48.11% Her Mafia Wife (GL) / Chapter 51: Chapter 51

章節 51: Chapter 51

"What happened?"

Xiaohui asks and looks at Meixiu, seeing that the taller girl has a bandage on her arm.

"What happened to this?"

Xiaohui grabs Meixiu's arm softly and looks at the bandage that has a visible red patch.

"A fire broke out at the construction company."

Xiaohui gasps, looking up at Meixiu, and the girl nods her head up.

"Then you came inside and bought me out?"

"Hmm."

"What happened to Mr. Tan?"

Meixiu stops for a while at Xiaohui. She looks down and sighs before shaking her head.

"He sadly passed away."

"What?"

"You can check what happened on the news."

-

The sudden news report about Tan Yong and Tan Construction shocked Jiangqiao.

They couldn't believe that a very powerful person could be killed by just a fire.

They think there is someone much more powerful than him who can get him killed.

But as much as Jiangqiao's people thought about it, they couldn't pinpoint who that mysterious person was.

Yong is very respectful of people who are much more powerful than him.

Because he is also carrying Li's name, he should do what she said and how she wanted him to act.

After all, Yong was kind of adopted to be her husband.

Jiang Duyi was in no shock upon hearing the news. He already knew who caused all of this, and it was the Young Master of the Ren Family.

He was shocked at what power she had and is jealous because she can get anyone or anything she ever wants with just a snap of a finger.

He didn't like the idea of him insulting her, and he thought he might end up like a cloud of dust just seeing what happened at Yong.

"That's gruesome."

Qing said beside him as the two watched the news.

She looks at him and leans towards his body, confused as to why he was so quiet upon hearing the news.

"What's wrong?"

Qing asks, worry laced in her voice.

Duyi shakes his head before smiling at his woman.

"Nothing, I just feel thankful that I didn't experience that."

"Huh?"

Qing was confused by what Duyi just said.

"You don't understand; it's the young master who caused that."

Qing was shocked at what she just heard.

She then asks Duyi why the Young Master would commit such a heinous crime for someone with whom she may or may not have had any interaction.

"Father called and said that Mrs. Song was at that construction company just earlier and is somewhat in trouble."

"He said, the young master requested him three helicopters with bodyguards, and they drove off to the construction building."

"It seems like the young master loves her wife dearly and saved her from someone."

Qing swallowed thickly.

"What happened? Why would the young mistress be in trouble?"

"Well, Yong probably took advantage of her. Father said she was unconscious and was put to sleep."

"But then Father told me that Li was there as well; she might have caught Yong taking advantage of the young mistress."

"So, the young master killed Yong?"

"Not really, it was Li's doing."

"To please my father, she ordered her men to beat him up, ending his life."

Suyin and her grandmother are looking at the news with unreadable expressions.

It's early in the morning, and the news today is still about what happened yesterday at Tan Construction.

Yesterday was a disaster for those who invested in the company.

"They deserve it."

The old woman whispered before standing up from the couch she was sitting on and looking at Suyin, whose eyes were fixed on the television.

"You are going to Ms. Song, right? Go on now."

Suyin looks up and smiles before nodding her head.

"I'll take my leave."

Grandma Jia nods and watches as Suyin leaves the villa.

She sighs and imagines Suyin and Meixiu marrying each other.

The thought of it makes her happy.

As for Suyin, she's actually happy to spend some time with Meixiu.

She was aware of her wife's situation, but she wanted to be friends with the girl.

It'll be meaningful if they actually go all out, but a friend would be a nice title for now.

She sees something in Meixiu that she's never seen in anyone else, and she wants to know more about it.

"Ms. Song!"

Suyin greeted Meixiu happily upon seeing her walk out of the house.

The mentioned girl looks at her and smiles before bowing down, causing the smaller girl to panic and bow down at her as well.

"Suyin, why did you suddenly ask me to come with you?"

"Ah, Ms. Song. I'm viewing a few antiques, and I'd like for you to join me today."

Suyin's eyes went to the bandage on Meixiu's arms, and she hurriedly asked about what happened to it.

"Ah, I just got it from the fire. Don't worry about it."

Suyin arched her brow at what she heard.

Didn't the only fire that happened happen in the Tan Construction? Is it where she got it?

"Ms. Song, if you don't mind me asking, where did the fire break out?"

"I was with my wife at Tan Construction yesterday."

Suyin's smile faded upon hearing what Meixiu just said.

Right, she has a wife.

She smiles quickly and leads Meixiu to her car, to which the taller girl nods.

"Ms. Song, we'll go to the famous temple. It'll be filled with a lot of antiques that someone from another town is selling."

"Feel free to get whatever you want; I'll pay for it."

-

Meixiu got mesmerized by the view in front of her. The Famous Temple, or as people usually call it, Lauhu Temple, is situated on top of the mountain with views behind it that you can only imagine if you have a creative mind.

Meixiu has heard about the Lauhu Temple, but she has never seen it in person.

As far as she remembers, this was under construction when she was 10 years old.

"The construction on this temple ended 4 years ago."

"Is that how long they built this?"

