Chapter 1721 The Origin of the Brooch

"You people have used my medicine for free for so long. It's time you compensate me for it," Qiao Mei said with a smile.

"Haven't we already given you a brooch and a photo the last time?" Liang Lan said.

Qiao Mei nodded and continued, "True. That can be counted. I have brought two bottles of medicinal wine this time round. The brooch is part of a set. My condition is that I want to know where the rest of the jewelry is?"

As soon as Qiao Mei finished speaking, Liang Shu's face was filled with fear. She widened her eyes and looked at Qiao Mei, as if she was wondering how Qiao Mei knew that this brooch was part of a set.

Such a brooch was definitely not something that an ordinary family could afford. Prominent families were very particular about using things which came in pairs or in a set. From this, Qiao Mei deduced that there was actually a whole set of jewelry.

However, there was also another reason. When Qiao Mei tried to make use of the butterfly mark on her chest, she realized that she had hit a bottleneck. It was different from Wu Min's pendant. It appeared that she needed to look for some form of external aid to break through this bottleneck.

"It's the only piece! There's nothing else!" Liang Shu said in a panic. novElbIn

"Is that so? It's such a pity that it's actually an isolated piece." Qiao Mei took out a photo and pointed at the person in the middle, asking "I'm guessing that you at least know this person."

Liang Shu shouted at Qiao Mei, "I don't know anything! Get out! I don't know anything!"

"Then where did this person go after that? Do you know?" Qiao Mei asked.

Liang Shu avoided making eye contact and said, "I'm not sure..."

"You'd better think carefully. If I don't get the information I want, I won't give you the medicine," Qiao Mei said seriously.

Liang Shu had no choice but to relate everything that happened back then.

Gao Tao was a transfer student. The moment she saw Gao Tao, she could tell that Gao Tao was not an ordinary person. Later on, she asked around and found out that Gao Tao was actually the daughter of a rich man in Sea City.

The Gao family had many sons and Gao Tao was the only daughter. Everyone doted on her very much and she enjoyed the best treatment and highest status.

Gao Tao used to study at a women's college in Sea City, but later on, her fiancé wanted to go to the capital to further his career. Gao Tao always did what her fiancé wanted and she set off for the capital with her fiancé regardless of what her family thought.

"You said the last time that this brooch belonged to your cousin. Why is Gao Tao wearing the brooch in this photo?" Qiao Mei questioned.

"Maybe... maybe I remembered wrongly..." Liang Shu said nervously.

"In that case, this brooch belongs to Gao Tao, right?" Qiao Mei asked.

"Yes, you're right..." Liang Shu said.
