Chapter 311 - 311 The Jade Stones
311 The Jade Stones
Guan Lei picked up a stone and said, “These are all jade stones. My uncle plays with stones, so these are all good materials that have been tested. If you don’t believe me, you can check on the internet. He’s Li Zhe from the Li Industries in Hai City. He owned the largest stone factory in China. Therefore, three million is just a small amount of money for him. You don’t have to go through so much trouble to find out the source of the money.”
Guan Lei’s words made everyone gasp. Some people had already taken out their phones to check on Li Zhe.
Shen Xi was also shocked. She didn’t expect Li Zhe, who was driving the tractor, to be so rich.
Guan Lei coughed lightly, “Of course, my uncle’s family is not my family. My family is indeed a little poor now, so my uncle lent me these to woo Shen Xi.”
Guan Lei peeked at Shen Xi’s expression and saw that she was only a little surprised but not angry. Only then did Guan Lei heave a sigh of relief.
Liu Cheng looked at Li Zhe’s photo and asked, “Li Zhe’s photo on the internet doesn’t look like your uncle.”
Guan Lei glanced at Liu Cheng, then picked up his phone and called Li Zhe.
When Li Zhe saw that Guan Lei was video-calling him, he was in disbelief. When the call went through and he saw the dense crowd, he seemed to understand.
“Uncle, someone said you don’t look like Li Zhe. Do you want to prove it?” In front of so many people, Guan Lei still obediently called Li Zhe uncle.
Li Zhe looked at Guan Lei’s reluctant face and was instantly overjoyed. He immediately responded and didn’t forget to take advantage of him by saying, “My dear nephew, don’t worry. Your uncle will always be with you.”
Li Zhe immediately straightened his body. “It’s easy to prove myself. I’ll get the Li consortium’s official account to post a picture of my new appearance later. Wait a minute, it’s just a few minutes. I’ll take a selfie with my other phone first.”
In less than a minute, Li Industries’ official account posted a photo out of the blue. The photo was of Li Zhe, who was currently on the other end of the screen.
It was the same background, the same brown casual home clothes, the same watch, and even the slightly raised hair on Li Zhe’s head was the same.
Zhao Yuan was instantly frightened and exclaimed, “Oh my god! It’s Li Zhe! Guan Lei, are you the nephew of Li Zhe from Li Industries?”
The people around them were all in disbelief. Their eyes were glued to Guan Lei as if they were trying to find negative evidence.
Liu Cheng tugged at the corner of her shirt. She had never thought that Guan Lei would have such a background.
Li Zhe was a class that even the Xiang family couldn’t hope to reach. If she had known that Guan Lei had such a relationship, why would she still suck up to Jiang Xue? Why didn’t she just chase after Guan Lei?
Liu Cheng was so annoyed that she wished she could go back to the day when Guan Lei had just transferred to the school. She would use all her strength to make Guan Lei fall in love with her, and then she could use her relationship with Li Zhe to achieve a breakthrough.
But when Liu Cheng thought about Guan Lei had just said that his uncle’s family was not his family and that Guan Lei’s family was not rich, she felt a little better.
Shen Xi was calm. She had already guessed that Guan Lei’s identity was not ordinary. However, she felt that Guan Lei was still hiding something. Otherwise, why would he emphasize that Li Zhe’s family was not his family? He even specifically said that his family was poor.
Normally, if a person’s family was poor, they wouldn’t keep emphasizing it.
Moreover, would a person who knew about 20 million Yuan jade stone come from a poor family? If he gambled on stones, he might just reverse the fortune.
In any case, perhaps it was a human’s sixth sense, but Shen Xi felt that Guan Lei wasn’t as simple as he seemed.
On the other end of the screen, Li Zhe still wanted to praise himself. But Guan Lei hung up the phone before he could say anything.
Li Zhe cursed under his breath. Guan Lei had kicked down the ladder. Then, he went next door to complain to Meng Yu.
Guan Lei ignored the people around who were talking about him and said to the police, “Have I proved that my uncle has the ability now?”
The police officers looked at each other and then left politely.
Sun Yi and a few others outside the door instantly rushed in. Fortunately, they had secretly bribed the dormitory manager to come in. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have seen such an exciting thing.
“Brother Lei, is your uncle Li Zhe? Li Zhe from Li Indutries?” Sun Yi grabbed Guan Lei’s arm and exclaimed.