Suyin nodded her head, remembering the time she learned about this building being constructed.

"I remember someone telling me about this, and she said it would be a venue for antiques."

"Woah, she knew it'll happen."

Meixiu said, looking at Suyin.

"I guess she's a time traveler."

Suyin joked. Meixiu shakes her head, and a chuckle escapes her lips.

"There's no such thing as a time traveler."

"I'm just joking."

Suyin said and shakes her head.

"Let's head inside, Ms. Song."

Meixiu nodded her head as Suyin led the way inside the temple.

As they enter, a lot of antiques are scattered around the area, and Meixiu can see that only a few of them have any value.

She shakes her head as she gets disappointed at the contentment inside.

Suyin saw her action and asked Meixiu what was wrong.

"Nothing, I'm just disappointed that they even displayed the factory-made."

"What?"

Suyin was confused and took out her phone.

She went to the conversation between her and the owner of the antique show and looked at the photo and the antiques displayed around.

"But it looks exactly the same; how are you able to recognize it at a distance?"

Suyin said, and look at Meixiu.

The taller girl smiles before she walks towards the nearest antique and points at the design.

"This one. Isn't this a bit weird?"

Suyin looks back at her phone and at the vase in front, furrowing her eyebrows as she sees the somewhat odd design in person.

"The original vase has a design that is not too close to the bottom of the vase. It also has that small scratch if you'll ask me."

Suyin was shocked at what Meixiu just said.

She never even let Meixiu look at the pictures the owner gave her.

She's starting to realize that Meixiu is someone in whom you can trust in antiques.

She knew a lot and wouldn't betray you for someone or something.

Meixiu looks at Suyin as if she never heard her say anything.

She caught the girl looking at her with admiration, but she didn't mind it and cleared her throat.

"Hey, I'll melt, you know?"

Suyin snaps out of her thought, clearing her throat as she looks around, blushing at what Meixiu just said.

"Sorry, Ms. Song."

Meixiu laughs lightly and shakes her head before she talks more about the antiques that she saw that were fake.

As she talks, Suyin can't help but stare at Meixiu deeply.

She can see the enthusiasm and joyful side of Meixiu, and she likes her.

But then she remembers that Meixiu has a wife; she shouldn't be thinking of something else with the taller girl.

Hey! Sorry for the wrong grammar but hope y'all like it :)

章節 52: Chapter 52

"Ms. Jia!"

The mentioned girl looks at her back and smiles upon seeing the owner, Ms. Meng, walking at her with a smile.

Ms. Meng hugs Suyin, and her eyes go toward Meixiu, who's looking at a piece inside the venue.

"Who is she, Ms. Jia?"

Meng Quiyue asks, looking up and down at Meixiu.

Suyin smiles before she pulls away, grabbing Meixiu and presenting her in front of Quiyue.

"Ms. Meng, this is Ms. Song."

Suyin said.

"Ms. Song, this is Ms. Meng; she's holding the event."

Quiyue looks up and down again at Meixiu, seemingly doubting her eyes before she smiles and bows down.

"Nice to meet you."

Meixiu smiled and did the same thing, nodding her head as she presented her hand to ask for a handshake.

"It's a pleasure to meet you."

She said.

Quiyue hesitated to accept her hands but did it anyway, not to look rude.

She quickly pulled her hands away and looked at Suyin.

"Ms. Jia, feel free to roam around. The auction will happen in a few minutes."

Quiyue spoke as Suyin nodded and dragged Meixiu away.

The girl eyed the two before she shook her head and sneered.

-

"Where's your brother? It's been two days, he's still not giving us any updates!"

Grandpa Zheng burst out and stood on his chair, slamming his hands on the table as he yelled at Mingxia, who had no idea where on Earth her brother was.

"Why don't you call him? Grandpa?"

Mingxia says, but the old man scoffs before sitting back in his chair and looking at her.

"You do it."

Mingxia curses under her breath and brings out her phone, dialing Qiang's number.

As soon as the call was connected, Mingxia heard a woman's voice.

"Hello?"

She furrows her brow at the unfamiliar voice.

"Hello? Who is this?"

"Are you related to Mr. Zheng? If so, he is currently at Green Hospital and is still healing."

"Huh? Why would my brother be at a hospital?"

Grandpa Zheng's eyes went to Mingxia.

He quickly stands up from his chair and goes to her, snatching her phone away and talking to the person on the call.

"What is he doing there?"

Mingxia looks at her grandfather in confusion.

The old man's face became blank, and he quickly hung up the phone.

"What happened?"

Mingxia asks.

Grandpa Zheng scoffs before he gives back the phone.

"That brother of yours, instead of taking Lijuan out, decided to fight with a gang member!"

Grandpa Zheng said.

"But Qiang's not like that."

"What do you know about him?"

A knock interrupted their conversation.

Grandpa Zheng told the person to come in, and it revealed Xiaohui.

Mingxia scoffs and looks away from the girl, crossing her arms over her chest.

"What do you need?"

Grandpa Zheng asks, looking down at Xiaohui.

"Someone is looking for you."

