Since Susie came back from Guan's house that day, she drew a circle on the calendar.

The date of the circle is one month later, and Susie plans to do it herself if Boss Zhou doesn't suffer retribution within a month.

After drawing the circle, Susie put the matter down.

The next day, Su Xi went to the processing factory early in the morning. The office at the new store was still being renovated, and Zhu Zhicheng was working here now.

Seeing Su Xi coming, Zhu Zhicheng reported to him: "I went to the police station yesterday afternoon, and the police told me that the gangster said he set the fire because he was scolded by the workers when he was passing there during the day. He was angry and wanted revenge."

Susie had question marks all over her face, "Such a weird reason? Did the police believe it?"

Zhu Zhicheng smiled wryly, "There's nothing you can do if you don't believe me, and you can't extract a confession by torture."

Susie frowned.

Zhu Zhicheng continued: "The little gangster has been taken into custody now, and he will be prosecuted for a trial in a while. The police officer told me that it will take about three years if the deliberate arson did not cause serious consequences."

Susie thought for a while, "What about the civil compensation part?"

Criminal responsibility is on the one hand. If her store property is lost, she can claim civil compensation.

Zhu Zhicheng said: "I don't know about this—"

Susie found a business card from her bag, "Lawyer Wang, please contact him, let him follow up on the case."

Zhu Zhicheng took the business card, "Okay."

Half a month passed in a flash. That evening, just as Susie came home, the phone rang. Susie hurried over to pick it up, "Hi, hello—"

Lin Jiali's voice came from next to her ear, "Sissy, you are at home, I have something to tell you."

Susie sat down on the sofa, "Well, tell me."

"Well, Sister Baozhu's father passed away, tomorrow—"

Susie jumped up from the sofa, "What did you say?" She suspected that she was hallucinating.

Lin Jiali said it again, "Sister Baozhu's father passed away, and my dad doesn't plan to go to the memorial service tomorrow, so let me go. I think you have a good relationship with Sister Baozhu, otherwise, let's go together tomorrow. "

Su Qian couldn't wait to ask: "Isn't Boss Zhou in good health? Why did he die suddenly?"

Lin Jiali said: "You didn't read the newspapers, they were all published in the newspapers. What happened a few days ago, Boss Zhou went to buy gems in Wudian, and encountered a fight between the local gangs, and was hit by a stray bullet."

Susie's heart beat a little fast, "I've been busy these days, so I really haven't read any newspapers."

Lin Jiali suddenly lowered her voice, "My dad said that Boss Zhou must have used some kind of talisman, and he was backlashed."

Susie clenched the microphone, "Really, there is such a thing?"

She was a little worried that if the news spread, it would have some bad influence on Uncle Guan.

Lin Jiali said: "I don't believe it, but my dad seems to believe it."

"He said that Boss Zhou asked for the talisman from Master Guan himself. At that time, he thought it was inappropriate, but it was inconvenient for him to say so."

"I just didn't expect that the backlash would be so powerful."

Susie played dumb, "Oh, Master Guan? I know him, he lives next door to my house."

Lin Jiali was very surprised, "You know Master Guan? I heard from my dad that he is very powerful."

"However, I don't believe in these things anyway."

"By the way, I want to ask you, do you want to go to the memorial service tomorrow?"

Susie said without hesitation, "Go."

"Come and pick me up tomorrow, let's go together."

Lin Jiali agreed, "Okay, I'll pick you up around nine o'clock."

Susie hung up the phone, and hurriedly said: "Sister-in-law Quan, where are the newspapers these days, show them to me."

Mrs. Quan quickly brought some newspapers over, and Susie flipped through for a while, and quickly found the news she wanted to read.

Sure enough, it was clearly written in the newspaper that the jewelry tycoon surnamed Zhou was hit by a stray bullet in Bindian and died unfortunately.

Susie read it from beginning to end without missing a single word, and couldn't help but wonder in her heart, was this really an accident, or was it Mr. Du's hand?

Just thinking about Qiao Mu going downstairs, Susie handed him the newspaper, "Look at it."

Qiao Mu took it over, swept his eyes, and quickly understood what Susie wanted him to see, the corners of his mouth curled up, Master Guan really has the ability, the 100 million is worth the money.

Susie stood up with a brisk expression, "I will go to the memorial service with Carrie tomorrow."

Qiao Mu put his arms around Susie's waist, "Well, remember to send me a white flower too." The corners of his mouth slightly curled up, and he took Susie into the restaurant for dinner.

Early the next morning, after breakfast, Susie put her hair up and changed into a black suit.

When it was almost nine o'clock, the doorbell rang, and Susie went out and got into Lin Jiali's car.

The car drove towards the funeral home.

On the way, Susie heard from Lin Jiali that Zhou Baozhu had an older brother and a younger brother.

Brother Zhou Chengqi helped Boss Zhou manage the business, saying that he was managing the business, but in fact he did nothing, eating, drinking and having fun was his main business.

I like chasing female stars the most.

The younger brother, Zhou Chengzhi, is 22 this year and is going to college in the United States.

We chatted all the way to the funeral home.

Before getting out of the car, Lin Jiali glanced outside, "There are reporters."

Susie then looked out of the car window. Several reporters were taking pictures of those who came to mourn at the entrance of the funeral home.

When the two got out of the car, the reporter didn't recognize who they were, so they took a picture of them first.

Walking to the door, someone handed Susie a white flower.

Su Xi took the white flower and entered the mourning hall with Lin Jiali.

There are many wreaths in the mourning hall, and everything is white as far as the eye can see.

Susie and Lin Jiali placed the flowers in front of the spirit tablet, and they saluted towards the photo.

Zhou Baozhu, dressed in sackcloth and filial piety, quickly came over and accompanied the ceremony.

After saluting, Lin Jiali held Zhou Baozhu's hand and said softly, "My condolences."

Su Qian saw that Zhou Baozhu's eyes were a little swollen and looked haggard.

At this moment, Susie felt that Zhou Baozhu who had lost her father was very pitiful.

She was moved with compassion, she felt that as long as Zhou Baozhu didn't come to provoke her in the future, she could pretend that what happened before didn't happen, anyway, Xu Chengcai had already taken revenge for her back then.

Su Qian sincerely said to Zhou Baozhu: "My condolences go with the changes."

Lin Jiali said, "Where's Auntie?"

Zhou Baozhu pointed to one side.

Susie looked over there, and saw a woman in her fifties sitting there with straight eyes and a sad expression.

There were two young men in sackcloth and mourning standing beside the woman, who were talking about something unknown.

Looking at the appearance of the two, they looked a little like Zhou Baozhu, Lin Jiali whispered: "The one who wears glasses is Zhou Baozhu's younger brother Zhou Chengzhi, and the other is Zhou Baozhu's older brother Zhou Chengqi."

Su Xi nodded, and Lin Jiali and Lin Jiali were about to visit Zhou Baozhu's mother when they suddenly saw Zhou Chengqi punching Zhou Chengzhi violently. Zhou Chengzhi's head was tilted and his glasses were knocked off.

Then Zhou Chengzhi grabbed Zhou Chengqi's clothes, and the two brothers wrestled together.
