Kicked out of a wealthy family? I became a rich and beautiful woman thanks to the system.

Song Zhiqian complained from the side.

"Yeah, don't even mention it. I was supposed to be back two weeks ago, but I was delayed there for so long."

Wen Yao nodded frantically

"It was quite fun when I first arrived there, but after a while it became just so-so."

Seeing his sister standing alive and well in front of him, Lu Zhengran finally felt relieved, but he wasn't actually that happy.

Why aren't you answering the phone?

Upon hearing this question, Wen Yao thought of being arrested by Budi, and she felt she could talk about it for a year.

"Don't even mention it. Mei Qing, that vicious woman, actually sent soldiers from the Star Moon Society to arrest me and even tried to kill me."

And guess what? That brigade commander actually wanted me to be his sixth wife! I was furious! He doesn't even know his own worth—a toad trying to eat swan meat!

Wen Yao complained for a while, and the Lu family members all looked at her, listening to everything she had experienced.

"Fortunately, I managed to escape using the smoke bombs I had prepared beforehand. However, Xie Geng and his men took me back to Xie's mansion and asked me to provide them with smoke bombs. Only after I gave them the smoke bombs did they let us leave."

In just a few words, Wen Yao described her month-long life in Lingyu.

Lu Shan's heartbroken eyes held a hint of admiration.

"As expected of my daughter, she managed to escape from that kind of environment."

Chen Shuhua looked at Wen Yao with concern.

“Yaoyao, next time you travel this far, you should tell us first. Your father has connections all over the world. A wise man doesn’t stand under a dangerous wall. We’ll feel more at ease knowing someone is protecting you.”

"This time the situation is a bit special, so I probably won't go to Lingyu again in the future."

Although Wen Yao already knew that the Lu family had been looking for her, she did not understand the feelings they had when they couldn't find her.

“Yaoyao, you should have told me. I’ve called so many times, but no one answered. Do you know that Dad and I almost flew to Lingyu to find you?”

Wen Yao initially received two calls from Lu Zhengran, but she not only didn't intend to answer them, she also set them to "Do Not Disturb".

Therefore, she was unaware of the hundreds of phone calls that followed from Lu Zheng.

Wen Yao was stunned.

"so serious?"

Lu Shan said anxiously

"Of course, you are our daughter, the child I finally found. How could I not be worried when you went missing? You bringing the police today is a favor to Meiqing. I was originally planning to send her to Africa to do hard labor."

Wen Yao's eyes widened. Sending them to Africa? It seems she was too hasty.

"When did you start to get anxious?"

Wen Yao suddenly became inexplicably curious about this question.

Lu Zhengran said

"After I couldn't reach you the first time, I called you again twelve hours later, but still no one answered. So I went to your house to look for you, but your housekeeper said you went to Lingyu. When I heard that place name, I panicked a little."

Chen Shuhua added

“Yeah, why go to Lingyu? Let’s not even mention that they’re still fighting a civil war there. Even if there wasn’t a civil war, there’s nothing special about that place. The rich people there are either immigrants from us or Danli people. We might as well go to the suburbs.”

Wen Yao smiled and took out a yellow jade bracelet from her bag.

“I’m in charge of the mines. I recently made a new friend, Xie Ling, Chairman Xie’s daughter. I’ve decided to buy stones from her and then have them made into handicrafts in China to sell. Apart from the mines, I’ll handle everything else.”

Then Wen Yao handed the yellow jade bracelet in her hand to Chen Shuhua.

"I bought this bracelet from Xie Ling. Isn't it nice? It's a gift for you."

When Chen Shuhua saw the gift Wen Yao gave him, he was both surprised and delighted, and his eyes welled up with tears.

"This...this bracelet is so valuable, I'm almost embarrassed."

Chen Shuhua had seen all sorts of good things, but this time, when he received Wen Yao's bracelet, he felt a sense of unworthiness.

"Mom has never given you any nice gifts, and you actually brought me back a bracelet from all this way."

Chen Shuhua smiled broadly, but tears were already streaming down her face.

When Wen Yao saw this, she actually felt a little embarrassed.

Was the bracelet she gave me really that precious?

Lu Shan took the bracelet from Chen Shuhua and helped her put it on.

"Alright, child, you're so thoughtful to bring you a gift from so far away. Don't cry, I don't have any."

The truth is often spoken in a joking manner. Although Lu Shan laughed on the surface, he was actually a little jealous inside. Last time Wen Yao invited Lu Zhengran to visit the airship, and this time she brought gifts for Chen Shuhua. When will it be his turn?

"Yaoyao, you said you want to start a jade business in China? Dad fully supports you, and I've decided to invest in it..."

Before Lu Shan could finish speaking, Wen Yao refused.

"No, no, no, I have my own money and don't need to invest."

Lu Shan offered to pay money for the first time, but was refused.

Wen Yao felt the atmosphere here was strange and wanted to escape for a moment.

"Well, we need to go choose a location now, so we'll be leaving first."

After saying that, he pulled Song Zhiqian and started walking towards the door.

Lu Shan watched Wen Yao's retreating figure, feeling quite uneasy.

“Yaoyao is so good. The children of my old friends all keep taking money from their parents, and no matter how much money they get, they don’t do anything worthwhile. My Yaoyao not only started her own business at the age of eighteen, but she also doesn’t have to worry me at all.”

At this moment, Wen Yao and Song Zhiqian had already gotten into a taxi.

It was Song Zhiqian's first time taking a taxi, and he looked around as soon as he got in.

He kept muttering to himself while watching.

"Wen Yao, your parents really love you. Your dad offered to give you money, but you refused."

Love?

Wen Yao was somewhat surprised

"Is this love?"

Song Zhiqian sat up straight.

"Isn't that enough love? Let me show you my sister."

Then he picked up the phone and called Song Zhen.

The call was just connected

"Song Zhiqian, you still remember to call your sister? You've been having a wild time lately!"

"Sis, I'm working, I'm not playing."

Then he explained again, but Song Zhen wouldn't listen, and the call was disconnected.

"Look! How much your parents love you."

Wen Yao had nothing to say.

This was the first time Wen Yao had felt this way, but she didn't expect her first reaction to be helplessness.

"Alright, let's not talk about that anymore. We need to get started on our jade business now."

Wen Yao and Song Zhiqian went to Swan Lake Golf Club and found Sheng Ming.

"Boss Sheng, we're going to start a jade business in China soon. I already talked to Xie Ling back in Lingyu. We can go to her mine to pick stones. But as you know, neither of us is very good at it, so it would be better if you went."

"Your salary is performance-based; the better the stones you cut, the higher your monthly salary will be. But I guarantee it will definitely be more than what you'd earn at the golf club."
