He is paranoid and warm

Xiao Yu attends many social events outside, but he seldom accepts invitations to dinner and always solves problems online.

But the man was already sitting here, and in front of several bosses, he took the wine glass.

After clinking glasses, almost everyone drank it all in one gulp, except Xiao Yu, who took a small sip.

“The quantity is not enough,” he said.

The other bosses smiled and said, "I've heard that Professor Xiao is pragmatic and efficient. People like him don't like cigarettes or alcohol."

That means don't force it.

Chen Xiaona probably wanted to give some advice, but several bosses just laughed it off, and her father Chen Xingfu secretly shook his head slightly at her.

She opened her mouth, then swallowed her words and said nothing.

The place for the celebration dinner was set at Xingfu Restaurant. It’s not a big place, but it has great privacy and is the first choice for many bigwigs and people in the entertainment industry.

Xiao Yu had actually been to this place before, but he was not familiar with it as it was quite far from where he lived.

Because it was not close, he still did not plan to drink.

This time Chen Xiaona was prepared and simply poured tea for Xiao Yu, "Professor Xiao doesn't like to drink, so how about tea instead of wine?"

Xiao Yu nodded, "Thank you."

Chen Xiaona had taken etiquette classes, so her every move, every frown and smile seemed very proper, yet she exuded an alluring aura.

She personally poured tea for Xiao Yu and brought it to him, "Scented tea will not affect sleep, but will promote it. Professor Xiao, would you like to try it?"

Xiao Yu could only sip it.

Polite review: "It's OK, but a little sweet."

"So you don't like sweet things?" Chen Xiaona said apologetically.

Xiao Yu didn't dislike the sweet taste, but looked at what it was.

Chen Xiaona still changed the cup for him, which was less sweet.

She asked the waiter to take away the replaced cup.

It's just a cup, just put it where it is, so Xiao Yu couldn't help but take a few more glances at it.

It turns out that intuition sometimes has a reason.

After the meal, several bosses wanted to see Xiao Yu off first, and Chen Xiaona arranged a car for Xiao Yu to leave the hotel.

Not long after getting in the car, he felt something strange in his body.

The driver was a middle-aged man. Xiao Yu looked up and said, "Please take us to Yulin Bay."

Hearing him speak, the driver smiled apologetically and said, "Sorry, Professor Xiao, the car seems to be out of gas."

Xiao Yu glanced at the dashboard.

It's really out of oil.

The driver had to drop him off and said he would call a car for him, but Xiao Yu refused.

He called the number of his "assistant" Sheng Shushu again.

Sheng Shushu saw his phone number and knew why he called her, but she gritted her teeth and hung up.

At that time, she and Lu Banxia were about to get home.

Knowing that Xiao Yu couldn't go back tonight and might come to settle accounts with her tomorrow, Sheng Shushu didn't plan to go back and went to Lu Banxia's house to stay for one night.

Later, Xiao Yu called several more times.

After she ignored all the calls, she received a message from Xiao Yu:

【You gave my number to someone else? 】

Sheng Shushu knew he would ask this. After she gave Chen Xiaona the contact information, she smiled guiltily at Xiao Yu.

He must have discovered it.

She didn't reply either. Anyway, she had already given it, and besides, Chen Xiaona might have taken some action at this moment.

Sheng Shushu turned off his phone and took a deep breath.

I couldn't help but vaguely recall the wild look of Xiao Yu's gentle face. Thinking that he might behave like that with other women, I felt a little uncomfortable.

But if this can persuade him to stop pestering her, it's worth it.

So I forced myself not to think too much.

When they arrived at Lu Banxia's house, Sheng Shushu even changed into Lu Banxia's pajamas.

Lu Banxia took the half jade ruyi that she bought tonight and looked at it curiously.

Sheng Shushu leaned over and took a look.

She didn't care much at first, but the next second, she frowned slightly, "Wait a minute, let me take a look."

As she spoke, she pulled out a clean corner of her clothes, used it to pad her palm, and let Lu Banxia place the jade ruyi on her palm.

Through her thin silk pajamas, Sheng Shushu lifted up Yu Ruyi and looked at it against the light for a while.

No special searchlight is needed.

Fake jade ruyi.

Sheng Shushu frowned, "Do you remember where the auction house got the money for this jade ruyi?"

I don’t know if it’s written in the auction catalogue.

"I'll go ask my dad."

Since the photos had been taken, Mr. Lu did ask a few more questions.

This jade ruyi came from Chen Xiaona and was sold through Mr. Sun’s auction house.

Sheng Shushu's brows furrowed even more. Jiashang's own auction would be held next month, so why did they put it up for sale here with Mr. Sun? It turned out to be a fake?

Is this to drag Mr. Sun into this?

By the next month, when she sells the real one at her own auction house, everyone will know that the one sold by Mr. Sun is a fake.

It was easy to bring down a competitor with just 990,000 yuan.

Sheng Shushu smiled.

It is true that there is no business without fraud, and the methods are covert and despicable.

But secretly speaking, she doesn't need to care about this kind of thing, she is not a judge, and similar things happen countless times a day in the business world.

But it just so happened that this jade ruyi was in the Lu family, and she asked Lu Banxia to take the photo of it.

"Let's go." Sheng Shushu put away her things and pulled Lu Banxia along.

Lu Banxia was confused, "Where are you going again?"

“……” Sheng Shushu paused.

Then he changed his words, "I feel there is something wrong with this jade ruyi, let me ask the original owner."

Her approach was simple. She would find Chen Xiaona and take the real thing away before anyone else discovered the matter.

If Chen Xiaona was smart, she would just give it to her and pretend that this never happened.

Otherwise, if she finds out, and once she exposes it, it won’t be so easy to resolve.

"So late at night?" Lu Banxia said she was very tired. "How about we go early tomorrow morning?"

If you have too many dreams at night, the flowers will be cold by tomorrow morning.

Sheng Shushu looked at her and said, "Or, if you feel comfortable, I can take it over and ask for you, and then I'll send it to you tomorrow."

"Don't worry!" Lu Banxia spread his hands. What was there to worry about?

The main reason is that she is really tired today.

Sheng Shushu took the jade ruyi and left the Lu family. The car belonged to Lu Banxia, ​​so she drove away directly.

On the way, Sheng Shushu called Mr. Sun and asked where Chen Xiaona was.

Mr. Sun said he was going home.

Sheng Shushu called Chen Xiaona, but there was no answer.

She called Xiao Yu again, but he didn't answer.

The car stopped at the traffic light. Sheng Shushu's brows were furrowed when Xiao Yu called back.

"Where are you?" she asked first.

Xiao Yu's voice was noticeably hoarse, and the slight gasps in between when he announced the name of the hotel made it hard for people not to think too much.

Sheng Shushu tightened his knuckles around the phone and asked hesitantly, "You...you guys, have already done it?"

If that's the case, then she doesn't need to go.
