“We must always be wary of others. Eldest Brother says that these people might not be reliable. We should be more careful,” Qiao Mei said warily.
“I’ll remember that. Quick, tell me about what happened during the daytime? Where did you get so much jewelry?” Xia He asked.
“Will you believe me if I say that I brought them here?” Qiao Mei said to Xia He with a grin.
Xia He did not believe what Qiao Mei said. She was the one who packed most of Qiao Mei’s luggage and they also had a weigh-in and security check before boarding the plane! There were so many items just now. It was impossible for the security personnel to have missed out on them!
“Alright, alright, I won’t tease you anymore.” Qiao Mei laughed and told Xia He about everything which happened that day. However, she said that she found it in the small garden outside instead of in the storeroom.
The amount of jewelry which Qiao Mei brought out today was only the tip of the iceberg. There were still countless gems, diamonds and gold in the box under her bed! It was definitely more than enough to pay for their expenses in Country M and to start a business here!
Xia He sat on the carpet and hugged the box containing the jewelry as she muttered to herself, “Oh my goodness… We’re rich… We become rich so suddenly… Pinch me. Is this for real? Why do I feel like this is just a dream?”
Qiao Mei pinched Xia He’s cheeks and said, “Do you feel the pain! This is all real! We don’t have to worry about money anymore!”
“Are you the reincarnation of the God of Fortune? Why is there an endless stream of money wherever you go?” Xia He asked.
“Nonsense! I just happened to be lucky,” Qiao Mei said helplessly.
Xia He hurriedly closed the box and said cautiously, “If you leave the box in the room, will it be discovered when the helpers come to clean the room? What if they have any crooked ideas!”
“No, we won’t be able to keep all this money. I plan to equip you and the two brothers with a gun each and also buy a lot of bullets. Tomorrow, I’ll ask Luo Yu to go and buy two cars. I’ll ask him to make sure they are bulletproof so that we can feel more at ease when we go out,” Qiao Mei said.
“Two cars? Have you forgotten what Alice said? Aren’t we only allowed to buy one?” Xia He said.
Qiao Mei did not know what to say for a moment. Back in the capital, Xia He was quite smart. Why did she become so dim after coming to Country M? Could it be that the real Xia He had been swapped out on the plane?
“It’s true that one person can’t buy two cars, but can’t you and I just buy one each?” Qiao Mei said as she looked at Xia He, a little lost for words.upd@te by- .com.
Xia He scratched her head in embarrassment and said, “l… I forgot…”
Qiao Mei would drive one of the two cars to go to school and leave the other car to Xia He and Luo Yu. The two of them could take turns to drive when they went out.
Qiao Mei did not intend to get a new house for the time being. Since there were treasures under this house, there might be other family heirlooms hidden underground! It would not be a bad idea to search slowly when she had time. If she found any more top-quality gems, she would strike it rich again.
After doing a quick count on the things that she needed to buy, she estimated that it would cost about 300,000 dollars in total. She planned to keep the remaining 400,000 dollars as capital to open a shop!
The next morning, Qiao Mei could not do whatever she had planned. A group of uninvited guests had come to the house. These people were not aggressive and just stood politely outside the courtyard while they waited for Qiao Mei and the others to notice their presence. The neighbors who passed by all ran away to hide in fear. It was not that these people were too fierce, but it was the emblem they wore which scared off the neighbors.
“There’s a group of people outside. Luo Hui and I have drawn the curtains so that they can’t look into our house. What should we do now?” Luo Yu said nervously.
“Let me see who they are.” Qiao Mei walked to the window cautiously. Through the gap in the curtains, she could clearly see that one of the people standing outside was the man she and Xia He had saved that day. She did not expect him to be able to find her here.
“Why do you look so pale? Who are those people outside?” Xia He asked immediately.
“It’s the man we saved and he has brought other people with him,” Qiao Mei said.
“l haven’t settled the score with him yet! He has actually come looking for us first! I’ll go out and teach him a lesson now!” Xia He said agitatedly..
