Chapter 264: Chapter 264: We Hit It Off Immediately

Ji Tengfei let out a chuckle, "What serious matters can a man and a woman discuss? Oh, right, being in love is pretty serious business too."

"Enough, stop talking nonsense." Ji Liancheng spoke up again, causing Ji Tengfei to sulkily shut his mouth, but then he quickly changed the subject.

"Brother, have you heard? Fan Jiang’s got into big trouble. I don’t know what it’s about, but a bunch of police went looking for him. Have you heard about it?"

"I know," Ji Liancheng replied gravely, "that’s what we’re talking about."

"Huh?" Ji Tengfei was surprised for a moment, "What do you mean? Why are you two talking about this? Does it have anything to do with you?"

This time, Lin Zhi answered, "That’s right, it has something to do with us."

Ji Tengfei was even more shocked. He quickly grabbed a small stool to sit down and asked with intense curiosity, "Come on, what’s going on? What did you do? Are you dealing with Fan Jiang? Is the Fan Family going down?"

Lin Zhi met his glittering eyes and hesitated for a moment.

Uh, this really is a curious baby...

"You tell him," Ji Liancheng said, looking at Lin Zhi.

Lin Zhi nodded and began to explain to Ji Tengfei, "Strictly speaking, dealing with Fan Jiang was an accident. Originally, I was going after Ye Shimin, but that unexpectedly involved Fan Jiang. Since it involved Fan Jiang, I dared not take reckless action against Ye Shimin. After some serious thought, I decided to seek cooperation with Mr. Ji, and we hit it off right away. So, we collaborated; I dealt with Ye Shimin, and he dealt with Fan Jiang."

Ji Tengfei: "..."

Why can I understand every single word, but it makes no sense when put together?

Knowing he didn’t understand, Lin Zhi continued to explain: "Here’s what happened. Ye Shimin was planning to frame me..."

Lin Zhi gave a simple rundown of the events.

The gist of it was that Ye Shimin wanted to frame her and sell her a batch of fake raw stones.

Lin Zhi discovered something was off with his raw stones, so she decided to turn the tables on him and then teamed up with Ji Liancheng to take legal action against him.

Since these raw stones had come from Fan Jiang, naturally, he would be implicated and face investigation too.

"How did you know these raw stones were problematic? How did you know they were all synthetically made?" Ji Tengfei asked the key question.

Lin Zhi smiled, "I met someone in D country who is really good with betting on stones, and he’s the one who told me about this. As for how I knew they were synthetically made, that has to do with his past experience..."

It turns out that after Zhu Yuan was swindled and lost everything, he always suspected something was amiss.

He didn’t throw away the problematic raw stone but studied it earnestly. He eventually uncovered the truth.

But the truth was shocking.

The raw stone he spent all his money on turned out to be synthetically made!

He thought to himself how there could be such a strange raw stone, with the rock on the outside being perfectly intact, yet the jade inside was all in pieces.

Most people, when faced with such a situation, would be so devastated that they’d have no motivation to further investigate the authenticity of the raw stone. After all, nobody would expect that raw stones could be faked.

Although there are many forgeries in the jade industry, they are mostly deceptive techniques designed to mislead people.

The idea that an entire raw stone could be manufactured was unheard of!

As for how Zhu Yuan discovered the truth, it was all thanks to his attention to detail.

He thoroughly researched that raw stone, not overlooking a single clue.
