Supreme Heir Son-in-law

Chapter 1385 - 1384: Vanity

Jin’s mother nodded, took out a necklace, and looked particularly pained, as she had spent a great deal of money on this necklace today.

"This necklace costs 20,000 yuan, but I heard that many high-society ladies wear this necklace. If you wear it, maybe you can interact more with Xu Ke, and besides, how can you be next to Xu Ke without some valuable items? It would hurt his reputation, and it would definitely be hard for you both to be together."

This necklace looked particularly beautiful, it was a new and limited edition from Swarovski, it must be very expensive. Especially since her mother had just had surgery recently and the family didn’t have extra money. Jin Yina looked at the necklace, tears welling up in her eyes.

"But mom, we really don’t have extra money, and you still need treatment. Why would you buy this necklace? It’s so expensive."

Upon hearing her daughter’s words, Jin’s mother got angry immediately. How could her daughter not figure this out, and still worry about how expensive a necklace is? Her happiness for the rest of her life is worth much more than this necklace. As long as she can latch onto Xu Ke, she could have as many necklaces as she wants in the future.

How could her daughter spend so many years in school just focusing on studies and understand nothing about this? It was practically a waste of money.

"Why are you still so confused now? If you can latch onto Xu Ke, life for our family will be much better. You can have as many necklaces as you want. So don’t dwell on this anymore. Your main task now is to latch onto your boss."

"Alright, be careful when you’re wearing this necklace, don’t lose it. If you lose it, think about it, 20,000 yuan would be gone."

After saying this, Jin’s mother opened the door and left, continuing her chores, tidying up the house spotlessly.

Jin Yina looked at the necklace in her hand. It looked exceptionally beautiful. How could a girl at her age not love these luxury items?

Moreover, Wang Die in the dormitory, who was a rich second generation, changed a branded item every other day. Who in the dormitory wouldn’t be envious? If she wore this necklace, wouldn’t Wang Die be envious to death? She heard that Wang Die had asked someone to buy this necklace recently, and she hadn’t gotten it yet.

Now with this necklace, not only could she have a bit more standing in front of Xu Ke, but even in the dormitory, Wang Die would probably look at her differently too.

Thinking of this, Jin Yina put the necklace around her neck, looking particularly beautiful, even her aura seemed to elevate a level.

"As the saying goes, a good horse needs a good saddle, and now it seems true. If I wore those branded clothes, I might not be any worse than that young lady. That young lady’s aura is completely built with money, nothing to be envious of, just as mom said."

At this moment, Xu Ke was checking information online, still finding nothing. He had been searching constantly lately, even hiring a company to look, but there was still no news.

Fox was quite skilled at investigation in the country, but he had been searching for half a month and still had nothing to show for it, feeling particularly frustrated. He had never encountered something so troublesome.

"Boss, although your mother used to live in a backward Taohua Village, I dare say now she’s definitely not in the country. I’ve searched the whole country, and there’s no information on her. If there was, at least her travel information would be available, but there’s nothing, so it only means your mother is abroad now."

Fox was particularly exhausted at this point, typing information on the keyboard. He was certain his deduction was correct. With his influence so widespread in the country, how could he not find her?

And Xu Ke naturally knew Fox was quite a skilled investigator in the country, so his words made sense. Maybe his mother really was abroad.

If his mother was abroad, she might not be familiar with the situation domestically.

Who knows what his mother’s thoughts were? If she supported him, maybe she wouldn’t have looked for Su Zining.

"If that’s the case, I still have to trouble Brother Fox to continue searching for me. Even if she’s in the country, contact me first when you find my mother. I want to ask her opinion."

Fox really couldn’t understand what it was about, for a mother to put her son in such a situation. This was her son’s marriage, such neglect was one thing, but even finding someone else instead.

But now that he had taken Xu Ke’s money, he was bound to perform the task, so Fox felt a bit resigned: "Rest assured, once I find your mother, I wouldn’t dare to act on my own either. I really can’t figure out your mother’s ways, and I probably can’t handle her either, so you better leave it to yourself."

After saying this, Fox went offline, and Xu Ke looked at the words on the computer screen, still unable to figure out what his mother was thinking.

According to what his mother used to say, maybe she was doing it for his safety, but the Xiao Family wouldn’t threaten his life anymore, so why look for Su Zining?

Could it be the Xiao Family found his mother again, and his mother didn’t know his situation?

But anyhow, finding his mother was the most important thing, and now she should be very dangerous, especially since Su Zining knew about his existence, she probably wouldn’t take kindly to his mother.

At this moment, Secretary Zhou walked in.

"Boss, there’s an elderly gentleman downstairs insisting on seeing you, but he doesn’t have any clearance, so I’m not sure what to do."

Secretary Zhou was particularly troubled. They had already tried to ask the old man to leave, but the old man’s skills were quite remarkable.

Moreover, he had an extraordinary presence, so even Secretary Zhou wasn’t sure about asking him to leave, and had come up to ask Xu Ke’s opinion.

Xu Ke frowned at this; logically, he only knew Elder Xiao.

He didn’t know any so-called old man, but now there was a commotion at the company, and it was time for lunch anyway, so he put on a suit and went downstairs with Secretary Zhou.

In the lobby, everyone was watching the elderly man, who was dressed in a dark gray suit, hair a mix of black and white, with a cane quietly placed beside him.

The old man was meditating with his eyes closed, and no one dared to approach for fear of angering him; after all, when the old man was angry, he would take out his stick.

The receptionist had already suffered from the elderly man’s cane, getting hit on the calf, with no place to file a complaint.

Hearing the commotion, the old man opened his eyes and looked at Xu Ke.
