The price of the jewelry was agreed upon in advance on WeChat.

The meeting was just Shi Xi delivering the things to Sister Meng. After Sister Meng inspected the goods, she transferred the money to her account.

"Oh my, this headgear is even better looking than in the photo!"

Sister Meng couldn't let go of the head ornaments. She picked up two pairs of pearl hairpins and compared them on her head.

It’s such a pity that she is not getting married, so she can’t wear such a beautiful bridal headpiece.

"Xixi, do you know what I like most about your antiques?"

Sister Meng took Shi Xi's hand and smiled with a wealthy look on her face.

Shi Xi shook her head.

She knew nothing about antiques, so naturally she had no idea what Sister Meng liked.

Seeing her shaking her head, Sister Meng didn't keep her in suspense anymore.

"I like these things of yours the most. They are fresh!"

She raised her eyebrows and explained:

"Judging from the age of the craftsmanship, the things you have here are indeed antiques!"

"But, how many antiques in this world can be preserved as intact and as good as you?"

Shi Xi could not be denied.

It is true that her antiques are new. Last night, Gu Ren went to buy them for her overnight, and this morning, Gu Ren delivered them to her early in the morning!

Sister Meng bought about ten antiques this time, but they were not as expensive as last time.

Except for the set of gilded and kingfisher-inlaid headpiece, none of the other items cost over 100 million yuan.

Excluding the transfer fee, Shi Xi made a net profit of 507 million this time.

While drinking tea and chatting with Sister Meng, Sister Meng was always laughing at her phone, as if she was chatting with someone.

"Sister Meng, we were just talking about that beauty instrument!"

Yan Ran was a little unhappy. Sister Meng was too inattentive!

"what?"

"Excuse me, what beauty device?"

Sister Meng hadn't reacted yet and asked in a dazed tone.

"Sister, aren't the two of us sisters enough to hold your heart?"

"You're not forgetting to keep looking at your phone while you're chatting with us?"

Yan Ran, possessed by a spirit of drama, wiped away tears that didn't exist at all and pretended to be filled with deep hatred and resentment.

Shi Xi pushed Yan Ran's arm and asked her to observe Sister Meng carefully.

Yan Ran didn't quite understand.

Shi Xi whispered in her ear:

"If I'm not mistaken, Sister Meng should be in love!"

Although Shi Xi had never been in a relationship, she had read so many melodramatic romance novels over the years that she could guess something from Sister Meng's expression.

Sister Meng is a bit old, already in her forties, and divorced with a child.

However, under the hard condition of having money, all shortcomings can become plus points.

Yan Ran asked Sister Meng with a wicked smile:

"Looks like we'll have a new brother-in-law soon!"

When Sister Meng heard this, she blinked shyly.

"Hey, Xiao Linlin and I haven't even started dating yet!"

"His wife disappeared two months ago. We have to wait at least two years until she can't be found. Only then can the marriage certificate be automatically cancelled according to the law."

"We can only be considered an underground relationship!"

Sister Meng really didn't treat Yan Ran and Shi Xi as outsiders, and directly told them about her situation with her online love partner.

Yan Ran listened and felt sorry for Sister Meng.

"It's okay, man, it's just for fun; feelings should never be taken seriously!"

Yan Ran has a lot to say on this point.

When she was in school, she changed boyfriends more frequently than she changed her bags.

Now that I have started my own business, I have become more restrained.

However, Shi Xi was a little confused after hearing what Sister Meng said just now.

Her boyfriend's wife also disappeared two months ago?!

It was about the same date as my mother's disappearance.

Shi Xi didn’t quite understand why there were so many disappearances recently?

Could it be that he was trafficked?

But unless the person has already gone abroad, it would be impossible to find him with the power of the Yan family!

It seems that she still has to find a way to go abroad to find her mother's whereabouts.

"Xixi, what are you thinking about?"

Yan Ran saw that Shi Xi looked unhappy and asked with concern.

"Nothing, I just thought about my mom being missing."

Shi Xi said bluntly.

In order to prevent her best friend from worrying about her, she forced a smile towards Yan Ran.

Yan Ran rubbed the back of her hand to comfort her.

