After rejecting my celebrity husband novel Chapter 545

Chapter 545: Chapter 549: Clues and Traces [4]

The second aunt took it with a delighted face and, upon opening it, her eyes instantly shone brightly, "You call yourself a layman, but this is top-notch jade, worth quite a bit of money, isn’t it?"

"It’s not that much, just tens of thousands of yuan. I’m glad you like it," Xu Pei said in a casual tone.

"This girl, you really are rolling in it now, so I won’t be holding back then!"

"We’re all family, there’s no need for such formalities." Xu Pei smiled, but the warmth didn’t reach her eyes.

Back when the Leng Family had spoken out, this influential second aunt never gave her the time of day. However, it was only after she had made a name for herself in recent years that they had re-established some contact.

"Speaking of which, does uncle also pay attention to entertainment companies like Emperor View?" She smoothly steered the conversation towards Emperor View.

"I didn’t pay much attention before, but recently there was a case that came up," Xu Shichang mentioned casually.

Xu Pei pretended to be surprised, "You mean, it couldn’t be the case related to our singer Luo Xiaoqian, could it?"

"You know about Luo Xiaoqian?"

"I am the producer of her new album, of course I know." Xu Pei feigned composure, "About that case, are there any leads yet?"

Hearing her familiarity with Luo Xiaoqian and Emperor View, Xu Shichang didn’t think much of it, "We’ve continually lacked evidence and haven’t made much progress. I’ve delegated the specifics to my subordinates. But since it involves the Leng Family, if we can’t clear this up, it’s going to be difficult for me. Xiao Pei, you’re close with Zimo and the others, so help me put in a good word later on."

Upon hearing this, Xu Pei’s anxiety eased significantly, and her smile brightened, "Of course, no problem. Why all this formality among family!"

After finding out what she wanted to know, Xu Pei exchanged a few more pleasantries with them before finding an excuse to leave the Xu Family.
