C180 Mysterious Ring
Only now did Su Jinxi know that she had underestimated Aunt Su's shamelessness in the past. She originally thought that she could sell her daughter for money.
Only now did she know that selling her daughter was a small matter. She still wanted to sell the Su Family mansion.
Not only that, but she was also shameless to the point where she could raise the price. 15 million could be sold to others. She wanted 30 million yuan to sell to Si Leeting.
Aunt Su really did not know how shameless she could be for money. Su Jinxi was shocked when she saw this.
However, Aunt Su did not feel that she did anything wrong. She smiled and said, "What's wrong with me?"
"You are the wife of the Su Family. It is fine if you do not protect the ancestral business of the Su Family. Now you still want to raise the price and sell it. Don't you have a conscience?"
"Does it hurt? A living person can't afford to eat anymore. Why do you care about a dead person? Su Jinxi, I might as well tell you.
Even if you say you want to cut off all ties with the Su Family, it won't change the fact that I raised you for so many years.
It was impossible for Mr. Si to marry you without spending a single cent.
The fifteen million I added was your prize money. I have already taken a step back.
Mr. Si, are you going to buy it or not? If not, I will sell it to Chief Zhang. " Aunt Su threatened.
Su Jinxi was afraid that Si Leeting would fall into Aunt Su's trap, so she quickly held his hand and said, "Leeting, don't buy it."
"Stupid girl, you are such an ungrateful person. If I had known earlier, I would have..."
She did not know what she was going to say, but she actually shut her mouth.
Si Leeting said coldly, "Then you can sell it to someone else. Anyway, this isn't my ancestral mansion. Why should I spend money to buy it?"
Aunt Su wanted to extort money, but she didn't expect Si Leeting to not sell it. She was so angry that her expression turned ugly.
"Then don't regret it. Chief Zhang, 15 million. We will transfer it immediately."
"Okay, deal."
Su Jinxi looked at Mr. Su. "Just let her sell the property of the Su Family. She sold the old residence today. What will she sell tomorrow?"
"Jinxi, it's not that your mother insisted on selling the house, but the situation of the Su Family is not good. We have no choice." Mr. Su was the one who felt the most uncomfortable.
"She's not my mom. I don't have a mom who treats money like her life!"
Aunt Su had crossed the line again in front of Su Jinxi today. Su Jinxi did not know such a mother at all.
Si Leeting gently patted the back of Su Jinxi's hand, "Don't worry."
Although Su Jinxi said she wanted to leave the Su Family, she definitely did not want to sell the old residence from the bottom of her heart.
But she was not willing to let Aunt Su sit and raise the price, letting Si Leeting spend more than ten million for no reason.
Si Leeting had a way? What could he do?
Seeing Aunt Su and Chief Zhang sign the resale contract, Si Leeting said coldly, "Chief Zhang, please wait."
Now that the media had made a fuss, everyone knew Si Leeting's identity. Everyone in the industry was afraid of him.
"What orders does Boss Si have?"
"I don't dare to give any orders. I just want to discuss with Director Zhang. How about selling this house to me for 20 million?"
Actually, as long as he asked, Chief Zhang would be willing to give him 15 million, let alone 20 million.
Si Leeting deliberately increased the price by 5 million just to anger Aunt Su.
She thought that she would have no way to raise the price. He would not give the extra money to the Su Family.
Chief Zhang earned five million for no reason. This was much more worthwhile than doing business.
"Boss Si is too polite. If you like this house, I will sell it to you at the original price."
"No need, just 20 million."
"Thank you very much, Boss Si."
Aunt Su was almost angered to death. "Si Leeting, you are deliberately trying to make things difficult for me, aren't you? How about this, I'll sell it to you for 20 million."
Director Zhang immediately gave up. How could he let a cooked duck fly?
"Mrs. Su, this is yours, isn't it? No matter if it's business or anything, it's all honesty. We've already signed the contract."
"Old Zhang, we haven't gone through the formalities yet. Look at him, he's my son-in-law. Our relationship... Just... "
Aunt Su made Su Jinxi feel extremely disgusted again and again. This person was really open-minded when it came to money.
I'm sorry. I remember that Susu and the Su Family had a complete ending before this. She is not your daughter. How can I be your son-in-law?
Furthermore, you have already signed the contract. Now, the ownership of the house belongs to Director Zhang. I only acknowledge Director Zhang. "
Si Leeting did not give her any face. Aunt Su was so angry that her face turned ugly.
"Mrs. Su, let's go. Let's go through the formalities now."
"Si Leeting, Su Jinxi, you guys wait and see." Aunt Su suffered a loss of five million yuan.
Si Leeting ignored this disgusting woman and pulled Su Jinxi towards the villa.
Luckily they came at the right time, otherwise the house would have been moved.
