Chapter 1278 - 1278 Frightening But Without Danger
1278 Frightening But Without Danger
“That’s illegal, old master Chu.” Jiang Yu said.
“So what?” Old master Chu laughed disdainfully. “Who do you think is in charge of Qingcheng now?”
As soon as these words were spoken, the air instantly fell silent.
After a long time, Jiang Yu said with a sobbing tone, “I’ll say anything, but please let us go.”
Old master Chu probably did not expect the person in front of him to cry. Chu Jie was also a little surprised. She could not help but say in a strange tone, “We didn’t do anything. Why are you crying?”
Jiang Yu immediately began her vivid narration. Excuses like ” a big fire burned all our savings, “we came here to do business but were cheated of our money, ” ” we came to the banquet because we haven’t eaten for a few days, ” and so on were just the tip of the iceberg.”
Mo Long didn’t know how others would feel after hearing this story, but he really wanted to laugh.
This was the first time he realized that Jiang Yu’s ability to make up stories was so strong.
At the end of her sentence, Jiang Yu’s bean-sized tears fell uncontrollably.
Chu Jie was completely touched.
“Why are you guys in such a miserable state?” Chu Jie cried as she asked, “then, doesn’t that mean that both of you don’t have money to go home?”
“Yup,” Jiang Yu nodded while crying, looking really sad.
“Grandpa, let them go. Don’t make things difficult for them.” Chu Jie pleaded on their behalf. “Look at how miserable they are. If we still make things difficult for them, isn’t that too much? And they haven’t given up on life even now. They’re really worthy of respect.”
Old master Chu was also a little shaken.
Because Jiang Yu’s acting was so real, he was also brought into the mood for a while. He felt that the people in front of him were just an ordinary couple who had suffered.
With Chu Jie pleading for them, old master Chu did not plan to make things difficult for them. As long as they were willing to reveal their true identities, he would let them go immediately.
However, the fake Mo Long said, “there’s no place in Qingcheng that can do big business recently. Why did you come here? Compared to Qingcheng, the antique market in yangcheng had been doing quite well recently. If you’re willing to invest there, not only will you not be scammed, but you’ll also make a lot of money.”
As soon as he said this, old master Chu’s rationality came back.
So he said, don’t think about getting away with it.
Seeing this, Jiang Yu couldn’t help but sigh and say, “”Alright, I’ll be honest with you about our true identities. Actually, my husband and I are the owners of an antique shop. Compared to the ordinary antiques in Sun City, we prefer to go to other places to look for different antiques. Who knew that we would encounter such a disaster?”
“Is that so?” The fake Mo Long looked at Jiang Yu meaningfully and said, “Since you’re the owner of an antique store, you should have the registration information for your store, right? Please don’t lie to us just by telling us a random shop or making up an identity.”
“Then go ahead and check,” Jiang Yu said indifferently. Whether it was true or not, they would know once they checked. Our shop is called ‘Ice Crystal’, you can just check.”
“Alright,” he said. Seeing how confident Jiang Yu was, the fake Mo Long was a little shaken. However, he still took out his phone and searched for the antique shop, Ice Crystal.
However, to his surprise, there was no information about “ice crystals” on the internet.
The fake Mo Long raised his eyebrows and showed the contents of the phone screen to Jiang Yu. He said proudly, “See that? We don’t have any information about your store. Doesn’t that prove that you’re lying to us?”
Jiang Yu looked at the blank phone screen in front of her and was shocked.
How was that possible? Didn’t Zhang Chuan enter the information?
Behind Jiang Yu, Mo Long’s face was dark, and his hands were clenched tightly behind his back.
He had already made up his mind. Even if he and Jiang Yu had to be trapped here today, he would still take Jiang Yu and leave this place.
Jiang Yu’s forehead was already covered in cold sweat, but she still tried to click on the refresh button on her phone. Soon, information about ” ice crystals ” popped up.
“Phew … Look, isn’t there one?” Jiang Yu heaved a sigh of relief, but her heart was still beating fast.
The fake Mo Long looked at the information in shock and said in confusion, “But I didn’t see it just now! Why did it appear the moment you touched the phone?”
“That’s because your phone’s signal is bad, so it didn’t load.” Jiang Yu found an excuse. “If you refresh it, it will come out?”
