Chapter 1969: Nuannuan’s Silly Sweet Eyes

Wu Jingcheng opened the box and placed a red book inside.

“These are the five shops near the river in the Wangcheng area of Sea District. The shops aren’t too big, so please don’t mind that. I’ve already called someone to help me change the name in the property’s deed. When the time comes, you can go to the housing authority and print a new copy of the property deed certificate for yourself.”

Sze Lingyun’s eyes widened.

Sea District! Riverside! Five shops!!!

Sea District was considered the second largest city in Camino. The housing prices in Sea District were comparable to those in Emperor District. Wangcheng area was in the heritage area of Sea District, so it would not be an exaggeration to say that the housing prices there were astronomical.

Second Uncle Wu had just leased her five shops.

“I-I can’t take them!” Sze Lingyun firmly refused.

However, how could Sze Lingyun alone argue against the five eloquent members of the Wu Family?

After trying to reject his gift a few times, Shi Lingyun finally backed down. Not only did she accept the shops given to her by the second uncle of the Wu family, but she also accepted the card given to her by her aunt.

That was because her aunt said that she looked very sweet. Due to Wu Zongxu’s actions, Wu Jingmin would never be able to conceive a child. She liked Sze Lingyun, and her and her new aunt Wu Jingmin looked quite alike. Thus, Wu Jingmin treated Sze Lingyun like her own daughter.

…

Thinking about how such a good child had not been given any parental love, Wu Jingmin was tempted to rush over to the Sze family to figure out what was going through their heads.

After acknowledging their new family members, exchanging gifts, and finishing their meal, everyone rushed to Wu Zongxu’s room to retrieve the video recording that he had hidden under his bed.

If Nangong Nuannuan and Chi Yang were not present, the first thing the Wu family members would have done upon returning home would have definitely been to watch the video.

However, the Wu family showed good etiquette in front of their guests.

They had already troubled Nangong Nuannuan and Chi Yang greatly. Despite how anxious they were, they did not want to neglect their honored guests.

After watching the video, the Wu family members were furious.

“The Xu family doesn’t take the Wu family seriously. They actually dared to sic their subordinates on us. That Xu Yunyun arranged for people to harm my Pingting! Since they’re so heartless, they shouldn’t be surprised if we act heartlessly too.”

The video featured Wu Zongxu meeting with Xu Binren a few times. The video was high-quality, so Xu Binren and Lan Weisong would not be able to deny this charge even if they wanted to.

“How is Xu Yunyun? Did she get caught?” Nangong Nuannuan suddenly thought about the ruthless girl and could not help but ask.

“It makes me furious!” Wu Zongyang said. “Yesterday, Dad sent people to the Xu family to arrest her, but Xu Yunyun hid the moment she found out. The Xu family said they didn’t know where she was, so we didn’t catch her.”

Nangong Nuannuan, “…”

She really wanted to know how this family had become the wealthiest family in Sea District. Could it really have been just thanks to God’s favor?

When he met Nangong Nuannuan’s muddy gaze, Wu Jingzhong felt too embarrassed to lift his head any higher than necessary.

“The Xu family knew that we definitely wouldn’t let Xu Yunyun off. In retaliation, not only did they hide her, but they also gathered many police officers at their residence. My father brought people over to arrest her, but instead, he himself was almost arrested. They said that he was suspected of enlisting people and bringing them over to commit a murder. All my father could do was call the police. When they received the case, watched our video, and listened to the recording, they promised to try their best to arrest the suspect.”
