Chapter 681: Auction
“That’s right. Zhong Nuannuan’s moves are simple and crude. If she had struck me on the throat when she pulled my leg today, I’d definitely have died today. Think about it, I, a trained soldier in the special forces, can’t even withstand a single blow from her. How can an ordinary person have such skills? If she isn’t a killer, what is she? Grandpa, if that’s really the case, once I tell the commander-in-chief or the chief of staff Zhong Nuannuan’s true identity, I may just make a huge contribution once it’s verified. In this way, Zhong Nuannuan will be caught and Chi Yang will lose his fiancée. I’ll then marry Chi Yang. I know that Chi Yang doesn’t have parents and only has one grandfather. When I become the Chi family’s granddaughter-in-law, how long does his grandfather have to live? Isn’t the imperial jade ours? Moreover, I can achieve a great achievement too.”
Ling Pinyuan became more and more enthusiastic as she spoke, feeling everything was starting to make sense.
In the end, she even felt like she profited from a disaster.
Ling Li also felt that Ling Pinyuan was right. “Then, go to the military base tomorrow and sue her. I want her to regret everything so much that her intestines turn green. I want her to know that going against our Ling family will not end well.”
Ling Pinyuan was a little hesitant. “Tomorrow?”
“Of course! Do you want to wait for others to find out that there’s something wrong with her identity and then steal your credit?”
“However, this is only my speculation. Even though it is very likely the case, what if she’s doing this for another reason and she doesn’t have an ulterior motive? Then, won’t I be digging my own grave?”
Ling Li did not think so.
“Let me ask you, are you sure that this Zhong Nuannuan is from the countryside?”
Ling Pinyuan nodded. “Yes. Although her father is a commander of the military base and her mother is a member of the board of directors at Cloud Group, Zhong Nuannuan was abducted when she was three years old and didn’t return home until she was seventeen. Since Chi Yang is very popular in the military base, everyone is very curious about his fiancée’s identity. Therefore, I’m not the only person who knows about Zhong Nuannuan’s situation, many people in the military base know about her.”
“Then, what else is there to investigate? Children in farming districts don’t even have enough to eat. Who could’ve taught her these fighting techniques? She even knows stone-gambling… Ask her which mountainous she’s from. If there’s such a wonderful area, our Ling family should seek refuge there. Isn’t this obviously a lie? What’s there not to say? Even if she’s not a killer who’s here to kill Chi Yang and neither is she a traitor, she’s suspicious enough to be a traitor, isn’t she? Furthermore, she’s clearly not from the mountainous areas, and the military base’s investigation said that she came from the mountainous areas, which is enough to prove that she has deceived the military base. How can such a person become the wife of a soldier?”
When Ling Pinyuan heard that, she felt that it made sense. Hence, she nodded and said, “Okay, I’ll cancel my leave tomorrow. I’ll go to the military base early tomorrow morning and make sure everyone knows about this. Why else is Chi Yang so nice to her and the commander is biased toward her? She must’ve done something behind our backs.”
“Very well.”
After Zhong Nuannuan and the old master left, Zhong Nuannuan left a large pile of raw stones in the back of the car. The bodyguard drove them to a private restaurant to meet Chi Yang.
“Little Girl, how are you going to deal with those raw stones?”
“I plan to donate them to the military base.”
“What?” The old master was shocked.
To be honest, he thought that Nuannuan would sell these raw stones, or cut them out herself and sell them for money. He even thought that since she was so good at picking raw stones, she might start a jewelry store.
He did not expect her to say something so touching.
