Novel Full Chapter 225 - 225 225 Qingwu Baby Really Is Versatile
Chapter 225: Chapter 225 Qingwu Baby Really Is Versatile Chapter 225: Chapter 225 Qingwu Baby Really Is Versatile Looking at the person lying on the bed, Qingwu couldn’t help but sigh.
“Why did you come?”
Su Mi hugged the plush toys on Qingwu’s bed, yanking their faces out of shape.
“Missed you, baby. I waited in your room ’cause you hadn’t come back!”
“If there’s something, just say it.”
Su Mi’s actions had already given her away; she had obviously come to Qingwu’s room because something was up.
“Knew I couldn’t hide anything from you!”
Su Mi handed her phone to Qingwu, “A few days ago someone messaged me, saying they had lots of my mom’s possessions… but it doesn’t feel right.”
After all, Su Mi grew up in the Su Family, navigating through danger for wealth. She was sharp enough to know what to do and say from just one look from Elder Su. Seeing those messages, her first instinct was something was off.
After thinking it over, the only person Su Mi could turn to was Qingwu—so here she was, at the Shen Family’s place!
After all, her baby Qingwu was so capable, surely she’d know what to do!
“Did you investigate this person?”
Upon receiving such information, Su Mi would have definitely inquired within the Black Dragon Gang about the situation.
Back when Su Mi’s mother passed, Su Mi was just a newborn. The people around her mother in the Black Dragon Gang would know best whose hands her belongings ended up in.
“I did; turns out it was someone from the Black Dragon Gang, but they retired when they reached a certain age.”
Su Mi rested her chin on a plush toy, her brows slightly furrowing.
Qingwu nodded, affirming Su Mi’s suspicions.
“Not quite right. The people around your mother should pass the things directly to you now that you’ve taken over the Black Dragon Gang; no need to arrange a meeting.”
Qingwu shook her phone, “Mind if I use this?”
Su Mi offered generously, “Go ahead, use it all you want!”
Su Mi thought Qingwu was going to do something with her phone, but instead, she watched her bend down and pull out a computer from under the bed!
It was barely the size of a palm!
Qingwu casually removed the hairpin from her head to activate a mechanism on the computer, only realizing something was off with the weight once she held it.
Upon closer inspection, she found the hairpin was a rich green, flawless under the light, made from top-quality glass species jade. It was the piece she’d extracted from the Su Family chaos last time.
“Hey, this hairpin is really pretty. Did you just buy it?”
“…Probably.”
Qingwu suddenly remembered seeing numerous cuts on Pei Jue’s palm when she was dressing his wounds last night.
It was normal for assassins to have various issues on missions, injured hands included—she hadn’t thought much of it. But holding this hairpin, Qingwu realized Pei Jue had purposely messed up her hair last night…
He’d actually made her a hairpin from the jade she’d gifted him!
She didn’t know why, but while she was very pleased when she received the hairpin from Shen Zhongshuang, her heartbeat seemed off-kilter at the sight of this jade hairpin…
Using the pin to gently trigger a preset mechanism, Qingwu opened the computer. Connecting Su Mi’s phone, Qingwu’s fingers danced rapidly over the keyboard with a calm focus.
Su Mi looked at the stream of data on Qingwu’s computer, feeling a headache coming on.
What was all this? She couldn’t make heads or tails! Was her baby Qingwu really this amazing, knowing everything?
The data on the screen quickly zeroed in on a hidden IP address. Qingwu eyed the address, furrowing her brows lightly.
“Do you know this place?”
Su Mi leaned forward to take a look, “Hey? Isn’t that close to the Su Family’s place?”
Recognizing the familiar address, Su Mi noted it was near the old Su Family estate.
Su Mi thought carefully.
“I remember there was a jade factory and a bunch of antique shops around there; it must be from one of those shops.”
“We’ll check it out tomorrow.”
“Huh? Why not now? Will we get caught if we go now?”
Qingwu glanced at her, stowed away the computer and phone, and lay back down.
“Because now I need to sleep.”
She had been called over to Pei Mansion by Annie last night, and she hadn’t found time to rest during the day.
What she needed most now was sleep!
…
At Pei Mansion next door.
Pei Jue watched as the lights went out in the room across from him, feeling the vast villa slip into silence.
He knew Qingwu must have gone to rest, so he turned and headed into the study.
The old butler stood by Pei Jue’s side.
“President Pei, we’ve encountered issues with several mergers that require your attention.”
“Master has reviewed them, indicating the folks over there are causing trouble again.”
Pei Jue nodded, picking up a document from the desk to review.
Some of the documents were at home, but many more awaited him at the company.
“Got it. I’ll rest first, and we’ll look at it tomorrow.”
“What? Oh, okay! Good night, sir!”
The old butler was quite surprised.
Even in the past, President Pei would go to work regardless of illness!
President Pei would even sit up to review financial reports shortly after surgery!
Round-the-clock work was routine for him.
The butler had been prepared for Pei Jue to pull an all-nighter to handle the documents.
Now he actually knew to rest!
Seeing the old butler’s shocked gaze, Pei Jue spoke coldly, “If Xiaowu asks, tell her I went to bed, no late-night working.”
The butler’s eyes widened, his heart filling with respect for the young lady of the Shen Family living across the street!
So, it was all thanks to the young lady!
She could get their tireless President Pei to rest; the Shen Family’s young lady was indeed extraordinary!
No wonder the Master was full of praise for the future granddaughter-in-law…
With such a young lady entering the family in the future, who knew how lively the house could become!
…
Early the next morning, Qingwu took Su Mi to the place they investigated the night before.
The location of the IP was on an antique street, with numerous jade shops.
At the shop Qingwu identified, raw materials piled outside the entrance.
“This should be it.”
“How come I didn’t know they opened a jade shop after retiring?”
Su Mi wasn’t too familiar with the Black Dragon Gang’s matters, but she knew former gang members often had enemies.
To avoid revenge, those who retired rarely went into business.
Let alone a jade business; operating in such circles made them easier to find.
Qingwu raised her chin, “We’ll find out by going in.”
Inside, there were plenty of jades, with some pieces of jade displayed on the counter, obviously intended to deceive with surface allure.
They were all the kind that looked expensive but were filled with low-grade injected material.
The shopkeeper spotted two young, pretty girls entering and immediately plastered a smile on his face.
These young girls didn’t know anything—a perfect mark!
Thinking that, the shopkeeper’s gaze turned fiery, like looking at two fat lambs ripe for the taking!
