“I’ll explain it to you when we get there.” After saying that, Xia Zhe focused on driving. Along the way, Qiao Mei was curious about what Xia Zhe was “hiding” from her.

Some time ago, Qiao Mei had bought the land right outside the manor and built a fence around it. Any people and cars entering and exiting the area had to be registered. Even if there were many trucks entering and exiting the area, outsiders would not be able to know what was inside the trucks.

After the car was parked, they went straight to the living room. As soon as the door was opened, they could see more than 30 boxes of various sizes. Qiao Mei suddenly felt like she had really struck it rich! She might even need to specially build an underground vault to store these treasures!

No! She should specially buy a house and display all these things out nicely one by one, like a small “museum”.

“These are all mine!” Qiao Mei said excitedly.

“They’re all yours, but the things inside…” Xia Zhe looked at Qiao Mei awkwardly and continued, “Let me open the boxes up for you to take a look.”

Xia Zhe opened the two boxes nearest to them. What greeted their eyes were not those exquisite jewelry and oil paintings, but scrolls and porcelain ware. Qiao Mei was shocked. She had never seen these things in Country M.

“These…” Qiao Mei said as she looked at Xia Zhe in confusion.

“I have gotten some people to do an appraisal. All the valuable collectibles are in those marked boxes. I’ve sold the rest and bought items which hold more value in our country. Take a look and see if you like them,” Xia Zhe said apologetically.

After all, he was a complete novice when it came to such collectibles and he did not know the exact value of these items. He was worried that the new items he bought in exchange were worth less than the original items.

Qiao Mei took a quick glance and knew that these things were definitely not just ordinary stuff. Xia Zhe must have put in a lot of effort into this. Qiao Mei hugged Xia Zhe and gave him a big kiss before saying, “Of course I’m satisfied! I like them very much!”

Xia Zhe seemed to remember something else. He opened his bag and took out a small box filled with ledgers.

“I found a very strange thing in their collection room. It looks like the detailed records of their transactions. It should be their butler who wrote all these. Take a look,” Xia Zhe said as he handed the box to Qiao Mei.

The ledgers recorded all kinds of miscellaneous things, big and small. For example, there was a listing of a receipt of hundreds of thousands of dollars for killing someone, and then a listing of the items plundered from someone’s house after killing them. Everything was recorded very clearly. It would not be an exaggeration to say that these were “criminal notebooks”.

Xia Zhe flipped to a particular page in a ledger. It was clearly stated, “Successfully detained Fang Chen and received three million dollars.” However, there was no record of the identity of the requestor.

“Why was it not a request to kill you? The person paid three million dollars just to keep you in Country M? They might as well give me the money!” Qiao Mei said as she looked at the ledger in disdain.

“I ran an investigation on this matter at a later time. It seemed that someone had spread rumors about my fake identity and said that I had other motives in mind. That not only did I have money, but I also had an even larger amount of assets hidden away. Anyway, there were all kinds of rumors,” Xia Zhe said helplessly.

“Who is so lame as to fabricate such a ridiculous lie just to keep you in Country M?” Qiao Mei asked with a laugh.

The Xia family’s background was clear to see and they did not have any royal bloodline. Their ancestors had been farmers for generations and they only became more well-to-do during Xia Jun’s time.

“I think… they’re not targeting me but you,” Xia Zhe said as he stared at Qiao Mei.

“Me?” Qiao Mei pointed at herself and asked in shock.

Xia Zhe’s admirers in Country M all knew about Qiao Mei. Those women could only be thinking of ways to chase Qiao Mei away. Why would they want Qiao Mei to continue to stay in Country M! There was only one person who would want to restrain both Qiao Mei and Xia Zhe, and that person was He Ning.

“What’s that brain of his made of? Why does he always do these inexplicable things? Does he think I’ll give him ginseng if he keeps you in Country M? Does he think he can harm the Xia family? It’s not as if Elder Brother is dead, so it’s not as if he will be able to do whatever he wants!” Qiao Mei said.

“Sigh…” Xia Zhe shook his head resignedly. Qiao Mei still did not understand He Ning’s true motive, but that was a good thing too. At least it proved that Qiao Mei had nothing but hatred for He Ning.

“Let’s not talk about this anymore. We’ll think about it in the future. The most important thing now is to put all these things in storage. It’s too conspicuous to keep them here,” Xia Zhe said.

Qiao Mei was also feeling vexed about this. The house in Lian City had never been occupied though. Moreover, that place was big and the location remote, so it was not a place that an ordinary person could find. She thought that it would be good to send all these things there.
