Chapter 2199 Jade Ball. Continued

Seeing that they immediately forgot about the bad things that happened just now and smiled, Xiao Xiao also smiled.

He looked out the window.

The jade ball
Although it is a pity that I cannot find out the truth,
Forget it.

Since the owner of the house was unwilling, he couldn't force him.

Boss Cai then called Xiao Xiao again.

"Master Xiao, I'm so sorry."

"Old Bai"

"Looks like an old stubborn man."

“It’s actually a very modern idea.”

“I believe in science.”

"I don't believe in the mysterious stuff."

"It's all my fault during the day."

"Don't mind."

"I'm talking too much."

Boss Cai actually had some resentment towards Lao Bai in his heart.

That guy doesn't believe it, so forget it.

Can't you at least pretend to look better for his sake?
But when I think of how Old Bai looked at him at that time, he looked like an old fool.
Boss Cai sighed.

He couldn't expect the other party to be so considerate.

"It's ok."

Xiao Xiao smiled.

"Am I such a stingy person in Boss Cai's eyes?"

Knowing what Boss Cai was worried about, Xiao Xiao added, "Even if I am really angry about the other party's attitude, I will not take it out on Boss Cai.

"Haha, how could that be?"

Boss Cai laughed out loud, "Of course Master Xiao wouldn't do that."

"Master Xiao is such a generous person"

Boss Cai didn't feel embarrassed at all about having his secrets exposed.

After many years of ups and downs in the business world, this incident was not enough to embarrass him.

Instead, he felt relieved.

Master Xiao is indeed very perceptive.

Indeed, a big part of the reason why he made this call was that he was worried about what Master Xiao had said before.

In order to maintain a good relationship with Master Xiao, he treated him to a meal and greeted him with a smile, but in the end, Lao Bai gave him a sullen look, and all his efforts went to waste? !
Who would be happy about this?

He wouldn't feel at ease if he didn't make this call.

Now that he had heard what Master Xiao had said, he immediately felt at ease.

"Master Xiao"

After hesitating for a while, Boss Cai couldn't help but ask, "Is there anything wrong with the jade ball?"

He thought about it afterwards and felt that Master Xiao didn't seem like the type of person who would care about an ordinary jade ball.

He remembered that Master Xiao seemed to stare at the jade ball for a while?
This is enough to show that there must be something special about the jade ball that attracted Master Xiao.

what is it then?

……

"Has that jade ball been in Boss Bai's hands for a long time?"

Xiao Xiao asked instead of answering.

"Ah."

Boss Cai responded subconsciously.

I felt a little excited.

Although Master Xiao did not give a clear answer to his question, the fact that Master Xiao was so concerned about the jade ball meant that there was definitely something wrong with the jade ball, didn't it?

He was not gloating.

His relationship with Lao Bai can’t be said to be particularly good, but it can’t be said to be bad either.

Partners in the business world are harmonious as long as there is no conflict of interest.

He just thought that anything that could make Master Xiao care must be extraordinary.

After living for so many years, I experienced something magical for the first time.

Although there were no major incidents afterwards, he almost thought that the strange things that happened before were just a misunderstanding.

He couldn't help but feel excited at the opportunity to learn about something unusual again.

After all, it doesn’t matter if you don’t know.

Who wouldn’t be curious after knowing that there are things in the world that cannot be explained by common sense?

Especially since this happened right next to me.

……

"That jade ball originally belonged to Lao Bai's father."

"I heard from Lao Bai that his father kept the jade ball with him for most of his life."

"Lao Bai always thought that his father would not give this jade ball to anyone."

"But five years ago, the old man gave the jade ball to Lao Bai." Boss Cai told what he knew about the jade ball.

"That year, Lao Bai almost lost his life."

"The boss of the company he acquired held a grudge against Lao Bai and even took the risk of assassinating Lao Bai in the street..."

Speaking of this matter, Boss Cai shook his head and sighed, inevitably feeling a little sympathetic.

Markets are like battlefields.

The cruelty involved is far beyond what people who are not involved can imagine based on superficial impressions.

“That incident caused quite a stir back then.”

"Lao Bai even stayed in the hospital for two whole months."

"The hospital issued critical illness notices several times."

"Later, Mr. Bai was taken out of the intensive care unit, and the Bai family did not allow any outsiders to visit him."

"The next time I saw Lao Bai, he had recovered and was discharged from the hospital."

"When we met that time, Lao Bai already had the jade ball in his hand."

"Because I know that the old man of the Bai family also has a jade ball."

"At first I thought Lao Bai had made a jade ball just like his father's."

"Lao Bai told me that the jade ball in his hand was given to him by his father."

"I'm surprised."

"Everyone who knows Lao Bai's father knows how much the old man values ​​this jade ball."

"Oh, I didn't mean that the old man valued the jade ball more than his son."

Boss Cai explained his surprise.

"I just think... there's no need to send it, right?"

"Old Bai is also a little helpless."

"He said his father insisted that he always carry this jade ball with him, saying it could keep him safe."

“It just dawned on me.”

"It turns out that this jade ball was given to Lao Bai by the old man as a talisman."

Thinking of his own indifference at that time, Boss Cai felt as if he was in another world.

I don’t think that way now.

"It seems that Lao Bai's assassination really scared the old man."

Boss Cai lamented, "Other people in the industry were also scared at the time."

"After all, such an accident happened to someone I know."

"Everyone is a little nervous."

"I didn't expect that the old man would give his most precious jade ball to his son."

"Too."

"After all, the old man only has one son, Lao Bai."

"What could be better than your only son?"

"The old man loves his son very much."

"Of course I won't say anything."

"I also advised Lao Bai to follow the old man's wishes and keep the jade ball with him."

"In fact, I feel that instead of giving Lao Bai this jade ball, it would be more practical for the old man to hire a few more bodyguards for Lao Bai."

Boss Cai frankly expressed his thoughts at the time.

"Now it seems that I was short-sighted."

"The old man is the old man."

"How could something he has treasured all his life be in bad condition?"

Ginger is spicier when it’s older.

"But Lao Bai never encountered similar dangers again. I don't know if the amulet is useful or not."

"what."

"I'm not saying I hope Old Bai gets into danger..."

Boss Cai hurried to explain.

"I am……"

"oops."

Boss Cai was a little confused for a moment.

"Master Xiao, it's good for you to know that I have no ill intentions."

"Ah."

Xiao Xiao nodded slightly, "I know."

……

"Haha."

Boss Cai laughed twice and said, "That's good."