Seeing this, Sister Meng, who was holding her phone and grinning foolishly, asked about Shi Xi's experience with curiosity and concern.

Yan Ran briefly explained it to her.

As a businesswoman, Sister Meng quickly discovered something was wrong.

Many of the things her online boyfriend told her matched what happened to Shi Xi.

For example, Shi Xi's father's name also contains the character "Lin".

For example, Xiao Linlin on WeChat said that he took over his ex-wife's company, while Shi Guolin in reality used all means to seize Zhongli Group.

Or perhaps, the missing mother that Shi Xi mentioned just now, and Xiao Linlin's missing wife...

All these things made Sister Meng feel the hairs on her neck stand on end.

Sister Meng is a person who has extremely high requirements for everything around her.

We can't just let it go like this!

She briefly outlined her suspicions to both of them.

Shi Xi also suspected that Xiao Linlin was Shi Guolin's nickname.

Shi Guolin has been short of money recently. Maybe he hooked up with the rich woman Sister Meng just for her money!

"Sister Meng, has he ever asked you for money?"

"Whether implicitly or directly?"

Sister Meng suddenly realized something was wrong and nodded rapidly:

"Xixi, you really guessed it right. He used the excuse of getting me to invest and asked me to give him 1 billion."

"I didn't have that much money at the time and was cautious, so I didn't agree."

Shi Xi said hurriedly:

"I want his photo!"

Sister Meng, who wanted to find out Xiao Linlin's true identity, agreed and sent the other party a request to see a real photo of her.

Soon, the other party replied:

"Don't worry, honey. I heard you came to our city for business."

"How about...we meet?"

"By the way, let's talk about that investment I mentioned to you last time!"

The other party seemed to be still harboring evil intentions.

I have to drag Sister Meng to invest.

Sister Meng showed the chat history directly to Shi Xi and Yan Ran.

"How to do?"

"Will you agree to him?"

she asked nervously.

Shi Xi was also very nervous. Shi Xue had told her before that Shi Guolin was short of exactly 1 billion yuan.

Her sixth sense kept telling her:

This little Linlin is his biological father Shi Guolin!

"Promise him!"

"I'll pay for the billion. I want to see if he's really investing or just running an online dating scam!"

If the other party is really Shi Guolin, then he undoubtedly wants to defraud Sister Meng's money to fill the 2 billion yuan hole in Zhongli Group.

He used Shi Xue's betrothal gift to exchange for 1 billion, and then cheated another 1 billion from Sister Meng.

Shi Guolin, you are really good at calculating!

Shi Xi's hands gradually clenched into fists, and they made a crackling sound from biting them.

It had been two months since I was kicked out of the house.

She never took revenge on the Shi family, firstly because she was too busy with her own affairs; secondly, she also wanted to see Shi Guolin and even the entire Shi family destroy themselves because of the 2 billion yuan in debt.

But now, Shi Guolin's tentacles have reached her big client, Sister Meng, and she can no longer sit idly by and turn a deaf ear!

"Xixi, what are you talking about! I have the money, so how can I let a little girl like you pay for it?"

"Don't worry, I'll call my lawyer right now. If he's really trying to scam me, he'll definitely go to jail!"

Sister Meng can become a rich woman because she is definitely smarter than Shi Xi.

Shi Xi knew that she couldn't let herself suffer any loss no matter what, so she felt relieved.

"Have you arranged a date to meet?"

"Do you need us to be there too?"

In the next few days, Ms. Gu, the original owner of the villa, will return to China to sign the contract for her, and Shi Xi is afraid that she will not always be available.

Sister Meng saw her embarrassment and said with a smile:

"Don't worry, I can handle this little thing myself."

"But...if that man is really your father..."

Sister Meng didn't understand that there was a discord between father and daughter, and was afraid that Shi Xi would be sad if she sent Shi Guolin to the police station.

"Sister, don't worry about me."

"Resisting fraud is everyone's responsibility. I will sacrifice my own family for the sake of justice!"

Shi Xi spoke with passion.

Sister Meng was also ready to attack.

If they can really catch this scum this time, they will be ridding the people of a threat.
