in City Y, and Gu Qingchen knew this. Now that Ding Hao had a request for her, Gu Qingchen naturally knew how to deal with it.
She understood the principle of the more friends you have in life, the more options you have in life.
Ding Hao was different from Tang Feng. The Tang Group was a large corporation that people looked up to from afar, and Tang Feng’s character had always been boundless. Gu Qingchen knew her own capabilities, so it was better to be on good terms with Ding Hao.
To put it bluntly, it was because Tang Feng had a lofty position, and their statuses were too far apart. At this stage, there wasn’t a need for her to deal with Tang Feng.
If people gossiped about her, her parents would not feel at ease.
But Ding Hao was different. Although she did not have much capital now, Gu Qingchen believed that she could still reach Ding Hao’s status in a short time.
Not forgetting that she still had the five million from the three-colored jade. As long as she made good use of it, the Gu family would definitely make a comeback.
“Uh, it’s like this. I see that Ms. Gu seems to know a lot about jade today, so I want to ask Ms. Gu for a favor. It’s like this. Our jewelry store is in urgent need of a person who knows raw stones. At the end of this month, there’s a large-scale stone gambling event. I’d like to invite Miss Gu to help with identifying. I wonder if Ms. Gu has the time?”
Large-scale stone gambling event?
Gu Qingchen was very interested. Moreover, it was at the end of this month. Before that, she still had time to prepare properly.
“Mr. Ding, I’m interested in the stone gambling event that you mentioned, but I don’t understand why you came to me. Generally speaking, doesn’t the jewelry store have their own people who specialize in identifying raw stones for jewelry?”
Gu Qingchen still didn’t believe that a pie fell from the sky.
Ding Hao looked a little embarrassed, but in the end, he still explained, “Originally, the jewelry store had specialized people in charge. If I had the time, I could also be in charge.
“But this time, the stone gambling event will be very big, and we need to buy a large number of stones. And those professional staff suddenly quit together. For a time, I couldn’t find so many suitable people. Today, I saw that Ms. Gu seemed to have a good understanding of raw stones, that’s why I took the liberty to invite you. I hope Ms. Gu won’t take offense.”
Seeing that Gu Qingchen was thinking, Ding Hao immediately said, “Of course, I won’t let Ms. Gu help for free. The payment is negotiable. Here is my business card. If Ms. Gu has the intention, give me a call.”
Gu Qingchen took Ding Hao’s business card and nodded. She didn’t say whether she agreed or not. She just said, “Okay. If I’m interested, I’ll give you a call.”
Ding Hao didn’t force her. He was desperate. Today, Gu Qingchen discovered a three-colored jade. Even if Gu Qingchen’s ability to identify raw stones was average, at least it showed that she was lucky.
Ding Hao was casting a wide net. He had already gotten in touch with some people, but they were contacted at the last minute. He felt a little uneasy.
He invited Gu Qingchen to come along because he thought it would be easier to have one more person.
With the business card in her hand and the IOU in her pocket, she went to the Hundred Herb Hall first to take a look. When she saw that her master had not come out, she left again.
Fortunately, the Hundred Herb Hall had hired staff. Otherwise, the Hundred Herb Hall would be closed for the time being.
When she returned home and was having her dinner, Gu Qingchen took out the IOU and handed it to her father, Gu Yuanchuan.
Gu Yuanchuan took the IOU and opened it. He was dumbfounded. He raised his head and asked hurriedly, “Chenchen, where did you get this IOU? Why is it in your hands?”
Mrs. Gu put down the bowl and chopsticks in shock and looked at her daughter.
