The Amazing son in law Chapter 6147
Lin Wan’er (Alani) exclaimed without a moment’s hesitation, “Absolutely!” The young master had acquired the “Nine Mysterious Heavenly Scriptures” from the remnants of the jade pot and spring vase. How could the Nu family possibly forget such a significant detail?
Charlie nodded, pointing at the man standing alongside his father in the photograph, and quietly remarked, “He was the manager of the antique store back then!”
“What?!” Lin Wan’er (Alani)’s eyes widened in shock, her voice quivering as she questioned, “Young master, are you saying this man, who posed for a picture with your father in New York over 20 years ago, worked in an antique shop in Aurous Hill two decades later? Did he really give the jade pot and spring vase, which contained the ‘Nine Mysterious Heavenly Scriptures,’ to your father-in-law?”
“Yes…” Charlie confirmed with conviction. “I’m certain!” The man’s name is Zhou Liangyun, and the antique shop in Aurous Hill is called Ji Qingtang. It is part of the Moore Family’s holdings in the area. Back then, Ji Qingtang was struggling; within the vast Moore Family enterprise, it was merely a small, overlooked segment. The current head of the Moore Family, Jasmine Moore, was in charge of Ji Qingtang, and Zhou Liangyun was the manager at that time…”
At this moment, Charlie could feel his back growing damp with anxiety.
Previously, he believed he stumbled upon the “Nine Mysterious Scriptures” purely by chance.
Recently, he learned from his uncle that his parents had acquired the “Nine Mysterious Scriptures Preface.” He speculated that there might be a connection between the “Nine Mysterious Scriptures Preface,” the “Nine Mysterious Scriptures,” and “Tian Jing,” yet he lacked concrete evidence.
Now, he suddenly realized that Zhou Liangyun, the manager of Ji Qingtang, had actually been a friend of his father’s over 20 years ago.
Moreover, it was Zhou Liangyun who handed the jade pot and spring vase to his father-in-law, Jacob.
At that time, Jacob was waiting outside the room while his father was inside, so he didn’t witness the events directly. However, from what Jacob later recounted, Zhou Liangyun had taken the jade pot and spring vase out of an ornate packaging box and handed it to him, but the bottle slipped from his grasp and fell to the ground. Now, it was clear that Zhou Liangyun’s involvement couldn’t be mere coincidence.
With this realization, Charlie instinctively pulled out his cell phone and dialed Jasmine Moore’s number.
At this point, Jasmine was likely the best source to learn more about Zhou Liangyun!
The call was answered promptly.
When Charlie called Jasmine that evening, she was still bubbling with excitement. “Why is Master Wade calling me so late?” she inquired cheerfully. Charlie, trying to calm his racing heart, responded, “Jasmine, I need to ask about the former manager of Ji Qingtang, Zhou Liangyun. Is he still with the Moore Family?”
“No, he isn’t,” Jasmine replied almost instinctively. “He was very disrespectful to you and your father-in-law at Ji Qingtang. He couldn’t appreciate the true value of the jade pot and spring vase you restored. I felt his lack of professionalism was a significant issue, so he was let go.”
“Let go?” Charlie quickly followed up, “Do you happen to know where he went afterward?”
