1376 Hidden Drugs
Jiang Yu sat on the sofa for a long time until the sun slowly set outside. She then sorted out her messy thoughts and got up to return to her room.
When it was time for dinner, everyone in the room was seated at the dining table, but Mo Long had yet to return.
“Why isn’t President Mo back yet? Did something happen?” Teng Yi was extremely anxious.
He was already feeling very guilty because he was injured and could not work. Now that Mo Long was outside and had not returned for a long time, he could not go out and look for him.
!!Therefore, he was even more anxious and restless.
“It’s nothing. Don’t worry.” Jiang Yu comforted him. “He must have encountered some problems at the business meeting today and accidentally tripped himself. That’s why he didn’t come back so late.”
Although he said that, Teng Yi’s heart was still anxious.
Mo Long didn’t come back, and no one picked up their chopsticks to eat. Mo Long didn’t return even when the food on the dining table had turned cold.
“I’ll go heat up the food first. You guys wait here first…” Before Mei Shuang could finish her sentence, there was a knock on the door.
It was the bodyguard who came over to report. “Madam, there’s someone outside. He claims to be Chi Rui’s butler. He said he’s here to give you a gift.”
When she heard the name ‘Chi Rui’, Jiang Yu immediately got up and walked to the door. She opened the door and said to the bodyguard, “Take me there to take a look.”
The bodyguard brought Jiang Yu to the door.
There was a man with presbyopic gla.s.ses and graying hair at the door. He was dressed in a butler’s uniform and held an airtight box in his hand. It was decorated with colorful ribbons.
When the butler saw Jiang Yu walking over, he quickly greeted her with a smile. He handed the box in his hand over and said, “This is Miss Jiang Yu, right? h.e.l.lo, h.e.l.lo, I’m Mr. Chi Ruichi’s butler. I’m here to give you a gift at his request.”
Jiang Yu took the box and saw that the things inside were still a little heavy.
“I’ve troubled him to always remember me. I’ve also troubled you to walk so far to give me a gift. May I ask what’s in this box?” Jiang Yu asked.
“I heard it’s a potted plant,” the butler replied with a smile.
A potted plant? Why would he give someone a gift like a potted plant?
Jiang Yu couldn’t figure out Chi Rui’s thoughts, but she could only accept this gift.
She said to the butler, “I’ve already accepted the gift. Please go back and thank Mr. Chi Rui for me.”
“Miss Jiang Yu, you’re too kind. It’s my duty to give you a gift.” The butler said with a smile, then turned around and left in the car.
Jiang Yu took the box and turned around to return to the house. In the house, everyone was sitting there waiting for her. When they saw her enter with an airtight box in her hand, everyone’s expression became dark.
“Madam, what’s in that box you’re holding?” Teng Yi asked.
“I heard from the person who looked like a butler that there was a potted plant in this box,” Jiang Yu replied.
“A potted plant? Who would give someone a potted plant as a gift?” Feng Ran was puzzled. “Usually, it’s jewelry or branded bags. At the very least, it’s a gift of roses. Who would send potted plants?”
“I’m not too sure either.” Jiang Yu opened the box to see what was inside.
There was indeed a potted plant inside, and it looked like it had been raised for a long time.
“It really is a potted plant. This Chi Rui person is really stingy. He doesn’t even give others good gifts, but he actually gives them a potted plant?” Feng Ran did not mind. “If I were to give someone a gift, regardless of whether it’s a man or a woman, I would definitely give them something branded. If you want me to give you something like this, I really can’t take it out.”
“But he doesn’t look like someone who lacks money. Since he sent a potted plant over, he should have his own meaning, right?” Mei Shuang guessed.
Jiang Yu had the same thoughts as Mei Shuang.
Chi Rui didn’t look like someone who lacked money. If he really wanted to give someone a gift, he wouldn’t give something as unpresentable as a potted plant.
Jiang Yu looked at the potted plant carefully and suddenly realized that the flower pot under the potted plant was relatively large and did not fit in with the potted plant.
Jiang Yu simply pulled out the potted plant along with the soil and saw a few bags of white powder under it.
“Oh my G.o.d…What the h.e.l.l is this!” Feng Ran exclaimed.
But everyone else could tell that it was drugs.
