Chapter 19 : Magical eyes.
Qin Bing was stunned and frowned slightly. She thought to herself that Lafite from 1982 could not compare to Erguotou. This brother-in-law was really talented. It was also his luck to be able to earn such a large sum of money. He could not allow him to mix with those rich rich second generation children. Not only did he lose money, but he also delayed his studies.
If it was really as Xu Qing said, a meal of nearly 100,000 yuan would definitely not last for half a year if the two of them took turns to pay for it. This was according to Qin Bing's calculation. The most important thing was luck, which was rare in a lifetime. A steady life was the right path.
"Qingzi, promise sister-in-law something?" Qin Bing's face suddenly became sad, and her eyes turned red again unconsciously.
Xu Qing was anxious when she saw this." Sister-in-law, if you have anything to say, just say it. As long as I can do it, I'll do anything you want, let alone one thing."
Qin Bing took a deep breath to calm down. Then, she said seriously," Sister-in-law told you to focus on your studies. Don't mix with rich young masters. School starts in half a month. You should stay at home and study properly. Can you do that?"
Xu Qing quickly nodded and said," I didn't plan to hang out with Young Master Tang all day. We're just ordinary friends. Don't worry, sister-in-law. My grades won't fall behind. Even if I go to the college entrance examination now, Jiang City University will definitely not be able to escape."
Looking at Xu Qing's confident appearance, Qin Bing heaved a sigh of relief. She took out the bank card from her pocket and gently pushed it in front of Xu Qing.
"Keep this card. Tomorrow, I'll use the money in this bag to pay off the debt and pay the rent."
Xu Qing didn't expect Qin Bing to make such a decision. He knew that she was unusually stubborn. Once she made a decision, it would be difficult to change it. He didn't reject it. He picked up the card and put it in his pocket." Okay, if you want money, just say so."
"Yes!" Qin Bing answered and began to clean up the dishes. Xu Qing also continued to search for information on the Internet. At this time, the PHS in his pocket suddenly rang.
After picking up, a strange voice came from the other end of the phone. After listening carefully, he realized that it was indeed the beautiful landlord.
"Qingzi, can you come over and talk to Sister Zhu?"
Xu Qing was stunned. He began to think blindly in his heart. Sister Zhu asked me to go over so late. What kind of words did she say? Could it be urging rent? Anyway, she had money now. At worst, she could just pay her the rent later…
"Qingzi, are you listening?" Zhu Xiaoling, who was on the other end of the phone, started sobbing softly. Xu Qing quickly put away his little thoughts and said," Yes, I'm listening…"
There were constant sobs on the other end of the phone. After a while, Zhu Xiaoling finally choked and said the reason." My house has been burgled. Can you come over?"
When Xu Qing heard this, she replied without hesitation," Sister Zhu, don't panic. I'll be right over." When he heard this, how could he sit still? He casually took out a small stack of bills from his bag and put them into his pocket. He shouted in the direction of the kitchen," Sister-in-law, Sister Zhu has something to do with me. I'll pay the rent!"
"Yes!" Qin Bing replied, but Xu Qing had already left the house.
Zhu Xiaoling lived in a four-story building not far from the rental house. Xu Qing had been there many times before, but it was the first time she went so late.
Hurrying up to the second floor, Zhu Xiaoling's door was ajar. She pushed it open and saw that the room was in a mess. The beautiful landlord was sitting on the ground listlessly. All kinds of messy objects were thrown on the ground. At a glance, she knew that this place had been robbed.
Xu Qing frowned. He walked forward and whispered," Sister Zhu, have you called the police yet?"
Zhu Xiaoling raised her head with tears in her eyes and choked." I just informed my cousin. She will bring someone over immediately."
Xu Qing knew that the beautiful landlord had a cousin who was a police officer from the city public security bureau. The relationship between the two of them was close. There were many photos of the two of them in Zhu Xiaoling's room.
