Chapter 297 Not the same
Soon in the security room of Beijing University, Mao Zhiwei received a call from his mother.
When he heard Mao Lin's threat that if he didn't return the jewelry, she would break off all ties with him and never care about him again, he was immediately furious, but there was nothing he could do.
Just as he turned around, he saw Yu Xinrou who was looking for him. He immediately rolled his eyes and smiled at her, "Rou Rou, you came at the right time..."
......
Mao Lin was still waiting anxiously at home, feeling that every day was like a year. She just wanted to get the jewelry back as soon as possible, even if she had to throw it into the sea... However, to be on the safe side, she decided to find a small workshop to melt the jewelry. Only in this way could it be completely destroyed.
Soon footsteps were heard outside the door.
Mao Lin couldn't wait to open the door, "You're finally back, where are your things!"
Mao Zhiwei's face darkened, "Sister, Xinrou is visiting us for the first time today. No matter how anxious you are, wait until we finish our meal!"
Yu Xinrou hid behind Mao Zhiwei, looking at the woman in front of her who was covered in jewels and had an extraordinary aura, with a hint of envy in her eyes. Brother Zhiwei really did not lie to her. It was obvious that her sister came from a wealthy family, so Zhiwei would be even better.
She quickly stood up and said politely, "Hello, sister. I'm Yu Xinrou, a freshman in the Foreign Languages Department of Beijing University."
Mao Lin glanced at her impatiently, but her mother rushed out from behind her, "Hey, Xinrou, right? My Xiaowei told me that he is a good kid at first glance. Come in, come in quickly..."
Mao Lin looked at her interrupting mother, her teeth itching with hatred, "Mom, I don't have time to listen to you guys chatting here, give me the things!"
But Mao Zhiwei is already 30 years old. In this era of early marriage and early childbearing, he has long been considered an old bachelor by his neighbors.
It was rare to find a partner, and Mao's mother wanted to worship him. She ignored Mao Lin's gloomy face and held Yu Xinrou's hand affectionately, "Come in, come in and talk, I'll make you something delicious at noon..."
Mao Lin stopped her at the door and saw something hanging around her neck. She reached out to grab it and said, "Give me the thing. I'll leave immediately and not disturb your family reunion."
Yu Xinrou subconsciously covered the pendant around her neck. Her envy of Mao Lin instantly turned into hatred. "What a joke! This is a gift from Brother Zhiwei. Why did you take it away?"
Mao Lin: ...
Mao Lin suddenly felt difficulty breathing, but she didn't want to suffer any consequences. She immediately reached out and grabbed Yu Xinrou's arm and pulled the thing down.
Yu Xinrou started crying immediately, and Mao Zhiwei was so angry that he pushed Mao Lin and prevented her from leaving.
At the same time, Gu Changgeng and his colleagues have split up to look for Mao Lin, Mao Zhiwei and Yu Xinrou.
After failing to find the two men at Beijing University, they learned that they had returned home, so they immediately went to Mao's house to arrest them for questioning.
At this moment, Mao Lin was stopped by Mao Zhiwei angrily, while Mao's mother, who was standing by, was thinking about her son and future daughter-in-law, saying things like "a harmonious family brings prosperity", "an elder sister is like a mother", "the palms and backs of your hands are all flesh", "this is the only child in our Mao family", etc...
Mao Lin was extremely anxious, but unfortunately her strength could not bring any benefit to Mao Zhiwei, a light and strong middle-aged man.
She could only say softly, "This thing is really useful to me, so I can't give it to you. If you want a gift, I'll give you double the amount some other day! If you want jewelry like this, I'll buy you a bigger one later!"
As he spoke, he took off the watch on his hand and the pearl earrings on his ears and stuffed them into Yu Xinrou's hands.
Mao Zhiwei was skeptical. He could see that Mao Lin was really anxious. His sister was indeed a capable person. Since he had received benefits and promises, he didn't want to offend her too much...
He turned to look at the person he had finally managed to coax, "Rou Rou..."
Unexpectedly, before she finished speaking, Yu Xinrou threw the ladies' watch and earrings in her hands to the ground...
"Okay, that's how you tricked me. You tricked me into giving you my gold pendant, just like exchanging a broken watch for my gold pendant. You wish!"
Mao Lin was almost pissed off. Although Gu Jichuan and herself had good salaries, without the support of the old couple from the Gu family, they also had to maintain a decent appearance on a daily basis, which naturally cost a lot of money.
This watch was imported from abroad. It was a birthday gift from Gu Jichuan to her. She cherished it very much and it rarely got scratched.
If the situation wasn't urgent and she wanted to get rid of the vampire family and destroy the evidence as soon as possible, how could she be willing to give such an expensive watch to such a superficial and vulgar woman.
She picked up the watch on the ground. The dial had shattered into a spider web. She looked at her mother and brother cruelly, wishing she could die together with these two useless people who were holding her back.
But thinking of Gu Jichuan, his family, and his children, he swallowed the hatred in his heart and shouted, "Mao Zhiwei, take care of your partner! Are you going to break up with me because of a woman?"
Mao Zhiwei was frightened by the cruelty on her face. He took a step back unconsciously and pulled Yu Xinrou with a smile, "Sister, Rourou is ignorant, don't bother with her..."
Yu Xinrou was about to say something, but was stopped by Mao Zhiwei, "Shut up! This is my sister..."
Mao Lin was too lazy to even look at the two of them, and immediately took her things and left. But before leaving, she pulled Mao Zhiwei to the door and gave him some detailed instructions.
Not long after she left the tube building, the police arrived and asked, "Is Mao Zhiwei home?"
Seeing no movement from inside, the police officer knocked harder, "Mao Zhiwei, open the door!"
Hearing the knocks on the door, Mao Zhiwei shouted angrily, "Who is it? Hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry!"
When he opened the door, two policemen rushed in immediately. Mao Zhiwei was so scared that cold sweat ran down his forehead. Thinking of Mao Lin's strangeness, he subconsciously realized that something was wrong, "Who are you and what do you do?"
This is a police comrade who scanned the area and took out a photo. "Have you seen this Eight Treasures Ruyi Compass?"
Yu Xinrou also saw it clearly. Just as she was about to speak, Mao Zhiwei spoke first, "It looks familiar. It's very similar to the gift my sister gave to my boyfriend.
But the pattern on it is a little different, I accidentally broke it, and my sister has sent it to be repaired..."
