Chapter 154 Bounty Hunters (1/2)
Shen Xinglan looked at her without expression. ”The doctor said it happened a month ago.”
”Great!” Shanshan wept with joy. ”I... I'm going to be a mother. I... I'm going to give brother Xinglan a baby!”
Le Yi came in from the outside and gave Shanshan a half-smile. ”You are pregnant now, don't get too excited.”
”Right, right, right!” Shanshan remembered something and asked worriedly, ”Am I okay?” Then she looked embarrassed, ”Brother Xinglan, don't blame sister A Miao. She... she didn't mean it.”
Shen Xinglan had a calm face and Shanshan thought he was angry. She bit her lip and continued to pretend. ”Fortunately, the child is OK, otherwise... otherwise, how could I be worthy of you!”
”Alright, you rest, and I'll take care of things,” Shen Xinglan said then turned to go.
Shanshan was worried and asked Le Yi, ”Brother Xinglan will not go to settle accounts with sister A Miao, will he?”
”Well... you see that he's so angry, it's not over yet.” Seeing Shanshan's eyes shining with pride, Le Yi lifted the corners of his mouth. ”You just listen to Shen and have a good rest until the fetus is stable before you leave the hospital.”
”Well, I know, thank brother Le Yi!” Shanshan lay back smiling and did not see Le Yi's meaningful smile.
As soon as Shen Xinglan entered the office, Ouyang Jin smiled and congratulated him, saying, ”Hey, you're going to be a father!”
”The child is not Shen's.” Ding V faintly looked at him.
Ouyang Jin gave him a blank look. ”Can't you have a little sense of humor?”
”Where is the jade pendant?” asked Shen Xinglan.
”In the drawer.” Ouyang Jin motioned with his lips.
Shen Xinglan sat behind his desk and pulled open the drawer. He frowned when he saw the jade pendant be only covered with newspapers and thrown in at random.
”It is copper and can't be broken.” Ding V reassured him.
After checking it out, Shen Xinglan frowned.
”What's the matter?” Ouyang Jin leaned in. ”A fake?”
”Do you know how to determine the truth?” Shen Xinglan turned the jade pendant around in his hand.
Ouyang Jin gave him a blank look. ”If you don't even know, how can I know?”
”A Miao's blood.” Shen Xinglan mentioned A Miao's name with pain in his eyes. ”Otherwise, I can't prove it was the one I was looking for.”
Ding V stood up to walk out.
”Where are you going?” Ouyang Jin stopped him.
”Going to find A Miao.” Ding V looked serious. ”She will give me blood.”
Shen Xinglan's face darkened. ”Don't go, sit down.”
Ouyang Jin laughed. ”Speaking of little A Miao, she must be sad. Alas, her heart breaker has already made another woman pregnant!”
”If you are free, go back to Australia to help He Shishi run the casino.” Shen Xinglan looked at him in a gloomy way. ”Or find out where the bronze mirror in this exhibition came from.”
Shen I and Shen II knocked at the door and came in.
”Boss, do you need them to continue?”
Ouyang Jin poured himself a glass of red wine. ”She is already pregnant, what will they continue with?”
”That's too bad, there are a few guys who haven't gotten their turns yet!” As soon as Shen I finished, he asked, ”Shall I give my brothers red envelopes?”
Shen Xinglan nodded. For more than half a year, all those who slept with Shanshan were his men. Le Yi said that the more people there were, the greater the chance of conception. So, everyone took turns pretending to be Shen Xinglan. After taking ecstasy anyway, Shanshan could not tell.
”The woman must have known she was pregnant.” Ouyang Jin flipped his hair.
Ding V looked at him.
”Why are you looking at me?” Ouyang Jin sneered, ”Shen certainly thinks so, doesn't he?”
Shen Xinglan pursed his lips. ”I didn't think about that at first, but today her behavior...” After a pause, he took the bronze mirror jade pendant on the table. ”I suspect that the person behind her is also coming for this.”
”Then why did we take it?” Ouyang Jin felt strange. ”If it is for this thing, shouldn't she also steal it... Ah!” He was startled. ”Is that girl stupid enough to steal the wrong thing?”
”What girl?” Shen Xinglan noticed his words. ”Who else stole a jade pendant?”
Ouyang Jin did not speak but smiled. Ding V finally had an expression, as if he was very happy. ”A Miao!”
”What?” Shen Xinglang quickly stood up. ”Did she steal the jade pendant?”
”No.” Ding V shook his head. ”A Miao took a painting.”
Shen II immediately said, ”Boss, news.”
”Turn on the TV!”
The news was being broadcast on TV, and Shen Xinglan stopped breathing and stared at it. Sure enough, a few minutes later, the picture was cut to the scene of the exhibition. A reporter was interviewing the person in charge. The police behind the two were busy collecting evidence.
”We have lost a landscape map of the Tang Dynasty, worth over 3 million.” The person in charge was indignant.
A reporter said, ”I heard that the burglars came in from behind, didn't your security system capture them?”
”It must have been a professional gang. Our surveillance shows nothing at all.”
”All the exhibits are insured. What will the insurance company do?”
