“Milord, what should we do?”
When Governor-General Zhou heard this, his face scrunched up tightly as if he was deep in thought.
This was indeed a problem.
However, he quickly said, ” Since this problem doesn’t work, let’s continue to create another problem.
The butler asked doubtfully, ” Sir, what do you mean? ‘
A vicious glint flashed across Governor-General Zhou’s eyes. He whispered a few words into the butler’s ear. Then, he said to the butler, ” Pass down the orders! ”
The butler’s heart skipped a beat. Then, he nodded and said, ” Yes, Sir! ”
Li Baoquan took the stone bead and observed them repeatedly. Then, he asked Doctor Liu in confusion, ” Doctor Liu, which bead has roots? ”
Doctor Liu looked at Li Baoquan in confusion, but he still pointed at a very inconspicuous place that seemed to be sprouting and said, ” Here, it’s here! ” Li Baoquan quickly discovered that a small bud had grown on the bottom bead.
Li Baoquan was ecstatic.
He held the stone bead and said in surprise, ” It’s true. It’s really sprouting. It’s really sprouting! My Li family’s heirloom has grown another treasure.”
This thing had sprouted, which meant that it could be planted. It also meant that in addition to this stone pearl, the Li family could grow another one. The value of this one was priceless, and it would bring a huge fortune to the Li family.
However, at the same time, he had a huge doubt in his heart.
This thing had been kept in the Li family for decades and had been passed down as the Li family’s inheritance treasure. There were originally twelve beads, but now there were only six left.
However, the value of these six beads was also priceless. Therefore, every member of the Li family treasured them.
However, these stone pearls had been kept in the Li family for so long and had not sprouted. Why did they sprout when Chen Shanbiao had them?
However, despite his doubts, he was still very happy to see a stone bead germinate.
Just as Li Baoquan was overjoyed, Chen Shanbiao’s words were like a bucket of cold water splashed on Li Baoquan’s head.
He said, ” Young Master Li, since you’ve already found your family heirloom, you can let my Fei ‘Er go. In that case, you can go to the court to withdraw the lawsuit!”
Li Baoquan’s hand that was holding the stone bead paused, and his ecstatic expression froze.
He could no longer deny that this thing was his.
However, the person who wanted to mess with Chen Shanbiao behind the scenes was Governor Zhou, who had immense power in Qing Feng City.
What should he do now?
Li Baoquan was at a loss for a moment.
A moment later, he smiled bitterly and said to Chen Shanbiao, “Then … Of course!”
However, he felt bitter in his heart because he knew that the person behind him would definitely not let him off.
Chen Shanbiao didn’t make things difficult for Li Baoquan. He just nodded and said, ” Then, can Young Master Li please go to the court now and withdraw this complaint? ‘
Li Baoquan could only nod. ” Alright, Uncle Chen! ”
Back then, he used the excuse of losing a treasure to throw Chen Yongfei into prison.
After that, when Chen Shanbiao came to plead for mercy, Li Baoquan had an excuse to ask for compensation. It was either 300,000 taels of silver or the Gold Origin Auction House.
If he didn’t want Chen Yongfei to stay in prison forever, or if he didn’t want to compensate, then fine, he could just return the lost heirloom to its rightful owner!
Alright. Not only did the item return to Li Baoquan in one piece, but it also brought him such a surprise. Even if he didn’t want to admit it, he had to admit it.
Otherwise, not only would he lose the Li family’s treasure, he would also be able to confirm the fact that he had framed Chen Yongfei.
However, there was one thing that he had always been puzzled about.
He asked, ” Uncle Chen, where did you find this? I heard from Yongfei that he won’t admit to losing my family’s heirloom!”
Hearing Li Baoquan finally ask this question, Chen Shanbiao glanced at Lin Yuelan. After receiving Lin Yuelan’s signal, Chen Shanbiao said coldly, ” Of course, my Fei ‘er won’t admit that he lost your Li family’s heirloom. Because,”
Before Chen Shanbiao could finish his sentence, Li Baoquan asked in shock, ‘
Because of what? ”
He couldn’t help but feel uneasy because his premonition told him that Chen Shanbiao’s answer was definitely beyond his expectations.
As expected…
“Because this stone bead was still in the Li family!” Chen Shanbiao stared at Li Baoquan coldly and said sharply..
