Chapter 126 Discovering the Treasure Map
Chapter 126 Discovering the Treasure Map
Because of the bet, Fu Ruoan went to see Xie Qingran openly every day, and the two of them spent every day together.
Xie Qingran also dotes on Fu Ruoan and doesn't interfere with anything she does.
One day, Fu Ruoan suddenly had an idea and asked Xie Qingran to take out the jade pendant that he had asked her to keep.
Xie Qingran didn't say anything, he immediately opened the safe, took out the box and gave it to Fu Ruoan.
As soon as I opened the box, the lights in the office suddenly went out.
Xie Qingran hurriedly walked to Fu Ruoan and held her hand, fearing that someone was deliberately causing trouble.
Fu Ruoan: "Sister Ran, let go of my hand first. I'll use my phone to shine a light."
Xie Qingran let go of his hand after hearing that.
Fu Ruoan reached into his pocket, took out his cell phone, and turned on the small light on the phone.
He smiled and said, "Look, do we look like we are playing a horror game now?"
Xie Qingran nodded as she said: "Yes."
Fu Ruoan burst out laughing.
She smiled and handed the box to Xie Qingran, saying, "Here, let's go outside and take a look. It's late at night and there's no wind or rain, so why is there a sudden power outage?"
Xie Qingran nodded: "Okay, let's go."
But when the two of them walked to the door, they reached out to open it at the same time, and Fu Ruoan's hand accidentally touched the box.
The box fell to the ground. Fu Ruoan had seen the jade pendant and did not lock the box, so when it fell, the jade pendant fell out.
Fortunately, there was a carpet on the floor and the jade pendant was not broken.
Fu Ruoan squatted down and was about to pick it up, when he suddenly seemed to see something incredible and his eyes widened.
Xie Qingran's hand had already grasped the door handle. Seeing Fu Ruoan still squatting there, he said, "An'an, what's wrong? Did the jade pendant break?"
Fu Ruoan said hurriedly: "Don't open the door yet! Sister Ran, there's something strange about this jade pendant."
Upon hearing this, Xie Qingran hurriedly pulled Fu Ruoan back and asked, "What's wrong? Are you hurt?"
Fu Ruoan was still confused. Before she could figure out what it was, she was pulled up.
She squatted down again to pick up the jade pendant and said to Xie Qingran, "Sister Ran, come and see."
Xie Qingran also came over.
Fu Ruoan pointed the light at the jade pendant, and then a shadow was projected onto the wall.
At this time, not only Fu Ruoan was shocked, but even Xie Qingran was very surprised. Her lips were slightly open, which was enough to show how shocked she was at the moment.
The shadow on the wall was clearly a map.
Fu Ruoan murmured, "No, how did this thing get engraved into the jade pendant? Why did Grandpa give it to me?"
Yes, no matter how dumb you are, you will realize that something is wrong.
Fu Ruoan had never heard her brother say that the Fu family would give any jade pendants to their descendants. This was obviously an excuse.
But why did grandpa give this thing to her?
Could this jade pendant have other meanings?
But why give it to her?
Xie Qingran looked at the map carefully and found that it had markings.
Then he said: "An An, maybe this really is a treasure map."
Fu Ruoan: "Ah? I was just talking nonsense at the time."
Xie Qingran pointed at the projection on the wall and said, "An An, look, there are markings on it. I think these markings are probably the location of the treasure."
Fu Ruoan: "But there's no writing on it, how do we know where it is?"
Just as Xie Qingran was about to say something, the office lights suddenly came on and there was a knock on the door.
"buckle"
Qu Xilan's voice rang out from outside the door: "Mr. Xie, the power system has been repaired. There was a computer short circuit in the project department just now, which caused the power outage. It has been restored now."
Xie Qingran: "Well, you can go home after you're done."
Qu Xilan: "Okay, Mr. Xie."
Then there were the sounds of receding footsteps.
Fu Ruoan then looked at Xie Qingran and said, "Sister Ran, what did you want to say just now?"
Xie Qingran: "I was thinking, we can find a map to compare it with, and then we'll know."
Fu Ruoan frowned: "But the country is so big, how can we find it? How can we be sure where the treasure is?"
Xie Qingran tapped Fu Ruoan's forehead lightly and said, "Are you stupid? If it's a treasure, it must be not far from the Fu family. Otherwise, how can the Fu family get it? Therefore, the treasure is very likely in An City, or around An City. In short, it will not leave An City. In this way, as long as we find a detailed map of An City and its surroundings, we can find the location of the treasure."
Fu Ruoan nodded in understanding: "That makes sense." But after thinking for a moment, he said: "But, what if it's not true?"
Xie Qingran shrugged: "If it's not, then it's not."
Fu Ruoan slapped his head and said, "Look at me, I'm getting stuck in a rut."
Xie Qingran smiled and said nothing.
So Xie Qingran asked Qu Xilan to find a detailed map of An City and its surrounding areas, and the two compared them one by one.
Two hours later, Xie Qingran and Fu Ruoan still found nothing.
Fu Ruoan couldn't help but feel a little discouraged, and said dejectedly: "Sister Ran, could it be fake? I haven't found it after searching for so long."
Xie Qingran was calm and collected: "Why are you so anxious? If it were so easy to find, anyone could take it. Be patient. Good things come to those who wait."
Fu Ruoan turned around and hugged her, saying, "No wonder you succeed in everything you do. Just look at your attitude. If not you, who will succeed?"
Xie Qingran laughed and shook his head: "You, you only know how to say nice things."
Fu Ruoan: "Hehe."
Xie Qingran asked: "Still looking?"
Fu Ruoan pouted and said, "Let's not look for it anymore. My eyes are blurry. It won't run away anyway. Let's look for it tomorrow."
Xie Qingran glanced at his watch. It was getting late and it was time for Fu Ruoan to go home.
Then he nodded: "Okay, I'll pack up and take you back."
Fu Ruoan: "Okay, let's clean up together."
The two quickly packed up their things, turned off the lights and left the office.
The people in the secretariat have already left work.
Without stopping, they took the elevator directly to the garage.
As soon as she got in the car, an idea suddenly flashed through Fu Ruoan's mind. She asked Xie Qingran, "Why are you so eager to take me home every time? Don't you want to be with me?"
These words made Xie Qingran suddenly confused.
"ah????"
No, what is this girl talking about?
Fu Ruoan turned his head towards the window: "Huh! It's you."
Xie Qingran felt puzzled, but didn't know why.
So I was stunned.
When Fu Ruoan saw her like this, he became more certain of his thoughts and then got angry.
Xie Qingran had no idea what was going on, so she said cautiously, "An An, what's wrong?"
Fu Ruoan stared at her. Seeing her like that, he suddenly felt that his emotions just now were a little inexplicable.
Oh, what is she thinking about?
A little uncomfortably, he said, “No, it’s okay.”
Xie Qingran pursed her lips and prepared to start the car. As soon as her hand touched the steering wheel, a light bulb suddenly lit up in her mind, and she understood why Fu Ruoan had asked that question just now.
Suddenly I couldn't laugh or cry.
He reached out and held Fu Ruoan's hand, and said with a smile: "If your parents hadn't agreed, I wouldn't want to send you back."
Fu Ruo'an's face suddenly turned red.
She succeeded in digging her own grave.
I don't know why she said such words just now. It's so embarrassing.
Seeing Fu Ruoan looking like he wanted to shrink into his seat, Xie Qingran laughed happily.
