After the Chinese New Year, Su Zimu and those from big families were busy visiting relatives, with all sorts of activities, while Sui Yi took Yi, along with Gong Jiu, and the Ye family mother and son back to the Provincial City early to pay respects to the old lady, but Sui Yi didn’t plan to visit Ye Family Village.
The Ye family mother and son also knew about Sui Yi’s knot in his heart, so they did not insist.
Sui Yi and the others wandered around the Provincial City for a few days, t so old acquaintances, and also visited the Hua Family. Coincidentally, Yhan Qingwu and her daughter also returned to the Provincial City, so the group got together again.
Of course, compared to last year, there’s an extra person among them—Yi.
But it seed like nothing was different, as if they were destined to be friends.
After returning to the Provincial City, Sui Yi was not entirely at leisure. From sowhere, many businessn or people from various fields ca to visit, and it wasn’t easy to keep them out, so Sui Yi t with all of them, although she declined all kinds of proposals and invitations from them.
But this wasn’t a good way to continue, so after just two or three days, she planned to return to the Capital City, at least it’s not easy for people to enter her residence there.
The day she was leaving, soone ca to visit.
Soone who couldn’t be easily ignored.
Xiao Xianting.
Gong Jiu and the others didn’t seem to mind Xiao Xianting’s visit, but the man had an impeccable deanor and posture, unlike the previous businessn who couldn’t take their eyes off Sui Yi when they saw her...
His gaze didn’t shift.
He was fixated on Sui Yi.
"Hey, Yi, could you use a dagger to stab this guy’s eyeballs?" Gong Jiu nudged Yi with his elbow.
Yi looked indifferent, "No."
"Ah~"
"Let’s talk about it after he leaves."
How could they do that in front of Sui Yi?
They couldn’t.
Wait until this man leaves.
Gong Jiu shivered at that thought.
Actually, he was just joking, but looking at Yi like this... it seed like he might take it seriously!
Fortunately, Xiao Xianting had a good deanor, and they had known each other for a long ti, he had even helped them in the past.
It shouldn’t co to that.
So the startled Gong Jiu stealthily snuck outside to keep watch.
Yes, he must stop Yi before he acts.
Xiao Xianting didn’t know about Gong Jiu’s antics. He thodically greeted Sui Yi for the New Year and casually ntioned that so good artifacts had surfaced in certain parts of the Provincial City, which successfully caught Sui Yi’s attention, and then they started a normal conversation.
As they talked, he said, "The business at Sui Tang Square’s pawnshop has been excellent these past few months."
That simple sentence seed to get to the main point.
Sui Yi fixed her gaze on him.
Xiao Xianting didn’t wait for Sui Yi to inquire and slowly said, "Perhaps because your identity has been exposed in these few months, your exposure rate is high, and many people are rushing to the pawnshop, so there’s no shortage of goods. You should be aware of this yourself."
"Yes, Uncle Fu ca by yesterday."
Sui Yi had also looked over the list of pawned items and indeed business was booming.
However, there always seed to be sothing unfinished in this person’s words.
"I had a person on my side who I had contact with before, four months ago. At that ti, Sui Tang Square’s pawnshop hadn’t yet reached its current scale and reputation, and he didn’t dare approach easily. Sohow, he found his way to mine."
At that ti, Xiao Xianting’s side already had large-scale jewelry stores, and they were also beginning to explore antiques. Coupled with the reputable na of the Xiao family behind them, the other party chose him.
"But I’m only good at speculation, not like you with a high appreciation ability for antiques. I looked several tis but couldn’t see through the reality, and because of your uncertain whereabouts in these months, I never had the opportunity to bring him to see you."
This explanation made Sui Yi raise an eyebrow.
"What kind of object is it?"
"A stone."
"Stone?"
Xiao Xianting nodded, "I couldn’t take a picture."
"He didn’t want you to?"
"No, it’s just that when I took pictures... it always turned out like this."
He pulled out images on his phone, showing dozens in a row that were blank white, like a TV screen with interference snow.
Sui Yi raised an eyebrow, electromagnetic interference?
Or was it artificially made?
Sui Yi trusted Xiao Xianting, so she didn’t suspect the latter possibility, just casually sliding her finger through the phone, looking through a few at a ti...
Suddenly, her finger slipped, accidentally opening a folder hidden in a corner.
A few pictures popped up.
All of the sa person.
Sui Yi was montarily stunned, then quickly exited the folder, returning to the previous snowy images, Xiao Xianting didn’t notice Sui Yi’s strange behavior, he just said in a deep voice, "That stone is peculiar, it looks like a slab, with nothing on it, I asked about the origin of this person, he said he’s from Yunnan, but wouldn’t say more... I had soone check his travel traces, found his movents were chaotic, in half a year he visited more than ten provincial cities, but tracing back to the earliest it was Huayin City in Shaanxi Province, he ca out of there, then mingled into our Provincial City... acting secretively, he wants to find a good buyer for the slab he has."
