Chapter 30 - Enemies meet on a narrow road

Du Xinyue was particularly upset today, as if she was being pulled by an invisible force, and she was very angry at the Du family. When she returned to her so-called "home", she was even more furious, and smashed the furnishings in the house, as if this could dispel the haze in her heart. Seeing this, Jiang Ze sighed helplessly. He knew that at this time, only by obeying Du Xinyue's wishes could the storm be calmed. So he decided to go out and buy a bag for Du Xinyue that she had long admired, in exchange for her moment of peace. However, Jiang Ze had an unspeakable secret in his heart-he had brought Liu Yueru to Shanghai. He knew that Du Xinyue had no good feelings for this mother, so he had been hesitant and did not dare to mention it easily. He thought to himself that he would only have the courage to speak when Du Xinyue's mood improved a little. Jiang Ze shuttled between major luxury stores, searching among the dazzling bags. His wallet was not full, and every expense had to be carefully calculated. In the end, his eyes were fixed on a simple but stylish basic bag. Although this bag was not luxurious, its unique color was particularly eye-catching. It was the bright color that Du Xinyue's cloakroom lacked. Just as he was about to call the salesgirl to buy, a familiar figure suddenly broke into his sight. It was a woman with a beautiful face. That face seemed to have been seen somewhere. A picture quickly flashed through Jiang Ze's mind-the fleeting figure at the door of the herbal medicine store during the day. Could it be her? Xia Zhuozhuo? The girl who used to be always covered in dust and worked hard in the fields? Wasn't she already... Did he see it wrong? Jiang Ze was full of doubts and was about to step forward to confirm, but he saw a man in a well-tailored suit following Xia Zhuozhuo. The man was gentle and smiling, and his attitude towards Xia Zhuozhuo was respectful and attentive. Jiang Ze looked carefully and was shocked. Isn't this the Sixth Young Master of the Xia Family? He had attended many cocktail parties with Du Xinyue and was familiar with the Sixth Young Master of the Xia Family. Did he really make a mistake? Jiang Ze hesitated and finally decided to hide first to avoid alerting the enemy. He quickly hid behind a tall green plant and called Liu Yueru's video call. When the video was connected, Liu Yueru was cleaning with sweat all over her face. Jiang Ze was worried that Du Xinyue would visit suddenly, so he rented a house downstairs for Liu Yueru. "Mom, who do you think this is?" Jiang Ze asked in a deep voice, and pointed the camera in the direction of Xia Zhuozhuo. Liu Yueru looked carefully and showed an incredible look on her face: "Isn't this the money-losing Xia Zhuozhuo? Wasn't she burned to death? How could she appear here alive?" Jiang Ze's heart sank. It seemed that he really didn't make a mistake. Xia Zhuozhuo was not only alive, but also looked more beautiful and noble, as if she had been reborn. "Are you sure this is Xia Zhuozhuo?" Jiang Ze confirmed again. "How could I be wrong? I sold her to you, Linggu, myself!" Liu Yueru's tone was full of pride and pride, as if this was an achievement worth showing off. Jiang Ze felt mixed emotions when he heard this. Xia Zhuozhuo was actually still alive. Was her appearance in Shanghai a coincidence or a long-planned plot? What about the sixth young master of the Xia family beside her? What was the relationship between them? Countless questions and speculations flashed through Jiang Ze's mind. He knew that Xia Zhuozhuo's appearance was undoubtedly a huge threat to him. If she made her and Liu Yueru's crimes public, they would be doomed. "It's great that she's not dead! I haven't received the final payment from your Linggu yet!" Liu Yueru's words were filled with excitement and greed, "That's good, let's catch her and sell her again, we will definitely make a lot of money!" Jiang Ze couldn't help but feel angry when he heard this. He didn't expect Liu Yueru to still want to sell Xia Zhuozhuo again. Doesn't she understand that Shanghai is no longer a country where they can do whatever they want? "Don't say it!" Jiang Ze scolded in a deep