Stubborn Love of a Roguish Scion Chapter 155

Chapter 155 - I Want Them Even If I Have To Declare Bankruptcy!

“Are you referring to Xiao Mei? She’s resigned to return home to the countryside.”

Ye Erruo almost spat out blood when she heard that!

“She’s returned to the countryside?” she asked in alarm, her voice rising.

“Y-Yeah.”

“When did she leave? How long has it been?”

“It’s been about a couple of hours now.”

I should still be able to catch up with her!

“Where does she live?”

“Uh… I’m not sure about this. We’ll have to find out from the housekeeper.”

She quickly went to look for the housekeeper. “Don’t the maids need to wait for a week for their resignation to be approved before leaving?”

“Other than the manager, everyone else in the household who’s involved in Young Madam and Young Master’s life does not need to wait a week for approval when they tender their resignation. The manager will accept the resignation letter and have it approved in about half an hour if there are no problems with it. Since Xiao Mei was mainly responsible for cleaning your bedroom, I believe her resignation was processed quickly.”

“…”

Minutes later, she managed to get hold of Xiao Mei’s countryside address and trace her flight’s boarding time.

The plane would be taking off at 1.45 pm, but alas, the time was currently 1.35 pm. It would be impossible to reach her in time, especially since the journey to the airport would take at least half an hour. Besides, Xiao Mei’s phone had been switched off, which clearly indicated that she had already gone through immigration check and boarded the plane. In fact, the plane might have already taken off…

Things would get a lot more troublesome if she had to wait for her to take a return flight and look for her, so that left her with the option of making a trip to Z City.

“Is there anything urgent that you need Xiao Mei for, Young Madam?” asked the housekeeper.

“She can’t leave just yet. She’s mistakenly taken something of mine.”

“I see… I’ll try to stop her flight then,” said the housekeeper as she pulled out her phone to make a call.

Her eyes lit up in hope!

A few minutes later, the housekeeper smiled and assured her, “It’s settled, Young Madam. Just wait a little while and Xiao Mei will be back.”

“Okay.”

The plane, which had taken off, made an immediate detour upon receiving the news from the control center, and all its passengers were given free tickets to board the next flight instead.

At the airport, a grumbling Xiao Mei was alighting from the plane along with the other passengers when several tall, burly men carried her away as soon as she stepped out of the cabin.

An hour or so later, she was brought back to Zhuang Ge Residence.

“Y-Young Madam?” A look of panic crossed her face.

“Where’s the box that I gave you earlier?”

This question stunned her. “I… I-I sold it.”

The corners of Ye Erruo’s lips twitched. Sold? How speedily she acts!

“Who did you sell it to?”

The lass was practically on the verge of tears by now. “Young Madam, you told me to deal with it however I wanted. Since there was no point in me keeping it, I sold it.”

“I’m asking you: Who did you sell it to?”

“I sold it directly to an auctioneer.”

“Let’s go and find it right away. Oh, right. How much did you sell it for?”

“N-Nine million yuan,” she carefully stammered out.

“…”

Soon, they arrived at the largest auction market, where many auctions were held daily. They arrived just in time, as the set of jewelry had just been put up for auction.

Countless people were amazed by the stunning set of pink diamond jewelry when it was displayed on the huge screen. It caused a great stir in the auction venue, and the bidding price climbed as high as eighty million yuan.

“Eighty million…” Xiao Mei’s eyes bulged wide when she heard the bidding price. She had sold the jewelry to the auctioneer for only a measly nine million yuan.

“Eighty million! Any higher bids?”

“Ninety million!” cried Ye Erruo through gritted teeth as she walked closer to the auction area.

“One hundred million.”

“A hundred and fifty million!”

“One billion!”

Xiao Mei was completely floored.

“Two billion!” No one knew who the bidder was, but their bidding price had the entire auction venue falling into complete silence in an instant.

That jewelry is obviously a set, yet Mo Jiangye only told me about the ring! The thought that she would have to dig deep into her pockets to buy back her items had her seething as her eyes turned red. She could not help wanting to slap herself to death for her stupidity.

“Two billion going once!”

“Two billion going twice!”

Just as the auctioneer was about to cry “Sold!”, she decided to get back the jewelry at any cost. “I want them back even if I have to declare bankruptcy! Two-point-one billion!”