"Did you lose anything valuable?" Xu Qing frowned as he looked at the messy room and cursed the thief several times in his heart.
" I only have 20,000 cash and some jewelry. The most unfortunate thing is the five-colored jade pendant that Mom left me…" Zhu Xiaoling could not help but cry when she mentioned the jade pendant.
Xu Qing bent over and stretched out his hand." Let's talk about it first. If something is lost, we can still find it. The ground is cold."
Zhu Xiaoling responded and grabbed Xu Qing's extended palm. She struggled but did not stand up. She cried on the ground for a while and her feet went numb.
Xu Qing grabbed that cold little hand and lifted it up forcefully. Only then did she pull the beautiful landlord up. The two of them walked to the sofa and sat down.
"Sister Zhu, let me get you a glass of water." Xu Qing saw that the beautiful landlord was still depressed. He got up and poured a glass of water by the water cooler. When he accidentally glanced at the similarly messy bedroom, his eyelids blinked slightly. His left eye suddenly lit up, and some strange images appeared in his mind.
Two men in light blue uniforms were rummaging through the room. There was a pile of women's jewelry and money scattered on the bed. A palm-sized jade pendant was among them. The surface of the jade pendant was colorful and carved with a colorful phoenix looking up at the sky. All kinds of natural feathers were carved into colorful phoenix feathers. It was indeed an ingenious item.
The two men rummaged for a while, but they didn't seem to find anything valuable. They turned around and put all the money on the bed into their carry-on bags, allowing Xu Qing to see their faces clearly...
At this moment, Xu Qing felt a chill on her feet. Her attention was immediately attracted. The images in her mind stopped abruptly. She looked down and realized that the glass in her hand had fallen unconsciously. A glass of water had fallen on her feet. She looked up at the bedroom and saw that it was as messy as before. Where were the two men's shadows?
Xu Qing's brain went into a short circuit. He shook his head blankly, poured another glass of water, and returned to the sofa.
"Qingzi, you don't look too good. Are you sick?" Zhu Xiaoling took a sip of the water. Xu Qing's confused look was seen as sick by her.
"It's fine. I didn't sleep well last night." Xu Qing replied perfunctorily. He was now focused on figuring out what ability his eyes had. His right eye could see through jade stones, but could his left eye reconstruct the images of events that had happened in the past? This was too unbelievable!
Thinking of this, Xu Qing suppressed the throbbing in his heart and blinked his left eye hard. As expected, another image appeared in his mind. Two men in uniform were fighting in the living room. In the end, they even took two good cigarettes and a few bottles of Feitian Maotai from the wine cabinet. They were wearing rubber gloves and plastic bags on their shoes. One look and one could tell that they were experienced in this field.
It was not until these two guys walked out of the room with smug expressions that the images in Xu Qing's mind gradually blurred until they disappeared. He was also sure that there were three thieves in total. Two of them were burglary, the other was watching outside, and one of them had a black hair on his eyebrow.
Just as Xu Qing was trying hard to remember the three people's facial features, a group of police officers rushed in from outside the door. The leader was a valiant and beautiful policewoman. She looked a little similar to Zhu Xiaoling, more hot and capable, but less mature and charming.
She was Zhu Xiaoling's cousin Jiang Siyu. She smelled like ginger and rain, and her whole person had a strong smell.
Jiang Siyu rushed to Zhu Xiaoling's side anxiously and said,"Cousin, are you okay?"
Zhu Xiaoling smiled bitterly." I lost my multicolored phoenix pendant…" As she spoke, her eyes became moist again.
Jiang Siyu frowned slightly. She knew what the multicolored phoenix pendant meant to her cousin. She comforted her softly," Don't worry. I'll get someone to investigate the scene first. As long as the thief is still in Jiang City, I'll definitely dig him out."
After saying that, he immediately turned around and arranged for his colleagues behind him to investigate the scene intensively and collect all relevant clues...