As she finished, Wenqian went inside with a cold expression.

It seems different from how she approached Xiaohui earlier.

The woman went to the Zheng Company to check on Xiaohui.

Upon learning what happened at the Tan Construction from Yanlin, she personally went to the Zheng Company to check Xiaohui.

She wanted to know how Xiaohui was doing because they were already friends.

That's what she knew.

Xiaohui, on the other hand, was shocked upon seeing Wenqian standing in front of her with a smile on her face.

Who wouldn't, right?

All she knew was that what they were doing was purely business.

"Ms. Zhong! What's with the sudden visit?"

Grandpa Zheng quickly went to her side and bent down.

He looks at Mingxia and glares, making the girl follow his lead.

Wenqian went inside the office and stood beside Xiaohui.

"I am here to take Ms. Zheng out."

"Oh, Ms. Zhong, you didn't have to do that."

Mingxia blushes as she looks up and smiles at Wenqian.

The latter furrowed her eyebrows at her action.

"Why are you saying that?"

"What she meant was you didn't have to take her out."

Grandpa Zheng interjected, smiling at the thought of Mingxia and Wenqian being friends.

But it shocks him that it's not Mingxia that she wants to take out. It's Xiaohui!

"I'm sorry, I'd like to take Ms. Zheng..."

Wenqian glances at Xiaohui.

"I wanted to know if she was okay with what happened yesterday."

"How did you know that? Ms. Zhong?"

Xiaohui asks, furrowing her eyebrows upon learning Wenqian's intentions.

Wenqian quickly panicked at the unexpected question.

She clears her throat after a moment of silence before she reasons out.

"An employee of mine visited the building, and he saw you going inside Mr. Tan's office, but he left even before the fire started."

"Oh, ok."

Xiaohui nodded her head.

Wenqian went back to looking at Grandpa Zheng, waiting for his answer.

He still has a red face from embarrassment earlier.

"Of course, Ms. Zhong, you can take Xiaohui out."

"Thank you."

Wenqian looked back at Xiaohui and nodded, making the latter follow her out of the office.

Grandpa Zheng grabbed Mingxia's arms and sneered at her.

"You make me an embarrassment!"

"Grandpa, I didn't know she was talking about Xiaohui!"

"You still want to act like a fool!?"

-

"Ms. Jia! This is a beautiful piece of an antique pen. Do you want to have it?"

Quiyue has been trying to sell Suyin something, but she keeps denying everything.

Every time her team would go and put something on the stage, she was not raising or betting anything, which was strange on her part.

Suyin is known to be the bank of those fraud antique sellers because they can effortlessly sell her something that she has no idea about.

And because she's not with someone who can look at an antique.

And she would always lean towards Meixiu, seemingly asking about the piece Quiyue was presenting.

It pisses the girl off because how can someone as young and as stupid as Meixiu tell whether the piece is worth it or not?

And just like that, Suyin leaned in again to speak to Meixiu.

"Ms. Song, is that one worth it?"

Meixiu quickly shakes her head and answers.

Suyin nodded before looking back at Quiyue and smiling at her.

Quiyue smiled fakely before she proceeded to ask the other people at the auction.

Suyin felt like there was something as Meixiu kept on declining her request to buy something when it looked good.

She couldn't help but doubt Meixiu yet again. But she shakes her head and sticks to what her grandmother stated.

"She is one of the rarest masters we could find. If we become friends or family, we'll become one of the richest!"

But she still doubted her grandmother's words.

She decided to say something to Meixiu, who kept a blank face as a lot more antiques were being put out to sell.

"Ms. Song, why do you think these antiques are not worth it?"

Meixiu looks at Suyin before she leans in to whisper in the girl's ears.

"All of the antiques she's putting out are fake ones."

"I can't believe she can do something like that."

"She didn't even put those few antiques that I've pointed out that are real."

Suyin was shocked at what Meixiu said.

It couldn't be, right? Suyin knew Quiyue. And she knew the girl wouldn't do such a thing.

Is she just trying to milk her and the others?

Is that the real reason why Quiyue is so fond of her?

Her hands balled into a fist, but she didn't let anyone notice her anger.

She's a well-known, collected lady, so letting everyone know she got angry because she's being cheated will make the news.

It'll also only make her look stupid because she can't distinguish whether the antique is fake or not.

She'll be compared to her grandmother yet again.

"Ms. Jia, what do you think of this one?"

Quiyue asks, hoping that Suyin would buy at least something from the auction she set up today.

She looks at the piece in front and sees the beautiful antique necklace that she can use daily.

"This one pushes bad luck away! It'll be beautiful with you as well!"

Quiyue said with enthusiasm.

Suyin looked at Meixiu but saw the girl clench her fist as her eyes changed into anger.

"Suyin, don't ever buy from that lady."

Meixiu said loudly.

She stands up from the chair and grabs Suyin's arm.

Quiyue finally exploded and pointed her finger at Meixiu.

"What is it that you have any business here!? Are you trying to milk Ms. Jia!?"

"Says the one who's doing it."

Meixiu said before scoffing at her.
