After all, the watch the lady was wearing was the latest model that Cartier had released this year. It was worth at least 30,000 dollars.
An ordinary person would not pay 30,000 dollars for a watch
And the Patek Philippe on the man’s wrist was worth at least six figures.
It had to be said that the teahouse owner’s eyes were really sharp.
He asked with a smile, “Miss, Sir, what would you like to drink?”
Jiang Tingxu did not know her teas well and she said, “I don’t know. Ask him.”
In the end, it was up to Mo Boyuan to decide. He said, “Three cups of Longjing tea.”
He had already seen the list of teas the teahouse offered on the wall when they entered the teahouse earlier.
However, it was obvious that most small teahouses like this one wouldn’t really have any good tea.
Fortunately, they didn’t care too much about this.
When they arrived at the private room, they carefully examined it and found that it was indeed pretty decent.
This private room was separate, so it was almost impossible for their conversation to be leaked or for someone to eavesdrop on them.
Moreover, the room was located in a nice spot. If one stood by the window, one would be able to see all the entrances and exits. There weren’t any blind spots at all.
And if anything were to happen, they could easily jump down from the second floor and escape easily.
Of course, it didn’t come to that in reality.
After Xie Zhiming sat down, he also called for the two of them to sit down and said, “The two of you, don’t just stand there. Sit down.”
Only then did the two of them sit down. The owner of the teahouse quickly came in with a teapot and cups. After pouring three cups of tea, he left and closed the door of the private room.
Xie Zhiming took a sip of tea and asked, “La.s.s, why haven’t you come back to visit after so many years?”
Jiang Tingxu hesitated, “I…”
“It’s alright. I’m not trying to question you. I was just asking. Anyway, since you are back, you can retrieve the demolition fund and property allocated to your family. It’s been more than ten years.”
Huh? What?
Demolition fund?
And the property allocated to her family?
Wait, what was all this about?
When did she become a demolition parvenu?
“Hehe, you silly girl. The land around us has all been bought over. The people who used to live in Hao’er Lane and the surrounding areas have all been moved to a neighborhood nearby. You two should have pa.s.sed by there when you came. It’s just that I haven’t been able to contact you, so the money for the demolition and relocation of your family and the houses that were later allocated were kept for your family by the community.”
So that was the case!
Ahem.
“I got it. I’ll handle it as soon as possible. Uncle Xie, sorry to trouble you.”
Xie Zhiming must have helped them to still be able to hold on to the funds for so long. “Girl, why are you so polite? Your dad and I are old friends who have gone through life and death together. By the way, something must have happened for you two to come back so suddenly, right?” “Yes.”Jiang Tingxu didn’t deny it.
“What is it? Tell me!”
Jiang Tingxu’s heart sank. She pursed her lips and then said calmly, “Uncle Xie, I suspect that there is something that goes deeper with my dad’s sudden death back then! Someone couldn’t hold it any longer and took action some time
ago.”
Xie Zhiming was indeed stunned and he asked, “What do you mean?”
The sudden death of his good friend back then was something that Xie Zhiming regretted a lot and he had also felt that it was suspicious.
After all, Xie Zhiming was also a member back then. Many things were really not as simple as everyone thought!
It was very complicated.
“Those people seem to be looking for the things my dad left behind!”
Jiang Tingxu had already made things very clear.. What else was there that Xie Zhiming couldn’t guess for himself?
