Chapter 143: This Thing Is More Expensive Than Gold!

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Lu Huai felt strange too when he thought about the unknown number that had just called him.

He tapped on his phone to find the number and asked someone to find out who it belonged to.

Soon, he found out that the unknown number belonged to the security office of the club.

Lu Huai went to the security office and questioned the security guard on duty. The security guard looked at Lu Huai in fear and trepidation as he listened to Lu Huai interrogate him about Rong Chan’er’s whereabouts.

The security guard explained, “Rong Chan’er always acts sneakily when she comes to the club. I was suspicious but since she’s with Mr. Lu, I didn’t dare to provoke her.”

“However, 1 felt that she was up to no good, so I put a cheap GPS device on her.”

“When I heard that Mr. Lu was looking for Rong Chan’er, I called you, actually, with the hope for some…”

The security guard rubbed his fingers. It was obvious that he hoped to get some money.

So, the security guard called him for money.

Lu Huai sneered in disdain, “You’re quite sneaky too to keep an eye on Rong Chan’er.”

The security guard lowered his head and said fawningly, “1 get a fixed minimal salary for being a security guard. 1 have no choice but to find other means to earn extra money so 1 could get a wife.”

“I can only say that I learned this from the other guards here. Many security guards here make money from doing this kind of thing.”

“Besides, Rong Chan’er’s reputation isn’t very good. 1 followed her to extort a money from her initially.”

His explanation was sound. He even said that he wasn’t the first person who did such a thing, but Lu Huai was still doubtful.

“Is that really all?”

“Mr. Lu, I’m just a small potato. I want to earn some money, but 1 wouldn’t dare to harm anyone.”

The security guard kept his head down to hide the sarcasm in his eyes.

Lu Huai also felt that this security guard was a nobody. He spoke with his head lowered and looked very scared. He wouldn’t have the ambition or the smarts to set him up.

He wrote a check for 100,000 yuan, threw it to the security guard, and turned to leave.

The security guard held the check, his eyes full of greed. He reached out to stop Lu Huai and said shamelessly, “Mr. Lu, although 1 don’t know what Rong Chan’er did, I helped you capture her. Isn’t 100,000 yuan too little?”

Lu Huai was annoyed. “How much do you want then?”

The security guard raised five fingers. “500,000 yuan. Mr. Lu, you’re a rich man. I’m just a small security guard. Please give me a larger reward.”

His eyes were filled with greed. He didn’t look like someone with the gall to frame someone.

Lu Huai held back his anger and wrote another check for 400,000 yuan. He took it as hush money and asked the security guard not to tell anyone about this.

The security guard was so grateful that he almost knelt. Lu Huai felt disgusted and left with his men.

When the security guard saw Lu Huai walk away, the fawning smile on his face disappeared. He stared at the checks with disdain.

It was only 500,000 yuan. He didn’t even care about it.

He took out his phone and made a call to report the situation.

“Rong Chan’er has been captured by Lu Huai. Lu Huai came to interrogate me but I’ve already brushed it off. However, he’s given me two checks totally 500,000 yuan. Will they be confiscated?”

The other party replied, “You got the money yourself. Keep it. Keep an eye on the situation. Be careful when you do things. Don’t let Lu Huai suspect that someone else is behind this.”

“Roger. This matter will end with Rong Chan’er.”

Meanwhile, in Jiang Jingchen’s villa, Song Zhou hung up the phone and turned to report to Jiang Jingchen.

He had asked his subordinate to act as a security guard, explain the mysterious phone call and eliminate Lu Huai’s suspicion. This was a cover to protect the mastermind, his young master.

At this moment, Jiang Jingchen was watching a dance video.

Instead of working, this king of a business empire was learning dance appreciation.

Song Zhou couldn’t bear to watch it anymore.

Jiang Jingchen looked up lazily at him and asked him to continue.

Song Zhou said, “Song Kai and Lu Linlin held a press conference to clear the name of the father and daughter of the Lu Family. They also announced their engagement. They even said that Lu Linlin was pregnant. They are spending money to suppress public opinion and they’ve asked people to investigate the matter.”

Jiang Jingchen took notes and wrote a paragraph. He said with a half-smile, “Song Kai, this move of yours will make it difficult for the Lu family to refuse. However, this attack on the Lu family is just for fun. Our target is the Song family.”

Song Zhou nodded that he understood. The Lu family show was over. It was time to watch the Song family show.