"Susu, which house did you go to when you were young?"
"Over there, I'll take you there." Su Jinxi held Si Leeting's hand and walked towards the room in her memory.
Because no one had come back for many years, the villa was cold and deserted. There were thick ashes everywhere.
Si Leeting prayed silently in his heart that no one had touched their things so that he could have a chance to find some clues.
Pushing open the door that had been sealed for many years, the room was full of dust.
"This is it, but I don't know if it belongs to Eldest Aunt or Youngest Aunt."
The room inside still retained its original appearance. Si Leeting walked in with mixed feelings.
Su Jinxi pushed open the window and let the air flow.
This was a very special room. It was not that the room was luxurious, but it was full of fun.
There were many handiwork inside, which was why the room looked very special.
The desk was filled with all kinds of books, and the picture frame below was a picture of the two of them together.
There were also a few individual photos beside them. The woman in the photo was in high spirits. This was his mother.
Si Leeting picked up the photo frame and wiped the thick ashes with his fingers.
It was the same as the photo he had seen on the tombstone. Si Leeting had mixed feelings.
Su Jinxi had not noticed his strange behavior. She was just observing the small handicrafts.
This was where his mother used to live. Si Leeting ran his fingers through the books.
Even though his fingers were stained with dust, he did not notice.
His gaze landed on a photo album. Si Leeting opened the photo album. Most of the photos were of her and her sister.
Although her sister was very calm and steady, judging from the photos, the two of them had a good relationship.
Since young, he could feel the sweet interaction between the two of them through the photos.
Since they had such a good relationship, then why did the scene of her aunt abusing her appear later on?
Until they graduated from university, the photos of the two of them wearing scholar's clothes were full of smiles.
So it was said that after the two of them left the country, the biggest reason was probably because of their biological father.
According to Old Master Tang, his mother was born before marriage and was opposed by Su Family before her mother moved out.
In other words, she should have stayed at home for a period of time when she just returned. Would she have left any clues about her father during this period of time?
"Third Uncle, what are you looking for?" When Su Jinxi came back to her senses, she found that Si Leeting was rummaging through the cabinets and looking for something.
"Susu, come and help me look for something like a diary."
"Oh."
Su Jinxi also started to study and search. Su Yan seemed to like drawing, but she did not find the diary. Instead, she found a lot of drawings.
Si Leeting flipped through one by one and finally picked out a few drawings.
There was a special symbol on it, "Susu, do you recognize this symbol?"
Su Jinxi shook her head, "I don't. Could it be that aunt designed a logo for someone else? I think it looks like some logo."
"No, if it was designed for someone else, a logo would more or less change and there would be many versions. There is only one logo on these drafts."
"You're right. If it wasn't a logo, could it be a tattoo or something?"
"Tattoo?" Si Leeting took a picture with his phone. He had never seen a company or logo like this.
"It could be some special totem. Why did aunt draw so many totems?"
Si Leeting vaguely felt that this symbol was very important.
Although his mother had drawn a lot of drafts, those drafts were very different from the style of this symbol.
"Ha, could it be the flag of a pirate ship? In the past, every pirate ship had its own unique logo." Su Jinxi patted her head and said.
Now, just relying on a special logo was not enough to confirm anything. There were too many possibilities.
"Susu, look for any other clues."
Si Leeting searched even harder. If she really loved her father, she would leave some clues behind.0
There was no diary, no special contact, and there was no way she could be sure of anything.
The two searched around and found nothing. "Third Uncle, there doesn't seem to be anything special."
Si Leeting looked at the pile of handicrafts. Some of them were dolls made of cloth, and some of them were made of wool.
These were probably made out of boredom after his mother got pregnant. "Look at those things again."
"Okay."
Some of them were placed on a very high shelf. Su Jinxi had to stand on her tiptoes to get it.
"Susu, be careful." Si Leeting reminded her worriedly.
"I know." Su Jinxi had just finished her answer when she lost her balance in the next second.
Along with her, there was a very ordinary piece of decoration. This was a crystal ball commonly seen on the streets and alleys.
She heard the sound of porcelain breaking and the base of the crystal ball shattering.
"Third Uncle, I-I didn't do it on purpose."
Si Leeting helped her up. "You didn't fall, did you?"
"No, no. Eh, I think something fell out."
Su Jinxi had sharp eyes and took out a ring from the fragment. "This gemstone ring is so beautiful."
That was a very authentic cat eye green. The material used to embellish gemstones was also very expensive.
At a glance, this ring was not ordinary, and there were extremely delicate and exquisite patterns on it.
A string of letters "Smith" was carved into the ring's inner circle.
Old Master Tang remembered that his mother had mentioned this name by accident. He guessed that it might be his father's surname.
Could this ring be his father's?
