Chapter 144: Chapter 144: Really Thank You

Isn’t she just after money without caring for her life?

Jiang Yihan simply didn’t care about other people’s gossip, nothing could defeat her.

On the other side, even though time had passed, they still hadn’t found Zhu Yuan.

"Mr. Ji, you go ahead! We’re running out of time, I can stay behind on my own," Lin Zhi said to Ji Liancheng, worried that he would miss the transaction because of her.

Ji Liancheng didn’t respond, constantly waiting for a phone call.

"Mr. Ji..." Lin Zhi tried to persuade him, when finally Ji Liancheng’s phone rang.

He answered calmly, without any rush, "Hello... okay, understood."

After hanging up the phone, he said somberly to Lin Zhi, "We’ve found him, let’s go."

"Really?" Lin Zhi exclaimed with a smile, "Is Uncle Zhu alright?"

"He’s fine."

Lin Zhi soon saw Zhu Yuan following Ji Liancheng.

Zhu Yuan hadn’t expected to be rescued, and knowing it was them, he was very grateful.

"Miss Lin, I didn’t expect you to save me again. In this lifetime, I could work like an ox or horse and still not repay your kindness!"

"Uncle Zhu, no need to be so formal, as long as you’re alright. By the way, what exactly happened?" Lin Zhi asked, concerned.

To save time, they rushed to the auction venue right after meeting.

Lin Zhi could only inquire about it in the car.

"It was Xue Tong who kidnapped me!" Zhu Yuan answered.

It turned out to really be Xue Tong who had kidnapped him. Xue Tong, humiliated by Ji Feifan that day, harbored a grudge. But after learning about Ji Feifan’s identity, he dared not do anything to him.

So, he turned his vengeance on Zhu Yuan instead.

Especially since Zhu Yuan had recently obtained two pieces of Emperor Green, making Xue Tong even more envious.

The kidnapping of Zhu Yuan by Xue Tong was not just for revenge; he also wanted to lure Lin Zhi there. Unfortunately, Zhu Yuan adamantly refused to cooperate, not even giving him a penny.

Xue Tong had no choice but to vent his frustration by torturing Zhu Yuan. However, since his goal was not achieved, Xue Tong didn’t go too far, and Zhu Yuan suffered only some superficial injuries.

Xue Tong had intended to torture him slowly until he gave in. He never expected someone to rescue him so quickly.

"This Xue Tong is really too arrogant, let’s report him to the police and catch him!" Lin Zhi coldly suggested.

Sitting beside her, Ji Liancheng said indifferently, "He has disrupted market order, and someone will deal with him. He won’t pose a threat to you in the future."

Lin Zhi was slightly stunned, she hadn’t really been concerned about Xue Tong’s intentions towards her.

She was only standing up for Zhu Yuan, but he had thought further ahead.

"Mr. Ji, I really appreciate your help this time, without you, things wouldn’t have been resolved so smoothly. Thank you so much," Lin Zhi said gratefully.

Zhu Yuan, sitting in the front passenger seat, also thanked him profusely.

Ji Liancheng seemed to hardly care about Zhu Yuan’s gratitude, he glanced at Lin Zhi, replying, "You needn’t thank me, I’ll also need your help soon."

"Of course! We’ll do our best!" Lin Zhi nodded in assurance.

The auction had already started a while ago, their car speeding towards the venue as fast as possible.

At that moment, the auction was in full swing.

When Lin Zhi and her companions arrived, a raw stone was being fiercely competed for by many buyers.

It was a very large raw stone, its surface revealing mottled jade.

Just by looking at it, one could tell there was quality jade inside!

But these buyers were not superficial people, how could they judge the jade content just by its appearance?