Song Hai must be angry that Song Kai was getting engaged to Lu Linlin and might retaliate.

He said, “Young Master, are we going to let the two Song brothers fight among themselves now?”

Jiang Jingchen waved his hand no. “Song Kai is a fox while Song Hai is a fool. There’s no competition at all. Song Kai will become a threat if he becomes the heir of the Song family, so we must nip him in the bud.”

“What are we going to do next?” Song Zhou asked.

Jiang Jingchen stared at the dance video and asked nonchalantly, “How much Song Enterprise shares have we acquired?”

“I managed to get 10% of the shares. 1 didn’t dare to get too much for fear of attracting Song family’s attention. The Song family is looking for a business partner. I’ve followed your instructions and got someone to front it.”

Jiang Jingchen nodded and then said, “Go and tell the people from Song Enterprise that Song Hai has to be the person in charge of the partnership. Also, they shouldn’t allow Song Kai to take part in anyway.”

Song Zhou was stunned for a moment before he got it and sighed in his heart.

No wonder his young master told him there was no need to keep an eye on Song Kai. It turned out that he had a separate plan for Song Kai.

No matter how good Song Kai was, as long as the old man, who only cared about profits, did not allow him to join Song Enterprise, he wouldn’t be able to take down the Rong Corporation. Everything he had done would be in vain.

Unless he wanted to kill Song Hai.

It turned out that the young master didn’t let the two brothers fight because he wanted Song Kai to teach Song Hai a lesson, but Song Hai was the old master’s favorite.

How scheming!

“Alright, I’ll get on it now.”

“Hey, wait, did you buy the workout clothes I asked you to get?” Jiang Jingchen asked.

Song Zhou slapped his forehead. “Sorry, I forgot. I’ll get someone to send the clothes over now.”

Jiang Jingchen’s face was cold, and his voice was cold and very unfriendly. “If it’s about my wife, do it immediately. Don’t drag it out.”

“Yes, sir.”

Song Zhou’s forehead was covered in cold sweat. He quickly made a call.

In school…

Tang Beibei and Ruan Qi skipped their elective classes to go to Fu Jin’s dance studio.

The two of them walked to the bus stop to catch a bus there.

A car suddenly stopped in front of them. The window rolled down and the man inside waved at them.

“Beibei, where are you going? I’ll give you a lift.”

Tang Beibei noticed that the other people at the bus stop were staring at her and Ruan Qi. She cleared her throat and said to Fu Jin, who was wearing glasses, “We are going to the dance studio, Fu Jin.”

“Get in the car, let’s go together.”

Since they were going to the same place, Tang Beibei and Ruan Qi didn’t stand on ceremony. After getting into the car, Fu Jin asked Tang Beibei, “Are your injuries healed?”

“Yes.”

Tang Beibei smiled and pointed at her face. The bruises were very faint, but if one looked carefully, they could still see it.

Fu Jin threw her a box of medicine. “This medicine can remove bruises. Try it.”

Tang Beibei unscrewed the tube of medicine and smelled the fragrance of plants.

“What medicine is this? Is it very expensive?”

Fu Jin lips curled into a smile as if he expected her question. “It’s not expensive. My family made this. I got it for free. If I buy it outside, it’ll only cost about ten yuan.”

“Thank you, I’ll accept it then.”

She squeezed out some medicine and applied it on her face. The cooling feeling was quite comfortable.

Ruan Qi was curious. She took the box and checked the name. She then went online to look it up. Her pupils dilated as she looked at Fu Jin in surprise.

This medicine cost about ten yuan?

How did he lie without even blinking?

It cost more than ten thousand yuan, and one couldn’t even buy it without connections!

Fu Jin noticed her gaze and asked gently with a smile, “Ruan Qi, are you looking at me like that because you have something to ask me?”

“No, no, 1 don’t.” Ruan Qi silently closed the search window and put down her phone. She counted in her heart as she watched Tang Beibei apply the medicine on her face.

That little bit was worth a few hundred yuan.

This thing was even more expensive than gold!

“Qiqi, if you have something to say, just say it.” Tang Beibei sensed her gaze and was puzzled.

“It’s nothing. 1 just wonder how your face is so fair and tender. Your skin is so delicate.”

Tang Beibei touched her face and explained with a smile, “My husband bought me a new set of skincare products at the hospital that cost a little more than 100 yuan. I’m quite comfortable using them. Maybe it suits my skin because I also feel that my skin has improved.”

“What kind of skincare products did you buy at a hospital?”
