Chapter: 4793

"Wow, really..." Qian Hongyan couldn't help asking, "Sister Ma'er, how did you get to know such wealthy friends? Their net worth is tens of billions, which is equivalent to hundreds of billions in renminbi!"

Ma'er smiled and said, "I got to know them in the United States. There are many Chinese and overseas Chinese in America, so I met a few investors there."

Qian Hongyan couldn't help but sigh, "Oh dear! You really have to step out to see the world. Sister Ma'er, if you go to the United States, you can meet such wealthy people, opening up your social circle and connections at once!"

"That's true!" Ma'er proudly said, "As they say, people move upwards, water flows downwards. In the future, I'll definitely have to get out more and see the world."

Qian Hongyan was flattering, saying, "Sister Ma'er is right! The gap between us is getting bigger and bigger..."

As she spoke, Qian Hongyan changed the topic and hurriedly asked, "Hey, sister Ma'er, after you return, can you take me to watch Chow Tai Fook sometime? You promised me that when you bought the Baoqi, didn't you, and wanted to get me a Chow Tai Fook necklace?"

Ma'er chuckled slightly, knowing Qian Hongyan would definitely bring this up.

She even knew that Qian Hongyan had sent her a video message, which was actually for just one purpose.

So she spoke carelessly, "Hey, don't worry, I'll make sure to do what I promised."

Thinking about this, she suddenly realized that she didn't even need to wait until she returned to Jinling to sell it. She had made up her mind and then told Mei Hongyan very confidently: "Okay, Mei Hongyan, you don't have to wait for me to return to Jinling before I take you to see it. This time I'm going to the Pearl Island, and I'll directly buy a necklace at Zhoudafu's store and bring one back."

Mei Hongyan listened to this and immediately got excited saying: "Really? That would be too good! I'm really grateful to you, Ma'er sister!"

Ma'er let out a chuckle and said: "Alright, there's nothing else for me to do. I'll hang up first and rest for a bit before boarding the plane."

Mei Hongyan thanked her with great enthusiasm and hung up the video call. Ma'er locked her phone and muttered under her breath: "Mei Hongyan, Mei Hongyan, you've been thinking about this Zhoudafu necklace for such a long time. You really are not very clever!"

She was still grumbling to herself when suddenly several American police officers with different skin tones and armed with rifles rushed into the VIP rest area.

One Chinese-American female officer surveyed the room before quickly zeroing in on Ma'er and then walking up to her face, asking coldly: "You're Ma'er?"

Ma'er was taken aback by the sudden arrival of the police.

The female police officer continued to ask, "Let's get your personal information straight. You're Ma'er from Hua Xia Jin Ling, and this time you'll be taking China Eastern Airlines flight CX845 from New York to Hong Kong, right?"

"Yes......" Ma'er was even more puzzled, unsure of what to say: "Is there something wrong with my flight?"

The female police officer spoke coldly: "There's nothing wrong with the flight, but your luggage has a problem! Please follow us and assist in the investigation."

Ma'er hastily said: "What could be wrong with my luggage? Besides personal belongings, it only contains some New York specialties. I didn't put anything like lithium batteries or other hazardous materials inside......"

The female police officer gave a cold snort: "Don't make frivolous denials here. There are other passengers, and to avoid affecting their journey, please follow me willingly."

As she spoke, she pulled out handcuffs from her waistband and warned: "Listen carefully to what I'm saying. You have the right to remain silent; anything you say may be used as evidence against you in a court of law. You also have the right to request a lawyer be present during your trial, or we can appoint one for you if you cannot afford one. Do you understand these rights?"

Ma'er suddenly panicked and loudly shouted: "What are you doing?! I'm a VIP passenger! Who gives you the nerve to come after me here? And what law have I broken?!"

The female police officer spoke coldly again: "Ma'er, as an ethnic Chinese person, I'm warning you. This is America! Here, you should not attempt any form of resistance; otherwise, you'll definitely be the one who suffers the consequences."

Ma'er said angrily: "You're just messing with me! Old lady sits upright and walks straight! I won't be afraid to walk away from you cops, no matter where it is – whether it's America or the United Nations!" JrNovels.com