voice, "You're still praying in your heart that she won't call the police to arrest us!" However, Liu Yueru said nonchalantly: "What's there to be afraid of calling the police? With the future daughter-in-law as a backer, why should we be afraid of the police?" Jiang Ze felt even more helpless when he heard this. He knew that it was impossible to reason with Liu Yueru, who had no legal awareness. He could only secretly pray that Xia Zhuozhuo would not discover their whereabouts, let alone bring them to justice. At this time, Xia Liu had already selected several bags for Xia Zhuozhuo. He patiently asked Xia Zhuozhuo's opinion, not letting go of any details. Jiang Ze hid behind the green plants and took in all of this. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart: This Xia Liu, is he really pursuing Xia Zhuozhuo? However, Xia Zhuozhuo had no interest in these bags. She glanced at the bags and said lightly: "I don't like any of them." Xia Liu was immediately in trouble when he heard this. The bags he carefully selected are all the hottest styles nowadays! At this time, the salesgirl came over with a tablet: "Sir, the bags displayed in the counter are limited. Would you like to take a look on the tablet? If there is a style you like, I can go to the warehouse to get it for you." Xia Liu readily accepted this suggestion, took the tablet and began to select carefully. Every time he selected a bag, he would stop to ask Xia Zhuozhuo's opinion. Even Jiang Ze was a little surprised by his patience and meticulousness. Jiang Ze knew in his heart that it was a pipe dream to snatch Xia Zhuozhuo from Xia Liu. He had to think of a way. At this moment, he suddenly had an idea and dialed a phone: "Are you from the Tiger Head Gang? Are you still accepting orders? I want you to help me kidnap someone!" A low voice came from the other end of the phone: "Of course, but the price is not cheap." Jiang Ze heard this and agreed without hesitation: "Money is not a problem, as long as you can help me get things done." After hanging up the phone, Jiang Ze quietly found a salesgirl and whispered a few words in her ear. The salesgirl looked embarrassed when she heard this: "This... I'm afraid it's against the rules?" "Rules? Do you know who I am? I'm Du Xinyue's fiancé!" Jiang Ze's tone was a bit threatening and arrogant, "As long as you help me get things done, Du Xinyue will be a regular customer of your counter in the future!" The salesgirl couldn't help but waver when she heard this. She knew that Du Xinyue was an SVIP customer of this counter and every time she shopped, she made a big purchase. If she could become a regular customer of Du Xinyue, her performance and commission would also rise. After some ideological struggle, the salesgirl finally nodded: "Okay, but you have to make sure we won't be implicated." Jiang Ze couldn't help but feel secretly happy when he heard this. He knew that as long as he could catch Xia Zhuozhuo, he would have a chance to get out of the predicament. As for Du Xinyue and the Sixth Young Master of the Xia Family, he had his own plan. However, he never expected that his decision would bring him greater trouble and crisis... The clerk still had awe for this big customer, nodded in agreement, and then turned to Xia Liu. "Sir, maybe the display effect on the tablet is not satisfactory, why don't I take you to the warehouse to choose in person?" "Okay, Zhuozhuo, let's go to the warehouse directly." The clerk looked embarrassed: "According to the rules, outsiders are not allowed to enter the warehouse. Two people are too conspicuous, so only one person can enter." Xia Zhuozhuo waved his hand lazily. "Sixth brother, just help me pick one, I'll wait for you here." "Okay, I'll give you a big surprise!" After that, Xia Liu followed the clerk into the depths of the warehouse. Xia Zhuozhuo has never been interested in shopping. She yawned and was about to take a nap on the sofa in the store when a familiar figure suddenly passed by her. Her eyes were stern. That person, could it be... Jiang Ze? "Stop!" Xia Zhuozhuo shouted, but the figure in front of him quickened his pace. This reaction...it must be Jiang Ze! Xia Zhuozhuo instantly cheered up and chased after him.
