“Alright!”
Hu Ying took a sip of tea and said slowly, “I’ll give the detective agency two days to find Yu Miao quickly. Otherwise, you don’t have to stay by my side any longer.”
“Madam, you want to fire me?” The assistant said in fear, “You really can’t blame me for this. Yu Miao is too cunning.”
She still had a patient at home and was in a hurry to get money to pay for medicine. She could not lose her job.
Hu Ying snorted coldly. “Who asked you to be useless? Hurry up and find Yu Miao. Then I’ll remember your contribution. Otherwise, get lost and I’ll change to another assistant.”
She did not keep useless people around her.
The assistant nodded unwillingly. “I’ll work hard. Don’t worry, Madam.”
Even if it was for her family, she had to do her best.
In the villa.
Yu Miao had been cooped up in the house for a few days. She wanted to buy something, so she spent more than half of the 80,000 dollars Hu Shuo had transferred.
She also knew that this could not support her livelihood at all.
Coincidentally, she still had some jewelry in her luggage.
Yu Miao went out to the jewelry shop to sell the things.
In order to avoid being discovered, she dressed up properly.
As soon as she entered, the jewelry shop owner welcomed her with a smile. When he heard that Yu Miao was not here to buy jewelry, but to sell jewelry, his expression immediately changed.
“Go to the small house at the back. Someone is collecting jewelry there.” The boss sent Yu Miao away.
Yu Miao snorted.
The jewelry in her hands were all good stuff. If the boss did not accept them, he would definitely lose a lot of money.
Yu Miao walked to the door of the small house and knocked. A one-eyed old lady stared at Yu Miao with a smile. “Girl, are you here to sell something?”
Yu Miao raised her head. “Yes, let me in quickly.”
The old lady nodded.
The two of them walked into the house. The house was dark, and the windows were sealed. It was very airtight.
Yu Miao subconsciously felt a little danger.
She took two steps back. Unexpectedly, a tough man came out from behind her and pushed her into the house, closing the door.
Bang!
The door made a loud noise.
The old lady smiled at Yu Miao. “Come with me.”
In a corner of the room, there were two tables with a lot of jewelry on them.
Yu Miao said, “I’m not selling anymore. I want to leave.”
What the hell was this place?
Why was it like a haunted house!
The burly man picked up an axe from the doorway, walked toward Yu Miao, and said with a smile, “You think that you have the rights to make the decision? Hurry up and sell, or I’ll be taking one of your fingers.”.”
He looked at Yu Miao’s hand.
Yu Miao looked at the axe. The axe was very sharp and there were faint traces of blood.
She was so shocked that her legs went weak.
Yu Miao said, “Okay, I’ll sell them.”
Her life was more important. She didn’t want to leave a finger behind. Without a finger, wouldn’t she become a cripple?
In terms of looks, she could not compare to Yu Su.
Was her body going to become incomplete now?
Yu Miao couldn’t help but tremble. She took out the three pieces of jewelry she had brought. They were a necklace, a ring, and a bracelet. They were all top-notch goods, and they were even decorated with diamonds and pearls.
The old lady could not help but laugh. “Girl, did you steal this from a rich family?”
She sized Yu Miao up.
Yu Miao said, “No way. You can rest assured about the origin of this thing. It was all given to me by someone else. They were all bought from overseas and are worth a lot of money.”
These three were all given to her by her brothers.
The old lady smiled happily. “That’s good. Name your price!”
Yu Miao gestured.
The old lady asked, “Nine thousand?”
“No!” Yu Miao shook her head and said in a trembling voice, “90,000 dollars.
I’m not selling anything lower than this!”
This were the last things she had left.
In the past, when she was at the Yu family’s house, she had a lot of jewelry. However, this time, after she was chased out of the house, her luggage was thrown out. These three pieces of jewelry were found in the cracks.
Therefore, she had to sell it at a higher price.
The old lady looked over coldly. “I’ll give you ten thousand dollars at most. Are you selling it?”
10,000 dollars was a lot for people who needed money urgently.
Yu Miao gritted her teeth. “No, at least 50,000. Otherwise, even if you kill me, I won’t sell it.”
The old lady and the fierce man looked at each other with ruthlessness in their eyes.
The man walked forward and placed the ax on Yu Miao’s head. “Do you want money or your life? Choose one yourself. It won’t be good if you lose both your life and money in the end..”
